CH 033 WINNER IN LIFE
“Uncle.”
At 6:59pm, Shen Zhen arrived at the restaurant at the last minute before being late. He came by taxi, and the road during the evening rush hour was extremely congested. Along the way, Shen Zhen was also treated to a slew of cursing from the driver who seemed to be an expert master, the cursing never repeated and never ended the whole time they were stuck in traffic. When Shen Zhen finally got out of the car, it was as if he had been reborn as a human being again.
There was also a smell in the car, either the driver had body odor, or the previous passenger had body odor, Shen Zhen practically held his breath the whole way.
Qin Xing didn’t ask too much, only asking gently: “Is there a traffic jam on the road?”
Shen Zhen took off his coat and handed it to the waiter, unbuttoned his shirt, and said very relaxedly, “It’s rush hour.”
Qin Xing chuckled.
“Uncle.” Shen Zhen said suddenly, “I want to buy a car.”
Qin Xing: “Why did you suddenly think of buying a car?”
Shen Zhen: “It’s not convenient, it’s not like I can ask Uncle to pick me up from work every day.”
He was already at this age, and no longer a child. It was okay to hitch a ride in Uncle’s car once in a while, but every day, Shen Zhen was a little embarrassed.
“I want to buy a motorcycle.” Towards the end of Shen Zhen’s previous life, he couldn’t even afford a motorcycle, let alone a car, so he could only ride a second-hand electric bike. At that time, his biggest dream was to buy a motorcycle——when clearly while he was still the young master Shen at that time, he liked motorcycles the least, thinking that only people with flamboyant personalities would like them.
Qin Xing smiled and said, “Okay, after eating, Uncle will accompany you to a car dealership.”
Shen Zhen had a feeling of being pampered, and lowered his head slightly, his cheeks flushing a little red: “Ho is that appropriate, Uncle is so busy.”
“As long as it’s Xiao Zhen’s business, Uncle is free at any time.” Qin Xing’s eyes were soft, and the corner of his mouth was also curved in a smile. It was quite strange, when Qin Xing took off his clothes, he was as sexy as a movie star, but when he put on his clothes, he looked very refined and well-groomed.
This restaurant was a niche restaurant. There were not many people, but the taste was very good. Most of the people who came here were couples, because the interior decoration was very diverse, and each booth had a different decoration style. There were girlish style, anime style, pastoral style, and European style to name a few. The one Shen Zhen and Qin Xing sat in had a minimalist style.
That was to say, almost everything was monochrome, white and silver. The decorations were all silver, even the dinner plates and wax holders.
How should one put it…..this was probably the booth with the least romantic atmosphere in this niche restaurant, and unexpectedly it fit Qin Xing’s aura very well.
Abstinence with an uppercase ‘A’.
Shen Zhen felt that no young couple would sit in this booth.
The booth partition was not completely closed, one could see the inside through the windows and doors. It was semi-open, so it wouldn’t make people feel stuffy.
The young couples waiting for the food to be served had nothing to do, so while chatting they looked randomly around.
A girl suddenly said: “Look, look, that booth over there, do you see, damn, that handsome guy’s side profile is just perfect!”
Her boyfriend was in a complicated mood. He had already discovered that when his girlfriend praised other men for being good-looking, if he said they were not good-looking, he would definitely be scolded.
But when he said other women were beautiful, then that was looking for a fight.
So he could only say absent-mindedly: “Sure.”
Girl: “Are you brushing me off?”
The boy hurriedly said, “No, absolutely not!”
The girl rolled her eyes: “Did you make another appointment to play games all night?”
The boy’s eyes widened. He felt that his girlfriend was probably a spy, so he shook his head desperately and said with a strong desire for survival: “I don’t play games, I don’t play games, how can playing games be more important than my girlfriend? I want to spend the rest of my life with you, but can I live a lifetime with games?!”
The girl snorted: “That’s about the right attitude. We only get together two days a week. I don’t say anything when you usually play games but anyway, you can’t play during these two days. Also, on usual days you can’t play games for too long. You have to be home before eleven at night, do you understand?”
The boy clasped his hands together: “Got it, little ancestor.”
The girl was still a little dissatisfied, and was about to say something, but the boy suddenly said: “Ai, two men are here to eat?”
Girl: “Men?”
Because the girl couldn’t see the two people from her perspective, she could only see the one at the door, so she hurriedly sat next to her boyfriend and took out the glasses from her purse.
“So handsome.” The girl grabbed her boyfriend’s hand, and her excited nails sank into the boy’s flesh. The manicure she just got was American-style, and the nails were very sharp. They were also lengthened, long and sharp and tough, as if in the next second she could be cast as Zhou Zhiruo in the next second. (TN: one of the two female lead characters in the wuxia novel The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber by Jin Yong)
The boyfriend said with a complicated mood: “And compared to me?”
Girl: “?”
The boyfriend looked at the girl seriously.
A subtle disdain appeared in the girl’s expression: “If you are that handsome, I won’t be sitting next to you now.”
Boyfriend: “…..”
The girl said intoxicatedly: “He’s really so handsome…”
“Take a picture, I’ll just snap a picture.” The girl took out her phone.
The male boyfriend reminded: “Don’t post it online.”
The girl snorted: “Am I that immoral? I’ll just send it to my friends.”
“Everyone goes out to eat, so why am I the only one meeting handsome guys?” The girl said proudly, “It’s because I have a good character, and God gives me benefits.”
The boyfriend poked at the meat on his dinner plate, feeling a sudden loss of appetite.
Only at this moment did he realize that he was no longer the most handsome guy in his girlfriend’s heart!
He estimated that he did not even rank second!
His heart hurts!
Shen Zhen was eating and didn’t notice that he was secretly photographed. After wiping the corners of his mouth with a napkin, Shen Zhen said, “Uncle, I probably won’t be able to come to the company tomorrow.”
Qin Xing frowned: “What’s the matter?”
Shen Zhen said, “I have to go to the Shen’s house and bring Su Shiqing there.”
He had to go to say hello in person, otherwise what if the Shen family got the wrong idea?
If the Shen family really thought that Su Shiqing was sent to the Shen family by the Qin family’s painstaking efforts, and these people once again colluded, although it was not impossible to deal with it, it would still be a waste of time dealing with the nuisance.
When the two sat in the car, Shen Zhen already went to fetch disinfectant and new gloves for Qin Xing very naturally. The movements were so natural and familiar that Shen Zhen didn’t even notice it. He was very close to Qin Xing when he scooted over, his ear almost even touched Qin Xing’s lips.
“Will Xiao Zhen put gloves on for Uncle?” Qin Xing said with a smile, so gentle that he could almost drown people in it.
Shen Zhen felt that this was not a difficult task, and agreed immediately: “Okay, Uncle, please stretch out your hands.”
Before putting on the gloves, he needed to use disinfectant. Shen Zhen dipped a clean insoluble paper towel with the disinfectant and carefully disinfected Qin Xing’s hands. For the first time, he found that Qin Xing’s hands were quite large, with distinct bone structure and extremely elegant lines, not rough at all, like a pair of pianist’s hands, but not so slender.
These were a pair of beautiful and powerful hands. Shen Zhen was distracted while wiping them. He wondered in a daze, what would it feel like if his hands were held in the palms of such hands?
Wait.
Shen Zhen’s eyes immediately cleared up.
What was he thinking, Uncle was so kind to him, but he was fantasizing over the other while looking at the other’s hands.
How vulgar!
Shen Zhen’s hands were a little unsteady when putting on the gloves. His little finger was trembling slightly, probably because the thought just now made Shen Zhen feel ashamed. And now when putting on the gloves for the other and having skin-to-skin contact with Qin Xing, Shen Zhen suddenly felt his mouth dry, and his heartbeat also came a little faster.
No, no, Shen Zhen quickly scolded himself in his heart.
After finally putting on the gloves, Shen Zhen felt as tired as if he had run a marathon around the city.
Looking at the interaction behind him, the driver in front felt that it was not easy to be a young master now, having to help put on the gloves, and even putting them on so carefully and earnestly.
“Why are you sweating.” Qin Xing raised his hand while speaking.
Shen Zhen thought that Qin Xing was going to touch the sweat on his forehead, but Qin Xing stretched out his finger to lift Shen Zhen’s chin.
Two sets of eyes met each other.
Shen Zhen was dumbfounded.
Qin Xing: “Old Zhang, lower the temperature.”
The driver hurriedly adjusted the temperature, thinking while adjusting, damn, even Young Master Qin didn’t get this kind of treatment back then.
Shen Zhen whispered, “It’s not very hot either.”
Qin Xing: “En?”
Shen Zhen didn’t speak.
When looking at the selection in the car dealership, Shen Zhen fell in love with August’s motorcycle at a glance. The silver-gray metal body was not the high-tech aesthetic style popular nowadays, but it also looked lighter than older models, and it gleamed coldly under natural light. At one glance, Shen Zhen couldn’t take his eyes off.
This was the feeling of love at first sight!
Qin Xing didn’t have much knowledge on motorcycles. He found that Shen Zhen’s eyes were always glued to that one. There were many motorcycles in the store, but he only had eyes for one. Qin Xing: “Then that one.”
Shen Zhen came back to his senses: “Okay.”
Of course, Shen Zhen couldn’t win against Qin Xing when paying the money. To be precise, Qin Xing didn’t fight to pick up the bill. When he was talking, the driver had already swiped the card.
As a veteran driver, old Zhang’s annual salary was also one of the best in the driver industry. According to his words: “There are so many people who can drive, five out of ten people on the roadside have a driver’s license. But why am I the only one who got rich? Driving and doing things for the boss must be grasped by both hands, and both hands must be fast!”
Now that the money had been paid, it would be hypocritical for Shen Zhen to say anything else, so he could only say sincerely: “Uncle, you are too kind to me.”
Qin Xing looked at Shen Zhen deeply, reached out and rubbed Shen Zhen’s head, then touched Shen Zhen’s ear. Kneading the earlobe with his fingertips, he said with a smile: “Uncle wants to be paid back.”
Shen Zhen regained his energy and said very seriously: “Uncle, what do you like? Tell me, as long as I can buy it, I will definitely give it to Uncle.”
Qin Xing revealed a meaningful smile: “Xiao Zhen must remember these words, and Uncle will tell you whatever I want in the future.”
Shen Zhen nodded happily: “Definitely!”
Qin Xing smiled and said, “Go and give it a test drive.”
The runway behind the store could be used for test drives. Shen Zhen took the key, and his eyes were full of joy.
He now had a car, a house, and a company. No matter how you look at it, he was a winner in life.
He wondered what Uncle liked. Shen Zhen thought to himself, he hoped it was not too expensive, he hadn’t started making money yet, and all he could use was a deposit of just a little over 10 million yuan.
Now, the house prices were so expensive that 10 million yuan could only buy a small villa in the capital.
It was better to wait until he earned money, and then use the money he earned to buy gifts for Uncle.
That way it was more sincere.
