Chapter 118 – Reviewing Xiaomi’s Smartphone (2)
After dinner, Chen Yu sat on the living room’s sofa. As he watched his three little sisters playing around with the dog, he felt as if he was being left out.
In the past, whenever the Chen family’s “four young masters” got together, he would always be the most favored person. Now, however, a dog had stolen his spotlight.
“Hah… Childhood friends can never best those that appear out of nowhere…”
Sighing, Chen Yu leaned back and plunged his body into the sofa. Raising his watch, he visited the Transdimensional Store.
He had yet to take a look at the latest updated products. He just so happened to be hosting a livestream later tonight, so he might as well check if he could get anything useful with his current points.
After reading through the list of products, Chen Yu’s complexion suddenly darkened.
I freaking knew it! I’m definitely being monitored!
[5. Special Omega-3 Concentrated Lipids: Produced by the Aggressive Cat Pet Products Company in the year 2145. This product is administered orally into the pet’s body. When administered, for 12 weeks, the affected pet will have its brain’s neuron transmission efficiency and information processing ability continuously improved. The oxygen consumption of brain cells will also be enhanced. As these improvements will place a burden on the pet’s ability to supply oxygen to its body, please avoid using this product on aging pets. The selling price is 13 points.]
Standing up, Chen Yu paced around the sofa twice in a fit of rage. He then pulled out his phone and quickly typed out a message.
However, before he could send his “You there?” message to the Transdimensional Marketing Company’s staff, the other party sent him a series of messages.
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Mr. Chen, please don’t ask if I’m here or not. I am always here. We are not monitoring you. It is normal for you to see the products you currently need in the Transdimensional Store because the watch terminal you are wearing has a built-in brainwave receiver.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “In other words, the Transdimensional Store will only recommend products that you have thought about in your mind. This is also the reason why the Transdimensional Store will sometimes recommend strange products to you. It is because the thoughts in your mind are strange!”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Considering your understanding, I will give you a simpler example. For example, suppose you squat in the bathroom and run out of paper. In that case, the Transdimensional Store will likely recommend toilet paper as a product for you. This is because your mind is completely occupied with the thought of toilet paper at the moment. Mr. Chen, do you understand now?”]
Chen Yu: “…”
[Chen Yu: “How did you know what I was going to say?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “It is because I live in a timeline ahead of yours. I know what you will say, so I’ve chosen to explain it clearly to you in advance. Please stop asking if I’m here or not.”]
[Chen Yu: “Understood. You really are an excellent salesperson with a friendly and dutiful attitude.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Thank you. Mr. Chen, you are also an outstanding and considerate partner.”]
Exiting WeChat and turning off his phone, Chen Yu stared at the four other useless products listed on his watch. After silently pondering for a moment, he returned to his room and purchased the Special Omega-3 Concentrated Lipids.
He felt that if he could raise the husky’s intellect, he should have an easier time managing the dog…
[17 points expended (product + tax). Remaining points: 0]
“Dammit! Sure enough, they didn’t leave even a single point for me…”
As the text line flashed by on his watch, a miniature wormhole promptly appeared in the middle of his room. A fist-sized white box then fell out of the wormhole.
Thud.
After waiting for the wormhole to disappear, Chen Yu promptly moved forward and picked up the box.
Upon removing the seal and opening the box, Chen Yu discovered that there was only a black oily substance wrapped in sugar paper inside the box. The pungent smell coming from the black substance made Chen Yu nauseous. “What is this damned thing made of? It smells so bad.”
Carrying the concentrated lipids into the living room, Chen Yu hooked his finger at the husky and said, “You, come here.”
The husky, who was currently laying in Chen Yike’s arms, sent a lazy glance at Chen Yu before turning around and pressing its dog mouth against the girl’s chest. It then closed its eyes as it enjoyed the massage the three human females were giving it.
“…Crap. Why do I find you increasingly irritating to the eye?”
Striding forward, Chen Yu grabbed the husky by its mouth and extended the concentrated lipids to the dog, saying, “Eat.’
“Awoo…”
After giving the black substance a sniff, the husky promptly pursed its mouth.
“Brother, what are you holding? It smells,” Chen Erke said while covering her nose in disgust.
“Jinkela,” Chen Yu answered perfunctorily. Ignoring his three little sisters’ attempts to stop him, he pried open the husky’s mouth and tossed the concentrated lipids into it.[1]
“Awoo!” Upon swallowing the oily lipids, the husky howled like a frightened pig waiting to be slaughtered.
“Brother! What did you do? Doggies can’t just eat anything!” Chen Yike said as she stroked the dog’s fur in distress.
“You’re not allowed to bully it!” Chen Erke spread out her arms and shielded the husky from Chen Yu. “Go away!”
Tilting her head, Chen Sanke sniffed at the surrounding air and asked, “Big Brother, did you feed manure to Pikachu?”
“…”
Chen Yu did not know how he should answer this question. After pondering for some time, he loudly clapped his hands.
Clap, clap, clap!
“It’s almost nine o’clock. Time to sleep. All of you scram back to your beds. You still have school tomorrow. Give me the dog.”
“No!” Chen Yike flatly refused.
“I’m not sleeping! I want to pet the dog!” Chen Erke said as she reached out with both hands and fervently rubbed the husky’s fur.
“No can do.” Pulling on Chen Yike’s ponytail, Chen Yu said, “Hurry up and go to sleep.”
“Brother! It hurts! Let me go! I won’t sleep!” Chen Yike struggled. “You just want to secretly bully Pikachu!”
“If you’re not obedient, I won’t give you any more pocket money.” Chen Yu used his trump card.
Chen Yike became stunned as she suddenly lost her power to “resist.”
“I won’t be buying dog food for you. If you don’t have pocket money, let’s see how the husky will starve to death.”
“Brother, do you only know how to manipulate me using money?”
“Just say whether you want your pocket money or not.”
“I want it.”
“Then go to sleep!”
“Okay.”
Standing up, Chen Yike caressed the husky for one last time before reluctantly returning to her room.
“Also, you, Second Eldest, stop touching the dog. Go wash your hands and sleep.”
“I’ll touch it just one last time! Just one touch!” Chen Erke said while pitifully looking at Chen Yu, her hands still caressing the husky non-stop.
“No! Go wash your hands!”
Chen Yu dragged Chen Erke to the bathroom without hesitation. After returning to the living room, he looked at Chen Sanke and said, “You, what will you do?”
After taking a glance at the husky, Chen Sanke looked up at Chen Yu and said, “M-Mommy and daddy aren’t home. I’m too scared to fall asleep. C-Can I sleep together with Big Brother?”
“You want to sleep with the dog, right?!” Chen Yu immediately saw through Chen Sanke’s ploy.
Widening her eyes, Chen Sanke shifted her gaze between Chen Yu and the husky before nodding, “Mhm!”
“Rejected. Sleep with your eldest sister.”
“Nn…” Suddenly, Chen Sanke lifted up her shirt and revealed her white and tender belly, saying, “I can let Big Brother s-squeeze my tummy! It’s fat and soft. Mommy and daddy like to squeeze it very much!”
Chen Yu could not help but be taken aback by Chen Sanke’s proposal. For a moment, a struggling expression appeared on his face.
Pat, pat!
Patting her belly, Chen Sanke asked, “Don’t you want to pinch it?”
“…”
“It’s soft and fat.”
“…”
“You can pinch it if we sleep together!”
“…I…” Just as Chen Yu was about to lose his mind to temptation, he suddenly recalled that he had a livestream to host tonight. In the end, he could only reluctantly refuse, “No! Go to sleep!”
“I failed…” Lowering her head in disappointment, Chen Sanke turned around and left.
“Dammit. She already knows how to bewitch people at such a young age.”
After dragging the howling husky back to his room, Chen Yu pulled out his phone and took a look at the time.
It was currently 8:43 PM.
There were only a little more than a dozen minutes left before his livestream began.
“Little Peach, change your clothes. We’re leaving.”
“Yes, sir!”
Hopping off her chair, Little Peach took out the haori, cheongsam, masks, gloves, and other necessary tools.
After casually tossing the husky onto the floor, Chen Yu got dressed up together with Little Peach and approached the Interstellar Portal.
“Mr. Chen, where will we be livestreaming today?”
“Let’s not go to the wilds anymore.” Toying around with the small box in his hand, Chen Yu put on his opera mask and said, “Let’s go to a place that matches the product’s brand.”
“Where?”
“Xiaomi’s Science and Technology Park…”
