I'm A Baller - Chapter 83
Chapter 83: Appearance Fee
When Wang Yan emerged from his state of extreme focus, Lin Weiwei had just finished a good game with her best friends. Though the process had been hard, the victory was sweet. She was in a good mood.
Her eyes lit up when she saw Wang Yan looking up and stretching. “Are you done?”
“Yes.” Wang Yan nodded.
“Then, let’s get out of here!”
Her eyes became even brighter.
Wang Yan suddenly became alert. “Tell me first. Where are we going and what are we going to do?”
“Do you think I’ll continue to show you around? Dream on!” Lin Weiwei pouted her lips in disdain. She put on an arrogant look as she said, “We’ll go back to our respective places.”
Their experience this morning had tortured her to the point that she was sick of it.
She was the dignified beauty Weiwei, who had partied in various corners of Dongcheng District. Since when had she ever been trapped in a room where all she could see were books?
She had been sitting beside a piece of wood. Wang Yan was so absorbed in reading that he didn’t even pay attention to what was happening around him. She couldn’t even find someone to have a chat with when she wanted to.
What a nuisance!
In contrast to Liu Li, Lin Weiwei had zero interest in boys who liked to read. She always felt that they didn’t fit in.
Therefore, though her admiration for Wang Yan was sincere, it was also true that the two of them wouldn’t get along.
Lin Weiwei thought, ‘I’m done with you. Let’s part ways here!’
…
When Wang Yan heard her words, he similarly heaved a sigh of relief. He said with a smile, “Okay. Then I’ll send you back to school?”
Lin Weiwei suddenly felt slightly irritated.
Although she was the one who suggested going home, Wang Yan’s response of seemingly being relieved of a heavy burden made him deserve to be beaten up.
Lin Weiwei grumbled internally, ‘I have just praised you in front of Little Liu Li. You haven’t even gotten to bang her… You haven’t even gotten married with your girlfriend yet, and you already want to ditch the matchmaker. You’re really a dog!’
“Humph!”
Lin Weiwei snorted coldly and took the lead as she walked in front.
Wang Yan was more than happy to be walking behind her. He chuckled evilly as he stared at her pleasing figure.
There were plenty of girls who were trained in International Style dances, but only a few dancers could integrate the basic footwork into their daily activities. This made Lin Weiwei a level higher than other ordinary long-legged girls.
It was a waste not to admire her figure.
Wang Yan was always on guard whenever he was alone with any of Liu Li’s best friends.
It was not that he was worried that they would harm him, but it was because he had a pretty good idea of his own ability to resist temptation.
It was good to be young, but with a physique of 79 points and the pain of having nowhere to vent his energy, Wang Yan could only endure the stress alone.
Wang Yan thought, ‘I’m done with you. Let’s part ways here!’
…
Exiting the north gate of the library, Wang Yan and Lin Weiwei walked along Wanshousi Road. 200 meters to the west was the south gate of the dance academy.
They walked, one in front and one behind, with a three-meter gap between them. Lin Weiwei received a call. She said, “Yes, I’m in school, but I have something to do here… Ah? Why are you here… Wait, I saw your car.”
Frowning, she stopped in her tracks. She waved at a red sports car parked on the side of the road.
The car door was immediately opened and a man came out.
Wang Yan had good eyesight and recognized the man at a glance. He was Huang Xu, who had caused a lot of trouble when they were at karaoke last time.
Wang Yan then swept a glance at the car Huang Xu was driving. The German word Porsche was embossed on the back of the car.
A Porsche?
Wang Yan could only tell this much about Huang Xu’s car with his current understanding of cars. He didn’t even know the model of the car. However, judging by the rear wing of the car… Was it called the rear wing or the spoiler? Anyway, judging from it, the car wasn’t an ordinary sports car.
Huang Xu got out of the car and saw Lin Weiwei. He greeted her with a grin on his face, “Weiwei!”
His arm was raised halfway when he noticed Wang Yan following behind Lin Weiwei. His smile froze.
Lin Weiwei didn’t care what Huang Xu thought. She asked directly, “Bro, why are you here? Didn’t I ask you to call me if there’s anything? You parked your very cool-looking 911 in front of the school gate. Aren’t you inviting trouble upon me by doing so?”
Huang Xu was a little confused by the overbearing question. What was going on? Where did her bad temper come from out of the blue?
Wang Yan nearly couldn’t hold back his laughter.
Sister Weiwei was forced to sit in the library for the whole morning because of him. Certainly she had lots of anger pent up. Huang Xu just so happened to appear here and became the perfect punching bag for her to vent out her frustrations. How pitiful was Huang Xu!
In reality, Huang Xu was quite a bad-tempered young master. But when he was interacting with Lin Weiwei, he couldn’t be too stubborn.
Lin Weiwei was an arrogant girl from the Capital to begin with. Their families knew each other well; there was a gap in their families’ wealth, but it wasn’t to the extent of being in different social classes.
He was pursuing Lin Weiwei seriously. His parents also approved of her. In their opinion, she was elegant and was not entangled in any indecency; hence, she was a very good candidate for a daughter-in-law.
Therefore, he couldn’t show his spoiled-brat temper in front of Lin Weiwei.
The last time when Huang Xu was at Lin Weiwei’s birthday party, he had made things pretty unpleasant for everyone. Huang Xu disappeared for a few days, then he began to carefully make up for his mistake.
Of course, his mind was not completely on Lin Weiwei, so he only found a suitable opportunity to meet her today.
Who would have thought that he would suffer such indignity as soon as he showed up!
Huang Xu grouched about his bad luck internally while forcing a smile on his face, saying, “I did call you, but you didn’t pick up. Your brother said that you haven’t been home since yesterday and were staying in school. I happened to be nearby, so I came to wait for you to have your lunch break. Where did you go?”
Lin Weiwei rolled her eyes again when she heard that. She was in a rage.
“How could I pick up the phone when I was in the library?”
(⊙_⊙)
The library?!
Huang Xu stared at her wide-eyed. He couldn’t help but look at Wang Yan, who had caught up and was now standing behind Lin Weiwei.
Damn, son!
Did he know magic or martial arts?
This fella actually managed to get Lin Weiwei to go to the library?
While he was still in shock, Lin Weiwei introduced them to each other perfunctorily, “Huang Xu. Wang Yan. Both of you have met before, right?”
“You left a strong impression.” Huang Xu politely extended his hand. “Bro, I’m really sorry about last time. Shall we get to know each other again?”
Wang Yan didn’t have a good impression of this guy, but he didn’t have any grudges against him either. He shook hands with him and smiled calmly. “Hello.”
The rich second generation of the Capital had always looked down on outsiders. Even if they knew that they couldn’t afford to offend the other party, they would at most avoid the latter. It was rare for them to mingle with outsiders. This was because the local social circles were sufficient to fulfill all their needs, so they didn’t need to expand their connections to other places.
After shaking hands with Wang Yan, Huang Xu immediately turned his attention back to Lin Weiwei.
“Weiwei, haven’t you always been very interested in racing? There is a new racing track opening in Xiaosongfa, Tongzhou. The few of us have just familiarized ourselves with the track. We booked a three-hour session on the track this afternoon. How about it? Do you want to go for a spin with me?”
“Really? What time?”
Lin Weiwei’s eyes suddenly lit up. It seemed that she was really interested in it.
Huang Xu was overjoyed as he replied, “Four to seven in the evening. Everyone attending are brothers of our club!”
“Hmm?” Lin Weiwei frowned and hesitated. “What kind of odd timing is that? I have just made plans with a few besties to have dinner together.”
Huang Xu was a little embarrassed and explained, “The new track is hard to be booked for the weekend. Why don’t you bring your friends with you? We can have dinner together after the race.”
Lin Weiwei was in two minds for a moment, then she suddenly turned to look at Wang Yan.
“Wang Wang, why don’t you accompany us? I have just made plans with Nawu and Shishi to have dinner together tonight. Without a man accompanying us, I’m not at ease to go so far away.”
When Lin Weiwei said this, Huang Xu almost lost his temper.
‘You’re not at ease going out with me, yet you’re at ease going out with HIM?!
‘How long have the both of you known each other?’
Wang Yan wasn’t happy either. He put on airs as he lifted his head to a side.
Lin Weiwei looked so miserable when she was asked to keep Wang Yan company while he read this morning. She fidgeted like a big worm. Just now, they had agreed to go their separate ways. Now that something had popped up, she thought of him again?
‘Shall we first decide on how much of an appearance fee are you going to pay me?!’ Wang Yan thought.
