A day went by, and Cheng Yaowen still hadn't received a friend request acceptance notification. Initially a bit miffed, now he only had an even stronger sense of conquest.0
With his understanding of Zhong Ruanxing, no matter her attitude towards him, he was certain she would attend Teacher Wen's birthday banquet tomorrow.0
Cheng Yaowen gazed thoughtfully at the silhouette of her profile picture in WeChat for a while without calling her again. On his way home, swaying his phone, he saw that above his manor, dense high-voltage wires had been erected like a net. Many charred bird carcasses were already stuck to them, and there was a strange smell in the air.0
Seeing him return, Cheng's mother greeted him joyfully, "Son, you're back! I've already had someone come measure the size of your windows. In a few days when the custom soundproof glass arrives, I'll have it installed for you. It'll guarantee you won't hear a thing while sleeping at night!"0
Cheng Yaowen forced a smile, "You've worked hard, Mom."0
He headed upstairs, and his mother followed, "Son, tomorrow I'll ride with you and go together. What time are you planning to leave?"0
Cheng Yaowen halted his steps and turned around, "You should let the driver take you. I have to go pick someone up."0
His mother asked, "Who are you picking up?"0
Cheng Yaowen smiled, "A fellow student I learned the piano with at Teacher's place. Teacher Wen specifically asked me to."0
His mother was immediately unhappy, "A woman? What does she do? Wen Shuyi is also ridiculous, why is she making you chauffeur for her? She's treating you like her own son to order around."0
Cheng Yaowen's eyes flashed with impatience, though his face still held a smile, "Alright Mom, I'm a bit tired today, I'll head to my room first."0
The next day, Cheng Yaowen got up very early. He didn't call for a driver and drove himself. Overnight, even more bird carcasses had accumulated on the manor grounds. The unpleasant smell grew stronger. Cheng Yaowen rolled up the car windows and ran over the dead birds on the road as he left the manor.0
The car drove all the way to the outside of Zhong Ruanxing's neighborhood. He parked the hundred million dollar luxury car at the entrance and sized up the dilapidated old complex.0
The city was gradually waking up. Many people emerged from within on electric bikes and bicycles. Cheng Yaowen lit a cigarette, rested his arm on the car window, and smoked leisurely, watching the exit.0
After who knows how long, a sports car suddenly sped out from the old complex. Cheng Yaowen was also a car aficionado and recognized it as the globally limited edition sports car from before, priced no less than 30 million yuan.0
To think there was actually someone who could afford such an expensive car living in this run-down complex. Beijing really had hidden dragons and crouching tigers everywhere.0
Through the car window, he couldn't see clearly who was inside. After a roar, it quickly disappeared from his sight. Cheng Yaowen didn't pay it much attention and continued to wait for Zhong Ruanxing. He had investigated her, not only knowing where she lived and who her family members were, but also what car she drove.0
Thinking about the information that showed she drove a pink minivan, Cheng Yaowen found it very amusing.0
That such a cold and noble woman actually drove such a cute little car, this woman always gave people a sense of contrast different from ordinary folk.0
Time passed bit by bit. The pile of cigarette butts on the ground grew larger and larger. Cheng Yaowen's previously confident mood became somewhat impatient. It was almost 10 o'clock now. According to plan, he should be inside the hotel welcoming guests for Teacher.0
