Chapter 52: Women are like clothes, brothers are like limbs

Asou smiled and said, "Indeed it has nothing to do with you, but Miss Yu seems to have forgotten that I beat you last night."

Hearing this, Yu Shishi was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and exclaimed in surprise, "Eh? Ah, the person driving the GTR last night was you? No wonder you looked a bit familiar!"

Jiang Jin thought to himself: *(Yu Shishi went street racing again last night?)*
*(This chick really is a racing maniac!)*

Asou's lips curved upward in a slightly smug smile as he said, "It seems Miss Yu still remembers me. I am deeply honored."

However, Yu Shishi showed no appreciation whatsoever. She gave a light, disdainful snort and retorted, "Hmpf, stop flattering yourself here!本小姐 (this young lady) is simply annoyed because I lost to you!" As she spoke, she rolled her eyes heavily.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Shishi turned her gaze toward Jiang Jin and asked in a coquettish tone, "Have you taken a fancy to the properties here?"

"That's right."

Jiang Jin nodded.

Seeing this, Yu Shishi's eyes rolled, and she said with a cheeky smile, "Then do me a favor, and I'll give you a discount."

Jiang Jin could guess what she was about to say even with his toes, and was about to refuse right then and there.

Right at that moment, a system notification chimed in his ear.

[Ding! Host, you have a new mission.]
[Mission: High-Speed Racing (2)]
[Mission Objective: Win the race against Kenji Asou and donate the won stakes to impoverished children.]
[Mission Reward: A base reward of 10 million Dragon Kingdom Currency, plus 10 times the amount of the won stakes.]

Jiang Jin hadn't expected the system to issue a related mission, and he was momentarily dumbfounded.

"Just help me out!"

Yu Shishi wrapped her arms around Jiang Jin's arm, swaying back and forth as she acted spoiled.

Jiang Jin's mouth twitched, and he quickly pulled his arm back, saying, "My parents are right here."

Yu Shishi didn't care in the least, a mischievous smile curling the corners of her lips. "So what? I'm pursuing you, after all."

Everyone present was dumbfounded!

The young heiress of Yu's Real Estate, saying she wanted to pursue Jiang Jin right in front of so many people?!
Surely she wasn't joking!

"Uncle, Auntie, my name is Yu Shishi. Since this is our first meeting and I didn't bring any gifts for you two, why don't you see which house you like, and I'll buy you one?"

"Just to be clear beforehand, I can only afford to gift ones with a total price under 10 million. It's not that I'm being stingy, it's just that my grandfather only gave me that much authority."

"However, if you two happen to like a more expensive place, I can cover the difference."

Yu Shishi walked up in front of Jiang Jianye and his wife, speaking in an extremely well-behaved manner.

This time, the others were truly dumbfounded.

Saying she wanted to pursue Jiang Jin in public was one thing, but directly offering to buy them a house? Where was the reserve of a top-tier beauty?!

"Also, actually, I'm quite gentle and virtuous in daily life. You two mustn't be scared by how I was just now."

"If I marry Jiang Jin in the future, I will definitely be a wonderful wife who takes care of the family. I can guarantee that to you both!"

Yu Shishi patted her chest, making the pledge with absolute certainty.

"What a lovely and likable girl!"

Li Yuru took Yu Shishi's hand, finding her more pleasing to the eye the more she looked at her.

Jiang Jianye also chuckled happily.

Right at that moment, Yang Chuxue walked over to Li Yuru's side and said pointedly, "Aunty, I have a female classmate whose private life was an absolute mess. Later, when she got tired of playing around, she willingly married down to an honest man."

The smile on Li Yuru's face froze instantly!

The expressions of the others also turned strange.

Although Yang Chuxue was talking about her friend, anyone with eyes could tell she was implicitly referring to Yu Shishi!

Just look at Yu Shishi's behavior: offering discounts to Jiang Jin, offering to buy houses for Jiang Jianye and his wife.
What kind of behavior was this? Total simpery!

Yet Yu Shishi was the young heiress of Yu's Real Estate and an absolute stunner; she surely had no shortage of excellent suitors around her. There was simply no need for her to pursue Jiang Jin in such a manner.

So the question arose: why was she acting so servile toward Jiang Jin?
Could it be that she had some sort of illness and was desperate to marry herself off?

People fear nothing more than wild imaginations, and once the ball started rolling, all sorts of overthinking followed.

Only Jiang Jin knew that Yu Shishi was no simp at all—she simply wanted to poach Wu Qingya's man!

While the atmosphere was awkward, Yu Shishi looked at Yang Chuxue and said with an amused expression, "I forgot to ask, what does little sister Yang Chuxue's family do?"

"Ah, this..."

Yang Chuxue turned to look at Yang Jian.

Yang Jian hurriedly trotted over, handed out his business card, and said, "Miss Yu, I am Yang Jian, Yang Chuxue's father. This is my business card."

Yu Shishi nodded, took the business card, and glanced at it. "Wuyang City Xue'er Apparel Trading Co., Ltd.? Never heard of it!"

A flash of awkwardness crossed Yang Jian's face, but he still ingratiatingly smiled and said, "It's just a small business, it's only natural that Miss Yu hasn't heard of it."

The total assets under his name amounted to about 200 million, most of which were fixed assets, making him completely incomparable to a behemoth like the Yu family.

"Understood."

Yu Shishi nodded, took out her phone, and sent a voice message: "Help me check up on the dirt regarding Yang Chuxue, the daughter of the boss of Wuyang City Xue'er Apparel Trading Co., Ltd. Preferably concerning her private life. Hurry up."

Everyone's expressions changed drastically!

Yang Chuxue shrieked angrily, "What are you doing?"
As she spoke, she lunged forward to grab Yu Shishi's phone.

Yu Shishi hid her phone behind her back and taunted, "I'll do whatever I want. Is it any of your business?"

Knowing she was not someone to be trifled with, Yang Chuxue immediately turned to Jiang Jin and said with a wronged expression, "Brother Jiang Jin, look at her!"

Jiang Jin looked at Yu Shishi: "Miss Yu, casually prying into other people's privacy is wrong."

Yang Chuxue immediately shot a triumphant, highly provocative look at Yu Shishi with the tip of her brow.

Yu Shishi pouted, her chest heaving violently, looking as if she were about to erupt.

Across from them, Feng Tai drew a sharp breath and whispered, "I feel like I'm surfing right now."

Kenji Asou nodded and sighed, "Towering waves indeed!"

Jiang Jin continued, "However, Xiao Xue, you should also have confidence in yourself. As long as you haven't done anything wrong, what are you afraid of her investigating?"
"Besides, she's just the daughter of a wealthy family, not a law enforcement agency. She won't find out anything even if she investigates, so you really don't need to worry."

Yang Chuxue couldn't help frowning, muttering inwardly to herself: Why do I feel like Jiang Jin led me straight into a trap?

Yu Shishi chimed in with a sweet laugh, "No wonder you were able to handle Wu Qingya; that mouth of yours is truly too flexible!"

Jiang Jin felt like Yu Shishi was dropping innuendo, but he had no proof!

With the corners of her lips slightly upturned in a cunning smile, Yu Shishi continued, "However, this young lady has friends all over the country, and checking someone's dirt is still quite simple."

Saying this, Yu Shishi shot a provocative glance at Yang Chuxue with the tip of her brow.

The situation instantly reversed!

Kenji Asou's gaze flickered as he said playfully, "This woman is indeed interesting."

Seeing this, Feng Tai tentatively asked, "Is Mr. Asou interested in her?"

Asou countered, "Aren't you interested in her?"

Feng Tai smiled faintly, a gleam of shrewdness flashing in his eyes. "Naturally I am, but if Mr. Asou likes her, I certainly won't fight you for her."

Kenji Asou laughed. "You Dragon Kingdom people have an old saying: women are like clothes, while brothers are like limbs. Clothes can always be lent out for brothers to wear."

Feng Tai replied, "Very well, then I shall wait for the day when Mr. Asou grows tired of wearing her."

Though the two men deliberately lowered their voices to keep it from the others present, Jiang Jin's hearing was far beyond that of an ordinary person.

Immediately, Jiang Jin's gaze locked onto Kenji Asou like lightning.

Noticing this, Kenji Asou immediately met his gaze.

Where their gazes intersected, invisible sparks of lightning seemed to flash!

Behind him, an elderly man in a black samurai robe stepped forward, a murderous aura gathering around him.

Yu Shishi: "The investigation results came out this fast?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately drew everyone else's attention.
