The receptionist's shrewd gaze caught every shift in Gong Lin's expression.
With a slight smile, she glanced at Jiang Chen, feeling a secret delight.
Living off a woman, huh? Look, the little rich girl doesn't even want to do it. I'm curious to see what you'll do now? Just don't take back what you said!
Jiang Chen noticed the receptionist standing still with a mocking smile on her face and immediately realized what she was thinking, laughing, "What are you standing there for? Take us to see the cars!"
"See the cars? Are you really going to look at the cars? This car costs fifteen million!" The receptionist looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief.
Jiang Chen said dismissively, "What about fifteen million? I said let's see the cars."
The receptionist paused, then turned to look at Gong Lin, who glanced at Jiang Chen but said nothing.
"Alright, let's go see the cars!"
With a smirk at the corner of her mouth, the receptionist led Jiang Chen and Gong Lin to a majestic and formidable car, pointing at it, "This is the Knight XV!"
As she spoke, the receptionist gave Jiang Chen a contemptuous look.
Keep pretending, let's see how long you can keep this act up!
"Hey! Look, that guy living off his woman is actually going to look at the cars!"
"Just looking. Didn't you see that little rich girl's face change when she heard the price of the car? The guy said he wanted to see the cars, and she didn't even speak up. Obviously, she's dissatisfied but just keeping face for that freeloader, she surely won't buy it!"
"Right, that guy doesn't even have a clue, insists on seeing the cars. What's the point if he can't afford it? Won't that be more embarrassing?"
The other receptionists whispered amongst themselves as they watched Jiang Chen and his companion.
But Jiang Chen ignored their looks and kept his gaze fixed on the Knight XV.
What a great car!
It wasn't just towering and powerful, but its lines were also sleek and robust, the thickened bulletproof steel plates gave it a sense of weight and steadiness impossible for any man to resist,
"This is a good car, I like it, it's the one!" Jiang Chen said, patting the car's body and nodding vigorously.
The receptionist blinked, looked at Gong Lin, then back at Jiang Chen, "Sir, are you saying you want to buy this car?"
"Yes!" Jiang Chen nodded.
A hint of mocking laughter flickered in the receptionist's eyes, still pretending? You're quite the actor!
"Gong Lin, I'm about to buy a fifteen-million car, and as the chairman, it doesn't seem appropriate for you to keep driving yours. Here's an idea, you should also buy a car worth tens of millions!" Jiang Chen turned to look at Gong Lin.
Gong Lin hurriedly waved her hands, "No, no, no, I'm not buying!"
"No way, you must buy! I didn't let you drive here just for you to drive back in your car," Jiang Chen said with a light laugh.
Gong Lin paused, and then she realized why Jiang Chen hadn't let her drive over, a warm feeling passing through her heart!
"What's the most expensive sports car you have here?" Jiang Chen turned to ask the receptionist.
The receptionist was briefly stunned. Something didn't feel right. How come this guy, who'd been living off a woman, now appeared to be taking charge?
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Seeing the receptionist spaced out, Jiang Chen frowned and said.
The receptionist snapped back to reality and blurted out in response to Jiang Chen's previous question, "The Aston Martin One-77."
"Where is the car?" Jiang Chen asked again.
"Oh, it's over there!" The receptionist pointed somewhat distractedly towards a car not far away.
At that moment, the receptionist was still trying to figure out who was really in charge between Jiang Chen and Gong Lin.
By their attire, it was Gong Lin, but the conversation that had just taken place between them was distinctly commandeering from the man!
The receptionist looked at Jiang Chen with suspicion filling her eyes!
The two approached a silver-gray streamlined Aston Martin sports car, its gorgeous design immediately capturing Gong Lin's attention.
"This car looks pretty good, too. What do you think, Gong Lin?" Jiang Chen turned to ask the woman beside him.
Affection shone in Gong Lin's eyes as she looked at Jiang Chen, and she nodded with a smile.
"Hey, look, what's going on here? Why do I feel like it's the guy being kept by a little rich woman?"
"What... is happening?"
"Oh come on, isn't it obvious? That freeloader has got some skills, totally has that little rich woman wrapped around his finger!"
The receptionists at the door, with nothing better to do, had been paying close attention to Jiang Chen and his companion.
"If you like it, that's great!" Jiang Chen nodded and turned to the receptionist, "I'll take this car as well!"
The receptionist was flustered for a moment and reminded him, "Sir, this car is also fifteen million!"
"Swipe the card!" Jiang Chen said with a slight smile, taking out a bank card and handing it to the receptionist.
The receptionist raised an eyebrow, thinking Jiang Chen was still pretending and said with a hint of mockery, "Sir, a card with insufficient balance would just... Wanguo Bank Black Gold Card?!"
When they saw Jiang Chen's bank card, the receptionists gasped, swallowing their next words!
"Wanguo Bank Black Gold Card?!"
"How is that possible!"
"Dressed like that, how could he possibly have a Wanguo Bank Black Gold Card?!"
"This, this, this... What kind of gold digger is this! He's a real tycoon, low-key terrifying tycoon!"
The group of receptionists at the door exclaimed in shock, then all simultaneously turned to look at the girl attending to Jiang Chen and his companion, eyes filled with envy and jealousy. Two cars, thirty million, how much commission is that?!
"Why are you still spacing out?" Jiang Chen waved his hand in front of the receptionist's eyes.
The receptionist suddenly came to her senses and spoke respectfully, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will process your documents immediately!"
Taking Jiang Chen's bank card, the receptionist rushed to the counter.
"Look at that guy fawning over them!"
"Right, it's just selling two cars, is it that big of a deal?"
"That guy got lucky!"
"Exactly, if it wasn't for that low-key tycoon, she wouldn't have had the chance to serve such a handsome rich guy!"
Several receptionists looked on enviously at the one processing the paperwork for Jiang Chen, muttering sour comments.
Jiang Chen chuckled and shook his head. He called out to Gong Lin and the two of them sat in the waiting area, Gong Lin snuggling up to him like a little woman. Jiang Chen glanced at Gong Lin. Because he felt guilty, he didn't push her away.
"Sir, Madam, here is the car purchase contract. Please have a look, and if there are no issues, you can sign," the receptionist said with a smile, bringing two contracts over to Jiang Chen and Gong Lin.
Jiang Chen looked over the car purchase contract, then handed it to Gong Lin.
"I can take the car now, right?" Jiang Chen looked up at the receptionist.
The receptionist nodded, "Of course, once you sign and swipe your card, you can drive away! We will handle all the paperwork and insurance for you!"
"Great, let's swipe the card!" Jiang Chen nodded.
The receptionist quickly passed the POS machine and Jiang Chen's bank card she was holding.
After swiping the card and signing, Jiang Chen turned to Gong Lin, "I'm heading to my mother's place now. Will you come with me now or..."
"I need to deal with some company business first. Send me your location when you get there, and I'll come over later," Gong Lin said softly.
"Alright," Jiang Chen nodded.
Once everything was settled, Jiang Chen drove the Knight straight to his mother's hometown, Dingjing, Wutong County, Shen Family Village.
Gong Lin watched as Jiang Chen drove away, then took out her phone to start making arrangements.
She hadn't told the truth just now. Not accompanying Jiang Chen wasn't only because of company business.
As a daughter-in-law meeting Jiang Chen's mother for the first time, especially in his mother's hometown, she had to be well-prepared.
She couldn't let her husband lose face in his rural hometown!
