Meng Chuyue accompanied Tong Wen and Xia Ping until the store closed at eight. After sending them off and going upstairs, Meng realized it had only been a little more than half an hour, and Shen Ci had already completed six pages of math and was now working on physics.
While secretly criticizing that he might be biased towards science, she took out a red pen to mark his work.
After correcting the first page and finding everything correct, she was surprised to flip to the back to check the major questions, and, heavens, those were all correct too.
Suddenly feeling an impulse, she tossed aside the pen and just browsed through.
After finishing, she asked Shen Ci with excitement, "Are your grades always this good? Ah, I worried for nothing. No, you don’t have a biased focus in subjects, do you?"
Shen Ci slightly curved his lips, "You wouldn’t believe me if I said I’m balanced, would you? But why don’t you wait till I’ve finished all the papers? Since I did well in math, don’t you think you, as a teacher, should give me some reward?"
Meng Chuyue thought to herself that she believed him, why wouldn’t she? There was no point in him lying.
She gave him a disdainful look and chuckled, "What reward would you like?"
Shen Ci’s eyes dropped slightly, hiding the slight turmoil within. He had spoken on impulse and hadn’t really thought about what he wanted.
But whatever her reward was, he knew he would like it.
He pretended to ponder fruitlessly, "You’re the teacher, you decide the reward."
"Alright, I’ll think about it while I prepare some fruit. I’ll get back to you in a bit," Meng Chuyue said as she walked to the kitchen on this floor.
After preparing a fruit platter, just as Shen Ci finished the physics paper, Meng Chuyue observed while eating and found everything correct again.
She wondered deeply, "How can Shen Ci, the master, have such good academic performance? Why didn’t he go to college in his previous life?"
She really wanted to ask, but unfortunately, she couldn’t.
When Shen Ci finished eating the fruit and washed his hands, Meng Chuyue went back to her bedroom and took out two slim recording pens for him.
"Guess what this is?"
"A pen?" Shen Ci wondered as he took it, "If it is, I can tell you that I really style."
He genuinely liked it; the two pens looked very textured and expensive.
Meng Chuyue smiled radiantly, "It’s not just any pen. Take a closer look, what is it really?"
After Shen Ci fiddled with it for a while, he honestly admitted, "I can’t tell."
Meng Chuyue smiled slightly and pulled out another, "Watch my operation closely."
After pressing it a few times, Shen Ci heard her crisp voice from the pen, "Guess what this is?"
Then came his own magnetically pleasing voice, "A pen? If it is, I can tell you..."
Shen Ci’s eyelids twitched slightly, excited, "A recording pen? You actually have recording pens?"
He had heard from Long Yue not long ago that compact, useful recording pens were already on sale overseas, though they were prohibitively expensive and hard to get.
He hadn’t expected that Meng Chuyue would have three or possibly more.
After Meng Chuyue nodded lightly, he pursed his lips, "Can I ask where you got them?"
Meng Chuyue covered her lips and laughed, "Our boss arranged them for me originally to deal with Lin Fangwei and the Meng Family. There are four in total; I’ll give you two."
Shen Ci, "How much is one? Can you help me buy some more?"
The type of recording pens she presented, which were pen-shaped, would cost over two hundred bucks each in the future, but as for now...it was really hard to set a price.
As for getting more for Shen Ci?
She had dozens more in her space, along with eavesdroppers, cameras...
Why did she buy so many of these gadgets?
Because in her past life, being physically weak, she lacked a sense of security and liked to collect anything that could protect her and help her retaliate against harm.
Her space had not only many recording pens and eavesdroppers for collecting evidence, but also police batons, stun guns, anti-wolf spray, anti-wolf devices...
