“Wipe it off.”

Jiang Chen finally got in the car, perhaps because of the people inside, or perhaps because of the car itself.

Sitting in the passenger seat, he seemed somewhat restrained.

Zheng Jingjing passed a pack of tissues from the back.

“Thank you.”

His hair, face, and clothes were all wet, and a single pack of tissues was hardly enough.

The leather seat had already been soaked through.

Jiang Chen managed to dry his face.

“I got your car dirty, I’m sorry.”

He apologized to Li Shuru.

“It’s just water, it will dry by itself.”

Li Shuru responded indifferently, seemingly not overly concerned about her brand-new car.

Jiang Chen had known that Li Shuru bought a car, but he certainly didn’t expect her to take the initiative to give him a ride.

This beauty of the Arts Institute wasn’t as cold as she seemed.

“Jiang Chen, are you really not going to take care of Ai Qian?

She’s still sitting at the entrance of V-Club crying.”

Zheng Jingjing asked.

“I gave her my umbrella, what else can I do?

Besides, it doesn’t seem like there’s a fifth seat here, right?”

Jiang Chen gave a bitter smile.

It sounded humorous, but the meaning behind it was profound.

Actually, this Panamera is a five-seater sports car that can fit five people without a problem.

The real question was, would Li Shuru be willing?

And if it hadn’t been for Li Shuru’s sudden act of kindness, he’d still be standing miserably in the rain on the side of the street.

As for Ai Qian, he had done all he could, and he was powerless to do any more.

“If you had been this decisive earlier, you wouldn’t have such a reputation now, would you?”

Xu Siyi was amused and dropped her cold facade.

Jiang Chen didn’t respond with a smile.

“Jiang Chen, we worked well together today.

Liang Zhenlun’s face went completely dark when he saw us, giggle…”

Thinking back, Zheng Jingjing found it extremely funny.

“Thanks to the beautiful Zheng for coming to my rescue.

Without you, I really would have lost face all the way to my grandma’s house tonight.”

Jiang Chen sighed.

“Aren’t you embarrassed enough?”

Xu Siyi teased, “On what day do you not work part-time?

Had to be today, and you just had to go into that private room.”

Jiang Chen didn’t explain that it was a trap set for him, but casually said, “I’ve always been a bit unlucky.”

“Tsk, you’ve got that Stephen Chow vibe.”

Zheng Jingjing joked.

Though they weren’t particularly close, at that moment they were like old friends who had known each other for years, and none of them had yet realized this subtle shift.

“Shu Rui, is this car yours?”

Jiang Chen asked as if it were the most natural question.

“What else?

Or could it be yours?”

Zheng Jingjing said proudly, “Drop the filthy thoughts from your mind.

This car was bought by Shu Rui through her own efforts, without relying on anyone.”

Anyone who didn’t know better might think she was the owner of the car.

“This is a Panamera, right?”

Jiang Chen’s eyes shone with envy and admiration as he looked over the luxurious interior, “Luxury cars really are different.

This one must be over a million, right?”

“To be precise, one million three hundred thousand.”

Upon hearing Zheng Jingjing’s words, Jiang Chen took a light breath.

“The down payment alone must be four hundred thousand?”

“What down payment?

Shu Rui bought it in full!”

Zheng Jingjing gave Jiang Chen a look, seemingly mocking him for being like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

“Full payment?”

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but turn to look at Li Shuru, apparently shocked by her financial power.

“What, are you scared now?”

Zheng Jingjing teased: “My dear Senior Jiang, don’t forget, you were the one murmuring about pursuing Shu Rui.

How can you act as a man if you’re so faint-hearted?”

“Heh.”

Jiang Chen laughed carelessly, though it seemed a bit like he was covering up his embarrassment.

“Am I that kind of coward?

I just didn’t expect Shu Rui to be such a good earner.

Now I can rest assured.” freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Even Xu Siyi found it baffling and asked, “Rest assured about what?”

“I was worried that with my abilities, I might genuinely not be able to afford Shu Rui.

But now there’s no need to worry; Shu Rui can completely support herself.”

Jiang Chen said assuredly, with a look of it being the most natural thing.

“I’ve already decided, once we’re together, I can handle domestic affairs while Shu Rui takes charge of external matters.”

Zheng Jingjing and Xu Siyi were left speechless.

Is this something a man should say?

Could you be any more shameless???

“Shu Rui, stop the car right now and throw this guy out!

He’s just too shameless!”

Zheng Jingjing regretted her previous soft-heartedness.

“Let me enlighten you all with some legal knowledge,”

Jiang Chen seemed to kindly remind, “Failing to assist a person in danger may not constitute a crime, but if you throw me out and something happens to me, then you’ll be responsible.”

Zheng Jingjing was dumbfounded, pointing at Jiang Chen stammering “you, you, you…” for a while, then, through gritted teeth, cursed, “You ingrate!”

“I’m just stating the facts, which I learned in a public lecture.”

Jiang Chen remained unfazed, his thick-skinned demeanor astonishing.

Zheng Jingjing was livid.

And to think she had started to believe this guy was actually not bad, what a blindness!

“Jiang Chen, I curse you to never find a girlfriend in your life!

And even if you do, you’ll definitely be dumped in the end!”

Her words were nothing short of venomous.

Jiang Chen appeared unmoved, casting a tender, affectionate glance at Li Shuru beside him.

“I trust Shu Rui wouldn’t do that to me.”

Zheng Jingjing paused, then quickly realized what he meant.

“Pah!

Shu Rui will never take a liking to you, never ever!”

“What if?”

“There are no ifs!”

“What if, what if?”

Jiang Chen was insistent.

“Then I’ll do a handstand and dance at a disco!”

Zheng Jingjing blurted out, her head clouded with anger, without thinking it through.

Xu Siyi looked on with a peculiar gaze.

“Handstand and dance at a disco?”

Jiang Chen was also taken aback, muttering, “Isn’t that a bit too difficult?”

“You dare bet?!”

Zheng Jingjing widened her sparkling eyes.

“It’s a bet, Shu Rui, Si Yi, you both are witnesses, she has to keep her promise when the time comes.”

“Zheng Jingjing always keeps her word!”

Zheng Jingjing exuded a heroic spirit that would not concede to men.

Xu Siyi shook her head and sighed.

What a foolish girl.

In a bet, isn’t there a stake on both sides?

You dance on your hands if you lose.

But what if he loses?

No punishment whatsoever.

“Alright, is it settled then?”

Jiang Chen’s eyes twinkled with mirth.

“It’s settled!”

Unbeknownst to them, they had already entered the gates of East University, and after driving a bit further, they stopped at a fork in the road.

“We’re not there yet.”

Jiang Chen reminded.

“Dream on!

Do you actually expect us to drop you off at your dorm?

Get out of the car!”

The minds of girls really do change in an instant.

Zheng Jingjing was the one who had insisted on Jiang Chen getting in the car, and now she was the one insisting he get out.

The rain outside had lessened a bit, lightly sprinkling, no longer pouring.

Jiang Chen sighed helplessly, lamenting to himself.

“Indeed, holding the steering wheel is always better than being a passenger.”

Li Shuru, who had been quiet for most of the trip, glanced at the young man beside her with a flicker in her eyes.

She inexplicably thought back to the scene at KIMI last week.

Back then, she was just a minor livestreamer.

Her friend was mumbling that a proper boyfriend for her had to at least drive a million-dollar luxury car.

“Thanks.”

Before she could ponder deeper, Jiang Chen had already pushed open the door, and then closed it behind him.

Li Shuru cut off her thoughts.

The Palamera made a right turn, and at the same time, an umbrella was thrown out from inside the car.

“Remember to return it to me!”

The car window rose again, gradually hiding Zheng Jingjing’s fiercely angry face.
