Jin Muchen approached the dumbfounded Sean, then directly retrieved the Infiniti car keys from his pocket, while also raising his hand to pat his face.
"I will mail you the transfer certificate, and remember to sign it when it arrives!"
Sean stood dumbfounded, his mouth agape as if it could swallow an ostrich egg.
He could hardly believe what had just happened before his eyes: the muscular Matt, after just one encounter, was brought down by Jin Muchen.
It was swift and decisive, just like a move from a kung fu movie. But how was this possible?
"Yes, you lad, don't play dumb. Let me remind you, when you made that bet with Mr. Jin just now, we all heard it! Let me remind you again, verbal agreements are legally protected in the United States. If you refuse to transfer the vehicle or go back on your word, be prepared to receive a lawsuit!"
Harvey and Mike, who seemed to appear out of nowhere, were looking at Jin Muchen with an almost god-like admiration in their eyes.
As Sean and Jin Muchen made the bet earlier, Marling had been standing beside them the whole time, her feelings complex, but she hadn't said much.
After Jin Muchen won the bet, she realized how familiar yet unfamiliar he seemed, still the same person but with a completely changed temperament. There seemed to be many differences, but she couldn't pinpoint exactly what they were.
Yet, a sense of bitterness mixed with some regret, along with many inexplicable emotions, surged in her heart.
Watching Marling, who was gazing at Jin Muchen with affection, Sean felt like he was about to explode with anger.
"Don't worry, I'm not someone who goes back on his word. I can afford to lose a car!"
With that, he fiercely grabbed Marling's wrist and pushed through the crowd, casting a menacing glare back at Jin Muchen, as if to say, "Kid, this isn't over!"
However, Harvey stepped forward and stole the spotlight, raising his fruit phone with the recording function on.
"I recorded what you just said! You've already admitted it yourself, so don't think about backing out!"
Sean's face turned as red as a beet, and without looking back, he fled in embarrassment. Today, he lost not only the game but also his dignity. He had never felt so embarrassed before and had no desire to linger in this place for another moment.
Meanwhile, Jin Muchen watched as Sean and Marling disappeared into the distance, feeling a sense of relief washing over him, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his heart.
Turning to the two of them, before he could say anything, a familiar fragrance of locust flowers wafted over, followed by a voluptuous figure crashing into his arms.
"Honey, you're amazing! That move just now was so cool!"
Candice's blue eyes sparkled with excitement, her cheeks flushed with excitement. The scene had left a profound impact on her.
Previously, she had witnessed Jin Muchen's prowess, but the first time was at the Red Pony, although she had just been bullied by Joey and felt dizzy. The second time was in the back alley of Flushing's Mian Street, but it was dark, so she couldn't see clearly either time.
Today, she truly saw Jin Muchen's actions for the first time, the way he effortlessly dodged and countered, it was so graceful, so cool.
Then that jerk, Matt, was knocked unconscious, and afterward, he even refused Helen. In Columbia, no guy had ever truly rejected Helen's invitation before, and he was the first one!
All of this overwhelmed Candice, releasing the pent-up frustration in her heart. Seeing Matt knocked down and Helen rejected by Jin Muchen, all the depression she had been feeling for days dissipated.
And at this moment, Jin Muchen had firmly planted himself in her heart, taking root and becoming vividly clear. What she wanted most right now was to be by his side and keep those other covetous eyes away.
Jin Muchen looked down at Candice in his arms, intending to thank her, but before he could speak, her locust flower-scented lips had already kissed him.
Her lips were soft, and then a slick tongue pried open his teeth. Jin Muchen felt his head buzzing, and suddenly, it felt like the whole world had disappeared, leaving only the two of them.
They entwined together, immediately drawing whistles and screams from those around them.
The girls screamed, looking at Candice with resentment and jealousy. Her actions clearly declared her sovereignty over Jin Muchen. This man was hers, so everyone else should stop coveting.
Hmph! Little vixen, you're dreaming. The girls applauded and cheered, but deep down, they felt resentful and envious.
And the boys whistled and cheered, unable to help but feel envy and jealousy. Candice was one of the most beautiful sights in the school, the object of many boys' fantasies at night, and now this thorny rose had been plucked by this guy. How could they not feel envious and jealous?
Fortunately, Helen was left behind by this guy. If he had chosen Helen just now, who knows how many people would have cursed his ancestors in private!
As they parted lips, Jin Muchen took a deep breath and looked down at Candice in his arms. Her face was flushed, as if drunk, her body soft and limp, like a noodle.
"Oh my God! You're really a kissing expert! You've kissed me to the point where I can't move!"
Candice's big watery eyes looked up at him, leaning against his chest and speaking sweet nothings, while Jin Muchen chuckled mischievously.
"My lung capacity still can't match yours. Looks like I need more practice!"
Candice giggled, lightly tapping his shoulder.
"Cough..."
Two unwelcome third wheels interjected at an inappropriate moment.
"Hey! You two, enough already. I say, mate, you just won a car, shouldn't you thank us?"
Harvey and Mike stood by, looking at the sweet couple with bitter faces.
"Haha, no problem, let's find a place to continue drinking!"
Jin Muchen waved his hand generously at the two, saying, "If it weren't for you two, I couldn't guarantee whether that guy, Sean, would go back on his word. Winning a car from him owes a lot to you two, not to mention you're both law students. It's good to have friends like you."
Sean's car was an Infiniti QX50, a decent urban SUV, and it looked brand new, with mileage of less than two thousand miles. Jin Muchen had truly struck gold with this bet.
This car is quite popular in the United States, sturdy and durable, and of good quality. It's one of the favorite models of the upper-middle class, with new cars selling for around thirty to forty thousand dollars.
Now, without spending a penny, Jin Muchen had obtained it, thanks to Harvey and Mike. They deserved credit for this.
Jin Muchen planned to treat these two to a good meal, but by this time, it was late. After some discussion, Harvey led them to their residence.
Both of them had brought girls with them, and luckily, they hadn't driven here, so
they could help Candice drive her Mercury. And of course, Candice would sit next to Jin Muchen, enjoying the ride in Jin Muchen's new car!
Luxury car and beautiful girl, even though it was midnight on the streets of New York, which were deserted, he didn't feel lonely at all. The emptiness in his heart after Marling left was finally filled at this moment.
Just a few months ago, he wouldn't have dared to believe that one of the most beautiful roses in Columbia would now be sitting by his side, looking at him with admiration and becoming his girlfriend!
And now, this dreamlike scene had become a reality!
Candice sat in the passenger seat, smiling sweetly at Jin Muchen, then put her hand on the gear lever. At this moment, Jin Muchen felt like he had won the whole world!
Harvey and Mike led the way, but as they crossed the bridge and arrived at Long Island, Jin Muchen vaguely sensed that these two were definitely extraordinary individuals.
Long Island is a famous gathering place for the wealthy in New York. If you don't have a few million dollars, you can't even think about living here.
Their residence was a seaside mansion, which must be worth several million just based on its location and size alone. This mansion was Harvey's father's vacation home.
There was plenty of food in the villa's freezer, and after a night of revelry, everyone was hungry.
The two girls Harvey brought back went to prepare a late-night snack for them.
Meanwhile, he, Mike, Jin Muchen, and Candice took their beers to the terrace outside the villa, listening to the sound of the waves while chatting and drinking.
At first, they weren't very familiar with each other, but being young people, and especially now that Harvey and Mike, after witnessing Jin Muchen's impressive performance, had idolized him, they quickly became acquainted.
"Haha, I really want to see Matt's face when he wakes up."
After taking a big sip of wine, Harvey laughed and said, "Who knows how he'll show his face at Columbia in the future?"
Mike continued, "Did you know? Buddy, at last year's Christmas dance, I was having a good time with Barbara, but just because of Matt's interference, I ended up being a laughingstock..."
Mike recalled the bitterness of last year's incident, and even mentioning it made him choke up, clearly hating Matt's guts.
His good buddy Harvey patted him on the shoulder, "It's all in the past, Mike. Didn't you see his miserable state today? He's even more embarrassing now than you were back then!"
"Yeah! We owe a lot to you, mate!"
The two raised their glasses towards Jin Muchen, who also raised his in return.
