Chapter 647 - 381: Cars!!!_4

It’s not that he’s unambitious, what’s important is that there’s another chance to win a prize.

Zhao Qingge is buying him a car, a Mercedes at that, wouldn’t that be five or six hundred thousand?

At least ten chances to win a prize!

Oh dear, just delivering some food and exchanged for a car, where can you reason this out?

Li Peifeng was delighted for a moment, then he thought of something and hesitated, "But I might not have time today, Wenyue accepted an advertisement, and I have to go back to shoot a video with her."

Zhao Qingge asked, "What time will you finish shooting? Can you finish before five?"

The video shoot wouldn’t take much time, mainly because Li Peifeng promised Huang Tianxuan that they would go shopping after work, and she might also buy him a gift. Even though the things Huang Tianxuan buys probably wouldn’t be as valuable as what Zhao Qingge buys, Li Peifeng didn’t want to break his promise.

I also don’t want to go back on my word, but Zhao Qingge is giving me a Mercedes!

The temptation of at least ten prize chances forced Li Peifeng to consider carefully and estimate in the most pessimistic way.

If he doesn’t immediately order the car with Old Zhao today, and if something unexpected happens in the next few days that annoys Old Zhao, and he changes his mind about buying him the car, how would that be any different from losing a hundred million?

"I can finish!"

Li Peifeng affirmed, "I’ll call you first thing when I’m done!"

Zhao Qingge nodded slightly, "Okay, I’ll pick you up then."

Just after one o’clock in the afternoon, Li Peifeng returned to Jintian City Apartments with an empty insulated lunch box, pondering how to arrange his time to perfectly solve the conflict between Huang Tianxuan and Zhao Qingge’s invitations.

The perfect solution is that he wants both Zhao Qingge’s Mercedes and Huang Tianxuan’s gift!

"I can only postpone Tianxuan’s date a bit, the 4S dealership closes around five or six, I’ll try to finish the shoot by around three, order the car, and then call Sister Xuan... hmmm, everything will be fine, but time is tight!"

Li Peifeng planned well, and the shooting went smoothly without any incidents.

This video was a one-minute short film comprising elements of costume, martial arts, action, romance, and comedy, shot on the rooftop of a residential building.

Li Peifeng and Wu Wenyue were the lead actors, one dressed in a black cape, wearing a bamboo hat, wielding a sword playing the role of a hero; the other donned in silver armor, wearing a red-tasseled helmet, holding a long spear acting as a female general.

The two stood on the rooftop sparring with each other, long sword against long spear, after the fight they delivered their lines, and a martial arts mobile game ad was inserted — that was a wrap.

The most challenging part of the video was the fight scene; Wu Wenyue worried that Li Peifeng wouldn’t be good with a sword, requiring her to teach him bit by bit. Unexpectedly, after just two demonstrations, Mr. Li completely grasped it, wielding the long sword as if it were an extension of himself, making the fight look convincing...

"Whack, whack, whack~"

"That’s a wrap, that’s a wrap, the wind is too strong up here on the rooftop."

The crew packed up the equipment and gradually went downstairs. Li Peifeng quickly sent a message via WeChat to Zhao Qingge, ’All done, you can come pick me up.’

A few seconds later, Zhao Qingge replied with a "Okay."

"What are you looking at?"

"Checking the time, hmm, it’s three twenty-one."

Seeing Wu Wenyue approaching, Li Peifeng naturally locked his phone screen and kept walking, casually shifting the topic, "This acting gig was a bit awkward for me."

Wu Wenyue understood that it was his first time shooting a commercial, feeling embarrassed about reciting the ad lines, so she raised four fingers, "The pay is good though, I initially didn’t want to take a game ad, but they offered this amount for just a minute. We finished shooting in two hours; other major influencers want to earn this kind of money but can’t."

"The elevator seems... overloaded?"

"You guys go ahead first, I’ll head home to change clothes with Sister Yue."

Li Peifeng waved the staff ahead with the equipment to take the elevator first, while he and Wu Wenyue opened the door, changing out of their costumes: "I’m just saying the script is a bit lacking, the lines aren’t very catchy and seem stiff."

Wu Wenyue frowned, "I agree it’s lacking; Xiaoyu and the others worked hard on it, but... you’re in the School of Arts, you probably know people with such talent, right? See if you can recruit one or two classmates to help."

Li Peifeng pondered for a moment, "I’ll ask them next time I run into them."

After a brief chat, the two finished changing, and Wu Wenyue looked puzzled, "Aren’t you changing into pajamas?"

"I have something to do and need to head out."

Li Peifeng’s eyes feigned calmness, yet Wu Wenyue launched a series of three questions;

"With whom? Where? Doing what?"

Li Peifeng hesitated for a moment, figuring since Zhao Qingge would be picking him up in the car, Wu Wenyue would see anyway, so he intended to be honest, but before he could speak, his phone rang.

It was a call from Huang Tianxuan.

"Hello?!"

Upon answering, the first thing Huang Tianxuan said with a smile was, "Come downstairs, I’m outside, I have a surprise for you."

What the heck, how come Huang Tianxuan arrived first?! Didn’t I tell you to wait for my call? It’s not your cue yet!!

Li Peifeng was a bit bewildered but replied, "Okay, I’ll come down now."

How to handle this turn of events?

Is the Mercedes from Zhao going to fall through?! Even if it doesn’t, choosing to leave with Zhao Qingge would still hurt Huang Tianxuan, plus Li Peifeng wants gifts from both, and now he can only get one...

"Let’s go, I’ll go down with you."

Wu Wenyue seemed curious, "Are you two going shopping or to the movies?"

"She said shopping..."

Li Peifeng felt extremely distressed, connecting telepathically with Zhao Qingge during the elevator ride, yep, she’s already at the entrance of the community.

Mr. Li suddenly resented why he lived so close to the school, close enough to be helpless in this situation!

"Let’s go, we’re on the first floor now."

"Oh."

Wu Wenyue looked at him carefully, "Why does your face look like you just ate shit?"

Li Peifeng sighed without speaking, silently stepping out into the corridor, welcoming the spring sunlight, yet felt no warmth in his heart, instinctively surveying the surroundings...

"Where is she?"

"There’s no car either; she didn’t drive in."

The two of them puzzled, looked around, then their eyes simultaneously fixed five meters straight ahead, where a brand-new black Mercedes G550 was parked, its daytime running lights on, and without a license plate, clearly a new car just on the road.

"Beep~"

The horn of the Mercedes G beeped, and then the driver’s seat door opened. Huang Tianxuan, wearing a black leather trench coat, sunglasses, stepped out, striding with long legs clad in tall boots, cool and flashy.

"Yo, got a new car?"

Wu Wenyue’s casual tone carried an almost imperceptible hint of sourness.

What’s so special about it? Just a Mercedes G, huh? I can buy one in less than two months!

"I didn’t switch."

Huang Tianxuan approached, smiled, and took out a set of car keys from her pocket, placing them in Li Peifeng’s hand, "It’s yours. From now on, don’t ride a bicycle when delivering food for me, got it?"

Wu Wenyue’s face turned pale, her cheeks trembling, maybe from the cold.

"..."

Li Peifeng took a deep breath of cold air, and before he recovered from the complex swirl of emotions, he heard another ’beep’ from beside him.

Looking over, it was a BMW 5 Series plug-in hybrid. Inside the car, Zhao Qingge was frowning slightly, her expression a bit bewildered.

Cars, all these cars, it’s a collision of destiny!
