Buying Another Car

Ling Yun's memory was photographic, and he immediately recalled the phone number of Manager Li from the 4S dealership, dialing it right away.

"Hello, who is this?" Manager Li asked lazily. His performance quotas for the year had already been fulfilled long ago, so he had no need to act submissively or read anyone's expression.

"My surname is Ling. Manager Li, have my license plates arrived yet?"

The person on the other end recognized Ling Yun's voice at once and instantly perked up. This was a tycoon of a client! "Mr. Ling, you really are clairvoyant. The plates just arrived at noon."

"As long as they're here, bring them over to me right now. I happen to be at home. Oh, and bring me two more Audi top-tier configurations, along with the contracts. Make it snappy. I live at Riverside Villa, Section 11, No. 2403."

Manager Li was overjoyed at this. He was getting orders for two more Audis all at once! He must have hit the jackpot. Knowing that the other party also lived in a cluster of tycoon villas, even his form of address changed. "Understood, Young Master Ling. I'll arrange for people to deliver them to you immediately. No, I'll go personally!"

Chen Li and Lin Qiuyan had also overheard Ling Yun buying two Audis.

"Son, why are you buying so many cars? Isn't that too wasteful?"

"It's not a waste, I have arrangements for them. One is assigned for Chen Li's use, and one will be kept at home as a spare."

"What? Assigned to me? I can't take that." Chen Li waved her hands in refusal.

"Once the hotel is established, you'll be the general manager. You can't let me lose face, right? Tell me, it's only right for me, this boss, to assign a car to you."

"But, but I still can't accept it." Chen Li's attitude was very resolute.

"I'm the boss, you have to listen to me. Your dad here isn't short on money."

At this, Chen Li was left speechless. What even was this? Was having money just being willful?

"Mom, I know. Don't you just want that little girl to live here? With me, she'll have good food and lodging, and with me around, you can rest easy too. So, I'm keeping one for Yueyan." Ling Yun said, seeing right through Lin Qiuyan's thoughts.

"Oh my, son, you really are the roundworm in your mother's belly!" Lin Qiuyan was pleasantly surprised. She hadn't expected her son's thoughts to be so delicate that he could actually guess it, and it looked like he agreed to it.

"I agree, but you have to make her listen to me."

"Mhm, I'll talk to her. With you looking after her, I'm much more at ease."

"You guys keep chatting, I still need to draw a few design blueprints." With that, he went to the study.

In a certain coffee shop in Jiangbei City...

Lin Yueyan and Qianqian were drinking coffee and waiting for someone, while the little milk dog was eating ice cream nearby, looking completely like it had gained sentience.

"Song Song, look over there, Yueyan is right there." Jiang Ning pointed in that direction.

"Oh, is that very pretty girl your high school classmate?" Gao Feifei asked, looking at Lin Yueyan.

"Yeah, Feifei. Yueyan even got admitted to Jiangbei University too. We'll all be alumni from now on," Song Song said.

"Look over there, you guys, that little kid is so cute! I can't take it, I'm going over to kiss her." Jiang Ning said as she ran over to kiss Qianqian.

"Why are you guys so late arriving?" Lin Yueyan pouted.

"Oh, Yueyan, I'm terribly sorry. There was a bit of a traffic jam on the way." Song Song also felt that they had been delayed for a long time.

"This kid is so adorable, big sister wants a hug!"

"Hey, hey, hey, you guys scared my niece."

"Yueyan, is this your niece? You never mentioned her before."

"Aunties, who are you? Don't pinch my cheeks, and don't kiss me!" The little one was a little unhappy. Who were all these people? Why did they start pinching and kissing her the moment they came over?

"Be a good girl, call us big sister! Big sisters will give you candy," Gao Feifei tempted.

Yueyan looked doubtfully at this unfamiliar girl.

"Yueyan, she's my best friend, her name is Gao Feifei," Song Song explained to her.

"No way, she calls me aunt, how can she call you big sisters? Qianqian, call them old aunties!"

"Mhm, did the aunties bring Qianqian any gifts?" As she spoke, she even held out her hand with a look that suggested she wouldn't retract it unless given something. She was utterly adorable, making the few girls wish they could give her a few more kisses.

However, they were suddenly awkward—they hadn't prepared any gifts, having no idea there would be a little kid present.

"Um, Qianqian, right? Auntie was too rushed to prepare a gift. We'll take you shopping later and buy you whatever you want, okay?" Jiang Ning was helpless. This kid was only a little over two years old, so how could she be so sharp?

Lin Yueyan snickered on the side, watching them get stumped, feeling utterly delighted inside.

"All right then, you're not allowed to lie to Qianqian, okay?" The little one said earnestly in her milky voice.

"Mhm, let's pinky swear."

"Look, you guys, there's also a little milk dog! I want to pet it," Song Song suddenly discovered Little Tiger at the other end of the table.

"Really? Is this also brought by Yueyan? It's eating ice cream, it's practically turned into a spirit! I can't even, haha!" Gao Feifei clutched her stomach and laughed uncontrollably. It was her first time seeing a dog eat ice cream; how could she not laugh her head off?

Subsequently, these few girls drank coffee, chatted about recent interesting events, and occasionally teased the little milk dog, spending the entire afternoon at the coffee shop.

Manager Li personally led a team to deliver the cars to Ling Yun's villa. The front yard held two Audis along with Ling Yun's previous Bentley. Instructing his subordinates to install the license plates on the Bentley, he walked inside to find Ling Yun.

"Young Master Ling, my subordinates are putting on the plates right now. Let's talk about these two Audis."

"Mhm, you say your piece, I'll mind my business." Ling Yun's design blueprint still lacked a finishing touch, and he intended to complete it right then.

Chen Li and Lin Qiuyan were sitting on the sofa watching TV and chatting, in no way getting in their way.

Manager Li didn't stand on ceremony either. He laid out the prices, discounts, and when the Audi license plates would be ready, completely unbothered by whether Ling Yun was listening closely or not. Once he finished speaking, he handed the contract over onto the table.

Ling Yun signed his name directly, took out his phone, and immediately transferred 2.6 million to the remittance account listed on the contract. Manager Li sighed with emotion: if every client were as crisp and straightforward with transactions as Young Master Ling, life would be good.

As he was leaving, Manager Li even told Ling Yun that if he wanted to buy any more cars in the future, he just had to look for him and everything would be arranged impeccably. He had a hunch that Ling Yun would definitely buy cars again.
