115: Fishing for Cockroach
Jiang Zhibin took the lighter and felt it all over, but couldn't find the ignition spot: "You have to say, these lighters are made pretty realistically these days. I can't even find where to light it."
"Alright, that's enough." Ye Su told Jiang Zhibin to stop fussing: "This really is a car key."
Upon hearing this, Fang Zewei and the other guy instantly looked at Ye Su.
"Stop bullshitting." Jiang Zhibin didn't take it seriously and was still looking for the ignition mechanism on the car key: "It's hidden so well, how can I not find it?"
"Are you stupid?" Ye Su couldn't bear to watch: "Whether it's a lighter or not, just shake it and see if there's gas inside. Then you'll know."
Jiang Zhibin, half-believing and half-doubting, held the car key to his ear and shook it. Indeed, he didn't hear any sound: "This really is an Audi car key!"
Fang Zewei and Lin Jingjie also leaned in: "For real?!"
"Real."
"Holy shit!"
As Ye Su nodded, Dorm 305 immediately erupted in exclamations.
"You're even driving an Audi now!"
"Did you go rob a bank these past few days?!"
Fang Zewei didn't speak, just took the key from Jiang Zhibin's hand and examined it curiously.
Ye Su gave Jiang Zhibin an annoyed look: "What year do you think it is? Robbing a bank?"
"Then how did you get this car?"
"Don't tell me you've been secretly getting rich behind your brothers' backs?"
"Foster father, when you become rich, don't forget us!"
The three of them really couldn't accept it. The brother who agreed to suffer together with them had come back from the May Day holiday driving an Audi.
Ye Su didn't continue to crush them: "The car belongs to a friend from my hometown. He went back to his hometown for a while, so he lent it to me to drive for a bit."
"Oh."
"So that's how it is."
"That's a relief, at least you didn't start living the high life."
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief almost simultaneously.
"What do you mean?" Ye Su punched Fang Zewei: "As soon as you heard the car wasn't mine, 'foster father' turned back into 'kid'?"
Fang Zewei shook his head: "Didn't expect that, did you? This dude is just that snobbish."
"Alright, give the key back to me when you're done looking."
"Can't you see I'm still in line?" Lin Jingjie took the key before Ye Su could: "I've lived this long and I've never even touched an Audi car key."
"And what about this outfit?" Jiang Zhibin lightly patted Ye Su's shoulder, looking him up and down: "It's all new, doesn't look cheap either, right?"
Everything Ye Su was wearing, from head to toe, including his underwear and socks, was bought after Chen Xinyi got some money and insisted on taking him shopping.
The whole outfit cost over two thousand, which was indeed a bit luxurious for an average college student.
"Oh, you mean these? My girlfriend bought them."
"You beast!"
Dorm 305, which had just breathed a sigh of relief because the Audi wasn't Ye Su's, instantly let out another wail.
"Alright." Ye Su looked at the three dudes helplessly: "Where do you guys want to go tonight? I'll drive you there."
The faces of the three cleared up simultaneously: "Deal!"
"Tsk tsk tsk." Only then did Jiang Zhibin click his tongue, scanning Ye Su with a hint of envy: "With your current outfit, paired with an Audi, you could hook more than half the female students in our school like big fish!"
Jiang Zhibin wasn't wrong. His experience after getting out of the car in the parking lot just now had already proven how popular he was at school after switching from an electric scooter to an Audi A6L.
"Don't you see what kind of girlfriend he has? Would he even look at the female students in our school?"
"You've got a point."
"To be fair, clothes really do make the man. Now that you've got this outfit, your Charm looks a bit different."
"Alright, I should probably go to class."
Ye Su stopped paying attention to the three of them, found his textbook on the bookshelf, and went out with Lin Jingjie.
...
After class and a half-full dinner, the three, Jiang Zhibin, finally saw the Audi they had been longing for.
"So cool!"
"What's so cool? It's just a second-hand car that's already been driven for 100,000 kilometers. It's only worth around a hundred thousand now, not as expensive as you imagine."
"Big brother, what do you mean [only worth around a hundred thousand]? Is a hundred thousand not money?!"
"Uh... I didn't mean it like that." Ye Su had subconsciously stopped treating a hundred thousand as real money again.
"Alright, get in." Ye Su said, getting into the driver's seat first.
Fang Zewei and Lin Jingjie got into the back seat one after another, leaving only Jiang Zhibin outside: "If I sit in the passenger seat, won't your girlfriend get mad if she finds out —"
Ye Su didn't respond and started the car directly.
"Hey, I haven't gotten in yet!"
Jiang Zhibin didn't dare to joke around anymore; like a loach, he dove into the car.
"Basking in Boss Ye's glory, I finally get to ride in an Audi too."
"Alright." Ye Su reminded: "Fasten your seatbelts, let's go."
"Got it."
They said they were going out to have fun, but actually, they were just looking for some novelty, basically just driving around the city, stopping here and there.
But spending time aimlessly wandering and chatting about everything under the sun with his three dudes was something Ye Su still found very enjoyable.
Since he had to drive, Ye Su couldn't drink, so he took the three of them to try the [Apple U] barbecue, which many of his high school classmates in his social circle couldn't help but recommend multiple times.
After confirming that his high school classmates hadn't recommended it wrongly and that [Apple U] barbecue was indeed impressive, Ye Su drove the three back to the school gate.
"I still have things to do, so I won't be returning to the dorm tonight. I'll just drop you guys off here."
"OK."
After getting out of the car, the three said goodbye to Ye Su, while simultaneously giving him a playful look.
You're a college student, what else could you have to do at night other than going to find your girlfriend to sleep with?
As soon as the three of them puckered their butts, Ye Su knew what kind of fart they were about to let out.
Looking at their expressions, how could Ye Su not know what they were thinking?
Naturally, Ye Su couldn't be bothered to explain. He nodded at them, started the car, and left, returning to his rental apartment.
"Tomorrow, first I'll go redeem the super lotto, then go to the bank to collect the gold bars, and finally take the rubies to Li Mengyao's shop."
He didn't know what intelligence would refresh at midnight yet, so the tasks Ye Su had arranged for himself tomorrow were just these three for now.
"If I had known, I would have brought my dorm computer over too. At least I could watch a movie to kill some time."
With nothing to do, Ye Su could only chat with Chen Xinyi remotely, taking the opportunity to tell her about buying a second-hand Audi.
[Do you want me to pick you up after work tomorrow night and take you for a drive?]
Chen Xinyi replied instantly.
[Chen Xinyi: Absolutely not!]
[Chen Xinyi: Being picked up in an Audi is too high-profile. It doesn't suit a wage slave like me. I'd better just take the bus.]
Seeing her rare refusal, Ye Su knew this girl definitely had no confidence in his driving skills.
[You better think clearly. If you don't ride in it, I'm going to pick up other women tomorrow.]
[Chen Xinyi: Remember to be safe.]
[Chen Xinyi: Of course, I meant driving.]
"Alright, alright. Haven't seen you for half a day, and you've grown bold again, huh!"
Ye Su swore that when he went over there on Friday, he would definitely turn up the intensity on Chen Xinyi and let her know what attitude she should use when talking to him!
