"Valued guests, this is our recent bestseller, the Mushang. It uses Germany's most advanced..."

Ma Yue led Chen Erbao and Lin Zhiqing to the center of the main lobby, sat them down at a table, and served them tea before starting her presentation.

During her presentation, she would occasionally rub her leg against Chen Erbao's thigh and even deliberately bend over, revealing her deep cleavage.

Chen Erbao remained completely unfazed, utterly unmoved.

Setting aside the brazen aura Ma Yue gave off, he wasn't even impressed by her looks!

She was worlds apart from Qin Lan, to say nothing of Lin Zhiqing, who was right beside him.

After listening to her drone on for some time, Chen Erbao finally spoke up.

"What's the price range for this car?"

"Anywhere from five to six million..."

The moment Chen Erbao heard the price, he mostly lost interest.

It wasn't that he couldn't afford it, but that it was unnecessary.

He had a little over ten million in total, and he needed to set some aside to ensure his project proceeded smoothly. There was really no need to spend half his savings on a luxury car.

Once his business took off in the future, buying a dozen of them wouldn't be an issue, but it just wasn't the right time.

"Do you have anything cheaper? I'm not looking to buy something this expensive."

Chen Erbao wasn't the type to play the fool and overspend just for show, so he asked directly.

Ma Yue was visibly taken aback by Chen Erbao's words, but she recovered quickly.

"Yes, we do. Over this way..."

Her expression remained neutral, but inwardly, she had already started scoffing.

She'd seen all kinds of people and knew perfectly well that many just came to the Bentley dealership for a little ego boost. They would start by asking for something cheaper, then complain that the styling wasn't right, making one excuse after another until the whole thing fizzled out.

She'd seen plenty of people like that.

In her mind, Chen Erbao was now firmly in that category.

After a few listless words of introduction, Ma Yue grew impatient seeing Chen Erbao's hesitation.

"Why don't you two look around for a bit? I need to go take care of something."

With that excuse, she walked away.

Chen Erbao didn't mind. He looked at Lin Zhiqing and asked,

"Which car do you think would be good for me?"

Lin Zhiqing thought about it for a moment.

"If it's for business and networking, a Continental in the three-million-plus range is enough. There's no need to buy anything more expensive; it's just for show, really. But it's your call. I'll support whatever you decide to buy."

A warm feeling spread through Chen Erbao's heart.

Of all the women in his life, Lin Rui and Lin Zhiqing were the two he liked most.

One was the girl next door, the other his pure, idealized love—both were his absolute favorites!

"The Continental it is, then!"

Chen Erbao made up his mind. Just as he was about to call Ma Yue over, several lavishly dressed young men walked in through the entrance.

Upon entering, they scanned the room, and their eyes lit up when they landed on Lin Zhiqing.

"Miss, I'm not sure which car has caught your eye, but I'd be happy to buy it for you!"

One of them straightened his clothes, puffed out his chest, and strode over. Completely ignoring Chen Erbao, he addressed Lin Zhiqing with a grin.

"…"

Chen Erbao and Lin Zhiqing exchanged a look, both clearly speechless.

'Why does this kind of thing happen every time we go out!'

"Seems you're pretty popular... flies follow you wherever you go!"

Chen Erbao murmured.

Lin Zhiqing pouted.

"Hmph, it's good that *someone* knows. I happen to be very popular, you know!"

"…"

Seeing the two of them ignoring him and whispering to each other, the young man frowned and turned to Chen Erbao.

"Excuse me, sir. Didn't you see I was speaking with this lady?"

"What the fuck does your talking have to do with me? Can't you fucking see this is my girl?"

Chen Erbao had no patience for people like this. He slung an arm around Lin Zhiqing's shoulder and cursed rudely.

The young man's expression soured at Chen Erbao's crude words.

"Watch your tone! You're utterly vulgar!"

"Heh, she's my woman. Are you hitting on her right in front of me, pretending I don't exist?"

With that, Chen Erbao leaned in and planted a kiss right on Lin Zhiqing's luscious red lips.

The young man's face went pale with rage.

When Lin Zhiqing heard Chen Erbao call her "his girl," she shot him an annoyed look. But she didn't undermine him, instead snuggling obediently into his embrace, playing the part of a demure, dependent woman.

The sight made the young man clench his jaw in frustration.

'A top-class beauty with such elegance, and she ends up with a worthless punk!'

'He considered himself a highly educated intellectual, having studied abroad. What kind of woman wasn't an easy conquest for him?'

"Miss, I haven't properly introduced myself. I am a specially-appointed lecturer at the European University..."

He rattled off a string of fancy-sounding titles that neither Chen Erbao nor Lin Zhiqing understood. All they got from it was that the guy was a pretentious show-off.

"Are you fucking deaf or something? I'm her boyfriend. Got it?"

Chen Erbao stepped in front of Lin Zhiqing, enunciating each word for the young man.

Cut off mid-sentence by Chen Erbao, the young man's brow furrowed in anger.

Their argument attracted the attention of the other people in the dealership, and all eyes turned toward them.

"Young Master Wang, what's happening?"

One of his companions walked over and asked with a smile.

The young man, Wang, waved his hand dismissively.

"It's nothing. I was just chatting with this lady, and it seems this gentleman is a bit displeased..."

The companion understood immediately. He sidled up to Chen Erbao and said earnestly,

"Buddy, I'm Ma Qiming from Dingsheng Group. This here is Young Master Wang, a very important person. So, do me a favor..."

His meaning was clear: he wanted Chen Erbao to leave and not spoil their fun.

'Dingsheng Group?'

Chen Erbao froze for a second when he heard the name.

He was certainly no stranger to that name.

Dingsheng Group was a nationally renowned mega-corporation, on par with Medicine King Hall. The only difference was their industries—one dealt in medicinal herbs, the other in real estate.

But... Chen Erbao wouldn't have been impressed even if he were the head of state!

"What are you trying to say?"

Chen Erbao asked coldly.

Ma Qiming was taken aback.

"I mean that Young Master Wang is my guest. You shouldn't spoil his good mood..."

"Did you forget to take your meds before you left the house, you fucking psycho? If you're sick, then fuck off and get treated!"

Chen Erbao's voice was so loud that everyone watching heard him loud and clear.

"???"

Ma Qiming was completely dumbfounded. In his entire life, this was the first time anyone had ever cursed him to his face.

And right after he had announced who he was, no less!

"Do you even know what you're saying?"

Ma Qiming stared hard at Chen Erbao, his voice dropping to an icy tone.

'He couldn't wrap his head around it. Was there anyone in all of China who hadn't heard of him or Dingsheng Group?'

"I made myself perfectly clear. If you didn't take your meds, then fuck off and take them. Stop throwing a goddamn fit here!"

Chen Erbao had no intention of indulging him.

'With the Joyful Technique in his possession, worldly wealth and power were nothing. He was destined for far greater things. In his eyes, all these ordinary people were the same!'

'What did it matter if he was the young master of some multinational corporation? In his eyes, there was no difference between this guy and an old man selling sweet potatoes on the side of the road!'
