Chapter 257: Chapter 147: This Is What You Call a Commuter Car?

Seven hours up the mountain, half an hour down.

At 5:00 PM, the group of five arrived back at the entrance of the scenic area.

Lin Xi and Zhu Jingheng didn’t notice that the way Zheng Yi and Gao Wenwen looked at Xu Yun had changed, becoming more reserved and restrained.

Zhu Jingheng asked, "Teacher Gao, are you going to ride with me, or..."

"I’ll ride with Xu Yun."

Gao Wenwen said, "I’m not going to be a third wheel for you two."

"Xu Yun, you drove here too?"

Zhu Jingheng said in surprise, "I thought you took a ride here. I was going to suggest you ride with Zheng Yi, and Teacher Gao could come with us."

"I have a car to get around in."

Xu Yun said, "As long as Teacher Gao doesn’t mind that it’s not very good."

"..." Gao Wenwen was left speechless.

’A man who wears a watch worth over three million, his car is going to be bad?’

Now she was dying to know what kind of car Xu Yun drove, and if it was better than the class president’s.

’If it is better, this is going to be good.’

’The class president’s face is probably going to be slapped silly.’

She felt a little happy just thinking about it.

She didn’t know why. ’Is it because I hate the rich?’

Zheng Yi’s mood was complex, and he still hadn’t fully processed everything.

On the way to the parking lot, Zheng Yi walked up to Xu Yun and said, "This whole time, you were just laughing at us, weren’t you?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Alright, you can stop pretending."

Zheng Yi said, exasperated, "When you referred that sales associate to me, you knew I would find out you were rich."

"I never pretended. In fact, I was being very low-key."

Xu Yun said, "You were the ones who didn’t believe it, assuming I was poor the moment you saw me."

"Then what you told Gao Wenwen on the mountain, that you have a hundred million, was that true too?"

"It’s true."

"Fuck!"

After hearing that, Zheng Yi’s thousand words and ten thousand phrases merged into a single word.

"So, that means the performance show I worked overtime to stand guard for last night... you arranged that too?"

"Mhm."

Xu Yun nodded. "My mom wanted to see a molten iron fireworks show, so I hired someone to put one on for her."

"..." Zheng Yi was speechless.

He had thought Zhu Jingheng was a major capitalist, but it turned out there was an even bigger "dog capitalist" hidden right beside him.

A net worth of tens of millions and a net worth of hundreds of millions are two completely different concepts, a world of difference!

The class president might seem awesome in their eyes, but in Xu Yun’s eyes, he was probably nothing.

But in terms of conduct, Xu Yun was much more low-key, speaking humbly and wearing ordinary brands.

If he hadn’t revealed it himself, no one would have ever known he was so rich.

Zheng Yi asked curiously, "Does Gao Wenwen know about this?"

"She knows."

"What was her reaction?"

Xu Yun smiled. "Pretty much the same as you. She’s become much more reserved around me."

"Ugh~" Zheng Yi couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

’Of course she’s more reserved.’

’Before, she spoke to you with a sense of superiority. Now, she speaks to you with a sense of inferiority.’

The positions between them had completely reversed.

Now, only Zhu Jingheng and Lin Xi were still in the dark. But as soon as they got to the parking lot and saw Xu Yun’s car, they would probably figure it out.

Zheng Yi really wanted to know if Lin Xi would feel a pang of regret when she suddenly found out how rich Xu Yun actually was.

’Regret not choosing Xu Yun in college, regret not giving him a chance today.’

’No, wait. Maybe it’s like he said before—he’s surrounded by so many beautiful women that he’s grown tired of them.’

’In his eyes, Lin Xi is probably just another pretty woman. He might not even be interested in her.’

Soon, everyone arrived at the parking area.

Lin Xi looked at the black Bentley Continental coupe next to them and said, "Huh, this car is still here."

"Judging by the license plate, it doesn’t seem to be local."

Zhu Jingheng said, "Maybe they’re tourists who haven’t come back down yet. They might be planning to tour Taoyuan Mountain at night."

Zheng Yi and Gao Wenwen seemed to think of something and looked at Xu Yun in unison.

’Holy shit, this car can’t be his, can it?’

After speaking, Zhu Jingheng turned to Xu Yun and said, "Where’s your car? Is it parked far away?"

"Not far, it’s right next to you."

Zhu Jingheng and Lin Xi automatically ignored the Bentley and glanced at the small car to the right, which was a domestic Geely.

It probably cost around a hundred thousand or so.

Zhu Jingheng said, "Geely’s domestic cars have gotten pretty good in recent years. Their technology and quality have improved a lot. They look good, they’re cheap, and they’re a great value."

"My dear class president."

Xu Yun smiled. "Although I’m also quite patriotic and have a good opinion of domestic cars, that’s not my car."

"It’s not that one?"

Zhu Jingheng asked, confused, "Then which one is yours? The second one next to it?"

"Class President, could it be the one to your left?"

"The left?"

Zhu Jingheng looked at the Bentley Continental and couldn’t help but laugh. "Teacher Gao, what are you joking about? How could this car possibly be..."

He didn’t even finish his sentence before the expression on his face froze.

Because Xu Yun had already walked up, unlocked the car door, and, looking at him, said, "Actually, this one really is mine."

"..." Zhu Jingheng was speechless.

’This car... it’s actually his.’

’This is what you call a car to get around in?’

’Well, I’ll be damned. You’re playing the wolf in sheep’s clothing with me!’

Zhu Jingheng thought back to how he had offered to find the man a job with a salary of 5,000 a month, and his face burned with shame.

’I’ve really made a fool of myself this time!’

Lin Xi looked at Xu Yun, then at the Bentley coupe in front of him, and was also completely dumbfounded.

Or rather, she couldn’t quite believe it.

Zheng Yi shook his head and walked toward his own car. ’Whoever wants to ride in this old junker can go right ahead.’

Amidst Lin Xi and Zhu Jingheng’s shock, Xu Yun turned to Gao Wenwen and said, "Weren’t you going to ride with me? Are you coming or not?"
