Cheng Cheng and the Cicada

Chapter 40 If You Can Do It, You Do It

Looking at the woman who claimed to be the boss of Linxian leaving triumphantly, Su Su frowned and pouted, feeling very annoyed.

These two were clearly teaming up to make a fool of her!

Especially that arrogant woman. Since she was Linxian's boss, Linxian would definitely not dare to ask her to cooperate in a play.

The scene just now was obviously her improvising, deliberately making fun of her!

This made her look too embarrassed...

Made her seem like… she was fighting over a man! What a joke!

Su Su felt like ants were crawling all over her body. She had never been so humiliated in her life.

"She actually came up because the first floor of the restaurant was full and there were no seats, and she happened to see me eating on the second floor," Linxian explained to Su Su.

After all, this was a blind date arranged by Chu Shanhe. For his sake, Linxian still wanted to give her a way out, so they could part on good terms:

"You happened to leave at the time, and she didn't see you, so she thought I was eating here alone. So... it was just a coincidence and misunderstanding, don't take it to heart."

"She's really your boss?" Su Su stared at Linxian.

"Yes," Linxian answered truthfully:

"She's the CEO of Company X."

"So young!" Su Su exclaimed.

Of course, she knew about Company X. The moisturizer she was using now was from the Rhein brand, and it worked much better than the luxury brands she had bought for thousands of yuan before. It was truly a black technology in the skincare world.

But she usually didn't care about business matters, and her friends were all spoiled heiresses who only knew how to have fun and didn't talk about such things. That's why she was so shocked now that she knew the CEO of Company X was about the same age as her:

"And so beautiful."

"Yes."

Linxian nodded in agreement. Since Zhao Yingjun had stood up for him today, he had to praise her a bit:

"And her personality is very good. Everyone in our company admires her."

"Hmph."

Su Su glared at Linxian:

"Are you subtly implying that I have a bad personality? Don't pretend to be good people! I can tell you two definitely have an improper relationship! Just be honest, do you want to latch onto a rich woman and be a gigolo?"

Linxian smiled and didn't answer her question.

The comparison between people can be truly hurtful...

He had felt that Chu Anqing's personality was really good when compared to CC before. Today, compared to the Su Su in front of him... Chu Anqing's emotional intelligence and understanding could be considered fairy-level.

Talking and chatting with Chu Anqing was always comfortable, and she never embarrassed others.

Even with that sketch, he had told such a silly lie, and she had immediately covered for him, without making Linxian feel awkward at all.

Moreover, Chu Anqing's tone of voice was always smiling and light. In contrast, the Su Su in front of him was like she had crawled out of a gunpowder pile... too difficult to get along with.

Anyone who marries such a woman is truly unlucky.

"What!"

Su Su noticed Linxian's disdainful gaze and straightened her back:

"What kind of look is that! You dare to do it but don't dare to admit it!"

"Sigh..."

Linxian sighed and looked at her helplessly:

"Since your father is friends with Chu Shanhe... you should know Chu Anqing, right?"

"Of course!"

Su Su blurted out:

"How could I not know Anqing? I'm her—"

Ugh!

Su Su stopped mid-sentence.

She suddenly realized that her sister had warned her not to tell Linxian her true identity... This was related to unfreezing her bank card, and she didn't dare to be ambiguous.

"Hmm?" Linxian looked at Su Su. "Keep going, what are you to Anqing?"

"I, I was introduced by Anqing's father for a blind date," Su Su tried her best to cover it up.

"..."

Linxian was speechless:

"You're really a qualified parrot, repeating what I said."

"Why did you bring up Anqing?" Su Su changed the subject.

"I wanted to say that Anqing's personality is very good, very likable. You guys can be friends and chat more if you have the chance."

Bang!

Su Su slammed the table:

"This old lady doesn't lack people who like me! I'm warning you, you gigolo, don't even think about getting ideas about Anqing! See if Chu Shanhe dares to throw you into the Huangpu River to feed the fish!"

Linxian felt like there was nothing to talk about with her.

Anyway, they had finished eating. He looked up and asked:

"Are you full?"

"I'm full of anger!"

"Then... should we go our separate ways?"

"You!"

Su Su was really furious. She felt inexplicably frustrated today!

From beginning to end, this blind date had made her a clown.

According to her original plan, this blind date should have ended with her leaving gracefully, but instead... this hateful scumbag had given her the boot in advance.

"If you don't want to go back so early... you can also go see a movie," Linxian suggested.

"See a movie my ass! Goodbye!"

Su Su stood up and left with her handbag.

Sigh.

Linxian sighed inwardly.

Blind dates are really like opening blind boxes. No wonder so many people on the internet turn pale at the mention of them.

He also got up and followed Su Su downstairs.

Outside the restaurant, the two walked one after the other. Su Su went directly into the parking lot at the fork in the road, while Linxian continued forward, preparing to hail a taxi home by the roadside.

"Hmm?"

Su Su came back and looked at Linxian:

"Don't you drive?"

"I don't have a car..."

"You don't have a car!?"

Su Su looked at Linxian in disbelief, as if she was looking at a caveman drilling wood to make fire:

"I remember you're the vice president of Company X, right? What kind of stingy boss is that, not even giving you a car!"

As if she had found a turning point and a commanding position, Su Su instantly became arrogant:

"What's the point of working for such a boss! Too stingy!"

"It's nothing, really..."

Linxian said frankly:

"I'm actually pretty happy working for her."

"It's really not good for a man to not have a car." Su Su seemed to have found her home field, full of confidence:

"A car is a man's face!"

"Whatever you say..." Linxian really didn't know why this girl was so interested in cars. He turned around to leave.

"Hey, hey, don't go!" Su Su quickly grabbed Linxian and dragged him towards the parking lot:

"Come on, let me show you my car!"

"No need, really no need..."

But Su Su was determined to open Linxian's eyes, and Linxian was forcibly dragged to a red McLaren.

Bang, bang, bang!

Su Su proudly patted the McLaren's carbon fiber body:

"How about it, isn't my car cool!"

"Yeah, it's not bad," Linxian replied calmly.

This was a McLaren Sabre. Linxian knew a lot about cars.

This car was very rare... it was said that there were only 15 in the world. Linxian didn't know if it was true, but this was the first time he had seen this McLaren Sabre in reality outside of internet pictures and game scenes.

The car's shape was very sci-fi, and it also had a very exaggerated aerodynamic kit, including narrow and sharp headlights, a large front shovel, and grooves on the front hood... This made the car's shape very arrogant, which matched Su Su's personality very well.

This McLaren should cost more than 20 million yuan, but with its rarity, it was hard to say what the actual price would be.

However...

Su Su frowned slightly.

Linxian's "calm" attitude made her very dissatisfied and didn't meet her expectations.

Logically speaking, with such an exaggerated shape and such exaggerated power, which boy wouldn't scream or at least be surprised!

The man in front of her was too calm.

"You don't understand cars, right?" Su Su had already guessed the answer.

"Why don't you tell me about it?" Linxian laughed.

"This McLaren Sabre has the strongest twin-turbocharged V8 mid-engine on the planet, with a maximum output of 824 horsepower! It accelerates from 0 to 100 in just 2 seconds!"

"Amazing, amazing," Linxian clapped lightly.

"Do you know what that means!" Su Su raised her eyebrows and waved her hand proudly:

"That means... never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. Get in the car!"

"What for?" Linxian was stunned.

Weren't they just looking at the car? Why was she forcing him now?

"I'll drive you home!" Su Su volunteered:

"And let you experience the performance of this car firsthand! You can't understand how amazing this car is just by listening... You can't imagine or feel how fascinating the back pressure and wind pressure are!"

"I'll just take a taxi home."

"Oh, come on, why are you so boring! You should cherish this opportunity. Ordinary people can't even see this car once in their lifetime!"

Almost forcing him, Su Su opened the McLaren's scissor door and pushed Linxian inside.

Linxian sighed and fastened his seat belt.

It had to be said that it was a top-level supercar. The interior and styling were top-notch and perfect, completely designed for luxury and the track.

It was just that Linxian had played with too many luxury cars in his dreams over the years... He had long since become desensitized to these supercars, and he just wanted to go home early.

Boom!!!!!!

Su Su started the McLaren Sabre with one button. She even deliberately lowered the window so that Linxian could hear the thunderous engine sound!

"How is it? Cool, right!"

"It's a bit noisy. Can you close the window?"

"This is called a sound wave! Can it be called a sound wave if it's not noisy? You're really ignorant."

Su Su stepped on the accelerator and launched! Repeating her old trick, she didn't even wait for the parking lot to raise the gate, and just relied on the ultra-low body to rush under the barrier!

She glanced at Linxian... ???

Still no reaction!

Didn't this operation deserve some surprise?

She bit her lip secretly. Okay... I'll scare you later!

She turned left and right and got on the elevated road.

"Wait, this isn't the way to my house. You're going the wrong way," Linxian reminded.

"Don't be noisy, there are too many cars over there."

"No, what does the number of cars have to do with me going home!" Linxian was really convinced by this lunatic. What was she doing!

Boom!!!!!!

The sound of the engine at full speed came! This McLaren turned into a roaring beast! The V8 engine was at full power, accelerating towards the outer city elevated road where the traffic was sparse!

The numbers on the electronic speedometer were soaring!

120, 140, 180! 200!

At a super high speed of 200 kilometers per hour, the wind outside the window became as sharp as a blade!

Su Su couldn't help but squint her eyes and look at Linxian next to her.

Now! You can't pretend to be calm anymore, right!

"Keep to the left lane." Linxian half-closed his eyes lazily, his elbow on the car window and his cheek resting on his hand:

"Take the next intersection to the elevated road, turn back and take me home." ???

Su Su was really drunk!

Big brother!

You're too calm!

This is a city elevated road! At a speed of 200 kilometers per hour!

When she drove at 160 kilometers per hour before, her female companion was scared out of her wits!

Why did this guy seem like he was about to fall asleep?

However.

Before she could be surprised, something even more shocking happened!

Whoosh——————

Even though this McLaren was traveling at a super high speed of 200 kilometers per hour, a red Wraith suddenly overtook her from the left like a ghost!

The relative speed was still very fast!

This not only stunned Su Su, but also aroused Linxian's interest.

This speed... at least 240 kilometers or more, are there people who are so unafraid of death?

After overtaking, the red Wraith immediately changed lanes in front of the McLaren as a provocation, slowing down, and then flashing its turn signals left and right, extremely arrogant.

Linxian saw it clearly.

It was a Ferrari LaFerrari, just like Zhao Yingjun's.

And seeing the license plate number in the back...

"WTF?"

Linxian sat up straight!

What was going on?

This Ferrari LaFerrari was the one that Zhao Yingjun owned! He had driven it himself on that rainy night!

Didn't Zhao Yingjun go home?

She couldn't have returned to the office and specially driven this LaFerrari out for a race, right?

No way…

There was a left turn ahead!

At a super high speed of 200 kilometers per hour, any turn was a sharp turn. Su Su quickly stepped on the brakes to accelerate!

The LaFerrari in front of her, however, showed no signs of slowing down... It directly drifted with a flick of the tail! The tires rubbed against the road, cutting into the curve in a perfect arc!

"WTF!" "WTF!" Su Su and Linxian blurted out in unison!

This driving skill... was too amazing! Miraculous!

Now, Linxian was even more certain that the driver of that Ferrari LaFerrari could not be Zhao Yingjun!

She definitely didn't have that kind of driving skills!

Ordinary people couldn't have that kind of driving skills!

Who was in the car?

Who was driving Zhao Yingjun's car?

Logically speaking, the key to this Ferrari should be in Zhao Yingjun's desk drawer! And the only people who knew the office password were himself and Zhao Yingjun—

"That's not right!"

Linxian suddenly reacted.

There was one other person who knew the password!

The Oriole! (Huang Que)

The woman who had ambushed him in advance on that terrifying rainy night, sitting on the sofa in the office!

The person sitting in that Ferrari LaFerrari in front was likely that mysterious Oriole!

"Catch up with her!" Linxian shouted.

He had many questions to ask the Oriole. He couldn't let her run away from this rare opportunity:

"Hurry up!"

"I would chase her even if you didn't say so!!"

When had Su Su ever been provoked like this?

Today, these people, one by one, had really driven her crazy!

She stepped on the accelerator with all her might, following behind the red Wraith!

"You can't do it like that."

Linxian watched Su Su get thrown off on another curve, and was really anxious:

"It's useless if you're only fast on the straights. You slow down and fall behind when you turn. How can you catch up? You have to drift through the curves to avoid losing speed."

"Don't be noisy!" Su Su's forehead began to sweat as she gripped the steering wheel tightly, overtaking two vehicles in the same direction.

"No, you can't overtake like that!" Linxian couldn't help but guide:

"You slow down too much! Look at that Ferrari, they just twist the car and insert it directly. Why are you being so civilized when you're already speeding!"

"What are you yelling about!"

The red Ferrari was getting further and further away. Su Su couldn't bear it anymore and slapped the steering wheel:

"If you're so good, you do it!"
