Chapter 87 New Investment, High-End Used Car Dealership
Song Qi didn't take it seriously and didn't heed his daughter's words, treating them merely as amusement.

"Your dad is still young, and you expect me to start lying at home?" Song Qi laughed. "I can't stay still. I'll enjoy your blessings when I'm really old."

"Besides, you and your friends are just starting out in your business, and it's not time to see any returns yet. How could Dad hold you back?"

Song Youan understood her father's personality. Even if her father knew the truth one day, let alone that she hadn't revealed her assets to him yet, he wouldn't be able to stay at home and enjoy his retirement peacefully.

He would feel uncomfortable if he wasn't made to do something.

She's still at work, but that doesn't stop her from getting a gym membership. In her words, she has so much energy she doesn't know where to put it.

So she didn't force him, but she was thinking that she could take advantage of the opportunity of her father's auto repair shop closing down to help him plan a good business.

She's quite adept at bridging information gaps between two worlds, but she's really not good at investing in a business in 2024 when most industries are already saturated.

So after dinner, Song Youan invited Chi Yu out for a drink.

"invest?"

Inside the elegant and tranquil bar, Chi Yu, dressed casually, looked at Song You'an with a puzzled expression and asked, "A sudden idea?"

From the perspective of an industry insider, the current market conditions do not present a very good outlook for most investment sectors.

Song Youan nodded without denying it. Trusting Chi Yu, she said frankly, "I want to find something for my dad to do. He can't stand being idle."

Upon hearing this, Chi Yu's doubts deepened.

She didn't know much about Song You'an's background, but she always felt that Song You'an's family must be very wealthy, which would explain why she had the ability to take over Lanting at such a young age.

Therefore, in Chi Yu's mind, Song You'an's father should be a very powerful financial tycoon, or a big shot in other industries.

But judging from Song You'an's tone, her father seemed to have nothing better to do.

"What did Uncle do before?" Chi Yu asked tentatively.

Song Youan thought for a moment: "I'll do some work related to cars."

She wasn't lying, but the answer was too broad.

Song Youan thought for a moment and added, "This investment isn't really for making money, although it would be great if we could make some money. The main reason is for my dad; I don't want him to work too hard."

Chi Yu nodded, clearing his mind of all distractions and focusing solely on Song You'an's well-being.

After a long silence, the two drank half of their wine together before Chi Yu finally had an idea: "There is something that is feasible."

"tell me the story."

"Used car dealership!"

As soon as Chi Yu finished speaking, Song Youan's eyes lit up.

A used car dealership, frankly speaking, isn't it just a middleman? Then her expertise is a perfect fit!

Chi Yu could tell from her reaction that his idea was in line with her wishes.

With her expertise aligned with the job, Song Youan had an idea. She said, "And what if we only deal in high-end models, reselling those worth over a million?"

Chi Yu nodded: "That's feasible. This will raise the transaction threshold for car dealerships, politely reject low-priced cars, reduce business volume, and achieve your goal of not making your uncle too tired."

Song Youan's excited eyes shone even brighter under the dim yellow light as she began to plan how to hand the car dealership over to her father.

"By the way, do you still have the invitation Mr. Chen gave me?" Song Youan suddenly asked. Chi Yu nodded: "In my office."

"Okay, I'll go pick it up tomorrow."

The next morning, Song Youan got up and came out of her room to find her father dressed in sportswear and about to go out.

"Dad, aren't you going to work today?"

Song Qi changed into sneakers, picked up his gym bag, and said, "I'm off today. There are steamed dumplings and porridge in the steamer. Dad made them this morning. Remember to eat them. I'm going to the gym."

Seeing this, Song Youan laughed and said, "You're really something. Isn't it good to rest at home when you have a rare break? Your equipment is quite complete. Is there anything you need? I'll go buy it for you today since I'm free."

"Don't waste money. These were all given to me by the gym when I signed up for the membership. I didn't pay a penny for the whole set."

Song Youan smiled. Although she knew that the money would come from the sheep, she didn't want to spoil her father's mood and chimed in, "That's great. You really got a good deal."

Song Qi chuckled, reminded his daughter again to eat, and then went out.

Song Youan ate something, then took Youzi downstairs for a walk, and after putting on some simple makeup, she went out.

Yan Fei had already driven and was waiting at the entrance of the residential area.

"What are the plans for today?"

Yan Fei opened the passenger door for Song You'an and looked at her, asking...

Song Youan glanced at the time and said, "I'm scheduled to have driving lessons at the driving school at ten o'clock, then grab a quick bite to eat, and go to the Empress Dowager Cixi to buy some things in the afternoon."

Although Yan Fei was fired from the driving school, he and the driving school manager were old friends, so Yan Fei was the one who taught Song Youan to drive later.

Actually, she just wanted the driving school's practice area because it was convenient. If it weren't for the fact that there wasn't a spacious and practical practice area in Jinghai City, she could have completely skipped the driving school, since there were already instructors available.

The driving instructors were all envious of Yan Fei, because everyone knew that Song You'an was originally just a student at the driving school. It was his good luck that she was randomly assigned to Yan Fei. No one expected that Song You'an was actually a hidden little rich girl.

On the day the driving school laid off employees, Yan Fei was taken away by this young rich woman. When he came back, he was driving a Mercedes-Benz, and recently he switched to a Bentley.

These two cars together are worth nearly eight million, more than a coach could earn in a lifetime.

Although everyone knows that Yan Fei is just a driver, everyone has vanity. Even if it's not their own, driving a luxury car every day can make them feel very satisfied.

In the manager's office, Manager Cai handed a cigarette to Yan Fei.

Yan Fei waved his hand: "I've given it up."

Manager Cai was taken aback, somewhat surprised: "You, a heavy smoker, can actually quit smoking?"

"You'an doesn't like the smell of smoke, so I won't smoke," Yan Fei said truthfully.

"Oh my, you're calling her that so affectionately. What's up, you like her?" Manager Cai asked with a gossipy expression.

Yan Fei quickly shook his head: "Nonsense! What kind of toad am I? How dare I like someone?"

"You're quite self-aware." Manager Cai chuckled, offering a friendly reminder to Yan Fei: "It's right that you don't like it. What they value is your character. Don't let your impulsiveness cause you to lose such a good job."

"I know." Yan Fei nodded, glanced out the window, and stood up when he saw Song You'an coming out of the women's restroom. "Then I'll go over there. You should smoke less and live a couple more years."

Manager Cai smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry about me. So you won't be coming back next quarter, right?"

Yan Fei gave an OK sign. Manager Cai smiled helplessly and muttered, "It would be best if he never came back."
