The street next to the Pearl River Tower was packed with people, so finding Ye Yinan among the crowd was quite a challenge.
But it's easy to spot someone rich.
As soon as Shen Lang glanced around, his eyes were drawn to a striking black luxury car parked by the side of the road.
This imposing black car was quietly parked, and passersby couldn't help but stare in awe. Many even took out their phones to snap pictures.
After all, a Rolls-Royce Phantom, worth millions, really does turn heads.
Next to the Rolls-Royce Phantom stood a burly bodyguard in a suit and sunglasses, vigilantly scanning the crowd.
In the front passenger seat of the car, a young woman was pressed against the window, eagerly and anxiously watching the people passing by.
She was wearing a mask that covered most of her face, but even just her beautiful, glossy eyes gave off the impression that she was exceptionally pretty—like one of those breathtaking beauties.
"Oi!"
Shen Lang approached and greeted her, nodding towards the front passenger seat.
"Didn't we agree to keep it low-key? Don't tell me this car is your family's low-key ride."
"Shen Lang!"
Ye Yinan's eyes lit up with visible excitement.
She quickly opened the car door and dashed toward Shen Lang, her cheerful steps almost like a fan meeting their idol.
Shen Lang was taken aback by her sudden enthusiasm.
Ye Yinan was dressed quite simply today, in a white waist-cinching dress. Her long black hair fell in a waterfall over her shoulders, brushing her pale skin softly.
Her beauty was mostly hidden under the mask.
Otherwise, she looked like an ordinary girl in the crowd, except for her distinct aura of wealth, which set her apart from other girls.
Even just standing in front of Shen Lang, her lazy, cool demeanor gave off an undeniable air of privilege.
Money really can change a person's vibe.
And being a wealthy heiress from birth, she had that distinctive, distant aura that made people hesitant to get too close.
"Hold on a sec!"
The bodyguard instinctively tried to keep them apart and gave Shen Lang a warning look. "Miss, is this your friend?"
"Yes, that's right."
Ye Yinan replied excitedly, and the bodyguard's expression softened immediately.
"Mr. Shen, where are you taking our miss? I need to report back to the chairman."
Shen Lang replied honestly, "We're heading to Hengdian for some fun."
"Hengdian? What exactly will you be doing there? When will you be back? Where should I pick her up? And what exactly do you do?"
"Seriously, are you checking my ID or something? Are you coming or not?"
Shen Lang frowned at Ye Yinan.
Ye Yinan quickly remembered Shen Lang's wish to keep things low-profile from yesterday and ordered her subordinate decisively.
"Alright, just go back for now. I'll call you when I'm done, and don't follow us."
"But miss, the chairman said..."
"There's no 'buts.' Just go."
Ye Yinan's voice grew a bit cold. Though she was usually very patient and calm, she was uncharacteristically impatient in this situation.
"Okay, just message me when you're done."
The bodyguard obediently agreed, taking a last look back before returning to the Rolls-Royce Phantom and driving off slowly.
"So this is a Rolls-Royce Phantom?"
Shen Lang looked at the sleek black rear of the car with interest. "Gotta say, it does look pretty cool. How much does it cost?"
Ye Yinan was eyeing Shen Lang from head to toe.
"I don't know. That's never been something I think about."
Hearing this, Ye Yinan became intrigued. "Do you want one? I could have my bodyguard bring it back and transfer ownership to you."
"Seriously, can we just have a normal conversation? Stop with the gift-giving stuff."
Shen Lang was amused by her offer. "Besides, I'm not into second-hand cars."
"Hmm…"
Ye Yinan thought for a moment, then raised a slender finger. "How about I buy a new one for you instead?"
"Uh… you…"
Shen Lang was tempted by her offer, but he tried to stay composed.
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Ye Yinan blinked her clear eyes, looking at Shen Lang with innocent curiosity.
Shen Lang, finding her reaction amusing, laughed and said, "Haha, forget it. Let's just go. Time to hit the parking lot."
"Okay."
They went to the parking lot and got into the BMW M8.
Shen Lang, curious, asked Ye Yinan, who was still wearing the black mask, "Are you planning to keep the mask on all the time?"
"My bodyguard said it's better to wear it to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Ye Yinan answered the question before asking, "Do you want me to take it off?"
"Up to you."
Shen Lang started the car. "But wouldn't it be better to have a face-to-face chat? Doesn't it feel more like we're friends?"
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Ye Yinan didn't hesitate, removing the black mask to reveal her exquisitely sculpted face.
Just one look at her stunning beauty left Shen Lang stunned and his heart fluttering a bit.
Ye Yinan's face was pale, with a perfect oval shape, a high nose, and lips slightly curved into a barely perceptible smile, suggesting she was in a good mood.
Her beauty was undeniably a step above any girl Shen Lang had ever met.
If Su Lexuan and Li Liusi had scores of 9.7, Ye Yinan would be a solid 9.9.
"What's up?"
Seeing Shen Lang looking a bit dazed, Ye Yinan glanced out the window in curiosity.
"You're really pretty."
Shen Lang nodded approvingly, then started the car.
"I know."
Ye Yinan responded with a hint of pride. "A lot of people say that."
