Urban Shen Lang (Complete) - Chapter 34

Chapter 279 Thick-skinned
Su Muqing walked to the file shelf and pulled out the work log for the month from among a row of notebooks. After flipping through it for a while, Su Muqing beckoned to Shen Lang and said, "Shen Lang, I found it. The waiter who was in charge of your private room that day was named Zheng Nan. Wait a moment, I'll call Zheng Nan over and ask him."
Shen Lang forced a smile, indicating his agreement.
Su Muqing made a phone call downstairs, and a moment later, there was a knock on the office door.
Su Muqing said in a cold yet authoritative voice, "Come in!"
The door opened, and a waiter who looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old walked in; this was probably Zheng Nan.
Zheng Nan saw the two people in the office, especially Su Muqing, whose expressions were very unfriendly. He had just heard Su Muqing's stern voice, and his heart skipped a beat. He asked nervously, "Boss, you wanted to see me?"
Su Muqing's expression was stern. She said, "Anan, how long have you been working at this restaurant?"
Zheng Nan, confused, could only honestly answer, "Three years, Boss." Su Muqing continued, "Then you should know my temper well, right?"
Zheng Nan broke out in a cold sweat, feeling increasingly uncertain. He weakly replied, "I know."
Su Muqing said, "That's good. Now I'll ask you a few questions. Answer honestly, and everything will be fine. But if you hide anything, I'll make sure you can't stay in Xia Jing, understand?"
At the last sentence, Su Muqing's voice suddenly rose, startling Zheng Nan. Actually,
it wasn't Su Muqing's fault. For her restaurant to have something like this happen was a disgrace. If it was done by one of her employees, it was an even greater betrayal. She absolutely wouldn't allow such a person to exist in her restaurant. According to Shen Lang's description, only four people entered the private room that night: Shen Lang, Yue Niang, herself, and a waiter. Since none of the three had served, only the waiter remained, hence her hostile attitude towards Zheng Nan.
Zheng Nan knew a little about Su Muqing's background and influence; if Su Muqing said she would make it impossible for him to stay in Xia Jing, he truly wouldn't be able to. He became increasingly apprehensive, saying, "I know, ma'am, please ask, I will answer truthfully!"
Su Muqing said, "Alright, I'll ask you. Around 8 pm on June 8th, you served in private room number 8, didn't you?"
Zheng Nan, sweating profusely, thought for a moment, then stammered after about ten seconds, "Yes... ah, that... no!"
Su Muqing's expression turned ugly, and she said sternly, "Is it true or not? You'd better think carefully. I have a record here, look for yourself!"
With that, Su Muqing threw the record book at Zheng Nan. Zheng Nan picked up the notebook but didn't look at it. Sweat streamed down his face as he said, "Boss lady, can I explain what happened back then?"
Su Muqing said, "Go ahead!"
Zheng Nan wiped his sweat and said, "Boss lady, the supervisor did assign me that private room, I don't deny that, but I never went into the room."
Upon hearing this, Su Muqing could no longer contain herself and finally exploded, "You didn't go into the private room? Did the food just fly in by itself?"
Su Muqing was furious. She hated liars more than anything in her life, and she couldn't tolerate Zheng Nan's almost sophistry.
Seeing Su Muqing's anger, Zheng Nan panicked a little and stammered, "Boss lady, no...no...it's just...I ran into Miss Zihan that day. She said the guests in room number eight were her friends, and she could take care of them herself, so...I didn't go in...If you don't believe me, we can confront Miss Zihan..."
Su Muqing was a bit overwhelmed by this news. If the situation was true...then Zihan was definitely involved!
After a long while, Su Muqing said incredulously, "Zihan? She came that day?"
Zheng Nan was also somewhat surprised and said, "Boss lady, you didn't know? But...I really didn't lie, boss lady, I really didn't!"
At this moment, Shen Lang's heart was in turmoil. Could the Miss Zihan that Zheng Nan mentioned be Zhang Zihan? If it was Zhang Zihan...that makes sense. No wonder he felt something was off about that girl that day. Not only did she seem familiar, but she also had such a good figure. He was wondering why a girl with such good looks would work as a waitress. Shen Lang had only ever seen two girls with such a great figure in his life: Ji Xiyan and Zhang Zihan!
Yes, it must be her!
So, Shen Lang couldn't help but ask, "Anan, is the Miss Zihan you're talking about surnamed Zhang?"
Zheng Nan was completely confused, but still hurriedly nodded. Shen Lang thought to himself, "Yes, that's it! I offended her, and she followed me here to seek revenge, and she actually seized the opportunity."
Shen Lang gave Su Muqing a look, and Su Muqing understood, saying, "Anan, there's nothing more for you here, you can go out now. I misunderstood you earlier, I'm really sorry."
The proprietress apologized to him, and Zheng Nan was somewhat flattered, hurriedly saying, "Proprietress...you're too kind, I'm fine, I'll go back to work now." Su Muqing nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead!"
After Zheng Nan left, Su Muqing couldn't help but ask, "Shen Lang, do you know Zihan?"
Shen Lang didn't answer but asked instead, "Does Muqing know her too?"
Su Muqing sighed. She smiled and said, "I'm her aunt. Her mother and I are sisters."
Shen Lang understood and said, "No wonder. She must come here often, otherwise the waiter wouldn't recognize her."
Su Muqing said apologetically, "Shen Lang, I'm so sorry. I didn't expect Zihan to do such a thing."
Shen Lang said, "We can't say that before we find out the truth."
Su Muqing said, "This matter is almost certainly true, but I'd like to know how you two became enemies."
Shen Lang smiled wryly and recounted what had happened. Su Muqing took a while to recover, then said, "Shen Lang, I think she's probably behind this. I know this child; she's always been petty, vengeful, and always seeks revenge. Even I've been tricked by her. She's grown up these past few years, and I haven't heard of her causing trouble for a long time, but this time she's gone even further. I guess my sister and brother-in-law have spoiled her rotten. You know how only children are these days—you can't discipline them, they're all so arrogant. Shen Lang, let's go, let's go to her house now. Trust me, I'll resolve this matter satisfactorily."
Shen Lang looked at her... After a moment's thought, he said, "Muqing, it's already past 10 o'clock. Isn't it too late? Perhaps... we can go tomorrow. It doesn't seem right to bother them this late."
Su Muqing disagreed, saying, "How can that be! Things can go wrong if this kid gets carried away and posts the video online. Yueniang and you will both be ruined! Yueniang and you are my best friends; I absolutely cannot let that happen." Shen Lang, somewhat moved, said, "Alright then, let's go now."
Downstairs, Su Muqing gave the lobby manager a few instructions and then hurriedly left the restaurant with Shen Lang.
In the parking lot,
Su Muqing said, "You drove? Should we take mine or yours? Driving two cars doesn't seem very environmentally friendly."
Shen Lang shrugged and laughed, "I don't care, whatever you say!"
Su Muqing laughed, "Then take yours. I'm so tired and angry; I don't want to drive."
"Wow, that's a great reason!"
Shen Lang wiped his sweat. If you don't want to drive, just let me drive! Can't I drive your car?
The car shot onto the street like an arrow, quickly merging into the traffic like a cunning fish, overtaking other vehicles with ease without violating traffic rules. Su Muqing praised, "Shen Lang, your driving skills are impressive." Shen Lang whispered
, "Shh, keep it down, keep it down. I'm driving without a license."
"What?"
Su Muqing almost fell off her seat, staring at Shen Lang with the look of someone staring at an alien, somewhat incredulous. "You drive so well, how come you don't have a license? You're kidding, right?" Shen Lang
smiled sheepishly and said, "I used to be poor, I didn't have money, I was busy making ends meet every day, so I didn't have the chance to go to driving school. But in this society, driving schools are all in cahoots with the traffic management department. If you don't go to driving school, they won't let you take the test. I didn't have the money to waste, so... I got a few fake licenses and used them in rotation. Later, I had more money and plenty of time, but I was too lazy to get a license. Anyway, nothing's happened so far."
Su Muqing broke out in a cold sweat, shaking her head with a wry smile, and joked, "Sigh, I'm really impressed. " "Okay, but... are you a safe driver? I'm terrified of dying." Shen Lang laughed
loudly, "How could I not be safe? Although I'm not afraid of dying, I'm afraid that after I die, all my wives will be bullied." Su Muqing laughed loudly, her body shaking with laughter, and said, "Get lost, you were just being serious for a moment and you're being indecent again."
Shen Lang said, "What's wrong with that? The great scholar Zheng Banqiao said, 'Others laugh at me for being too crazy, I laugh at them for not seeing through things.' Being serious or not is just a matter of a thought. Aren't you tired of being so serious every day?"
Su Muqing shouted, "You idiot, did Zheng Banqiao say that? It was clearly Tang Yin, Tang Bohu!"
Shen Lang scratched his head in surprise and said embarrassedly, "Tang Bohu? Is that right? Is it really Tang Bohu?"
"Of course!"
Su Muqing felt a little weak. This guy didn't even know the author, yet he dared to quote randomly.
"Never mind, they're pretty much the same anyway."
"What do you mean 'pretty much the same'?
They're worlds apart!" "Where are they worlds apart? They're both from ancient times!"
"Ugh!"
Su Muqing was speechless. They're both from ancient times, and that's considered pretty much the same?
"Actually, they're not that different. First, they're both from ancient times; second, they're both scholars; third, they're both talented but unsuccessful; fourth, they're both a bit unconventional and unrestrained, just like me!"
Su Muqing found it amusing and couldn't help but spit out, "Pah, you're quite shameless!"
Shen Lang said seriously, "How can that be called shameless? Haven't you heard people say that excessive humility equals arrogance? I don't want to be an arrogant person, so I don't dare to be so self-deprecating. I always try my best to clearly tell others about my strengths and advantages."
"Ugh again!"
Su Muqing shook her head with a wry smile. She guessed that Yue Niang had been fooled by him like this. This guy's unreasonable and irrational manner was quite interesting, and being with him would definitely not be boring.
At least, the anger she felt earlier because of Zhang Zihan had been successfully dissipated.
Looking at Shen Lang's face from the side, Su Muqing suddenly found him more and more pleasing to the eye. Her heart skipped a beat, and her face flushed slightly. Perhaps, just as he said, he really was a carefree and unrestrained person.

Chapter 280 Gossip Sister
Suddenly, Shen Lang suggested, "Muqing, why don't you make a call first? It wouldn't be good if they were already asleep when we got there." Su Muqing hesitated for a moment, then thought it made sense, and dialed her sister's number.
Su Muqing: "Hello, sister, this is Muqing."
"Xiaoqing? Why are you calling now?"
The voice on the other end was that of a young woman, who sounded very young, probably no more than 35 years old.
"I wanted to ask, are you asleep yet?"
"Not yet, your brother-in-law and I are watching TV in the living room. What's up? Is something the matter?"
"Is Zihan home? I need to confirm something with her."
"She's upstairs. Are you coming now?"
"Yes, we'll be there in about half an hour." "You? Who are you coming with?"
"With a friend."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
"Okay, I got it, see you later!"...
Su Muqing let out a breath and said, "Alright, now that everything's confirmed, you can focus on driving... Hey, turn left at the next intersection."
Shen Lang chuckled as if talking to himself, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to just rush over like this? It's like we're going to complain about someone, I've never done anything like that before."
Su Muqing said dismissively, "What's wrong with it? You know, Zihan has always been a handful, getting into arguments and fights is commonplace. Later, she started forming cliques, and over the years, other parents have come to our door countless times. So, one more time won't make a difference. Besides, this time it's really serious. If we don't give her a good talking-to, she'll probably become even more unruly." "Lawless!"
Shen Lang realized, so this was the kind of lawless girl she was. He said, "Oh, I see. Then I'm relieved. But it's best to talk things out properly after a while. If we push her too far and she ends up causing a fight, then Yue Niang and I will... you know the consequences! Kids these days, one word—rebellious!"
Su Muqing: "That's two words, okay?"
Shen Lang: "Oh, I see... I'm sorry, I wasn't good at math when I was little..."
Su Muqing: "Get lost, you're talking nonsense again."
Shen Lang: "No way! I'm very serious. I never lie. I didn't know one plus one equals two until the third grade of elementary school..."
Su Muqing: "..." ...
Half an hour passed in a flash. Under Su Muqing's guidance, the car finally arrived at Zhang Zihan's house. It was a very impressive three-story villa, which could actually be classified as a villa. The large garden was lush and green, with flowers blooming everywhere. Under the landscape lighting, it looked luxurious and wealthy, something that ordinary people couldn't afford.
Shen Lang asked, somewhat puzzled, "Mu Qing, what does her family do? This house is quite grand!"
Su Mu Qing chuckled, "Don't ask such an old-fashioned question, okay? Do you even need to think about it? These days, people living in villas and mansions are either rich or powerful, either officials or businessmen, and her family has both. My sister is in politics, and my brother-in-law is in business. If you wrote about their family's story, it would be a whole 'Official's Path to Business'." Shen Lang broke out in a cold sweat and muttered, "You read online novels too?"
Su Mu Qing replied, "These days, anyone who doesn't read online novels is either a so-called moral guardian or illiterate. Which one do you think I am?
" Lang shook his head and laughed, "None of them, hehe."
Su Muqing said, "Let's go inside. If you're too embarrassed to complain later, just give this task to me! But don't worry, my sister and brother-in-law are sensible people. They may spoil their daughter, but they won't favor her."
Shen Lang shrugged, smiled, and remained noncommittal. He thought to himself, even if they favor her, it doesn't matter. Anyway, they've already found her house. At most, they can sneak over in the middle of the night to "take" the things back from the computer. It's just that this problem student, Zhang Zihan, is really infuriating. He won't be satisfied without teaching her a little lesson. "Ding-dong—ding-dong—"
Su Muqing rang the doorbell, and someone quickly opened the door. It was a middle-aged woman, around fifty years old, with a kind and amiable appearance. Upon seeing Su Muqing, she said warmly, "Oh, it's Miss Muqing! Please...please come in! It's been a while since you've been here!"
Su Muqing smiled and said, "Yes, it's been a long time. Aunt Zhang, how have you been lately?"
Aunt Zhang smiled broadly and said, "Thanks to Miss Muqing, everything is fine! And this gentleman is..."
Aunt Zhang, though old, was still quite gossipy, her tone clearly carrying a hint of gossip, which made Su Muqing's expression become a little uneasy.
Su Muqing smiled and said, "Aunt Zhang, this is Shen Lang, my friend! Shen Lang, this is Aunt Zhang, she's been working as a nanny at my sister's house for over ten years." Shen Lang quickly greeted her and flattered her, "Hello, Aunt Zhang, so you've been working as a nanny here since you were in your twenties!"
Both Aunt Zhang and Su Muqing were a little surprised, looking puzzled.
Shen Lang said seriously, "Zhang Ma looks to be at most forty years old now. She's been a nanny for over ten years, so she must have been in her twenties at the beginning, right?"
Su Muqing immediately frowned, saying, "Shen Lang, what nonsense are you talking about? Zhang Ma is fifty-four years old this year."
Shen Lang looked surprised, saying, "Really? That's too exaggerated!"
Su Muqing said, "You're the one exaggerating!"
Zhang Ma was very happy, her face beaming with smiles, saying, "Young man, you really know how to talk!"
Shen Lang put on an honest and simple look, saying, "Zhang Ma, you flatter me. I don't have many other merits, but I love to tell the truth, hehe!"
Su Muqing simply turned her head away; coming with him was a mistake, too embarrassing!
Zhang Ma looked at Shen Lang, even more convinced that he was Su Muqing's boyfriend. He was tall and handsome, looked very good, and the two looked very well-matched. Her smile widened, saying, "Mr. Shen, please come in, please come in. Now Madam can finally rest assured!"
What? What is my sister reassured about? Rest assured about my life's most important matter? Su Muqing sadly realized that Zhang Ma had completely misunderstood, but she had no way to explain. She was so anxious she wanted to knock Shen Lang down and beat him up. Entering the living room, Zhang Ma announced loudly as if reporting some good news, "Sir, Madam, Miss Su and Mr. Shen have arrived!"
A couple in their forties stood up from the sofa. The man indeed had the shrewd and capable look of a businessman; he was presumably Su Muqing's brother-in-law. The woman was neat and efficient, with a beautiful face, and her features vaguely resembled Su Muqing's. Su Muqing went to greet them, "Sister, brother-in-law, let me introduce you. This is Shen Lang, my good friend. Shen Lang, this is my sister Su Mushuang, and brother-in-law Zhang Qionglin."
Shen Lang hurriedly greeted them, his expression somewhat respectful, which inevitably led to another misunderstanding by the Zhang couple.
Su Mushuang and Zhang Qionglin, unaware of the couple's purpose, could only greet them warmly for now.
Looking at Su Muqing and Shen Lang, Su Mushuang felt a little suspicious. She thought to herself, "These two seem like a good match, but women usually look younger while men look older. They look about the same age, which means the woman is at least four or five years older than the man. No, I have to ask!
" Su Mushuang said, "Muqing, come here and help your sister make some tea in the kitchen." Su Muqing, unsuspecting, agreed and said, "Brother-in-law, you chat with Shen Lang first, I'll go help my sister."
Su Muqing went over, and Shen Lang, feeling awkward about directly complaining about the girl's daughter, could only chat idly with Zhang Qionglin. Fortunately, he was quite knowledgeable and got along well with Zhang Qionglin. ...
"Muqing, how old is that boy?"
Su Mushuang asked abruptly.
Su Muqing was a little confused by the question and said, "Why are you asking this?"
Su Mushuang replied, "Why? Of course, I'm here to help you choose! He looks so much younger than you. What, are you going to have a relationship with a younger man?"
"Oh, sister, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't be so gossipy! We're just good friends, nothing like what you're imagining. Besides, I'm so much older than him, how could that be possible!"
For the first time, Su Muqing felt a little embarrassed. This sister was too gossipy. She couldn't understand how she could be so successful in the municipal government and even become the director of the mayor's office!
"I understand, you two aren't at the point of discussing marriage yet. But, you know, many relationships start as good friends or brother-sister relationships. A younger age isn't a problem, the key is that he seems very nice. Tell me, how did you two meet?"
Su Mushuang was impatient, seemingly more eager than she was to find a son-in-law herself.
Su Muqing felt she couldn't hold back any longer. It's true what they say, like attracts like; from the nanny to the mistress, they're both so gossipy!
"Sister, what exactly do you want?"
"What do I want? Of course, I want you to get married as soon as possible! You know, you're already thirty this year. When I was your age, Zihan was already several years older!"
Su Muqing said weakly, "Sister, can we not talk about this today?"
Su Mushuang said righteously, "No! Mom and Dad spoil you and indulge you, and they can't bear to force you, but I know they're more anxious than anyone else, they just don't want to pressure you. You're not interested yourself, if I don't hurry up, how will you get married? Tell me, how old is he?" "
I don't know!"
Su Muqing said truthfully.
"You don't know? How can you not know? How can you even date someone you don't know their age?"
Su Mushuang looked incredulous.
"Sister, I really don't know... ah... ptooey, who's dating him? He's my best friend's boyfriend!"
"Ah... I see, then..."
Su Mushuang showed a hint of disappointment, but that disappointment vanished in an instant, and she said something incredibly outrageous that almost made Su Muqing faint.
"It's a bit underhanded to steal a man from your best friend, but you can't force feelings. Back in the day, didn't I steal my best friend's boyfriend too? So many years have passed, and my best friend and I are still good friends. She has a bunch of kids now!"

Chapter 281 Running Away from Home
Su Muqing's face darkened. She went over and hugged Su Mushuang, saying weakly, "Sister, please spare me, okay?"
Su Mushuang's stance did not waver in the slightest: "No! If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I won't let you leave. Tell me, what does that kid do?"
"Temporarily... unemployed!"
Su Muqing still told the truth, but she didn't mention that the guy was taking the college entrance exam. For some reason, Su Muqing suddenly felt a little embarrassed to say it, as if she really had some connection with him.
"So he doesn't have a job?"
Su Mushuang said with a hint of disappointment, almost to herself. "Actually, I don't think not having a job is a big deal. Life isn't always smooth sailing; it's inevitable to experience temporary setbacks. Back when your brother-in-law's business was struggling, I was there to help him through it all!
Men need encouragement too. Most people like to add to someone's success, but fewer are willing to help in times of need. That's when you need to show him even more care!"
"Oh, right, how about this? Your brother-in-law's company is so big, arranging a few people shouldn't be a problem. I had a good impression of that kid at first sight, I really like him, he'll definitely live up to expectations! Muqing, you'd better seize this opportunity." He looked so righteous? Forget it, although he's not exactly a bad guy, I really can't see where the righteousness is. But Su Muqing had already decided to compromise for now, otherwise her female Tang Monk sister would probably keep interrogating her!
"Okay, okay, I'll seize the opportunity, alright?"
Seeing her sister agree, Su Mushuang was very happy and smiled, "That's right! Seize the day, for opportunities don't come again, once this village is gone, there won't be another." "You need to adjust your mindset first. Don't give him attitude just because you're richer than him. Relationships between men and women are about equality and trust. Since you like him, you need to fulfill your duties as a girlfriend. Don't be petty or domineering..."
Su Mushuang launched into another long-winded explanation, leaving Su Muqing almost bewildered. She pleaded, "Sister, my dear sister, you're so long-winded! Can we talk about serious matters first? Shen Lang and I have something very important to tell you!"
Su Mushuang finally listened and said, "What is it? Is it about officialdom or business? We're all family. As long as it's not something that violates our principles, your brother-in-law and I will try our best to help you." Su Muqing shook her head and said, "It's not about officialdom, nor is it about business, but... Zihan's matter."
"What? Zihan's matter?"
Su Mushuang was shocked, her mind reeling. "How did Zihan get involved?" "...
After hearing Su Muqing's description of the whole incident, Su Mushuang and Zhang Qionglin were stunned. Based on the information they had, the evidence was almost conclusive; their daughter had actually done something so terrible.
This kind of thing can be serious or minor. At worst, it could constitute extortion; at the very least, it involves a matter of personal morality.
Su Mushuang was so angry she could barely speak, repeatedly apologizing: 'Shen Lang, I...I'm so sorry. I never expected my Zihan to be so...insensible. I'll call her down right now. If she really did it, I definitely won't protect her.'
Zhang Qionglin also said, 'This is no small matter. If it really caused any substantial consequences for Shen Lang, we will definitely take responsibility.'" Shen Lang was a little embarrassed and said, "
Sister, brother-in-law, I didn't come here to interrogate you. Actually, I just want to get that video back. It's understandable that a child doesn't know any better. I personally don't care, but I don't want to cause any unnecessary serious consequences for Teacher Qin. She's a university lecturer, and if the video gets out, the consequences will be very serious." Su Mushuang said gratefully, "Shen Lang, thank you for your tolerance and generosity. I'll ask her to come down and explain things clearly. Zhang Ma, go and call Zihan down."
Zhang Ma agreed and went upstairs to call Zhang Zihan.
After a while, Zhang Zihan's voice floated down from upstairs: "Mom, what do you want? I'm busy here!"
Su Mushuang said sternly, "You come down right now!"
After a while, Zhang Zihan came downstairs wearing a camisole nightgown, muttering.
"What is it? You made me not even finish my B!" Before she could finish speaking ,
Zhang Zihan suddenly saw Shen Lang sitting there and almost popped her eyes out. A surge of anger welled up inside her, and she yelled, "You big bad guy, what are you doing in my house? You're not welcome here, get out of here!"
Shen Lang didn't speak, but he felt a little resentful. He'd rarely been insulted like this, but he couldn't retaliate, which was incredibly frustrating. Su Mushuang was even angrier, shouting sharply, "Zhang Zihan, shut up! You have no manners!"
Zhang Zihan said aggrievedly, "Mom, why are you siding with an outsider? Do you know how he bullies people? He's a complete scoundrel!"
Su Mushuang interrupted Zhang Zihan, "Why would he bully you for no reason? Why doesn't he bully me? You must have been in the wrong first!" Su
Mushuang's words made Shen Lang break out in a cold sweat. Bully you? How would she bully you? For some reason, he started thinking the opposite, and his face flushed red. Unexpectedly, Su Muqing saw this and, thinking Shen Lang was angry, pinched his hand: "Shen Lang, don't be angry. She's just a child, that's how she is."
Shen Lang broke out in a cold sweat. Well, so be it. Anyway, the truth couldn't be revealed.
Zhang Zihan was so wronged that tears streamed down her face, sobbing, "Su Mushuang, are you still my mother? Helping outsiders bully your own daughter!"
Su Mushuang didn't react when her daughter called her name, only arguing her case. She was probably used to being called by name.
"Mom is on the side of reason, not family. Even if you had a falling out before, today is different. Everyone here is a guest. How can you be so rude?"
Zhang Qionglin also chimed in, "Daughter, Dad has a question for you. You have to answer honestly, otherwise Dad can't help you. Tell Dad honestly, did you... you know... her?" "
... her?" Zhang
Zihan suddenly felt guilty. She had indeed committed adultery, but how did they know? She clearly hadn't distributed it.
Wait, could it be that the hacker from yesterday... or did that hacker do something?
But she hadn't caused any consequences... How could she explain it? It was impossible to explain! If she said the video was stolen, would they believe her? No, adults are always so self-righteous, they definitely wouldn't believe her!
"Yes, I committed adultery, so what!"
Zhang Zihan steeled herself and admitted to her adultery.
"Is it really you?"
Su Mushuang's heart sank. Although she had previously held onto a sliver of hope that it was a misunderstanding, now that her daughter had admitted it, Su Mushuang couldn't help but feel a sudden disappointment. Why would her daughter do such a thing? Zhang Qionglin
's face also showed disappointment. He comforted her, "Daughter, making a mistake isn't scary, what's scary is knowing you're wrong and not doing it. As long as you hand over the video, Dad promises to talk to Shen Lang properly. Before serious consequences occur, things can still be salvaged. Actually, Shen Lang didn't mean anything by it, he just wanted you to hand over the video. He won't do anything to you." "Zhang Zihan sneered, "Nothing will happen? You believe that? He embarrassed me in front of so many people before. You know, I'm a girl! He's a complete scoundrel. You believing him is like asking a tiger for its skin!"
Su Mushuang was furious and shouted, "Zhang Zihan, shut up! Apologize to Shen Lang right now!"
Tears streamed down Zhang Zihan's face as she said, "Don't even think about it! I'd rather die than apologize to him!"
Su Muqing also tried to persuade her, "Zihan, hand over the video. Hand it over, and I promise this matter can be wiped clean, as if nothing ever happened!"
"Hand it over? Impossible!"
Zhang Zihan shouted, "I'd rather die than hand it over, Shen Lang, you bastard, just wait until you're ruined!"
*Slap!* Su
Mushuang could no longer contain herself and slapped her daughter across the face. Five finger marks immediately appeared on Zhang Zihan's cheek, slowly swelling up. Su Mushuang immediately regretted slapping her daughter, her mind reeling. She had never laid a finger on her daughter before; what was wrong with her today?
Zhang Zihan was also stunned. She hadn't expected her mother to hit her. The burning pain on her face was secondary; the real shock and hurt came from the fact that her mother had hit her for a stranger!
The living room fell silent. Shen Lang was also a little embarrassed; things had gotten to this point quite unexpectedly. Shen Lang grabbed Su Muqing's hand, but Su Muqing shook her head, a helpless expression on her face.
"Wah—"
Zhang Zihan ran out crying.
Su Muqing hurriedly chased after her, but Su Mushuang said, "Muqing, don't worry about her, let her calm down!"
Just then, the nanny, Zhang Ma, rushed in to report, "Sir, Madam, something terrible has happened! Miss has driven off!"
Driven? Everyone panicked a little. Driving while so emotional could easily cause an accident.
Zhang Qionglin said, "I'll go and bring her back."
Su Mushuang said, "At your driving speed, I can drive faster than you on a bicycle!"
Zhang Qionglin blushed and fell silent, guessing that Su Mushuang was telling the truth.
Shen Lang felt it wasn't appropriate for him to stay any longer and said, "I'll go. I'm so sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out like this."
With that, Shen Lang hurriedly left.
Su Mushuang said with some concern, "Muqing, Shen Lang, he..."
Su Muqing comforted her, "Sister, don't worry, Shen Lang is a very good driver. I believe he will definitely win Zihan back."
Zhang Qionglin sighed and sat on the sofa without saying a word.
Su Mushuang started crying, hugging Su Muqing and saying, "Muqing, I actually hit her! Will she hate me?"
Su Muqing said, "Sister, to tell you the truth, please don't be angry."
Su Mushuang said, "Go ahead and tell me, I'm not angry."
Su Muqing said, "Sister, brother-in-law, think about it. From childhood to adulthood, you've never laid a finger on Zihan. Before, when other students' parents came to our house, you would at most pay compensation and say a few words to her. This made her think that no matter how big the problem, it could be solved as long as money was paid. That's why she became more and more lawless and eventually became unmanageable. Fortunately, this matter hasn't gotten any worse, and there's still room for maneuver. We should be glad that this slap was the right thing to do. If it can wake Zihan up, then this slap will have been worth it."
Su Mushuang and Zhang Qionglin fell silent, lost in thought.

Chapter 282 The Carrying Master
Shen Lang ran outside the house, only to be grabbed by Zhang Ma. Zhang Ma said nervously, "Mr. Shen, Xiao... Xiao Han drives so fast... She... You want to..."
Zhang Ma was so nervous she couldn't speak. Shen Lang grabbed Zhang Ma's shoulders and comforted her, "Zhang Ma, it's okay, don't worry, I will definitely bring her back. What kind of car does she drive? Do you remember the number?"
Zhang Ma calmed down a bit and said, "She drove a silver Ferrari sports car, the license plate number is xxxxxx, and she went south, probably towards the ancient road entrance. I remember she told me before that she always liked to go there to race when she was unhappy, and she told me not to tell Mr. and Mrs. Shen. Mr. Shen, you must bring Miss Han back."
Shen Lang said, "Zhang Ma, don't worry, I will definitely bring her back!"
At this moment, Su Muqing chased out of the house. Before she could even stand up, she heard Shen Lang say to her, "Muqing, come with me!"
"Me?"
Su Muqing didn't react. “Yeah, otherwise I can’t drive two cars, can I?”
Shen Yunzhong said with a bit of a laugh.
“Oh…”
Su Muqing blushed, finally understanding what Shen Lang meant. If they caught up with Zhang Zihan, Zhang Zihan definitely wouldn’t drive back obediently; they would need another person to drive.
“Okay, sure!”
Su Muqing agreed.
Su Muqing had a lot of confidence in Shen Lang, because she had already witnessed his driving skills on the way here. She was just worried that Zhang Zihan was still angry and wouldn’t be able to persuade him.
The Zhang couple also came out, but they didn’t say anything, just looked at Shen Lang expectantly.
Su Muqing said, “Sister, brother-in-law, don’t worry, Shen Lang drives very well!”
Whether Su Muqing was comforting them or stating the truth, the Zhang couple finally felt a little relieved.
The Mercedes started, the engine roared, and with a beautiful drift, it entered the road and shot forward. Shen Lang sharply turned the steering wheel. The roads in this residential area were winding and twisting, probably designed to create a secluded and secluded feeling, which severely limited Shen Lang’s speed.
Three minutes later, the car finally drove out of the residential area and onto the main road.
Shen Lang suddenly said out of the blue, "Muqing, get your wallet ready!"
Su Muqing was confused and asked, "What wallet?"
Shen Lang shrugged and said, "To pay the fine. If you don't want to pay, I won't run the red light." Su Muqing understood and was naturally unwilling: "It's just a few dollars! Pay, of course we have to pay, otherwise that little girl will be in trouble at Gudaokou. That place is too dangerous."
Shen Lang said with surprise, "How do you know about Gudaokou?"
Su Muqing casually replied, "Nothing much, just heard of it. You'd better drive carefully."
Shen Lang said "Oh," and then said, "Then fasten your seatbelt, I'm going to speed up." Su Muqing agreed and immediately fastened her seatbelt.
"Vroom... Vroom..."
Shen Lang slammed on the accelerator, and the engine roared to life. The car shot forward like an arrow, the immense inertia pressing Su Muqing tightly against the seat back. The beautiful woman screamed in terror, "Hey, hey, help!"
"Help my ass! Who's trying to kill you?"
Shen Lang joked. Su Muqing yelled, "How can you still be joking? I can't take it anymore, I feel like throwing up! Slow down!"
The car's speed didn't decrease but increased. Shen Lang said, "How can I catch up with your crazy niece if I slow down?"
"Uh..."
Su Muqing fell silent, her eyes closed in fear. One hand gripped the door handle, while the other clutched Shen Lang's clothes.
Grabbing his clothes wasn't the problem; she was gripping his skin, and gripping it so tightly. "Hey, it hurts! Let go of me!"
Shen Lang yelled.
"No, no, I won't let go, even if it kills me!"
Su Muqing's voice was practically a shout.
Helpless, Shen Lang could only endure the sharp pain in his lower back and concentrate on driving.
He quickly turned an intersection and entered Zixu Road. After driving a few steps, Shen Lang suddenly saw a long line of cars stopped in the middle of the road ahead. "
Damn it, no way, traffic jams at this hour?" Shen Lang muttered, somewhat annoyed. "It's almost midnight, why are there still so many cars?"
The cars in front slowly came to a stop, and Shen Lang couldn't overtake. There was a guardrail in the middle of the road, and flowerbeds on the side; there was no way to get through!
Shen Lang slammed on the brakes, stopping just a meter away from the car in front.
As soon as the car stopped, a long line of cars quickly stopped behind him, making it impossible to reverse and find a way around. Frustrated,
Shen Lang slammed his fist on the steering wheel and said to Su Muqing, "I'll go see what's going on." Su Muqing agreed, looking at the long line of cars ahead with concern, feeling a little conflicted herself; this traffic jam couldn't have come at such an inopportune time.
A moment later, Shen Lang returned, smiling wryly. "There was a car accident up ahead. The culprit is a Ferrari, probably your wild niece. She forced her way past, causing a car to crash into the guardrail. Several meters of the guardrail collapsed, and the cars behind couldn't brake in time, resulting in a multi-car pileup and blocking the entire road!" Su Muqing asked
anxiously, "What do we do?" Shen
Lang glanced at the long line of cars ahead. This was a busy downtown area, and in just a few minutes, the queue had grown to over 100 meters long. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sit tight!"
Su Muqing asked, "What are you doing?" Shen Lang
said impatiently, "Carry the car over!"
"Carry it over?"
Su Muqing almost fainted. Was he kidding?
But before she could react, she saw Shen Lang lift the car, weighing over two tons, off the ground. Su Muqing felt dizzy and immediately screamed. The next moment, the car was above Shen Lang's head, and he strode through the sea of cars!
"Ah—"
"Oh—"
"Wow—"
After a long silence, gasps and screams erupted all around. Many people quickly pulled out their cameras or phones to take pictures, flashes going off everywhere, as if a superstar had arrived.
Shen Lang buried his face behind the tires, so no one could see him. Let them take pictures.
The street quickly erupted in excitement. Someone shouted: "Wife, come out and see God! A superhuman carrying a car and running wildly!"
Su Muqing almost fainted in the car. She was dizzy and the flashes were making it hard for her to open her eyes. The superhuman under the car couldn't be seen, but Su Muqing inside was clearly visible. Under the dense flashes, Su Muqing's face was exposed. When she realized she had to hide, she sadly found herself firmly strapped in by the seatbelt. She could only quickly use her hands to brush her hair aside to shield her face. "
...Listeners, listeners, according to a tip from a user with the last four digits of their phone number 3838, a car accident occurred just two minutes ago near the intersection of Zixu Road and Wuyou Road, causing a traffic jam. Then, a miracle happened! A remarkable person was seen carrying his car at breakneck speed. According to the witness, this person is about 1.8 meters tall, dressed casually, and his face is obscured. However, there is a very beautiful woman in the car, presumably his girlfriend.
The witness has taken photos, saying he initially thought it was a scene from a Superman movie, but it turns out he really is a superhuman. Tomorrow morning's front page will confirm the veracity of this report.
On the road, your forever radio friend, welcome to continue reporting amazing people and events around you. Now, please listen to a nice song, the song is called..."
"Bang!"
The car was finally put on the ground. Su Muqing felt her heart, which had been in her throat, finally return to normal. Her blood seemed to have reversed; she finally experienced the feeling of being on the verge of death. Shen Lang restarted the car and sped away amidst the stunned silence of the onlookers.
"Honey, I want you to carry me like this too, or you're not allowed to touch me tonight—"
*Thump—*
A heavy sound as something fell to the ground. ...
Away from the traffic jam, Su Muqing patted her ample chest, still shaken, and said, "Shen Lang, are you Superman? You really scared me to death just now, without even asking me first."
Shen Lang chuckled, "Didn't I remind you to sit properly? But I'm not Superman, I'm just a man, hehe, beautiful lady, don't you admire me a lot? I don't mind having another female fan as beautiful as a fairy, so hurry up and repay me with your body." Su Muqing blushed and spat, "Pah, you're being indecent again! Just now I felt like you were a god, but as soon as you spoke, you immediately came back to reality, making me feel so disappointed!"
Shen Lang said, "I'm a god banished to the mortal realm, so flesh and blood, so down-to-earth." "Isn't she better than those cold-faced gentlemen at the South Heavenly Gate? There's definitely no romance in the bedroom."
Su Muqing giggled and said, "Stop being silly, hurry up and pursue our girl!"
Shen Lang pretended to be profound and said, "Muqing, you're mistaken. I'm not that kind of person. Your girl is so bold, I wouldn't dare to pursue her. Besides, I already have quite a few girlfriends, but if it were you..."
Su Muqing shouted indignantly, "Shen Lang, you're too... too shameless... Ah, help me, you bastard, slow down—"
Amid Su Muqing's shouts, Shen Lang drove his car at high speed, but unfortunately, he didn't see Zhang Zihan's Ferrari even after entering the ancient road entrance, which showed that the girl's speed was not slow either. Shen Lang stepped on the gas and rushed towards the starting point of the race. He checked the time; it was almost twelve o'clock. He guessed that the warm-up race would start at this time, and given Zhang Zihan's novice level and need to vent, she would probably join in. Because the warm-up race doesn't focus on results and has no entry requirements, its main appeal is its excitement. Many cars will start together, inevitably leading to bumps and collisions on the road – extremely dangerous, which is what Shen Lang is worried about.
Rounding a bend, a large expanse of light appeared in the distance – countless car headlights. Dozens of sports cars of various colors lined up behind the starting line, their engines roaring deafeningly. A blond-haired boy was holding a small flag, shouting something; it seemed they were about to start.
Su Muqing, with her sharp eyes, quickly spotted Zhang Zihan's car and screamed, "Shen Lang, hurry and chase after her! Zihan, Zihan! I see her!"
Shen Lang chuckled, "Your eyesight is pretty good. I didn't even see her, but you did."
Su Muqing blushed and said, "No, I saw her car! Hurry, hurry, chase after her!"
Shen Lang smiled wryly, "It's too late. Look, they've already set off!"
The blond-haired guy swung his arm sharply downwards, and dozens of colorful sports cars shot off like wild horses, accompanied by screams and whistles.
Shen Lang said, "Looks like we'll have to race with them too. Are you ready?"
"Ah—what?"
Before Su Muqing could even hear Shen Lang's words, he had already floored the accelerator, darting through the crowd like a white horse before the spectators blocked the way.
"Whoosh—"
A black Mercedes darted past them, leaving just enough space for one car to pass by, scaring the spectators half to death. The gust of wind it generated sent them tumbling about. After a chorus of curses, whistles and cheers erupted. That move was so cool, but no one wanted to experience it again.
Beauty can be deadly, and so can being too cool.
Less than two minutes into the race, dozens of sports cars had already spread out, roughly forming three groups.
Zhang Zihan's Ferrari was in the first group, with about seventeen or eighteen cars. The second group had about twenty cars, and the rest were in the third group. Shen Lang pushed his car to its maximum speed and quickly caught up with the tail of the third group.
Su Muqing stared at the surging traffic and the sparks flying everywhere, her eyes agape in terror. She screamed, "Shen Lang, what do we do? What about Zihan?"

Chapter 283 God Descends to Earth
Looking at Su Muqing's frantic and helpless state, Shen Lang suddenly found it somewhat amusing. He felt as if the roles had suddenly reversed. At this moment, he felt that this woman was no older than him at all, and had become a young girl in the prime of her life.
Perhaps none of us have truly grown up. Age doesn't define everything. At an unexpected time, in an unexpected place, in an unexpected scene, we can revert to childhood, becoming children again, expressing the purest and most natural emotions, like a child freely expressing joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and unrestrainedly pouring out our feelings and emotions.
Take Su Muqing, for example; her immense anxiety has instantly turned her from thirty to fifteen years old. Shen Lang
said coolly, "Beautiful lady, this isn't something you need to worry about!"
Shen Lang had already experienced racing once, so he was quite familiar with the route and not nervous. However, overtaking so many cars on the narrow mountain road would definitely take a considerable amount of time, and he was worried that Zhang Zihan might not be able to hold on until then and an accident might occur.
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Su Muqing almost cried out in distress: "You jerk, Shen Lang, can't you stop being so cool? I'm really worried about Zihan, she's not even 17 years old, running around in the middle of such a large group of desperate criminals, how can I not feel at ease..."
Shen Lang rolled his eyes at Su Muqing and said, "Then you can only pray for her. I'm not God, I can't just fly over there." Su Muqing glanced at Shen Lang and didn't say anything, but her expression was somewhat aggrieved, her eyes were red, she glared at Shen Lang fiercely, and then looked ahead again, but there were only a few Ferraris in the distance, but they were obviously not Zhang Zihan's. The first group had already turned countless corners.
The mountain road was very narrow, only slightly wider at the bends. Shen Lang didn't care about being shocking anymore, he could only use the same trick as before, using a hovering U-turn to overtake at the bend.
As they approached the bend, Su Muqing saw the car's speed increase instead of decrease, even threatening to plunge off the cliff. Terrified, she screamed, "Shen Lang, Shen Lang, slow down, slow down, turn—help—"
Su Muqing closed her eyes in fear, grabbing Shen Lang's arm and digging her long nails into it, drawing blood.
At that crucial moment, Shen Lang's inner energy surged wildly, relentlessly channeling into the car, enveloping it completely. When the car was less than three meters from the guardrail, it lifted its front end high like a motorcycle, instantly flying off the ground, covering more than ten meters, making a U-turn in mid-air, and landing steadily in front of another car. The car continued its forward momentum after landing, and Su Muqing's scream signaled her demise.
Feeling the car jolt violently, Su Muqing screamed again, slowly opening her eyes. She was astonished to see the car still steadily driving along the mountain road, her mouth agape in disbelief.
"Shen...Shen Lang, how...did you do that?"
Shen Lang remained cool: "Inertia!"
"Uh—"
Su Muqing almost choked. She thought he had some special ability, but it was just inertia!
"You don't need to work so hard. If we don't catch up with Zihan, I suspect we'll fall off the cliff." "You can go down if you're scared!"
"You...who said I'm scared? I'm not going down!"
"You can not go down, but don't pinch me until I bleed next time." Seeing the five or six-centimeter-long bloodstain on Shen Lang's arm, Su Muqing looked at her own fingers and her face flushed: "I...I'm sorry, it was really scary just now. Let me bandage it for you!" Bandage it?
There doesn't seem to be a first-aid kit in the car!
Su Muqing said angrily: "How could you do this? You don't even have a first-aid kit in the car. What if you get hurt?" Shen Lang
chuckled and remained silent. He was full of all-powerful true qi. What use was a first-aid kit? If even true qi couldn't handle it, a first-aid kit would be even more useless!
"Tch—"
Su Muqing ripped off the lace trim from the bottom of her skirt, making the already short skirt even shorter; sitting there, her panties were almost visible.
Su Muqing blushed, slightly bringing her legs together, and wrapped the lace trim around Shen Lang's arm, then tied it securely.
Seeing the change in the lace on his arm, Shen Lang couldn't help but laugh and cry, self-deprecatingly saying, "Not bad, quite pretty!"
However, his gaze kept drifting towards Su Muqing's beautiful legs as he spoke, unsure whether to say the lace trim or Su Muqing's beautiful legs were more attractive. Su Muqing quickly noticed Shen Lang's gaze and a blush crept onto her pretty face. She feigned a fierce expression and said, "Hey, you little pervert, watch where you're going!"
Shen Lang laughed and said, "Believe it or not, even if I were blindfolded, I could still drive perfectly well!"
Su Muqing teased, "Keep bragging, it's not like you're getting paid for it!"
Shen Lang chuckled and stopped talking, continuing to concentrate on driving, repeatedly performing near-suspended overtaking maneuvers. After the initial screams, Su Muqing quickly adapted. The screams continued, but they were no longer filled with fear; instead, they were filled with excitement and exhilaration.
Shen Lang sped past, leaving the cars he overtook in his dust, much to the dismay of those behind. Many were distracted by his incredible performance, and the consequences were dire: rear-end collisions, crashes into cliffs, and some even plunging off the cliffs. Fortunately, the guardrails were high enough to prevent any unfortunate cars from falling off. However, the curses grew increasingly frequent, along with cries of dismay at cars wrecked beyond recognition. A cacophony of praise and curses—"madman," "idol," "god"—was deafening. Some
in the convoy were likely familiar faces from Shen Lang's previous race against Zhao Ziyang, quickly recognizing him. Only a car that had achieved the "hanging mid-air god" status could pull off such a feat—a godlike maneuver, a godlike car, a godlike change of direction!
A hysterical voice quickly came through the public channel: "Brothers, our racing god is here! Ladies, come out and see the racing god! I, Little Sweetie, am temporarily acting as the commentator to report on the latest situation of the racing god! The racing god is currently in the middle of the third group. According to reliable intelligence, the racing god was the last to start, but in less than 10 minutes he has already successfully overtaken 18 cars... Ah—oh no, I crashed... Help!"
Although Little Sweetie was "dead," his pig-like screams had already been broadcast through the public channel, and the entire track instantly boiled over. Was the racing god who could fly and perform aerial maneuvers really here?
At this moment, many cars were no longer in such a hurry to move forward. What did the results matter? Seeing the racing god's performance was what mattered! So many cars took the initiative to choose a spacious spot to retreat to the side and wait for the racing god's arrival, which provided Shen Lang with a lot of convenience. The second "commentator's" voice rang out on the public channel: "Fellow drivers, the first commentator has been eliminated. Now, the backup commentator, Xiao Dingdang, will be reporting. The car that seems to be the racing god has successfully broken away from the third group and caught up with the tail of the second group. It's a Mercedes XX, but the racing god is going too fast, so we can't see his face clearly. However, we can see that there is a stunningly beautiful woman in the racing god's car. God, I'm about to be electrocuted!"
"Pshaw! How can you see a beautiful woman if you can't see the racing god?"
A chorus of boos rang out on the public channel. Little Dingdang: "Don't be angry, everyone! Actually, I was just guessing. Think about it, how could a god-like man like the Car God possibly date a trashy girl... God! Little Dingdang, who has already cultivated to a semi-immortal state, suddenly discovered a fatal fact: about half an hour ago, during the traffic jam caused by the accident near Zixu Road and Wuyou Road in the city, a god-like man actually carried the car out of the traffic jam! A friend sent me a photo as proof; my phone successfully captured the Car God's license plate number, and it matches perfectly! My god, it's truly a god descending to earth!"
"Whoosh—"
If it weren't for the radio program they'd just heard, everyone would have thought the second commentator was lying. As a result, even more cars stopped, eager to witness the racing god's prowess. However, they miscalculated; if they hadn't stopped, they could have seen Shen Lang's incredible mid-air spin. Unfortunately, they stopped, so Shen Lang no longer needed to perform the mid-air U-turn and could have simply driven past.
The second commentator excitedly exclaimed, "Comrades, don't stop! How can the racing god perform his mid-air U-turn if you stop?"
The car enthusiasts suddenly realized their mistake and started their cars again. This infuriated Shen Lang, who cursed loudly. He was utterly confused as to why everyone had stopped earlier and was now continuing. What was going on?
At this moment, Su Muqing slowly woke up and said, "Shen Lang, hurry up and turn on the public channel! If you shout on the channel, it means we're looking for someone, and maybe the cars in front will give way!"
Shen Lang asked, puzzled, "Public channel? What public channel?"
Su Muqing said, "It's FM xx.xx, the dedicated channel for racing. But it's temporary because every time there's a racing event, a special signal transceiver is set up nearby. As long as you have a microphone, you can communicate freely on the public channel without too many people talking and you might not be able to hear anything." With a half-believing, half-doubting look, Shen Lang tuned the car radio to xx.xx, just in time for the second commentator's words: "Comrades, don't stop! If you stop, how will the racing god perform the mid-air U-turn?"
Shen Lang was dumbfounded. When did he become a racing god? But now he hated that jinx. It turned out that guy was behind it all.
Shen Lang asked curiously, "How did you know about this public channel?"
Su Muqing replied somewhat flusteredly, "N-nothing, I just heard about it from someone. By the way, do you have a microphone here? Hurry up and plug it in so you can talk!"
Shen Lang said, "I have a microphone!"
Shen Lang plugged in the microphone and tried shouting, "Zhang Zihan, you stop right there!" It was
Shen Lang's first time experimenting, and he didn't realize the volume was too loud, almost rupturing many people's eardrums and attracting a lot of curses.
However, the public channel quickly quieted down, because there was probably going to be a good show. There was an unwritten rule on the public channel that "spam" was not allowed. After about four or five seconds of silence, Zhang Zihan's voice came through: "Are you that big jerk?"
Shen Lang was extremely annoyed, but still admitted, "It's me. You better stop right now. Your aunt is very worried about you. Come home with us!"
"Go home my ass, you big jerk! I wish I could smash you off a cliff!"
Zhang Zihan cursed as loudly as she could.
Shen Lang: "Zhang Zihan, listen to me! I'm only being nice to you now because I'm giving your aunt face. If you dare to curse me again, I'll beat your butt until it's bruised and battered when I catch up with you!"
Zhang Zihan immediately screamed: "You pervert, you bastard—if you want to spank me, come and catch up with me first!"
Shen Lang shouted: "Zhang Zihan, you said it yourself, don't regret it. I mean what I say! Listen up, cars in front, I am the so-called 'car god' you all talk about. Stop right now, or I'll kill you and leave you to your own devices!"
"Whoosh—"
Another uproar erupted on the public channel.
Zhang Zihan said angrily, "Pah! You're not allowed to tarnish my idol! If you're the God of Cars, then I'm the God of Cars' mother!"
Commentator #2: "Hey buddy, are you really the God of Cars?"
Shen Lang said irritably, "Believe it or not, if you don't want any damage to your car or your life, stop the car now!"
Commentator #2: "Did everyone hear that? Although we can't rule out the possibility that some guys are using this as an excuse to trick everyone into stopping, but... I'd rather believe that this person is the God of Cars. The God of Cars is here with his girlfriend to chase after her. Please give him some face!"
"Pah!"
Su Muqing couldn't help but spit upon hearing this, wishing she could kill that loose-lipped guy. What kind of talk is that? Bringing his girlfriend to chase after his girlfriend...
Zhang Zihan also cursed, "Go to hell, Doraemon! Who's his girlfriend? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll kill you! He's my enemy, my enemy, my mortal enemy! All cars behind, block him! If you can push him off the cliff, I'll treat everyone to a month of fun in heaven!"
"Wow—that's incredibly wealthy!"
A commotion erupted in the channel. Everyone felt their trip was worthwhile; not only had they encountered a racing legend, but they'd also witnessed this spectacle: an aunt and niece vying for a man—a once-in-a-lifetime drama!
"What's so great about living in heaven? If you'd all be so kind, I'm willing to accept a three-day challenge. I'll drive an Alto, and you can drive whatever you want—no challenge fee!"
"Wow—"
That's tempting! A racing legend accepting a challenge in an Alto, and without charging a fee—that's incredibly generous!
Zhang Zihan: "Shen Lang, you're ruthless! Come and chase me if you dare!"
Zhang Zihan accelerated again, successfully overtaking another car at a bend, almost crashing off the cliff herself. The guy she overtook was squeezed into the guardrail, his car's front end deformed. He was heartbroken and almost cried, cursing: "Crazy, crazy, both of you are crazy! Why are you dragging me into this while you're flirting? Oh, my beloved wife—"
Xiao Dingdang: "Comrades, did you hear that? So the racing god is called Shen Lang. Has anyone heard of him?"
"No, I'll search him on my phone." "Unfamiliar, I'll contact the racing encyclopedia!"
"No such person!"
"I remember now, at the premiere of Yi Xueman's movie 'Broken Bridge,' didn't Yi Xueman walk the red carpet with a handsome guy named Shen Lang?"
"Wow! Come on, how could a super handsome guy who can walk the red carpet with Yi Xueman possibly be here racing cars and picking up girls? Even if he were picking up girls, it would be someone like Yi Xueman, right?" "
..."
After listening for a while, Su Muqing, still a little confused, asked, "Shen Lang, you... are you the newly crowned racing god who defeated Zhao Ziyang?"
Shen Lang said, "It's true that I defeated Zhao Ziyang, but don't tease me with the term 'racing god'... How did you know?"
Su Muqing said weakly, "Last time... when you and Zhao Ziyang were carpooling, I drove here to clear my head. Unfortunately, I was too far away to see you. Actually... to be honest, I came here with Zihan last time."
Shen Lang was a little sweaty, finally understanding. No wonder she knew about public channels, so that's how it was.

Chapter 284 Suspected Teasing
Most cars stopped, but a few didn't. There was no need to stop; they were all ahead of Zhang Zihan, but they were also a little distracted. They wanted to turn back and see their idol's face, but didn't want to give up halfway. They were conflicted, but all slowed down. Su Muqing began to persuade Zhang Zihan: "Xiaohan, did you hear me?"
"Yes, so what?"
Zhang Zihan's tone seemed cold, surprising Su Muqing. Weren't they very close before?
"Xiaohan, stop! The road is so dangerous. What if something happens to you? Your parents will worry!"
Zhang Zihan's voice trembled with tears: "Worry? Will they worry about me? If they really worried about me, they wouldn't have hit their own daughter for a stranger! And you watched them hit me and just stood there by. You're one of their accomplices. You're all bad people. I'll never talk to you again!"
Su Muqing was immediately speechless. Whether from sadness or something else, a few tears welled up in her eyes. She whispered, "Shen Lang, I really don't know how to... comfort a child. Shen Lang, why don't you do it, okay?"
Shen Lang retorted loudly and uncooperatively, "You want me to comfort her? How could you even think of that? Do you think I'm a kindergarten teacher?"
"No..."
Su Muqing disagreed, still whispering, "To be precise, not auntie, but uncle!"
(Seriously!)
"You think highly of me! You're her aunt, and I'm her enemy. Do you think an enemy's persuasion will be more effective than an aunt's? If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to invite a few imperialist right-wingers to persuade her? At most, it's an internal conflict between us and the people, but imperialism is a clear-cut class conflict with us. Why don't you try it?"
Su Muqing was getting a little frantic. She grabbed Shen Lang's arm and bit him without saying a word. "Are you going to coax me or not? If you don't, I won't let go!"
Shen Lang winced in pain. "You're something else, biting someone while you talk." "Enough nonsense, just give me your opinion!"
"I'll do whatever you want. What method do you use and you won't interfere?"
Shen Lang asked cautiously. "Of course, the process isn't important, the result is. The only goal now is to get Zihan home safely. That's the primary concern; everything else is secondary!"
Shen Lang agreed. "Then it's settled. Feel free to leave your little devil niece to me! I'm best at dealing with kids who can't distinguish right from wrong, who are unwavering in their sense of good and evil, and who are arrogant and rebellious. First of all, you can't reason with these kinds of kids, because they're not people you can reason with. You have to learn from the experience of your predecessors." "What experience?"
Su Muqing asked curiously.
Shen Lang shook his head and said, "As the saying goes, 'Spare the rod and spoil the child.' After a good beating, no matter how arrogant or domineering she is, she'll definitely become obedient. Even a tyrant can turn into a lady."
"Haha...you're talking nonsense!"
Zhang Zihan couldn't stand it anymore and shouted, "You're talking nonsense! Are you guys doing a comedy routine? Shen Lang, you're shameless enough to instigate your aunt to beat me. Why don't you just die?"
A burst of laughter came from the public channel. They'd been hearing even more lewd stuff lately. Shen Lang let out a loud "Eee-yah!" and said in an exaggerated voice, "You want me to die? Why would I want to die? Did I really hit you or force myself on you? Why do you hate me so much?"
Su Muqing was a little dizzy. She gritted her teeth and bit Shen Lang's arm again, spitting, "Shen Lang, you talk so rudely. Be civilized and watch your words, okay? I'm still a child!"
Shen Lang said nonchalantly, "Biting people is civilized? That's a method used by working people in primitive society! Besides, what I, Old Shen, say may be vulgar, but the meaning is profound. Everyone ..." "Let's be reasonable! You can't say these things to a child, do you think it's okay to say them to you?"
Su Muqing blushed, too embarrassed to bite again, and smacked Shen Lang on the head with her delicate hand, spitting, "You naughty boy, you actually tried to take advantage of your older sister, do you want to lose your life!"
Zhang Zihan quickly retorted, "Force me? I'm afraid you don't have that ability! If you dare to force me, I'll kill you!"
Shen Yunzhong laughed loudly, "Kill me? Eek, that's scary! As the saying goes, even a night of marriage is worth a hundred days of kindness, don't you care about any marital affection?"
Marital affection? Bah! This shameless man! Zhang Zihan blushed, nearly bursting with anger, and cursed, "Shen Lang—you shameless rogue and bastard! You forced yourself on me, who said we were husband and wife? Can't you be any more shameless?"
Su Muqing echoed Zhang Zihan's words softly, "Shen Lang, can't you be any more shameless?"
"Whoa—"
Another uproar erupted on the public channel, followed by bursts of laughter. Everyone seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves, as if it were a couple flirting, or a comedy duo performing stand-up comedy, and it was even being broadcast live! Simultaneously, a thrilling racing competition was taking place, featuring a hot young woman and a mysterious new racing god, with the young woman's aunt also present, seemingly entangled with the racing god. Where could one find such a super entertainment program?
Without a second thought, Shen Lang slapped Su Muqing's almost completely naked legs and whispered, "Shut up, don't cause trouble!"
Su Muqing felt a burning sensation all over her body after being slapped on the thigh. Her face burned too, and she trembled involuntarily. She opened her mouth to curse, but somehow the words wouldn't come out. She lowered her head, seemingly deep in thought, but in reality, her mind was completely blank, devoid of any thought except for the burning sensation. The spot where she had been slapped was no more than 5 centimeters from her most private area…
Shen Yunzhong: "Forced marriage? Oh, right, it's forced marriage. But as Marx said, everything is constantly changing and developing. Perhaps at this moment you feel intense hatred or even loathing for me, but maybe at the next moment you'll fall in love with me!"
"Fall in love with you? You're dreaming! My dream lover is that tall, newly crowned racing god. Don't be delusional!"
"Oh, I see. You should have said so earlier. Now there's no problem. I'm the racing god! Stop now, I accept you, let's date!"
"You're talking nonsense! Trying to impersonate my racing god? No way!"
Zhang Zihan yelled, clearly disgusted by Shen Lang's impersonation. "Fine, don't believe me then. But even if you don't love me, maybe you'll need my help? Like if you suddenly fell off a cliff, I'm afraid no one but me could save you. But we're enemies, aren't we? So I can't just save you for nothing, right? That's why we have an exchange. Exchanges are all about fairness and mutual consent, each getting what they need. I save your life, you spend one night with me, that's not coercion, right?"
"Right my foot! You filthy scoundrel, I'd rather die than let you save me!"
Zhang Zihan cursed angrily.
"You think I'll just stop saving you because you tell me not to? If your aunt or your parents were crying and begging me to save you, would I refuse? How could someone as peace-loving and kind-hearted as me miss an opportunity to save lives? Besides, I have one flaw: I'm indifferent to fame and fortune, and I see money as dirt. I look down on status, fame, and all that stuff. When I introduce myself, I usually say, 'I am Shen Lang, male, and I like women.' Tell me, what reason would I have not to do something that can save lives and satisfy my own interests? I'm not stupid!"
Countless thumping sounds came from the public channel, probably from people stunned by Shen Lang's words.
Su Muqing, listening nearby, nearly fainted. She whispered a warning, "Shen Lang, don't go too far! The more I listen, the more it sounds like you're using this as an excuse to harass that young girl."
Shen Lang replied in a low voice, "What do you know? A serious patient needs strong medicine. Your gentle persuasion has no effect. We agreed to use any method, so don't mess with me! Didn't you see? After my sharp retort, I'm almost catching up with her! See?"
Su Muqing looked ahead and, under the headlights, a garbage truck appeared faintly in her field of vision, no more than 500 meters away. She couldn't help but feel secretly pleased; it really worked!
However, Su Muqing still said with some concern, "But... with so many people listening, can that young girl handle it? It seems quite a few people here know her. After you said that, how will she face people in the future? Won't everyone look down on her?"
Shen Lang said dismissively, "What do you know? I, Old Shen, am the God of Speed. It's her honor to be teased by the God of Speed. It's a sign of respect for her and also for your sake. If you weren't her aunt, I wouldn't bother with you!"
Su Muqing's face flushed again upon hearing this, a mixture of joy, shyness, and embarrassment. She couldn't help but scoff, "Tch, shameless!"
Shen Lang chuckled and continued speaking to Zhang Zihan, "By the way, Xiaohanhan, where were we? Right, we were talking about an exchange. Tell me, what kind of exchange is this?"
Zhang Zihan was so angry she almost turned around and bumped into Shen Lang, but remembering her aunt was still in the car, she could only suppress her anger. She floored the accelerator, screamed, and the car nearly flew off the road.
Shen Lang continued calmly, "You might call it a transaction, but the country doesn't allow that. Forced marriage? We've already ruled that out. Even legally, you're over 14, so it can't be called forced marriage. However, conventionally speaking, I'm unmarried, and you're unmarried, so this kind of thing between unmarried men and women is called premarital sex.
Since it's premarital sex, that makes things easier. It means we have the tendency and possibility of becoming husband and wife. What should two people who might become husband and wife call each other? That's right, engaged couple! That means you're my fiancée, and I'm your fiancé, we just haven't officially married yet!
After all that, we've finally gotten to this point. We're husband and wife, Xiao Hanhan. Tell me, how can you disregard our marital bond and try to kill me? Do you want to murder your husband?"
"Uh—"
Everyone who heard this grand pronouncement was stunned. Another group of people were knocked out. It seemed everyone's defenses were too low. Nonsense itself wasn't scary; what was scary was the destructive power of it.
Su Muqing stared blankly at Shen Lang, almost unable to resist admiring him. She had never seen anyone spout nonsense with such conviction. Su Muqing suddenly felt sorry for Zhang Zihan, who had encountered such a boss-level rogue!
Zhang Zihan was also speechless for a long time. Her mind was practically a complete mess. What he said seemed to make sense… Ugh, make sense my foot! But how did she become his fiancée? He must be talking nonsense, but why couldn't she refute it? Where exactly was the problem?
Suddenly, Zhang Zihan realized that this wasn't logic at all; it was pure flirting. Every single one of his words was baseless, a constant manipulation of concepts!
"Shen Lang, I'll fight you to the death!"
Just then, they spotted an open area, and Zhang Zihan turned the car around without hesitation, seemingly determined to fight Shen Lang. A guy not far from Zhang Zihan saw this and shouted, "Guys, it's bad! Miss Han has gone mad! She turned the car around! Looks like she's really going to fight!"
Everyone's hearts jumped. This was a serious mistake. On this mountain road, if someone really intended to crash the car... the chances of survival were slim.
Su Muqing, however, was terrified, helplessly pulling at Shen Lang, her eyes filled with fear.
Shen Lang didn't seem to care much. He patted Su Muqing's beautiful leg and said, "Everyone, stop the car! Let's avoid hurting innocent people. Let her run me over and murder her husband before it's too late!"
Su Muqing was disgusted to have her thigh touched again and jumped back in shock. But looking at Shen Lang's expression, he didn't seem to be deliberately taking advantage of her... What kind of person is he? Is he taking advantage of the situation or is he just oblivious? Is it okay to touch a girl's thigh like that? What a scoundrel!
Zhang Zihan's voice seemed to confirm Su Muqing's thoughts: "Shameless!"
Shen Lang said, "Come on, if you've got the guts, crash into it. Actually, falling off a cliff won't be that bad; at most, your body will be torn to pieces. Plus, you'll get free TV and newspaper coverage. If you're lucky enough to survive, you might even become a cliff-jumping expert. And if you do die, don't be sad, because your body can still serve its purpose. People will take pictures and gather around to educate future generations, teaching them to cherish life and stay away from cliffs. You'll become a flag bearer in the education field, and everyone will remember you! When you're sent for your burial, you'll receive special treatment, including needlework and thread..." "I'll sew your broken limbs and head back together stitch by stitch. Don't worry, those sewing experts are highly skilled; many are even skilled at jigsaw puzzles. Even if you're reduced to pieces, they'll successfully piece you back together… Oh, right, one last reminder: hitting me isn't a big deal, but it seems your aunt is still in my car. You need to think carefully; if you hit her, it could mean three lives. Actually, what grudge does your aunt have against you, is there? Can you really bear to do that?"
After a few seconds of silence, Zhang Zihan's voice rang out again: "I… then you should get my aunt out of the car first, and then we can hit her!"
"Uh—"
Shen Lang finally choked, "Miss Han, isn't this request going too far? I, Shen Lang, have never seen such an unreasonable request in my entire life!"
