Originally, everyone wanted the little girl to demonstrate what functions her phone had, but she refused. "In at most a month, this phone will be available for purchase. What’s the point of showing you now? There’s nothing fresh about it," she said.
The little girl was adorable, and even though she was saying no, it was hard for those around her to feel any negativity. This is how reality works; exceptional people often exist only in novels, while in real life, reasonable individuals make up the vast majority.
Moreover, the items that were lost could be recovered thanks to the alerts from the little girl's phone. In some ways, this little girl was their benefactor; they couldn’t really pressure her.
That said, although they hadn’t seen other features of the phone yet, just the Virtual Avatar and the Alert Function were already impressive enough to stir excitement.
Now that everyone’s lives were better, with money in hand, they no longer felt as frugal as before. Many had secretly decided that when this phone was released, they would definitely buy it.
Due to the recent theft incident, no one felt sleepy anymore. The next few hours were spent in hushed conversations, and they couldn’t fall back asleep.
Because of that earlier call of "Xiao Ai," this girl named Lin Yao Yao had taken Pan Yi as a friend, sharing her snacks with him while chatting and quickly building a bond.
"Is your cousin named Ji Yuan?"
Pan Yi hesitated for a moment but still voiced his curiosity.
Lin Yao Yao's eyes widened as she blinked, "Do you know my cousin? Or are you classmates with him?"
It seemed that Lin Yao Yao had opened up, chattering away like a lark.
"My cousin is really impressive. You're a science student, right? My cousin is also a science student."
"My cousin is really good-looking, just like a celebrity."
"My cousin cares about me a lot; he's a good person, just like you."
She faintly sensed a similarity between Pan Yi and her cousin, an indescribable feeling.
Pan Yi, who had been unexpectedly labeled as a good person, was left speechless.
To be honest, most of the female friends Pan Yi knew were either quiet and reserved or spoke very little. Meeting someone like Lin Yao Yao was a first for him.
However, despite her chatter, the girl was not annoying. He could feel her endless energy; she was like a little sun, quite endearing.
Subtly, he found himself developing quite an affection for this girl.
"I'm not an alumnus; I'm from the University of Science and Technology, so I guess I'm more like a fan of his," Pan Yi hurriedly explained.
The initial connection was made through Bilibili, and then it progressed to the National Robot Competition, followed by various updates about Ji Yuan, as if a large hand was deliberately obscuring everything.
He harbored a vague suspicion in his heart, along with a deep sense of envy. As for the similar aura that Lin Yao Yao felt... well, it was probably the unique single vibe that belonged to 'research dogs'...
The two chatted for most of the night, growing much closer.
Around nine in the morning, Lin Yao Yao said she needed to report her itinerary to her cousin, and Pan Yi immediately leaned in closer.
When the WeChat video call connected, the first thing that came into view was a large house. The various decorations in the room conveyed a sense of luxury.
"What's up, Yao Yao? Have you arrived at the station?" Ji Yuan's handsome face, which could be described as exquisite, appeared on the screen. He looked lazy, his fair skin resembling a piece of warm white jade, as if he had just woken up.
Recently, he had been overwhelmed with work, but now that he had finally sorted everything out, he could finally take a break.
