Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

Chapter 361 Let's not get involved in the affairs of young people.
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became awkward. Ruan Yusang didn't know what to say and silently stared at the floor without speaking.

Do you think he truly likes you?

Ruan Mingfeng continued to berate him, "He's only after you're young and pretty now."

"Take this house for example. He's clearly not short of money, so why didn't he put it in your name?"

"This shows he's wary of you! He doesn't really care about you at all!"

"Men are all fickle. In a few years, when you're older, what will you do if this scumbag dumps you?"

Ruan Mingfeng seemed to have finished scolding, and sighed deeply. Then he said earnestly, "Sangsang, your parents are doing this for your own good. It's better to end it now than to suffer for a long time. Take advantage of your youth and break up with him now."

Ruan Bao kept her head down and didn't speak, but when she heard Ruan Mingfeng say the word "break up," she stubbornly shook her head.

Ruan Mingfeng said with exasperation, "Sangsang, think about it carefully. What benefits have you gotten from being with him for so long?"

"It's just a Porsche 911, but cars depreciate. In 10 or 8 years, no one will want your car even for 30!"

“Listen to your dad. Call him now and break up with him. Then come back to Suzhou with us. Your mom and I have some connections here, and we'll find you a stable job. You can marry a local. That way, your mom and I can at least feel at ease.”

Yes, baby.

Chang Tinglan chimed in, "It's not so easy to enter a wealthy family. Look at those women on TV news who want to marry into wealth, how many of them end up with a good ending?"

"Although our family is not extremely wealthy, we can at least ensure you have enough to eat and wear."

"This time, please listen to your parents and come back with us, okay?"

Just then, "Drip drip drip—"

The sound of the electronic lock unlocking rang out.

The door was pushed open, and a handsome, tall figure appeared before the three of them.

The person who arrived was none other than Chen Yan.

Upon seeing Chen Yan, Ruan Bao's previously depressed mood suddenly brightened.

Like a ship adrift at sea suddenly spotting the light of a lighthouse, her eyes lit up, and she quickly went to meet it.

"You're here." Ruan Yusang's voice was filled with undisguised joy, and her fingers unconsciously gripped the hem of Chen Yan's clothes.

Chen Yan keenly sensed the heavy atmosphere in the living room. His gaze lingered on the ashen faces of Ruan's parents for a moment before he gently ruffled Ruan Yusang's hair and said, "Yes, I was just dealing with some things. I came over as soon as I finished."

Ruan Mingfeng snorted coldly: "If President Chen is busy, he should hurry up and deal with his work. Don't let us delay your important business."

Chang Tinglan tugged at her husband's sleeve, signaling him not to say such hurtful things, after all, he was Sangsang's boyfriend.

Chen Yan had already prepared himself mentally before coming, so he didn't take his father-in-law's sarcastic remarks to heart.

He took Ruan Bao's hand and walked straight inside, smiling as he said, "Uncle and Aunt, I'm sorry, something came up and I was delayed."

However, Ruan Mingfeng did not reply to him.

Chang Tinglan, on the other hand, was able to manage a forced smile.

Chen Yan didn't take it seriously, raised his hand to look at the time on his watch, "Uncle and Aunt, since it's our first meeting, I didn't know what you liked, so I took the liberty of preparing two gifts for you. One of them is upstairs, just one flight of stairs away."

Ruan Mingfeng said coldly, "No need. We're here to take Sangsang back to Suzhou."

Chang Tinglan seemed unwilling to make Chen Yan too embarrassed, so she smoothed things over by saying, "Alright, let's go take a look."

After saying that, he walked out of the house with the young couple.

Helpless, Ruan Mingfeng had no choice but to follow the three of them out.

Since Chen Yan said the gift he had prepared was upstairs, the four of them did not take the elevator. Instead, they walked to the emergency exit, opened the door, and climbed the stairs to the 29th floor.

Qianchao Bay has 30 floors. However, as is well known, although the top floor has a good view, it is not shaded from the sun and the temperature will be very high in summer. Therefore, the price of the top floor is actually cheaper, and the price of the second-to-top floor is the highest in the building.

The four of them, including Chen Yan, have arrived at the second-to-last floor apartment in Qianchao Bay.

The saleswoman in her uniform skirt immediately came up to greet Chen Yan and his group.

"Mr. Chen, we have already sent people to clean this house."

"After completing the formalities, you only need to add some furniture and you can move in immediately."

"This 268-square-meter apartment is the largest in the complex. It's on the 29th floor, which is also the best, golden floor. It would be very suitable as a wedding home."

"Since you were already a homeowner here, our boss instructed us to offer you the lowest price. This house is only 998 million, which is 50 cheaper than the market price..."

The saleswoman walked around introducing the house as she went.

In her opinion, the group of four, including Chen Yan, looked like they were there to buy a wedding house.

Ruan Mingfeng and Chang Tinglan were not focused on the words "wedding house"; they were shocked by the number '998 million'.

They all expected the house to be expensive, but they didn't expect it to be this expensive.

1000 million in 2015 was quite a lot!

In Suzhou, having 1000 million yuan in cash is enough to achieve financial freedom as long as you don't recklessly buy luxury goods!

"What does this kid mean?"

"Is he showing off his wealth in front of us?" Ruan Mingfeng thought to himself.

“Okay, then I’ll swipe the card,” Chen Yan said directly.

"Okay okay."

The saleswoman smiled broadly as she took out the contract and POS machine from her bag.

At this moment, Chen Yan suddenly turned to Chang Tinglan and said, "Auntie, please take out your ID card and sign the contract."

Ah? ?

Everyone present was stunned.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?
"You want to buy this house in my mother's name?"

Ruan Bao tugged at Chen Yan's sleeve, looking equally bewildered.

"correct."

Chen Yan nodded matter-of-factly, "Didn't I just say I prepared gifts for your aunt and uncle?"

Ruan Mingfeng and Chang Tinglan then realized what was happening.

No, shouldn't gifts be things like cigarettes, alcohol, or tea? Who would give a house right off the bat?

Chang Tinglan quickly waved her hand: "No, no, no, this is too precious, I can't accept it."

Chen Yan had anticipated her response, so he advised, "Here's what I'm thinking: you only have one daughter, Sangsang, and as she gets older, there will be no one to take care of her back in your hometown."

"I might as well buy an apartment in Hangzhou so I can retire here in the future."

"Moreover, this house is so close to Sangsang, so it's convenient for us to visit each other."

As Chen Yan spoke, he "snatched" Chang Tinglan's bag, took out her ID card, and handed it to the salesperson: "Hurry up and process the paperwork."

The saleswoman, being very perceptive, grabbed the ID card and hurriedly ran out.

Chang Tinglan wanted to run out and chase after him, but Ruan Yusang stopped her: "Oh, Mom, just accept it. It's his good intention."

The saleswoman was quick; she returned in less than 10 minutes.

"Auntie, as long as you sign your name and put your fingerprint here, this house will be yours."

The saleswoman smiled at Chang Tinglan and said.

Immediately afterwards, under Ruan Yusang's shoving, Chang Tinglan reluctantly signed her name.

The rest was much simpler. Chen Yan simply took out a black card and swiped the card to pay the full amount. Legally, this 268-square-meter riverside duplex now belonged entirely to Chang Tinglan.

Chang Tinglan never dreamed that she would own a large duplex apartment of more than 200 square meters on the banks of the Qiantang River in her lifetime.

This is a luxury mansion worth tens of millions!
She gave Ruan Mingfeng a meaningful look.

It's as if it's saying, "Old Ruan, aren't you embarrassed?"

"Didn't you just say that Chen Yan didn't put Sang Sang's name on the house because he was keeping an eye on her? Now that he's given me a house as a gift, what do you say about that?"

Ruan Mingfeng and Chang Tinglan had been married for decades, so he naturally understood the deeper meaning in his wife's eyes.

Although he was proud and unwilling to admit his misjudgment, he was still extremely shocked by the luxurious house in front of him.

Damn, a 1000 million yuan house was just given away so easily!

It makes me seem like I'm judging a gentleman by my own petty standards!
Haha! But even so, Sangsang can't be with you!

Who would want to entrust their precious daughter to a philandering playboy?

Just as Ruan Mingfeng was about to choose his words, Chen Yan spoke first: "Uncle and Aunt, it's almost lunchtime, let's go have a simple meal together?"

As the saying goes, one cannot hit a smiling face. Since Chen Yan had just gifted his wife a multi-million dollar mansion, Ruan Mingfeng couldn't very well refuse.

Chang Tinglan smiled and said, "Okay, let's have a meal together. But let me make this clear first, Xiao Chen, this meal is on me." With the help of the multi-million dollar mansion, Chang Tinglan's way of addressing Chen Yan had changed from "nameless" to "Xiao Chen".

Chen Yan laughed and said, "This meal is free, no need to spend any money."

Chang heard Lan not believe it, saying, "Where would such a good thing come from?"
Chen Yan said, "You'll know when you get there."

So, the four of them went to the basement.

The black Rolls-Royce Phantom, like a king in the night, quietly awaits the arrival of its master.

Ruan Mingfeng's eyes lit up when he saw the Phantom, and he exclaimed, "There are still a lot of rich people in this neighborhood. I've never seen a new Phantom like this on the road in Suzhou."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Phantom's headlights suddenly turned on, and the little golden figure on the front of the car slowly rose up, shimmering brightly under the lights.

Chen Yan smiled, took out his key, pressed a button, and considerately opened the car door for Ruan Mingfeng and Chang Tinglan: "Uncle and Aunt, please get in the car."

Ruan Mingfeng coughed awkwardly, then sat down in the leather seat in the back row, which was comparable to a first-class seat...

Half an hour later, the Rolls-Royce smoothly drove into a Bentley dealership.

Upon seeing this, Ruan Yusang stared wide-eyed in astonishment: "Honey, you're not going to buy a car for my dad, are you??"

"Buy a car?"

Ruan Mingfeng, whose attention was originally on the interior of the Phantom, subconsciously looked at Chen Yan.

Chang Tinglan, who was sitting next to her, also looked surprised.

Chen Yan has already shocked them enough today, and now he even wants to buy a car for her father?
"Presiding over this matter, Ruan Da is extremely perceptive."

Chen Yan nodded to Ruan Yusang, tacitly acknowledging her guess.

"what?"

"You're really going to buy my dad a car??"

Ruan Yusang was surprised that she had guessed correctly, and her beautiful eyes widened suddenly.

Buying a car is one thing, but this is a Bentley dealership!

While Bentley may not be quite as prestigious as Rolls-Royce, it is still an unattainable luxury for the average person.

Furthermore, even the cheapest Bentley model costs at least 300 million yuan.

"Xiao Chen, there's no need to buy a car!"

After a moment of stunned silence, Ruan Mingfeng spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice.

His way of addressing Chen Yan changed from "General Manager Chen" to "Little Chen".

"Uncle, I've already paid."

“It’s impossible to return it now. Sangsang told me that you’ve been mentioning wanting to change cars at home. Why not take this opportunity to just get a better one right away?”

Chen Yan explained his reasons.

Ruan Mingfeng blushed and coughed awkwardly twice. He hadn't expected his daughter to tell Chen Yan even this.

He really wanted to change cars; his family's Nissan Teana had been driven for 10 years, and its exterior and interior were already outdated.

But every time he brought up changing cars, Chang Tinglan would always say it wasn't necessary, that the family's money should be saved for their daughter's dowry.

"This"

Ruan Mingfeng was speechless, only moved. He felt that this 'son-in-law' was too considerate, and even his own son might not be able to do this.

At this moment, Chen Yan had already pushed open the car door and gotten out, then went around to the passenger side and considerately opened the car door for Ruan Bao.

Ruan Bao naturally took Chen Yan's hand and got out of the car.

This scene brought a smile of satisfaction to Chang Tinglan's face.

It seems that Xiao Chen treats our Sangsang quite well.

It's a pity he's not devoted enough. If only he could be good to only our Sangsang, that would be so wonderful.

Chang Tinglan herself didn't realize that now when she looked at Chen Yan, she had the same feeling as a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looked at him, the more pleasing he became.

The saleswoman quickly approached Chen Yan and bowed respectfully: "Mr. Chen, you've arrived. The Bentley Flying Spur is ready, as per your request."

Chen Yan nodded and pointed to Ruan Mingfeng beside him: "This car is registered in my father-in-law's name. Go get his ID to complete the paperwork."

At this point, Chen Yan was already addressing Ruan Mingfeng as his father-in-law.

Ruan Mingfeng was taken aback by the address, but did not object...

“Okay, okay, no problem.” The saleswoman turned to Ruan Mingfeng with a sweet smile: “Uncle, could you please show me your ID card so I can help you with the car pick-up procedures?”

Am I about to become a Bentley Flying Spur owner?
Thinking about this, Ruan Mingfeng felt somewhat dazed.

He stood there, mechanically taking out his ID card from his wallet, his fingers trembling slightly with excitement.

After taking the ID card, the saleswoman said, "It will take a little time to process the formalities. If Mr. Chen doesn't mind, I'll take you to the dining area on the second floor first."

Chen Yan looked at Ruan's parents and, seeing that they had no problem, nodded gently.

The dining area on the second floor is elegantly and exquisitely decorated, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a meticulously manicured garden landscape.

The waiter quickly served up an exquisite Western meal: French foie gras, Australian steak, black truffle pasta... Each dish was beautifully presented and exuded a wonderful aroma.

"No wonder you just said this lunch was free."

Chang Tinglan looked at the delicious food in front of her and joked with a smile.

Chen Yan smiled and said, "Auntie, please try this foie gras, it's quite delicious."

As he spoke, he used serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of foie gras and put it into Chang Tinglan's bowl.

Then he used his own chopsticks to pick up a piece and put it directly to Ruan Yusang's mouth.

Ruan Bao opened her rosy lips and put the foie gras that Chen Yan had picked up into her mouth.

Chang Tinglan smiled with satisfaction as she watched this scene.

The more she looked at Chen Yan, the more satisfied she became. This young man was not only rich, but also so well-mannered.

More importantly, judging from his interactions with Sangsang, it's easy to see that he genuinely cares for her.

Ruan Mingfeng cut a small piece of steak and put it in his mouth, then couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Chen, how much does this Bentley Flying Spur cost after all the way?"

“It’s the new Flying Spur V8 this year, and the price after taxes and fees is around 400 million.” Chen Yan said casually, “I think you have a refined and elegant temperament, and this car is more in line with your status.”

"400 million?!" Ruan Mingfeng quickly put down his wine glass. "This is too valuable, I can't accept it."

Ruan Yusang chuckled to herself, "Dad, just accept it. I saw your eyes light up when you saw that car."

Chang Tinglan chimed in, "Old Ruan, Xiao Chen's offer is so kind, don't refuse. Besides..." she lowered her voice, "Haven't you been saying you want to get a new car all the time?"

“Well… alright then.” Ruan Mingfeng said somewhat reluctantly.

Twenty minutes later, the saleswoman came over with an elegant gift box: "Uncle, here are the car keys and your purchase documents. Everything is ready. The car is in the VIP delivery area downstairs. You can pick it up anytime after you finish your meal."

Ruan Mingfeng took the gift box, opened it, and inside lay a key inlaid with the Bentley logo, gleaming under the light. His fingers gently traced the surface of the key, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

"Dad, do you want to go test drive the new car now?" Ruan Yusang winked mischievously.

Ruan Mingfeng finally couldn't hold back any longer, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up: "Then...then let's give it a try?"

The group arrived at the showroom, where a glossy black Bentley Flying Spur stood quietly, its streamlined body gleaming elegantly under the lights.

Ruan Mingfeng walked around the car, liking it more and more each time he looked at it.

"Uncle, should we drive straight back to Qianchao Bay?" Chen Yan suggested.

Ruan Mingfeng hesitated, "I...I've never driven such an expensive car before."

"It's alright," the saleswoman said with a smile, "Mr. Chen has already purchased full insurance for you, so you can drive with peace of mind."

Finally, with everyone's encouragement, Ruan Mingfeng got into the driver's seat.

The feel of the leather seats, the exquisite interior, the gleaming Bentley logo on the steering wheel... everything made him feel like he was in a dream.

A Bentley Flying Spur and a Rolls-Royce Phantom drove out of the dealership one after the other.

Ruan Mingfeng and Chang Tinglan sat in the Bentley Flying Spur, while Chen Yan and Ruan Yusang followed behind in a Rolls-Royce Phantom.

"This kid knows how to handle things."

Inside the Bentley, Ruan Mingfeng muttered to himself.

He lightly pressed the accelerator, feeling the surging power of this luxury car, and couldn't help but smile.

Chang Tinglan, sitting in the passenger seat, looked out the window at the receding street scene and let out a long sigh:

"Old Ruan, I've thought about it seriously. Maybe we shouldn't get involved in the affairs of the young people..."
