Starting with Proficiency Panel

Chen Chencheng looked innocently: "What bad intentions could a little girl have?"

Li Qing bluntly said, "My friend, you're already twenty-six."

"Heartless!" Chen Chencheng grumbled discontentedly, "I just can't chat with you straight guys."

After thinking for a while, Chen Chencheng took out a notebook from her bag and said, "Actually, I mainly want to know what behaviors a thirty-year-old man like you would have when going shopping with a woman on a holiday. This is very relevant to my research topic."

Li Qing replied expressionlessly, "Boring."

Finishing his words, he turned to leave. Chen Chencheng hurriedly shouted, "Don't you want to learn how to find a girlfriend?"

Li Qing hesitated, thinking that he didn't have much to do tonight anyway, so it wouldn't hurt to relax for a little while. As for meditating, he could just do it after he came back.

Regarding the recognition progress of the Magic Simulation System module, the motherboard had already been fully identified, and it was only 9% short on the memory card to achieve 100% recognition. Then, the most basic system program could operate; logically, that's how it should work...

There was still a heap of preparation work to do, so taking a temporary break could also relieve some tension.

In the end, he ended up walking to her side under Chen Chencheng's slightly amused gaze.

"Let's go."

Along the way, their conversation was casual; Chen Chencheng was quite perceptive, never mentioning her background or certain products but rather proactively inquiring about Li Qing's areas of expertise.

Overall, it made Li Qing feel quite at ease.

"In summary, I know why despite your good qualifications, many men steer clear of you as if you're a viper."

"Why?"

Li Qing succinctly stated, "Your curiosity is too strong, and you are extremely adept at psychology. At the very least, you subconsciously bring your professional habits into your personal life. You constantly scrutinize your partner and use language traps to guide the other person into your snare, paying close attention to their inner thoughts as they answer your questions." Chen Chencheng asked in surprise, "Really?"

"On this trip, you've set up language traps for me at least three times, just like how you have been undermining me all along, refuting my views on our relationship."

Chen Chencheng: "I think everyone has their own perspective, isn't that right?"

"Yes, but you've always subtly put yourself on a higher pedestal. Although many languages are unconsciously revealed, you indeed place me beneath you, looking for someone who will unfailingly listen to you."

At this, Li Qing pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Chen Cheng, I mean no harm, I'm just saying this isn't good for you."

Chen Chencheng fell into self-reflection, and after three seconds, she raised her head and said, "I think you're wrong."

"Right, right, everything you say is right."

Li Qing had nothing to say; after all, it's hard to change a worldview built over twenty-something years, nor did he wish to change others' thoughts.

"..."

Upon reaching the square, both of them couldn't help but stop in their tracks, looking up at the sky filled with fireworks.

After a while, as the fireworks slowly died down, Li Qing sighed, "Haven't seen such excitement in years."

"It'll be even livelier on New Year's Eve." Chen Chencheng said with a crescent-eyed smile, "I haven't been out like this in a long time either."

"How long is a long time?" Li Qing casually inquired, keeping his gaze on the gradually fading sparks of the fireworks.

"About a year, just the psychology clinic, home, nothing else."

"Haven't tried any blind dates?"

"I have, but..." Chen Chencheng seemed to finally catch on and her expression turned odd, "it's just like you said."

Li Qing shrugged, "Human nature is the least able to withstand tests unless he's not familiar with you. Let's go, time to buy a phone."

The two walked silently along the way until they reached the phone section. Li Qing said, "What brand are you planning to buy?"

Chen Chencheng glanced around and said, "I heard Huami has good performance."

Li Qing nodded slightly, "Indeed, it's not bad."

"But I've heard their quality control isn't great."

"Indeed, it's not great."

"..." Chen Chencheng: "Can't you give some constructive advice?"

Li Qing picked up his phone and said, "Look, my phone is Huami. If you're buying from them, it's best to purchase through their official website or offline exclusive stores for better assurance. If there's an issue, you can exchange it."

Chen Chencheng: "Alright then, let's go in and take a look."

Upon entering the store, a clerk came up, seeing the two eyeing a phone, they stepped forward to introduce: "You two can check out our latest model."

The clerk picked up a phone nearby and said, "This is our newest Huami 12, adopting the latest under-screen camera technology, which we can currently say is unique to us."

Chen Chencheng played with the phone and asked, "Under-screen camera?"

The clerk explained, "The camera under the screen is referred to as an 'inner camera,' and the short form for the inner camera is 'InCam.'

"There's even such a short form?" Li Qing asked with interest.

"Of course!" The clerk fluently said, "For example, a phone like the lady's without a screen protector or case can be called 'bare InCam,' and a camera with beauty mode turned on can be called 'beauty cam.' Besides these, there are also terms like front cam, rear cam, and a whole series of camera naming methods."

Chen Chencheng frowned, "Something just feels off."

"Oh, really? My phone's battery recently bulged, what's generally the cause for this?" Li Qing curiously asked.

"Nowadays, it's mostly built-in non-removable batteries; the original battery wouldn't usually exhibit this. Sir, you probably bought a battery online and replaced it yourself."

The clerk smiled and explained, "Yet, there are many reasons that could cause a battery to bulge.

Things like charging for extended periods without unplugging; frequently using different chargers; unplugging and plugging the charger irregularly and frequently; unstable charging voltage; different standards at home and abroad; running two or more chargers at the same time; cross-using DC and AC; using another auxiliary cooling device while charging, causing the battery to become extremely unstable; the last one being a very high charging frequency that causes the port to char and blacken."

The clerk concluded, "In short, these are the reasons... Eh, sir, how come there are a few marks on your face?"

Li Qing: "I don't know, seems like something just rolled over, but don't mind this stuff."

He turned to Chen Chencheng and asked, "This phone seems quite good, shall we go with this one?"

"Sure, anyway, let's support domestic products."

She straightforwardly said, "Isn't Huami known for their poor quality control? If there are problems, you can bring it back to exchange, right?"
