The advantage of being a TLE Black Gold member was that Lixi could receive each of their latest model kits in advance. She didn't even need to spend money to purchase them; these newly released models naturally came to her. Initially, she had intended them for Shen Rui, but since Chi Le happened to like them too, she figured she might as well give them to him.
Besides Shen Rui, others had also recognized that these were the latest models. They had originally planned to wait for Chi Le to act as he usually did—to come forward and ask if they could play together, at which point they would feign reluctance before agreeing. Instead, Chi Le did something completely out of character today: after class, he sat at his desk with Chi Yue, playing with the models by himself.
Zhou Sichen’s eyes were so full of envy they were practically glued to Chi Le. Yet, he didn't dare approach. His father had told him to stick as close to Shen Rui as possible and obey him; that way, he would have an endless supply of toys and snacks. Apparently, everyone else thought the same. Consequently, they remained distracted while playing cops and robbers with Shen Rui.
