Chapter 116: Chapter 115 See You Again

At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, at the north gate of Haidong University.Gu Yu, Lin Xinyue, and the three guys from the dormitory stood by the roadside waiting for a car.

"I should be fine wearing this, right? I'm just going to have a look anyway."

Gu Yu tugged at his cheap leisure suit jacket—a generic grey-black hue, with broad pleats at the shoulders and elbows.

It was a casual suit he had bought for an in-school business etiquette competition last year, costing him nearly two hundred bucks.

He had worn it for less than a week before tossing it into the wardrobe.

He had not expected it to come in handy today.

Not just him, Boss Pu and the others were dressed the same way, all in identical cheap grey suits, since the competition was entered as dorm rooms, so they bought four sets of the same style.

At the time, they even got an 8.8% discount!

"There's a problem! But there's no solution now, we're about to head out, so let's just go with it!"

Lin Xinyue helplessly observed the four men in front of her, all clad in knockoff cheap suits that looked identical.

The brand of the suit was called YOUFAOR, the genuine should be YOUNGOR, and who knows where they dug these up from some roadside clothing stall.

But compared to not wearing a suit to an investment seminar, it was still more appropriate to wear one.

"Your beige suit looks pretty high-end, what brand is it? How come I don't recognize it?"

Gu Yu gently pinched a corner of Lin Xinyue's suit jacket, which felt rather soft, unlike his own cheap suit, which was as hard as coarse fabric.

The key was that his infallible Golden Eyes suddenly became ineffective, completely unable to discern the brand and value of the suit.

"Of course, you can't tell! It's a custom suit, made of pure wool, and it cost five thousand!"

Lin Xinyue gently brushed off Gu Yu's hands, which were fiddling around on her clothing.

Gu Yu suddenly understood.

It was a custom suit, no wonder his Golden Eyes couldn't make it out.

The Golden Eyes could only recognize branded off-the-rack products, not the specifics of these custom items, after all, these things don't remain unchanged for hundreds of years like antiques. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Custom items often involve too many variables, so it's normal for the Golden Eyes to fail.

This also served as a reminder to Gu Yu that he shouldn't rely too much on the skills granted by the system; he needed to have his own judgment as well.

Among the smoky whirlwind stirred up by the passing vehicles, the five of them quietly waited for a taxi.

A thought of buying a car surfaced in Gu Yu's mind once again.

Otherwise, having to take a taxi every time he went out was really too much of a hassle.

Besides, he had already discussed with Boss Pu and the others about moving out of the university into a student apartment near West Gate in time.

He could park the car outside, and it would be much more convenient to go anywhere then.

In case of an emergency, it would come in very handy.

As he watched the distant taxis gradually approach, Gu Yu moved the idea of owning his first car up on his agenda.

Conveniently, two cars stopped in front of them, one after the other. Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue got into the front one, while Boss Pu and the others took the one behind.

Just as Gu Yu sat down in the passenger seat and fastened his seatbelt, the center console suddenly played some music that sounded familiar.

"I got my sights set on you and I'm ready to aim."

"I have a heart that will never be tamed."

Gu Yu listened to "See You Again" and looked up at the driver.

Good lord! The familiar polarized sunglasses! The familiar middle-aged uncle!

Wasn't this the same driver who had last time taken him and Boss Pu to experience the thrill of a street race in the city?

Four minutes and fifty-three seconds over five kilometers! And he said that was an insult to his driving skills!

The uncle caught his eye and there was confusion in his look. He glanced down at Gu Yu from above the rim of his polarized glasses and immediately had a realization.

"Oh! Young man, it's you again? What, are you in a hurry this time too?"

The driver uncle had a smiling face, not expecting to run into this young man a second time.

The reason he recognized him was that the young man's good looks were hard to forget, much more handsome than most celebrities.

The song playing now was indeed quite fitting—truly a See You Again moment!

"No rush, no rush! Please drive slowly!"

Gu Yu hurriedly waved his hands with an embarrassed smile.

He was joking; he definitely did not want to experience the feeling of a life-and-death rush again!

On the congested roads of Modu City, going just one kilometer a minute could be more thrilling than flooring the gas pedal on the highway.

"Young man, how can you have no passion? Time is life!"

The taxi driver curled his lip but still slowly began to drive off in gear.

Little did he expect that Lin Xinyue, who had been sitting in the back seat without speaking up until now, not understanding the situation, suddenly spoke.

"Now it's five minutes past nine, and there are only twenty-five minutes until the meeting starts, with a distance of fifteen kilometers, we might not make it?"

She glanced at the time on her phone, a trace of worry appearing on her face.

Being late to this kind of meeting was not a good thing; it could cost you your reputation, and perhaps even affect investment opportunities.

The taxi driver heard this, and his thick eyebrows shot up.

"Not make it? That's impossible! As soon as you're in my car, you can delete the words 'not make it' from your dictionary!"

"Miss, fasten your seat belt! Sit tight, hold on, and get ready for takeoff!"

His hand was on the gear shift, and even the polarized sunglasses could not hide the confidence on his face.

"Don't..."

Gu Yu had no time to stop him.

What had been a leisurely accelerating taxi suddenly revved the engine, the familiar sound of tires screeching filled the air, and then the taxi shot forward like a bullet.

Gu Yu once again experienced a wave of top-tier g-force, so much so that the words he wanted to say were pushed back down his throat.

Lin Xinyue's head knocked against the back seat, and her face was a picture of stupefaction.

Had taxi drivers started to drive so wildly these days?

Treating a small car like a racing vehicle?

The taxi weaved and darted through the traffic, quickly and accurately slipping into any gap between cars, perfectly avoiding each camera's snap, even predicting the patterns and intervals of the traffic lights accurately.

Every time they reached a traffic light intersection, the red light immediately turned green!

Had it not been for the taxi driver's hands firmly on the steering wheel, Gu Yu would have thought he was a top-tier hacker controlling all the traffic signals in the streets they passed!

The uncle had an infuriatingly intimate knowledge of the traffic in this area!

Even navigation apps probably weren't as effective as him!

"Master, I have three friends following in another taxi. They won't lose us, will they?"

Gu Yu calmed down and asked worriedly.

He hadn't told Boss Pu where they were meeting up!

The taxi driver didn't even glance at him, casually replying, "Don't worry! The one behind is my brother; his skills are even better than mine."

"We both came from the same racing team."

Gu Yu's eyes widened, and he quickly looked into the rearview mirror. Sure enough, he saw another taxi clinging tightly to their back!

"The last turn is coming up!"

"Damn! My brother overtook me!"

At that moment, the taxi driver sharply turned the wheel to the left at the intersection, as his brother's taxi accelerated around the bend and overtook them!

...

Once again, covering a kilometer a minute, it took less than fifteen minutes for Gu Yu to arrive under the Shengda Game Building.

Helping Lin Xinyue out of the car, Gu Yu turned to look at Boss Pu and the others.

He saw Yu Shutong hugging a trash can, violently vomiting...

"Young man, until next time!"

The taxi driver waved at him, then together with his brother's car, they drove off leaving nothing but dust behind!

"Next time... I'm definitely buying a car!"

Watching the orange-yellow back of the taxi, Gu Yu made up his mind this time!

"It's so tall! Worthy of the headquarters of Shengda Game!"

Boss Pu suddenly exclaimed from the side.

Gu Yu followed his gaze and looked up to see a towering building, like a straight monument, standing tall before them.

This was the Shengda Game Building!
