Chapter 1754: Chapter 650: Hu Ling’s Heartfelt Confession

"Besides, you forgot about my abilities in that area. Do you think you can handle it yourself?"

Hu Ling had to pout her lips, "...Alright."

But then she suddenly remembered something and said, "But I can handle you myself tonight, after all, you already used so much energy just now in the river."

Zhang Jingdong noticed the playful glimmer in her eyes at this moment and immediately said, "Really, that confident? Why don’t you give it a try then?"

A hint of blush appeared on Hu Ling’s charming face, but she said, "Bring it on then!"

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully completing the teaching in a special environment, rewarded with 2 million yuan!"

The night was getting deeper, but the woods became brighter as the bonfire strangely burned stronger, as if fueled by many additives of love.

More than an hour later, Hu Ling’s singing suddenly echoed through the woods.

Zhang Jingdong was very pleased with this and rewarded her with a bottle of Life One.

...

At four in the morning, the two dressed and left the woods together.

Arriving at the car, Hu Ling said, "I’ll drive us back, you’re leaving today, and I want to experience sitting in the passenger seat while I race one more time."

Zhang Jingdong happily replied, "Sure, just as well, I can also check your current racing skills again."

The two got into their car, Hu Ling prepared briefly, then immediately shot off like a bullet, making the car zoom forward in an instant.

Half an hour later, Zhang Jingdong praised, "Honestly, you’re the best driver I’ve personally trained."

Hu Ling instantly felt overjoyed, "Haha, thank you, Mr. Zhang!"

Zhang Jingdong then thought of something, "When you come to Jiangdu to find me, I’ll let you experience my Bugatti Veyron. Then you’ll know what true speed and passion are."

"Bugatti Veyron!?" Hu Ling was instantly surprised, "You... you actually own a Bugatti Veyron?"

Zhang Jingdong shrugged, "What’s this? Are you still doubting your man and his financial prowess?"

"I’m not doubting your skills in this regard, but such a legendary car isn’t something you can buy just by being wealthy, right?"

Zhang Jingdong’s gaze briefly paused at her lovely collarbone, "Of course, but didn’t you forget that the president of Jiangdu Super Car Club is my subordinate?"

Hu Ling immediately realized this, then burst into a happy expression, "So it turns out you really have a Bugatti Veyron! That’s just amazing! I’ll definitely have to experience this car when the time comes."

"Seeing as you truly like this car, I’ll let you drive it for the first half of the year. If everything goes safely during that period, I’ll gift it to you for your birthday next year."

Hu Ling knew Zhang Jingdong was generous, but she never imagined he could be generous to this extent.

After all, even a second-hand Bugatti Veyron would cost tens of millions, and all the cash her family has wouldn’t amount to that much.

She was stunned for several seconds before shaking her head, "No...no need, that...that’s far too valuable!"

Yet, she didn’t want Zhang Jingdong to feel she was purely refusing an expensive gift, so she added, "Plus, my parents will definitely find out and subsequently ask about it... so let’s not."

"Don’t worry, don’t you also have a supercar club there? I’ll let your club help maintain this car, so you can drive it whenever you want."

Hu Ling deeply felt Zhang Jingdong’s love, but the gift was so valuable she was a bit overwhelmed, "Really no need, I..."

Zhang Jingdong saw she was still reluctant and promptly gripped her hand firmly, "Please don’t refuse me, okay?"

"Don’t think about how expensive it is, instead consider that I’m willing to give you such a car, which demonstrates how much I love you. Sometimes, the price only symbolizes sincerity."

Hu Ling was at a loss to refute this now.

She hesitated for several seconds, then said, "...Alright, I’ll... I’ll first try if I can handle this car, if I can, then I’ll accept your gift."

Zhang Jingdong took her hand and gave it a kiss, "That’s how it should be."

On the road afterward, they didn’t speak again, but Hu Ling’s occasional glances at Zhang Jingdong grew ever softer and brighter.

When they returned to the town, it was already daylight.

Hu Ling reluctantly asked, "Where shall I drop you off?"

Not wanting her to leave him at Lihua Restaurant, Zhang Jingdong said, "Drop me at the crossroad on Main Street, I’ll buy some breakfast to take back to my parents."

"...Okay."

Twenty minutes later, with a poignant farewell, Zhang Jingdong got out of the car.

As he watched Hu Ling’s white Audi TT completely disappear from view, Zhang Jingdong walked to Lihua Restaurant.

He stood at the restaurant’s parking lot, thought about the charming scenes of last night, and then boarded his car looking content.

Back home, he had breakfast and talked with his parents for over two hours, then packed his luggage efficiently and headed to Lihua Restaurant.

Since he went to Zhang Lihua’s house last night, upon seeing him again, the look in Zhang Lihua’s eyes clearly had more innocence and attachment.

Zhang Jingdong placed his hand on her fragrant shoulder, "What’s this, can’t bear to let me go?"

Zhang Lihua first shook her head instinctively but eventually couldn’t help nodding, "...Yes."

"Don’t worry, I’m not leaving forever and you promised to come find me in Jiangdu as well."

After comforting her, seeing it wasn’t very effective, he thus took her to her office for a distinctly special farewell.

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully completing the teaching in a special environment, rewarded with 2 million yuan!"
