Chapter 247: Chapter 142: A Rich Person’s Filial Piety, So Simple and Brutal

So she drove off with Zhang Lei’s wife, and Zhang Lei followed behind in his own beat-up Audi.

In an instant, almost everyone had left.

Xu Yun looked at the remaining group—his mom, Song Xiaowei, Yu Xuan, and Chen Xin—and smiled. "Let’s go. We’re a perfect fit for one car."

So Yu Xuan took the wheel, with Xu Yun in the passenger seat. Chen Xin, Song Xiaowei, and Zhang Sujuan sat in the back.

The white Bentley Flying Spur set off toward their destination.

Song Xiaowei couldn’t even begin to describe how nervous she was.

’I’m actually in the same car as his mother, sitting right here with her.’

On the way, Zhang Sujuan took the initiative to chat with her, asking about her background and personal life—things like her age, if she was single, what her hobbies were, and so on.

Song Xiaowei answered all her questions truthfully.

When the topic of work came up, Zhang Sujuan asked with good intentions, "What program do you host? I love watching TV in my spare time. I’ll be sure to tune in and watch you."

"Um, Auntie,"

Song Xiaowei said awkwardly, "I just started at the television station. Right now, I’m a host for a music radio station."

"That’s alright, that’s still very impressive."

Zhang Sujuan said with a smile, "What time slot is your radio show? I can be one of your listeners."

"FM 98.8, the late-night slot, from midnight to 2 AM."

"Me too! I can listen as well."

Chen Xin chimed in with a smile, "I’m up writing until late every night, so that fits my schedule perfectly.

Also, can I make a song request?"

"We have a call-in hotline."

Song Xiaowei replied with a smile, "But you can just message me directly. I’ll let you cut the line and play it for you."

"Thank you."

After hearing about Song Xiaowei’s work schedule, Xu Yun turned and said, "Just work there for a little while. The main thing is to get familiar with the environment and settle in.

When you feel ready, I’ll see if I can pull some strings and get you a different position."

"It’s okay. I’ll take my time."

Song Xiaowei said confidently, "I believe in my abilities. Sooner or later, I’ll be on the big screen for Auntie and all of you to see."

"Exactly. A girl should be confident."

Zhang Sujuan said with a smile, "I have high hopes for you. Keep it up!"

"Thank you, Auntie. I’ll do my best."

「In the Porsche 911.」

Zhang Yufei looked at the stylish woman beside her, Ning Qian, and said with envy, "Miss Ning, I’m so jealous. You get to drive such a nice car at your age."

"It’s alright. It’s all thanks to Xu Yun."

Ning Qian answered with a smile, "Without him, I wouldn’t be able to drive such a nice car."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because he bought this car for me."

Zhang Yufei: "..."

’My cousin actually bought her this sports car!!!’

’Could it be... she’s...?’

A certain possibility crossed Zhang Yufei’s mind, and she asked tentatively, "You’re not my cousin’s girlfriend, are you?"

"I’m not." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Ning Qian denied it with a smile. "I’m just a receptionist at your cousin’s company. He bought me the car simply to make my commute easier."

Zhang Yufei’s jaw dropped.

’A receptionist, and my cousin bought her a sports car worth over a million!’

’And the only reason was to make her commute easier!’

’What kind of god-tier move was that?!’

’What kind of divine treatment is that!’

’Cousin is just way too rich.’

’Suddenly, she really wanted to go work at her cousin’s company!’

Meanwhile, in the Bentley Continental GT, a similar story was unfolding.

The more Zhang Lei’s wife looked at the car, the more she liked it. ’It would be wonderful if Zhang Lei could buy a car like this someday,’ she thought.

She asked curiously, "Miss Su, how much did this car cost?"

"I’m not exactly sure. Probably over three million or so."

’So expensive.’

’On her and Zhang Lei’s salaries, they could never afford it in their entire lives!’

"This car is amazing."

Zhang Lei’s wife sighed. "I wish I could have one too."

"Wouldn’t that be easy?"

Su Mu replied with a smile, "You can just ask Xu Yun to buy one for you and your husband later."

"It’s several million, not a few dozen dollars. Please don’t joke, Miss Su."

Zhang Lei’s wife said awkwardly, "Money doesn’t grow on trees. No matter how generous someone is, they wouldn’t just give away a car worth millions on a whim."

"They wouldn’t?"

Su Mu asked, puzzled, "But he’s the one who bought me this car."

"What?"

Hearing this, Zhang Lei’s wife said in astonishment, "You’re saying Cousin Xu bought this car for you?"

"Well, you couldn’t say he bought it *for* me."

Su Mu explained, "It’s more like he bought it and just lets me drive it."

Zhang Lei’s wife: "..."

’That’s still ridiculous, okay?!’

’He bought a car worth millions and just gives it to someone else to drive instead of using it himself?’

’If they don’t have some kind of special relationship, who would do something like that?’

Zhang Lei’s wife also seemed to arrive at a certain possibility. She asked tentatively, "Miss Su, are you Cousin Xu’s girlfriend?"

Su Mu denied it. "No, we’re just normal friends."

"..."

Zhang Lei’s wife’s entire worldview was shattered!

’Just normal friends.’

’This makes no sense!’

’Maybe when I get home tonight, I should talk to my husband and have him ask for a car for our family?’

’He buys them for outsiders, and we’re his relatives, after all. It should be fine, right?’

’And to think my husband and I actually doubted him before.’

’I never would have guessed he was actually this rich!’

Soon, all six cars arrived one by one at their destination: Returning Impressions.

After two days of preparation, the stage in the middle of the water was complete.

Staff and security were all in position.

When Zhang Lei and the others arrived, they looked at the stage, now surrounded by a large crowd, and were completely dumbfounded.

’Isn’t this the performance venue for Returning Impressions?’

For the past few days, rumors had been flying all over the county that a grand, unprecedented fireworks show would be held here at Returning Impressions tonight.

If they weren’t attending Zhang Sujuan’s birthday banquet tonight, they would have come to join the fun long ago.
