Chapter 497: Chen Chen's friends are coming
"Apologize to him, is this the prize you asked for? You competed with me for such a long time just to get this?" Zhou Liqian was so angry that he almost laughed.
Chen Chen blinked and said, "Who would compete with you for so long? I just spent a few minutes to memorize some things casually. What is there to compete with?"
"You were so rude to others, shouldn't you apologize? Look at you, you can't recite pi better than me, you can't recite poetry better than me, I believe you can't even play chess better than me, and you don't get as high scores as me in the exams, but did I say you are stupid?
What does rote memorization have to do with intelligence? You are much older than him, shouldn't you be better than him? What is there to be proud of? "
Chenchen originally didn't intend to care, but he really liked the little fat boy so much that he inexplicably imagined how sad he would be if someone said that to Fatty.
Chen Zigui stood beside Chen Chen and said slowly, "Chen Chen, I am older than you, but I can't compare with you in anything. And you never say I am stupid. You are so nice."
Chen Chen: “…” I have never met anyone smarter than me, why should I say that?
Oh, except my dad.
Chenchen was very sad because he couldn't beat his father.
"Chen, Chen Zigui?" Zhou Liqian and Chen Zigui lived in the same compound. Zhou Liqian was a famous child prodigy in their compound, but he was very arrogant and didn't like to talk to people. He never played with them.
Chen Zigui's parents are very capable, and his grandparents, uncles, aunts... their whole family is very capable, and everyone in the compound knows it.
The phrase Zhou Liqian's parents often told him since he was a child was: "Don't provoke Chen Zigui. We can't afford to offend him."
So no one in the entire compound dared to mess with Chen Zigui.
Chen Zigui frowned: "Do you know me?"
Zhou Liqian: "We live in the same compound and have met each other many times."
Chen Zigui shook his head: "I don't know you. Even if you knew me, you still have to apologize."
Zhou Liqian took a deep breath and bowed to the little fat kid: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you."
"Plop" the chocolate that Chenchen gave to the little fat kid fell to the ground.
The little fat kid was heartbroken and quickly squatted down to pick it up, but it was all dirty.
Chen Zigui took another chocolate and gave it to the little fat kid: "Don't eat that one, eat this one."
The little fat kid then smiled and said, "Thank you, brother!"
Chen Zigui touched the little fat kid's head and said, "You're welcome. Go play."
The little fat kid thanked Brother Chenchen again before jumping away, without saying whether he forgave Zhou Liqian or not.
"Let's go, let's go play basketball." Chen Zigui pulled Chen Chen over.
Chenchen shook his head and said, "No, have you forgotten that today is Friday? I want to go to see my dad with my mom."
Chen Zigui forgot.
Since the weather got warmer, Su Taotao would bring Chen Chen to the institute to visit Fu Zhengtu every Friday, and usually stay overnight in his dormitory.
On Saturday morning, Su Taotao was sleepy, so Fu Zhengtu took Chen Chen for a run, then took him to have breakfast, and then took him back to the laboratory to do free labor.
Chenchen is very sensitive to numbers, so Fu Zhengtu often asks him to help proofread the data. Sometimes there are small problems with the data and no one in Fu Zhengtu's team can find it, but Chenchen can always find it accurately.
Chen Chen is also interested in scientific research.
When Fu Zhengtu is free, he will take him to do some small experiments.
Some simple tasks will also be assigned to Chenchen.
The children have good concentration and smart brains, so they never make mistakes and always complete the tasks very well.
Fu Zhengtu's team members often joked that Chen Chen was a non-staff member of their laboratory and asked their leader to pay him a salary.
As a result, Chenchen often received food from the uncles and became the darling of Fu Zhengtu's laboratory.
Even Fu Zhengtu's superiors told Fu Zhengtu, intentionally or unintentionally, that Chen Chen was a rare and good talent, and asked Fu Zhengtu to train him well and have him take over their job in the future.
Fu Zhengtu just laughed it off.
Chenchen is still young, and Fu Zhengtu will not easily decide his child's career direction until he finds what he is most interested in.
This line of work is great, but also very hard and requires a lot of sacrifice.
There are many comrades in the R&D team who are working on absolutely confidential parts. It is normal for them not to see outsiders for several years or even dozens of years, and they cannot even see their spouses or family members.
"Strive for scientific research all your life" is not a slogan or a slogan, but a statement of events.
Doing this job requires absolute determination and perseverance.
It’s not that there is no dust, but he is really too young.
On Saturday afternoons, Fu Zhengtu usually gets off work a little early. The family of three sometimes goes straight home, and sometimes goes out for a walk, climbs a mountain, or something like that, to have a short vacation.
No matter how busy Su Taotao and Fu Zhengtu are, they will always squeeze out time to accompany Chenchen like squeezing cotton.
So even though they are very busy this semester and don't live together every day, Chenchen doesn't feel at all that his parents spend less time with him.
Chen Chen made a friend named Chen Zigui, and found a few like-minded friends to form a basketball team. He would occasionally play friendly games with his uncle and his friends.
He also takes time to stay in the store and join in the fun, and his days are particularly fulfilling.
Chenchen really likes the bustling atmosphere in the store. He especially likes helping grandma collect the cash, chatting with the customers coming and going, and giving them change when he is happy.
If you meet a child you particularly like, give him or her coconut candy or a thousand paper cranes as a gift.
While keeping accounts, I counted the small coins in the drawer, calculated the daily income and expenses, and told my mother how much money I earned that day when she came home for dinner.
Fu Yuanhang also spends most of his spare time in the store helping out.
Su Taotao would always let them play or do what they were interested in.
But the uncle and nephew like staying in the store now.
Chenchen helped to collect the money, Fu Yuanhang helped to wait in the hall, and Su Taotao would work part-time for them to earn some pocket money for herself.
Bai Hua knew that Su Taotao had opened a restaurant, and would bring her classmates to support her on weekends.
She was a very active person and after eating she would stay in the store to help wait on the table.
Su Taotao offered her wages, but she refused, saying that it was enough for two meals. If she calculated carefully, the money she earned from working part-time was not enough for two meals in the store. She was well earned.
Su Taotao didn't force her.
Bai Hua's looks were meant to be a star on the big screen. She was bright and generous, and her smile was enough to captivate the whole city. Especially after she went to college and gained more experience, the already confident person became even more charming.
Needless to say, Fu Yuanhang's appearance and stature are one in a million. He has been introverted since he was a child and has a very stable mood. After high school, he became even more stable and has a bit of the demeanor of a general.
It forms a sharp contrast with the passionate and unrestrained white birch, but it does not feel out of place at all.
They place orders and serve dishes, their busy and light figures shuttling between the quiet scenery, which is very pleasing to the eyes of the customers. They all say that the people and the restaurant in Su Taotao complement each other and are both very aesthetic.
Apart from the regular elementary school classes every day of the week, Chen Chen spends most of his time with his uncle and attends classes with him.
The classmates on Fu Yuanhang's flight no longer treated Chenchen as Fu Yuanhang's nephew, but as their classmate.
To be more precise, he is a genius student with excellent grades and who always gives standard answers to questions.
Sometimes when they encountered problems they didn't understand and Fu Yuanhang happened to be away, they would go and ask Chen Chen.
This led to a particularly strange phenomenon in Senior 1 (1) Class.
When people from other classes passed by Grade 1(1), they would always see a bunch of teenagers surrounding a half-grown child, chattering and asking questions. The key point was that they didn’t feel embarrassed at all.
Chen Chen also had no awareness that he was still an elementary school student. If a classmate happened to ask him about something beyond the syllabus that he had not yet learned, he would flip through the book and look at the example questions. After a while, he could explain the problem to the other person without any pause.
Even the teacher who passed by and saw it exclaimed it was magical.
When the teacher found out that Chenchen was only eight years old and still a primary school student, he held his forehead and walked away silently. He felt ashamed that he had eaten so many extra years of rice in vain.
Teachers of some subjects often forget that Chen Chen is an auditor who comes here to make some noise. When they ask a difficult question and no one raises their hand to answer, or when someone is called on but cannot answer, the teacher will start calling on Chen Chen.
Then he pointed at his classmates and said, "Look at you, you are not even as good as an eight-year-old elementary school student, and you still have the nerve to say that you are high school students."
Only at this time will the innocent dust attract hatred.
What to do?
Of course, it was the face that was lost in the classroom, and it was redeemed on the basketball court.
No matter how smart Chen Chen is, or how much taller he is than his peers, he is still at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength and height when facing high school students.
Every time he was beaten and cried loudly, he asked his uncle for help.
As the top of the food chain on the basketball court, Fu Yuanhang is always accurate in shooting, whether it is a three-pointer or a rebound. Once the ball is in his hands, there is only one fate, which is to pass through the center of the basketball hoop and fall to the ground.
This uncle and nephew have always been very popular in terms of appearance, academic performance, and on the basketball court.
Some came to peek during breaks, some met them by chance, some forgot to look at the road and bumped into trees... It's almost a semester now, and all kinds of situations are still emerging.
Especially after Fu Yuanhang had Chen Chen as his little tail, the rate of people turning their heads back was absolutely 100%.
When it comes to the final exams, Chenchen is very busy. He just finished his elementary school exam today, and in two days he will have to take his high school exam.
Even the old principal found it particularly interesting.
Ask him if he wants to skip junior high school and go directly to high school.
Chenchen said no, he had to go to junior high school for another year after graduating from primary school because he wanted to get a junior high school diploma.
Time passed quickly, and it seemed like in the blink of an eye, Chenchen graduated from elementary school.
On the day when Chenchen finished his final exam in the first year of high school, his uncle received a call from Uncle Mumu, saying that he and Uncle Kangzi would come to the capital to visit them during the summer vacation!
Not only do they come by themselves, they also want to bring Dongdong and Pangpang along!
Chenchen was so happy when he heard the news. After such a long time, he was finally going to see his long-cherished friend!
