So Pure, So Flirtatious

Chapter 156



Chapter 156: Temporary Boyfriend

Sun Jie hesitated a little before regaining her composure. She was a strong woman who stood by her words. Even though she was uncomfortable with Yang Ming caressing her thigh without restraint, she forcefully held it in and didn’t push him away.

Originally, Yang Ming merely wanted to tease her, but he noticed she had no response at all. Even more so, she allowed Yang Ming to do whatever he wanted. Hence, he lost the intention to continue it. It wasn’t him pretending to be prudish at this moment. With such a delicate opportunity, he wouldn’t want to miss it. The problem was that Sun Jie was driving. If an accident occurred, that would be the end.

Becoming a ghost after dying under peonies is also romantic [1], Yang Ming wouldn’t want to be involved in such a smart*ss matter. Although he used to carry this quote with him sometimes, it was still far different between saying so and acting upon it!

“Why did you stop?” Yang Ming stopped his hand. On the other hand, Sun Jie was irritated, Am I not attractive? Can’t I handle even a little brat? Sun Jie certainly deemed Yang Ming as a newbie. This was due to Yang Li’s misguidance as she described Yang Ming as the hated underachiever of the class.

“Focus on your driving. I don’t want to die yet.” Yang Ming thought to himself.

Sun Jie curled her lips. She thought Yang Ming was only acting cool. In fact, the actual reason was his shyness!

Hence, the two of them misunderstood each other. Each had an ax to grind as they were in the same car. Apparently, the situation was in equilibrium as they each had their own agenda. Aside from chatting about minute matters, there wasn’t anything worthy to discuss.

Yang Ming attempted to coax out Sun Jie’s family background, but she acted dumb in response to brush it aside.

The R8 TDI Le Mans employed a 5.5 liter v12 TDI diesel engine. The highest power reached 500 bhp with a torque of 1010 nm. It reached the top speed of 298 km/h. The car accelerated from 0-100 kilometers per hour in 4.2 seconds. A modern coupe could not challenge this speed. Thus, Sun Jie intentionally slowed down the speed of the car. They would be approaching the urban area in a moment where they couldn’t be fast even if they wanted to.

For a sports car, besides the cool appearance, there weren’t many places to utilize its strengths in the country. Moreover, Sun Jie’s R8 TDI Le Mans was exceptionally awesome. Driving it on the street would draw the attention of more than 90 percent of the people. The reason was simple. There was a ruthless person known as Iron Man driving this car as well.

“How is it? The power is not bad, right?” Sun Jie was proud of her car.

“It is not bad, but it can’t run at high speed in the country.” Yang Ming shook his head, “The engine is left unappreciated.”

“That… Initially, I was fond of the car because Iron Man drove it. Only after I bought it, I realized that it wasn’t suitable for our country.” Sun Jie shook her head, “At least, it’s cool appearance is an undeniable fact.”

‘Do you know why?” Yang Ming asked.

“Why? Isn’t it because Iron Man drove this car?” Sun Jie answered feeling puzzled.

“The fact that Iron Man drove it is just one aspect. The reason is that the car looked like Iron Man!” Yang Ming wouldn’t stop talking until he surprised her.

“Looks like Iron Man?” Sun Jie sweated a bit. In hindsight, the car carried the essence of it. She couldn’t help but admire Yang Ming for his creativity.

Originally, Yang Ming thought the vice president, Guo Jianchao, would arrange the meal at their own place, Tavern Heaven On Earth. He didn’t anticipate that Sun Jie would park her car in front of the entrance of a nightclub.

The Nightless Club was one of the top three nightclubs in Song Jiang. Aside from its large space, the facilities were great. Most importantly, it was safe to hang around here! Those who could afford a place like this more or less had some social connection. If the government inspectors were here, most likely there would only be fines imposed. However, they should be wary of getting involved with the underworld. They didn’t care about the person’s identity, beating them up first even before speaking to them.

The Nightless Club was popular because of the people who looked after this place. Those were the ones who were actually part of the underworld. They were a different kind of security guard. In a nightclub, they would make it the first time no matter the severity of the conflict. A normal security guard would hide when a fight broke out.

With someone looking after the place, naturally, there would be fewer troublemakers. Hence, the high-class white collar individuals favored this place.

Nightless Club was a huge place with the combination of bathing massage, dining bar, disco bar, KTV and many others entertainments.

Yang Ming had quite a common outfit. However, he came out of an R8, so, the receptionist wouldn’t dare to look down on him. In these years, there was an abundance of rich people with weird fetishes. Wearing cheap clothes wasn’t much. He had encountered someone who was on a tricycle. At that time, he wanted to shoo away that person who had such a displeasing appearance. Luckily, an experienced receptionist stopped him in time and told him the person’s identity!

The tricycle man was the boss of the biggest furniture mall! However, he was always on his tricycle when he delivered furniture to other people. Rumor said it began with his leg having issues. The doctor wanted him to train. Later, his legs had recovered, but, he was fond of such an appearance and he couldn’t let it go.

“Ladies and gentlemen, do you have a prior reservation?” The receptionist asked.

“Dining bar ‘Lilac room’.” Sun Jie said to the receptionist.

“Alright, please come with me.” As he said, he leaned his body and led the way for Yang Ming and company. Even though the decor here was quite luxurious, it was different from Tavern Heaven On Earth. Tavern Heaven On Earth was filled with elegant nobility. However, the atmosphere here was magnificently extravagant.

“This is the place.” The receptionist stopped in front of a room written ‘Lilac.” He offered a “Welcome” gesture and knocked on the door. Then, he opened the room and said, “I am sorry to bother you. There are three guests coming in.”

The receptionist excused himself. Sun Jie, Yang Ming, and Yang Li entered the room.

“Sun Jie, you’ve finally arrived. Welcome, welcome.” A man wearing spectacles with a golden frame stood up from the couch and approached them.

“Guo Jianchao, it isn’t quite right with what you said. Sister Sun Jie and I arrived on time. Why are you saying it as though we are late?” Yang Li said with dissatisfaction.

“Who would say that you are late? I am just impatient to see our pretty girls.” Guo Jianchao only realized Yang Ming’s presence next to Sun Jie. He asked in surprise, “Who is this?”

‘This is my boyfriend, Yang Ming.” Sun Jie generously held Yang Ming’s hand as she said this.

“Boyfriend? Sun Jie – he is your boyfriend?” Guo Jianchao was stunned. Even though Sun Jie used to tell him she had a boyfriend, Guo Jianchao still considered it as a fluke. He thought Sun Jie wanted to deal with him perfunctorily. He never thought the person would appear in front of his eyes.

“Yes, Yang Ming. Let me introduce you. This is Guo Jianchao, the Vice President of Song Jiang City’s Xiongfeng Group. He is only 29 years old. He may be considered to have a bright future!” Sun Jie said.

“Nice to meet you.” Yang Ming extended his hand. He needed to cover it up nicely.

But, Guo Jianchao was stunned looking at Sun Jie. He didn’t have any intention to receive Yang Ming’s handshake.

Motherf*****, what is the meaning of this? I am offering you some respect. You shouldn’t blame me for what is going to happen to you! Yang Ming’s anger swelled within him. You think I’m just empty air? Anyhow, Sun Jie is still my temporary girlfriend. Why are you staring at her like this?

Yang Ming released his hand and said plainly, “Xiaojie [2], Mr. Guo seems to be hostile toward me.”

At this moment, Guo Jianchao finally regained his composure. With embarrassment, he extending his hand and offered a handshake to Yang Ming. However, Yang Ming didn’t even bother with him. Guo Jianchao couldn’t help but put down his hand. In a typical scenario, as the elite of the business field, he wouldn’t make such a silly mistake. Even though he was hostile, he wouldn’t express it immediately. That would be a taboo in the business field! But, he liked Sun Jie too much. Hence, he had lost his composure.

But, he seemed to be out of luck. Right now, Yang Ming had listed him as a person who deserved a beating.

“Mr. Yang, that would be a misunderstanding… I do have feelings for Miss Sun. I was out of my mind just now. I don’t have any ill intentions toward you.” Guo Jianchao quickly explained.

Pretentious *ss, you should keep putting up on your act! Wang Zhitao was using the same strategy, and you used it again. Without a doubt, birds of the same feather flock together! Didn’t you have any ill intention? Only a ghost would believe it!

“Well said, well said.” Yang Ming nodded but thought to himself, Who wouldn’t know how to hide a dagger behind a smile?

Sun Jie was satisfied with Yang Ming’s performance, but Yang Li didn’t think so. She dragged Yang Ming out for the purpose of shaming him. She didn’t expect Yang Ming to handle the situation well. When she tried to say something, Guo Jianchao began speaking.

“Mr. Yang, let me introduce you to the people with us here. This is Vice President Liao of Song Jiang Airport,” said Guo Jianchao as he pointed at a short fatty.

Yang Ming nodded his head toward him. The short fatty responded with a smile.

“This is President Hua from Hua Jewelry Company.” Guo Jianchao pointed at a skinny man as he spoke.

Yang Ming still nodded his head. But, President Hua looked at Yang Ming in a scornful manner. He simply greeted Yang Ming with “Hmph.”

Chapter Notes:

[1] It is a Chinese idiom which reflects that it is worth to give up everything for a pretty girl.

[2] Xiao in this context is a more intimate way of addressing someone. In this case, Yang Ming addressed Sun Jie as Xiao Jie to show that they are closed to one another. In a way, it showed Yang Ming being smart enough to adapt his acting to the situation.
