I have ten trillion licking dog gold

"what happened?"

Seeing his wife waving at him, Tie Jun apologized to his old squad leader and got up to walk over.

"Look, this car."

Wen Rong handed over the phone.

Tie Jun recognized that this was not his wife's phone. He glanced at Ji Ailin, who was excited, nervous, and full of anticipation, and felt even more confused.

But the next second, when his gaze fell on the short video in his WeChat Moments, his reaction was no different from that of the two women.

Once.

Twice.

Three times.

It didn't require repeated confirmation. As someone who has had an extraordinary interest in cars since childhood, Tie Jun recognized the "top-of-the-line toy" that had haunted his dreams almost immediately in the video.

The pinnacle of the supercar world.

Koenigsegg One: 1
Each one is a custom-made product.

It is claimed that there are only a handful of them in the world.

That's right.

Single digits.

Given this number of vehicles on the road, the value of this car cannot be simply described by its price. If we had to compare it in monetary terms, it wouldn't be surprising if it were worth nine figures.

Ok.

That is, a small goal.

For car enthusiasts, this is no longer just a car, but the pinnacle of mechanical craftsmanship, an unparalleled work of art.

"Is this Koenigsegg?"

Even though she already knew the answer, overwhelmed by her surging emotions, Ji Ailin couldn't help but ask the question knowing the answer already.

Tie Jun nodded slowly. A man is still a man. He adjusted his breathing. "Was it filmed in Shacheng?"

"Ah."

Tie Jun returned the phone.

"Tie Jun, what you said before, it wasn't all... true, was it?"

Obvious.

Ji Ailin no longer finds it funny at all.

“I said at the time that I was not joking.”

"..."

Ji Ailin remained silent for a moment, then asked, "But all the ones I found online are silver and black, why is this one... red?"

"Perhaps. It's because it's a festive occasion."

indeed.

The only thing that doesn't quite look right in the video is the color.

But what right do ordinary people have to define this kind of toy that is extremely rare worldwide?

Ji Ailin's expression was extremely complicated, and she seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

Wen Rong was the same; she seemed to really want to say something to her husband.

As if sensing their thoughts, Tie Jun took a deep breath, stood up, and said, "I...I'll go ask."

"You're not opening any of the six ones? Are you drunk?"

Boss Jiang is playing dice with Tong Dan and Fang Qing.

There were 3 people, and Fang Qing called out 6 ones, but Boss Jiang ignored her and kept adding more, eventually reaching 7 ones.

Anyone who has played drinking games knows how outrageous it is for three people to shout six 1s, let alone seven. Tong Dan, who is known for her loyalty in drinking parties, reminded someone, but the other person was stubborn and insisted on increasing the number to seven.

"If you're so chivalrous, then drink it! I didn't!"

Seeing that the other party was unmoved, Tong Dan decisively opened the dice cup.

There is not a single 1.

"yours."

Tong Dan's gaze shifted to Fang Qing.

Princess Qing, who shouted out six 1s, opened the dice cup.

She had two, and she wasn't just shouting randomly. If everyone had two 1s like her, it would indeed be enough for six. But seeing Fang Qing's dice roll, Tong Dan revealed a confident smile, smug and mixed with a kind of pity for the mentally challenged, and simply said to the person who shouted out seven 1s, "Drink up."

Although the game is called "Bragging," you can't just brag without thinking.

Seven ones, minus Fang Qing's two, hmph, we need to get a leopard.

"You can actually add more."

Jiang Chen flipped over the dice, and the identical red dots acted like a magic spell, instantly freezing Tong Dan's smile.

Add one more leopard.

That means there were more than 7 in total; they actually rolled 8 1s?!
"You cheated!"

Without thinking, Tong Dan almost slammed her hand on the table.

As a seasoned drinker, she has had the rarest of experiences in her life where she rolls five 1s.

"I am willing to admit defeat."

Jiang Chen remained calm and composed, without the slightest hint of guilt. He admitted that he had indeed used some techniques, but only as an experiment.

Controlling dice isn't actually that difficult; with enough practice over a long period, anyone can master it. Of course, he didn't have the time or the interest, so he just tried it out of the blue.

The result was quite lucky.

Even if we tried again, we might not succeed.

"Stop playing!"

Since the dice couldn't be faked, Tong Dan could only say that she had encountered a "master". She then resorted to shamelessness and hid in the restroom.

"Shall we continue?"

Jiang Chen put away the dice, ready to challenge Qingmei to a one-on-one duel.

An ordinary person, or a normal person, would know their own limitations in this situation and would realize that there's no point in playing against such an opponent. But Fang Qing inexplicably ignored it and nodded.

"continue."

Right.

Anyway.

I don't gamble.

At worst, we can just drink alcohol.

Fortunately, Tie Jun came over and saved Fang Qing. He had also seen what had just happened. All he could say was that Jiang Chen was no longer the person he knew.

In the past, even if he were given a hundred chances, Jiang Chen wouldn't have been able to pull off this move.

"Princess Qing, even ordinary people know to cut their losses in time. You're a lawyer, why are you jumping into the fire?"

Tie Jun took Tong Dan's place.

"Have fun?"

Jiang Chen extended an invitation.

Tie Jun shook his head decisively, "I don't play games with cheaters."

Jiang Chen didn't force him; his vanity was greatly satisfied.

It's still possible to deal with people like Tong Dan.

If the person sitting here were a Taoist nun or someone like Lan Peizhi...

Ha ha.

"Ask you something."

"Ah."

Tie Jun hesitated for a moment, "...Do you remember what you said to me when we were little?"

Despite Mr. Jiang's seemingly carefree and composed demeanor, he was actually putting on a brave face. Under the influence of alcohol, he couldn't help but catch his breath slightly before saying, "What kind of question is that? The things we've said together would be several gigabytes in our phones. Which sentence are you referring to?"

"You know."

Why does this seem a bit ambiguous?
"I do not know."

"Still playing dumb, huh? Didn't you make a promise to me?"

Fang Qing became curious. "What promises did he make to you?"

"Tell me yourself, when we were kids, what did you say you would do when I got married?"

The person shook their head again; perhaps their memory had been diluted by the alcohol.

"Want to give me a surprise?"

Tie Jun laughed, "Your surprise has been filmed and posted online!"

"..."

at last.

His gaze flickered slightly.

It seems like he was faking it.

He clearly remembers everything.

Now Tie Jun was certain that it was his old friend's arrangement. His heart was filled with even more emotion. He opened his mouth, and finally revealed a bitter smile that was both touching and helpless.

"I'm just an ordinary citizen, and this is a bit too much."

"An agreement must stand by it."

Jiang Chen casually acknowledged that the Koenigsegg that had already caused a huge uproar on social media was his creation.

Also.

Shacheng is only this big.

Who else could it be?

"Wasn't this car discontinued?"

"In the capitalist world, there is only one rule."

Tie Jun understood.

A frog at the bottom of a well can never understand the vastness of the world.

Jiang Chen's abilities exceeded his comprehension.

Let's not even talk about the color.

It should be easy to print their wedding photos on it.

"I'm just keeping my promise. Whether you use it or not is your business." "You've already gone to all this trouble, how can I not use it?"

Tie Jun then said to Fang Qing, "Princess Qing, I won't lend you your car."

What kind of car did he get for you?

Fang Qing sensed something amiss.

Tie Jun sighed, his voice heavy with indescribable sorrow.

"Koenigsegg One1".

"..."

Fang Qing remained silent for a moment, then said, "Isn't this car a two-door?"

"..."

"..."

A lawyer's way of thinking is unique.

"Okay." Jiang Chen nodded. "You'll have to do a bit of work, as the groom will have to drive yourself."

Tie Jun smiled bitterly again.

His wedding seemed destined to be unconventional and unforgettable.

"Let me make this clear beforehand: I'm not responsible if there's any bump or scratch."

"Then you'd better be careful. It's bad luck if the wedding car has an accident on the wedding day."

Tie Jun's eye twitched, and he couldn't hold back any longer, so he cursed, "I've never driven such a dangerous car before."

Jiang Chen patted him on the shoulder, "Just go slower."

Tie Jun was both amused and exasperated, speechless. He picked up a bottle of wine, chugged it down in one gulp, and then silently got up and walked away.

Between brothers, there's no need for many words.

"When did you make such a promise to him?"

Fang Qing's focus is quite peculiar.

"A long time ago, I forget which time exactly, who didn't like to brag a little when they were a kid?"

"You have a pretty good memory."

Fang Qing praised his honesty and trustworthiness.

For some reason, Jiang Chen started to change the subject, "Why hasn't Tong Dan come back yet? Did she throw up? Go and check on her."

Fu Zili is very humorous.

As this singles night drew to a close, I requested the song "Unforgettable Tonight".

"Unforgettable tonight, unforgettable tonight~"

The reunion, themed "Promise," came to a close during the grand chorus.

When they stepped out of the elevator, everyone's face was flushed with alcohol.

"Xiaoyu, take your sister Tong Dan back."

"Don't worry, Brother Tiejun, leave it to me."

"you two……"

As the main character, Tie Jun naturally had to be responsible for everyone. Tong Dan was flushed from drinking and started to stagger. Similarly, Jiang Chen and Fang Qing had also drunk quite a bit.

"It's alright, take good care of Squad Leader Wu."

Mr. Jiang's drinking etiquette is impeccable; no matter how much he drinks, he never reveals it to outsiders.

"Ah."

The two of them kept each other company, and Tie Jun wasn't too worried. "Message me when you get home," he said.

"Mr. Jiang, goodbye."

Wu Yubin bids farewell.

"See you."

Jiang Chen said goodbye to everyone and walked with Fang Qing to the edge of the square, where a row of taxis were parked waiting for passengers.

Looking at the two figures from behind, Ji Ailin is still somewhat dazed and can't shake off the feeling.

The celestial beings appeared so vividly and realistically before me?
"Let's take a walk."

Just as Jiang Chen was about to open the door of a taxi, Fang Qing suddenly spoke.

go?
It's almost 1 a.m. now.

However, Jiang Chen withdrew his hand and nodded.

Walking around after drinking too much is actually quite comfortable, but sitting in a car makes you more prone to dizziness.

The night was somewhat gloomy in the early morning, with dark clouds drifting by. The continuous cool breeze not only blew the leaves down but also diluted the smell of alcohol on them.

of course.

It only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.

The smell of alcohol can be blown away, but the alcohol in the blood cannot be removed.

"Stomach upset?"

Jiang Chen noticed Qingmei clutching her stomach and asked, "Should we go to the hospital? An IV drip will help a lot."

"Isn't that shameful?"

"What's so embarrassing about it? Nobody saw it."

Does this mean he doesn't consider himself a human being?
"It's okay, I'll be fine after walking around for a while."

Jiang Chen wasn't one to fuss over things, so he didn't force her. "If you can't handle it, just say so."

"Your alcohol tolerance has improved."

"Like you, I'd risk my life for you. Tie Jun won't get married all the time either."

Fang Qing smiled, gripping her abdomen even tighter.

Jiang Chen didn't dare to offer to carry him. Given his current condition, if he were to carry someone, he might very well fall.

"Why don't you sit down and rest for a while?"

"Ah."

In the dead of night, the two sat down by the roadside, with cars occasionally passing by on the road, creating hazy and fleeting light and shadow.

Fang Qing felt much better and slowly loosened her grip on her abdomen, but she still didn't say anything.

"I have a feeling it's going to rain."

Jiang Chen, sitting by the roadside, looked up at the sky.

"Why don't we take a car back?"

"We'll talk about it later."

"..."

Ok.

Jiang Chen calmed down.

The two of them sat by the roadside late at night, and no one knew what they were looking at, just as no one knew why some old people liked to daydream.

“Tick, tick, tick…”

as predicted.

Someone's judgment was accurate; sparse water droplets appeared from nothing and dripped onto the two people's hair and cheeks.

Jiang Chen quickly patted his butt and got up, but at this time, there were very few taxis, so he could only find a place to hide first.

"Let's go hide there."

Fang Qing reached out her hand.

Without thinking, Jiang Chen instinctively took her hand and pulled her up.

The two moved to a new location and hid under the eaves of a shop facing the street.

"Drip, drip, drip—"

The rain fell like a broken beaded curtain, fluttering and scattering in the wind.

The two were still holding hands. In fact, this scene has been repeated countless times, from children to teenagers, young adults, and now.

Life is like a slideshow movie.

Within the same scene framework, the characters grow up without realizing it.

"It shouldn't rain much."

Jiang Chen raised his arm and wiped the water stains from his face.

"I wish this rain would just keep going."

Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, but did not turn his head.

rain.

It's really not that big.

It was getting late.

It's just that memories are overflowing.

It's just a pity.

I just didn't bring an umbrella.

"How could it possibly stop?"

Jiang Chen said, and then suddenly felt a gripping force coming from his right hand, forcing him to turn his head.

The hazy intoxication and the inherent rationality within his eyes were contradictory yet intertwined, radiating a power that sent shivers down one's spine.

Jiang Chen was about to speak.

"Shhh."

Fang Qing stared at him with an expression she had never shown before.
"Didn't you say you couldn't tell the difference?"

"I'll help you."

The interrupted conversation was resumed here.

In Jiang Chen's numb mind and dilated pupils, the clasped hands felt a pull, and that face, as warm as the years, gradually drew closer amidst the sounds of cars speeding by on the road.

finally.

It erased all distance.

The rain blurred the street scene.

A man and a woman kissed passionately under the eaves of a shop on the street, remaining inseparable for a long time. (End of Chapter)
