C165 Gift
"Yeah, the address is also the same." Huang Jingjing replied.
Lu Yuan had already been out of the school for more than three hours. Last time, he had only used four hours to drive from the highway junction to the campus.
In addition, the number of tall buildings by the side of the road began to lessen. Occasionally, he would see some vegetables growing on the ground, and even the buildings seemed old and worn out.
"Jingjing, I think we should eat first, before I starve to death." Lu Yuan looked at the navigation system, which indicated that they had to turn around on the small road to reach their destination.
"Lu Yuan, I'm sorry, I was busy …"
Lu Yuan felt a headache coming on. Huang Jingjing was too polite, too polite. This made him not know if their current relationship was a couple or not.
The GPS clearly showed that they were only two kilometers away from their destination, but they had been driving for 45 minutes.
The destination was a dilapidated district. The paint on the sides of the district's buildings had long since become mottled due to the impact of the rain. In the guard room of the district was an old man.
The old man asked Lu Yuan a few symbolic questions before he told him to drive the car inside.
Lu Yuan stopped the car and took out Huang Jingjing's father's specialty from the trunk.
Huang Jingjing took the local specialties from Lu Yuan and walked towards the third floor.
"Jingjing, do you need me to get it for you?" Lu Yuan asked.
"It's fine, it's not too heavy." Huang Jingjing said as she walked, "Lu Yuan, wait for me downstairs for a while. I'll be right down."
Lu Yuan nodded and stopped by the stairs.
Huang Jingjing carried a few pounds of local specialties and walked up the stairs. There was no elevator in the building, but Huang Jingjing's second aunt lived on the fourteenth floor. Huang Jingjing walked for a while before finally reaching the fourteenth floor.
The soundproofing of the old building wasn't very good. The faint sounds of laughter could be heard from inside the building. It seemed like the family was watching TV.
"Dong, dong, dong." Huang Jingjing walked up and knocked on the door a few times.
"Who is it?" A middle-aged woman's voice came from inside the room.
"Second Aunt, it's me, Huang Jingjing. My dad told me to send you some local specialties."
"Oh, it's Jingjing." After the middle-aged woman answered, Huang Jingjing heard the sound of her shoes.
"Why are you pulling me?!" The middle-aged woman suddenly said.
"Don't open the door." A man said in a very low voice, but Huang Jingjing could hear him clearly from the outside.
"What local specialties? They're probably here to borrow money again." The man continued.
"Then what do we do? I already agreed to it. I can't possibly pretend that I'm not home, right?" The middle-aged woman replied.
"Just tell her we're going out and tell her to come next time." "Just don't open the door for her anyway. Your poor relatives are too much trouble to handle."
"Jingjing, I'm sorry, Second Aunt is about to leave and can't entertain you anymore. Just put your stuff on the door, I'll come visit you at your school another day." the woman shouted.
"En, it's fine. I'll leave the things at the door for you, Second Aunt. I won't disturb you any longer." Huang Jingjing left her specialties at the door and went downstairs.
The middle-aged woman let out a sigh of relief at the sound of footsteps coming from the stairs.
"Has he left?" the man asked.
"He must have left. Let me open the door and take a look." The middle-aged woman replied.
"Take a look at them from the peephole. These people are full of tricks. When the time comes, they'll want money." The man said.
"Alright, I'll go take a look." The middle-aged woman brought her eyes to the peephole and looked around carefully. "There's no one else."
The middle-aged woman opened the door a little and took a few glances. Then, she quickly walked out of the door, picked up the local specialties and quickly walked back.
"What the heck is this?" The man glanced at him and asked.
"So it's lotus root juice." The middle-aged woman looked at it and said, "This thing is only something I liked to drink when I was young, leave it for Nannan to drink."
"Tell me, what can that big brother of yours send over? It's all worthless trash. At least before this, we could even send over two hens to cook soup." The man's tone was filled with contempt.
Lu Yuan kicked a stone out of boredom downstairs. Before he could kick a few times, he heard hurried footsteps, "You finished sending me off? You don't look too good, are you alright, Jingjing? "
"It's fine. I might have climbed too many floors." Huang Jingjing smiled with some difficulty.
"Oh yeah, let's go eat. Why don't we get your second aunt and the others to eat nearby?" Lu Yuan thought that he should get on good terms with Huang Jingjing's relatives in the future … It's convenient.
"No need, my second aunt and the others are still busy. Let's go eat." Huang Jingjing replied.
"Then that's really unfortunate. Where are we going to eat? Let me search for a bit." Lu Yuan took out his phone and typed in the name of the restaurant in the search window. There weren't any particularly good restaurants nearby, and the highest rated restaurant was a restaurant called Bi Jiangnan. It was about three kilometers away from here.
If they drove back to the city center to eat now, Lu Yuan and Huang Jingjing would faint from hunger before they reached the city center, so this Jade River South was pretty much their best choice at the moment.
After setting up a destination on the car, Lu Yuan started the Lying Dragon.
Lying Dragon's car, which cost ten million gold, was second to none in terms of speed or acceleration. However, it was a pity that it was useless because of this small pathway.
Lu Yuan's car was half stuck on the dirt road and half on the cement ground as he slowly drove forward, afraid that he would cut the base. Next to Lu Yuan's car, one electric car after another drove past at high speed. It was as if they were laughing at this hulking big guy.
The Lying Dragon was really trapped in the shallow bank.
This section of road that couldn't be considered long once again took Lu Yuan over an hour. Lu Yuan secretly decided that he would never drive here again, unless Huang Jingjing needed it.
Lu Yuan got out of the car, "Looks like I need to find a time to wash my car. That's not right. Why is it so smelly?"
The body of the Lying Dragon was covered in a lot of mud. It felt like there was something even more outrageous than dirt on top of it.
A modern car that was eighty percent new stopped not far away from the Lying Dragon. A group of forty-year-old couples got off the car.
"Look, it's Mercedes-Benz!" the woman said in surprise.
"What's so special about a Mercedes-Benz?" The man said carelessly.
"Not at all. Not at all. Why don't you buy one instead?" The woman scoffed.
"That's why your hair is so long and your knowledge is so short. This type of tattered, second-hand Mercedes-Benz is even more expensive than my car." The man said disdainfully.
"Ah, is that so?" The woman seemed to be shocked, "But the Mercedes-Benz looks handsome. Why don't you buy a second-hand Mercedes-Benz?"
"Who knows what's wrong with this kind of used car. Driving it to break the anchor, who knows what's wrong with it? Who knows what's wrong with it?" The man said.
"Second Aunt, Second Uncle?" Huang Jingjing got out of the car and said in astonishment.
