After Chen Qiu's careful selection, a set of three gold items worth 50,000 yuan was eventually replaced with a 50-gram pure gold bracelet. The design was simple and understated, just right for her mother's age.

After leaving Chow Tai Fook, Chen Qiu went to a mobile phone store to pick out the latest flagship phone for her father.

Yes, the three-fold design that middle-aged men love most—it looks good no matter how you fold it!

When it comes to being filial to your parents, you have to treat them all equally!

After leaving the mall with great satisfaction, Chen Qiu headed straight for the Xiaomi Auto store not far away!

At the same time, Lü Shuang and Lin Shishan, who had just finished paying the bill and came out of the restaurant with dark faces, watched Chen Qiu walk across the street.

"Shuangshuang, look! It's your stingy blind date!" Lin Shishan said through gritted teeth, as if she wanted to pierce through Chen Qiu with her eyes.

This meal cost her nearly a thousand yuan! Although the money was ultimately paid by her blind date, in her mind, her blind date's money was her money sooner or later! Now that it was spent for no reason, she was heartbroken.

"Shanshan, let's go! Let's find this poor bastard and demand an explanation!" Lu Shuang was also furious.

Just as the two women were angrily preparing to go over together, they suddenly paused for a moment.

They watched as Chen Qiu walked straight into the Xiaomi Auto store in southern Jiangxi, which had just opened not long ago!

……

Inside a Xiaomi car store.

After entering, Chen Qiu gave his name and picked up his car. A store manager surnamed Wang immediately led Chen Qiu to a car covered with a red silk cloth in the center of the showroom.

"Mr. Chen, your car is ready!" the manager said, lifting the silk cloth.

A bright, flamboyant magenta SU7 suddenly appeared before our eyes.

The roof-mounted laser radar, the rear electronic spoiler... it's actually the top-of-the-line Max version!

Alright, alright, Haji Tun, you bastard, 29.9 is still more than 20, right?

Moreover, the dazzling magenta color option, which was only recently released and requires an additional fee, was also available!

"Mr. Chen, this is the first bright red car in southern Jiangxi!" the store manager proudly introduced.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qiu looked at the flashy red sports car in front of him, unable to suppress the smile on his lips!

The Xiaomi SU7 was launched in 24. More than half a year has passed. From being jokingly called the "Pinduoduo version of Porsche" at the beginning, to now having a booming sales volume where orders need to wait for half a year to be delivered, this car is almost becoming "the first dream sports car for young people"!

But to be honest, if Chen Qiu had to pay for his own car, he might not be willing to buy a Xiaomi SU7!

It's not that he has a grudge against Xiaomi. Even if we only talk about product strength, the Xiaomi SU7 is quite competitive in the 20 to 30 yuan price range!

However, behind the labels of "new energy vehicle startups" and "high-end pure electric vehicles," in addition to being fashionable and technologically advanced, there are also risks that ordinary working families can hardly bear!

Many new energy vehicle brands' high-end pure electric vehicles sell for 200,000 to 300,000 yuan when they are launched. After driving them for two or three years, you find that the new models have been updated several times. If you want to sell them as used cars at this time, the depreciation rate is extremely high. It is common to lose six figures!

Not to mention those manufacturers that went bankrupt and collapsed!

In this era of fierce competition and market grabbing in the new energy sector, those who wait and see are the true gods!

"Thank you, System! Thank you, Cilantro-Averse Bodhisattva!"

Chen Qiu, who had only intended to wait and see, sighed inwardly.

First of all, congratulations on becoming our valued Xiaomi car owner!

Sitting in the technologically advanced driver's seat, Chen Qiu learned about the car's various features and intelligent operations with a detailed introduction from the store manager.

To be honest, Chen Qiu used to occasionally rent a car to take his ex-girlfriend out for fun. Otherwise, after not driving a car for so many years, it would be a bit daunting for him to directly drive this Xiaomi car that can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in less than three seconds.

After a brief introduction, Chen Qiu slowly drove out of the Xiaomi Auto store amidst the enthusiastic farewell from the store manager and a group of sales staff.

The bright magenta SU7 instantly attracted the attention of passersby.

Due to production capacity limitations, only 14 of these cars have been delivered nationwide so far. This is quite rare even in a first-tier city like Shenzhen, let alone in a third-tier city like southern Jiangxi!

"Wow, dazzling magenta! Wasn't this color scheme just released last month? And this guy's already driving it?"

"Damn, the actual car looks so cool, isn't this tempting me to place an order right now!"

"Waaah, if I could drive a 'Su Qi' (a car brand), I'd be willing to marry Zhang Ruonan!"

Amidst envious and jealous gazes, the dazzling magenta SU7 sped away.

This naturally included Lü Shuang and Lin Shishan, who were standing at the restaurant entrance, dumbfounded!

The two women witnessed Chen Qiu get into the driver's seat and drive away with a flourish, accompanied by the store manager's obsequious farewell!

Seeing this scene, their words of cursing and swearing at Chen Qiu as a "poor bastard" and a "scoundrel" seemed to turn into invisible slaps, hitting their own faces hard and burning with pain.

"Xiaomi's car... I think it costs around 200,000?" Lu Shuang said uncertainly, her voice hoarse.

If Chen Qiu were a penniless wretch who skipped out on the bill because he couldn't afford it, then she could comfortably bask in her superiority and mock and curse him! But Chen Qiu wasn't broke, so his act of skipping out on the bill made Lü Shuang, as the woman, seem incredibly pathetic!

If this gets out, people will think: How bad must Lü Shuang's circumstances be, how utterly despicable must she be, that someone wouldn't even want to pay for a meal and just ran away!

This made the self-important Lü Shuang feel ashamed and vulnerable.

"Hmph! Going on a blind date without even paying for the meal, what kind of car do you drive? It's all low-class!"

"So what if it's a 200,000 yuan car? If you don't buy a BMW, Mercedes-Benz, or Audi and instead buy a Xiaomi, you'll be a total loser who'll never amount to anything!" Lu Shuang grumbled, as if he were the one who was overlooked by the BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi, brimming with a sense of superiority.

Lin Shishan stood to the side, her eyes flickering, but she remained silent.

She knew more about cars than Lü Shuang, and even recognized it as a top-of-the-line SU7 Max! Not 200,000, but 300,000!

Moreover, in her understanding, many young people who spend 30 yuan to buy a pure electric car are either rich second-generation heirs whose families still own BMWs, Mercedes-Benzes, and Audis, or high-paid professionals in the internet or finance industries! Either way, they are definitely high-quality men!

"I get it, it must be a test drive!" Lu Shuang suddenly seemed to have figured something out and said with certainty.

"How can someone who skips out on blind dates possibly afford a car worth two or three hundred thousand?"

"I've heard that poor, loser guys love to test drive all sorts of luxury cars! After all, besides test driving, they'll never actually drive any decent cars in their lives!"

Lin Shishan hesitated upon hearing this. The test drive vehicles were all registered and required a salesperson to accompany them. The car they just drove was on a temporary plate, and Chen Qiu had driven it away alone…

But Lin Shishan didn't have a good impression of Chen Qiu, so naturally she wouldn't explain anything for him.

"When I get back, I'll have to have a good talk with Sister Wang. She's pushing all these 'misfits' onto me..." Lü Shuang was still complaining.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this upsetting stuff. Let's go watch a movie later." Lü Shuang turned to look at Lin Shishan.

Lin Shishan waved her hand, "No, I still have to look at houses later."

"Looking at houses? Your blind date is buying a house? Which neighborhood?"

"It's not decided yet..."

"I'm so envious of you! All the blind dates you've met are so reliable!" Lü Shuang said with envy and jealousy.

A subtle hint of superiority played at the corners of Lin Shishan's lips. Compared to Lü Shuang, she considered herself to be somewhat attractive...

"Otherwise, even Chen Qiu from earlier would seem to prefer me more," Lin Shishan thought smugly to herself.

Concealing her inner thoughts, Lin Shishan quickly spotted a familiar Volkswagen Sagitar parked on the side of the road across the street.

"He's here to pick me up, bye-bye!"

Lin Shishan quickly crossed the road and got into the passenger seat of the Sagitar. The driver was none other than her blind date, Chen Yujie.

If Chen Qiu were still here, he would surely exclaim: "This southern Jiangxi is really small."

Because Chen Yujie was his cousin who was looking at wedding homes before their engagement!
