Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
While driving the latest Pagani supercar, Jiang Feng became really popular on the streets. He also drove very fast, and the roar the car made along the way attracted the attention of countless people. When such a cool luxury car passed in front of one’s eyes, one would naturally turn around and take a look. But one glance would definitely shock them and make them fall head over heels with it.
On the streets of Shanghai, luxury cars and supercars could be seen everywhere. It was common to see rich second-generation heirs speeding on the streets. However, this was definitely the first time this particular Pagani had appeared in this big city. Many boys were stunned when they saw Jiang Feng driving over, and their faces were filled with envy.
“Look, look, look, a Pagani!”
“F*ck, it’s a tycoon again!”
“Since when does someone in Shanghai have such a luxurious car? How come I’ve never seen it before?”
...
“Oh my God, this car is so cool! I feel like I should drive it to experience it!”
“Don’t even think about it. You’ll never drive such a car in your life.”
...
“D*mn it! Not only is this guy handsome, but he even drives such a nice car. How are we supposed to live with this?!”
“He’s living like the main character, while you and I aren’t even supporting characters. This is too f*cking annoying.”
...
Whenever Jiang Feng passed by an area, some people were shocked, some sighed, and some felt jealous. However, his expression was very calm. As he felt the car speeding away, Jiang Feng took a deep breath. This feeling made his whole body feel comfortable, even more comfortable than drinking a glass of century-old wine could make him feel. Jiang Feng drove the car, making it roar on the way. He wanted to drive it at top speed!
...
Soon, he followed the GPS and arrived at the location provided by Lin Miaoxue. Looking at the building in front of him, Jiang Feng parked the car directly in the temporary parking space by the roadside. Then, he picked up his phone and dialed a number. Lin Miaoxue, who was upstairs, saw the call from Jiang Feng. She hesitated for a moment before she picked up the call.
“I’m already downstairs,” Jiang Feng said directly as soon as the call was picked up.
“Um... Wait a few minutes for me. I have something urgent to do.”
Lin Miaoxue looked at her half-melted eyeshadow and spoke hurriedly. Liu Xinyao, who was beside her, giggled when she saw Lin Miaoxue’s nervous look. Her hands moved faster as well, helping her best friend deal with her beautiful hair.
Jiang Feng had heard that she still had something urgent to do, so he answered and then hung up the phone. He turned his head and looked through the window and right at the building where Lin Miaoxue was. This was a very famous building in the Shanghai CBD area called the Quantum Building! The people who worked there were definitely elites from all walks of life.
China’s very famous green space construction group was one of the tenants of this building. Their group took up one-third of a floor, but in a place like Shanghai, where every inch of land was worth a fortune, that was absolutely amazing! And this was only a branch of their group.
However, Jiang Feng did not care about this group. Instead, he saw an advertisement on the screen of a promotional building next to that building. On the screen was the recently hyped World Cup match! The Chinese soccer team would be playing against the Syrian soccer team.
This was the first time in many years that China had entered the World Cup, and countless people had high hopes for the result. The next stage was the top 12, and the experts on the screen were explaining that the match was going to take place tomorrow.
“The performance of our national soccer team so far, as well as the fact that we broke through the group stage, shows our strength!”
“And everyone knows that tomorrow’s match is against Syria, a country that has been in chaos all year round. Their soccer training has been abandoned for many years.”
“Their team was formed at the last minute and may have been affected by the war. Both their strength and condition show that they are very weak. They have already lost three times in a row!”
“If they lose another match tomorrow, they will be directly eliminated. This is a team with a low morale and lack of training, but our national soccer team’s chances of winning cannot be 100%, right? This is a little too arrogant, but I believe that our chances will definitely be more than 80%!”
“Hahaha, Kang Le is still speaking too conservatively. In my opinion, they will definitely win tomorrow’s match!”
“The national soccer team’s training in the past few years and their performance in the group stage make the result obvious. A team like Syria will definitely experience a crushing defeat!”
The two commentators spoke one after another. Every word revealed the strength of the national soccer team of China, as well as their confidence about winning. In the interviews that followed, countless fans were also very optimistic about the national soccer team. Everyone felt that their team would definitely win the game tomorrow! Some people even said that the national soccer team would crush the other team with a score of 10:0!
Jiang Feng looked at the commentary of the experts and the emotions of the people and felt somewhat puzzled. Although he did not play soccer, he still watched soccer matches. In his opinion, the national soccer team had never fought for anything. This time, they had been able to advance thanks to luck, as they had played against the most popular teams in the world. But according to these experts, the national soccer team seemed to be quite powerful this time!
Although the Syrian national soccer team was not top-notch, it was definitely not trash. However, they had been involved in war over the years, so they had not been paying attention to sports. It was unexpected that, in just a few years, they would forget about the glory of this strong team.
Jiang Feng shook his head and looked away. But just as he turned his head, seeing the soccer betting shop on the ground floor of the Quantum Building made his eyes light up. Jiang Feng naturally understood the soccer betting process. As he looked at this soccer betting shop, he gradually had some thoughts. Then, the Super-Prediction Card appeared in front of his eyes! Upon seeing the golden card, Jiang Feng got out of the car and walked straight to the shop in front of him!
