29: Chapter 29 Xinxin is home
They strolled around the campus for over an hour, with Xinxin acting like a tour guide, introducing various campus legends and anecdotes she had heard from upperclassmen.
Jiang Jing mostly listened quietly, asking questions only occasionally. This ordinary campus date was a stark contrast to the luxurious life he had experienced over the past few days, yet it was unexpectedly comfortable.
At noon, the two had lunch at a small restaurant near the school. Unlike the exquisite meals at the manor, there were only simple home-cooked dishes here, but Xinxin ate with particular relish.
"It's much better than the high-end restaurants!" She said, her mouth full as she shoveled braised pork from her bowl.
She really wasn't wrong. Some dishes in hotels were insanely expensive, and on top of that, didn't even taste that good; you could only say you couldn't appreciate them...
Jiang Jing smiled and wiped a grain of rice from the corner of her mouth: "Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."
After finishing their meal, the two walked slowly to the edge of the parking lot.
"Brother, look over there!" Xinxin suddenly exclaimed, pointing at the car.
Jiang Jing looked in the direction she was pointing and discovered a few young people by the roadside frantically taking pictures of their car, one of whom was even jumping up and down in excitement.
"Stay calm, it will be like this the whole way." Jiang Jing said, already used to it.
"That's not it!" Xinxin took out her phone and swiped quickly, "Look, we've already been posted on Douyin! The title is 'lamborghini veneno spotted in Rong City! A legendary car limited to 8 units worldwide!' It's only been uploaded for five minutes and already has tens of thousands of likes!"
Jiang Jing glanced at the phone screen; the video was quite clear, and one could clearly see the profiles of him and Xinxin. The comment section had already exploded:
"Holy crap! It really is a lamborghini veneno!"
"The owner looks so young!"
"The young lady in the passenger seat is so pretty!"
"Rong A·99999, this license plate can't be cheap, right?"
"Does the big shot need an accessory?"
"We're going to be famous." Jiang Jing said half-jokingly.
Xinxin, however, suddenly became nervous: "It's over, it's over, if my parents see this..."
"Don't worry." Jiang Jing comforted her, "There are thousands of videos like this every day; it's not that easy to be seen. Even if they do see it, just tell them it's edited."
Xinxin finally relaxed a little, but she kept staring at the number of likes on the phone as it continued to rise, her little face scrunched up.
Jiang Jing drove the car to the station; Xinxin had already bought the ticket.
"We're here." Jiang Jing parked the car and turned to Xinxin, "Do you need me to help you with your luggage?"
Xinxin shook her head and suddenly became unusually quiet. She lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her skirt.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Jing asked softly.
"Brother..." Xinxin's voice was somewhat choked with sobs, "I... I don't want to leave you..."
Jiang Jing only then noticed that her eyes were already red, with tiny teardrops hanging on her long eyelashes. He reached out and pulled her into his embrace, feeling the girl tremble slightly.
"Silly girl, it's not like we won't see each other again." He gently stroked her back, "Rong City is only so big; you can come whenever you want. After school starts, it will be even more convenient for us to meet."
"But..." Xinxin looked up, her eyes teary, "Will you forget me very soon? You're so rich, there must be many girls who are prettier and better than me..."
Jiang Jing interrupted her: "What nonsense are you talking about? You are my lucky star."
This was actually true. If it weren't for Xinxin, Jiang Jing wouldn't have obtained the system, so calling her a lucky star was no exaggeration.
Moreover, Jiang Jing still really liked a young beauty with zero charging times.
He took out his phone and performed a few operations, "I transferred some money to you; it should be enough for your expenses during this time. Buy whatever you need, don't deprive yourself."
Xinxin's phone vibrated once. She took it out and looked, her eyes widening instantly: "Five... five hundred thousand?! That's too much! I can't take it!"
"Keep it." Jiang Jing held down her hand that was about to return it, "Just treat it as the college tuition and living expenses I'm giving you in advance. If it's not enough, tell me."
Xinxin's tears finally fell: "Brother... why are you so good to me..."
"Because you're worth it." Jiang Jing wiped away her tears and kissed her forehead, "Alright, stop crying; if you keep crying, you won't be pretty anymore."
Xinxin broke into a smile through her tears and suddenly pounced on Jiang Jing, hugging him tightly: "Brother, I like you! I really like you so much!"
[Lin Yuxin favorability + 1] (Currently 92)
[Lucky draw count + 1]
Jiang Jing looked at the system prompt and felt very happy inside.
For a young and pretty girl like Xinxin, as long as you are truly good to her, her favorability will skyrocket.
People used to say that you could win over a girlfriend with a bowl of mixed noodles or a meal of dumplings; that really wasn't a joke.
If you've been struggling in society for a few years, wanting to move the other person would require paying a lot more.
"I like you too." He replied softly, and this was from the bottom of his heart.
One can only say that Jiang Jing is a philanderer (doge).
Before parting, Xinxin took the initiative to kiss Jiang Jing; this kiss was lingering and affectionate, carrying reluctance and a promise. When she finally pushed the car door open and left, the way she kept looking back every few steps made a strange emotion ripple in Jiang Jing's heart.
Not until Xinxin's figure disappeared at the station did Jiang Jing start the car and leave.
Along the way, Jiang Jing's car was unobstructed.
Surrounding drivers, seeing Jiang Jing's car from far away, would all bow their heads and curse, then silently slow down and keep away from this thing.
For them, they didn't even need to know the model of this car; just looking at its cool and explosive appearance, they knew not to get too close easily.
Driving on the wide road, Jiang Jing couldn't help but marvel at how good the quality of drivers in Rong City was!
Suddenly, Jiang Jing's phone rang.
Jiang Jing parked the car to the side and took out his phone to check; it was a message from Li Xue: "Darling, I have a class reunion next week. Do you have time to accompany me?"
Accompanied by a cute emoji, Jiang Jing unconsciously revealed a smile.
"Of course, just call me when the time comes." Jiang Jing agreed directly.
After all, he was really idle now; his main task every day was to accompany various girls and grind favorability.
It couldn't be more carefree.
Not long after Jiang Jing parked the car, someone noticed this exaggerated supercar. Some people started pointing and whispering, and more people took out their phones to film. Soon, their car was surrounded.
"A lamborghini veneno Roadster limited to 8 units worldwide! Brothers, did I see that right? This really is a lamborghini veneno!" A loud male voice came through the noisy crowd.
Jiang Jing looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man wearing a black T-shirt holding a selfie stick, excitedly explaining to his phone camera. He was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a professional camera hanging around his neck; one look and you could tell he was a seasoned car enthusiast.
"This car is equipped with a 6.5-liter V12 naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 750 horsepower, and 0-100 acceleration takes only 2.9 seconds! The domestic price exceeds 75 million! And it's priceless in the market!"
The man continued to talk excitedly to his phone, "I didn't expect to see the real car in Rong City! Brothers, look at this carbon fiber body! This aerodynamic kit! This... holy crap! The door is opening!"
As the scissor door slowly rose, Jiang Jing walked out from the driver's seat. The scene instantly went quiet for a few seconds, and then erupted into an even louder clamor.
