I met my whole family through Baidu Tieba.
Chapter 257: Me? An Ordinary Family
The afternoon sun shines on the commercial street, and the retro signboard of the Sculpting Time Cafe, suspended by wire, sways gently in the breeze. Students walk in twos and threes, weaving between shops.
A Lamborghini Huracan slowly drove in, its red paint making the car look like flowing flames. Behind it followed a Mercedes-Benz LK, its smooth lines gleaming with a cold silver light. Further behind were a BMW 523L and a Volkswagen Touareg...
Several cars lined up in a row, one after the other, forming a convoy, maintaining formation, and slowly drove into the commercial street.
As they passed by, several girls who had been laughing and joking as they were about to enter a jewelry store stopped and looked over. Even if they didn't know much about cars, the Lamborghini Huracan's eye-catching design made it clear how luxurious the car was.
A group of boys who were discussing their plans for the next day under a tree on the side of the street also looked over immediately, exclaiming things like, "Holy crap, a Lamborghini!" and "All luxury cars!"
Next to a Passat parked on the sidewalk, a portly shopkeeper was showing off his newly bought car to the owner of the shop next door, holding his car keys. Seeing this convoy of cars arrive, the shopkeeper felt a little less eager to show off and pulled his car keys back into his hand…
Pedestrians on the commercial street were drawn to the convoy and stopped to watch.
Fan Kaixin and his group, who were standing in front of the cold drink shop, finally noticed the commotion coming from the other end of the commercial street. They looked over and saw a convoy of cars slowly driving towards them.
"That car is so cool!" Zhu Yutian exclaimed, looking at the Lamborghini at the front.
Fan Kaixin is also a car enthusiast. When he saw the Lamborghini, his eyes lit up. He quickly took out his phone and snapped a series of photos of the Lamborghini.
At the same time, he said, "It's definitely cool! That's a Lamborghini Alla, it costs over three million!"
"More than three million?!" Several girls present were shocked by the price.
Zhu Yutian then noticed the cars behind her. She didn't recognize the Lamborghini, but she recognized the logos of the other cars.
"Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, they're all luxury cars!" Zhu Yutian rattled off several brands she recognized, growing increasingly surprised.
Qin Zhen looked into the Lamborghini and saw through the windshield that a young man about their age was sitting in the driver's seat. A young woman was sitting in the passenger seat.
Zhu Yutian also noticed, "The car owner is so young."
Fan Kaixin was still taking pictures with his phone, not just of the Lamborghini in front, but also of all the luxury cars behind it. He said, "That's normal. It's definitely a very rich second-generation heir. Only rich kids would buy a car like that. The cars behind are probably driven by rich kids too. They like to flaunt their wealth like this. I've seen it before."
Zhu Yutian then asked, "They look to be about our age. Do you think they're also students from our university town?"
"I know the circle at Yangko University of Science and Technology; there's no such thing. These people must have just been passing by..."
As Fan Kaixin was filming and talking, he saw the Lamborghini pull up to their side and stop.
As soon as the lead car stopped, all the vehicles in the convoy also stopped.
The Lamborghini's door opened, and the boy who was driving got out.
There were already many people watching the convoy on both sides of the street. As the boy stopped the car and got out, everyone's attention naturally turned to him.
The boy has a slightly devilish handsomeness, which, combined with the entire convoy and his designer clothes, makes him even more handsome and dazzling.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the boy walked around the front of the car and came to a tree on the side of the street, in front of three people who were squatting.
These three are Ye Jintong, Ji Chunfu, and Shen Kang.
When the convoy arrived, Ye Jintong and Ji Chunfu were discussing how much the lead car should be worth, concluding that it was estimated to be over a million.
Then they saw the convoy stop in front of them, and a boy got out of the car, walked around, and came to them.
"...?"
Ye Jintong and Ji Chunfu stared blankly, still somewhat taken aback.
Shen Kang had already slowly stood up.
He had a pretty good idea of what was going on with the convoy, and thought to himself that these rich kids really had quite the grand entourage.
The slightly devilish-looking boy walked up to him, sized him up, and then suddenly gave him a bright, seemingly calm smile. "You must be Shen Kang?"
"Um."
"My name is Wei Minglun." Wei Minglun introduced himself, extending his hand in a very business-like manner, as if to shake hands.
Although he didn't look anywhere else, he had noticed from inside the car that everyone on the street was staring at his vehicle.
Now, it should all be on his people.
Wei Minglun enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.
Under such intense public scrutiny, extending his hand in a very business-like manner to shake hands made him feel particularly sophisticated, which is why he did it on purpose.
Shen Kang extended his hand and shook hands with him, saying, "Hello."
He had also heard of the name of the eldest son of Shuanglong Group from Guo Pinyan.
After shaking hands, Wei Minglun withdrew his hand and said, "Zong Shijie said there was business to discuss, so we came to take a look."
Shen Kang grinned and pointed to his car, "Nice car."
Wei Minglun glanced at his car, then turned back and casually said, "You like it? Want to take it for a few laps? This car is quite fun to drive."
Shen Kang shook his head, "Forget it, it's too stiff to drive, it hurts my back."
Wei Minglun was intrigued and agreed: "Indeed. But driving this car is all about looking cool..."
As the two were talking, the drivers from the cars at the back of the convoy got out one after another and swarmed over.
Wei Minglun, the first person to meet Shen Kang, also acted as an intermediary, introducing them: "This is Lao Meng, Meng Chengjiao..."
Meng Chengjiao came over, smiling and extending his hand, "Hello."
"Hello." Shen Kang also reached out and shook hands with him.
"This is Dong Baitao..."
Every time Wei Minglun introduced someone, someone would come over and shake hands with Shen Kang.
As everyone lined up to shake hands with Shen Kang, a Jetta was parked behind the convoy.
The driver was a man in his late twenties who looked like an office worker. When he saw the line of cars in front of him stop, he wanted to honk his horn and even get out of his car to tell them to move on, but after thinking about it, he decided to wait.
On both sides of the street, the students and passersby who were watching were all looking closely at Shen Kang in the crowd.
Qin Zhen and his group, who were standing in front of the cold drink shop, were also among the crowd watching this place.
All four of them were shocked.
Fan Kaixin had previously thought he was just an ordinary student, but now that he saw this scene, it was as if this guy was receiving a foreign dignitary.
Those driving luxury cars are clearly rich kids, but judging from the scene before us, this guy whom we previously thought was just an ordinary student seems to have an even bigger background.
Then why did he eat those five-cent puddings with such relish, like it was the first time he'd ever eaten them? Is this guy crazy?
Fan Kaixin was completely baffled.
Zhu Yutian then spoke in a low voice: "Zhenzhen, is this person also a rich second-generation?"
"have no idea."
Qin Zhen gave a brief reply, glancing over there with a flickering look in his eyes, his heart filled with surprise.
Based on the information she gleaned from Ouyang Yu, Shen Kang lived a frugal life and didn't seem like a rich kid. That's why she believed that Shen Kang was simply quite capable, which was why he had managed to build up some businesses at the school.
But now it seems her prediction was completely wrong. Shen Kang is actually a super-rich second-generation heir with a very powerful background, but he usually hides it very well and doesn't show off, which may be related to his family. Qin Zhen had heard that some top-tier wealthy families with deep roots have very strict family education.
Chen Yongting looked over there silently.
After being rejected when she tried to chat him up, she was quite conflicted and even considered asking Qin Zhen for the guy's contact information so she could try again. But now she dismissed that thought.
The difference is too great; they're from completely different worlds...
This one
After Shen Kang got to know all of them, Dong Baitao suggested that they park the car first, and then go directly to Zhongtanghui to chat.
After all, they were just trying to show off. Now that they've achieved their goal, they naturally want to drive away as soon as possible so as not to obstruct traffic. Otherwise, the traffic police from nearby will be coming soon.
So the group of people got back into the cars, the convoy started moving again, and went to park.
Shen Kang then called out to the two henchmen beside him, "Let's go."
Ye Jintong and Ji Chunfu then followed Shen Kang toward Zhongtanghui.
Ye Jintong and Ji Chunfu remained silent. But after taking only a few steps, Ye Jintong couldn't help but speak up: "Boss, what kind of family do you come from?"
Shen Kang said, "Me? Just an ordinary family."
Ye Jintong didn't believe it: "So, when these people come over, they'll line up to shake your hand like they're meeting a leader?"
Shen Kang thought for a moment, "Maybe it's because I have a lot of personal charm?"
Ye Jintong looked at Ji Chunfu, "Do you believe me?"
Ji Chunfu shook his head directly, "I don't believe it." Then he looked at Shen Kang, "Boss, stop pretending. Your rich second-generation aura has already given you away. Admit it."
Shen Kang was very annoyed: "If I were a rich kid, would I be squatting on the roadside eating puddings with you guys?"
Ye Jintong was taken aback. "It seems so... but you can't be sure, after all, you insisted that I treat you to that little pudding. I've heard that some rich people are so stingy they're abnormal, they love to take advantage of others, and they'll even eat free dog poop with relish."
"..."
Shen Kang remained silent for a long time, finding Ye Jintong utterly disgusting.
