Best Young Master

Chapter 103: Chapter 097: Lost in the East Corner, Gained in the West?

Compared to the complex adult world, the days of youth are always worth reminiscing about.

In that special period, within that campus brimming with youth, some students liked to compete in studies, some in family background, and some in being bad.

Here, ’bad’ could refer to being naughty and troublesome, rebellious, or causing trouble and strife.

For Su Jindi, currently attending Zijin Shan Noble Middle School, there were many who could outdo him in studies, but when it came to family background and ’bad’, there weren’t too many who could hold a candle to him.

Xie Kun barely counted as one of them.

As the saying goes, when one man achieves enlightenment, his pets ascend to heaven.

Because Xie Yin continuously sent her husband and father-in-law to Yama Palace through ’piston action,’ successfully inheriting the vast industry, her brother Xie Kun shot to the sky overnight, directly transitioning from the little brother-in-law of a second-generation rich to a first-generation rich.

This transformation allowed Xie Kun to live the life of a rich young master, residing in upscale noble districts, attending the best noble school, and driving a Koenigsegg worth tens of millions...

However—

This change, marked with the color of a nouveau riche legend, didn’t make Xie Kun the leader of the bad students at Zijin Shan Middle School, where rich young masters were a dime a dozen. On the contrary, because of his sister’s actions, he became one of the laughingstocks of Zijin Shan Noble Middle School’s prodigal circle.

This fact depressed Xie Kun for quite some time!

But... after getting over his depression, Xie Kun turned mockery into motivation. He not only spent a lot of time learning to street race, which the rich young masters favored, but also specifically went to learn combat.

Two years later, today, Xie Kun’s Kung Fu was barely entry-level, but his driving skills were quite impressive. He even joined the Shanghai-Hangzhou Super Car Club, often participating in underground racing competitions...

All of this changed the impression of many prodigal sons at Zijin Shan Noble Middle School about Xie Kun, but it only removed the title of laughingstock. He still could not become a core member of the prodigal circle.

In such a situation, after much thought, Xie Kun decided to challenge Su Jindi, known as the Demon Lord of Mayhem, in the field of street racing.

In Xie Kun’s view, Su Jindi was not only the number one prodigal son of Zijin Shan Noble Middle School but also had a far-reaching reputation in the Jiangnan prodigal circle. As long as he could defeat Su Jindi in street racing, he would naturally become famous and thereby become a well-known figure in both Zijin Shan Noble Middle School and the Hanghu snob circle.

Originally, Xie Kun was not sure if he could defeat Su Jindi, also a member of the Shanghai-Hangzhou Super Car Club, in street racing.

But since the start of this term, for some unknown reason, Su Jindi had changed his ways and started to study diligently. He hadn’t been to Yunshan to compete in underground racing for a long time.

As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. Similarly, skills become rusty without continuous use.

Although Xie Kun didn’t know the reason for Su Jindi’s change, he believed that Su Jindi, who hadn’t participated in underground racing for a long time, would definitely be out of form and even his driving skills would have declined.

With this thought in mind, Xie Kun mustered the courage to run to Su Jindi’s class, Grade 2 Class 8, and in front of all the classmates, he issued a challenge to Su Jindi.

Although Su Jindi had changed his behavior in order to compete for the opportunity to become the Su Family Patriarch, with the help of Ye Fan, his defiant nature hadn’t changed much—if Xie Kun challenged him in front of the whole class, he certainly couldn’t act like a coward!

Su Jindi’s acceptance of the challenge made Xie Kun extremely excited; he couldn’t wait to defeat Su Jindi in the street race.

Perhaps due to his strong desire for victory, Xie Kun didn’t go to school on the day of the race. Instead, he drove the Koenigsegg given to him by Xie Yin to a famous modified car workshop in the Yangtze River Delta in Donghai to have his beloved car checked.

He wouldn’t allow any issues with his car during tonight’s race!

When the sun was setting behind the mountains, the staff from the modified car workshop finished checking Xie Kun’s Koenigsegg. He drove back to Hanghu.

"Buzz... buzz..."

The car had just hit the highway when the vibration of the phone rang out. Xie Kun slowed down, fished out his phone, and was surprised to see a call from Xie Yin. He answered promptly, "Sister."

"Xiaokun, come to Jiuzhou International Hotel for dinner, I want to introduce you to an elder brother."

In a luxurious private room of the Jiuzhou International Hotel, Xie Yin, dressed in a black long dress, stood by the window talking on the phone with Xie Kun. Meanwhile, Lin Ao Feng was sitting at the main seat directly opposite the room.

"Sister, I have important things to do tonight; I won’t be coming over!"

Over the past year or two, Xie Yin had introduced every wealthy young master she met to Xie Kun. He was already accustomed to this and refused outright.

For him, tonight’s race would decide if he could rise above Su Jindi and become a prominent figure in both Zijin Shan Noble Middle School and the Hanghu snob circle. Why would he have any interest in going out to eat?

"What do you have?"

Last night, Xie Yin and Lin Ao Feng tumbled in the sheets for a night, both gaining unprecedented pleasure. She also learned about Lin Ao Feng’s identity.

It was precisely because of this that she went to such lengths to try to get Xie Kun to have dinner with Lin Ao Feng—if Lin Ao Feng could care for Xie Kun out of consideration for her, then even if Xie Kun was a useless scion, he could be propped up.

"Tonight, I’ve made an appointment with Su Jindi to race at Yunshan Racing Track." Xie Kun said impatiently, "And I just got on the Shanghai-Hangzhou Highway. Even if I hurry, it will be too late."

"Then forget it." Hearing this, Xie Yin could only drop the matter, planning to find another opportunity another day.

"What? Your brother has something on?" Noticing Xie Yin ending the call, Lin Ao Feng asked casually.

"Young Master Lin, I’m sorry, he has a car race arranged tonight, and he’s hurrying back from Donghai. He’s afraid he won’t make it. Let’s just eat, never mind him." Xie Yin walked towards Lin Ao Feng with a swaying waist and a smiling face, feeling slightly anxious inside.

It’s no exaggeration to say, with Lin Ao Feng’s identity as the Nanhua Crown Prince, the line of people wanting to invite him for a meal could stretch from the south to the north, and now, Lin Ao Feng had reluctantly agreed to dine with her and Xie Kun. But with Xie Kun’s absence, how could she not worry?

Upon hearing Xie Yin’s words, a flicker of displeasure passed through Lin Ao Feng’s eyes. However, considering the unprecedented pleasure he obtained from Xie Yin last night, and the fact that she was a former disciple of the Lan Hua Sect who knew the Dual Cultivation Technique, harnessing yin to nourish yang with an efficacy greater than that of a virgin, his irritation dissipated. He smiled and asked, "Is your brother racing at Yunshan?"

"Yeah."

Seeing that Lin Ao Feng wasn’t angry, Xie Yin’s heart settled, and she couldn’t help feeling proud of her bedroom skills. She nodded coquettishly and said, "Young Master Lin, if I remember correctly, the underground racing track at Yunshan is run by Nanqinghong, isn’t it?"

"Indeed," Lin Ao Feng nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "Since I’ve got nothing better to do, I’ll take you there tonight to check out how good your brother’s driving skills are."

"Thank you, Young Master Lin!"

At his words, Xie Yin’s face lit up with joy. As a well-known vixen of Hanghu, she knew very well that if a man was willing to take a woman out, particularly in front of his subordinates and friends, it was an acknowledgement of her status.

As if to confirm Xie Yin’s judgment, Lin Ao Feng pulled her into his embrace and pinched her Holy Maiden Summit, his tone leaving no room for doubt: "Remember, from last night on, you are my, Lin Ao Feng’s, woman, so there’s no need for you to thank me."

"Mhm."

Xie Yin nodded happily, overwhelmed with joy. Becoming Lin Ao Feng’s woman meant she no longer had to worry about the side effects of using the Forbidden Technique to harness yang to replenish yin, and it would turn her and her brother Xie Kun’s lives in a completely new direction — this was like a pie falling from the sky!

"Ye Fan, oh Ye Fan, you can’t even measure up in your dreams. Do you think this Miss would fancy you? I was only interested in your yang energy constitution, planning to absorb your yang energy. You. Your. Mother actually thought of yourself as a delicacy, aren’t you afraid you’ll laugh your teeth off?"

From the east corner lost, to the mulberry harvested.

As the image of Ye Fan’s cold rejection last night surfaced in her mind, Xie Yin sneered unceasingly.

At this moment, in her heart, Ye Fan wasn’t even fit to hold Lin Ao Feng’s shoes!

...

Ye Fan, however, was unaware of all these developments.

Just like usual, after getting off work, he and Su Yuxin returned to the Su Family’s No.2 Villa and had dinner with Mrs. Su and Su Yuxin. Afterward, he went back to his room to play League of Legends with Situ Ruoshui.

Ever since Ye Fan had rescued Situ Ruoshui from Qu Feng and the others, she had clung to him like sticky candy, insisting on playing League of Legends with him every time she logged on.

However... In order to avoid irritating her teammates from the Barbie Team and to prevent Ye Fan from becoming the center of controversy, she always played on a smurf account.

"Brother Ye Fan, when will you come to Donghai?"

After a game ended, Situ Ruoshui asked with anticipation, eager for his visit. If it weren’t for Situ Chen’s strict orders not to let her leave Donghai, she would have already made an excuse to visit Ye Fan in Hanghu.

Seeing the message displayed on the screen, Ye Fan was just about to respond when his phone vibrated. Picking it up, he saw that it was a call from Su Jindi.

"Brother Ye, I’m going to Yunshan to race tonight. Will you join me?" Once the call connected, Su Jindi’s voice came through, filled with anticipation for Ye Fan to join him.

"Didn’t your sister forbid you from going? Why are you still going?"

On hearing this, Ye Fan suddenly remembered how Su Jindi mentioned wanting to race with Xie Kun last night at dinner but was sternly prohibited by Su Yuxin.

"Brother Ye, since the start of this semester, I’ve devoted all my energy to studying and haven’t skipped classes or raced at all."

Su Jindi explained, "I had no choice this time—the idiot brother of that vixen Xie Yin challenged me. If I don’t show up, everyone will think I’m afraid to race with that idiot, and then I can’t hang out at school anymore."

Hearing this, Ye Fan also knew that Su Jindi’s veins pulsed with rebellious blood; suddenly turning into an obedient, study-focused kid was unrealistic.

"Brother Ye, come on, it’ll be fun." Su Jindi kept pressing for an answer, seeing that Ye Fan was silent.

"Where? What time?"

As far as Ye Fan was concerned, aside from treating Su Yuxin’s illness, he also wanted to experience and integrate into ordinary life. He had only heard about underground car racing but had never seen it, so he decided to go check it out.

"At Yunshan, nine o’clock tonight." Hearing Ye Fan asking for the place, Su Jindi realized he would be coming and excitedly said, "I’ll drive there to pick you up now!"

"No need, you go ahead. I’ll drive myself there."

Ye Fan, realizing that there were voices around Su Jindi, understood that Su Jindi was accompanied by several prodigal sons, and promptly refused Su Jindi’s offer to come pick him up.

After hanging up, Ye Fan first informed Situ Ruoshui that he had to go out, then changed his clothes, bid farewell to Su Yuxin, and drove out of the Jiuxi Rose Garden Noble District towards Yunshan.

Meanwhile.

Once known as the top of the Qing bang, now a leading contender for the third-generation successor of the Ye Family, Ye Wenhao silently followed Ye Fan, disappearing into the night like a ghost...
