Chapter 18 Senior?
May in Star City was unusually hot, and the sun shining directly overhead made Shen Yuan's scalp burn.
It took at least a 10-minute walk from his home to the bus station.
In the past, he drove a 4 Series, enjoyed the air conditioning, and sipped on cold drinks in the car, all comfortable and refreshing.
Zhou Wanting would sit beside him on the passenger seat, and he could occasionally touch her smooth, white thighs next to the gearstick.
Shen Yuan thought about how pleasant those times were.
It seems like he needed to move up the schedule for buying a car. After all, the specific 1 million in his account was meant only for buying a car. It would be wasteful not to spend it.
Nowadays, the car market is a motley collection of brands: joint ventures, imports, and domestic, each with their advantages.
For those who are clueless and haven't done their homework, it's actually quite hard to choose.
When Shen Yuan bought a car back then, he didn't know much, and Old Shen suggested he buy a BBA.
At that time, Shen Yuan thought Mercedes was too old-fashioned, Audi too business-oriented, so he ultimately chose the younger and sportier BMW.
Besides brands, there were also different types of energy sources: fuel, electric, hybrid.
Lately, many were buying electric cars. Shen Yuan had once rode in a friend's Tesla Model S—the acceleration was indeed fast, hitting 0 to 100 km in less than 4 seconds.
But for some reason, whenever Shen Yuan sat in the car, he always felt dizzy and nauseous.
At one point, he nearly vomited in his friend's car.
Since then, he hadn't felt much affection for electric cars.
With these thoughts in mind and nothing on his agenda for the afternoon, Shen Yuan decided to go take a look at some cars.
But such outings were always best with a beautiful woman accompanying him. Shen Yuan immediately thought of the busty Fang Minhui. So, he sent her a WeChat message: "Are you free this afternoon? Accompany me to look at cars?"
In the International campus women's dorm, Fang Minhui was about to take a nap when her phone "dinged." As soon as she saw the WeChat from Shen Yuan,
her eyes lit up, and the drowsiness vanished. She sat up almost without thinking and replied: "Sure, I'm free this afternoon. Where are you?"
"I'm at the school's gate; see you in half an hour."
"Okay."
Fang Minhui got out of bed feeling beautiful, dressed in a casual white T-shirt and denim shorts. Since they were going to visit a 4S store, she needed to dress up properly.
Meanwhile, Chen Ling was idly lying on her bed reading a novel. Hearing Fang Minhui's movements, she looked over: "Minhui, where are you going?"
"It wouldn't be Shen Yuan who asked you out, would it?"
Chen Ling immediately thought of this possibility. Fang Minhui was her closest friend at school, and they always went everywhere together. Her suddenly getting up without saying a word must mean a guy had asked her out.
If it had been Li Zhanpeng, Minhui wouldn't have been this enthusiastic, so it must be Shen Yuan.
"Hmm," Fang Minhui nodded softly.
"What are you guys going to do?"
"He said he's buying a car and wants me to accompany him."
"Buying a car?"
Chen Ling clicked her tongue, reflecting: "Must be nice to have money. Did he say what car he's buying?"
"He didn't say."
"Since he's buying a car, it surely won't be worse than his previous BMW, right?"
"I don't know about that."
"I'm so envious!"
Chen Ling got up from the bed and walked over to Fang Minhui, who was changing clothes, her face full of admiration: "Our Minhui is so lucky to have found such a wealthy and handsome guy."
Initially, Chen Ling didn't think Shen Yuan was particularly handsome—just the kind of guy who was easy on the eyes.
But ever since she found out that Shen Yuan had spent over fifty thousand in one night for Fang Minhui, she immediately saw him in a different light, applying an involuntary filter.
Perhaps... that's the power of money.
"We're not together yet,"
Fang Minhui said shyly, shaking her head as she took a strappy dress from her closet.
"So what are you guys going to do after buying the car?"
Chen Ling looked at Fang Minhui with a mischievous smile.
They had been best friends living together for three years, already at the point where nothing was off-limits in their conversations, and they joked without reservations.
Moreover, the other two annoying roommates just happened to be out of the dorm.
What Chen Ling actually envied most about Fang Minhui was her figure; she had everything where it mattered, especially that voluptuous bust.
Not to mention the lecherous boys, even she found herself drooling over her!
"After watching, we should probably head back to the school," Fang Minhui said, sounding somewhat guilty.
"Still pretending, huh?"
Chen Ling's eyes gleamed as she quickly reached out with both hands, cradling that full bust from behind.
"What are you doing?!"
Fang Minhui exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly trying to cover herself, but Chen Ling had already conquered the territory.
"Hmph, taking advantage of you, what else!"
"Hey, let go!"
"I'm not letting go, hehe, since Shen Yuan is going to get a bargain on you later, I might as well take my share today."
"Stop it... don't mess around... ah..."
"..."
Half an hour later, Shen Yuan picked up Fang Minhui at the school gate and they set off for the auto city.
Today, Fang Minhui dressed even more breezily compared to last night; she wore only a gray tight tank top and a black A-line skirt.
The two thin straps seemed like they could barely carry the burden, making her full figure even more perilously enticing.
However, Shen Yuan noticed that Fang Minhui's expression was somewhat strange today; her cheeks were flushed and she seemed more shy than usual, even her voice was quieter than normal. Shen Yuan thought to himself, I haven't done anything.
Not only was Shen Yuan puzzled, but the DiDi driver was also a bit unsettled. Likely, he wasn't used to seeing a girl both attractive and well-endowed. He kept sneaking glances through the rearview mirror.
Internally, Shen Yuan couldn't help but spit at him: Desperate much? Haven't you seen a woman before? He definitely planned on giving a bad rating once out of the car!
Star City had several auto cities, the largest in the east of the city and another significant one in the west, not far from the International campus.
Shen Yuan came here to buy a 4 Series when he graduated from high school.
This auto city basically had all the mainstream brands, BBA, Land Rover, Lexus, Cadillac, Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Haval, Great Wall, Geely, as well as recently popular NIO, Li Auto, and Jidu...
Back then, Shen Yuan didn't know much about cars, and Old Shen had told him to only look at BBA, so he didn't pay much attention to the others.
After buying the car, he started to pay attention to car brands and models, occasionally browsing Car Home or Autohome.
For some reason, nearly all boys seemed really interested in cars; Huang Haibao and Cao Shunjin, who had never driven, were familiar with all the mainstream models and brands on the market.
When bragging, they spoke confidently and even knew about various recalls for certain models.
However, today Shen Yuan had a specific model in mind, the Land Rover Defender.
Once they got off the DiDi, they walked into the Jaguar Land Rover dealership, and immediately a professionally dressed woman greeted them warmly, "Hello, are you here to view cars, do you have an appointment, or perhaps you know any of our sales consultants?"
"No appointment, first time here," Shen Yuan said.
"Alright, then I will arrange a sales consultant for you."
"Okay."
Some brands preemptively arranged a front desk to inquire about first-time customers, clearly, this Land Rover dealership did just that.
This approach not only facilitated the counting of first-time customers but also prevented conflicts among sales staff over potential clients.
Especially for a brand like Land Rover, which had been declining in the domestic market over the years with sales dropping annually, having 10 groups of customers on a weekday was considered good.
With fewer customers and harder sales, the corresponding commissions were quite high, sometimes leading sales staff to go to great lengths for their performance.
After a while, a man in a shirt and tie with impeccably combed hair and a confident smile stepped forward.
"Hello, which model are you interested in?"
The male sales consultant deftly pulled out a card from his pocket, about to hand it over, but his movement suddenly paused when he saw Fang Minhui.
"Minhui, what are you doing here?"
"Uh... Senior Qin?"
