Chapter 38 You're such a bastard

"Huh? That's it?"

Nicole Kidman looked at Cao Kun with disbelief.

She thought Cao Kun was going to do *that* to her, but instead, he simply held one of her hands.

At that moment, wisps of white smoke rose from Cao Kun's head, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Don't speak." Cao Kun said in a low voice, closed his eyes, and circulated the Yin-Yang Creation Technique, allowing a trace of evil energy to circulate in Nicole's body and adjust her Yin-Yang balance.

Nicole Kidman dared not utter another sound, but simply sat there quietly, afraid of disturbing Cao Kun.

Nearly an hour later, Cao Kun finally withdrew his hand: "That's enough. You can go and check your neck."

Nicole Kidman immediately went into the restroom.

Soon, her surprised voice rang out: "It's really gone, it's amazing!"

Cao Kun raised his voice and asked, "Haven't you noticed any other changes in your body?"

Nicole Kidman emerged from the restroom with a look of shock on her face: "I feel like my body is full of energy again, my skin is better, and I feel like I'm younger."

I've never felt this good before, wow, how did you do it?

Cao Kun: "Your 300,000 yuan was well spent."

Nicole Kidman's surprise vanished instantly: "So, you did that on purpose just to mess with me?"

Cao Kun: "That was just a small lesson. I respect your arrogance, but I don't like it when you're arrogant towards me."

Nicole Kidman glanced at the sweat on Cao Kun's forehead and his obvious fatigue, and she already knew why Cao Kun had been unwilling to help her in the first place.

This was also a huge burden for Cao Kun.

Reflecting on her earlier attitude, Nicole Kidman felt a rare sense of shame: "I'm sorry."

Cao Kun took a tissue and wiped his sweat: "For the sake of 300,000, I won't hold it against you."

Should I say thank you?

Nicole Kidman took out her checkbook and quickly filled in the number 300,000.

“I accept your gratitude,” Cao Kun said frankly.

Nicole Kidman smiled and handed the check to Cao Kun, who took it, glanced at it, and smiled with satisfaction.

He extended his hand to Nicole Kidman: "It's a pleasure working with you."

Nicole Kidman shook his hand, then instinctively adopted a commanding tone: "Put on your clothes and get me downstairs. I don't want to be bothered."

Cao Kun's face darkened, and he reached out to pinch Nicole Kidman's cheek, making her mouth into an "o" shape: "Watch your attitude. In front of me, you'd better put away your arrogance. You are not qualified to order me around."

However, for the sake of this check, I can see you downstairs.

Cao Kun loosened his grip, and Nicole Kidman's body involuntarily took a step back.

She wanted to get angry, but thinking of Cao Kun's methods, she hesitated.

Cao Kun stood up unhurriedly: "Let's go, Ms. Nicole Kidman."

Nicole Kidman immediately put on a mask and sunglasses, and followed Cao Kun out of the room.

The old apartment building's hallways had no natural light, only dim lighting that barely provided illumination.

Suddenly, several strange noises came from the rooms on both sides, startling Nicole Kidman so much that she instinctively reached out and grabbed Cao Kun's arm.

Cao Kun took the opportunity to put his arm around her waist, but found that her body was stiff, yet she did not let Cao Kun remove his hand.

In the filthy elevator, Nicole Kidman looked away from the walls with disgust, wrapped her arms around Cao Kun's arm, and leaned against him, making the two look like a couple deeply in love.

"You're a millionaire, why are you living in such a disgusting place?"

Nicole Kidman couldn't help but ask the question a second time.

Cao Kun: "This is my business, don't interfere."

Nicole Kidman opened her mouth, but didn't say anything.

As Cao Kun left the apartment, he spotted a small red Mercedes-Benz not far away.

He saw the car yesterday at Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruz's house and knew it must be the one Nicole Kidman drove over.

Luckily it was daytime; if it were nighttime, the car's windows would definitely have been smashed.

Nicole Kidman had Cao Kun drive her all the way to the little Mercedes.

Nicole Kidman opened the car door, got into the driver's seat, rolled down the window, and looked at Cao Kun: "Can I come see you again?"

Cao Kun asked, "Your problems are all gone, so what brings you here to me?"

Nicole Kidman: "Becoming younger."

Cao Kun: "I'm not interested in little girls."

Nicole Kidman's pretty face immediately turned frosty, and she resisted the urge to give him the middle finger: "Damn, you're a real bastard."

After saying that, she quickly started the engine, shifted gears, and drove away.

"Wait." Taking advantage of the car just starting and not yet going fast, Cao Kun chased after it and stopped it.

Nicole Kidman turned pale, thinking that Cao Kun was angry and about to hit her.

Based on their interaction just now, she was absolutely convinced that Cao Kun was capable of doing such a thing.

"What are you doing?" Nicole Kidman asked, her tone not too harsh.

Cao Kun pulled on the passenger door but couldn't open it: "Open the door."

Nicole Kidman hesitated for a moment before unlocking the car.

Cao Kun opened the door and sat in the passenger seat: "Mind if you take me to the car market?"

Hearing this request, Nicole Kidman felt relieved.

As she drove away, she asked, "What are you going there for?"

Cao Kun: "Buy a car."

Nicole Kidman immediately looked strange.

I just made $300,000 from my mom and I'm going to buy a car.

She felt as if she had given the car to Cao Kun.

This made Nicole Kidman, who was always proud and considered herself a socialite, feel strange.

More than half an hour later, the red Mercedes stopped outside a car market.

Nicole Kidman: "I won't go with you. Go in by yourself. I hope you find the car you want."

Cao Kun naturally wouldn't force her, so he got out of the car and waved to her as she left.

The car city brings together cars from various brands.

Almost every brand you can think of can be found here.

Not just new cars, but also used ones.

After looking around, Cao Kun found that, putting aside vehicle performance, the aesthetics of most cars from this period were in a transitional phase between retro and new designs.

Going back a few years, cars were almost all square-shaped.

A few years later, cars at that time were almost all rounded in shape.

Most cars available during this time period fall somewhere in between, which doesn't quite fit Cao Kun's aesthetic preferences.

Ultimately, Cao Kun bought a first-generation Dodge Challenger produced in 1977.

This thing has a retro design; it looks like a flying machine lying on the ground.

With its 7.2-liter eight-cylinder engine, stepping on the gas pedal makes it feel like a roaring monster.
