Chapter 109: Study my foot!
What’s awesome? Being able to get a Maserati with a few sentences, without much effort. That’s awesome!
What’s cool? Owning the Maserati, but not driving it. Pushing it and running with open arms and a perked up backside. That’s cool!
An unprecedented traffic jam occurred directly in front of Qingshui School. As every single vehicle on the road had stopped here, every pedestrian stopped walking to take a look, staring at Ling Yun, dumbfounded.
They were watching Ling Yun use the most unbelievable method in history to reverse the Maserati.
Although it’s said to be an unbelievable method, Ling Yun’s method was actually very simple. He pushed the Maserati and ran to the school entrance. Then, he lowered his body, grabbing on to the chassis of the car with both hands, instantly lifting up the Maserati.
Ling Yun carried the back of the Maserati, sidestepped five steps, and faced the car towards the school gate. He gently laid down the car, perked up his backside, and upon letting out a loud cry, he pushed the car right into the campus!
“What an eye-opening day it has been. I’ve been watching over the gates of Qingshui High for so many years, yet I’ve never seen anyone push a Maserati into the campus…”
Qingshui High’s security guard, an old man in his 60s, mumbled to himself, eyes and mouth wide open.
Ling Yun and Murong Feixue had been outside the school for only about three minutes. Now, it had been ten minutes since the recess break. It was when the school was most crowded!
“Oh my gosh, isn’t that the Maserati?”
“Yes, how did Ling Yun push it back? Where’d the pretty lady in the car go to?”
“Oh my, from crazily carrying a sandbag and running on the track last week to pushing a Maserati this week? How cool can Ling Yun get?”
“Could the Maserati be a gift from that pretty lady? But why did he have to push it here?”
“Idiot, that’s obviously because Ling Yun doesn’t have a driving license and does not know how to drive!”
Suddenly, there was an uproar in the school. Those who had seen Ling Yun leaving with Murong Feixue earlier had even more conjectures.
Ling Yun turned a deaf ear on these remarks. Soon, he pushed the Maserati back to his class’ block, where he had parked just now.
“Boss, Boss…”
Just as Ling Yun stood up, he saw Tang Meng running towards him, shouting in a queer manner.
“Yes?” Ling Yun asked Tang Meng, calm and composed.
“What… what… what’s with the car?” Tang Meng pointed at the Maserati and asked Ling Yun in astonishment.
Ling Yun laughed cheekily, “Didn’t I say I’ll get a sports car before the entrance exams? Now I have it!”
Tang Meng was dumbfounded instantly. Why does this sound like a fantasy story? He got a Maserati just like that? Isn’t that too fast?
Ling Yun smiled and threw the keys to Tang Meng, then said, “I shall give this car to Lingyu. Lock it for me, and drive it to my place in the afternoon.”
Thereafter, Ling Yun went up to the classroom, disregarding Tang Meng who was left there dumbfounded.
Along the classroom corridors, everyone was still discussing how Ling Yun had left the school in a Maserati, and now that he had pushed it to school, everyone seemed clueless, not knowing what had happened at all.
Grade 12 Class 6.
Zhang Ling, from the corridors, had witnessed Ling Yun push the Maserati to the class block and was stunned momentarily. Then, she ran straight into the classroom.
“Shanshan, Shanshan, that Maserati is back here again. Ling Yun pushed it back!”
“What? Pushed it back? What about the lady?”
Cao Shanshan had just been upset after Ling Yun had gone onto the car five minutes ago and now, she was left dumbfounded upon hearing the news from Zhang Ling.
“The lady? Didn’t see her. Anyway, she’s not in the car so I assume that she left…” Zhang Ling murmured to herself.
Cao Shanshan, full of suspicions, could not figure out the reason Ling Yun had pushed the Maserati back.
“I saw the car keys in Ling Yun’s hand. He probably pushed it back because he doesn’t know how to drive…”
Zhang Ling thought of something and told Cao Shanshan.
Cao Shanshan kept thinking and she finally thought of the least likely possibility, she expressionlessly said, with her mouth wide open, “Could the lady possibly have given Ling Yun that Maserati as a gift?”
“What? That’s not possible, is it? I came across that car on the internet and it’s worth more than 4 million! Give it to Ling Yun as a gift? She would at most lend it to him to drive. Either that or the car broke down, so she got Ling Yun to help her push it back to school.”
Zhang Ling shook her head vigorously. She did not believe that the lady would be so generous as to give away a Maserati worth 4 million. That’s crazy!
Cao Shanshan laughed bitterly, “How can a Maserati break down so easily? Do you think that it’s made of paper? Furthermore, if that lady did lend Ling Yun the car, she would’ve sent him back to school in the car and not make him push it back!”
Upon hearing Cao Shanshan’s analysis, Zhang Ling thought it made sense, but she still did not believe that anyone on Earth would give a Maserati worth 4 million dollars to Ling Yun!
“He’s coming up. We’ll find out after I ask him about it, hmph!” Zhang Ling, tired of racking her brains, decided to confront Ling Yun directly to find out what was going on.
Ling Yun walked into the classroom.
“Hey, Ling Yun, why did you push that car back? What happened to the pretty lady who was looking for you?”
Upon seeing Ling Yun enter the classroom, Zhang Ling impatiently questioned him instantly with a sour tone.
“I can’t drive. What else can I do but push it back? That lady left!”
Ling Yun walked towards his seat with his right hand in his pocket, firmly holding onto a million dollar cheque.
“That lady lent you the car? What’s your relationship with her? Why did she lend you such a good car?”
Zhang Ling once again displayed her detailed questioning techniques similar to that of a reporter, questioning Ling Yun closely.
In the meantime, every single student from Grade 12 Class 6 gathered in the classroom. The questions which Zhang Ling asked were what they couldn’t figure out. As such, they were ready to carefully listen to what Ling Yun had to say.
Cao Shanshan was raptly focused as well, wanting to hear how Ling Yun would explain himself.
Just as Ling Yun was about to say that the car wasn’t lent to him and that it was a gift, he suddenly realized that he was in a difficult position and it would be better to keep a low-profile. Hence, he did not answer Zhang Ling and proceeded to pick up a geography book before starting to read absorbedly.
The car and money were in his hands anyway. It was up to the rest to have their own conjectures.
Zhang Ling let out an angry groan abruptly as Ling Yun ignored all three of her questions, then turned around and returns to her seat.
“Sigh…” a disappointed sigh echoed through the classroom.
A few minutes later, it was finally the start of the third afternoon lesson and the campus quietened down.
…
Shen Li Hospital.
Murong Feixue returned to Murong Wenshi’s ward.
She stood in front of the door and took more than ten deep breaths in a row before soothing her burning anger and regaining her usual facial expression.
“Grandpa, I’m back.” Murong Feixue pushed open the ward door and greeted Murong Wenshi.
Murong Wenshi immediately turned around and asked, “How was it, Feixue? Did you see Ling Yun?”
The name Ling Yun itself instantly enraged Murong Feixue, but since Grandpa was still lying in bed, she could only put on a fake smile. She said, “Grandpa, I saw him. No worries, I’ve settled everything.”
“Settled everything? How did you settle it? Tell Grandpa.” Murong Wenshi grinned. He trusted his granddaughter’s capabilities in handling things.
“Um… To repay his kindness, I gave him a million dollars In addition, I gave him the new Maserati I bought. Is that good enough?”
Murong Feixue thought she would not be able to hide it anyway, so she might as well tell her Grandpa directly, so as to give him peace of mind.
“Hm, around five million… To us, that’s just the price of a good piece of diamond. But to him, it could be a life-changer. However, just five million for my life still seems a bit miserly…”
Murong Wenshi nodded his head and coughed softly while on his sickbed, then continued, “How about this? Pay him a visit a few days later and let him know that once I’m discharged, I’ll personally pay his family a visit. If his family has any difficulties or needs, we’ll do what we can to help.”
“What? Grandpa, you…” Murong Feixue wondered why her Grandpa was still concerned about repaying his kindness even after giving him five million.
No matter what, she did not want to see such a shameless person like Ling Yun again.
“Let’s agree on that then. It’s fate that he saved my life. *cough*…” Murong Wenshi finished his sentence, then shut his eyes to rest.
Murong Feixue did not dare to argue with her own grandfather. She could only murmur resentfully, “Hmph, where did this shameless guy get all his luck from?”
…
Meanwhile, Qingshui City’s number one spoiled brat, Li Qing Chuan, just landed in Qingshui Airport and walked out.
Tang Meng was right. After Li Qing Chuan heard Tang Meng say that he was not going to interfere in the affairs regarding Xue Mei Ning last night, he immediately booked a morning flight to rush down from Beijing today.
He dialed Tang Meng’s phone while walking.
“Hey, where are you? Hurry up to the airport and fetch me to Yi Zhong, I want to question Little Ning face to face. I need to ask her who in the world is so daring to woo my wife, and even leave you helpless about it.
Tang Meng could sense something bad upon receiving that call, but he still picked it up. He did not have a choice. He couldn’t offend Li Qing Chuan.
“Big Brother Chuan, I’m still having lessons right now, it’s really inconvenient. I have to study for my entrance exams…”
Of course, Tang Meng was not having lessons. He was sitting in the Maserati, smoking contentedly!
“Study for entrance exams? Study my foot! Hurry up and get over here, if you’re not here in fifteen minutes, you’ll get it from me!” Li Qing Chuan exclaimed then hung up.
“Oh! Things are getting interesting!”
Tang Meng stared at his phone, shaking his head as he smiled bitterly. He then started the engine of the Maserati.
