Wen Shu drove them to the Mercedes-Benz 4S store.

“Mr. Lin, I don’t know much about cars. I might not be able to educate you on them.”

“It’s fine. We’re just looking around.”

With that, Lin Yi and Li Chuhan strolled around the 4S shop. Wen Shu sat in the resting area at the side and chatted with her best friend on WeChat.

Wen Shu, “Yangyang, do you remember the person I told you about yesterday?”

!!

Her best friend: “Which one? You told me about a total of three men yesterday. I did some evaluation. That product manager seems to be quite good. At his level, his annual salary is at least 500,000 yuan. Moreover, he’s a native of Yangcheng. He has a car and a house. His conditions are indeed not bad.”

Wen Shu said, “It’s not that product manager. It’s the third man I mentioned to you. He’s the one who donated all his money and drives a Shari.”

Her best friend, “Him? Just go straight past him . Although he graduated from a famous school and will earn a lot in the future, such a person usually has an abnormal brain. Who knows when he might donate all the money he saves in the future? Don’t even think about it.”

Wen Shu, “But did you know he came to Yangcheng today? I was in charge of receiving him. As soon as he got off the plane, he went straight to the Mercedes-Benz 4S shop and said that he wanted to buy a car.”

Her best friend, “Huh? What’s going on? He wants to buy a car after getting off the plane?”

Wen Shu said, “It’s true. We’re in the shop. We don’t have a car and it’s inconvenient for us to travel. That’s why he wants to buy a means of transport now.”

After saying that, Wen Shu even sent her best friend a photo of the scene to prove that she was telling the truth.

Best friend, “It’s just a car. Don’t make a fuss.”

Best friend, “Although he donated all his money, it’s impossible for him to not have a single cent remaining. It’s normal to buy a car to travel around. Don’t make a fuss.”

Wen Shu, “But they shouldn’t have this much to spare, right?”

Best friend: “Sister, do you think you’re rich just because you bought a Mercedes-Benz? Can’t you be a little more worldly and act less like a hick?”

Best friend: “You also drive a Mercedes-Benz. Are you lacking money?”

Wen Shu said, “I’m just afraid of missing out. After all, he’s a man who’s about to donate tens of millions.”

Best friend, “Alright, I’ll teach you another way to determine if a man is rich.”

Wen Shu, “How? Spit it out.”

Best friend, “It’s said that a watch to a man is the same as a diamond to a woman. Although the car he drives isn’t worth much, you’ll know everything you look at his watch. Every successful man has a watch that matches his status. You’ll know the truth when you see it.”

Wen Shu tried her best to recall the scene when she met Lin Yi yesterday. She realized that he didn’t seem to be wearing a watch.

At the thought of this, Wen Shu tilted her head and looked at Lin Yi, who was strolling around. She realized that there seemed to be a watch on his wrist, but it was dark and she couldn’t see what brand it was.

Wen Shu said, “I see the watch he was wearing, but I ca ‘t tell what brand it was.”

Best friend. “Give me a rough description. I’ve seen many watches before and know my stuff.”

Wen Shu said, “I can’t see it clearly. It’s dark and the dial is colorful. It doesn’t look simple at all. It looks especially exaggerated. Moreover, the strap is made of rubber.”

Best friend, “A rubber watch strap? Even my nephew in junior high school doesn’t wear a rubber watch strap anymore. This kind of STEM-field man is too lowly. I can’t believe he actually wears such a watch. One look and you can tell that he’s a stubborn person. He’s not on the same level as us at all.”

Wen Shu, “Are you sure it’s not worth anything?”

Her best friend, “Of course it’s not worth anything! Let me tell you, the most valuable type of watch is a mechanical watch. Its strap is either steel chain or pure leather. There are definitely no rubber straps. Moreover, expensive watches all have distinct characteristics. The decoration of the dial is very simple, and the watch he brought looks like a primary school student’s watch. It’s so cheap.”

Wen Shu said, “I also think it’s quite ordinary. The watch that my boyfriend brought him costs more than 10,000 yuan. Even that looks better than his.”

Best friend, “So, listen to my advice. Don’t think too much about it. Don’t think that you shouldn’t give up just because he’s handsome. Without money, he’s useless. You should focus on that product manager.”

Wen Shu said, “Don’t talk nonsense. I’m good friends with that product manager. I also have a boyfriend.”

Best friend, “Tsk, if you have a boyfriend, why are you inviting him out for a trip to Fookeat next month? What an obvious lie.”

In order to prevent her best friend from criticizing her any further, Wen Shu put down her phone and did not reply. She began to check the weather in Fookeat.

If it was going to rain, she would have to change the date in advance.

“This way, Sir.”

As Wen Shu was checking the weather, she saw the female salesperson of the 4S shop walking over with Lin Yi and Li Chuhan.

“Mr. Lin, are you sure you like that red G63?”

“Yeah.” Lin Yi nodded.

“Although there is an available car, the red color model is 100,000 yuan more expensive. I have to tell you this in advance.”

In order to avoid unnecessary drama, the female salesperson mentioned the increase in price in advance.

“Alright, I know the market price of the G63. I know that the price will be higher. Help me calculate how much the high-end model costs.”

“I did some calculations for you just now. This will be a red high-end G63 with an AMG sports kit. The price of the car is 2.79 million yuan. Coupled with insurance and purchase tax, it’ll be about 3.05 million yuan.”

“Alright, let me swipe my card.”

Wen Shu was shocked when she heard the price of the car. She almost dropped her phone.

“The G class is that expensive? I thought it’s only a million yuan.”

“Ma’am, this gentleman is buying a G63, not a G500. In terms of price, it’s almost more than a million yuan more expensive.”

Wen Shu’s head buzzed as she listened.

Wasn’t he out of money? How could he buy a car worth more than three million yuan?

‘Did he buy it with government funds?’

However, the funds given by the city seemed to only be a little over five million yuan. Wasn’t it too extravagant for him to spend more than three million yuan without even blinking the moment he arrived here?

Should I report this to Secretary Wu?

This was too much!

At the thought of this, Wen Shu stood up and said politely,

“Mr. Lin, I’m going to the washroom. Excuse me.”

“Okay.”

After saying goodbye, Wen Shu walked toward the corner and dialed Wu Zhaoyou’s number.

“Have you received Mr. Lin? Is everything going smoothly?” Wu Zhaoyou asked.

“Secretary Wu, I have something to tell you.” Wen Shu did not want to talk nonsense and went straight to the point. This was the only way to get the money back in time.

“What is it? Did something go wrong?”

“The person called Lin Yi just bought a car worth more than three million yuan with the government funds.”

“You must be joking!”

“I also felt that this matter is quite overboard. The funds were intended to be used to build roads, but he actually used them to fill his own pockets. We’ve misjudged him.”

“I have to say that you’re joking again!” Wu Zhaoyou said.

“The five million yuan in funds is still with the city finance department. It hasn’t been distributed yet. How could he use the funds to buy anything? What kind of reporter are you? How dare you spread misinformation?”
