Chapter 112: Senior's Car Headlights Are Quite Nice

Having a mine at home makes one speak with confidence.

However, for Ren Man, the labor fees for inviting a few celebrities to audition were certainly not a large sum of money.

Xu Heng smiled and said, "Then I'll pay half too; I can't let you bear the expense alone, Senior."

Hearing this, Ren Man looked up at him in surprise, perhaps not expecting that Xu Heng, with his businessman-like style, would be so generous.

She nodded: "That works too, after all, you can be considered an investor in the film."

She did not refuse Xu Heng's proposal; although Xu Heng was just being polite, the face that needed to be given still had to be given.

Moreover, labor fees of tens of thousands or a hundred thousand, to be honest, did not exceed Xu Heng's capacity to bear.

Ren Man asked him if he wanted to move up the estimated filming time, because she had a complete team and could start filming as soon as the actors were in place.

Xu Heng said that was fine, but regarding where to hold the actor auditions, he asked for her opinion, Senior.

Ren Man gave him two directions: one was to hold the auditions at her company in Modu, where she could still find quite a few minor actors to audition by relying on her connections at school; the second was to hold them in Jinling, with Xu Heng taking the lead and posting audition news online, which would allow him to attract some fourth or fifth-tier minor actors by relying on his current popularity.

Her consideration was quite thoughtful; Xu Heng rubbed his chin and pondered for a while, finally deciding to hold the audition work in Jinling, as he still wanted to keep the general planning of the film under his own control.

Even though Ren Man had already softened her stance and appeared to be on the same side as him, cooperation in the business world did not mean that everyone could completely exchange sincerity for sincerity.

Perhaps after trading for a long time they could become close friends, but his current relationship with Ren Man had not yet reached that point.

Upon hearing this, Ren Man knew that Xu Heng was still wary of her, and indicated it was no problem: "You set the time and place, just notify me when the time comes."

She paused, then added: "Also, you had best post the news online first and wait for the news to fully ferment before starting the auditions; that way, the more people who know the news, the wider our casting range will be."

Xu Heng accepted her advice.

Then the two talked about the details of the film for another half hour or so; when the sun set behind the western hills, Ren Man stood up and said, "It's getting late, let me drive you back to school."

"How about I treat you to a meal, Senior?"

"No need, I have to rush back to the company tonight to deploy personnel for *Love is Not Blind*; we'll talk about it next time when I'm free."

Having been politely declined by Ren Man, Xu Heng could only nod and say alright, then told her to let him know next time she came to Jinling so he could book a place in advance to welcome her.

"There is no need to treat me with those businessman-like ways of doing things; I personally don't care for these formalities," Ren Man said indifferently.

Xu Heng smiled: "That may be so, but since you helped me so much this time, Senior, it wouldn't be excessive to treat you to a meal, would it?"

Ren Man said that having the intention was enough.

While chatting, the two had already walked to where she had parked when she arrived.

At this moment, several young women dressed like students were gathered next to the Maserati taking photos.

Ren Man seemed accustomed to this kind of thing; with an unchanging expression, she walked behind them and tapped one of the girls on the shoulder.

"Excuse me, I'm leaving, could you move aside?"

"Ah!"

A girl with wavy hair who was posing on the hood of the Maserati was startled by the sound she made out of the blue, and she slid off the hood, landing on her bottom.

The girl, likely wanting to cover up her unseemly behavior, feigned anger and said: "What is wrong with you? Don't go around scaring people in broad daylight!"

To this, Ren Man said nothing, and after ignoring her, she sat in the passenger seat.

"Do you have any manners at all? You scared us, and you don't even have an apology?" the wavy-haired girl pointed at her nose and cursed, "My new dress I bought yesterday is all dirty because of you; you're really rich but have no upbringing!"

Ren Man turned her head and looked at her indifferently.

The girl had been enjoying her rant and was ready to leave, but seeing Ren Man's look of extreme disdain—like an elephant looking at an ant—she immediately became unhappy again.

"What are you looking at! Is being rich so great? I just borrowed your car to take two photos, was it necessary to scare me? To be honest, I wouldn't even want this piece-of-junk car of yours! Looking at you, you're probably a mistress kept by someone, and the car must be covered in the stench of some fat nouveau riche."

Ren Man couldn't be bothered to deal with such a person; she rolled up the window and told Xu Heng to get in.

But the other party remained relentless, slapping the window and cursing like a shrew in a street fight.

Seeing this, Xu Heng didn't get in, but instead smiled and said to the girl: "Bestie, if you break this window, you'll have to pay tens of thousands, and this is a parking lot with surveillance; you won't be able to deny it when the time comes."

Upon hearing that she would have to pay tens of thousands, the girl immediately stopped slapping the window, though she still stood there cursing viciously.

Xu Heng shook his head, quite speechless; every era has its 'xxn', and the 'fairy' behavior of these 'xxn' easily ruins the good image of women in the eyes of men.

It was fortunate that 2G internet speeds were slow today; if it were ten years later, once this girl's video spread online, she would at least end up with depression.

Xu Heng wasn't that malicious; he just said calmly: "Touching someone else's vehicle without permission is already a violation of property safety, and wantonly insulting others constitutes the crime of insult. If I call the police now, they can take you in and detain you in the station for two weeks. Are you sure you still want to stay here?"

"..."

The girl was timid after all; from the moment Xu Heng pulled out the banner of the law, she didn't dare to continue being insolent. With a few of her 'besties' pulling and persuading her on the side, the farce came to a hasty end, arriving suddenly and leaving just as quickly.

After scaring off the girls, Xu Heng opened the door and sat in the Maserati.

"You've studied law?" Ren Man pressed the key, unlocking and starting the engine with fluid movements.

"No, but that doesn't stop me from making up a few charges to bluff her."

"Actually, it's not a crime for her to touch my car, right?"

"How would I know?" Xu Heng shrugged.

Ren Man nodded with profound meaning.

The engine let out a beast-like roar, and the Maserati sped forward with a sound like muffled thunder.

From the exterior, Xu Heng could only tell that Ren Man's Maserati was likely a GT, though he wasn't sure which model; however, a two-seater Maserati, even if not a supercar, would still cost several million.

If it were a matter of taking out several million to buy a house, Xu Heng would still be willing, but to spend several million on a car, he would still hesitate.

After all, houses can appreciate in value, but cars cannot.

Xu Heng touched the window frame of the Maserati, thinking that when he had money in the future, he would also buy a sports car like this.

Driving it around the school gate twice then, wouldn't that be cool enough to be 'raining fire'?

Looking again at the Senior beside him, the mountains beneath that wrap, those beautiful legs pressing the accelerator—this scene perfectly fit the term 'fragrant car and beautiful woman'.

It was a pity the car wasn't his, and the person had nothing to do with him either.

"Senior, the headlights on your car are quite nice," Xu Heng remarked with a sigh of admiration.

Ren Man was stunned, unable to understand for a moment why he would compliment the headlights of her car.
