Chapter 147: Buying a Car (1/2)
Yao Na saw that they were so enthusiastic about it, but she still did not wish to follow them. On the contrary, Cheng Yu was fine with it. He also wished to see what tactics they would use to mess around with Yao Na and him. Thus, he nodded his head towards Yao Na.

When Ai Ling saw that they agreed, she quickly went up and pulled Yao Na’s hands as if she was afraid that Yao Na would run away. If others were to see Ai Ling acting so intimately, they would really think that the two of them were best pals who had not seen each other for many years. Even though Yao Na was not used to it, she still felt that it was inappropriate to reject her. So, she let Ai Ling pull her along.
While walking, Ai Ling would keep on talking to Yao Na about her luxurious lifestyle in recent years. It seemed like her world only revolved around luxury.
“That’s right. Yao Na, what kind of price tag are you looking at? Aish! Nowadays, the procedures for buying a car is troublesome. If the price is too low, you will not have the face to drive it. But if the price is too high, especially as Shen Hang and I are people with status in the company, people would think that we are embezzling money,” When Ai Ling saw that Yao Na did not speak a single sentence, she changed the topic back to buying a car.
“We are just only looking around,” Yao Na said nonchalantly.
“Yao Na, I actually feel that you should just buy a cheap car since you are a teacher. If you drive a luxurious car, you will be criticized by others behind your back. You see, there are a lot of female teachers that drive Mini Coopers or QQs. Besides, teachers don’t earn a lot. I think it’s very suitable for you to buy this kind of car. What do you think?” The way Ai Ling spoke seemed to be weighing the options out for Yao Na, but behind her words, she was actually mocking Yao Na for not having money.
As for Cheng Yu who was standing at a side, Ai Ling had long ignored him. Even though he was quite handsome and young, the clothes he wore were just ordinary. Just by a look, you could tell that he was not rich. Therefore, she believed that it was Yao Na buying her own car.
“Shen Hang, what do you think of this car? Regardless of whether it was a male or female, I find it suitable for both genders,” Suddenly, Ai Ling saw a red BMW 3 series sedan in front. Immediately, she was somewhat pleasantly surprised. The BMW 3 series was actually a very beautiful car. If a woman drove it, she would look elegant and classy in it while if it was a man, it would be imposing.
“Miss, how much is this car?” Shen Hang looked at the BMW and his heart bulged. When he saw Ai Ling was so happy and there were also other women around, he did not wish to lose his dignity.
“Mister, this BMW 3 series is the latest model that is equipped with 8th gear tech. The whole interior was done with fashion in mind. Our current selling price is $380,000.”
$380,000? Shen Hang was stunned. He was a CEO, but his company was just a small firm. His annual salary was only about $500,000. In addition, the place they lived was a top grade district. Adding on to their daily expenses, in a year, it would already cost up to $200,000. To buy a $380,000 car was a little too luxurious at the moment for Shen Hang as he was unable to support it.
“En. It is not bad and the price is also very reasonable. However, there are still so many cars around here, so let’s continue looking at the other cars first,” Shen Hang smiled. He felt that the words he just said were very reasonable and also did not cause him to lose any face.
However, Ai Ling was somewhat disappointed. She wanted to show off in front of Yao Na, but she did not expect Shen Hang to not cooperate with her. However, she also had no other choice. After all, she was not the one forking out the money. After walking for a few steps, Ai Ling pointed at a red Audi A6 and said, ”Shen Hang, what do you think about this then? I feel that it’s quite suitable for us.”
“Miss, this Audi A6 is a 2014 model and it focuses on coziness. It is very suitable for people like you, successful public figures. It will not cause others to feel too bombastic, but instead makes you look very humble,” Shen Hang did not even say anything as the attendant spoke out.
To the attendants, they all possessed nimble minds. She was able to tell that Ai Ling was purposely showing off in front of Cheng Yu and Yao Na, but apparently Shen Hang felt that it was somewhat a too expensive.
At this moment, she knew that it is about time she made a move. She vaguely reminded Ai Ling duo of their status as it would enlarge their egos in front of others.
Furthermore, with Cheng Yu and Yao Na around, they would definitely not back down. If they were willing to buy it, it would be for the best. Even if they were not willing, it would also be fine to the attendant.
“How much does this car cost?” Even Shen Hang was somewhat affected. He felt that Audi should be a lot cheaper than BMW. He should be able to afford it.
“This car’s price is almost the same as the BMW. $375,000. Of course, if you are willing to buy it, I can give you the best price, $370,000,” The attendant’s smile was very sweet. However, Shen Hang’s mouth twitched when he heard the price.
“Your mother! Like that, I might as well buy the BMW?!” However, Shen Hang did not say it out loud. Consequently, he walked around the Audi. From time to time, he would nod his head to make it appear as if he was very happy with it.
“I am very satisfied with the car,” After walking a few rounds around the Audi, Shen Hang praised.
“Then, let’s buy this,” When Ai Ling saw that Shen Hang was also very satisfied with the car, she was happy.
“Aren’t you afraid that our boss would make life difficult for us? It’s not like you aren’t familiar with our boss’s attitude,” Shen Hong looked at Ai Ling and scolded.
“What does buying this have to do with our boss?” Ai Ling said confusedly.
“Think about it. Our boss always bear grudges towards people better than him. His car is only an Audi A5. If we buy this Audi A6, aren’t we giving him a slap in his face?” Shen Hang said the script he had thought of while viewing the Audi just now. He felt that his excuse was just pure fantastic!
“This…” Ai Ling was at a loss of what to do. Their boss was truly someone who was very narrow-minded.
