The Tycoon Inheritance [SaMpLe]

24.

The drive to the university was uneventful. This may be for some but for Chen Kai, he took the opportunity to observe the daily hamster wheel of society. He took great interest in the bustling pedestrians, taxi drivers making ends meet, the food stall vendors, and the numerous businesses opening for another money-making day. Through his wandering gaze, he can also tell how the hierarchy is. It's the same in every era, every world.

The richer you are, the more power you hold.

With power, respect comes after even if it's fearful or admirable.

He lived both sides of the unfortunate and the fortunate, he understood both clearly. That's why he had a neutral stance in living and the way he handled things. An example of his neutrality is the hearing he's about to have. He can honestly say that Lin Shen used his family name and some cash to have 'evidence' and probably bribe the relevant parties. The same way that he speculates this act, is the same thinking he has of there being someone who won't stand for such actions.
There are always two sides to a coin.

It will be fun to watch things unfold. He simply had to tell the truth.

                                                                                      ~~~~~~

It was nine in the morning and XXX University had its share of students shuffling from building to building or taking advantage of the warm morning sun. Most of the student body was lazing about the campus due to exams and minor classes. Most used the facilities or were busy with gossip.

"Oh, today is that hearing with Senior Chen and Senior Lin."

     "Mm. There was a little hype about it on the forum but it wasn't worth a share. Senior Chen didn't post a rebuttal or claim innocence, he simply chatted in the comments section then disappeared."

"That was a top-tier move."

      "I know right? If you ask me, this whole accusation of sabotage and harassment is way beyond Senior Chen."

"Another one who has him on a pedestal. That face of his won't land him a good job or success. That's all he has going for him."

  The group of friends looked at the person who made the last comment with indifferent and disbelieving gazes.

         "........ Are you going to stay with that comment?"

        "It's too early to be so bitter."

         "Oh, you can't get that grain of sand out of your eye, huh?"

"I'm not jealous. He's pretentious and everyone can't see it. If he had money and a good background then his arrogance would be justified but he isn't."  

On his last word, the heavens decided to play the irony game with this fellow. The low rumble of a car met their ears. As young men, their love for cars is either superficial or technical. Two out of the five were technical and recognized the sound of a luxury car engine. 

The sound was like the low rumble of a sleek and dangerous panther.

They turned their heads to the open car park for senior students. From afar the glossy burnt orange of a beautifully designed SUV slowly made it into their view. The 22" wheels moved smoothly along the asphalt and the impact of its beauty made both men's and women's blood boil at the sight of it.

"The Urus S. That's the Lamborghini Urus S. I haven't seen one in Nanjing since it has been available for sale. None of the dealers were able to get one. From the color and the windows, this must be a customized version." one commented. He unconsciously moved towards the carpark and it was the same for all the car lovers and curious onlookers.
