Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot-Chapter 1139 - 673: Racing Down Si Family’s Street? That Wild Kid’s Not Bad
The icy wind roared in his ears, while his peripheral vision caught the sight of the white snow, pine forests, evergreen trees, skyscrapers, all stretched into wild strokes.
Jiang Chengsi, while test driving the car, received a call from the old house. Just his grandmother reminding him to come over for dinner earlier; it was his regular day to have dinner at the old house.
Considering the time left for test driving was not much, the car had just been modified, so he needed to thoroughly test its performance and limits. If any faults occurred, they could be corrected in time. However, he hadn’t raced in this eastern area before.
It was naturally necessary to choose a place with no speed limit, minimal traffic flow, wide roads, and far away from residential areas.
Thinking things over, he suddenly remembered a visit to the Si family’s place in Guandong in the past. They happened to be renovating their house, with some construction signs plastered around, causing very little traffic in the surrounding roads.
Aside from there, he really couldn’t find other good places for test driving.
...
At the Si family’s place
Mr. Si was in a good mood today because his daughter was personally cooking dinner for him. He was now staring at the chessboard, playing against himself.
Playing chess against oneself is quite challenging, requiring absolute quietness around. Just as he was pondering his chess strategy, suddenly a rumbling noise was heard outside.
The noise wasn’t loud, but the distinct roar of a motorcycle struck his eardrums, sounding like devilish music.
He frowned, thinking it was just a passing vehicle, the sound swiftly came and went.
When the sound faded away, he lowered his head to continue contemplating his chess strategy. Just as he had some thoughts, the sound came again.
He tightened the chess piece in his hand:
It was clearly a deliberate provocation at his door.
He took a deep breath, let it go, certainly just a kid, no point in bothering. But after happening repeatedly, he truly couldn’t stand it anymore.
He immediately called for someone:
"Go out and see, who is riding the motorcycle outside? Tell them to leave at once."
After the Si family members went out, they soon ran back: "Sir..."
"Who was that kid?"
"We went out and just after calling out once, he rode away on the motorcycle."
"..." Gone?
"Don’t know where he was from, circling outside several times, don’t know what he was up to? Quite strange." The Si family found it confusing, he seemed aimless, they even thought the person might have come purposely to create noise.
"Was it a motorcycle?"
Someone busy in the kitchen, upon hearing ’motorcycle,’ immediately put down their work and listened closely.
"Yes, it was a motorcycle."
"Couldn’t see who it was?"
"Wearing a helmet, couldn’t tell."
"Jiang Chengsi?" Mr. Si knew there was only Jiang Chengsi who rode motorcycles.
"It shouldn’t be Fourth Master, Fourth Master likes heavy motorcycles, this vehicle had a relatively small frame, not quite his style."
Pictures of Jiang Chengsi riding motorcycles were captured in Beijing, men tend to have a special connection with vehicles, almost everyone in Beijing knew his style.
"Who could it be then?" Mr. Si frowned, his thoughts disturbed, losing interest in playing chess. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
He silently cursed this motorcycle kid in his heart.
**
Jiang Chengsi wasn’t simply avoiding, once the test drive was finished, he naturally had to leave.
The modified car indeed had no issues, but once the speed ramped up, the noise increased; even with a helmet on, he felt his ears buzzing, surely the young lady would find it unbearable.
He had to install a noise reduction device, he was overly meticulous about the car; at the moment, he couldn’t bother with the dinner agreement with the grandmother in the old house, driving straight back to the repair shop.
Even the owner became speechless, the car didn’t make much sound.
"Reduce noise for such minimal sound?"
"Beginners riding it would find their ears very uncomfortable."
"Fourth Brother, when are you going to bring Fourth Sister-in-law here for us to meet?" The owner squatted by him, smiling knowingly.
Jiang Chengsi lifted his eyelids, glancing at him, "I’m not in that kind of relationship with her."
"Not now, but who knows in the future."
"Why are you so noisy."
"..."
When Jiang Chengsi reached the old house, everyone had already finished eating. His grandmother was sitting in the living room, watching a local public affairs program, where the host was revealing a dispute caused by an object falling from high up.
The grandmother sat upright, watching Jiang Chengsi enter the room, not even sparing him a glance.
"Grandma!" Someone solicitously approached.
"Fourth Brother, have you eaten?" Tang Wan happened to come downstairs, "Do you need me to heat up the meal for you?"
Before Jiang Chengsi could reply, his grandmother interrupted, "He has hands and feet, can’t he heat the food himself?"
