I Am A Prodigy Chapter 358

The three of them chatted as they walked toward the exhibition.
The exhibition was held in a wide, open area. It was originally a huge race track with a circular runway. A big group of people surrounded the exhibit, talking to each other with outstretched necks as they tried to get a better look around them.
Xu Nan and Xu Wanqing hoped that Ye Lingchen could point out the flaws of the autonomous vehicle technology before the car starts up. They hoped that he could quickly fix it to avoid any issues from happening while on the road.
"Hold it right there!"
Just as the three of them entered the exhibit, the security guard raised his hand to block off Ye Lingchen.
"Don't you know who I am? This is my master. Get out of the way!" Xu Nan huffed with a serious look on her face.
"I'm sorry Miss Xu. Director Ouyang had given us specific orders to deny entry to anyone you bring along, especially your master," the guard apologized calmly.
"What's her deal?! Are you listening to her orders or mine? Get out of the way right now or you can just leave!" Xu Nan scoffed.
However, the security guard stood his ground. He replied calmly, "Chairman Xu had also given the order that Miss Xu would need Director Ouyang's permission before you're allowed to bring anyone in!"
Xu Nan's expression instantly turned ugly. At the same time, a frown crept onto Xu Wanqing as well. As for Ye Lingchen, he just stood there leisurely.
"Master, just wait a moment. I'll get someone for you." Xu Nan immediately took out her phone and called her father.
However, the familiar tap of high heels could be heard after a brief moment as Ouyang Qing appeared at the door. Her sharp gaze aimed directly at Ye Lingchen.

"Xu Nan, Xu Wanqing, I can't believe that both of you are so stubborn!" Ouyang Qing sneered, "You're both Chairman Xu's daughters. When will you ever contribute to the company?"
"On what grounds are you telling us that, Abbess Miejue? We're doing this for the company. It's your actions that are endangering the company!" Xu Nan retorted.
"Cousin, you have to believe us. This would affect our company's future. You should let Ye Lingchen in to point out the flaws first. After all, this technology doesn't allow for the slightest mistake," Xu Wanqing urged.
"Haha, let him in?" Ouyang Qing measured up Ye Lingchen with a queen-like condescending glare. "You may believe what this gigolo has to say, but I won't! If I let him in and he sabotages our vehicles, the losses will be beyond our calculations!"
As she finished her statement, she could not be bothered any further. She ordered with a simple wave. "Keep an eye on them. Do not let them in!"
Just as Ouyang Qing was about to leave, she heard a faint voice coming from behind her—
"Congratulations on missing your last chance. Since you didn't treasure it, so be it."
"Pfft!"
Ouyang Qing stopped in her tracks as she scoffed, "What a braggart."
"When the car is on its third lap, the autonomous driving system will lose control. The car will spin in place, then continue moving in reverse. Following that, it will veer off the runway. If you don't want to endanger others, I suggest you disperse the crowd as much as possible," Ye Lingchen stated calmly with a firm tone, as though the outcome was playing out right before him.
"Haha, what an alarmist!" Ouyang Qing raised her chin high, exposing her fair neck as she looked down at him. "Ever since I started my studies, I've tested 263 vehicles. Once it's confirmed, there's a 90 percent probability of it being successful on the first try! Over 150 of my experiments were award winners! What do you have?"

"I have nothing."
Ye Lingchen shrugged, then turned around to leave.
Ouyang Qing looked at Ye Lingchen's back as a smirk crept onto the corner of her lips. 'Too embarrassed to stay after being exposed by me?'
Meanwhile, Xu Nan quickly chased after Ye Lingchen. "Master, I'm sorry."
"It's fine." Ye Lingchen waved his hand. "Just send me home."
"Okay…"
Xu Nan nodded, then got in the car with Xu Wanqing.
Both of them wanted to persuade him, but stopped themselves. In the end, they could only let out a long sigh.
Ye Lingchen was already doing his best. They could not bear to ask more of him.
Meanwhile, the exhibit was bustling with activity. Countless reporters surrounded the race tracks, running their interviews, and recording. At the same time, a large number of people were doing live streams on the spot. An even bigger portion of people were just there after hearing the news.
In the center of the exhibit, Wanrong Automobile Group's higher-ups were all at the scene. Their faces were glowing as they were interviewed by the reporters.
Ouyang Qing was also being interviewed. Facing the camera, she looked absolutely confident as she spoke at a controlled pace.
"This autonomous vehicle technology is something our team spent eight full years developing. It includes navigation, positioning, obstacle detection, and other system functions. Apart from that, it will make automated adjustments based on the speed limit on the road. With the autonomous vehicle, you'll never have to worry about speeding fines ever again. Furthermore…"
As the director of this technology, Ouyang Qing was no doubt the main focus. Her tall and slender figure, prideful demeanor, matured beauty, and exceptional wisdom brought forth countless howls from the audience. Countless people lamented in their hearts, wondering who could ever dominate this wild horse.
After the interview, it was time for Wanrong Group's leaders to give their speeches on their views on the prospects of autonomous vehicles. Of course, most of them were just meaningless banter. Under the eager stares of the crowd, the speech came to an end.
"Next, let us have Director Ouyang light the celebratory firecrackers for the birth of the first autonomous vehicle in human history!"
Crackle, crackle, crackle!
After a series of firecrackers, Ouyang Qing approached an object covered in red cloth. Raising her hand, pulled the cloth away!
Appearing before everyone's eyes was a bright scarlet sports car. It had a sleek aerodynamic shape and awe-inspiring design, looking like a burning flame, sending off a challenge to the crowd that looked at it.
The exhibit erupted with all the people cheering eagerly.
For some time, bright flashes filled the room as the crowd took out their phones to snap pictures. That was a car that would be recorded in the history books.
After that, Ouyang Qing personally opened the car doors to display its interior to those present, showing them proof that the car was empty and would not have a driver inside.
Furthermore, unlike other cars, this car's driver seat was empty. There was no driver seat installed. The space was turned into an entertainment zone for one to enjoy during their trip in the autonomous vehicle. It was definitely a perfect companion for travelers.
After the showing, it was time for the autonomous vehicle to start its engine!
