87: Chapter 87: Slang?
Big Bluff!
Bo Jingshen: “It’s the bet.”
Su Lu blinked in surprise, “Then what’s their bet?”
Bo Jingshen chuckled lowly, glancing at her sideways, “It’s about swapping the partners they brought with them.
You heard him just now, right?
Everyone brought a date, and the winners, the top three, get to pick from the partners others brought.”
Su Lu’s eyes nearly popped out of her head.
Their conversation indeed had a secret code in it!
She felt a sudden urge to call the police.
What kind of bizarre competition is this?
So…
promiscuous?
Walking ahead, Ji Fulian and Jiang Li clearly had good hearing; they’d heard what Bo Jingshen had said.
Ji Fulian looked back, slightly exasperated, “President Bo, like this…
my racetrack will easily get reported.”
Even Jiang Li, who had been in such a bad mood earlier, now showed a smile, “Can you be any more harmful?
You’re about to take all the bamboo shoots.”
“Tsk.” Bo Jingshen clicked his tongue.
As if blaming them for not playing along.
Su Lu blinked rapidly, “You big con artist?”
And such a convincing one at that!
She’d almost believed it for real!
Ji Fulian explained to her that it was actually about gambling money; every racer had to pay an entry fee, which was 50 here.
After adding up the entry fees for each race, subtracting the expenses and commission for Ji Fulian’s racetrack, the remainder would be split by the first, second, and third place winners, at proportions of 50%, 30%, and 20%, respectively.
There was still a threshold to et.
Although this money might not be much for these rich kids, a 50% prize was still quite substantial, and so would hire others to race for them.
“500,000 per person?” Su Lu blinked, and though it wasn’t a lot for them indeed, the idea of these people throwing so much money into it just for a thrill was still…
hard to comprehend.
Bo Jingshen and Jiang Li quickly picked out cars, and then ca the racing suits and helts.
Su Lu stared at the helt and racing suit in her hands, slightly dumbfounded.
“What are you waiting for?
Go change,” Bo Jingshen tapped on the sleek, white full-face helt with his finger.
Su Lu said helplessly, “Do I have to wear all this, too?”
“Mmhmm, you must wear it.” Bo Jingshen nodded, carrying his helt and racing suit toward the changing room.
Su Lu could only sigh and head to the changing room as well.
When she ca out changed, Bo Jingshen was already dressed in his racing suit, standing there.
At this mont, he lacked the elite aura he had when wearing a suit.
His entire deanor was edgy, as if every pore, every detail was exuding a sharp, cutting charm.
Holding his helt and pinching his gloves, he turned his head to look at Su Lu and then beckoned her over.
Su Lu walked up to him, “I feel like an astronaut.”
Bo Jingshen reached out to straighten her racing suit, “Not bad, Astronaut Su.
I’ll take you beyond the pull of gravity in a bit.”
Su Lu understood what he ant; he was exaggerating that he drove so fast it was like breaking free from gravity.
But at that mont, a song title popped into Su Lu’s head—’Elope to the Moon.’
Su Lu’s ears were already blazing, but with her helt fastened, Bo Jingshen couldn’t see how red they’d gotten, though she could feel them burning as if they were about to catch fire.
Jiang Li had also changed into his suit already.
Ji Fulian was also dressed in her racing suit, standing by his side.
“The host participates too?” Bo Jingshen saw Ji Fuling had also changed her clothes and asked casually.
Ji Fuling smiled, “I’m just going to ride along with the second young master to get a feel for it, since he didn’t bring a partner anyway.”
“Oh.” Bo Jingshen responded, glancing at Jiang Li.
Jiang Li still had a neutral expression on his face, showing little emotion.
The previous race had already ended, and the drivers were making their way toward this side.
There were indeed both n and won, it seed that many had brought partners with them.
Su Lu saw so familiar faces, although they might not have had much acquaintanceship, but she had t them at various parties.
Bo Jingshen, on the other hand, seed indifferent, not very familiar with Feng City’s social circle to begin with, so he just cast a few casual glances without much interest.
However, his gaze soon froze, his pupils contracted slightly, his brows furrowed lightly, and his expression suddenly beca more irritable.
And the person who made his expression sour had just t his gaze.
“Hmm?
What a coincidence, huh?” The newcor looked at him with a smile, leisurely uttering a na, “Jingshen.”
Bo Jingshen actually disliked people calling him this way the most; it always made him feel very uncomfortable.
But there are always people who call him that, like Zhuang Cai Nan, and the person in front of him now…
“Tang Cheng.” Bo Jingshen uttered his na coldly.
The person was indeed Tang Cheng.
Even though he was dressed in a racing suit and had yet to remove his helt, just lifting the visor, Su Lu had already recognized him.
He was that noble son from Beijing she had t once in Hai City.
He seed to be no different from when they t in Hai City, his smile appearing as impeccable as ever.
Ji Fuling clearly didn’t know about their past conflict, not to ntion Ji Fuling, even Jiang Li was unaware.
Ji Fuling asked in surprise, “Hm?
President Bo, you know Mr.
Tang?”
Tang Cheng: “Sowhat familiar.”
Bo Jingshen said coldly, “Don’t know him.”
Tang Cheng wasn’t annoyed and responded with a smile, “Jingshen, how can you say we don’t know each other?”
As Tang Cheng said that, he gestured with his hand behind him, “Co on, over here.”
Soon, a figure bounced up behind him, slender and graceful, young and beautiful, her face bearing a smile, and still flushed from the exhilaration of the race she had just been in.
However, the flush and smile on her face beca rigid the mont she saw Bo Jingshen, “Uh…”
And Tang Cheng’s facial expression remained impeccable, as always, “Jing Ruo, look, what a coincidence.”
Su Lu originally had no idea what was going on; she could feel Bo Jingshen’s aversion to Tang Cheng.
And then she saw this young and beautiful woman, the one who previously appeared at Bo Jingshen’s company, at Bo Jingshen’s residence, and who acted intimately towards Bo Jingshen.
The mont she saw her, Su Lu’s mood, which had been quite good, inevitably dropped.
But soon, she heard Tang Cheng’s words.
Jing Ruo, look, what a coincidence.
Before, Su Lu had never really thought about it, mainly because won may just be more emotional, perhaps?
She wasn’t unfamiliar with Jing Ruo’s na, but she hadn’t really given it much thought.
It was only now that she started to ponder, especially after hearing Tang Cheng call Bo Jingshen—Jingshen.
Now hearing him address her as—Jing Ruo.
From the sa voice, unhurriedly uttering two nas, Su Lu felt she had just belatedly realized.
Were these two people’s nas…
sowhat similar in aning?
