Chapter 220 He Said "7 Brothers"
After breakfast, the group took the elevator to the basement.
Shen Ran and Shen Xinxing got into Shen Xinhuai's car, along with Shen Xinjie and Shen Xinjin. They prepared to take a taxi to the entrance of the community to go to their workplace.
Shen Xingxiu has been working in the entertainment industry for many years, and has always been looking forward to having a good role to play. In order to realize his dream, he took the driving test a long time ago, for fear that he would not be able to drive if he was required to act in a scene.
Fortunately, I brought my driver's license with me when I moved last night.
It's just that I haven't driven for a while, so I was a little nervous after getting in the car.
Especially with my fifth and sixth brothers sitting in the back.
He hesitated and started the car but didn't dare to step on the accelerator.
"Fifth brother, sixth brother, why don't we...walk out together to get a taxi? I remember the way, it's not far. If you're worried that the basement is not convenient, we can go home and take the elevator to the first floor and go out through the front door."
Shen Xingchen: “…”
Shen Xingjian: “…”
The two looked at the third brother and spoke at the same time.
"If you are not afraid of being embarrassed, we can do it."
Shen Xingxiu hesitated for a moment. He mustered up the courage to turn his head back, straightened it, and carefully stepped on the accelerator. He did successfully drive away from the spot, but the speed was... a little slow. Fortunately, no one urged him, and there were not many people in the basement. Slowly, he got a feel for it.
Shen Xingjian was so scared that he grabbed the handle above his head.
"Fifth brother, I think we should also go and get a driver's license. Otherwise, it would be a waste to keep the car that Su Mochen gave us in the garage."
Shen Xingchen nodded seriously.
He thinks so too.
But I feel it’s not possible.
"You need to take a test to get a driver's license, but even if we do, we'll probably be like our third brother and rarely drive."
Shen Xingjian didn't understand: "Don't we have a car now?"
Shen Xingchen sighed.
"I mean, even if we have a car, who are we? Are we worthy of driving such a nice car to work? We can just ride an electric bike."
"I'm just a small accountant in the company. I usually do some spreadsheets and documents, just like those clerks. I get a salary of more than 2,000 yuan a month. If I drive this car, the gas money will take up half of my salary. The remaining 1,000 yuan will be used for food and shopping, and there will be no money left for my parents."
"There is another very important point. Don't underestimate me in the company. I am just a nobody. That's because I don't have the capital to be high-profile."
"It would be different if my colleagues saw me driving this luxury car."
"Fawning, envy, and jealousy are all indispensable. If you want to live in peace, you should maintain the status quo. Either you are as poor as them, or poorer than them. In short, you can't live better than them."
“The human heart is the most unpredictable.”
"Nothing can lead to a lot of trouble."
Shen Xingxiu, who was driving, hesitated. Should he drive the car farther away when he got off?
After hearing this, Shen Xingjian no longer dared to talk about driving to work.
But he felt that what Fifth Brother said was too scary.
"Isn't that a bit exaggerated? What kind of car we drive is our business. What does it have to do with them?"
Shen Xingchen glanced at the innocent Shen Xingjian.
"Since I joined the company, I have investigated the background, personality, hobbies, etc. of each of my colleagues. I did not do anything to help them, but to learn more about them and avoid any problems."
“So, I understand people’s hearts better than you do.”
"Listen to me, don't drive during work hours, but after get off work, you can drive wherever you want."
Shen Xingjian listened and nodded.
Shen Xingxiu swallowed with some fear.
Hesitant: "Fifth brother, after I drop you off, should I drive to the crew or not?"
Shen Xingchen: "That depends on you, Third Brother."
He analyzed seriously: "The entertainment industry is different from our ordinary jobs. It is the most realistic place, full of decadence and extravagance, and you can see it at any time."
"If you drive there and someone happens to see you, it could have a good effect. If word gets out to the director, he'll think you're the son of a wealthy family and give you a good role. Or he might think you... well, found a rich woman with your pretty face and body, and you drive either the rich woman's car or a car given to you by a rich woman."
"You should be very clear about this, Third Brother. This kind of thing does happen in the entertainment industry."
"So it's hard to say. You need to think it through yourself, Third Brother."
Shen Xingxiu: “…” It’s so fucking complicated!

After the seven brothers of the Shen family left, Shen Hongyi also planned to go to work, but was stopped by Su Mochen.
Su Mochen: "Uncle Shen, do you want to drive to work? It's more convenient this way."
"Nanfeng happens to be free, so he can take you to a more open place for a drive. You have a driver's license, and you used to drive to school every day. I believe you can find the feeling you had back then just by driving a few laps."
Shen Hongyi was a little moved: "Can I?"
Su Mochen encouraged: "Of course!"
Shen Hongyi: "My driver's license has expired a long time ago. I need to apply for a new one."
Su Mochen continued to encourage: "Don't worry about this. I will arrange all the procedures for you. Let Nanfeng take you for a couple of laps. Once you are familiar with it, you can go directly to get the certificate."
Shen Hongyi felt it was too simple.
But he couldn't resist the temptation: "Then I'll try? Will it be too much trouble for Nanfeng?"
Su Mochen explained: "No. I gave him a day off, so he just needs to rest. All the time today belongs to you."
Shen Hongyi looked at Nanfeng uncertainly.
Nan Feng, who was forced to take a holiday but was not given one, tried to keep smiling: "It is my honor to teach Uncle Shen how to drive."
Shen Hongyi clapped his thigh happily.
"Then I'll try! Thank you, Xiaochen and Nanfeng."
Su Mochen gave Nanfeng a look.
Nanfeng spoke immediately.
"Uncle Shen, let's go now."
"Go get the key. I'll wait for you here."
"You can take half a day off first, and maybe you can drive to work in the afternoon."
Shen Hongyi: "Go now? Isn't that too fast?"
When Bai Tinghe heard this, she pulled Shen Hongyi up from the sofa.
"Hubby, what a great opportunity this is, what are you waiting for?"
"We are the ones who are bothering Nanfeng and Xiaochen, not them. They are free now, so don't hesitate."
Shen Hongyi had no choice but to agree, took the car keys and went to the basement with Nanfeng.
Su Mochen and Bai Tinghe were the only ones left in the living room.
Bai Tinghe smiled and asked, "Xiaochen, why did you send uncle away? Do you have something to say to aunt?"
Su Mochen: "As expected of an aunt, you are so smart!"
He stood up with a smile, sat next to Bai Tinghe, and held her hand.
"Auntie, you know that my mother passed away when I was very young, so I felt very close to you when I saw you, as if my mother had never left me. I like you very, very much! Of course, I also like Uncle Shen and the seven brothers."
Bai Tinghe was overjoyed when she heard this.
I was so happy that I lost my mind and didn't notice that he was talking about 'seven brothers'.
