President Zhang was old enough to be Ma Weiwei's father.
He had been picking and choosing without making an immediate purchase because he had his eyes on Ma Weiwei's looks and wanted to coerce her into a sexual arrangement.
He had asked Ma Weiwei to call Lin Fei over, but he didn't actually care about hiring Lin Fei for any renovations.
He simply wanted to use the opportunity to flaunt his superiority as a wealthy man and make Ma Weiwei worship him.
Now that he knew the relationship between Lin Fei and Ma Weiwei, President Zhang decided to propose to her just to spite Lin Fei and save face.
Ma Weiwei had always wanted to marry a wealthy man, but she had never had the opportunity.
Now that President Zhang was actively proposing, she was pleasantly surprised, and even felt like thanking Lin Fei.
If it weren't for Lin Fei's assist, she certainly wouldn't have had a chance to marry into a wealthy family.
Although President Zhang was a bit old, an older man with a younger wife was a common occurrence in high society.
"President Zhang, are you serious? You aren't joking with me, are you?"
President Zhang said with a straight face, "Of course I'm not joking. Actually, I felt a connection the moment I saw you, which is why I chose to buy a house through you."
Ma Weiwei quickly pressed herself against him and hugged President Zhang's arm.
President Zhang held his head high and puffed out his chest, looking as satisfied as a proud rooster.
"Kid, did you see that?"
"Not only can I afford to buy a villa, but I can even buy your former woman."
Lin Fei looked at Ma Weiwei's pathetic, desperate display and felt no sadness at all; instead, he felt a sense of relief.
She was a woman who lacked even a shred of self-respect in the face of money.
If he had actually married her, there was no telling how many times she would have cheated on him in the future.
"You two are quite the match..."
Lin Fei took out his phone and sent Ma Weiwei two hundred yuan via WeChat.
"Ma Weiwei, I just transferred two hundred yuan to you. Here is the transfer record."
Lin Fei held his phone up in front of Ma Weiwei and President Zhang, intentionally letting them see the bank transfer notification.
"Respected Mr. Lin Fei, your bank account ending in 8854 has just transferred 200 yuan. Your current account balance is 59,999,902 yuan."
"Who cares about your two hundred yuan..."
Ma Weiwei's eyes suddenly widened; thinking she had misread it, she rubbed her eyes.
"How much is your bank balance? Did I see that wrong?"
President Zhang also leaned in, the disdain on his face gradually fading, replaced by sheer shock.
"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand... eight digits. That's fifty-nine million, nine hundred ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and two yuan..."
Lin Fei put his phone away and said with a smile, "Just a little pocket change, barely enough for what you earn in a day, President Zhang."
President Zhang's expression turned awkward.
He suddenly felt like a clown.
He didn't even have that much in savings in his own bank account.
Ma Weiwei was also stunned, unable to believe what she was seeing.
"Lin Fei, you... where did you get so much money?"
Lin Fei didn't answer her, but instead said, "Oh, by the way, President Zhang, that villa is mine. If you buy a villa here, we'll be neighbors from now on."
"You know about my relationship with Weiwei, so we're all friends now. We should visit each other often; you're welcome to drop by anytime."
President Zhang looked as if he had been hit by Arthur's first skill, standing there in stunned silence.
Ma Weiwei finally snapped out of it, immediately let go of President Zhang, and walked toward Lin Fei.
"Lin Fei, it was all my fault before. I've actually always loved you..."
"Weiwei, the past is the past. I wish you and President Zhang a long and happy life together. Make sure to invite me to the wedding banquet; after all, I've already paid my gift money."
Lin Fei stepped back, giving Ma Weiwei no chance to get close, and turned to run off into the distance.
"President Zhang, let's go for a run and exercise when you have time! Bye!"
Ma Weiwei turned to look at President Zhang. Since Lin Fei was no longer an option, President Zhang was her only chance to marry into wealth.
"President Zhang..."
"Bitch!"
President Zhang swung his hand and slapped Ma Weiwei across the face, leaving her dazed.
"You had such a wealthy boyfriend and you still weren't satisfied!"
"I hate women like you the most—eating from the bowl while eyeing what's in the pot. You think I'd actually marry a piece of trash like you who's been played with by who knows how many men?"
President Zhang turned and left in a rage, leaving Ma Weiwei standing alone in the wind, completely shattered.
After leaving the Linjiang Immortal Villa Complex, Lin Fei hailed a passing taxi.
"Where to?"
"Driver, you know where the car dealerships are, right?"
"I do. There are plenty on Huaguang Road. Are you looking to buy a car?"
"Yeah, I need something to get around. Do the dealerships have Ferraris?"
Lin Fei's words silenced the driver instantly.
Taking a taxi to go buy a Ferrari?
This kid's attempt at showing off was truly beautiful!
The driver assumed Lin Fei was just bragging, so he didn't take it to heart.
"They have Ferraris. If you end up buying one, can you let me sit in it and get a feel for it?"
"Hahaha, no problem."
The two chatted and laughed all the way to the Ferrari dealership.
Upon reaching the destination, Lin Fei paid the fare and got out.
As soon as he entered the showroom, a saleswoman approached him to assist.
However, seeing Lin Fei's plain attire, the smile on her face vanished.
"Hello, sir. Are you looking to buy a car?"
She had seen far too many people who couldn't afford a Ferrari but came in just to test drive one.
She pegged Lin Fei as exactly that type of person.
Lin Fei didn't notice her attitude and curiously looked over the cars in the showroom.
"Is this all you have?"
"These are just some of the models we have on display. Our cars are all imported. Some of the high-end models require pre-ordering, and you'd have to wait a few months for them to arrive."
Lin Fei's eyes landed on a Ferrari, the same model that Wu Yuqing drove.
"How much is this one?"
"5.32 million. If you pay in full, we can offer you a discount. If you choose to finance, the down payment is forty percent, which comes to a little over 2.1 million."
"Oh, can I test drive it?"
The saleswoman couldn't help but roll her eyes, thinking to herself that he was indeed just another person looking to get a thrill from a test drive.
"Sir, we require proof of funds for test drives here."
Usually, when proof of funds was mentioned, those who couldn't afford a Ferrari would realize the difficulty and find an excuse to leave.
Lin Fei opened his mobile banking app and handed it to her to take a look.
"Is this enough?"
The saleswoman glanced at the account balance, and as if she had changed faces, her expression instantly turned into an incredibly enthusiastic smile.
"Enough, of course it's enough! Sir, let me accompany you on the test drive!"
"Would you like to drive it yourself, or should I?"
Although Lin Fei had a driver's license, he hadn't driven a car since he passed his test, so he had no real experience.
"You drive!"
The saleswoman drove Lin Fei out for a test drive. They took a spin around the road before pulling over to the side.
"Sir, what do you think of this car? Will you be placing an order today?"
Just as Lin Fei was considering it, the saleswoman suddenly placed her hand on his thigh and began to stroke it gently.
"Sir, if you place your order today, there's a surprise waiting for you!"
