"Li Yao, what are you doing!"
The entrance to the Wenchang Auto Show was already packed.
Li Yao grabbed Wen Yaohe, but she struggled free. "I already told you, we're done. Don't keep bothering me."
"Yaohe, listen to me… I've already asked around. I heard Young Master Zhuang is coming to pick up a car today. I specifically brought you here so you could try again." Li Yao grabbed Wen Yaohe again, pleading. "Just try one more time, just once…"
"I…" Wen Yaohe thought about how embarrassing she had been at Mi Xin's place last time and gnashed her teeth in anger!
"What do you want me to do?"
"I've thought about it. Was it your tone last time? I looked at your chat logs and your outfit that day… Tell me, does Young Master Zhuang perhaps like someone more innocent?" Wen Yaohe actually remembered then. "Yeah, I've always been pretending to be a naive sweet girl, thinking Young Master Zhuang was just a rich sucker. I was wearing a camisole that day. You mean…"
"Exactly! That's why I got you a similar outfit today. Try it on again, maybe Young Master Zhuang likes that kind of thing! All my family's assets have been frozen now, I don't even have a place to live. If… if this works out, once I recover, I'll give you anything you want."
"Okay, fine…"
Wen Yaohe took the clothes Li Yao gave her and went into the restroom. After changing, she came out.
"I have to say, you look completely different in this outfit." Li Yao's eyes lit up, and he pushed her into the exhibition hall. "Later, you'll have a chance encounter with Young Master Zhuang."
"Oh, oh, oh… I get it." Wen Yaohe quickly pretended to be casually browsing.
Li Yao also hid to the side, watching secretly.
A short while later, Zhuang Xin indeed arrived.
Hands in his pockets, dressed in casual wear.
He strolled slowly through the exhibition hall.
"Hmm, this car is nice! Over 400,000, mm-hmm… but the body is too big."
Zhuang Xin glanced at a sedan at the entrance, then walked away.
"Whoa! A Porsche worth over a million!" Zhuang Xin stopped again. The Porsche models struck a few poses.
After browsing for a while, Zhuang Xin suddenly heard an exclamation.
He looked towards the sound and saw a crowd gathered.
"What's going on? Whoa, a Koenigsegg…"
"How much is it?"
"47 million, my god…"
Following the sound, Zhuang Xin walked over.
In front of him was a magnificent sports car, with models standing on both sides.
The crowd swallowed hard, not expecting a Koenigsegg worth nearly 50 million to appear at this Wenchang Auto Show…
Zhuang Xin pushed through the crowd and came up to the sports car, touching its body.
"This car is nice…"
"Hey, what are you doing? What are you touching?" A bald middle-aged man nearby was displeased. He had spotted this sports car from afar and was already planning to buy it outright. Seeing the car he liked being touched by others made him instantly unhappy.
Zhuang Xin looked back. Oh, this guy looks familiar.
Isn't this Zhao Guangwei, the husband of Liu Xiang, his supervisor at his old job who used to make things difficult for him even when he wanted to take leave? He heard Zhao Guangwei had opened two small companies and made a lot of money. He looked like he was quite well-off.
"What are you looking at? I'm talking to you." Zhao Guangwei's tone grew worse.
Zhuang Xin ignored him and got into the sports car himself.
Two car models were about to stop him, already preparing to call security.
Unexpectedly, Ma Heng, the boss who organized the auto show, frowned and signaled the two car models not to move.
He had recognized Zhuang Xin when he arrived.
This was the Young Master Zhuang that General Manager Qu had mentioned. He even had a photo of him.
Qu Hongyun had told him all about Zhuang Xin's background. Qu Hongyun had even offered to pay for Zhuang Xin's car earlier, but Ma Heng had refused.
In his opinion, he couldn't let Qu Hongyun take all the benefits. He planned to use this opportunity as a stepping stone to further his career.
"What's going on? Why wouldn't you let me test drive earlier, but you stopped me? This kid just sat in it, and no one is stopping him?" Zhao Guangwei was getting angrier.
Zhuang Xin sneered, "I say, if I'm not mistaken, you're Mr. Zhao, right? Instead of wasting time on me, you should go check on your wife. Your wife has become a public nuisance at the company."
"Kid? What are you talking about? You can insult me, but don't insult my wife." Zhao Guangwei's face darkened, his eyes showing more than just anger.
"That's enough." Zhuang Xin sat in the car and glanced at the smiling model next to him, realizing someone must have recognized him. Therefore, he wasn't worried and just waved his hand. "If you want to know about your wife's situation, just have someone investigate, and you'll know. Whether what I said is true or not, you're a grown man, can't you tell!"
"You…"
Zhao Guangwei's expression changed several times. Whether his wife's situation was true or false, it shouldn't have been brought up here.
In front of everyone, with many of his friends around, if this got out, how could he still have any face in Juncheng?
"Heh! Alright, kid, you know quite a lot. But I believe my wife wouldn't betray me. On the other hand, you're slandering my family's name. This matter won't be easily dismissed."
Zhao Guangwei had been in Juncheng for so long; how could he not have any connections?
He immediately walked out, found the auto show office, and burst through the door.
With a bang, everyone in the office looked over.
"Boss Zhao?" someone recognized him and stepped forward, shaking Zhao Guangwei's hand with a smile. This person was Xu Cun, the head of Koenigsegg and an old friend of Zhao Guangwei's.
Normally, Zhao Guangwei always prioritized Xu Cun when buying cars.
"Old Xu, that's not fair of you."
"Oh? What do you mean? Was there some kind of slight?" Xu Cun was startled, looking at Zhao Guangwei, who was clearly there to complain, and felt a bit confused.
Zhao Guangwei sneered, "I've bought quite a few luxury cars from you over the years, haven't I? If you really add it up, you've made hundreds of thousands, if not millions, off me. Is this how you treat your loyal customers? Not even letting me test drive?"
"Oh..." Xu Cun seemed to recall something and chuckled dryly, "Is that what this is about? Director Zhao, you're talking about that Koenigsegg, aren't you?"
"Heh."
"Hey, Boss Zhao, it's not that I don't want to give you face, it's just that there's a rule from upstairs. No one is allowed to touch this car."
"No one is allowed to touch it? Xu Cun, do you take me for a rich sucker? There's someone sitting in the car outside right now, and it's about to drive off! You're telling me it can't be touched?" Zhao Guangwei slammed the table, furious.
Xu Cun was shocked, "That's impossible. I've already made arrangements. No one is allowed to touch that car."
"Haha! I say, Xu Cun, you really are two-faced."
"Director Zhao... please, just listen to me, Director Zhao. How about this? I'll go out with you to take a look. If it's really like you say, I'll kick out the person test driving and fire the staff who were supposed to be guarding it. What do you say?"
"Heh, I hope you're telling the truth!"
