Chapter 44 Asakusa Masami, who loves cars
"Ah, me?"
After showing off her power in front of the Japanese, Xu Ruirui didn't forget to come over and explain the situation to Chen Jiang.
Chen Jiang was speechless. He had just been wondering why Xu Ruirui had suddenly thrown a tantrum, but how did the situation change so quickly, and now he was being asked to be her companion?
"Oh dear, I finally managed to find you two some time alone, you'd better seize this opportunity and snag this little Japanese woman!" For some reason, Xu Ruirui had immense confidence in Chen Jiang: "As long as you win her over, I'm confident I can find a way to get her a domestic contract with our company, and I'll give you a big bonus then!"
"No, sister-in-law, you trust me way too much! You think I'm a Casanova? I can't even speak Japanese!"
"Why do you care so much? It's free to try!"
Xu Ruirui didn't care about anything else and directly pulled Chen Jiang over, sending him to Asakusa Masami's side:
"He'll stay with you for now. If you need anything, just tell him."
Kotone Takada was too afraid to speak in front of Xu Ruirui, and Asakusa Maai could only nod cautiously to herself, replying in her still somewhat broken English:
"I...I understand..."
"Then I'll leave the person to you. Let's go." Seeing that Asakusa Masami had no objections, Xu Ruirui smiled, patted Chen Jiang's shoulder, and then immediately turned and walked away.
Please.
There was nothing else they could do but bow to Chen Jiang as well, and then quickly follow Xu Ruirui.
In just a few minutes, the once lively filming scene with twenty or thirty people was suddenly reduced to only Chen Jiang and Asakusa Masami.
Left with no other option, Chen Jiang could only look at the young model:
"Um... are you hungry?"
"I...I'm not hungry yet."
Asakusa Makoto already felt awkward, and when she heard Chen Jiang's question, she quickly put her hands in front of her and started shaking them.
But as luck would have it, her stomach rumbled the moment she said those words...
Chen Jiang subconsciously looked over and saw that the young model was blushing so much that her mask couldn't hide it. She quickly covered her stomach with her hands, embarrassed and unsure of what to say...
"Alright...looks like you're still hungry."
Chen Jiang sighed and glanced at the time: "They've gone out for a meal, and they probably won't be back for a while. Let me take you out to get something to eat first. It would be a problem if you got sick from hunger."
"Well... but if I go out without permission, won't your President Xu be angry?"
It's clear that Xu Ruirui's outburst had a very good effect. Even though it was obvious that she was really hungry, Asakusa Maai was a little scared and didn't dare to go out on her own.
But this was no problem for Chen Jiang. He shook his head and said indifferently:
"It's okay, she actually has a good temper. She probably just wanted to give you a hard time."
"Come on, I'll take you out. If you're really angry, come to me. What are you afraid of?"
With that, he walked outside by himself.
Asakusa Maai, still standing there, hesitated for a moment. She glanced around instinctively, only to find that there was no one there anymore. If Chen Jiang left, she would be all alone.
Without further hesitation, he quickly jogged to catch up with Chen Jiang, keeping his head down and following behind without saying a word.
"Hehe~~"
Hearing the voice, Chen Jiang turned around and saw the young model following behind him. He chuckled softly and asked:
"I heard that besides being a model, you're also a minor celebrity?"
Unexpectedly, Chen Jiang suddenly spoke to her, especially asking such a question. Asakusa Maai was stunned for a moment before realizing what was happening.
"Yes...yes...I'm a member of the girl group NMB46!"
"Nmb?" Chen Jiang was taken aback, then his expression turned strange. "What kind of lousy name is this?"
This was said in Chinese, so Asakusa Maai had no idea what Chen Jiang was saying.
However, he still sensed his attitude, so he asked with some doubt:
"What's wrong...? Do you know our group?"
"I don't know... I've never heard of it."
Chen Jiang shook his head without hesitation... He only recognized a few familiar faces among domestic celebrities, let alone Japanese ones.
However, he was planning to search on his phone later, at least to learn more about the details.
Asakusa's true love was directly hit, but she didn't dare to get angry. She could only awkwardly lower her head again, mentally conjuring up a little figure of Chen Jiang and starting to torment him:
"It's my fault for not keeping your secret from Marseille..."
Chen Jiang almost burst out laughing, but since they had already reached the parking lot, he didn't say anything more.
He glanced up and saw his Aston Martin. He had driven an Alphard with Zhang Jie to pick someone up from the airport, but Xu Ruirui had driven his car here. She had casually returned the keys to him during their conversation.
"This is my car, get in."
At this moment, Asakusa Masami was still repeatedly grabbing Chen Jiang and beating him up.
Upon hearing Chen Jiang's words, he instinctively walked to the passenger side and opened the car door, but just as he was about to sit down, he suddenly realized something was wrong:
"Huh?? Is this your car?"
"Um...my car."
Chen Jiang turned his head to look at her: "Is there a problem?"
Asakusa Maai was quite shocked because she had always dreamed of one day being able to buy an Aston Martin.
From joining the group to becoming a signed model, he worked hard for several years but still couldn't afford it. Now he just casually met someone... The key is that the other person is just a small employee. Does that mean that Dongda University student is already that rich?
She carefully sat down in the car, looking at the interior and the logo on the steering wheel, unable to suppress her doubts:
"But...this is an Aston Martin, right...I recognize the brand, it's a luxury car, isn't it?"
"You know Aston Martin?" Chen Jiang was a little surprised, but he immediately laughed: "It's not really a luxury car, just a means of transportation."
"The first country..."
Asakusa Masami's lips trembled slightly beneath her mask. She gave an awkward laugh and mentally kicked Chen Jiang a few more times.
Chen Jiang seemed to have sensed something and casually asked:
"Are you familiar with Aston Martin? Do you know what model this car is?"
"Of course I know... a 6.0-liter V12 naturally aspirated engine, producing a maximum power of 433 kilowatts and a peak torque of 630 Newton-meters, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, accelerating from 0-100 km/h in about 3.5 seconds, and reaching a top speed of 201 mph..."
Asakusa Masami is indeed quite knowledgeable; she has even memorized the data to the point of being able to recite a whole bunch of it off the top of her head.
But halfway through her sentence, she suddenly realized she might have said a bit too much and quickly stopped... After a two-second silence, she added:
"Um... I've only looked into it."
"You haven't really done your research..."
Chen Jiang couldn't help but look at her in amazement.
He didn't even know much about his own car, but this Japanese girl didn't just seem to know a little; she clearly knew a lot about cars... Seriously, it's a bit strange that a beautiful celebrity model's hobby is cars.
But if that were the case, then he would have a good topic to discuss, so Chen Jiang didn't expose him, but just smiled and asked casually:
"To be honest, I feel my car has quite a few shortcomings, especially the noise it makes... If I were to get a car in a similar price range, which one should I choose?"
Asakusa True Love is a little hesitant:
"this......"
