To see the people they had always looked down on suddenly doing better than them made them extrely bitter, so they spoke with deliberate, cold sarcasm.
"This Audi is pretty ordinary," Qin Long said, his gaze turning playful as he swept it across the crowd. "That’s why I let Aunt ilan take it for her mahjong gas."
"Well now!" Li iling’s daughter-in-law scoffed. "What big talk! Are you implying you have other cars?"
Just as Qin Long was about to answer, iling cut him off. "Could it be that rented fifty-million-yuan Aston Martin?"
Hearing this, the crowd erupted in laughter. Everyone knew that car had beco a complete joke.
Li iling’s daughter-in-law covered her mouth to hide a smirk. "This ’big brother’ here... we just want to know what kind of car could possibly suit your... crippled disposition."
At that, the crowd howled with laughter once more.
"It’s here," Qin Long said, nodding his chin toward the end of the street.
"Is bragging all you can do?" Li iling’s daughter-in-law sneered, glancing disdainfully in that direction.
The mont everyone turned to look, a sound pierced the air.
BEEP! BEEP!
They all jumped in surprise.
A fiery red car, like a glowing ruby, was slowly approaching. It seed to imbue the surrounding houses with an air of nobility. It was the impossibly smooth purr of a top-tier luxury car’s engine. It didn’t have the roar of a street racer, but the sound was still deeply impressive.
It was a Rolls-Royce Phantom Princess Custom Edition, gleaming in brilliant, fiery red. The light it gave off made it shine like a queen among cars, dazzling all who saw it.
Suddenly, the surroundings fell deathly silent. You could hear a pin drop.
Every eye was riveted to it, hearts pounding in their chests.
It took a full minute for them to process what they were seeing.
"Is that the Rolls-Royce Phantom Princess Custom Edition? The standard for royalty overseas!"
"I rember reading that it costs over seven million yuan, right?"
"The scariest part is, you can’t get a car like this just by having money..." so of the car enthusiasts in the crowd murmured in awe.
Although there were many Rolls-Royces in Jiangzhong—if not ten thousand, then at least eight thousand—there were fewer than ten of this Phantom Princess Custom Edition in the entire city. In that instant, it beca the sole focus of everyone’s attention.
The Rolls-Royce Princess pulled to a smooth stop beside the Audi.
Then, a tall, stunningly beautiful woman erged from the car. Beneath her black miniskirt, a pair of long, fair legs were endlessly alluring.
"My God," one of the n muttered, "she’s more beautiful than a supermodel!"
At that mont, all the n present swallowed hard, their eyes wide. She had a perfect hourglass figure, with fair skin and a beautiful face. And to top it all off, she arrived in a top-class luxury car like this Rolls-Royce Princess. A beautiful woman and a luxury car—it was the dream of countless n.
Yet this peerless beauty rely swept her gaze over the crowd, her expression unchanged. It wasn’t until she saw Qin Long leaning on his crutches that her cold, beautiful face broke into a radiant smile.
"Young Master Qin, this place was quite difficult to find," the woman said, smiling as she walked toward him in her red high heels, her face a mask of admiration and respect. She looked like a secretary trying to curry favor with her boss.
What the heck! Li iling and her daughter-in-law were completely stunned.
"Young Master Qin, all of Miss Xuewu’s paperwork has been processed," the beautiful woman said, coming to a stop before Qin Long. She handed him the Rose Gold Key and a docunt folder. "The key is engraved with Miss Tang’s na. If you have any problems in the future, you can always contact personally."
As she leaned down, the view of her ample chest was generously displayed for Qin Long, seemingly by design.
Li iling and the others were instantly dumbfounded.
A woman this gorgeous is being so respectful to Qin Long, just like that man from before. What on earth is going on? Not only did Qin Long buy an Audi, but he also bought this Rolls-Royce... whatever custom edition it is?
Everyone couldn’t help but gasp, frozen to the spot in disbelief.
What the hell is happening? A cripple just bought cars worth nearly eight million yuan? They wouldn’t believe it in their wildest dreams, but the cold, hard fact was right in front of them. This stunning goddess was being so deferential to Qin Long, and she even seed to be deliberately trying to seduce him.
"Xuewu, these are for you. Keep them safe," Qin Long said, his face devoid of emotion as he waved a hand dismissively.
He was actually giving a beauty the cold shoulder. The single n in the crowd were practically grinding their teeth with envy.
This supermodel-tier beauty is throwing herself at him, and he’s acting so cold! If it were us, we’d give up ten years of our lives just for a chance with her! How could anyone bear to reject such a woman?! But this damned cripple just brushed her off?
Tang Xuewu felt a surge of joy. For so reason, seeing Qin Long ignore another beautiful woman made her incredibly happy.
"Alright, Young Master Qin."
The beautiful assistant’s face fell with a hint of disappointnt, but she still walked over to Tang Xuewu and handed her the items. Then, she left reluctantly.
Now, a Rolls-Royce Phantom Princess Custom Edition sat in the Tang Family’s small courtyard. The Audi parked next to it was instantly reduced to scrap tal by comparison. After all, this car was worth almost twenty Audi A4s!
A dead silence fell over the crowd again.
"Does anyone still doubt us now?" Zhang ilan’s voice was like ice as she swept her rciless gaze over the neighbors.
Li iling and her daughter-in-law’s faces turned beet-red with sha.
Although the neighbors were annoyed by Qin Long’s show of wealth, they still wore fawning smiles. Many of them began to flatter and suck up to Zhang ilan. Just monts ago, they were bitter seeing Qin Long buy an Audi A6. But now, his display of wealth had so far exceeded their expectations that all they could do was try to curry favor. They knew they could never hope to catch up to this new Qin Long, so their only option was to shalessly sing his praises.
"Alright, Mom, I should go make dinner," Tang Xuewu said, pulling on Zhang ilan’s arm, not wanting to completely alienate their neighbors.
Zhang ilan couldn’t feel better, having thoroughly vented her frustrations.
"Old De, hurry back!" she yelled into her phone as she walked away. "Take the Audi to the supermarket! We’re buying ribs tonight! We’re going to eat well!"
She was the very picture of pride and arrogance.
Tang Xuewu felt a little embarrassed. "Qin Long, my mom doesn’t an anything by it," she quickly explained. "For the past three years, the neighbors have been mocking us nonstop. Even when she plays mahjong, they’d laugh and ask if she was going to lose money and refuse to pay her debts. They’d say other, even nastier things... Now that she’s finally gotten her pride back, she’s determined to let it all out..."
"Xuewu, I understand," Qin Long said. He knew that during the three years he was a fool, Tang Xuewu’s family had endured endless ridicule. "You wouldn’t even buy new clothes for yourself so you could pay to treat my leg. From today on, I will gradually give you everything you’ve ever wanted. If you need money, don’t ever hesitate to ask ."
He gently patted her hand as he made his promise.
"Mm-hmm."
A warmth spread through Tang Xuewu’s heart, and a shy blush appeared on her face. She felt a profound sense of security from this man, Qin Long.
「Inside a residential complex in Jiangzhong.」
Liu Xiaoyue was furious. She slamd a glass down, her anger growing with every passing thought.
