Chapter 92: A Sports Car Gift
Chapter 92
But Li Shaocheng was not receptive to the idea. "You\'ve already recorded so many episodes, and now you want to bring Mom and Dad in at the end? Do you think the online comments about me aren\'t bad enough already?"
Her sister lowered her gaze and said softly, "Alright, I\'ll stay with you to finish the recording." She also hoped that in the end, Li Shaocheng would let her go...
Meanwhile, Jing Yi and her three companions, who had finished their recording, had just brought Jing Beicheng and his wife home.
Jing Yi and Jing Zejun were chatting with Lin Ruiqing, while Jing Zeyou was in the study reporting on work matters to Jing Beicheng. Jing Zeqian had left early for Startrack to prepare for Jiang Miaomiao\'s celebration party.
"It\'s a cave system with splashing waterfalls, filled with stalactites and stalagmites. When you enter the cave, there are rock formations like waterfalls, and you can see the actual waterfall from a different perspective..."
Lin Ruiqing was telling the two girls about the wonders she had seen recently. Because both young women were so attentive, Lin Ruiqing spoke with great enthusiasm.
Soon after, Jing Beicheng and Jing Zeyou came downstairs. "Ruiqing, the people from the car show have arrived at the gate," Jing Beicheng said.
Jing Yi looked up, confused.
[Did they buy a car while on their trip?]
Lin Ruiqing smiled and took the hands of the two girls beside her. "The welcome gift for Yi has arrived. Let\'s go out and take a look together."
Jing Yi was even more surprised. "Welcome gift?"
[Haven\'t we known each other for several months already?]
As they walked, Lin Ruiqing explained, "When you first came to our home, we didn\'t have time to prepare a welcome gift for you. Now it\'s time to make up for that. As for Jun, she received hers when she first came to the Jing family."
Jing Yi looked at Jing Zejun in bewilderment, and she nodded with a smile.
Still confused, Jing Yi was led by Lin Ruiqing to the courtyard. A truck had already parked in the open space outside, slowly opening its cargo hold.
Inside was a black and red sports car, absolutely stunning. Jing Yi was even more perplexed.
Lin Ruiqing nodded with satisfaction at the cargo hold. She had specifically asked the car dealership to decorate it like a gift presentation, and they had done an excellent job.
"Your uncle and I bought this at a car show abroad. We know you like racing, but we don\'t know much about race cars ourselves. We remembered how much you liked Zeyou\'s sports car, so your uncle specifically asked a friend for advice before choosing this one. What was it called again, Beicheng?"
Lin Ruiqing had forgotten the car\'s name and turned to Jing Beicheng for help. He calmly replied, "It\'s the \'Ghost\' by Koenigsegg, a KR series hybrid supercar. The maximum power output is..."
While Jing Beicheng was detailing the car\'s specifications, Jing Yi\'s eyes were becoming increasingly red.
Jing Beicheng, who was in the middle of explaining the car\'s performance, noticed Jing Yi\'s unusual reaction and looked slightly panicked.
Lin Ruiqing glanced over, her expression turning anxious. "Yi, don\'t you like it?" Jing Yi shook her head quickly, her eyes brimming with tears, not wanting the couple to misunderstand.
[I just never imagined that one day I would receive a sports car as a gift...]
Jing Yi sniffled, her voice a bit muffled, "Auntie, Uncle, I love this gift very much." Lin Ruiqing wiped away the tears that had fallen on Jing Yi\'s cheeks, feeling a bit heartbroken. "Then why are you crying?"
Jing Yi looked at the cargo hold, still lit up and decorated with many ribbons, very exquisite.
"Auntie, don\'t you think racing is a dangerous hobby?" Lin Ruiqing thought for a moment before replying, "It is quite dangerous."
Before Jing Yi\'s eyes could dim, Lin Ruiqing continued, "But since you like it, you should know how to protect yourself." Her eyes were as warm as the winter sun as she said softly, "Concern and support are not mutually exclusive."
Jing Yi\'s tears fell even harder as she hugged Lin Ruiqing, crying quietly on her shoulder.
[I never thought there would be a day when someone would think I deserve to have this hobby.]
Beside them, Jing Zejun felt a lump in her throat and blinked hard to hold back her own tears.
Lin Ruiqing gently patted Jing Yi\'s back, a bittersweet feeling welling up inside her. "Your uncle and I hope we can be your support in anything you do."
[Waaah waaah waaah]
Jing Beicheng didn\'t know whether to laugh or cry. Now he not only had to listen to Jing Yi\'s audible crying but also her inner crying.
Still, as long as she liked it, that was what mattered.
"I was originally planning to give you \'Night\' as well..." Upon hearing \'Night\', Jing Yi stopped sniffling and looked at Jing Zeyou with teary eyes. "\'Night\'?!"
His lips curved into a gentle smile, his gaze soft. "You\'re the only one driving it anyway, so I was planning to just give it to you..."
Jing Yi became a bit anxious. "Why do you say \'was planning\'?"
Jing Zeyou nodded towards the new car, continuing to tease Jing Yi. "Don\'t you already have a new sports car now?"
"But that\'s from Auntie and Uncle..." Jing Yi\'s voice grew quieter, feeling a bit greedy herself, but this was \'Night\' they were talking about!
Lin Ruiqing laughed and glared playfully at Jing Zeyou. "Your big brother is just joking with you. If he said he\'d give it to you, then it\'s yours." Since when did he start teasing Jing Yi like Jing Zeqian?
Jing Yi\'s eyes sparkled, still rimmed with red, filled with surprise as she waited for Jing Zeyou\'s response.
Finally, he nodded.
Jing Yi rushed over and gave Jing Zeyou a big hug. "Thank you, Big Brother!" Jing Zeyou laughed and patted her back lightly. "Crying and laughing like that, you\'re still such a child."
Jing Yi smiled sheepishly and then clung to Lin Ruiqing\'s side again.
Lin Ruiqing patted her hand. "Go take a closer look at your gift."
Jing Yi nodded happily and ran over, pulling Jing Zejun along with her.
Now Jing Yi began to carefully admire the distinctive sports car.
Jing Beicheng and Lin Ruiqing had specifically chosen the red and black paint scheme.
The car\'s front face featured a square design, complemented by sharp, slender headlights. The scissor doors on both sides of the body were embedded like the portholes of a battleship.
With its delicate rear wing and low-slung body, the entire car\'s silhouette was as sleek and sharp as a warship.
Jing Zejun was also admiring the sports car. Although she wasn\'t particularly interested in sports cars, she still found this one beautiful.
"Jun, I\'ll take you for a ride tomorrow!" Jing Yi\'s eyes sparkled as she looked at Jing Zejun, then quickly returned her gaze to the sports car.
Jing Zejun smiled and said, "Alright."
Lin Ruiqing smiled at the two girls. "Beicheng, it looks like we made the right choice." Jing Beicheng\'s gaze softened. How could they not have made the right choice?
After the car show, they weren\'t satisfied with any of the exhibited models. So Jing Beicheng contacted some people, and finally managed to buy this car through a friend of a friend.
