Chapter 78 Do you want to hear what you have to say?

Ling Yue retched dryly a couple of times.

"Miss!" Cheng Jiao sprinted over.

Her large bag was fully stocked.

She first took out a thermos, poured half a cup of hot water, and fed it to Ling Yue.

Then, she took out some motion sickness ointment.

The cool scent, inhaled and exhaled, soothed the discomfort in her stomach and the dizziness in her head.

Ling Yue quickly recovered.

"Miss, are you alright now?" Cheng Jiao asked anxiously.

Ling Yue shook her head.

She was carsick, and Lin Poluo wasn't doing much better.

Zang Lanyi had been showing off all sorts of skills just now.

That guy was still slumped over the steering wheel, having not yet stepped out of the car.

Xun Ji ran over and knocked on the car window.

"What are you playing dead for, hiding in the car? Get out here!

If you're sick, go see your family doctor. This is a racetrack, not some place for you to go chasing around!

You'd better pray my friend is alright."

Xun Ji let out a cold snort, his tone shifting, "Otherwise, I'll go pay Uncle Lin a visit."

The guy was being very loud.

Lin Poluo immediately lifted his head.

He yanked the car door open and rushed out, shaking so hard he was practically trembling, his eyes unable to focus, yet he was still shouting, "Who are you threatening!"

It looked like they were about to start shoving each other again.

You Mingzhi covered his forehead and rushed over, immediately stepping in to mediate.

He managed to calm them down over there.

Ling Yue wasn't going to let it slide.

You made me carsick, so I have to make you contribute some resentment value.

That 'damage a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred of your own' move earlier had left her feeling extremely annoyed.

She had to get her own back.

Ling Yue straightened up and took two steps forward, "Did you buy your driver's license? You drive like a crab."

You Mingzhi covered his face: Good heavens, he couldn't stop her, he really couldn't stop her!

Lin Poluo pushed Xun Ji aside and walked toward Ling Yue, looking like he was ready for a showdown.

But his head was spinning, and he was seeing double. He began mocking the air, "Your bodyguard must be a professional. I, an amateur, got out here myself—so I lost, I lost. If you've got the guts, come out and race me yourself."

Look at that smug, petty face!

"Born ugly, blame your genes. No ability, blame your luck. Can't go to the bathroom, blame gravity. Lost the race, blame heaven and earth, but never look at your own problems. It's everyone's misfortune that someone as absurd as you has entered the SX Club."

Lin Poluo actually forgot to be angry because the thing actually rhymed quite well.

"Stubborn as a dead duck."

That was all he could manage after a long while.

Judging by his tone and expression, he looked like a grade-schooler who had lost a squabble at the school gate.

Ling Yue said calmly, "A bat with chicken feathers stuck to it—what kind of bird do you think you are?"

"Do you even know how to drive a sports car? Look at you panting!" Lin Poluo was getting flustered, starting to ramble incoherently.

Ling Yue was expressionless, "You're swearing brotherhood all by yourself—who do you think you are? Eat less salt; look how idle you are."

[resentment value: 59%]

"You, do you even have the money to buy it!"

Lin Poluo was already dizzy, and being bombarded by her rapid-fire words left him stunned, driving him toward a state of exasperation.

Ling Yue remained in her 'don't call me even if someone dies' state, "You have no shame, yet you dare to shout so loudly."

He had no moves left. Truly, he was out of moves.

Lin Poluo poked his cheek with his tongue, "Fine, I'll remember you!"

Ling Yue: "You don't even have a brain, what could you possibly remember?"

[resentment value: 60%]

Lin Poluo's eyes widened. This woman, this damn woman! He really wanted to sew her mouth shut.

This fit of anger actually cleared up Lin Poluo's vision.

What was up with the people nearby? Why were they all looking at him like he was an idiot?

"What are you looking at!" he roared at the bystanders, then staggered off the track.

He was going to die of anger. He was going to buy a book on how to curse at people; next time they met, he absolutely wouldn't lose!

A qualified opponent would pull out their phone at this moment.

Xun Ji was very excited, "Hahahaha, Ling Yue, you're too strong! You cursed that dog-thing until he ran away in a panic. I recorded it, I recorded it! Next time I face him, I'll just play the video. I'll make him die of anger!"

The expression with which You Mingzhi looked at Ling Yue was as if he were looking at some kind of treasure.

After this, that kid Lin Poluo would probably doubt his life and would definitely need a while to recover. The club could enjoy a brief period of peace again.

But Ling Yue stood there frowning.

After all that effort, she had only managed to squeeze out this much. The resentment value was too low, and she didn't want to bother with it.

She turned around and went to test another car.

Xun Ji chased after Ling Yue, "Bro, ah, no! Sis, are you selling your bodyguard?"

What kind of talk was that? Ling Yue looked at him with a strange expression.

"Are you toxic? Do you want to get cursed at too?"

"Ah, no, no, I was just asking." Xun Ji's face immediately turned terrified. Getting into a cursing match with Ling Yue? Not unless he had eaten too much.

Xun Ji continued, "Her skills are awesome; they're on par with professional race car drivers."

Never mind Xun Ji; almost all the onlookers had been stunned just now.

You Mingzhi also wanted to ask if she could leave the person at the club. The club was just short of someone with skills who could assist in filming videos to post online.

Ling Yue turned back to look at Zang Lanyi, who was momentarily stunned before explaining, "I've had contact with racing; I've won a few competitions."

"Then why did you stop doing it later?" Ling Yue asked curiously.

Xun Ji and You Mingzhi both had gossiping expressions as well.

Zang Lanyi scratched her face and said honestly, "I earned enough money, and I wanted to lie flat."

Ling Yue's mouth opened slightly. So, she called a job with a daily wage of 5,000 yuan 'lying flat'?!

Do you want to hear what you are saying?

It was only because she was a super rich woman now; if any other worker heard this, they would be so angry they'd ascend to heaven on the spot.

Xun Ji gave a thumbs up, "Admirable! Carefree! You have character! Cool!"

Zang Lanyi wore a wary expression and moved a few steps away from him, "I still won't be your bodyguard."

Xun Ji was puzzled, "Why?"

Zang Lanyi suddenly looked at Ling Yue, "Boss, can I say it?"

Ling Yue thought to herself that this somehow involved her too.

"Speak."

Zang Lanyi felt reassured and boldly said to Xun Ji, "Your combat power is low, and you like to look for trouble. Being your bodyguard might keep me very busy."

Xun Ji: "..."

Ling Yue: "..."

The outside world said that Xun Ji was cold, liked to keep a straight face, and was sparing with his words. But recently, his filter had been a bit shattered. His persona was also about to collapse.

You Mingzhi straightened his collar and spoke sincerely, "Then what about me?"

Zang Lanyi shook her head without thinking, "You won't do either."

"Why?"

"There are too many people here, and I like peace and quiet."

You Mingzhi: "..."

Zang Lanyi's emotional intelligence suddenly went back online, "Besides, I really like my current boss; it's impossible for me to jump ship."

Ling Yue rubbed her chin, "You... have good taste!"

Zang Lanyi chuckled. Who was it that said she was silly earlier? She was quite shrewd!

*

After test-driving 18 cars, Ling Yue only took a liking to 15 of them.

She deleted 3 cars from the test-drive list.

Then she handed the tablet to You Mingzhi, "Let's go with these 15 cars; I'll buy them."

You Mingzhi: ???

"Ahem... 15... 15 cars?" He was stunned.

Ling Yue nodded, "Yes, 15 cars. Boss You, please prepare the contracts as soon as possible. If any car owners need to be present in person, hurry up and contact them."

Xun Ji hadn't recovered from what happened earlier, and now he was stunned again. Was she buying cars? Or was she buying in bulk?

You Mingzhi tried his best to stay calm. To avoid any awkward situations later, he felt it necessary to remind her, "The sports cars here all need to be purchased with full payment."

15 cars added up to several hundred million.

He knew these second-generation rich kids had money, but after all, this was his first time dealing with Ling Yue, and he didn't know the extent of her financial strength.

Looking at Ling Yue's demeanor, You Mingzhi wasn't worried that she was pretending to be rich without the funds, but rather that Ling Yue might not be able to come up with that much cash and would use real estate as collateral.

Most car owners didn't accept real estate as payment; the subsequent transfer and sale would be very troublesome.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yue took the small backpack from Cheng Jiao, slowly fished out a card from inside, and held it up.

"A Zhongcheng Gold Card!" Xun Ji couldn't help but blurt out.

Even his old man didn't have the qualifications to get a Gold Card.

Ling Yue... what kind of sacred being was she?
