Super Rich: Enjoying the Happiness of the Wealthy After Divorce
Chapter 19 I promised to give you a car, so let's buy one for 5 yuan. Swipe your card!
Zhou Cheng was in a good mood after Lin Qingxue hung up the phone.
He didn't take his ex-wife Shen Lu's underhanded tricks to heart at all.
What kind of waves can a woman who can't even manage her own life make?
What he's looking forward to now is the elite team that will be arriving tomorrow.
The thought that he would no longer have to worry about trivial matters and that he could simply ask someone to arrange everything perfectly made Zhou Cheng feel that the money was well spent.
Just then, the clock struck midnight.
In my mind, the cold, mechanical voice rang out precisely on time.
[Midnight has arrived, system refresh.]
[Daily random task has been issued, please check it.]
Zhou Cheng casually opened the task panel.
[Task Name: The Matchmaker's Troubles]
[Mission Description: Inside the "Love at First Sight" café in Jiangcheng, Mr. Wang is going on an awkward blind date. He can't stand the other person's incessant chatter and desperately hopes someone will call and give him a reason to leave.]
[Task Requirements: Within ten minutes, help Mr. Wang escape his blind date predicament using any method.]
[Mission Reward: Host's physical attribute points +1.]
Zhou Cheng looked at the task and almost laughed.
What is all this about? The system is also acting as a matchmaker and a villain?
However, even though 1 point in physical attribute is not much, every little bit helps.
He glanced at the real-time monitoring footage attached to the mission. In the coffee shop, a bespectacled man with a receding hairline was facing a talkative girl, forcing a smile that looked more like a grimace.
Zhou Cheng thought for a moment and decided not to choose the simplest method of making a phone call.
He found the coffee shop's phone number online and dialed it.
"Hello, I found Love Cafe around the corner."
"Hello, could you please find me a lady? She should be sitting by the window, on a blind date with a man wearing glasses." Zhou Cheng's voice was calm.
"Yes, sir. May I ask what business you have with her? I'll pass on your message."
"Just give her the phone number and tell her that the man across from her just spent fifty yuan to place an order on a local delivery service to have someone call and get him out of there."
The waiter on the other end of the phone was clearly stunned, and it took him several seconds to react: "Ah? Okay...okay, sir, I'll pass it on right away."
Zhou Cun hung up the phone, and he could almost imagine the chaotic scene that would unfold in the coffee shop.
He didn't even bother to check the task completion notification and simply closed the system panel.
This is such a trivial matter that it's not worth him spending another second of his attention.
He glanced at the time; it was just past midnight.
That girl Su Qingyao is probably glued to her phone right now, daydreaming about that "special gift" for tomorrow.
Thinking of her adorable, anxious look, Zhou Cheng felt even better.
The next morning, Zhou Cheng woke up feeling refreshed.
Instead of contacting Su Qingyao immediately, he first swam two laps in the rooftop infinity pool before leisurely enjoying the breakfast delivered by the five-star hotel chef.
He finally got through to Su Qingyao at 9:30 a.m.
The call was answered almost instantly, and the girl's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement and nervousness.
"Zhou... Zhou Cheng."
"Awake? Are you all ready?"
"Yes! I've already packed up!"
"Okay, wait for me downstairs, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Cheng changed into casual clothes and went straight to the underground parking garage.
Besides the Cullinan, a brand-new sports car was parked quietly next to it—the Aston Martin One 77 that the system had rewarded them with.
However, he doesn't plan to drive this car today; it's too high-profile.
He still chose the more composed Cullinan.
The car drove smoothly out of Yunding Huafu, and Zhou Cheng casually sent a message to Lin Qingxue.
[Manager Lin, could you please contact the best car dealership in Jiangcheng, specializing in top-of-the-line supercars and SUVs? I need to go there to see the cars now.]
Lin Qingxue replied to her messages almost instantly.
【Okay, Mr. Zhou! I'll contact the general manager of 'Zunronghui' for you right away. He's an old friend of mine, and I'll have him personally receive you! I'll send you the address right away!】
Zhou Cheng received the address and immediately set up the navigation.
The car soon arrived at the dormitory building of the music academy.
Today, Su Qingyao was wearing the white Chanel suit that Zhou Cheng had bought for her yesterday. Her hair was also carefully styled, and she looked like a princess who had stepped out of a painting, pure and noble.
As soon as she got into the car, she brought with her a faint, sweet fragrance.
"Have you been waiting long?" Zhou Cheng asked with a smile.
"No, no, I just came down too." Su Qingyao shook her head, but her eyes couldn't help but secretly peek at Zhou Cheng.
Today, he was dressed in a simple T-shirt and casual pants, but his tall and straight figure and outstanding temperament were still undeniable.
"Where...where are we going?" she asked softly, unable to contain her curiosity.
"You'll see when we get there." Zhou Cheng smiled mysteriously, stepped on the gas, and the Cullinan smoothly merged into the traffic.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of an extremely luxurious car showroom.
Inside the massive glass curtain wall, rows of extravagantly designed supercars are parked, while the three gilded characters "Zunronghui" at the entrance highlight its extraordinary status.
"This...this is..." Su Qingyao covered her mouth.
"This is where I'll give you the gift." Zhou Cheng unbuckled her seatbelt, took her hand, and led her into the exhibition hall.
A middle-aged man in a suit, who looked to be in his forties, was already waiting respectfully at the door with two rows of salespeople.
"Hello Mr. Zhou! I am Li Hong, the general manager of Zunronghui. Welcome to our establishment!" Li Hong quickly stepped forward and warmly extended his hands.
"Mr. Li, you're too kind." Zhou Cheng shook hands with him.
Li Hong's gaze swept over Su Qingyao imperceptibly, and he secretly admired her.
A girl who could be personally brought by someone like Mr. Zhou must be an absolute beauty.
"Mr. Zhou, Manager Lin has already told me about your needs. You want to choose a car for this young lady, right? I wonder what your preferences are regarding brands and models?" Li Hong asked respectfully.
Upon hearing that it was for a car, Su Qingyao's face flushed red, and she nervously waved her hands, saying, "No, no, no, I... I don't want to..."
Zhou Cheng squeezed her hand to reassure her, then said to Li Hong, "She hasn't gotten her driver's license yet, so we need to choose a car that's easy to drive, safe, and has good visibility. Also, it needs to look nice and be suitable for a girl. Price doesn't matter."
Price doesn't matter.
These five words made Li Hong's heart skip a beat.
He immediately realized that a true god of wealth had come today.
"I understand!" Li Hong's eyes lit up, and he personally led the way. "Mr. Zhou, based on your requirements, my personal top recommendation is a Brabus G800 that just arrived at our dealership. It's a limited edition, and there's only one in Jiangcheng!"
He led Zhou Cheng and Su Qingyao to the center of the exhibition hall.
A black off-road vehicle with a rugged and imposing design lay there quietly.
The boxy body, the exaggerated wide body kit, the carbon fiber spoiler on the roof, and the iconic "little backpack" at the rear all exude a strong sense of masculinity.
"This car is based on the latest Mercedes-Benz G63 and is handcrafted at the Brabus factory in Germany. It's equipped with a 4.0T V8 twin-turbocharged engine, producing a maximum of 800 horsepower, and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds—performance comparable to a supercar!"
"As for the interior, it also uses Brabus's top-of-the-line 'Starlight Headliner' and Hermès orange leather, making it extremely luxurious."
Most importantly, the original owner of this car had to part with it because he ran out of money.
The car is brand new, just arrived and hasn't even been registered yet. It's practically brand new. I'm paying in full now, the price is a fantastic deal!
Li Hong spoke animatedly, spittle flying everywhere, while Su Qingyao was completely dumbfounded.
Although she doesn't know much about cars, just by looking at the car's appearance and listening to the introduction, she knew that it was absolutely priced exorbitantly.
She tugged at Zhou Cheng's sleeve and whispered, "This... isn't it a bit too much? I can't drive this..."
It does seem a bit incongruous for a girl to drive such a beast that looks like an armored vehicle.
Zhou Cheng also felt that the car was too rugged and not suitable for Su Qingyao.
He interrupted Li Hong, who was still talking non-stop.
"Are there any other options? Like a sports car or a sedan?"
Li Hong was taken aback for a moment, then quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, yes! Of course! This way, please!"
He then took the two men to see Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Bentleys.
Each one is a luxury car worth millions.
Su Qingyao was dazzled by what she saw and became increasingly anxious.
She felt that everything here was unfamiliar and unsettling.
Zhou Cheng noticed her mood and stopped walking.
He didn't look at the cars again, but turned to Li Hong and asked, "Do you have any cars here that... don't look very expensive, but are actually very safe, comfortable, and unique?"
Li Hong was stumped by Zhou Cheng's question.
It looks inexpensive, but it's actually good and unique?
What kind of requirement is this?
He thought for a long time, then suddenly slapped his thigh.
"Yes! Mr. Zhou, please come with me!"
He led Zhou Cheng and Su Qingyao to an inconspicuous corner of the exhibition hall.
There, parked, was a cute little car with a rounded shape and a Tiffany blue color.
"This is... a Beetle?" Zhou Cheng recognized the car.
"Yes! But it's not an ordinary beetle!" A mysterious smile appeared on Li Hong's face.
"This is the last commemorative edition Volkswagen released before ceasing production, called the 'Collector's Edition.' Moreover, our premium dealership has invested heavily in a complete 'modification' of this car!"
As Li Hong opened the car door, an air of luxury wafted out.
"Mr. Zhou, as you can see, we've completely removed the interior of this car and replaced it with top-grade Hermès calfskin, the same material used in Rolls-Royces, all hand-stitched. The center console is inlaid with Swarovski crystals, the audio system has been replaced with Danish Dynaudio, and all the windows have been replaced with bulletproof ones!"
"Most importantly, we replaced its engine! We put in a 2.5T five-cylinder engine from an Audi RS3! Now this little thing has 400 horsepower and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just over 4 seconds! It's a supercar disguised as a Beetle!"
"We call it 'Violent Cute Bunny'!"
Su Qingyao's eyes lit up when she saw this cute little car with such a wild heart.
She instantly fell in love with this "violent and adorable bunny".
Zhou Cheng smiled too.
This car is indeed very special.
Understated exterior, luxurious interior, and ferocious performance.
It perfectly met his requirements.
He stopped looking at other things and went straight to asking Li Hong.
"How much is this car?"
Li Hong held up five fingers.
"The total cost of the modifications, including the car price, is five million."
Five million to buy a Volkswagen Beetle?
If word got out, people would probably think I'm crazy.
But Zhou Cheng didn't care.
He only cared whether Su Qingyao liked him or not.
He turned to look at Su Qingyao, whose eyes shone with longing.
He got it.
He didn't say another word and spoke directly to Li Hong.
"That's it. Swipe your card."
