Chapter 3

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

After Ning Zhi left, Zhen Li finally remembered who he was after thinking for half a day; he is a local celebrity, a leader among the wealthy second generation.

After taking three deep breaths, Zhen Li finally opened the car door and stepped out. At that moment, the other party also got out of the car. They exchanged a glance amidst the dazzling lights, which should have been a moment of sudden recognition in the romantic ambiance under the dim lights. Unfortunately, the incessant honking from behind completely disrupted the mood.

His call log is not extensive; it is just that the time for me to remember is too short, making it impossible to recall with complete accuracy. Therefore, I have tried many combinations, Zhen Li said

Sugege cheerfully patted Zhen Li's shoulder, "I wonder why you enjoy hanging out with those bookworms; it seems your efforts have not been in vain."

Good things often come with many trials

Ah, give me one of those Bondi-style ones," Su Gege exclaimed eagerly, "That's really advanced, where did you get it? Was it from a certain treasure?

However, Zhen Li felt that Ning Zhi's mouth was slightly asymmetrical, so she was not very interested in him. She thought that if Su Gege knew that she had encountered Ning Zhi tonight, she would probably scream with excitement

It must be time

Zhen Li felt resentful towards the traffic police for their inaction, isn't it prohibited in the city to honk indiscriminately and create noise

Sui Yudao: "The car belongs to my friend. I have already called him, and he will be here shortly. You can arrange a time with him."

Thank you. Zhen Li decisively opened the passenger door of the car worth two million, then leaned out and said to Sui Yu: "Sui Yu, you should get in the car too."

"No," Sui Yu replied

What to try

Zhen Li smiled and continued to wait for a moment, but unfortunately, after Sui Yu reported his name, there was no further response

His name is Sui Yu, and the number still needs to be tested. Zhen Li glanced at the time on his phone; it was already 10:00 in the morning. Although it was the weekend, real estate agents never take two days off and do not have a closing time. Zhen Li had received countless nuisance calls from real estate agents after 8:00 PM.

Zhen Li is greatly disappointed; being a non-local significantly reduces the chances of a romantic relationship. Communication via phone or video does not meet Zhen Li's expectations for love; what she needs is a warm and tangible relationship.

Zhen Li, in a moment of excitement, almost dropped Su Gege's phone. After pressing the call end button, Zhen Li tossed the phone to Su Gege, saying, "This is the number."

After a half-second pause, the other party said: "Miss Zhen."

The busy tone of a disconnected call came directly from the other end

With her speed and accuracy of instantaneous memory, she would likely qualify for a program titled "Let Science Become Popular"

Even without much practical experience, Zhen Li was able to discern from the silence the information that Sui Yu was not interested in him

It turns out that Mr. G does not have the surname Ji, and his attitude does not seem to be arrogant either

What was that person's name yesterday? What is their phone number? Su Gege's interest in science lasted only half a second before she started gossiping

With just these two sentences, it directly transitioned from Mr. Sui to Sui Yu

"Please give me the phone." Zhen Li opened his palm, and after receiving the phone from Su Gege, he dialed the first number. Upon hearing the other party answer, he spoke in a slightly altered voice, saying: "Hello, this is Zhongcheng Real Estate. May I ask if the house in Greenwich is for sale?"

Last night, when Zhen Li was saving his phone number in Ning Zhi's phone, he quickly clicked on his call log as he pressed the exit button

After all, no one would ever take pride in stepping on a small mound; only those who stand at the summit of Mount Everest are qualified to boast on social media.

Zhen Li originally wanted to continue making efforts, but unfortunately, the people's servants—the police comrades—arrived far too quickly

Zhen Li glanced at Su Ge Ge in silence and said, "The little gadgets made by the senior in the club, patented technology, you can have it, just don't lose it, and don't infringe on it. He has plenty of interesting little gadgets in hand, so we mustn't offend him"

Zhen Li pondered for three seconds and smiled, saying: "Mr. Sui, rest assured, I will not casually disturb you with phone calls. I just want to conveniently arrange a time for our meeting."

In the dimly lit carriage, an awkward silence prevailed

Mr. Sui, who stands before me, is dressed casually, showing no signs of any brand value. However, when it comes to assessing a person, one must consider their demeanor. This individual possesses a politeness that is accompanied by a suitable degree of detachment, striking the perfect balance. Not only does this not evoke any feelings of aversion, but it also makes the sense of distance seem entirely justified.

After trying five phones, Zhen Li finally heard a familiar voice on the other end.

The next day, when Zhen Li met Su Ge Ge, Su Ge Ge rushed up to her like a cannonball, "Zhen Li, what happened last night? Hurry up and explain everything from the beginning."

Sui encountered a vehicle, and Zhen Li smiled shyly, "Since we are both idle anyway, waiting together is certainly more interesting than waiting alone, right"

Such a person would certainly not borrow a car to drive; it is more likely that someone else offered the convenience. Thus, Zhen Li asked, "Mr. Sui is not from City A, is he?"

The traffic police will be here shortly. After the responsibility determination report is issued, we can schedule a time to assess the damages. "Zhen Li said, "My name is Zhen Li. What is your phone number? I will call you to arrange a time.

One minute after the arrival of the traffic police officer, Sui Yu's friend also arrived at the scene. The accident was quickly resolved, as both parties involved were very reasonable.

Zhen Li does not hold back; although failure may be somewhat embarrassing, it is even more worthwhile to share experiences and learn lessons.

Sui encountered a friend who looked very familiar, around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, and Ning Zhi proactively and enthusiastically provided his contact information to Zhen Li, then, with a somewhat anxious demeanor, said: "You can call me anytime"

"It is cold outside in the evening, so it is better to wait in the car," Sui Yu said

What does it mean to be overly familiar? Miss Zhenli has certainly given Sui Yu a vivid lesson

Is there still a need to say it? Zhen Li proudly shook her phone

The attentive and considerate lady, Zhen Lixiang, probably feels that she has encountered a gentleman, yet she is filled with regret in her heart. She wonders how such a beautiful city like City A, with its splendid mountains and waters, has failed to retain a good man

"I am truly sorry; it is entirely my fault," Zhen Li sincerely apologized. He then took a moment to inspect the rear-end collision site, actually seizing the opportunity to retrieve the Bondi-style GPS locator, thereby erasing the evidence. After this, Zhen Li straightened up, took out his phone, and photographed the scene for documentation. He then brushed his hair back with his hand and, with a somewhat coy smile directed at his target, said, "Shall we move the car to the side? I have already taken photos for documentation; we just need to make a call to the traffic police and the insurance company."

It is said that Su Gege's friends are all from families with assets of at least one hundred million.

Those who are eager to return home, rush to events, or check into hotels lose their patience and courtesy when the green light turns on. If this rear-end collision is not resolved soon, Zhen Li and the gentleman Mr. G in front of him will likely experience a variety of insults brought about by different dialects.

Originally, upon seeing Su Gege's aloof demeanor, Zhen Li had already prepared to be met with a cold reception. However, to his surprise, the other party was quite understanding and displayed a commendable grace.

Sui tilted his head slightly, smiling faintly without responding

Zhen Li got out of the car and made separate calls to the traffic police and the insurance company. Meanwhile, Mr. G, sitting in the car, also seemed to be on a call. Upon noticing her standing outside the car window, the other party quickly ended the call and got out of the car

Sugege gave Zhen Li a thumbs up and said, "How many numbers have you memorized?"

If Su Gege were here, he would definitely be facepalming, as Zhen Li indeed lacks experience, and the topic of this pickup line is rather awkward

Mr. G merely nodded, turned around, and moved the car to the adjacent non-motorized vehicle lane to pause. Fortunately, at this moment, it was late at night, and there were very few pedestrians in the non-motorized vehicle lane, preventing further traffic congestion

Zhen Li could not be bothered to respond to Su Gege's remark, "Not understanding science is truly frightening." "I have told you long ago that science is the key to pursuing the rich and handsome, and marrying the beautiful and wealthy."

The more I look, the more handsome he becomes, with perfectly symmetrical features on both sides of his face. His height is also within the optimal range, allowing him to stand out in a crowd without the risk of hitting the door frame when entering.

Although flying has become as convenient as taking a taxi these days, the time cost of long-distance relationships is quite high. What is it that people like Sui Yu lack the most?

Then this evening is simply not pleasant at all

Sui Encounter

The reason Zhen Li did not continue to entangle with Sui Yu afterwards was merely because she urgently needed time to organize her memories; such rapid recollection can easily be forgotten as time passes

Sui Yu responded with a silent, faint smile as before

Zhen Li's manner of eating was indeed a bit hasty, not understanding that good cabbage must be slowly turned over. After all, humans are not animals; they are not so direct, and it is not the case that simply finding someone attractive can immediately lead to passing on one's genes.

Zhen Li's little thoughts seemed to be laid bare under the sunlight, fortunately, she had applied makeup today, and it was not light.

When you are anxious, they always make you wait; now that you are no longer anxious, they appear before you with lightning speed

Zhen Li suffered a disastrous defeat on his first attempt, yet he did not lose heart. A significant part of the thrill in pursuing the opposite sex comes from the sense of conquest

If Sui Yu and Ning Zhi were present, they would probably be very surprised, as Zhen Li did not obtain Sui Yu's phone number at all last night

Hello, this is Zhongcheng Real Estate. May I ask if the house in Greenwich is for sale

Zhen Li has been associating with Su Gege, this little tycoon, for so many years, yet has never witnessed such noble demeanor among her wealthy friends.

With the mindset of "since I can't catch up anyway, I might as well be a bit bolder," Zhen Li continued to strive, saying: "China has a population of 1.3 billion, and last year's car ownership was 279 million vehicles. If we can bump into each other in this vast sea of cars, it can be considered fate, right?"
