Chapter 261 Watching Him Go
The Bund.

During the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, this place was the British Concession.

In the old days, it was called "Shiliyangchang", which refers to the variety of architectural styles here, including British classical style, French classical style, Gothic style, Baroque style, East Indian style, and a fusion of Chinese and Western styles.

The mixture of many complex styles has given this foreign land a new title, "International Architecture Expo".

For tourists with a deep understanding of history and culture, taking a walk here is like experiencing a historical change.

Unfortunately, there are too few such tourists.

Lin Miaomiao and Deng Xiaoqi, as native Jiangzhou people, have visited here countless times and are not burdened by the heaviness of history.

Su Mingzhe accompanied the two girls, walking around everywhere.

This time, Su Mingzhexue behaved himself.

When the two girls were shopping again, Su Mingzhe directly left his home address to the clerk.

Have the store clerk deliver your purchases directly to your home.

In this way, Su Mingzhe would feel relaxed and would not need to hang bags all over his body and look embarrassed.

Girls don't go shopping fast, and the sales clerks here on the Bund are very talkative.

It's hard to walk out of a store without ten minutes.

At around five o'clock, the three of them entered a Chinese clothing brand store.

Deng Xiaoqi chose a high-cut blue hollow cheongsam on the recommendation of the store clerk. She compared it to the mirror and was delighted:

"Miao Miao, what do you think of me wearing this cheongsam?"

Deng Xiaoqi is 1.7 meters tall and weighs only 80 kilograms. Her curvy figure is particularly prominent in the cheongsam.

"quite pretty."

Lin Miaomiao was a little envious of Deng Xiaoqi's good figure. She was 1.65 meters tall, a head shorter than Deng Xiaoqi, and weighed more than ten kilograms more.

Moreover, Lin Miaomiao's shoulders are a bit broad and her waist is not thin, so the cheongsam is obviously not well-fitting for her.

Of course, this is just what Lin Miaomiao thinks.

In fact, since last summer vacation, Lin Miaomiao has been practicing with Su Mingzhe. Her physical fitness has been strengthened and her skeleton is slowly changing towards the slender direction of a woman.

Today her body curves are still as beautiful as before. Although not as exaggerated as Deng Xiaoqi's, they are also quite graceful.

"Come on, let's change together."

The two girls went to the fitting room and put on their cheongsams.

Deng Xiaoqi does have a good figure, especially her tall waist and long legs, which make her look even more charming.

Lin Miaomiao is not bad either, except that she wears glasses which don’t match her cheongsam.

Su Mingzhe reached out and took off the glasses on her nose, took a photo, and handed them to Lin Miaomiao to see for herself.

Deng Xiaoqi also praised:
"Miaomiao, you look pretty good in a cheongsam, and you look like a female student in the Republic of China."

"is it?"

Lin Miaomiao was praised by her boyfriend and best friend, so she and Deng Xiaoqi bought a cheongsam without even looking at the price.

The three of them walked and strolled along the way.

After walking for more than three hours, it was almost dark and we hadn't visited many shops.

Su Mingzhe was already a little tired, and when he smelled a fragrant aroma ahead, he quickly suggested:

"Miaomiao, Xiaoqi, there is a night market ahead, let's go have some barbecue."

"Okay, I know a good barbecue place, I'll take you there."

Deng Xiaoqi lived nearby and was familiar with the place, so she took the two of them to a barbecue stall.

The boss is a bald man who looks rather tough, while the boss's wife is a middle-aged woman who still retains her charm.

Their daughter came over with a menu and asked the three of them to order.

Lin Miaomiao ordered the skewers skillfully.

Su Mingzhe ordered a cold beer.

Deng Xiaoqi ordered an iced drink.

Without waiting for the skewers to come up, the three of them drank a cup of wine with edamame and peanuts.

The three of them ate skewers and chatted about all sorts of things.

However, most of the time it was Deng Xiaoqi who talked, talking about family, tutoring, travel and so on.

After entering high school, Lin Miaomiao had Su Mingzhe to help her with her homework and she never attended any tutoring classes.

Deng Xiaoqi was not so lucky. Since elementary school, she had basically spent her weekends and holidays in tutoring classes.

Occasionally, when he had some rest time, his mother Deng Xinhua would take him to watch some singing and dancing shows, hoping to broaden his horizons.

It can be said that Deng Xiaoqi's daily life is far from as glorious as she usually appears.

Lin Miaomiao actually has many secrets in her heart and wants to share them with her best friend.

But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

There's no way. Her secrets are extremely important. If she tells them now, it will shock the world.

The two girls chatted for a while. Perhaps feeling that Su Mingzhe was being ignored, Deng Xiaoqi asked him:

"By the way, Azhe, I heard that the second generation of [Bionic Master] is going to be released?"

“It’s not the second generation, it’s a new series.”

Su Mingzhe said, opened the photo album on his phone, and showed Deng Xiaoqi a picture:
"Last year, we launched three models, namely the basic model, the blazing model, and the wasp model. This year, we launched the ice dragon model, the tiger shark model, and the swordfish model. If you want to play, find some time and ask Miaomiao to play with you."

"it's beautiful!"

Deng Xiaoqi looked at the photo of the new [Bionic Master] and envy appeared in her eyes.

Today, the toys that the rich play with are no longer limited to luxury cars, airplanes, and cruise ships.

[Bionic Master] has become the new favorite of the rich.

The Bionic Master, which has various high-end configurations, has a starting price of more than one million yuan. Foreign speculators have even raised it to as much as three or four million yuan.

Ordinary people really can’t afford it.

This time, the Su Group has accurately positioned [Bionic Master] and created many cool gameplays and various epoch-making sci-fi shapes.

Deng Xiaoqi saw the blue ice dragon model, and another question popped up in her mind:
"Azhe, the new models are out, so are the old models from last year still on sale?"

“It will definitely continue to sell.”

Su Mingzhe said with a smile:
"In the future, [Bionic Master] will have twelve series. We released three series last year. Today we will release three new series, and next year we will release three more new series. When all twelve series are released the year after next, the company will upgrade the system and release the second generation..."

As a typical businessman, Su Mingzhe knows how to get money from customers continuously.

Obviously, we only have three generations of technology, but after such operations, at least [Bionic Master] can have new models for sale in the next twelve years.

"This is the truth of all businessmen being dishonest!"

Lin Miaomiao joked that although she understood the way technology companies stored technology, she still felt a little upset that she couldn't play with the latest models.

Su Mingzhe and Lin Dawei discussed the detailed data of the second and third generations of Bionic Master at home.

Among them, the second generation [Bionic Master] already has the ability to glide and short-term flight.

The third generation of [Bionic Master] is already comparable to the drones currently on the market, and can be remotely controlled to fly.

Imagine when the hospital emergency center is equipped with the third-generation [Bionic Master].

When a patient has an emergency, he or she is placed in the [Bionic Master], started with one click, and automatically sent to the nearest emergency hospital in the air.

This operation can save a lot of time.

In addition to hospitals, there are various other industries that also need these technologies.

The only trouble now is that it is expensive.

Today, the factory price of the first-generation basic model is 500,000.

The second-generation base model is expected to cost around one million.

The third-generation basic model is more expensive, and the factory price may be as high as 1.5 million.

Ordinary people, or even ordinary institutions, may not have the money to purchase the third-generation [Bionic Master].

Unless...Su Group gives them a discount.

After the three of them had dinner, Deng Xiaoqi took the opportunity to invite the two to her home.

They have known each other for more than two years, and Deng Xiaoqi has visited Lin Miaomiao more than a dozen times, but Lin Miaomiao has never come to Deng Xiaoqi's house for a visit.

Deng Xiaoqi led the two of them to her large flat with sea view.

When Lin Miaomiao entered Deng Xiaoqi's house, she was attracted by the huge living room.

"Xiaoqi, your house is too big. Is your family the only one on this floor?"

"Yes."

Although Deng Xiaoqi didn't want to show off, she was still a little happy when she saw the shocked look on her best friend's face.

Walking into the living room, Lin Miaomiao saw the huge French window again and couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise again:

"There are also floor-to-ceiling windows! You can see the Oriental Pearl Tower from your home!"

Deng Xiaoqi was about to share the rest of her home's layout with Lin Miaomiao when she heard her mother Deng Xinhua's voice coming from the bedroom:

"Xiaoqi, are you back?"

"Mom, it's me."

Deng Xiaoqi didn't expect that her mother would come home so early today. After thinking for a while, she said, "I'll bring two friends over to visit us."

"Two friends? A man and a woman?"

Deng Xinhua accompanied a client for drinks yesterday and was quite exhausted. When he woke up this morning, he found that he was not feeling well. He went to the hospital for an IV drip before going home to rest.

"It's my good friends Miaomiao and Azhe."

Deng Xiaoqi gave a brief introduction.

When Deng Xinhua heard that it was Lin Miaomiao and Su Mingzhe, he didn't care that he was a little weak, he quickly changed into more formal clothes and walked out of the bedroom.

Su Mingzhe and Lin Miaomiao had no choice but to greet her.

Deng Xiaoqi found that her mother was a little weak, so she came over and helped her sit on the sofa.

"Mom, why is your face so red? Are you sick?"

"I have a minor cold. I've already had an injection and taken medicine."

After dealing with her daughter for a while, Deng Xinhua cheered up and started chatting with Su Mingzhe.

Today, Su Group has become the leading enterprise in Jiangzhou City, and even a star enterprise in the country.

Having the opportunity to chat with Su Mingzhe is definitely a rare opportunity for a socialite like Deng Xinhua.

It would be even more perfect if we could make an appointment.

What a pity, Su Mingzhe is too young and I am too old.

My daughter's age is quite suitable.

However, Deng Xinhua doesn't want his daughter to follow his old path.

Su Mingzhe was not stupid either. After chatting with Deng Xinhua for a few sentences, he felt that every word she said was utilitarian.

This is very boring.

After chatting for a few words, Su Mingzhe said goodbye to Deng Xinhua without disturbing her rest and took Lin Miaomiao away.

Deng Xinhua couldn't find any words to persuade them to stay, so he could only watch them leave.

For a moment, Deng Xinhua felt a little overwhelmed.

This is like an opportunity that is right in front of you, but you are unable to reach out and grab it, and can only watch it slip away.
