"""In the future, when they perform at the bar, they will definitely give it their all, so in a way, you’re also indirectly supporting my work. So, I really must thank you!"""
Even though this guy’s flattery was a bit obvious, Zhang Jingdong had just gotten a great deal, so he accepted it with pleasure.
Then he said, "By the way, I asked you last time to check if there was a suitable Bugatti Veyron available. Any news?"
Liu Zongheng nodded, "I’ve already reserved one for you. A friend of mine bought it in the second half of last year. It has been driven less than 5,000 kilometers and is in very good condition, practically like a new one."
"...Just that, about the price... But don’t worry, I’m on good terms with him. I’ll go with you, and I guarantee you’ll be satisfied."
Zhang Jingdong smiled nonchalantly, "As long as the car is good, I definitely won’t make it difficult for you regarding the price!"
Liu Zongheng immediately said, "With your word, I can rest assured. When will you be available for me to give him a call ahead of time?"
Zhang Jingdong thought for a moment, then said, "How about tomorrow morning at 10 o’clock?"
The two chatted for a few more sentences, after which Zhang Jingdong drove off in the Bugatti Veyron.
Shortly after hitting the road, Zhang Jingdong quickly got a driving experience even more thrilling than when he used to drive the Lamborghini.
Firstly, this car was faster than the Lamborghini and easier to drive.
Secondly, this car’s flashiness on the road was directly twice that of the Lamborghini.
What pleased him the most was that along the way, he encountered an Enzo Ferrari and a Rolls-Royce Phantom; the owners of both cars took the initiative to honk at him.
The owner of the Enzo Ferrari even chatted with him for a bit, eyes filled with envy.
Tsk tsk, the feeling of being looked up to by such awesome people was simply too satisfying!
While he was speeding along, his phone suddenly rang.
If it had been anyone else, he might have waited to answer until after he arrived at the normal university, as the remaining four to five kilometers would take only a few minutes.
But when he saw the caller ID read "Chu Yi," he immediately pulled over to the side of the road.
Then he answered the phone: "Hello, Sister Chu!"
"Zhang... Mr. Zhang..."
Zhang Jingdong interrupted, "Sister Chu, since I call you ’Sister,’ please don’t call me ’Mr. Zhang.’ Just call me Jingdong."
"Okay, Jingdong, are... are you free tomorrow?"
"Of course, I am. Even if I wasn’t, given your call, I must make time. What do you need?"
"I... I want to go hiking at Qingyun Mountain tomorrow. Would you like to come with me?"
"I would love to. How about this: let’s meet at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning and head out together."
"...Okay, that works."
"Alright, then that’s settled. See you tomorrow!"
"Thank you... Jingdong, thank you!"
Zhang Jingdong, fearing she might change her mind, was about to hang up quickly, but after hearing her last words, he suddenly thought of something.
He asked with concern, "Sister Chu, you sound a bit off. Who is it that’s so inconsiderate as to upset my Sister Chu?"
"It’s... it’s nothing, thank you for your concern. Maybe it’s just because I’ve had a lot of work these past few days. Maybe I’ll feel better after relaxing tomorrow!"
"Okay, I understand. Sister Chu, don’t worry. Tomorrow I’ll make sure to plan everything well and ensure you have a great time!"
Chu Yi’s voice clearly brightened, "Thank you for saying that, and thank you for being willing to accompany me!"
"Congratulations to the Host for receiving the heartfelt gratitude of the target person, reward 50,000 yuan!"
After a few more sentences, they hung up the phone.
Zhang Jingdong looked up at the flower pots outside the window on the second floor of the distant restaurant, and after a while, a contented smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth.
