Chapter 1556: with translation of chapter title

~7 min read 1,265 words

Chatted a few words with Director Luo and Director Du, it was getting late, and each went their separate ways.

You called a car, let's just head back." Zheng Ren said.

Su Yun fiddled with his phone, then suddenly froze. Afterwards he burst out laughing and said: "Boss, our luck is simply fantastic."

How?

Ran into a big spender out for fun." Su Yun raised his phone, laughing: "A Rolls-Royce Ghost, a car worth over five million yuan, doing Didi rides."

Uh..." Zheng Ren couldn't understand such a thing.

Su Yun seized the time to finish the operation, then said: "It's said that on weekends at Wangfujing in Di Du, a Porsche 911 appears in stormy weather, randomly giving someone a ride."

Sounds like a scene from a ghost movie." Zheng Ren said.

What a boring life; if you can't do Shou Bing, you're utterly useless." Su Yun said contemptuously: "The core socialist values—shouldn't you study them properly from scratch?"

I know it backwards and forwards." Zheng Ren said expressionlessly.

Boss, this is life's interest." Su Yun blew a breath, his black hair fluttering on his forehead, "There's nothing better to do; when someone needs a ride, you just pick up a stranger and take them somewhere you don't even know—don't you think that's romantic?"

I don't think so." Zheng Ren said: "The fuel cost of a Porsche 911 alone outweighs the romance you mention. 95-octane gasoline is probably over seven yuan per liter now—wake up; who just drives a 911 around for fun with no reason?"

That big brother who randomly picks people up and drives them home is legendary in Di Du. When I have money… mainly when I have free time, I'll do the same." Su Yun didn't care about Zheng Ren's mockery; our worldviews, outlooks on life, and values differ, so we can't see eye to eye on this.

Rest assured, before you turn sixty you definitely won't have free time." Zheng Ren said firmly: "With that time, wouldn't doing two Shou Bing be good?"

There will always be a time when you get tired of it.

I guess your real intention is to go to the school gate and put a pulse on the car hood?

Boss, that was a practice from ten years ago. Now try it—no matter what car you drive, as soon as the male students get hot-headed, they'll beat you up." Su Yun said with a smile: "Besides, you need that approach, I don't. Loitering at the school gate smoking a cigarette, and girls will come chat me up."

Don't talk nonsense; with this time you'd be better off thinking about how to give me proper navigation when doing a puncture on Li Lao." Zheng Ren watched the traffic, looking for the Rolls-Royce Ghost.

This car is an entry-level Rolls-Royce; although its price is lower than Zou Yu's ride in Di Du—the Rolls-Royce Phantom—precisely because it's much cheaper, its ownership rate is higher than the Phantom's.

It is said to be one of the fastest mass-produced models of Rolls-Royce.

Zheng Ren had never seen a Rolls-Royce Ghost before; he was mildly curious—just who would be idly driving such a luxury car for Didi?

Su Yun was about to speak when his phone rang.

Hey, Zou Yu, what's up?

No need, I just hailed a car.

Ha, also a Rolls-Royce—stop flaunting your Phantom every day. In the Evening, you find your own meals; don't think about mooching off home.

All right, hung up.

After saying that, Su Yun hung up the phone and smiled: "Zou Yu still wants to mooch a meal at home—how lovely for her."

Go ahead, it's not like we're missing a mouth." Zheng Ren said casually.

Su Yun observed Zheng Ren's expression, thought he wasn't mocking him, and sighed.

Running into someone so single-mindedly focused on Technique, unwilling to divert attention to anything else, is really boring.

Soon, a black Rolls-Royce Ghost pulled up nearby.

The car was very eye-catching.

The license plate was also nice; amid the sea of cars it was spotted at a glance.

Su Yun lifted his phone, waved, and he and Zheng Ren walked over.

Opening the car door, Zheng Ren felt something slightly off.

The driver's gaze was like a knife, fixed on Su Yun. That look was direct, with no concealment whatsoever.

Zheng Ren froze for a moment; he felt no hostility in that gaze.

He sensed admiration, praise, and a hint of greed in that gaze.

Though it had nothing to do with him, it was the car Su Yun had called. What was this? His own arranged fling—even if tears were involved, he had to see it through?

That's roughly what it meant.

Zheng Ren was about to get in when Su Yun grabbed him.

Su Yun's hand was like an iron clamp, as if encountering some unknown danger, his whole body tensed up.

What's wrong?" Zheng Ren asked.

Change cars." Su Yun said coldly, then picked up his phone and cancelled the order.

Young man, what's wrong?" the person in the driver's seat got out and said elegantly.

She was a woman around fifty, her grooming exquisite, making her look under forty. Her figure was great; if she wore a hat covering half her face, at a glance she resembled a woman in her thirties.

As for her figure, it could be described as smoking hot.

Su Yun blew a breath, his black hair fluttering on his forehead; he didn't speak, but picked up his phone.

That's a bit impolite, huh." The woman said with a chuckle.

Sorry, we happen to have a friend passing by on the way, so we won't take your car." Zheng Ren said with a smile.

She glanced at Zheng Ren, then her gaze shifted to Su Yun.

Zheng Ren laughed inwardly; letting him deal with that troublesome female patient was a remarkably wise move.

Young man, a Rolls-Royce Ghost certainly counts as a luxury car, right." The woman lightly tapped the car body with some rhythm, "Meeting is fate—why bother having a friend come pick us up?"

No need." Su Yun's face turned ashen; seeing the distant black Phantom, he raised his hand high.

What car is that?" the woman turned her head, glanced, and frowned.

Phantom and Ghost... quite a coincidence.

She felt a bit regretful, but said nothing more, just sighed.

Wanting to get back in the car, but after glancing at Su Yun she stubbornly stopped, watching the Phantom approach.

Yun Ge'er, I'm leaving now." Zou Yu got out, laughing as he greeted Su Yun.

The woman saw Zou Yu step down from the Phantom, her face finally turning extremely grim. She immediately got back in the car and drove off.

Su Yun finally exhaled.

"What's going on?" Zheng Ren asked.

Zou Yu also noticed that Rolls-Royce Ghost, seemed to understand something, and the smile at the corners of his mouth grew a bit richer.

"Her left foot isn't wearing a shoe." Su Yun's expression turned cold, they got into the car, and then said nothing.

What's this meme?

Zheng Ren wasn't entirely clear, but they thought it was probably just that little thing.

It seems what Su Yun said is wrong; those legendary things are just a minority. With good luck, it's merely an illusion.

Zou Yu smiled happily, all the while watching Su Yun's grim expression, and chatting lightly with Zheng Ren.

Returning to Golden Palm, Zou Yu also didn't go up to mooch a meal, bade farewell and left.
