After taking the key from Li Mengjie, Leng Xuan couldn’t be bothered to look at the disdainful looks from the two girls. Instead, he exchanged glances with Wang Shuze, who gave a slight smile, attractive in both appearance and demeanor, rare both inside and out, truly a rare handsome man indeed. No wonder even Ling Xuejiu and Li Mengjie were charmed by him. This made Leng Xuan involuntarily linger on his face for half a second longer, then he took a few steps, opened the car door, and sat in the driver’s seat.
Tapping his fingers lightly on the steering wheel, Leng Xuan checked the distance behind through the rearview mirror; after all, it’s more accurate to assess from inside the car than by standing outside. Just as he was hesitating, he heard Ling Xuejiu say with a hint of mockery, "Classmate Leng Xuan, if you really can’t do it, just get down. We appreciate your kindness!" With Wang Shuze nearby, her words, though laden with sarcasm, were still quite polite on the surface.
No sooner had Ling Xuejiu finished speaking than Leng Xuan started the car, with a loud "kr-uh" noise as he floored the gas pedal!
At the sound of the gas pedal, the faces of Li Mengjie, Ling Xuejiu, and even Wang Shuze changed. Li Mengjie, in particular, was so anxious and angry that her heart almost leaped to her throat as she yelled, "Hey, Leng Xuan, do you even know how to drive? Why are you pressing the gas so hard? Get out now! If my car gets damaged by you, I won’t let you off, get out..."
Before she could finish, suddenly, another loud "kr-uh" filled the air, and the car, with an indescribable speed, performed a beautiful half-moon turn, seemingly brushing close against the business car ahead, yet when the car smoothly emerged, there wasn’t any sign of scratching—it evidently hadn’t made contact!
Immediately, Li Mengjie’s eyes widened, and Ling Xuejiu was also completely astounded. Wang Shuze was usually very composed, but today he seemed a bit off, frozen for several seconds before coming to his senses, then he smiled and began clapping elegantly, praising, "Beautiful!"
When Leng Xuan got out of the car, Wang Shuze was the first to greet him, handing over a business card with his left hand and extending his right hand for a friendly handshake, "Leng Xuan, right? Hehe, hello, my name is Wang Shuze. I just had the fortune of witnessing your driving skills and I’m quite impressed. I wonder if you are interested in joining our amateur racing team? You don’t need to answer me right away, take your time to think it over and give me a call later."
Putting everything else aside, Wang Shuze’s magnanimity alone was enough to earn respect. Leng Xuan had admired only a handful of people in his life, but now he couldn’t help but feel a sense of respect for Wang Shuze. After taking the business card, he shook hands with him. As they parted, Wang Shuze smiled at him before turning to wave at Ling Xuejiu and Li Mengjie, saying, "Since the car’s out, I’m no longer needed, goodbye!" With that, he walked towards his own car.
Leng Xuan glanced at the business card in his hand and murmured to himself, ’Shenfeng Racing Team!’
Li Mengjie and Ling Xuejiu exchanged looks, their eyes brimming with surprise. They had not expected the school’s elite prince to extend a hand of friendship to a country bumpkin, which was truly surprising.
After all, while Wang Shuze was always polite and composed to everyone, he seldom shook hands with people. To be held in high esteem by him, there were only a handful of such individuals in the entire school.
