“Wow how sweet.”

“Your husband sure loves you a lot”

“Mary, your husband bought a car?”

The other party has finally raised the question which Yuan Ying replied humbly but slightly proud, “Yeah, I already told him not to buy a car but he kept on insisting on buying one. We all work in the city where there are train and bus services. Do you think there is any use in buying a car?”

A colleague beside responded, “After all, it’s still convenient to own a car”

“You can even go on a car trip and explore”

“Next time life would be easier when you bring your kids around.”

“Oh yeah Mary, what car did your husband buy?

Delighted that the other party has asked the most important question which Yuan Ying was waiting to answer, she acted as if she is recalling and hesitantly answered, “I think it was some BMW. Sigh, he said that it costs three to four hundred grand. I don’t know cars that well, can’t figure out why he bought such an expensive car.”

The colleagues nearby gave an envious look and expressed, “Such a brilliant car, your husband must be doing very well.” 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

“Sigh, my husband is merely driving a 90 plus grand car. I’m even ashamed to visit my relatives’ houses last year.”

“I’ll be honest with you guys, but please don’t be angry,” Yuan Ying conveyed cockily.

“To me, cars below a hundred grand are not worthy to be referred to as a car. Previously when my husband hadn’t bought a car, I told him if he wants to buy a car, it has to be above 200 grand. I will not get into a car that is anything below that value. Those below a hundred grand are the real frightening ones. Have you seen those locally-produced eight to nighty grand cars? They get crushed very easily! I’m never going to sit in these cars.”

The faces of the female colleagues turned black instantly upon hearing that and no words were spoken.

Another female colleague said, “In the end, Mary’s husband is still the most capable, he is only 30 years old this year right? You are married to the best guy among us all.”

“Haha, it’s just luck. His company has been doing quite well this year”, Yuan Ying said sheepishly, while she was secretly delighted.

Just at this moment, a Porsche Palmera appeared in front of a shuttle bus stop, slowly driving past the crowd and heading towards the main gate of the office building.

Upon seeing Zhao Yao and Sonia beyond the windows of the car, Yuan Ying, as well as several female colleagues who were there, were all shocked beyond words.

“Zhao Yao?” Yuan Ying stared at the sports car ahead. Although she may not know the model of the car, from the car’s one-of-the-kind and seamless design, it is obvious that the car is worth quite a fortune.

As the silhouette the car disappeared, a female colleague nearby hurriedly began to gossip.

“Is that Zhao Yao? How is he driving a sports car?”

“I recognize that car! Wasn’t Liu Tao driving this car?”

“Liu Tao?”

“It’s the character Andy in <Ode to Joy>! Haven’t you watched the TV series <Ode to Joy>?”

“Oh yes oh yes! It’s the car Andy was driving. It is worth over a million!”

“I also saw Sonia in the same car!”

“Absurd! If someone asks me for a date driving the same car, I would also agree”

Hearing the chatters of the colleagues around, Yuan Ying couldn’t bear to look at the sports car that left. She finally understood what Zhao Yao meant when he said that he didn’t care less about a few thousand dollars. He was not trying to put up a strong front, he really meant it when he said it.

Looking at herself, she just looked like a clown in front of others. This made her feel really hurt and jealous of Zhao Yao.

Just at this moment, Yuan Ying’s phone rang. She peered at her phone’s display and it read, “Hey, what’s up?”.

“Manager Yuan, it’s bad! Our server code, as well as data, have all been deleted! Even the backup data is all gone!”

“What?!” Suddenly Yuan Ying felt a headache and her face turned livid. “Don’t hang up, I’ll be right on my way!”

With the latest version of the server code and database deleted, even with the help of the developers’ own original saved version, sad to say, restoration might still take one to two weeks of work. The progress of the project is once again delayed, tarnishing Yuan Ying’s own work performance.

Once she thought about this, the look on her face became worse.

At this moment, Zhao Yao’s previous words struck her.

“....But for this matter, I will not let it slide easily.”

With her eyebrows closed together, she questioned with rage in her heart whether It was Zhao Yao’s doing.

However, Yuan Ying did not have the slightest evidence and after a series of investigations, it was found that her computer accessed the server and deleted everything.

Upon hearing the results, Yuan Ying’s face turned black, and looking at the surprised glares of the people around, she almost spat blood.

...

On the other hand on the Palmera’s passenger seat, Sonia looked at Zhao Yao and asked, “You don’t have a good relationship with Manager Yuan?”

Zhao Yao thought about it and think that there is nothing he could not say, so he replied, “I told her I applied for leave but she was angry that I was quitting. So she purposely considered that as being absent from work and even deducted my salary. Do you even believe that?”

Sonia looked at Zhao Yao and she was only thinking about that Palmera in front of her. She felt that rich people who could afford to drive this type of car did not need to spread lies on small matters like these.

“I believe you.” Nodded Sonia who apologized, “Sorry, I’ve mistaken you previously.”

Looking at Sonia’s remorseful look, Zhao Yao could only tear up.

“This is the power of driving a sports car. Once I have a sports car, she will believe whatever I say.”

On the other side, Sonia curiously asked, “Did you resign for a new job?”

“Nah, I don’t wish to work for others anymore. I want to set up my own business.” Zhao Yao giggled and replied.

“Wow, business!” Sonia spoke with envy, “Have you found investors, or your family....” Looking at the Palmera in front, she believed that Zhao Yao must be born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Only then could he retire so early to set up his own business.

“I came from a humble family.” Zhao Yao shrugged off and said, “I hadn’t found any partner, I intend to use my savings for these few years as the seed fund for my business.”

Although Sonia did not encourage setting up a business at a young age and without family background, she still admired his charisma and capability.

As both of them chatted, they reached the airport and Sonia left the car. As she left, she waved and revealed a wide smile, “Thank you. Without you, I would have missed the flight!”

“Its nothing much!”

Seeing the silhouette of the Palmera leaving, Sonia suddenly came to her senses and hit her head, “Oh god, I’ve forgotten to pay.” She frowned as she did not want to be seen as a cheapo.

Zhao Yao, on the other hand, did not care about all these and called with his phone.

“Hey? Brother Fei? Have you reached?”

“Oh yes, I will take roughly half an hour before I reach. Not in a hurry, no rush!”

Once the call ended, Zhao Yao headed towards the restaurant which he had made reservations. Brother Fei was his fellow roommate in his university days.

As Brother Fei’s father and uncle were policemen, he also became a Policeman after he graduated. Although he did not hold a high ranking position, he was very well-informed.

Zhao Yao approached him this time around as he hoped he could help him with a suicide case.
