But she knew they treated her coldly behind her back. And even if she were still the princess of the Tang Family, her grandfather would never have approved such an extravagant purchase so casually. A car like that cost at least seven million yuan, and she had no idea how Qin Long had managed to get a forty-percent discount. That was a savings of several million. Therefore, Xuewu could only look on with envy. But now, Qin Long had actually bought one for her. It was even more stunning and luxurious than Han Bing’s. And that song... how could her heart not be moved? She and Qin Long already spent all their ti together; what girl could possibly resist? Most importantly, she could feel that Qin Long’s feelings for her were genuine.
"Miss, may I ask how much this car actually costs?" Zhang ilan asked the beautiful assistant beside her tentatively.
"Auntie, this is a specially customized Rolls-Royce Phantom Queen’s Edition," the beautiful assistant explained patiently. "Mr. Qin had it designed with features specifically beneficial for won, even considering that ti of the month. So, the price is indeed a bit steep. However, Mr. Qin sohow managed to get a direct forty-percent discount! Now, the final price is just under four million."
It was just one phone call from Mr. Qin that prompted CEO Su Hong herself to have the Rolls-Royce air-freighted over. The staff had been busy for a full day and night to prepare it.
Zhang ilan was dumbfounded.
He got a discount of almost half, and it still costs over four million! Qin Long had just swiped his card to buy an Audi, and now he was buying a custom Rolls-Royce! Judging from what the assistant said, with transportation and middlen, wouldn’t that an the original cost was over ten million? Does Qin Long really have that much money? Or are these people all just actors he hired?
"Mr. Qin, our CEO, Su Hong, specifically asked to apologize to you," the beautiful assistant said, walking gracefully toward Qin Long on her slender legs. "She was unable to greet you personally because she had to go overseas for a eting. However, our CEO said that if there’s anything else you need, you have only to ask. It will be done, no questions asked. Mr. Qin, Miss Xuewu can drive the car away today."
Hearing this, Zhang ilan took a deep breath.
So it isn’t an act! Haha, all these luxury cars are ours now! Even Old De and I can drive an Audi! Oh my god!
Zhang ilan wiped the sweat from her forehead, trying to calm herself down. This completely shattered her perception of reality.
"Xuewu, want to take it for a spin?" Qin Long asked, waiting for her reply.
"Mm-hm," Tang Xuewu responded softly, slowly recovering from her shock.
Upon her agreent, the manager himself handed a set of gifts to Tang Xuewu: camouflage-patterned crystal cups, four sets of overseas cheongsam gowns, a pair of jade bracelets, and a pair of necklaces.
The surrounding crowd looked on with envy. The gifts alone were worth at least a hundred thousand yuan. Seeing the envious glances all around, Tang Xuewu still felt as if she were in a daze.
"Looks like I’ll have to trouble you to be my driver from now on," Qin Long said with a mischievous smile.
"From now on, I’ll be your driver," Tang Xuewu said, then imdiately lowered her head in embarrassnt. "But I’ve never actually driven since getting my license in college. I’d be too scared to drive on the asphalt for the first ti with so many cars around. I only passed the test; I don’t have any real experience."
"No problem, we’ll practice slowly in the future," Qin Long said, gently patting her hand to comfort her. "For today, let’s have this beautiful lady help drive us ho."
Tang Xuewu gave him a nod of agreent.
"In that case, could I trouble you to drive the car to the Tang Family’s courtyard for us?" Qin Long said, signaling for Tang Xuewu to share her location with the assistant.
"Mr. Qin, you’re being too polite. It’s our pleasure," the beautiful assistant said, smiling from ear to ear as she eagerly saved the location. "Please rest assured. We will perform one final inspection, wash the car, and deliver it to you personally right away."
"Much appreciated."
With Tang Xuewu supporting him, Qin Long departed as the staff lined up on both sides, bowing respectfully.
"By the way, Qin Long, what about the Audi?" Zhang ilan asked with a frown. "I can’t drive either..."
Even though the Audi was no match for the Rolls-Royce, driving a car like that to play mahjong or visit relatives would be perfectly understated and tasteful.
"Mom, why don’t we just return it? One car is enough for our family of four," Tang Xuewu suggested after a mont’s thought.
"I disagree! You and Qin Long have a Rolls-Royce, but your dad and I have nothing. His Buick is practically a worn-out wreck by now! How can you be so thoughtless toward your parents already?"
Seeing that Zhang ilan was about to throw a tantrum, Qin Long quickly smiled. "That’s an easy fix, Aunt Lan. We can just have their manager drive it back for us, can’t we?"
"Now that’s a sensible thing to say. Hmph!" Zhang ilan imdiately trotted over to the manager in her high heels and explained the situation. The manager, upon hearing her request, readily agreed.
And so, they continued on their way out.
Zhang ilan’s expression was grim. After all, she had loudly proclaid that Qin Long was a pauper who couldn’t possibly have ten million yuan. But then Qin Long had casually spent millions on cars, a fact that was like a slap to her face. She was utterly speechless.
Zhang ilan kept sneaking glances at Qin Long. Finally, at a crossroads, she couldn’t contain her curiosity any longer. "Qin Long, how do you have so much money?"
Tang Xuewu also turned her beautiful eyes toward him, her gaze fixed on Qin Long, just as curious.
"Oh, money doesn’t an much to ," Qin Long replied after a mont’s thought, deciding on an excuse. "This is all just compensation money from an injury I sustained."
He had once commanded the million-strong Heavenly Dragon Army, bathing battlefields in blood. His na alone made enemy nations tremble with fear. For protecting the Grand Xia Nation, what was this paltry sum of money?
"By the way, how much do you have left?" Zhang ilan’s eyebrows shot up as she stared coldly at Qin Long.
"Still a bit," Qin Long said slowly.
"How much, exactly?" Hearing this, Zhang ilan’s interest was imdiately piqued.
"I’m not sure, but it’s definitely enough to live on."
Qin Long knew he had a little over five million left, but he didn’t want to tell Zhang ilan. It would be too difficult to explain if she pressed him. How much could one get for an injury? A few million at most? Even if Zhang ilan is a bit slow, she would eventually question who would pay out over fifty million in compensation. After all, his Purple Crystal Card had already been exposed.
Zhang ilan was also growing suspicious. Could it be that Qin Long’s past really was extraordinary?
They took the bus back to the Tang Family’s courtyard. As soon as they got ho, they saw a large crowd gathered in front of their neighbor’s house.
The neighbors were chattering as they surrounded a black Audi A4.
"Wow, look! It’s an Audi! Such an understated, luxurious car!"
"That’s right! I heard it costs over four hundred thousand. It must be a boss’s car."
"My, my, iling, did you strike it rich?" Zhang ilan asked with a wide smile as she joined the crowd.
A middle-aged woman in a pink dress smiled proudly at Zhang ilan. "Oh, this? It’s just the new Audi my son bought."
