Chen Feng went to start his car, while Peng Qirui looked at his driver and said, "Drive this car back, both of us will take a taxi."
The middle-aged driver couldn't help but show a constipated expression upon hearing Peng Qirui's words.
He had heard what Chen Feng told Peng Qirui yesterday, as well as just now.
Initially, he didn't think much of it, but seeing Peng Qirui now frightened by Chen Feng's words into taking a taxi, he naturally felt scared too.
After all, he had experienced a life-and-death ordeal with Peng Qirui just yesterday.
But he was a full-ti driver, and it wouldn't be right to leave the car parked here indefinitely. If he didn't drive it back, who would?
Unable to refuse, he watched with a constipated look as Peng Qirui, together with his assistant, got into Chen Feng's car and drove quickly towards the exit.
With no other choice, the driver took a couple of deep breaths, cheered himself up, and then went over to the Bentley to get in.
Chen Feng drove Peng Qirui and his assistant out of the underground parking lot, then found a suitable spot to stop.
"President Peng, my apologies. I've got sothing to take care of tonight, so I can't personally take you back. Fortunately, there are plenty of taxis around here, or you could use a ride-hailing app; it's easy to get a ride."
Peng Qirui quickly replied with a smile, "No worries, there really are plenty of taxis here, I can just take one back. Thanks for the heads-up this ti; otherwise, I might have been unlucky again."
Chen Feng emphasized, "Like I said, it might not necessarily happen. My intuition is a bit mysterious, sotis it works, sotis it doesn't, so you don't have to fully trust it."
Peng Qirui smiled wryly, "For these sorts of things, it's better to believe them than not. After all, there's only one life."
At that mont, the car behind them honked impatiently, and Peng Qirui sensibly said, "I'll get off then, see you next ti."
"Alright, see you next ti."
Peng Qirui and his assistant opened the car doors and got out, bidding farewell to Chen Feng with a wave, watching him drive away.
"Brother Rui, do you really believe him?"
The assistant couldn't help but ask. He hadn't been with Peng Qirui at Dianchuang yesterday, and hadn't experienced the car accident with him.
As a result, he found Chen Feng's previous words quite unbelievable, even thinking Chen Feng was just ssing with his boss.
Peng Qirui retorted, "Didn't I just say it? It's better to believe it, since you only have one life."
Seeing his boss say this, the assistant knew further words would be futile and silently thought his boss was too timid.
As for Chen Feng, he no longer paid attention to Peng Qirui, driving straight back to his ho in Red Villa Bay.
By this ti, the two won were already back and had eaten.
Earlier, Chen Feng had briefly ntioned to them on WeChat that he was dining with soone outside.
They didn't ask much, but probably assud he was dining with so woman, like Lin Yujiao or Liu Ying.
Seeing him return so quickly, they were sowhat surprised.
However, being sensible, they didn't inquire further.
Chen Feng spent a mont watching TV with them, then chatted for a while about company matters, mainly the planning of several TV dramas.
Around eight o'clock, Chen Feng went upstairs for a shower.
After showering, he lay on the bed looking at his phone, which had several unread ssages.
Mostly from Guo ngyao, Jin Xinyan, and a few other won, which Chen Feng briefly checked and chose not to reply to as there was nothing important.
There were also complaints from Little Rou, who used him as a sounding board, complaining about her mother's taste in clothes instead of her control over her. Chen Feng chose to ignore it.
Surprisingly, yet expectedly, Peng Qirui had also sent him a ssage, starting with a few photos.
They depicted his Bentley having a minor collision and scrape with a rcedes, showing the car damage at the accident scene.
Finally, Peng Qirui added a sentence: [Amazing! Although not as severe as yesterday's crash, there was indeed an accident. I feel like I need to keep you by my side at all tis, or I won't dare leave the house.]
The ssage had been sent about half an hour ago, and after so thought, Chen Feng replied: [Your luck hasn't been the best lately.]
This ssage was barely sent when Peng Qirui quickly responded with a facepalm emoji, followed by a voice ssage: [Chairman Chen, tell honestly, are you really not into fortune-telling or sothing? It's really just a sixth sense?]
Chen Feng imdiately replied with a voice ssage: [It's really just a sixth sense. I'm not so charlatan fortune teller; we need to believe in science.]
[Can science explain two consecutive correct predictions?]
[Of course, it can. The sixth sense is real, many scientists have already proven it.]
[... I almost believed you.]
[Don't overthink it; you have to drive cars. Although the chance of two accidents in a row is small, it's not unheard of.]
[In any case, I'm not taking any chauffeured rides for the next few days.]
Chen Feng sent him a laughing-crying emoji.
Peng Qirui sent another voice ssage: [Younger Brother Chen, I really want to keep you by my side now, letting foresee danger in advance. Otherwise, I'll be anxious every ti I leave the house.]
Chen Feng texted: [I'm not a beautiful woman, so it's not right for you to think like that.]
Peng Qirui followed up with a laughing-crying emoji.
[Enough idle talk, I have sothing to do. Let's chat next ti.]
Chen Feng didn't feel like continuing the small talk with him.
[Wait, when do you think we can have dinner together again? Or you could simply co over to my place; I'll introduce you to my dad.]
Peng Qirui saying this clearly indicated he fully welcod Chen Feng as a friend and wished to deepen their relationship, otherwise, he wouldn't consider bringing Chen Feng to his house or introducing him to his father.
His father was the chairman of Da Yun Group, a conglorate worth at least over twenty billion yuan.
Unfortunately, Chen Feng wasn't interested in making connections with these business tycoons, so he sent a voice ssage, politely declining: [I'm busy with so personal matters recently, really don't have ti; maybe another ti. Thank you for your kind offer.]
Peng Qirui didn't expect Chen Feng to refuse, feeling a bit annoyed, but considering Chen Feng's close relationship with Tao Yaoyang and respect from venture capital magnates like Huo Jindong, he likely had so mysterious background, making him hesitant to offend.
Moreover, since two consecutive traffic accidents had confird Chen Feng's remarkable sixth sense, this exceptional ability alone was reason enough for Peng Qirui to maintain a good relationship with him.
As their wealth grew to a certain extent, mbers of the Peng Family showed reverence for the supernatural. The idea that the richer you are, the more superstitious you beco wasn't just talk.
The reason is simple: once you've amassed enormous wealth, your perspective on the world changes, and you learn of many worldly secrets unknown to ordinary people. Naturally, this leads to a respect for the heavens and gods and a belief in fate, such as paying great attention to feng shui, spending millions on the feng shui of their residence and family tombs, etc.
