My Idle System

Chapter 55: Buying a Car



Looking at his sister, now silent and gazing at him questioningly, with a hint of panic in her expression, Christian felt a little amused, with even a sense of satisfaction from teasing her. However, after a brief pause, he took pity on her and decided to clarify his intentions.

"Well, I mean, we need to do something before we come back to the hair salon."

With the tension finally easing and her taut nerves finally relaxing, Annabelle, now a bit intrigued, asked.

"Where do you want to go first?"

"To buy a car."

Feeling a bit surprised by the abrupt mention of the car, Annabelle couldn't help but continue asking.

"Car?"

"Wait, actually, why suddenly?"

Seeing the surprised look on his sister's face, Christian replied patiently.

"Sis, it's not about being sudden; it's about why not?"

"Like, why should we rely on public transportation or taxis if we have the money to buy one?"

"Shouldn't we be searching for our comfort?"

Annabelle, looking at her brother, didn't know what to say and finally relented, secretly hoping it would be a cheap one.

Then she called the hair salon instead of just going there, even though it was only a few meters away. She informed them that they would be a little late since she had made a reservation through her friend and didn't want to have to book a new appointment.

As they took a taxi ride once more to go to the other place, Christian sat back, hoping it would be the last one.

Upon arriving at their destination, Annabelle finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked.

"What kind of car are you thinking of buying?"

When his sister questioned him about the type of car he intended to buy, Christian suddenly realized he hadn't actually thought about which one at all; he had simply known that he needed to buy one.

As Christian contemplated what kind of car he would buy, he was suddenly reminded that he didn't have as much money as he thought, as while he had a decent amount for an average citizen, it wouldn't be nearly enough if he wanted to buy a sports car.

Feeling a sense of regret, he realized he would have to settle for a normal car first, though it would still be new and a bit luxurious.

So he finally sighed in resignation, and replied.

"A nice and new one?"

Hearing her brother's answer, Annabelle was certain he hadn't thought things through and was just acting on impulse, and while she wanted to advise him to spend his money more wisely, she also recognized that he didn't have a habit of spending much at all, and it was all his hard-earned money.

So, in the end, she decided to stay silent and simply try to steer him toward the cheaper options.

"Well, we can go in and see which one you like."

Entering the car dealership, Annabelle glanced at the interiors briefly before spotting the cars she wanted to show her brother and led him toward them.

Christian examined the cars his sister was showing him, listening to her explanations while glancing at the information displayed next to each vehicle.

For the first time, Christian had the idea that his sister might be frugal and stingy with her spending. Or was it because it was his money?

He didn't know the answer, and it was also possible that his sister still hadn't adapted to his situation. So, he remained silent, reminding himself that he should later refresh her perspective and broaden her horizons.

After all, it was his responsibility, and now, paired with his Idle System, the last thing he had to worry about was money.

Christian felt that everything was achievable as long as he was given time, after all.

Returning to the current subject, Christian glanced at a few cars his sister had recommended and finally said to her.

"Sis, how about we just take a look at everything?"

Without waiting for her response, Christian walked over to another section filled with more impressive cars, and Annabelle, feeling a bit helpless, simply followed him.

Looking at the cars before him, and noticing the price tags ranging from $30,000 to over $70,000. Christian, felt a sense of relief wash over him, knowing he had more than enough money in his bank account to consider his options.

Then as he carefully examined the cars in front of him, with his sister now mostly silent, suddenly a neatly dressed female sales representative approached them. She paused for a moment, seemingly unsure of whom to address first. Finally, she smiled at Annabelle and inquired about their needs, ready to offer her assistance.

While Christian listened to his sister conversing with the sales representative, he remained focused on the cars before him. He carefully considered which one would be best suited for them, all the while keeping in mind that once he had more money, he would eventually buy a new sports car anyway.

Thinking he should choose a car that would be comfortable for both him and his sister for now, he finally made his decision.

"This model boasts an incredible feature that will truly elevate your driving experience."

"Oh."

Hearing the sales representative trying to convince his sister about one of the cars while she just awkwardly responded by exclaiming, Christian finally approached them. He looked at his sister and interjected, saying.

"Sis, I've decided on which car to buy."

Annabelle, feeling like she could finally escape the persistent sales representative, breathed a sigh of relief at her brother's timely interruption and quickly asked him, her curiosity piqued.

"Which one?"

Walking a bit further, Christian spotted a Mercedes-Benz C300 in Mountain Grey Metallic color and pointed.

"This one will do."

Seeing the price tag of $48,000, Annabelle felt a pang of anxiety and heartache at the thought of spending such a large amount. She turned to her brother, her eyes silently questioning whether he was truly certain about his choice.
