Stephen smiled as well.
After all, before his accident, Stephen had been quite humorous.
As long as he was not performing surgery or in front of outsiders, he even loved to laugh.
It was only after becoming the Sorcerer Supreme that he became nothing but humorless.
Think about it: he was only in his twenties or thirties, drove a Lamborghini, and had handsome looks, skill, and prestige. Of course he was interested in beautiful women too.
Su Yi was no exception either.
They were both men.
What was there to pretend about?
After deciding on their itinerary.
Stephen perked up. He got up and poured himself a glass of water.
Then he looked around Su Yi's office, which was practically an award room.
Inside Su Yi's not-so-large office, all kinds of luxurious decorations, furniture, and collectibles were everywhere!
If they were all sold off, their total value would probably reach tens of millions of dollars!
But Su Yi had not bought a single one of them. They had all been gifts from clients!
That alone showed.
Just how much influence and renown Su Yi possessed in the psychological counseling industry!
This was also one of the reasons Stephen admired Su Yi and wanted to befriend him.
He was still young, yet he had achieved things that others could spend their entire lives unable to even look up at!
Ahem, just like him.
..
P.S.: Ahem, everyone should be able to tell from the system that this book leans more toward daily life and interactions with beauties, so... Writing a new book isn't easy!!! I humbly beg all you handsome readers to send some flowers, rating votes, monthly votes, or comments for support. Many thanks—even just typing a 1 in the comments would help!!!
By the time they were done, it was five in the afternoon.
Su Yi silently said in his heart, "Clock In."
Clock-in successful. Reward obtained: Super Explosive Popping Candy x10 packs!
"..."
He was used to it.
The next moment.
With a click from the door lock, Su Yi and Stephen appeared outside the office together.
Before taking the elevator down to the underground parking garage.
Stephen turned back to look at the office door, then checked the time on his watch.
"Are you always this punctual?"
"Of course." Su Yi glanced at him. "Even if the Earth were destroyed at four thirty, I would still do my best to get off work on time at five."
Stephen raised an eyebrow.
"Then how would you stay alive for another half hour?"
Ding~
Just then, the elevator doors opened.
Su Yi walked in and turned to look at Stephen.
"By relying on my willpower to never leave early or arrive late."
"..."
Vroom! Vrooom! Vroom!
Accompanied by the roar of an engine.
A black Lamborghini drove out of the underground garage beneath North Tower.
Then sped straight toward the banquet venue.
The car belonged to Stephen.
As one of the world's top surgeons.
And an American doctor at that.
Buying a Lamborghini was easy for Stephen.
As long as you had ability.
You could earn dollars in this land of freedom.
No matter whether it was good or bad.
The reason Su Yi had not driven his own car.
Was because people wanted a car when they did not have one, but once they had one, they became too lazy to drive.
Especially when Su Yi's current assets could buy any mass-produced car in the world...
He wanted to drive even less!
The Lamborghini cruised smoothly down the road without obstruction.
Stephen held the steering wheel with his right hand, resting his left arm against the car window as he said to Su Yi.
"If you don't drive your Ferrari soon, the dust on it will be thicker than pizza."
Wearing sunglasses, Su Yi lazily rested his head against the seat and complained.
"First, my car is parked in a VIP spot, and someone wipes it clean every day."
"Second, can you modify your seats? They're way too uncomfortable."
Honestly.
Lamborghini seats really were not that comfortable.
But their ergonomics were still acceptable.
They made you feel incredibly competitive.
Faced with Su Yi's question, Stephen shook his head.
"No, I won't modify it."
"If I did, it would be like insisting on adding a passenger seat and rear foot pegs to a racing motorcycle, or putting air conditioning in an F1 car."
Fine, it seemed Stephen really did understand sports cars.
Because if it was comfortable to sit in, it would not be called a sports car.
In the eyes of sports car designers, performance determined everything. If it did not put your body through hell, could it still be called a sports car?
And so.
Stephen drove his Lamborghini, carrying Su Yi along with a roaring vroom vroom vroom.
But all of a sudden.
A breaking news report sounded through the car's smart system.
"At 5:20 p.m. New York time, the Avengers are engaged in war with an unidentified terrorist force in Sokovia."
"Including Iron Man and Captain America."
"The conflict has caused Sokovia to become an island and continue rising into the air. It is now thousands of meters above the ground."
"How will the Avengers handle this crisis?"
"And how will they ensure the safety of local residents' property?"
Good lord.
The news first named two major famous figures.
Then started asking questions.
And the question was about property?
What about lives?
Were they not going to ask about lives?
And wasn't this plot from Age of Ultron?
