Huang Xiaolong and Cui Feiyan exited the Prosperous Imperial Court housing estate together.
It was indeed not very late yet and looked around eight something and definitely before nine o’clock.
“Alright, what do you want as your gift?” Cui Feiyan asked calmly.
“Um… I haven’t figured it out yet. Can you give me a minute to think about it?” Huang Xiaolong replied very seriously.
“Sure. We’ll go to New World Shopping Mall. You can think about it on our way there. Tell me once you think of something,” Cui Feiyan said patiently. “We’re even on the thing that happened between us for today so don’t try to be cheeky and say anything to my dad, alright?”
“Don’t worry, I’m not that kind of person.” Huang Xiaolong smiled. “By the way, is there a limit to how much I could spend on my gift?”
Cui Feiyan glanced at Huang Xiaolong. She was in the wrong about the thing that happened earlier, after all. She sighed. “As long as you like it, it’s fine. But don’t go overboard.”
“That sounds good to me.” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes were filled with joy.
His uncle’s place was pretty bare so Huang Xiaolong planned to make more money so that he could buy various household appliances and daily necessities for the place. Now that he felt like everything was going according to his plan, he was already considering whether to ask Cui Feiyan for a bed or a big television…
Cui Feiyan walked out of the housing estate, toward a moonlight white Maserati Quattroporte.
“Feiyan, take my car, I have a car,” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile.
“Your car…” Cui Feiyan looked at Huang Xiaolong’s BYD F3 and was suddenly speechless.
To be honest, Cui Feiyan had never been on a BYD in her entire life!
“Feiyan, don’t be so reserved, come on, get in. It’s convenient.” Huang Xiaolong was very warm.
“Um…I…” Cui Feiyan struggled inwardly as she looked at Huang Xiaolong opening the door and entering the car quickly and starting the engine.
‘Whatever, just a little while longer. I just have to get him a good gift quickly and we’ll go our separate ways.’ Cui Feiyan gritted her teeth and strode over with her high heels. By the time she reached the door, Huang Xiaolong had already opened the passenger seat’s door for her.
She entered the car.
Inside the car, Cui Feiyan, who was used to only top luxury cars all her life, felt incredibly beside herself. “Do you know where New World Shopping Mall is located?”
“I have already set up the navigation.” Huang Xiaolong put the phone on his lap and held onto the steering wheel. Soon, the BYD F3 sped off quickly.
Huang Xiaolong got them to the city in a short amount of time and Cui Feiyan realized that Huang Xiaolong was pretty good at driving. Besides stopping at the traffic lights, he did not jolt the brakes, not even once throughout the whole journey. Even though it was not the luxury car she was used to, it was a really smooth car ride with no bumps or discomfort. In fact, Cui Feiyan felt a sense of comfort while sitting in his car!
‘Is this really happening? I didn’t know a BYD was this comfortable.’
Cui Feiyan looked at Huang Xiaolong, who was dressed very poorly. That was why she could not help but be surprised. “Your driving skills are very good. How long have you been driving?”
“Eh? Me? I’ve never driven a car before.” Huang Xiaolong answered honestly. “Can I tell you a secret, Feiyan? I actually don’t have a driver’s license.”
“Can you take some responsibility in your words? You’ve never driven a car? Do you think I’m an idiot?” Cui Feiyan glanced at Huang Xiaolong contemptuously and turned her head away. Her gaze landed outside of the window and she did not bother saying anything anymore.
To be honest, Cui Feiyan was in quite a complicated mood then. Other than her father, she had never gone out alone with a man in her entire life.
Usually, the people that asked her out consisted of men with second-generation wealth, politicians’ kids, successful business owners, or celebrities which were all rejected by her. However, to think that a little farmer boy going out with her to shop was really funny to her.
It was a weird feeling for her and Cui Feiyan felt herself frowning slightly. ‘It’ll only be this one time. This is a thick-skinned guy that speaks rubbish all the time. I bet the only thing he knows is ghostbusting. He and I are in completely different circles. I’m sure we won’t meet much more after this…’
Huang Xiaolong looked at Cui Feiyan from the corner of his eye as he drove. He saw that her eyes undulated like the waves in the sea and saw her elitist air. Under the light that shone through the window and onto her profile, the light on her skin glowed beautifully and with luster. When Huang Xiaolong saw that, he could not help but feel a man’s strong urge to protect her.
“Uh, Feiyan. Do you think you’ll be free these few days?” Huang Xiaolong asked.
“Why?” Cui Feiyan asked cautiously.
“Since you’ve gotten entangled with a malicious spirit, I have to resolve it for you. This kind of thing shouldn’t be delayed. The longer you drag it on, the more it’ll hurt you,” Huang Xiaolong said solemnly. “Besides, I charge reasonably. It’ll only be 10000 bucks since we’ve gotten to know each other. Don’t worry, I won’t try to scam you.”
“About that…” Cui Feiyan thought for a while. “Just give me some time.”
She wanted to see how it goes for a few more days. If she stopped having her nightmares, it would mean that she would not have to contact Huang Xiaolong ever again.
After a while, they arrived at New World Shopping Mall.
It was located in an extremely prosperous business district with rows upon rows of various skyscrapers that were brightly lit like a city that never sleeps.
New World Shopping Mall was the tallest building in that business district.
It was a large-scale comprehensive shopping center that was completed with department stores, clothing shops, restaurants, luxury goods, leisure and entertainment, electronic and digital products, supermarkets, jewelry… and many more.
Huang Xiaolong parked his car in the free parking space.
When he got out of the car with Cui Feiyan, passers-by from all directions looked over at them.
Everyone was confused!
A boy dressed like a peasant driving a BYD F3 unexpectedly brought a knockout goddess… That made no f*cking sense!
“Let’s get it done as soon as possible.” The strange eyes that stared them made Cui Feiyan feel very awkward. She deliberately kept her distance from Huang Xiaolong and urged him. “Have you decided what gift you want?”
“Holy cow… It’s so lively here… This New World Shopping Mall sure is tall! The stuff inside must be expensive, huh? Feiyan, sorry about this time, I might make you go bankrupt.” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes gleamed as he looked around everywhere.
“Whatever!” Cui Feiyan ignored Huang Xiaolong and marched straight to the main building of New World Shopping Mall.
Huang Xiaolong followed behind, giggling.
Before they reached the New World Shopping Mall’s entrance, there was a large stage in the middle of the square that attracted Huang Xiaolong’s attention.
The stage took up a huge space and people crowded below it.
On top of the stage, a male emcee in a suit held a wireless microphone and shouted hard, “…Friends, we are the Golden Charm Memory Training Agency. We are a legal institution authorized by the state… We use scientific and systematic training methods to develop the right brain potential of our students to improve their memory, imagination, observation, and reaction ability… Improve the efficiency of your reading and learning…”
“Are you still worrying about studying hard but not being able to improve your grades? Are you still having a headache about the national exams? Do you worry about not remembering the speech for your conferences? Come right up! Our Golden Charm Memory Training Agency will give you supermemory skills! After this, you can have a photographic memory too!
“In order to give back to the general public for their support and love, the Golden Charm Memory Training Agency has decided to organize a special contest under the initiative of our president! Please take a look, everyone! The prizes on the stage——”
Huang Xiaolong had stared at the mountains of prizes on the stage for a long while!
A huge stage, full of dazzling things.
There were all sorts of things on the stage! In fact, they had everything!
Laundry detergents, instant noodles, soaps, essential balms, towels, mops, various beddings…
Mobile phones, digital cameras, SLR cameras, Siemens refrigerators, Sony LCD flat screens…
Brand-name shirts, suits, Louis Vuitton bags, various high-end cosmetics, Longines wristwatches…
“Oh my god. Prizes? These… these… are all prizes?” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes lit up and his heart trembled. “The people in the city are too extravagant! So many good things… are actually prizes!”
The male emcee continued to instigate the atmosphere of the place. “Do you want these prizes? Do you want them? Let me hear it if you do!”
“We want it!!!”
The onlookers below the stage screamed their lungs out! They roared like a landslide, as loud as a tsunami! Their adrenaline soared through the roof!
Huang Xiaolong forgot who he was with and also yelled out loud. “Yes! Of course! I want it! There are so many prizes! Only a fool won’t want it!”
“You… you… you…” Cui Feiyan backed away from him with his face frozen still as she looked at Huang Xiaolong. “What are you shouting so much for? This is just a promotion for their business. Do you really think that anyone would get those valuable prizes? Do you think businessmen are all fools?”
Cui Feiyan was completely speechless at Huang Xiaolong.
‘There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Only the most stupid, the most marketable, and the most gullible people would believe in that kind of prize-winning contest!’
“Feiyan, that’s not my intention. I’m just thinking that I should try my luck because all these prizes are great!” Huang Xiaolong rubbed his palms together.
“Now, I invite everyone to come onto the stage to participate in the prize-winning contest! Our first event is called Memory Breakthrough. Every time you pass a level, you will get a corresponding prize. The further you go, the more generous the prize will be! To start the first round, we need 50 participants from the audience to join us! Do you want to get a branded wristwatch? Do you want to get all kinds of luxury goods? Do you want to get the latest iPhone7? Do you want to get a seven-day tour to Europe?! Hurry up and join our Memory Breakthrough game!” The male emcee yelled like a chicken being slaughtered.
Rumble!
Countless people swarmed onto the stage!
“I want to participate! I want to get a prize!” Huang Xiaolong took a big step and squeezed towards the stage.
“Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?!” Cui Feiyan ground her teeth with disgust. “This is just… just totally embarrassing!”
