"No, thank you. I’m not really interested in car racing."
Even if Yun Zijin had zero sense of self-preservation, she wouldn’t go to a car race with a guy she’d just met, whose name she couldn’t even be sure was real.
"Come on, it doesn’t matter if you can’t race. You just need to sit in the passenger seat and cheer me on.
Don’t worry, I’m definitely not a bad guy. If we finish late, I’ll drive you straight home."
"Do you think a normal girl would go to a car race with a stranger she’d just met?"
Yun Zijin’s words were very blunt, and Sheng Yang was suddenly at a loss for how to respond.
’Why am I suddenly thinking she has a point?’ he wondered for a moment.
In all his life, this was the first time Sheng Yang had been rejected so bluntly by a girl, and he suddenly found himself even more interested in Yun Zijin.
"Alright, I get your concerns. But our meeting is fate. If we’re not going to the race, then we can at least add each other on WeChat, right?"
Sheng Yang took out his phone, pulled up his personal QR code, and presented it to Yun Zijin.
Not wanting to get too involved with him, Yun Zijin took out her phone, scanned the code, and added him as a friend.
"Done."
Seeing the friend request from the WeChat name "Qingqing Zijing," Sheng Yang happily tapped "accept."
"I’m going to go look at cars now. See you next time. I hope you’ll agree to come to a race with me then."
Racing was practically a regular occurrence; someone was always organizing one every few days. It was all about the thrill.
Yun Zijin forced a smile. ’We’re from two completely different worlds,’ she thought. ’The chances of us meeting again are basically zero.’
Yun Zijin waited in the lounge area for about 40 minutes before Lilith came jogging back in her stilettos.
"Miss Yun, your license plate and all the purchase paperwork have been processed. If you have your driver’s license, you can drive it off the lot right away.
Here are the car keys, along with the relevant invoices and documents. Please keep them safe."
Lilith handed the car key and the spare key to Yun Zijin, then passed over a file folder.
Yun Zijin took the keys, put one in her purse, and kept the other in her hand.
Only then did she start to inspect the file folder Lilith had given her. After checking and confirming the invoices and other documents inside were all in order, she tidied them up and fastened the folder’s clasp.
"Everything looks good. Thanks for running these errands for me. I’ll be going now."
With a car, commuting to and from work would be much more convenient for Yun Zijin from now on.
"Like the rain that falls when clouds hang low, my heart was moved when you sang softly..."
Yun Zijin was just about to drive out of the Auto Museum City when her phone rang.
Seeing it was an unknown number, Yun Zijin subconsciously assumed it was Xia Zhiyun who had borrowed someone’s phone to call her again.
She watched the phone ring for a long time without answering, until it finally disconnected on its own.
Lilith, however, happened to glance at the caller ID. ’Why does that number look so familiar?’ she wondered.
But she was just a saleswoman, so she didn’t dare say anything at a time like this.
When the phone rang a second time, Yun Zijin finally answered.
"Hello, am I speaking with Miss Yun Zijin?"
Confirming that the person on the other end wasn’t Xia Zhiyun, Yun Zijin relaxed.
"This is she. And you are...?"
"Hello, Miss Yun. My name is Wu Yutang, and I’m the director of the Dijing Southern Suburb Auto Expo City. I just received word that you’ve purchased all the real estate for the Auto Museum City, including the land. About the lease agreement..."
