Chapter 5 Driver

  "I'm delighted." Chen Shuo looked at Chu Jingyan and smiled, "Your answer makes me very happy."

  "No matter what I do, I think I should be able to handle it," Chu Jingyan said.

  Chen Shuo lit a cigarette and waved his hand, saying: "I just want to be a guide."

  Chu Jing spoke with some surprise, asking: "So you also have a hobby of being a Bo Le?"

  Chen Shuo smiled and said, "Doesn't it look like?"

  Chu Jing shook his head and said, "I just feel that I am not a thousand-mile horse."

  Don't belittle yourself.

  "Appropriate humility is still necessary."

  "You little stinker." Chen Shuo cursed with a smile, and then said: "Move out of that refugee camp and come live in the city district from now on. It's more convenient for doing things too."

  "Alright." Chu Jingyan replied.

  "You don't need to think too much about Director Jin, although he's not someone worth paying attention to, but after all, he has a certain status here, I'll go and greet him."

  Chu Jing thought for a moment and said, "I don't want to make things difficult for you, President."

  "Isn't it difficult?" Chen Shuo glanced at Chu Jingyan and smiled, "In our circle, there's never such a thing as 'difficult'. Everything is stark naked and makes people feel ashamed. I say one sentence, and Jin Shouzhang doesn't dare to say another. You should know why."

  Chu Jingyan felt it was unnecessary for her to pretend anymore.

  "Get used to daytime life, come find me at the company next Wednesday. Chen Shuo stood up, picked up his coat and said to Chu Jingyan, "I'll take you to see a place."

  "Where?"

  "A place worth our lifetime possession and striving for."

  Chu Jingyan lay on the rocking chair on the balcony, gazing at the street scene in the distance, the bustling crowd, the lively downtown area during holidays, what Chu Jingyan saw were faces filled with happy smiles.

  He saw young children jumping and skipping under the doting eyes of their parents, overjoyed to the point of being unable to contain themselves. He saw many couples embracing each other, sweetly and intimately. He saw elderly people carefully examining this city they had lived in for a lifetime with their children by their side. Chu Jingyan saw much, but felt nothing.

  The position at the Snake Palace has been resigned, no matter what, after being humiliated by Jin Xinyu like that, it's impossible for him to continue working there. The small cottage in Gali Peak Cave, however, Chu Jingyan is determined not to get rid of no matter what.

  There is no one I miss there, nor any thing I miss, it's just that Chu Jingyan simply wants to keep some things.

  Chu Jingyan's current residence is a suite of Chen Shuo's property in Qingtandong, with a good location and decoration. It is the best house Chu Jingyan has lived in since he can remember, but the only regret is that it lacks a lot of atmosphere.

  Less popular.

  In Chu Jingyan's imagination, this house should have someone else accompanying him to live.

  Chu Jingyan was very much looking forward to next week, when Chen Shuo had promised to take him to that place, just like many years ago, when the couple had promised to take him and their daughter to an amusement park. He was beyond excited, and at 22 years old, it was an age where one was easily excited and impulsive, and Chu Jingyan was no exception.

  Maturity is a disguise that Chu Jingyan must learn to put on. When there are no outsiders around, he would rather smile more often, otherwise it's hard to bear the awkwardness.

  These days, Chu Jingyan has been adjusting his biological clock here, and after sleeping enough, he will feel a bit bored.

  The next morning, Chu Jingyan pulled open the curtains and squinted her eyes to enjoy the so-called winter sunshine. After changing clothes, she found that she no longer needed to go to work. Sitting on the sofa in a daze for a while, Chu Jingyan was ready to go out for a walk, but didn't know where to go or what to do.

  Chu Jingyan put on what she should wear and walked out of the house door.

  Five years is a long time, enough for Chu Jingyan to familiarize himself with the major streets of Seoul, this not-so-big city. In the past, he would often hurry by under the cover of night, but now, as the bright and clean storefronts appear before his eyes, he feels a little at a loss, unsure of what to do.

  Chu Jingyan furrowed his brow and continued walking forward.

  Chu Jingyan felt a bit annoyed about the current feeling, he didn't have many real friends in this city, and there was no one who could be called out to chat and drink at any time. Now that he had lost his job, Chu Jingyan suddenly felt that his life was somewhat empty and lonely.

  This is truly a sad story.

  Chu Jingyan looked down at his suit and knew that this outfit was really not suitable for strolling around the streets.

  "Big brother."

  Chu Jingyan stopped in his tracks, turned around, and three men were bowing at a ninety-degree angle to greet him. It wasn't until they straightened up that Chu Jingyan recognized their faces.

  "Li Qi?" Chu Jing asked, "What are you doing here?"

  Li Qi smiled and said: "Since you resigned from the Demon Snake Temple, the president has transferred us all back. Now we are following Mr. Bai to do things."

  Mr. Bai in Li Qikou's mouth, Chu Jingyan was very familiar with him, that night when Chen Shuo talked to him, among the only two people left in the box, there was also Mr. Bai.

  Mr. Bai's full name is Bai Jiming.

  He is Chen Shuo's right-hand man.

  Chu Jing nodded and said: "Indeed much better than following me in Yaoshen Palace."

  "Aren't you angry?"

  "Why get angry with me? I'm not your boss, it's Director Chen who is. He says follow whoever, you have to follow them, no need to consider my feelings."

  Li Qi dissatisfied: "Big brother, this sentence hurts people's hearts."

  Chu Jing smiled and said, "You also know I'm not good at talking."

  "How can we find a beautiful sister-in-law like this?"

  "Your sister-in-law is still in kindergarten," Chu Jingyan said calmly.

  Chu Jingyan stood still and asked: "Mr. Bai, who are you meeting today?"

  "The woman is very pretty and young, but it's said that she has a big background, and at such a young age, she speaks more smoothly than you."

  Chu Jing didn't think Li Qi's words were flattering.

  The phone in the pocket started vibrating, Chu Jingyan took out the phone and turned his head to look at the floor-to-ceiling window of the clubhouse. Bai Jiming was waving at him, while the woman in Li Qi's mouth, due to the screen's shelter, only had a vague outline.

  She has a good figure.

  Chu Jingyan walked into the clubhouse and came to Bai Jiming's semi-open private room. Chinese people don't bow when they meet, none of the overseas Chinese elders Chu Jingyan knew loved to bow when they saw people.

  So Chu Jingyu just slightly nodded and hinted: "Mr. Bai."

  Then he looked at the person opposite him and silently cursed Li Qi, that idiot. There was an old man sitting next to the woman, why didn't he see it?

  Bai Jiming nodded and said softly to the old man beside the woman, "Mr. Li, this is one of my juniors, Chairman Chen thinks highly of him."

  The old man nodded.

  Bai Jiming said to Chu Jingyan: "This is Mr. Li Yongchang, and this is his granddaughter, Li Yunxi."

  Chu Jing spoke softly and bowed slightly.

  The old man raised his eyes and looked at Chu Jingyan, then said to Bai Jiming: "Chairman Chen's vision has always been very accurate. I can only say that the young generation is impressive."

  Bai Jiming smiled: "The old gentleman is overpraising, young people still need to be tempered."

  Li Yongchang waved his hand, and his wrinkled face smiled like a withered tree bark: "You Chinese people always say these things. Qingtandong Chujingyan, I also heard it from the younger generation at home."

  Bai Jiming smiled but did not speak.

  Li Qi walked in from outside, walked to Bai Jiming's side, bent down and whispered something in his ear. After listening, Bai Jiming said to Li Yongchang: "Old man, everyone is here, we can go now."

  Li Yongchang nodded, but Li Yunxi beside him suddenly said: "Grandpa, I still have to go back to the company."

  Bai Jiming heard this and smiled, saying: "If Miss Li has an urgent matter, I can send someone to take you back first. It's more appropriate for Mr. Li's driver to stay here with the old man."

  Li Yongchang nodded: "Trouble Mr. Bai."

  Bai Jiming smiled and said "don't mention it", then turned his head to Chu Jingyan and said: "Jingyan, if there's nothing else, would you mind sending Miss Li back to their company?"

  Chu Jingyan, who had been pretending to be dead all along, looked very innocent and asked why he had to go and be a free driver for no reason.

  Li Yunxi stood up and smiled at Chu Jingyan: "Then I'll trouble Mr. Chu."

  Chu Jing blinked her eyes.

  A black Mercedes-Benz sedan drove slowly on the road, Chu Jingyan was driving by himself, Li Yunxi sat beside him, staring at her phone doing something, but the faint fragrance in the car made Chu Jingyan very uncomfortable, because it was the body scent of the woman beside him.

  Li Yunxi didn't know when he put down his phone and looked at Chu Jingyan, asking: "Are you very famous?"

  Chu Jingyun didn't know why Li Yunxi would ask this question, so he shook his head honestly.

  "Why did my grandfather know you?"

  Chu Jingyu still replied honestly: "I don't know."

  Li Yunxi furrowed his brow and said, "How boring, can't you see that I'm just trying to find something to talk about out of boredom? Don't you think the atmosphere in the car is a bit too dull?"

  Chu Jing thought for a moment and said, "I can play some music to liven up the atmosphere."

  Li Yunxi stared blankly at Chu Jingyan, and Chu Jingyan turned his head to look at Li Yunxi, who suddenly burst out laughing.

  This woman is quite good-looking when she smiles.

  Having laughed enough, Li Yunxi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a tissue and said: "I didn't know you were this kind of person. It's my fault, I shouldn't have talked to you."

  "What's wrong?"

  "I'm afraid I'll die laughing."

  "I've never seen anyone die from laughing."

  "Stop talking, I'm going to laugh again."

  This woman is really annoying.

  Chu Jingyu interrupted Li Yunxi's laughter and said, "You haven't told me where your company is yet."

  Li Yunxi smiled and looked at Chu Jingyan, saying: "Do you know where S&M company is?"

  "I don't know."

  "I'll give you directions."

  "No need, I have navigation."
