Chapter 15 - A Friendship Of Sworn Brotherhood (1/2)
After Lu Jia’er had accompanied Jin Xiangdong until he left, she went to a repair shop to meet with Su Han.
“It’s all taken care of in there. But the bumper is bent. The mechanic does not recommend a claim with the insurance company. You’d better repair the car and pay on your own. Just repair the paint damage!” Su Han stood next to the car and told Lu Jia’er her thoughts on the matter.
“How much is the repair cost if it is paid on my own?” Lu Jia’er asked.
“Two hundred Yuan and cost of paint repair!” said the mechanic.
Lu Jia’er looked at the front of the car. “Some photos of the car should suffice to get a settlement from the insurance company!”
The mechanic continued, “If you file a claim with the insurance company, you’re actually paying with your own money. The difference is you don’t have to pay at once!”
Lu Jia’er eyed the mechanic. Although he was trying to finalize a deal, what he had said was all true.
Su Han followed the mechanic. “I agree with him. What affects the actual premium is the rate. The rate for your car in the second year should be 0.57. But since you filed a claim for a scratch last year, the rate should be around 0.665 now. It’s better to spend two hundred Yuan and get the car repaired by the mechanic in no time than get a settlement from the insurance company!”
Su Han clearly knew of the premium rate of Lu Jia’er’s car, which made the mechanic believe that she was an expert. But Lu Jia’er was not surprised at all because Su Han had a super memory. Naming the digits of Pi were but a piece of cake for her, let alone memorizing such a small amount of data.
Lu Jia’er did what Su Han told her to do. Afterward the two left the repair shop and hailed a taxi for dinner.
When Su Han learned that Lu Jia’er had hit Jin Shengping’s car, she immediately dropped her chopsticks and held Lu Jia’er hand. “Did you use this hand to shake hands with Jin Shengping?”
Lu Jia’er retrieved her hand and gave her the cold shoulder. “Is it worthwhile to be a frenzied fan?”
