Chapter 102: Chapter 102: If You Can’t Afford It, Don’t Look

Wang Zhiruo was startled, and quickly retreated.

"Who are you?"

Wu Xia froze in place, looking at the panicked Wang Zhiruo, and also dismissed the idea of moving any closer, "I’m sorry, I mistook you for someone else!"

He hurriedly returned to his room, drew the curtains closed, and hid behind them, stealthily watching Wang Zhiruo, silently shedding a tear.

"Zhiruo, as long as you’re doing well, that’s all that matters!"

Wiping away his tears, Wu Xia calmed his emotions. For a man with so many women in his life, the brief heartbreak was followed by the search for new prey.

However, Sun Xujie’s call came soon after.

He had already learned about Wang Zhiruo’s condition and knew about the mysterious Gu Worm in his family better than anyone else, but he couldn’t believe that Wang Zhiruo had actually been cured.

He found it very hard to believe that all this was real.

But he didn’t dare to ask Wu Xia directly, so he immediately transferred a woman he had been grooming over to truly test Wu Xia’s abilities.

"Mr. Wu, the first woman has already arrived. I’m currently on my way to deliver her to the villa, she should arrive by this afternoon," he said.

"Good!"

Wu Xia shook off the gloom in his heart and immediately switched gears, "Contact me when she arrives!"

After hanging up the phone, Wu Xia washed up and went downstairs.

Lin Jiao was downstairs, and upon seeing Wu Xia awake, she immediately came over with concern, "Xia, are you alright?"

She knew about Wu Xia’s situation, so she was very worried about him and hadn’t accompanied Zhou Fang out today.

"Jiaojiao!" Wu Xia took Lin Jiao into his arms.

His love for Lin Jiao was a different concept from his love for Wang Zhiruo.

Perhaps because Wang Zhiruo’s personality was somewhat similar to Lin Jiao’s, she had become a substitute for Lin Jiao.

Lin Jiao was more like the main wife, while the other women were just concubines.

"It’s alright, I’m fine. Didn’t you say you could cure me in a month?" Lin Jiao comforted, "When the time comes, I’ll accompany you properly, and you won’t be troubled anymore!"

"Yeah!" Wu Xia nodded, "I’m fine, I’ve moved on."

Lin Jiao rolled her eyes at Wu Xia, "You really are a heartless cad, and to think I was worried about you! Today, my sister-in-law asked me to go for a spa, but I didn’t go. I wanted to stay home and keep you company, and now it turns out you’re already over it!"

"Haha!" Wu Xia laughed heartily, "I’ll keep you company today. I’ve been here for quite a while and haven’t spent time with you. Today is the perfect opportunity."

"Really?" Lin Jiao was overjoyed and very excited.

"Yeah!" Wu Xia nodded, "We can also buy a car on the way, so it’ll be convenient for us to drive back home later!"

"Okay!"

After eating breakfast, the two left the house, and Wu Xia took Lin Jiao to browse the car market.

Hai City was not very large; the car market was basically concentrated near the industrial district on the north side of the city.

Wu Xia wasn’t very picky, after all the way back was mostly mountain roads, and it would mostly be Wu Gang who would be driving later on, so he just wanted to get a durable off-road vehicle.

The Prado was the first choice, but the Wrangler and the Mercedes were also options.

However, after seeing the actual vehicles, Wu Xia couldn’t muster any interest.

Lin Jiao, on the other hand, fell for the cute and endearing Wuling’s small electric car.

"Xia, this one’s not bad, I want this one!"

Lin Jiao was completely smitten by the cute design and couldn’t bring herself to leave, "And it’s cheap, just tens of thousands of yuan. We can leave it downtown, and it’ll be available anytime!"

"I’ve seen a lot of these on the streets recently; they’re much more convenient than the big car Yuting drives. It’s easier to go wherever I want to, and parking is a breeze."

"Huh?" Wu Xia felt awkward and scratched his head, "You need a driving license for this too?"

"I have a license!" Lin Jiao immediately took out her driver’s license, "When the driving school was recruiting students in town, Wu Tie signed me up. Even though they didn’t let me drive, I still got the license."

Wu Xia took the license, his face a picture of embarrassment. Indeed, in the past, you could get a license just by paying, especially in their small mountain villages.

"Xia, just buy this for me. Everyone says it’s as easy as a toy car. I can definitely drive it."

Seeing Lin Jiao so excited, Wu Xia found it hard to refuse. Tens of thousands of yuan was mere peanuts to him.

They paid and completed the paperwork without haggling, focusing on speed.

In less than an hour, everything was ready. Lin Jiao took it for a short drive and got the hang of it straight away.

It really was no different from a toy car.

"See? I’m the smart one. With such a large park, if you don’t drive a shuttle car and rely on walking, who knows when you’ll get there!"

Lin Jiao drove while proudly flaunting her skills.

"They say the best thing about electric cars is that you can drive and fondle boobs at the same time!"

Wu Xia revealed a sly smile and reached out to grab Lin Jiao’s chest.

"Ah!" Lin Jiao was startled and braked quickly, her face blushing, "What are you doing? People outside will see us!"

"That’ll teach you to be cocky!" Wu Xia pulled Lin Jiao into a forceful kiss, taking the wind out of her sails.

Lin Jiao instantly became obedient and drove quietly.

Soon, they came upon a parallel import dealership. Wu Xia’s eyes lit up as he spotted the lifted version of the Ford F-150.

That bulk, that stance, was simply every man’s dream.

Besides, this type of vehicle is commonly used by rural folks abroad for work, very convenient for heavy-duty tasks and durable.

Wu Xia already thought about getting one for Wu Gang, imagining his joy upon seeing the truck.

"This one!"

Wu Xia immediately told Lin Jiao to stop the car, and the two headed toward the exhibit area.

The salesperson saw them arriving in a Wuling minivan and immediately rolled her eyes, too indifferent to bother with them.

But it should be known that this place sold parallel import vehicles, each worth over a million yuan.

The owners of such cars were either off-road enthusiasts or big-time construction bosses.

Two youngsters, timid in a Wuling—are they even able to afford it?

Moreover, once Wu Xia got out of the car, he immediately took out his phone to take pictures and send them to Wu Gang, making it seem like he was just there to show off on social media.

After Wu Xia looked around and saw no salespeople approaching, he called out, "Excuse me, could someone get the keys to open the door? I’d like to have a look at the interior!"

"If you can’t afford it, don’t look. Taking a few photos is enough!"

A female salesperson said impatiently.

Wu Xia’s brows furrowed slightly, "What do you mean? How can I buy it if you don’t let me see inside?"

"It’s exactly what it sounds like!" The woman didn’t give Wu Xia any face as she mocked, "I’ve seen plenty of you people coming here to take photos and show off every day. Letting you take photos outside is already generous, and you still want to go inside? Dream on!"

"After you’ve taken your photos, get lost. Don’t disturb our business here. It’s bad luck!"

"What’s with your attitude!" Lin Jiao couldn’t tolerate it anymore, "Why would we come if we’re not buying a car? With customer service like this, who would buy from you?"

"It’s none of your business who buys. But you definitely can’t afford it!" The female salesperson sneered coldly.

"Who says we can’t afford it? We came here specifically to buy this car!" Lin Jiao’s face turned red with the humiliation of being looked down upon.

"Oh, now you’re putting on airs!" the saleswoman scoffed, "Well, buy one then. If you do, I’ll livestream myself eating shit while doing a handstand!"
