Walking along the road, Chen Mu's mind was filled with thoughts of making money.
But that clearly wasn't his specialty. After pondering it for a long time and scratching his head countless times, he still hadn't come up with any feasible plan.
Would he really have to interrupt the experiment?
Chen Mu sighed regretfully to himself, thinking that it would be great if Copper were there. With his clever mind, it wouldn't be hard to find a new way to make money.
Ya Ya was having a headache just then, since her shuttle car had broken down.
She was wearing a brightly colored T-shirt.
Beneath her extremely short jeans was a pair of long white legs that would suffocate a person's breath.
She was tall, with a delicate face, and had long been the object of countless people's admiration.
At that moment, she was helplessly leaning against the latest model of her Silver Star shuttle car. Every passerby couldn't help but turn their heads three times.
Suddenly, Ya Ya's eyes lit up as she saw someone.
Chen Mu was walking slowly toward her.
"Yao Ke, Yao Ke!" Ya Ya quickly waved her hands, jumping up and shouting.
Chen Mu's thoughts were interrupted, and he raised his head to see Ya Ya waving at him desperately.
He only glanced at her and then decided to keep going.
The relationship between him and Ya Ya couldn't be considered friendly. On the contrary, there seemed to be a little knot in it.
Seeing that Chen Mu was going to ignore her and leave, Ya Ya rushed over to him in a hurry.
Her movements were exactly the same as last time, with her legs apart and her hands open to block Chen Mu's way.
"What's the matter?" Chen Mu's question was also extremely strange, exactly the same as last time.
"My shuttle car is broken. Can you help me repair it?" Ya Ya had a pleading look on her face, "Otherwise I won't be able to go to school."
Half of Ya Ya's appearance was faked.
She didn't really care if she went to school or not.
Her family was well-off, and she didn't need to put any hard work into card making, so she didn't really care about going to school.
Ever since she and Chen Mu had become enemies, she had always felt a little apologetic.
Chen Mu's display of ruthlessness and decisiveness had left a deep impression on her.
She had also discovered that Chen Mu was the most hardworking and diligent person in the class, which was a strong contrast to the image of the upstart she had seen at the beginning.
Among a bunch of trash whose life goals were to eat, drink, and be merry, there was such a silent and hardworking person. That feeling was very strange.
She had always wanted to find an opportunity to strike up a conversation with Chen Mu, but Chen Mu would immediately disappear after class and rarely speak at school.
Today, she had finally found an opportunity. She was secretly delighted, and the pleading expression on her face deepened.
Ya Ya was very tall, even taller than Chen Mu.
When the two of them stood together, Chen Mu immediately became cow dung under fresh flowers, making Ya Ya look all the more tender and beautiful.
The contrast of those snow-white legs against Chen Mu's sickly yellow skin was simply exuding a deadly temptation.
Shuttle cars?
Chen Mu took a look at Ya Ya's silver star and suddenly thought of Copper, who had been talking about buying a shuttle car.
"I don't know how to fix it," Chen Mu answered honestly.
Not to mention a high-end shuttle car like the Silver Star, even the number of times he had sat in a public shuttle car could be counted on one hand.
"Help me take a look. I really don't know what to do!" Ya Ya's big eyes looked like they were about to cry.
She didn't care whether or not Chen Mu knew how to fix it, but she wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get closer to him.
She was a little curious about that person.
"If you break it, I won't pay for it." Chen Mu said after thinking it over.
Ya Ya's face immediately looked like a sunny day after the rain. The tears that had just been welling up and the worry on her face had disappeared, and she hurriedly nodded, "No problem, no problem."
The failure rate of the shuttle cars had always been a problem, which was why most people with some power were more willing to learn to operate the jet-stream card.
The core technology of the shuttle car was the jet-stream card, which used the powerful airflow produced by the jet-stream card as a driving force, supplemented by a more suitable external structure for flight, so it could fly.
But as a mature means of transportation, there were still many things that weren't satisfactory.
For example, the jet-stream card at its core wasn't hard because of the material it was made of.
But the airflow it produced was very powerful, which is to say that the thrust it produced was very powerful.
Even though it had already taken a lot of protective measures, its core jet-stream card could still easily be destroyed or damaged by that powerful thrust.
The reason Chen Mu agreed was very simple.
It wasn't easy to have such an opportunity to deeply understand the shuttle car, and it wouldn't matter even if he broke it.
During the time he had been with Copper, Chen Mu had been constantly experimenting with making all kinds of low-grade cards, and he had taken apart quite a few household items like the hot pot and the fresh food cabinet. He didn't seem jerky when he took things apart.
The market price of the Silver Star shuttle car was as high as three million and five hundred thousand, and it was an out-and-out high-end car.
But since his counterpart had said that it wouldn't matter if he broke it, Chen Mu boldly started to take it apart with confidence.
A nice car and a beautiful woman could be seen at a glance to be incomparably noble.
And Chen Mu, who was climbing up and down, looked very much like a repairman.
In the trunk of the shuttle car, there were spare small repair tools, which gave Chen Mu quite a bit of help.
By then, the shuttle car had already been torn apart by Chen Mu, and he was holding in his hand the jet-stream card that he had taken out of the shuttle car.
The specifications of that jet-stream card were quite a bit larger than ordinary cards, and it was as thick as a finger, looking like a square board when he held it in his hand.
It was a three-star jet-stream card, but it had been modified to a certain extent compared to ordinary jet-stream cards.
Those modifications could make the jet-stream it produced more concentrated, but it had been weakened quite a bit in terms of flexibility.
The problem was with the card, where one of its structures had been damaged.
Only by repairing the jet-stream card, or by replacing it with a completely new jet-stream card, could the shuttle car take off again.
When the problem returned to the card, Chen Mu had some confidence.
"This jet-stream card is damaged.
I can repair it, but you'll need to pay me. "Chen Mu looked at Ya Ya and said calmly.
Pay?
Ya Ya wondered if she had heard wrong, since it was the first time she had encountered someone who had helped her asking for payment.
"I only have thirty thousand Oudi on me." She answered a little hesitantly, still not having completely reacted.
"Then thirty thousand Oudi."
"Oh." Ya Ya nodded a little blankly.
The composition of a three-star jet-stream card was a little complicated for Chen Mu, and repairing the card required a higher level of skill.
But he didn't know if it was because of the stimulation of money, but it was as if he had divine help that day, and he had very easily repaired the three-star jet-stream card.
He didn't repair it according to the original composition of the card, but made some minor changes.
Having repaired the jet-stream card, Chen Mu reassembled the shuttle car as it had been.
Ya Ya started the shuttle car skeptically, never having thought it would be repaired.
"Here you go."
Ya Ya very straightforwardly paid the thirty thousand Oudi, although Chen Mu's behavior in asking for payment made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Ya Ya started the shuttle car and swaggered off, not calling out to Chen Mu at all.
She had been a little interested in Chen Mu, but because of his behavior in asking for payment, her impression of him had taken a big hit.
Not paying any attention to Ya Ya, Chen Mu was very happy with the thirty thousand Oudi.
Although thirty thousand Oudi wasn't much, it could slightly alleviate his financial crisis.
He hadn't thought there was anything wrong with his behavior in asking for payment. As far as he was concerned, it was nothing more than a normal thing, with nothing to question about it.
What really made him happy wasn't the thirty thousand Oudi, but rather that the matter that day had given him a completely new way out.
Back at school, the more Ya Ya thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. He had actually come to ask for payment for helping out a classmate. That person's character was really terrible!
How could she have appreciated such a person some time ago?
So, when she saw Chen Mu walking into the classroom, and especially when she saw the gem-studded women's apparatus on his hand, and then thought about that day's thirty thousand Oudi, her feelings of disdain deepened.
It wasn't like he didn't have any money, but he was still being so calculative.
What infuriated her even more was that Chen Mu didn't even look at her when he walked into the classroom, as though nothing had happened that morning.
For Chen Mu, the matter was already over, and time was precious, and he couldn't waste it.
He was attentively listening to the teacher's lecture, with a thoughtful expression flashing in his eyes from time to time.
Those few months had really been very important to him.
The structure of his knowledge had already gradually become systematic, and some of the principles set forth in that mysterious card had allowed him to view existing knowledge with a higher standard.
Without realizing it, his understanding of card making had already undergone earth-shattering changes.
Chen Mu, who was wholeheartedly focused on his studies, wasn't aware of any of that.
Ya Ya was looking at Chen Mu in a daze, not understanding.
In front of her, Yao Ke's face was focused, emitting a kind of indescribable charm.
She seemed to be able to feel a kind of power from Chen Mu, a kind of upward, positive power!
The contrast between that and the profligate man from that morning was too strong.
"Are you thinking of love, little girl?" Sister Feng prodded Ya Ya with a teasing look.
Ya Ya rolled her eyes, "What nonsense are you talking about?
Is this upstart worth this girl's affection? "
She rolled her eyes so flirtatiously that she nearly hooked the souls of the boys who were secretly watching her.
Sister Feng chuckled, "You've obviously been looking at him all morning."
"I just find it strange that I can't see through this person." Ya Ya told her what had happened that morning in a soft voice.
It wasn't until Ya Ya finished speaking that she found Sister Feng looking at her with a strange expression.
She was a little puzzled, "What's the matter, looking at me like that?"
Sister Feng sighed, "Don't play with fire. Just play with men, and don't get emotional. Otherwise..."
"You're really strange today, Sister Feng!"
The two of them started to joke around, and their conversation quickly drifted elsewhere.
Once class was over, Sister Feng snatched Ya Ya's shuttle car key and threw out the words, "Ha! Let me use the shuttle car today." Before she had finished speaking, she had already disappeared.
