Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I don’t have a car.”

This was indeed an honest answer. Although he owned the Heavenly Justice Group and had long since lost count of the amount of money in his bank account, he had never bothered to buy a car.

Cultivators wanted to ride a flying sword, not a car.

Moreover, Xiao Deng had always been with him when he was in Jiangnan Province, so he had never needed to worry about driving himself around.

From Ye Chen’s perspective, it was just a casual remark, but from the perspective of the others, it had a different meaning.

Other than Wei Ying, the other women seemed to have suddenly lost interest in Ye Chen.

In their opinion, Ye Chen could not even afford a car and did not wear any branded clothes. This kind of person was probably a bookworm.

So what if he was a genius? So what if he was a professor?

The male teacher in the white shirt smiled as if he had found a crutch to lean on. He said to Ye Chen, “Professor Ye, work hard and you’ll get everything eventually. Your salary won’t be too high at the beginning, but it shouldn’t be a big problem to buy a car after saving for a few years.”

“By the way, my name is Wu Fan, an associate professor in the Civil Engineering Department.”

Wu Fan wanted to pat Ye Chen on the shoulder, but Ye Chen shrugged him off.

“Let’s go.”

Not long after, the four male teachers each drove their cars to the school gate.

One was a Mercedes-Benz, one was a BMW, and the other two were continental cars of good brands.

There were a total of ten people in this gathering, so four cars were enough.

The other four teachers got into three cars, leaving just Wu Fan’s car empty.

Wu Fan rolled down the car window and smiled confidently. He said to Wei Ying, “Teacher Wei, you can sit in my car. I happen to have some academic problems to discuss with you. After all, 1’11 be going abroad on behalf of the school in a few days.”

After saying this, Wu Fan had a look of anticipation.

He did not mention Ye Chen at all as he had no intention of inviting Ye Chen. Perhaps if Ye Chen begged him for a ride, he would reluctantly acquiesce.

Naturally, Wei Ying knew what Wu Fan was thinking. She glanced at Ye Chen, her eyes filled with self-reproach, afraid that she would hurt Ye Chen’s pride.

The atmosphere of the welcome dinner that was supposed to be very pleasant had been ruined by their pointless need to show off.

“Professor Wu, I’ll take a taxi with Professor Ye. We know where the restaurant is anyway.”

Hearing this, Wu Fan’s face turned a little pale. Helpless, he could only say, “Teacher Wei, there’s a car ready and waiting, so why would you take a taxi? How about this? You and Professor Ye can get in together. You sit in the front passenger seat, and Professor Ye can sit in the back.”

Wei Ying glanced at Ye Chen and asked for his opinion.

“Professor Ye, what do you think?”

Ye Chen’s eyes were indifferent as he refused.

“There’s no need. I’ll handle my own transport.”

There was no need for him to suffer this man’s presence on a journey to a place that he was just going to out of courtesy.

Wu Fan was furious when he heard Ye Chen’s rejection.

“Professor Ye, what do you mean by that? Is your ego so fragile? I only said one sentence to you, but you’re already acting like this. The restaurant is six kilometers away from here. Also, even if you want to be stubborn, you have to think about Teacher Wei.”

He sat in the car and spoke with a hint of arrogance and displeasure.

One was in the car, while the other was standing outside. In Wu Fan’s eyes, it seemed to represent the huge difference in their status.

Ye Chen shook his head and said helplessly, “You’re mistaken. Your car is too small for my liking.”

Zheng Rui, who was in the car behind them, saw that there was no movement from the car in the front, so she opened the car door and got out. She said unhappily, “Professor Ye, can you stop dawdling? Too small? Professor Ye, although I respect you, is it so difficult to admit that someone else is better than you?”

That Mercedes-Benz was something Professor Wu bought after one of his research theses was awarded 800,000 yuan!”

“Professor Ye, I know you’re still young and jealous, but we’re here to welcome you. Can’t you be more mature? Don’t be a spoilsport!”

Then, she looked at Wei Ying and ordered, “Teacher Wei, since Professor Ye is being so stubborn, why don’t you get in our car?”

In the eyes of outsiders, Ye Chen was undoubtedly the most awkward and embarrassing existence at the moment.

Wei Ying stood in front of Ye Chen and said to Zheng Rui, “Teacher Zheng, you’re going too far. Get in the car yourself. I’ll take a taxi with Professor Ye later.”

Her tone was cold. This group of people was too much!

Wu Fan looked at the time and grew impatient. He said, “Forget it. Since Professor Ye doesn’t know what’s good for him, then there’s no need for us to stick around. How about this? I’ll treat everyone to a meal at the newly-opened Weixuan Restaurant in Capital City.”

The situation was spiraling out of control.

Although no one cursed, Ye Chen was undoubtedly being sidelined, even though he was supposed to be the one being welcomed.

How ridiculous was this!

Wei Ying’s expression flickered. She grabbed Ye Chen’s hand and glared at them. Then, she said to Ye Chen, “Professor Ye, I haven’t thanked you for helping me in the elevator today. In that case, 1’11 treat you to dinner at a nearby restaurant.”

She was furious when she realized what their true attitudes and character were like.

“Alright then.”

Ye Chen glanced at her hand, which was tightly gripping his own. He could sense the outrage she felt, which left him with a good impression.

At this moment, in a Maybach not far away.

The driver, who had just taken a nap, woke up. He looked around and immediately noticed Ye Chen at the school gate and recalled Xiang Chengdong’s instructions.

Without hesitation, he opened the car door and walked quickly toward Ye Chen.

“Mr. Ye, do you need a ride?”

Ye Chen was momentarily stunned before he reacted. He glanced at the Maybach that was not far away and nodded.

Then, he patted Wei Ying’s shoulder and said, “Let’s go. There’s a car ready now.”

Ye Chen arrived at the Maybach, and the driver took the initiative to bow slightly and open the door for him. He said respectfully, “Mr. Ye, please.”

With that, Ye Chen got into the car, and then motioned to Wei Ying to get in.

At this moment, the atmosphere seemed to have quieted down.

Wu Fan and Zheng Rui were completely dumbfounded, and it looked as if they had seen a ghost.

Even Wei Ying’s body stiffened and she did not move. She was staring deeply and Ye Chen with surprise and shock.

At the same time, many onlookers cast their gazes this way. Maybach was considered a top luxury car brand, and buying one would cost at least 10 million!

Furthermore, this was the limousine version.. Last but not least, it had a white license plate, which meant that it belonged to someone with a special status!
