Chapter 110: Intersecting Worlds
After getting in the car and leaving Bai Shengyun's Cantonese restaurant, Luo Qinglin's stomach was empty because he had only drunk a few sips of herbal tea, and he was still a little hungry.
The rain shower was short-lived and stopped not long after it began. The clouds that had accumulated in the sky dispersed, revealing moonlight as delicate as silk.
Luo Qinglin looked out the window, recalling how Mansory and Shen Yin got along today, and found it very strange, not like mother and son at all.
After all, when Mansory was being sarcastic to Jiang Yanyu, Luo Qinglin clearly saw that the corners of Shen Yin's mouth turned up, as if he was very happy.
"Does Shen Yin and Mansory have a bad relationship?" Luo Qinglin asked tentatively.
"What?" Jiang Yanyu did not answer, but asked, "What did you talk about with Shen Yin just now? Why are you suddenly curious about him?"
Luo Qinglin felt that there was no need to hide this, so he replied, "Shen Yin said he had someone he liked, and asked me if I wanted to try to pursue him. I said as long as that person was single, it would be fine."
"He actually has someone he likes? Weird." Jiang Yanyu raised his eyebrows. "He is the Chinese child that Mansory adopted to please me, but I haven't seen him since I became an adult."
"You two are not familiar with each other? Then why did you choose him as my assistant?" Luo Qinglin asked.
"He saw the studio's announcement and took the initiative to message me to ask if he could come. I thought he had a good resume and that you and I must have something in common to talk about, so I agreed to let him come."
"If you are tired, you can ask him to work for you," Jiang Yanyu smiled and asked for praise, "BB, am I thoughtful?"
"thoughtful."
He was so thoughtful that he thought Shen Yin was his love rival all this time, and spoke carefully, fearing that he would reveal his secret to Shen Yin.
However, after feeling relieved and knowing that Shen Yin liked Jiang Yanyu, Luo Qinglin felt much better about him.
Feeling in a good mood, Luo Qinglin was about to roll down the car window to enjoy the evening breeze, but as soon as he pressed it down, Jiang Yanyu closed the window again.
Although there was no need to take the highway on the way home, Jiang Yanyu shifted the gears, stepped on the accelerator to increase the speed, and drove into the highway ramp.
Luo Qinglin was puzzled and asked, "Aren't we going home now?"
"No," Jiang Yanyu smiled and said, "I'll take you to a good place."
Where else can you go if you don’t go home so late at night? Luo Qinglin questioned what Jiang Yanyu said about the "good place".
"Where are you going?" Luo Qinglin asked vigilantly.
"You'll know when you get there." Jiang Yanyu replied.
The cars were moving in the night, Senna was running on the far left, overtaking the cars on the right, making a huge roar.
Luo Qinglin rested his elbows on the car window, tilted his head, and peeked at Jiang Yanyu in the reflection on the glass.
The reflection in the glass was blurry and he couldn't see Jiang Yanyu's face or expression at all. He could only see a rough outline.
After being together for so long, Luo Qinglin suddenly realized that apart from clafoutis and hot cocoa, he actually didn't know what Jiang Yanyu liked.
Just like today's sports car, he originally thought that Jiang Yanyu only had that one business SUV, but he never thought that Jiang Yanyu might have his own garage like Bai Shengyun.
However, perhaps because of the 200 million sponsored by Jiang Yanyu, Luo Qinglin has become numb to money. He is no longer shocked by a monthly salary of 250,000 yuan as he used to be.
Luo Qinglin pursed his lips, smiled self-deprecatingly and helplessly, thinking that even before he got together with the vixen, he had already been infected with the extravagant lifestyle and even felt that millions were small sums.
Luo Qinglin, ah Luo Qinglin, you are so depraved.
The people beside him suddenly became quiet and motionless. Jiang Yanyu glanced at Luo Qinglin through the rearview mirror and asked, "Are you sleepy?"
"No," Luo Qinglin replied, "I'm thinking about something."
Knowing that Jiang Yanyu was going to ask more, Luo Qinglin added in advance: "I was wondering...what are your hobbies?"
"Hobbies?" Jiang Yanyu was stunned when she didn't expect Luo Qinglin to ask this question. "Let me think about it."
Jiang Yanyu thought for a long time, but could not come up with anything. He only thought of his hobby of watching Luo Qinglin's "photos" and "documentaries", so he replied: "I don't have any hobbies."
"No hobbies?" Luo Qinglin didn't believe it and asked in retort, "Don't you like listening to classical music?"
"I don't like classical music," Jiang Yanyu said. "I'm just used to it and I'm too lazy to listen to other types of music."
Noticing Luo Qinglin's weirdness, Jiang Yanyu sighed and asked bluntly, "What do you want to ask? Don't beat around the bush, just say it directly."
"I'm not hinting at that," Luo Qinglin paused for a moment and whispered, "I just suddenly realized that I don't know you well enough."
As soon as Jiang Yanyu heard it, he knew that his little bird had started to have wild thoughts again. He felt uneasy and his emotions exploded.
Jiang Yanyu sighed softly and asked, "Luo Qinglin, what do I like to eat the most?"
"Clafoutis."
“What brand of clothing do I wear most often?”
“La Forêt.”
"Which ring road do we live in?"
"Second ring."
"What kind of transportation can I drive?"
"Helicopters, manual and automatic small cars."
"What kind of person am I in your eyes?" Jiang Yanyu coughed lightly and asked the last question.
Luo Qinglin thought about it and answered seriously: "Pervert."
Jiang Yanyu sighed lightly, and didn't argue with Luo Qinglin, and replied: "That's it, isn't it? You know everything about my food, clothing, housing, transportation, and personality, so what else do you want to know?"
This logic sounds tenable, but Luo Qinglin still finds it weird. After all, how can a person be simply summarized by food, clothing, housing, transportation and personality?
"Just like... you know I want to be an independent photographer and then continue to apply for the World Press Photo Award," Luo Qinglin explained, "I don't even know what your ideal is."
"Ideal?" Jiang Yanyu frowned, thought for a while, and replied, "I don't have an ideal. If I have to name one, it would be... you know."
What's the meaning? Jiang Yanyu’s ideal can’t be to retire, right?
Luo Qinglin said puzzledly: "I don't know."
"To have an in-depth communication with you." Jiang Yanyu raised his eyebrows and said in a frivolous tone.
Luo Qinglin sighed and was too lazy to speak. He knew that asking directly would not get him any results, as Jiang Yanyu never said a serious word.
"If you don't want to say it, forget it." Luo Qinglin looked at the tall lights on the highway and said in a low voice.
The car fell into a strange silence. Seeing Luo Qinglin suddenly stop talking, Jiang Yanyu secretly glanced at him out of the corner of his eye.
"bb?" Jiang Yanyu called in a soft voice.
"What?"
"I'm thirsty and want to drink some water," Jiang Yanyu said softly, obviously acting like a spoiled child. "The water is by the door."
Luo Qinglin curled his lips, reached out to take the bottle of mineral water next to the seat, unscrewed the cap, and handed the water to Jiang Yanyu's mouth.
The water was handed over, but Jiang Yanyu refused to drink it and didn't even turn his head.
Luo Qinglin urged: "Hurry up, if you don't drink it, I will take it away."
"What's the hurry?"
Jiang Yanyu held the steering wheel with one hand and reached out to press a key on the control panel. Then, all the lights in the car lit up.
Only then did Luo Qinglin notice that on the car door on Jiang Yanyu's side, there was a device with a small light spot, like a miniature camera.
"Baby, feed me. I can't drink like this." Jiang Yanyu said.
Luo Qinglin frowned, tilted the bottle slightly, and asked hesitantly: "Jiang Yanyu, you won't even record me feeding you water, right?"
Jiang Yanyu was not ashamed when his little trick was caught. Instead, he calmly explained: "This camera is used to prevent theft, not to take secret photos. For a sports car, anti-theft measures must be in place."
There is no truth in the mouth of a vixen, Luo Qinglin doesn't believe this.
"abnormal."
Luo Qinglin put away the water, shrank back to the car door, and quietly watched the street lights passing by behind him.
Soon, the car changed its route to the far right and drove onto the exit ramp of the highway. The speed became slower and slower. After getting off the highway, it only drove for more than ten minutes to reach its destination - the racing track in the western suburbs.
The surroundings were empty and there was no one in sight. The white lights were on beside the straight track, illuminating the entire stadium extremely brightly.
Luo Qinglin was puzzled, looked around, and asked: "You want to drive fast in the middle of the night?"
"I'm not the one speeding," Jiang Yanyu unbuckled his seat belt with one hand, put the car in parking gear, and opened both windows, "You're the one speeding."
Jiang Yanyu walked past the car, went around to Luo Qinglin's side, and opened the door. "Come on, try it."
The last time Luo Qinglin drove was when he took the driving test a few years ago. He didn’t even know how to change gears, so how could he be capable of speeding?
"But I can't drive!" Luo Qinglin widened his eyes, shrank in the car seat, and held on to the seat belt tightly.
"What are you afraid of? It's very simple. I'll put it in sports mode. All you have to do is step on the accelerator, release the accelerator, and step on the brake. You don't even have to change gears."
Jiang Yanyu unbuckled the seat belt without saying a word, grabbed Luo Qinglin's hand, and pulled him out of the car.
"Wait!" Luo Qinglin was dragged to the driver's seat and staggered into the seat. "What if I crash the car?"
"If you want to crash it, then crash it," Jiang Yanyu threw a flirtatious glance and sat on the passenger seat, "I have plenty of cars for you to crash. Hurry, step on the brakes."
Luo Qinglin was very nervous. He stepped on the brakes tremblingly and said in a trembling voice: "I don't want to drive fast, can't you do it yourself?"
Jiang Yanyu snorted coldly and said unsatisfiedly: "You promised last time that you were willing to come to my world, but now you are going to go back on your word?"
"Your world is just racing?" Luo Qinglin retorted, gripping the steering wheel tightly.
"My world is helicopter flying. I'd like to let you fly a helicopter, but the question is, do you dare? Can you do it?" Jiang Yanyu said, "The last time you rode a helicopter, you were scared half to death. I don't dare let you ride it again."
"I fainted from hunger, not from fear!" Luo Qinglin retorted.
"Anyway, you promised to accept my world, don't go back on your word," Jiang Yanyu didn't argue with Luo Qinglin and switched to sports mode directly. "Okay, step on the accelerator and go."
Luo Qinglin had no choice but to gently step on the accelerator.
Even though he only stepped on the brake lightly, the huge recoil of the sports car still pulled him back. Luo Qinglin quickly released the accelerator and stepped on the brake, "No, it's too fast."
Jiang Yanyu soothed him, "Be good, take your time, it's very simple."
Luo Qinglin exhaled lightly, swallowed nervously, and stepped down slightly on his toes. The sports car started moving, and except for the uncomfortable recoil at the beginning, it was relatively stable afterwards.
Luo Qinglin stared at the road and turned the steering wheel cautiously, driving the sports car at a snail's pace. It took him more than twenty minutes to go around the track.
Finally, when the car drove back to the original starting line, Jiang Yanyu took out two noise-cancelling headphones from somewhere and put one of them on Luo Qinglin's head.
In front of the starting line is a straight track that is more than 600 meters long.
"Press the accelerator to the bottom, and release it when I tell you to." Jiang Yanyu's voice came from the headset.
Luo Qinglin turned his head and wanted to say no, but Jiang Yanyu was staring at him, with the corners of his eyes slightly curved and a light that seemed to be full of love in his eyes.
"Be good, trust me, you will like it."
Jiang Yanyu's voice in the headphones was a little distorted. Luo Qinglin listened and felt that it was not a mortal speaking, but the fox goddess was talking to him through his consciousness.
The night wind blew, and my heart suddenly began to beat wildly.
Luo Qinglin turned back, stared at the road ahead, held his breath, and agreed: "Okay."
Buzz! ! !
In an instant, Senna rushed forward like an arrow.
The wind, carrying a faint smell of gasoline exhaust, blew Luo Qinglin's hair all over the place. His heartbeat rose rapidly on the dashboard, beating faster and faster, and was about to burst out of his chest.
As he quickly shuttled through the wind, Luo Qinglin couldn't describe the feeling in his heart. He just felt like fireworks were exploding in his ears, and even his scalp was numb from the shock.
The buildings on both sides gradually became unclear, and Luo Qinglin could only hear the breathing sounds in the headphones.
"Luo Qinglin, do you like this feeling?"
"like!"
"So do you like my world?"
"like."
After receiving a positive answer, Jiang Yanyu smiled and asked excitedly: "So when are you going to take me to your world?"
With adrenaline pumping up, Luo Qinglin stared at the long road ahead and replied, "You are already in my world."
