Gu Jingze thought for a while before saying, "One that is not too expensive since it's for a girl . "
Lin Che quickly added, "Right, right . Not too expensive or other people will get jealous . "
Gu Jingze browsed through the catalog and said, "This will be good . Get a yellow one so it'll be bright and you won't get lost on the road . " Gu Jingze looked at her mockingly .
Lin Che's face darkened, "I'm not a pig . I won't get lost on the road . "
As she said that, she looked down at the catalog and saw that Gu Jingze was referring to a Porsche 911 . She was shocked .
She thought when he meant something not too expensive, he would be talking about a car worth about 200,000 yuan . She did not expect his definition of 'not too expensive' to be…
"Gu Jingze, isn't this too expensive?" Lin Che asked .
Gu Jingze replied, "Why would this be too expensive?"
Lin Che said, "This is a few million . Is that not expensive?"
Gu Jingze said, "If that was true, then hiring a chauffeur for you would be actually even more expensive . "
"Huh?"
Gu Jingze continued, "Chauffeurs for the Gu family have an annual income of three million yuan . "
"…"
Lin Che initially thought that they were living hard lives and that he was always just so responsible and treated her well . Now she knew… they were rich people too .
Gu Jingze had already gestured for the staff to order the car .
The shop owner gleefully proceeded to make the order .
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che and said, "You wait here for a while . I'm going to pick up the car and check it for you . "
Lin Che said, "I'll go too . "
Gu Jingze turned around and lightly touched her nose, "Be good and wait here . The car needs to be test-driven . If it's not safe, it's best that you not be there . "
Lin Che could not help but feel embarrassed when he touched her nose .
She looked on as Gu Jingze left before she turned back .
With nothing else to do, she walked around the shop . This was a chain store for luxury cars . Besides selling cars, there was a supermarket selling car parts at the side . Catered to wealthy customers, the shop was styled to look like a posh café at a hotel lobby . There were cushioned seats everywhere and coffee tables with beautiful decor on top of them .
Lin Che noticed that some snacks were placed on the table and she quickly took some . She might as well eat them .
The staff was courteous to Lin Che, knowing that she came with Gu Jingze . Three or four of them were shadowing her, ready if she ended up needing them . They were also looking enviously at her .
Although Lin Che was already a star, she acted in only one television series and it was in ancient settings . Those old costumes might have made it difficult to recognize her, so the staff did not know who she was exactly .
Just as Lin Che was grabbing snacks, she heard a familiar, classy voice ringing from behind . She immediately turned to look .
"Lin Li, to make you come here with me . This Qin Qing, I have no idea what he's so busy with . I wanted to buy a car and it's unfortunate that you had to accompany me instead," Chen Meili, a classy looking madam of the Qin family, was being held by Lin Li as they entered the place .
Beside them were several other attentive staff .
Everybody recognized Lin Li and knew that Chen Meili was a madam of the Qin family . They tended to both of them with great care and respect .
Lin Che did not expect to meet Lin Li and Chen Meili here .
The mother and daughter-in-law were here to buy a car too…
Like enemies on a narrow road .
Just then, Chen Meili raised her head and saw Lin Che standing there .
"Eh? Isn't that Lin Che? I'm not seeing things, right? Is that her?"
Lin Li also looked up and saw Lin Che . She was surprised .
Chen Meili knew Lin Che since she was young as Lin Che and Qin Qing went to the same school . Lin Che would always come over and play with Qin Qing, but Chen Meili always disliked Lin Che and wished that she would not keep playing with him .
Chen Meili walked over . Some people still did not recognize Lin Che .
Looking from afar, it looked like her . As she got closer, it looked like something had changed about her .
Lin Che had become much prettier as if she had blossomed . She used to be shabby like a small family jade but now, she looked natural and pure . Her clothes were elegant . Her whole body seemed to be surrounded by a clear stream . She looked very good .
However, Chen Meili still disliked her, "Lin Che, what are you doing here? Are you buying a car?"
There was a hint of mockery in her tone because she knew that the cars here were not affordable for just anybody .
Lin Che looked at Chen Meili; she was older after all . She held herself back, "Yes, Aunty Qin . What a coincidence . You two carry on; I'm going over there to look . "
"Hey, Lin Che . I still want to talk to you . Why are you running away?" Chen Meili stopped Lin Che in her tracks .
Lin Che turned back .
Chen Meili tested her, "Have you met our Qin Qing recently?"
Lin Che replied, "No . "
"Really never? Or are you faking it?" Chen Meili scoffed .
Lin Che frowned and noticed the hatred in Chen Meili's voice, "Aunty Qin, if you have something to say, just shoot . "
Chen Meili was unhappy to see Lin Che holding her head high with disdain on her face . She said, "Lin Che, I heard you got into trouble the other time and were brought to the police station . They said that it was our Qin Qing who helped get you out?"
So it was about that .
Qin Qing did help that time .
Lin Che turned to look at Chen Meili and said, "Yes, he helped me . "
Chen Meili looked at her and hit the table angrily, "Lin Che, don't mind Aunty's words, but Qin Qing is already engaged to your sister . He is now your brother-in-law . "
Lin Che stared at Chen Meili strangely, "And what's wrong with my brother-in-law helping me?"
"You…" Chen Meili looked at Lin Che scornfully, "I've been aware of your feelings toward Qin Qing for a long time, but I'm warning you; you don't deserve our Qin Qing . He will never like an illegitimate child like you . What's gotten into you now? Just because you're a celebrity and you have money, you think you can start to think about Qin Qing again? Well, I can tell you now . No door is open for you . "
Lin Che listened to her ridicule and smiled silently .
At the side, Lin Li tried to look humble in front of her future mother-in-law, but she could not conceal the smugness in her gentle eyes . Looking at Lin Che with a smirk on her mouth, she was enjoying this exchange .
"Aunty Qin, you must be mistaken . Qin Qing is just a friend to me and even more so my relative now . Although Qin Qing is a good guy, he's nothing exceptional . All girls may like him, but I have my own boyfriend now . I have no interest in Qin Qing at all!"
