Chapter 926: Offer His All. Ge Xuan’s Shock
Ge Xuan had always thought that Yun Jian was joking about asking Corinton to modify him a Maserati sports car. He had even cast the matter to the back of his head already. After all, Yun Jian was so young. Perhaps she was filled with youthful gusto. Ge Xuan did not take what she said seriously.
When he saw Corinton walking toward him behind Yun Jian, however, he was completely baffled.
“Hiya! Nice to meet you, young man!” While Ge Xuan stared at Corinton in shock, the latter put up a hand to greet him like a playful child.
“N-nice meeting you, M-Mr. Corinton!” Ge Xuan was delightfully surprised. He had actually met Corinton and the man greeted him!
Mr. Corinton was an elite engineer in the world. Forget inviting him all the way from Country M, Corinton would not budge even if international personages personally went to his house to ask him for favors. To ask him to help modify a sports car for someone else was basically non-existent.
This explained Ge Xuan’s shock the moment he saw Corinton. He was flabbergasted. It was like meeting his idol. Ge Xuan froze on the spot, unable to react to the situation.
“Old man, it isn’t too hard for you to help my brother modify a Maserati sports car, yeah?” Yun Jian walked next to Si Yi, so she had one hand holding the latter when she turned to ask Corinton.
Ge Xuan nearly squeaked in surprise when he heard Yun Jian calling Corinton “old man”.
Look at Corinton’s status! He was one of the top—if not the top presence in the global scene. People in the industry had only dared addressed him with “Mr.” or “master” but Yun Jian… she was calling Corinton “old man” so frankly?
Ge Xuan also noticed that she had actually called him her… brother? It made him feel a drop of familial warmth at once.
“Just a Maserati? No way. I’ll ask my a.s.sistant to send the limited edition Bugatti Veyron that I’ve just modified from my warehouse tomorrow!” Corinton offered generously.
It seemed like he was willing to do anything as long as Yun Jian took him as her disciple.
Ge Xuan who heard it was even more stunned. Did people not say that Corinton was a peculiar man? Ge Xuan had seen photos and brief introduction of him in international publications before this and it was said that Corinton was an eccentric person.
It made sense. How could there be someone like Corinton who depended on his mood to modify cars for someone even if you paid him? However, why was the rumored oddball Corinton so nice and docile in front of Yun Jian? He had even pattered behind Yun Jian claiming that modifying a Maserati was not enough and offered to send the newest sports car model he had just modified over?
Despite his astonishment, Ge Xuan was inwardly grateful to Yun Jian. He could finally own a new sports car that Mr. Corinton had specifically modified—a new car!
Just as Ge Xuan grinned, he heard Corinton speaking again.
“So S, are you taking me as your disciple? If you take me in, I’ll send you all the sports cars I have in my lab. You can take all my awards and certs too, no problem. I’ll give you anything you want!” Corinton pestered Yun Jian.
Ge Xuan’s smile froze when he heard what the man said. Mr. Corinton who he admired the most was pleading Yun Jian to be his master? W-what was going on?
