Chapter 36

Wang Daokun's newly opened restaurant was in the development zone of Jin Ling City.

The development zone was relatively far from the city center, and it was sparsely populated. Ye Chen was a bit puzzled as to why Wang Daokun chose to open the restaurant here.

However, hearing Xiao Churan say that several large manufacturing enterprises were about to move into the development zone, including big companies like Foxconn, it would soon become bustling.

So, Wang Daokun opening the restaurant here now was actually quite wise.

Wang Daokun's restaurant was on the side of a wide new street, and it looked quite large, with two floors.

The restaurant was named Yue Lai Restaurant, and it looked like it had some artistic conception.

When Ye Chen drove the car to the entrance of the restaurant, a row of cars was already parked at the entrance, and several people were standing in front of a golden BMW sedan, smoking and chatting.

Ye Chen recognized these people; they were all classmates from his former college class, but these people didn't have any friendship with him.

Ye Chen still remembered the leader of the group, whose name was Wang Tengfei. He was a relatively famous rich second-generation in the class at the time and had always had ideas about Xiao Churan, but Xiao Churan didn't buy his act at all.

At this time, Wang Tengfei was leaning against the golden BMW, accepting the flattery of his classmates. Several male classmates were commenting on his newly bought BMW sedan, exclaiming: "Brother Fei, you really are a winner in life. How long has it been since graduation, and you're already driving a BMW! It seems to be a BMW 540, right? 5 Series top-spec?"

Wang Tengfei laughed and said: "Oh, 540, it's nothing more than a commuter car worth seven or eight hundred thousand; it's nothing."

"Damn! 540? This is the most expensive imported car in the 5 Series!"

"Hey, I want to buy a BMW 1 Series worth two hundred thousand, and I can't even scrape together the down payment. Compared to Brother Fei, I'm really far behind!"

"Brother Fei, the power of this car must be very fierce, right?"

Wang Tengfei said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay; the power is considered relatively strong, and I don't usually meet any opponents on the street."

"So awesome! If only I could have a BMW sedan; my girlfriend complains every day that I can't afford a car, and it's so annoying!"

At this time, someone with sharp eyes saw another BMW coming and said with surprise: "Oh my, is this BMW also one of our classmates'?"

"Oh my god! Isn't this Ye Chen, that stinky loser?"

"The one sitting in the passenger seat seems to be Xiao Churan! Damn, this guy who eats soft rice has actually started driving a BMW too; he must have benefited from Xiao Churan's light!"

Wang Tengfei also saw Ye Chen in the car, his expression somewhat gloomy as he said: "So it's this loser! Damn, he really has good luck!"

At this time, someone asked: "Hey, what series is the BMW he's driving?"

It just so happened that Ye Chen drove the car nearby at this time, then reversed into the parking space. Wang Tengfei took one look at the 520 on the tail badge and immediately laughed with disdain: "Tch, 520, the lowest beggar version of the 5 Series; only losers who puff up their faces to look fat drive this model!"

Someone next to him immediately nodded and said: "Brother Fei, yours is the top-tier 5 Series, and his is the cheapest 5 Series; compared to yours, it's quite a bit worse, right?"

Wang Tengfei snorted through his nose: "I could buy two of his with mine!"

"Brother Fei is still the best!"

At this time, Ye Chen parked the car, and Xiao Churan and Dong Ruolin got out first.

Several boys immediately stared straight, and a swarm of them came up to greet them: "Oh my, the two golden flowers of our class have come together!"

Xiao Churan and Dong Ruolin politely greeted everyone. Wang Tengfei looked at Xiao Churan, who was now even more beautiful and moving, and felt extremely unbalanced in his heart.

Damn, why?

He had desperately pursued Xiao Churan when he was in college, and she didn't pay any attention to him at all.

Now, she had actually married a live-in son-in-law, a loser who ate soft rice!

God must be blind!

Thinking of this, he sneered and ridiculed: "Oh, Ye Chen, your treatment as a live-in son-in-law in Churan's family seems quite good! You're even driving a BMW! Did Churan's family buy it for you? You really are a role model for our generation of men taking shortcuts!"

Xiao Churan felt somewhat displeased upon hearing this. Dong Ruolin, standing to the side, immediately said: "Wang Tengfei, you're mistaken; this car wasn't bought by Churan's family; Ye Chen bought it himself!"

"Oh!" Wang Tengfei curled his lips: "Impressive, you're even driving a BMW 5 Series!"

After saying that, he deliberately provoked Ye Chen: "I say Ye Chen, there are no cars in this development zone, and the main road at the entrance is wide and straight. Why don't the two of us drive up and compare who is faster, how about that?"

Ye Chen frowned, feeling somewhat angry in his heart as he looked at Wang Tengfei.

Why are you looking for trouble with me for no reason? I don't have any friendship or conflict with you.

Besides, you want to compare who is faster with me? This is a BMW 760, the most expensive and fastest BMW model. If you compare with me, it makes it look like I'm bullying a child.

Wang Tengfei thought he was afraid. He immediately ridiculed: "Oh, I say Ye Chen, why are you still as cowardly as you were in college! What are you afraid of in a comparison? Are you reluctant to spend this little bit of gas money? At worst, I'll just pay for a tank of gas for you."

Dong Ruolin protested with some dissatisfaction: "Hey, Wang Tengfei, what do you mean? Your car is a BMW 540, and Ye Chen's is a 520; the power is several grades apart. Do you think it's fair to compare who runs faster?"

Wang Tengfei shrugged his shoulders: "Driving mainly depends on technique! A good car doesn't necessarily mean it runs fast; it also depends on technique and courage. I don't know if Ye Chen has the guts to compare with me? If you're cowardly or afraid, then forget it. Anyway, Ye Chen has always been unable to stand on any stage, as everyone knows."

Several people next to him immediately echoed: "Exactly, just say it if you're afraid; it's not embarrassing."

Ye Chen didn't get angry but laughed instead, saying: "Wang Tengfei, a comparison is possible, but we can't just compare with our mouths, right? It's best to have some stakes; otherwise, how boring would it be?"

"Okay!" Wang Tengfei was just worried that Ye Chen wouldn't take the bait. Suddenly hearing him mention stakes, he immediately concluded that he was courting death and blurted out: "How about this, whoever loses will kneel on the ground and kowtow to the other to admit their mistake, how about that?"

Ye Chen shook his head: "We're all adults; don't play such childish games."

At this time, Wang Daokun, wearing a suit, walked out holding a large string of firecrackers. Seeing that Ye Chen had arrived, he immediately stepped forward excitedly and said: "Oh, Ye Chen, you're here!"

Ye Chen nodded, smiled slightly at him, and said: "Congratulations on your new store opening, Daokun!"

Wang Daokun smiled and said: "Thanks, brother!"

Wang Tengfei said coldly at this time: "Ye Chen, don't change the subject. Tell me, what stakes do you think are appropriate?"

Wang Daokun asked curiously: "What's wrong? What are you guys doing?"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, looked at the large string of firecrackers in his arms, and asked him: "Daokun, how many bangs are these firecrackers?"

"Thirty thousand bangs!" Wang Daokun smiled: "This string of firecrackers isn't cheap; it covers the ground in red, over six hundred a string!"

Ye Chen nodded and said to Wang Tengfei: "How about this, let's compare. Whoever loses will put this string of firecrackers in their own car and set them off, how about that?"
