Mu Yiran pouted and looked at the two ugly faces, "Now you're envious of anything big, right?"
Then Mu Yiran glanced at the shoulders of the two skinny monkeys, and finally turned to the car. She nodded in realization and said, "That's right, we should be envious."
“.......
She chuckled meaningfully, "Sister, I have a good temper and don't recommend it. After all, some big things, things, if you're not born with them, you'll never have them in this lifetime."
"..."
Before the two men could react, Mu Yiran rolled up the car window. With the one-way window blocking everything, they couldn't see anything. The next second, the light turned green, and Mu Yiran stepped on the gas and sped away from the Audi, turning left.
The other party didn't dare to accelerate and rush up. If they crashed into them, they wouldn't be able to afford even a fraction of the damages, so they could only let the G-Class drive arrogantly in front of them.
Shi Youxi glanced at the rearview mirror, noted down the license plate of the car he had just seen, and then sent a message to the people in the Shi family.
The guy on the other end replied instantly: 【Yes, young master, everything's been arranged perfectly.】
Mu Yiran drove off smartly for several dozen meters, slowed down at an intersection, and then said to Shi Youxi in a smug tone, "How was that? Pretty cool, right? Fast enough!"
Seeing the woman's smug look, Shi Youxi nodded and smiled, "Sister, you're so cool! You are indeed very fast, but..."
Mu Yiran only wanted to hear praise right now, so she interrupted him as soon as she heard him say it, "No, no, but I am really handsome..."
Just as she was about to speed up, a police motorcycle caught up from behind, stopped Mu Yiran, and knocked on the window.
Mu Yiran poked her head in with a puzzled look: "Hello, police officer, what's up?"
Mu Yiran received a traffic ticket from the traffic police.
"..."
Shi Youxi met the woman's innocent and confused face and revealed the cruel truth: "It's because my sister forgot to turn on the lights again."
Mu Yiran crumpled the ticket in her hand: "...Why didn't you remind me?"
Shi Youxi's eyes crinkled at the corners, and she smiled mischievously: "I've never seen my sister show off her coolness before. I was so engrossed in watching that I forgot to mention it."
"..."
She's the perfect example of someone who gets struck by lightning for being pretentious.
The traffic policeman coldly handed Mu Yiran a pen: "Changing lanes and overtaking without signaling, one point deducted, one hundred yuan fine. Any problems?"
Mu Yiran: "...It's a bit expensive."
Mu Yiran could see the traffic cop rolling his eyes behind his sunglasses. "...After all, not everyone can get five tickets in two months like you, Miss."
Mu Yiran: "!"
Five times in two months?!
They're talking about the original form, right?
It seems that besides the mole on their noses, they also have this in common: neither of them is very good at driving.
A black van drove past, and inside, Chen Shu sat languidly, legs crossed, watching the scene outside the window. "So, female drivers just aren't good enough..."
The agent driving the car turned his head and glanced at him, saying, "What are you looking at?"
They had just been standing right next to this white G-Class and witnessed its altercation with the Audi.
Recalling the pretty face that had just peeked out from the G-Wagon, Chen Shu commented, "She is quite beautiful, though."
The agent rolled his eyes and looked at the man in the rearview mirror, saying, "Don't you dare do anything reckless again. Your status is different now than before. There are so many people watching you. You better keep your hands clean behind the scenes!"
The other party nodded nonchalantly, and the agent continued, "Although we haven't signed a contract yet, I've recorded it on my phone. The Shi Group shouldn't go back on its word. You should seize this opportunity. Although the Shi Group isn't involved in the entertainment industry, their influence in Libya is much greater, which will greatly help you in your future foray into overseas film and television."
Chen Shu looked out the window for a while before replying, "But why are they sending us to the Cheng Group?"
"I had arranged a short film for you before, but I had to turn it down today because I had a more important script reading session. But I didn't expect the people from the Shi family to say that the prerequisite for the collaboration was that you had to go back to film. I don't understand. Maybe Shi Yan is trying to please his new wife."
Chen Shu said calmly, "Is that so..."
He had met Shi Yan once before when he was an exchange student abroad; Shi Yan and his ex-wife were attending the university's anniversary ceremony.
The way Shi Yan looked at his ex-wife was unusually focused. Everyone else was just decoration in his eyes; only when he looked at that woman did Shi Yan's eyes come alive.
Would someone like that be the type to find a new love and forget their old one so quickly?
...
The traffic was getting heavier and heavier, and at 9:10, Mu Yiran finally drove into the Cheng Group's parking lot.
Shi Youxi glanced at his phone, where Shi Si had started verbally attacking him again.
Convert to text:
Where the hell are you guys?!
Cut it off.
【?! Wasn't it supposed to be a rush? You give me 18 minutes of life-or-death speed?! Damn it—】
Cut it off.
[Shouldn't Cheng Ran's racing skills have arrived long ago? Did you guys drive all the way to H country?!]
There's no need to cut the last sentence, because it's too short.
Shi Si: [If I ever work for you again, I'm a dog.]
The two were in the elevator when Mu Yiran heard his buzzing sound and couldn't help but glance at it. She didn't see anything but an 18-minute note.
"......"
Mu Yiran didn't know who Shi Youxi was chatting with, but the conversation was definitely about criticizing her driving skills. Mu Yiran still wanted to clear her name.
"Actually, if it weren't for those two men on the road, and being stopped by the traffic police and given a ticket, we would have arrived long ago."
Shi Youxi hadn't had a chance to speak yet.
"Ding." The elevator doors opened.
The voices from the hallway came first: "My sister-in-law's driving skills are still as good as ever."
Mu Yiran stood in the elevator, staring at a couple outside. The image of the Cheng family's family photo instantly flashed into her mind.
The two people in front of you are Cheng Ran's second brother and sister-in-law, who are also Su Tian's son and daughter-in-law.
Cheng Li and Li Ziqi.
Li Ziqi, an actress, was dressed in a Chanel-style outfit. With her arms crossed, she said sarcastically, "I just drove by and saw that my sister-in-law got another parking ticket. It's time for my sister-in-law to mature a bit. After all, your every move affects our family."
Our family.
Mu Yiran glanced at Cheng Li, who remained silent, and it seemed he tacitly agreed with what his wife had said.
We are us, and you are you.
They are not family.
Unlike his elder brother Cheng Yuan's honest and kind personality, this couple was quite harsh on the original owner of this body. Mu Yiran read Cheng Li's WeChat chat history and found that his words were full of belittling and humiliation towards the original owner of this body.
He kept reminding Cheng Ran that she was just an illegitimate child and shouldn't even think about coming back to take the family fortune.
Perhaps he has forgotten that he himself is also Su Tian's illegitimate son. It was only after Su Tian came to power that Cheng Li was included in the family genealogy. In terms of status, he and Cheng Ran are the same, neither of them is more noble than the other.
No matter how unhappy Mu Yiran was, she still had to greet him: "Second Brother, Hello Sister-in-law."
She raised her hand to lightly link arms with Shi Youxi, and the two of them exited the elevator.
Cheng Li glanced at the silent boy and asked, "And who is this?"
Mu Yiran rolled her eyes inwardly. She clearly knew who it was, so why pretend?
She remained expressionless, patting Shi Youxi's arm with a light laugh: "This is Shi Yan's son, Xiao Xi, and this is my second brother and sister-in-law."
Shi Youxi then put on a polite smile and greeted the two of them, "Hello, Uncle and Aunt."
He didn't address the other person according to their seniority, and both of their faces darkened simultaneously.
Mu Yiran felt secretly pleased.
As expected of her little beauty, she's so sensible!
Just as Cheng Li was about to make a sarcastic remark, someone came out of the work area. His expression changed, and he instantly adopted the demeanor of a composed older brother: "Alright, go in first. You've been so late, making that big star wait for ages."
Mu Yiran ignored these words, only surprised that Chen Shu had arrived so quickly.
Shi's employees are really efficient.
Thinking of this, she secretly gave Shi Youxi a look that said, "Your employees are pretty good."
Shi Youxi understood what she meant: My sister is praising me again.
He leaned closer to Mu Yiran, hoping for some actual praise, but she suddenly released his wrist and pulled him away.
Shi Youxi was taken aback, realizing that her sister was keeping her distance from outsiders, just as they had agreed beforehand.
Shi Youxi agreed at the time.
But an inescapable sense of unease still welled up in his heart.
This feeling of displeasure was further aggravated when Shi Youxi saw that it was a man walking towards her sister, and her face immediately darkened.
When Chen Shu saw Mu Yiran clearly, his eyes lit up. Wasn't this the female driver from before?
The agent introduced him, "Come here, Chen Shu, this is Ms. Cheng. Isn't she a great beauty as I said?"
Mu Yiran smiled professionally: "Hello, I'm Cheng Ran. I'm very happy to have this opportunity to cooperate."
Chen Shu secretly sized up the woman in front of him. She had fair skin, striking bone structure, and wore no makeup except for a bright red lipstick. She was stunningly beautiful and aloof.
She was even more beautiful than he had imagined.
Chen Shu felt a surge of emotion, his interest intensified, and he extended his hand toward the woman with the gentle smile that his fans had praised countless times.
"It is my honor to have the opportunity to work with Mr. Cheng."
He waited to hold Cheng Ran's fair and delicate hands, preparing to gently caress them and send her flirtatious glances, when in the next instant, a hand with distinct knuckles reached out and grabbed him directly.
Shi Youxi's smile didn't reach his eyes, and he tightened his grip: "Uncle Chen Shu, what a coincidence, I'm also one of your business partners."
Chen Shu's face turned white from the boy's grip. He was startled and looked at Shi Youxi.
Upon closer inspection, Chen Shu could see the gloom and displeasure hidden in the boy's eyes.
Aha...
Could this boy be jealous of his stepmother?
Chen Shu's lips curled up.
Surprisingly… it was the kind of thing where a man treats a woman.
