Chapter 16: Genius Bi Ying
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Bi Ying’s house was an even more rundown brick house than the Ding Family’s. Huo Tian could hear a woman’s sharp and mean voice from the door. “What kind of joke is this? Bi Ying would never go to that elite school of yours! Isn’t his d*mn father the school’s chairman? Wouldn’t Bi Ying be killed if he went?”
A familiar voice slowly explained, “You’re worrying too much. Our school’s management is very strict, and we won’t let any student encounter any danger in the school. Given Bi Ying’s capabilities, the school will not only waive tuition and miscellaneous fees but also give scholarships depending on his performance. I hope you can take it into serious consideration.”
Another dry male voice asked, “If I agree to enroll in the school, can I take apply for long leave to self-study at home? I will take the exams at school.”
“There are no such precedences in the school and personally, I also don’t recommend that you break away from the school environment completely. But if you really can’t adapt to school life, I believe that the teachers will make appropriate adjustments according to your situation.”
Huo Tian could tell that the person who came to the Bi Family to make an offer to recruit Bi Yue was Si Huan, whom she had met twice. Hence, she didn’t realize that she’d be disturbing them and knocked on the door in pleasant surprise.
“Who is it? Who is it? Why are you using so much force? You’re almost breaking the door!” The middle-aged woman’s impatient voice rang out from behind the door. She pulled the door open and saw an unfamiliar face. “Who are you?”
Huo Tian said happily, “I’m here to look for Bi Ying.”
“Another one looking for that burden,” the woman muttered as she let Huo Tian enter the house. “You’d better be here to give our family money too.”
Huo Tian shook her head. “I’m not here to bring money. I’m here to earn your family’s money!”
The Bi family and Si Huan, who came to recruit Bi Yue, were stunned. What was wrong with this person? Could she be a swindler? But was there such a foolish swindler in the world?
When Si Huan saw the face of the uninvited guest, he knew that even though it was hard to say if this person was a swindler, she was really a foolish person!
Huo Tian waved happily at Si Huan. “Si Huan, what a coincidence. You’re here too.”
Si Huan nodded at her as a greeting.
Bi Ying, who was sitting in the wheelchair, frowned and looked at Huo Tian with a dark expression. “Who are you? I don’t know you.”
Huo Tian sat down beside them. “Of course you don’t know me. This is our first time meeting. Oh yes, my name is Huo Tian.”
Bi Ying’s attitude was cold. “What do you want? Let me tell you first, I’m not buying insurance or any other products. There’s no need to waste your time on me.”
Huo Tian, who was rejected for any marketing attempts before she could say anything, was dejected. She sighed and said, “Have you already ordered prosthetic limbs from somewhere else? Sigh, it seems that I’m still too late.”
“Prosthetic limbs?” Everyone looked at Huo Tian in surprise.
Bi Ying clenched his fists and said hatefully, “This place doesn’t welcome swindlers like you. If you don’t get lost, I’ll call the police!”
Huo Tian blinked her eyes in confusion. She did not understand why Bi Ying was angry. She thought that with his unpredictable personality, it was no wonder he designed an artificial intelligence that turned against humanity!
That’s right, after seeing Bi Ying’s true nature, Huo Tian matched him with the impression mentioned in history books. This thin and frail youth sitting in a wheelchair was the initiator of smart robots who was talented but died young.
Si Huan didn’t want Huo Tian to mess up his attempt to recruit Bi Yue, so he helped her explain things to Bi Ying. “Student Bi, there’s no need to be agitated. I know this Huo Tian. She’s a sophomore in our school. Although she might be in need of money, I believe she’s not a swindler.”
Huo Tian hurriedly nodded. “That’s right, how can I be a swindler? I hate swindlers the most!”
Bi Ying calmed down a little, but his attitude was still very cold. “Even if you’re not a swindler, I don’t think you have any means to get prosthetic limbs that suit me.”
“You don’t understand what I mean. I’m saying that I can personally make prosthetic limbs for you. They’ll be custom-made and definitely suitable for you, and it will also gradually adjust as you develop.”
Huo Tian stared at Bi Ying excitedly. “How is it? My skills are very good. Do you want to consider it?”
Before Bi Ying could reply, the middle-aged woman who had been listening to their conversation sneered, “Little girl, even if you’re joking, there must be a limit. How can it be so easy to make prosthetics? Anyway, Bi Ying has gotten used to sitting in a wheelchair, so what’s the point of messing around? Wouldn’t it be fine to just endure it for the rest of his life?”
Bi Ying kept his head lowered. His slightly long fringe covered his expression, but from his slightly trembling body, it could still be seen that he was trying hard to suppress his anger.
Huo Tian frowned, thinking that the environment Bi Ying grew up in was probably one of the reasons that led to his evil personality. However, the evil of ordinary people might harm society, while the evil of a genius might bring about a crisis for the whole of humanity one hundred years later.
At this moment, Si Huan said, “For a genius like Student Bi, it would probably be a regret for the entire era if he just endured things for his entire life.”
