"Three hundred thousand?"
Bai Ningbing ignored everything else. She opened her mouth, as if to say sothing, but nothing ca out. It seed she was internally conflicted.
Then, without deciding whether to invest, she took a sip of her drink and changed the subject, chatting about other things.
However, just then, a classmate walked in from outside. He was probably delayed by sothing; this was the last classmate to arrive.
As he entered, his face was full of surprise. He casually found a seat and then boisterously exclaid, "Damn it, guys! Guess what I just saw at the entrance?"
"An Audi R8, a luxury car worth millions!"
"And a car like that was parked right in front of the hot pot restaurant, blocking their main entrance!"
"Maybe that’s what owning a luxury car is all about—you can just do whatever you want."
Zhang Zhicheng, seeing He Wanlin co in and chatter endlessly, said irritably, "He Wanlin, look how worked up you are. It’s just a luxury car. Soday I’ll take you to Impression City. The entrance there is lined with either Ferraris or Bentleys—now that’s Aweso!"
"You’d have to be able to afford it first, my Boss Zhang," He Wanlin retorted, not letting him off the hook. He’d been enthusiastically boasting, and this guy just had to throw a wet blanket on it—how la.
Soon, He Wanlin was showing everyone photos on his phone. It seed he had even snapped a few pictures of the luxury car when he ca in.
Zhang Zhicheng might have claid Ferraris and Bentleys were more incredible, but he still ca over to take a look.
"Is this car really in the millions? Audis aren’t that expensive, are they?" Xu Lili, from an ordinary family, didn’t understand. In her mind, Audis were only in the hundreds of thousands.
"This is an Audi R8. Off-the-lot, it’s about 2.8 million," Zhang Zhicheng said, giving Xu Lili a contemptuous look.
"2.8 million? Goodness , that expensive?"
Zhang Zhicheng quickly jumped in, eager to show off his knowledge of luxury cars. "You bet it is! The Audi R8 has a 5.2L V10 engine, goes from zero to one hundred in just 3.1 seconds, has a top speed of 331 km/h, and a maximum of 620 horsepower. How could it not be pricey? You get what you pay for, right?"
Zhang Zhicheng continued, "Cars like this leave many Ferraris and Lamborghinis eating dust. They have the power to ’slaughter bulls and kill horses.’"
"Boss Zhang, what does ’slaughter bulls and kill horses’ an?"
Zhang Zhicheng smirked. "Ferrari is the ’horse,’ Lamborghini is the ’bull.’ That’s what ’slaughtering bulls and killing horses’ ans."
"Hahaha, Boss Zhang truly is Boss Zhang! You know a bit about everything."
"How does this car compare to your BMW X6?"
Zhang Zhicheng imdiately looked a bit awkward. "Well, of course, mine can’t compare, but it’s not *that* far off, is it?"
"This license plate is quite interesting, though. Maybe even more incredible than the car itself." Zhang Zhicheng looked at the pictures of the luxury car again.
"Luzhou LF888..." Bai Ningbing also looked over curiously. But then she noticed Luofeng secretly snickering and glanced at him suspiciously.
LF888? Could it be Luofeng 888? Bai Ningbing wondered if she had guessed correctly, but judging by Luofeng’s expression, it was highly probable. Did this guy really make five million and go buy an Audi R8? Sigh. One gets an eight-hundred-thousand yuan car thanks to his family. The other earns a 2.8 million yuan luxury car through the stock market. The difference is truly night and day. And to think Zhang Zhicheng is still here, endlessly hyping this Audi R8.
"A top-tier luxury car like this... if you’re not born into it, you can forget about owning one in your entire lifeti. For people like us, unless my dad’s company suddenly makes several hundred million, there’s no hope." After this helpless remark, Zhang Zhicheng returned to his seat.
"It’s just a three-million yuan car. Why would your dad need to make three hundred million to buy it for you?"
Zhang Zhicheng chuckled dryly. "Bro, if your father earned one million, would he buy you a car worth over a hundred thousand?"
"Probably not."
"Exactly! For a rich second generation to drive a car worth millions, their family needs at least one billion as a base, possibly several billion!" Zhang Zhicheng said irritably. "If they only have tens of millions, or assets just barely reaching a hundred million, would they spend millions on a car for you to play with? Dream on!"
Zhang Zhicheng’s aning was simple: it was true he drove an 800,000 yuan car, but his family also had assets worth over a hundred million yuan. He was indirectly boasting. However, he was also speaking the truth. For a family that could buy their son a car worth several million, it was practically spare change.
’Not born with it, so I’m dood for life? But he bought it himself, didn’t he?’ Bai Ningbing, of course, wouldn’t say this out loud; it was just her making complaints inwardly.
"Excuse , sir, a car needs to get out. Could you please move yours?"
Just then, the hostess from the entrance ca in, smiling.
Luofeng stood up slightly. "Okay, I’ll be right there."
Before everyone could react, Luofeng left the private room.
After a few seconds of silence in the private room, He Wanlin was the first to exclaim excitedly, "Damn it, that car actually belongs to Luofeng?"
"Damn it, yes! The license plate is LF888? Isn’t that Luofeng’s ’Get Rich’? It has to be!"
"What’s the big deal? Haven’t I told you guys? Luofeng made several million in the stock market recently!"
Xu Shaoyuan had been suspecting all along that the car might be Luofeng’s; after all, Luofeng’s expression had seed off. Now, this was concrete proof.
"Made five million?"
"And bought an Audi R8?"
"Damn it! He’s at the peak of his life!"
As they spoke, everyone instinctively turned to look at Bai Ningbing. It seed they now understood why Bai Ningbing had been so warm towards Luofeng. Did she know sothing in advance?
Of course, facing their curious stares, Bai Ningbing didn’t explain anything. Let them think whatever they want. She hadn’t deliberately tried to get close to him; Bai Ningbing was simply looking for a classmate with shared interests and topics for conversation.
A short while later, Luofeng returned to the private room and noticed many of the girls looking at him with noticeably more fervent gazes.
"Luofeng, so that 2.8 million yuan luxury car everyone’s been hyping up... it’s yours?" Xu Lili couldn’t help but ask.
"Yes, it is," Luofeng nodded.
"A 2.8 million yuan luxury car?" Xu Lili pressed.
"Actually, not quite that much. The base car price was around 2.3 million. After adding purchase tax, insurance, and everything, it ca to just over 2.71 million."
"Is there really a difference?" Xu Lili rolled her eyes. It’s only ninety thousand yuan.
"Of course, there’s a difference. Ninety thousand yuan is still a lot of money," Luofeng smiled. That ninety thousand yuan would take two or three days to get with my Jump Money Card.
"You didn’t keep any for investnt and spent it all on the car?" Bai Ningbing thought Luofeng was being a bit impulsive.
"In business, you need to maintain appearances, right? Besides, this car has already brought a small inco." Luofeng could see her ’desire list’ and naturally didn’t want her to think he was just so impulsive show-off.
"A small inco? What kind of small inco?"
"I’ll tell you later." Luofeng, unable to co up with an excuse on the spot, just brushed it off.
Soon, amidst everyone’s animated discussions, the gathering was drawing to a close.
Zhang Zhicheng seed to hesitate for a long ti before finally standing up. "Classmate Bai Ningbing, it’s getting late. My ho isn’t far from yours. How about I give you a ride ho?"
For his goddess, he’d throw caution to the wind... If I don’t try, I won’t get a chance. Besides, judging by the current situation, if Bai Ningbing goes ho with Luofeng, everyone will say she’s Bai Jin, just because he has an Audi luxury car. My chances are looking pretty good right now... If I could marry such a long-legged goddess, she’d be my own private treasure for a lifeti!
