Chapter 472: Chapter 217: Wang Qian Ni’s Pursuer Overthinks Things (Part 4)

Wang Qian Ni smiled and nodded, saying, "Hehe... you’re right, I’m mainly after cars that look good. Speed is secondary. Even if I could take off, I wouldn’t drive that fast; it’s a complete waste."

Yang Chen: "If your budget is tight, go for a Panamera or a 911. If it’s more, then a Lamborghini."

Yang Chen drove the car off the track. Wang Qian Ni got out to find her brother, while Yang Chen needed to park the car in the outside parking lot.

As Wang Qian Ni was walking, a young man with glasses and a middle part stopped her.

Wang Qian Ni: "Li Tao? When did you come back?"

Li Tao: "Haha... just came back a couple of days ago. I saw you from afar and thought it was you. Turns out it really is! Was that your boyfriend just now?"

Wang Qian Ni: "Not quite yet."

Li Tao: "That’s good. I was worried that after studying abroad for three years and coming back, you would already have someone you liked. So, can I pursue you now?"

Li Tao’s family, like Wang Qian Ni’s, is in the real estate business. The two met at a real estate industry gathering.

At that time, Li Tao was with someone named Liu Min, but from the moment he laid eyes on Wang Qian Ni, he was captivated by her.

In the words popular online, after three minutes of seeing Wang Qian Ni, Liu Min’s three years of effort were in vain.

Back then, Li Tao considered Wang Qian Ni his ideal, and adamantly broke up with Liu Min to pursue her.

Wang Qian Ni is a very individualistic person; she likes men who can dominate her.

Li Tao, labeled as a refined scoundrel, was not her type at all.

However, with both sets of parents present, Wang Qian Ni felt embarrassed to reject him outright, so she agreed to let him pursue her if she was still single when he returned from studying abroad.

From Wang Qian Ni’s perspective at the time, with her looks and family background, there was no way she wouldn’t find someone in three years. By the time Li Tao came back, she would already have someone, and he wouldn’t still have hopes for her.

This refusal method was polite enough that neither family would lose face.

Unfortunately, Wang Qian Ni just hadn’t met anyone who moved her, until Yang Chen appeared. From the first glance, she felt he was the one she had been waiting for.

However, Yang Chen showed absolutely no interest in her. She even changed her bad habits but still couldn’t attract him.

Originally, Wang Qian Ni thought she could win over Yang Chen with time, but now that Li Tao was back, it was a bit of a dilemma.

She was the one who made the promise back then; she couldn’t just go back on it, could she?

But Li Tao really wasn’t her type, and with her personality, there was no way she would agree to his advances.

Wang Qian Ni had a clever idea and said, "It might not be possible. You saw it too—there’s a guy with a Ferrari pursuing me, and I’m somewhat interested in him. I said if I didn’t have anyone, you could pursue me, but now I might have someone at any time, so you can’t pursue me. Don’t ruin my relationship with him."

Li Tao adjusted his glasses with a smile and said, "Then I’ll wait until things are settled on your end before I decide whether to pursue you. You know, I was smitten at first sight all those years ago. I hope you’ll keep your promise from back then. Okay?"

Wang Qian Ni gave an awkward smile, waved to her brother, and said, "Ah, my brother’s calling me. Let’s talk next time; I have to go."

After speaking, Wang Qian Ni quickly ran to sit down next to Wang Zijun.

Wang Zijun: "Who is it? You two looked quite engaged in conversation. Aren’t you afraid Yang Chen will misunderstand?"

Wang Qian Ni rolled her eyes and said, "Yang Chen’s parking; what’s there to see? Li Tao—the jerk from three years ago who dumped his girlfriend to get with me. Remember him?"

Wang Zijun: "Damn! It’s him! He’s back from studying abroad?"

Wang Qian Ni: "Yeah! He wants me to fulfill my promise and allow him to pursue me. I told him my relationship with Yang Chen is stable and that we’re about to confirm it, so he said he’d wait until things were finalized to decide. Ugh, it’s so annoying."

Wang Zijun: "Haha... my sister is too beautiful; can’t be helped."

Wang Qian Ni gave a helpless smile and muttered under her breath, "Then why’s he acting uninterested?"

Wang Zijun: "Yang Chen? Maybe he’s just a slow burner. Plus, you used to have a big tattoo and a Guan Gong on your back—who wouldn’t be scared? You need to give him time to get to know the new you."

Wang Qian Ni nodded, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, Li Tao was chatting with his friends.

Li Tao: "Are you sure that car belongs to Chen Lijun?"

Zhang Hai: "I’m sure. There aren’t many Ferrari 812s in all of Hai City, and I’m sure the license plate is Chen Lijun’s."

Li Tao: "Haha... so he borrowed Chen Lijun’s car to show off and woo girls, huh? But why would Chen Lijun lend him the car? Zhang Hai, could you find out for me what the relationship between him and Chen Lijun is? Please, brother."

Li Tao handed Zhang Hai a pack of Hua Zi cigarettes.

Zhang Hai smiled back, "No problem! I’ll go check over at the Sunset Raceway now." 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Li Tao smiled and nodded, happily thinking, "Wang Qian Ni specifically pointed out that a guy with a Ferrari is after her, indicating she is especially interested in that car. If she finds out that car belongs to Chen Lijun and that guy is deceiving her, she probably won’t give him a chance. Once she’s completely single, I can officially pursue her, and she can’t stop me. As a top student who studied abroad at Harvard, with a good family background, how could I not win her over?"

After a while, Zhang Hai came running back.

"I found out that guy put the car at Chen Lijun’s garage for modifications. He’s got great driving skills, so Chen Lijun lent him the car, and after the race in the afternoon, he’s teaching Chen Lijun how to drift," Zhang Hai whispered.

Li Tao smiled with satisfaction and said, "Got it. Thanks, brother."

Now it’s confirmed the car is Chen Lijun’s, and that guy just had it at Chen Lijun’s place for modifications; there’s nothing special between them. With this assurance, Li Tao, a young man of means, was full of confidence.
