Su Yang chuckled: "What? Are you afraid I'll trick you? I'm investing in you not only because you're my son, but also because I support your hobbies and career."
"But if you're too far off, there's no way I can make up for it. I know you've already talked to your dad, and I know he rejected you."
"But you should also know that he doesn't support your career because your profession is dangerous. You haven't participated in any competitions for the past two years, isn't that because you were injured before?"
Upon hearing Su Yang mention Shen Yuan's attitude and his injury, Shen Jingchuan's brows furrowed even more.
"That's what he said? An excuse! All competitive sports have a certain degree of risk. Even running and jumping rope can result in injuries, let alone racing. Besides, I'm not stupid. Do you think I'm driving with the intention of getting injured? Of course, I will do my best to protect myself. In the end, he just doesn't respect my hobbies and profession! He even respects the second son's profession!"
Su Yang was on the verge of tears: "You know perfectly well that your dad and your second brother don't get along. Anyway, if you can convince your dad, then you won't have to go through the trouble of finding other investors. Sometimes it's just a matter of giving in a little."
"Impossible! He'll only tell me to give up. Mom, it's getting late, you should get some rest."
Shen Jingchuan turned and left.
Su Yang knew that today's conversation had been a waste of time again.
-
Shen Jingchuan leaned against his car and lit a cigarette as soon as he left the house.
After thinking for a moment, he called Wen Yan again.
Want to go for a drive?
When Wen Yan received the phone call, she stood at her bedroom window and looked down, saying with a hint of disdain:
"Sure, but I don't want to ride in your noisy car."
"Why?" Shen Jingchuan didn't understand. No one had ever complained about his car before!
"I already said I'd be making noise in the streets, but I'm afraid of disturbing the neighbors."
"I'm not going to take you for a drive in crowded places."
"That would be perfect, I'm even more afraid of going to crowded places."
Shen Jingchuan was even more puzzled: "What are you afraid of? Don't you trust my driving skills?"
"No, I'm afraid of losing face. Actually, I have a question: someone as tall as you must be 1.8 meters, right?"
"1.81 meters tall."
"Okay, you're 1.81 meters tall. With your supercar having such a low chassis and such a low profile, and your legs being so long, do you drive lying down every time?"
"...Custom-made."
"Okay, even if it's custom-made, your car is still super low, and the chassis is still super low. Do you roll out every time you park at 181cm?"
Or do you always put your hands on the ground first, then put your feet up? What if there happens to be a glob of phlegm on the ground?
"Wen Yan, get down here, I promise I won't hit you."
If gazes could materialize, Wen Yan felt that Shen Jingchuan would probably stare two holes through her window.
But she was genuinely curious!
So five minutes later, she came downstairs in a casual, warm outfit.
She smiled broadly, her eyes filled with anticipation: "Please, get in and get off the bus so I can see you, please!"
Shen Jingchuan can no longer look at his supercar the same way; he can't even remember how he gets out of the car each time.
However, it will definitely not be very elegant.
He slapped Wen Yan on the head, his tone somewhat irritated: "Drive your car!"
Wen Yan turned around following the force of his hand: "Mine too... well, my car is indeed much taller than yours, luckily I brought my car keys. You still smoke? Can you stop? I feel uncomfortable with the smell of smoke."
Shen Jingchuan immediately stubbed out his cigarette: "I won't smoke. I'll keep it lit for you to see, in case it's too dark and you can't find me."
"...You might as well say you're planning to set the Shen family's villa on fire. Do you think I'd believe that?"
Shen Jingchuan chuckled softly.
I actually quit a long time ago, but I still occasionally light one up to smell it when I'm in a bad mood.
The two quickly drove away from the villa.
Wen Yan didn't ask where Shen Jingchuan was going, she just said, "I don't even remember that we had a conflict before because of the fake Shen Zhirou, and about the ten million, you should be able to tell me about it tonight."
"Yeah, otherwise I wouldn't have called you out so late. Do you like barbecue?"
"I like it."
"I like it too, and I prefer the ones from China; they feel more authentic and down-to-earth than the ones from abroad. There should be some for sale up ahead. What would you like to eat?"
"Lamb, beef, squid, green peppers, enoki mushrooms, scallops, whelks, oysters, that's all for now."
"good."
A short while later, Wen Yan indeed saw a row of food stalls not far ahead.
It's late-night snack time now, and the food stalls are still quite crowded.
Shen Jingchuan found a place to park the car and got out.
Upon seeing this, Wen Yan quickly stuck her head out of the car window: "I want big squid, and remember to make it extra spicy, but the rest can be mildly spicy."
Upon hearing her voice, Shen Jingchuan strode back.
He reached into the back seat of the car, grabbed a hat, and slammed it on Wen Yan's head.
"You're a big star now, be careful not to get recognized."
"I'm not," Wen Yan said, but still put on her hat in front of the mirror. "You're more popular than me now, so you should be the one to be careful."
"I don't need it."
Shen Jingchuan ignored the advice and turned to continue towards the food stall.
Wen Yan put on another mask, then got out of the car and caught up with Shen Jingchuan.
"I'll go with you. I see there are a lot of people in front of each food stall, so we'll definitely have to wait a long time."
