Prince charming, your persona has collapsed! -
Chapter 822 - 338: Buying a Car, The Disparity of My Cousin-in-law_3
After a stroll around the showroom, Lu Wanting and Su Qing remarked that they were growing more fond of Mercedes-Benz.
"When we get back, I'm definitely asking my dad to buy me one!" Lu Wanting declared confidently.
Su Qing, holding onto Lu Wanting's arm, teased with a laugh, "Why not ask Xiao Yong to buy you one instead!"
As she said this, they happened to walk by the seating area near the sofas.
The comment was clearly overheard by everyone nearby.
Lu Wanting chuckled lightly and glanced at Peng Xiaoyong who was sitting nearby. She said playfully, "Your sister-in-law says you should buy me a Mercedes; what do you think?"
"I..."
Peng Xiaoyong's face showed obvious embarrassment, but he still stammered, "If you give me two..."
"Alright, I was just joking! We're done here!" Lu Wanting addressed the group with a smile.
Peng Xiaoyong glanced over at Zhou Yuwen, thinking to himself, let's see how you get out of this now.
Earlier, when Zhou Yuwen was chatting with the saleswoman, Peng Xiaoyong was so embarrassed he almost couldn't handle it.
Because Zhou Yuwen was really putting on a show.
He acted as if he was actually planning to buy a car.
Even requesting to see available stock.
He asked her whether, if he placed an order today, he'd be able to drive the car home immediately.
The female saleswoman took him seriously and even assured him, although it would be challenging, that if he placed the order today, she would make arrangements for him to drive it away.
Well, arrangements aside, let's see how that plays out.
Now that Su Qing and the others had finished looking at the cars,
everyone was waiting to see how Zhou Yuwen would navigate the situation.
Instead, Zhou Yuwen sat upright, looking completely serious, and asked Su Qing what she thought of the cars.
Su Qing replied casually, "They're alright."
"Zhou Yuwen, how about we just get a Mercedes, what do you think?"
Peng Xiaoyong thought to himself, these two are truly playing the role.
Zhou Yuwen replied to Su Qing, saying there was only one black E-Class car available in the showroom.
"And there are two C-Classes, one black and one white. Which one do you like?"
Su Qing answered, "If it were for me, I'd definitely go with the E-Class. But since it's for my mom, I think being too flashy isn't great. The white C-Class seems just fine."
"Of course, if you're buying it for me, I wouldn't complain either."
As she said this, Su Qing playfully sat herself down on Zhou Yuwen's lap.
The saleswoman nearby could only respond with an awkward smile.
Zhou Yuwen chuckled, "You wish!"
"I'll let you drive the X7. I'll buy another one for myself."
"I don't want that!" Su Qing pouted.
The two of them began flirting openly.
Peng Xiaoyong coughed and suggested, "How about checking out another dealership instead."
"Sure! Hey, Yuwen, how about we go check out BMW next?" Lu Wanting chimed in playfully.
With these words,
the salesperson's expression visibly shifted, quick enough for everyone to notice.
Fortunately, Zhou Yuwen didn't disappoint her.
Zhou Yuwen said, "Hold on a moment."
"That white C-Class, the total is 360,000 yuan, right?"
These details had been discussed earlier. In fact, Zhou Yuwen thought that buying a C-Class for his girlfriend's mother was reasonable and appropriate.
360,000 yuan was the top trim level, complete with ambient lighting package.
"Yes, that's correct."
"Can the car be delivered today?"
"Definitely."
"Alright then."
Zhou Yuwen immediately handed his bank card to Su Qing and instructed the saleswoman to guide Su Qing through the contract-signing process.
Zhou Yuwen spoke so nonchalantly, but the people around him were left staring in confusion.
???
Buying the car wasn't a big deal.
But Su Qing signing the contract?!
"Honey, are you sure you want it signed in my name? Isn't it supposed to be for my mom?"
Su Qing playfully took the bank card, even changing how she addressed him.
Zhou Yuwen responded, "Then let your mom come sign for it."
"No, hehe, just sign it under my name! Love you!"
Not caring about anyone around them, Su Qing bent down and planted a playful kiss on Zhou Yuwen's cheek.
A car worth 360,000 yuan.
Supposedly for Pan Min.
But the name on the paperwork would definitely be Su Qing's.
This was a sign to Pan Min, proof that Zhou Yuwen wasn't the type just messing around.
Still, onlookers unacquainted with the deeper dynamics couldn't help but feel stunned.
Even Lu Wanting paused in surprise.
Su Qing followed the saleswoman to complete the paperwork.
Yet Lu Wanting kept looking at Zhou Yuwen without saying a word.
Knowing Zhou Yuwen had money was one thing.
But seeing him lavishly spoil his girlfriend was entirely different.
"You're really good to your girlfriend. What made you suddenly decide to gift her a car?" Lu Wanting asked, without revealing her true intentions.
Zhou Yuwen replied, "No, I actually met her mother recently. The car is meant for her mom, but it'll be registered in her name."
"Wait, if it's registered under her name, doesn't that mean it legally belongs to her?" Lu Wanting blinked in curiosity.
Zhou Yuwen nodded. "You could say that."
"Oh."
Lu Wanting's tone carried a subtle hint of disappointment for reasons unknown.
The contract-signing process was remarkably quick. Before long, a brand new white Mercedes C-Class was parked outside the dealership.
Sitting in the driver's seat, Su Qing beamed with happiness. "Zhou Yuwen, take a picture for me! I want to show my mom!"
Zhou Yuwen said, "Why don't you drive it over and show her in person? She'll be even happier."
On the way back, Su Qing drove the car herself. Feeling that going alone was boring, she invited Lu Wanting to ride in the passenger seat.
Because during their time checking out the cars earlier, Su Qing and Lu Wanting had exchanged quite a bit of conversation. Su Qing knew Lu Wanting liked the car as well.
Now that there was a chance, why not let Lu Wanting experience the joy together?
However, Lu Wanting didn't seem particularly cheerful.
Thinking back to earlier when Su Qing had joked with her, saying "If you really like it, ask Xiao Yong to buy one for you."
Lu Wanting had laughed it off, saying "No way."
"Boyfriends are not husbands yet. Even if they were husbands, he still wouldn't buy you a car!"
Now, recalling those words, Lu Wanting couldn't help but feel a little foolish.
Alright, she was just a good girl who wasn't materialistic.
She always believed she had the ability to live the life she wanted on her own.
Without needing help from a man.
But today, watching a boy casually gift his girlfriend a Mercedes-Benz.
Right in front of her!
It would be impossible to say that Lu Wanting felt absolutely nothing.
