"Hey, Huang Qige!"
"Qin Chuan, I was just about to call you. What happened? You came to my shop and left!"
In the cubicle of a public restroom, Qin Chuan seized the opportunity to relieve himself and quickly dialed Huang Qi's number.
As soon as the call connected, Huang Qi asked rapidly.
"Don't even mention it. My stomach hurt the whole way. I almost pooped my pants just now, so I rushed to this public restroom first," Qin Chuan explained.
Huang Qi on the other end of the line seemed taken aback by the answer. He paused for two or three seconds before saying speechlessly, "You didn't have to go to a public restroom. Our shop has a restroom!"
"Oh, that's too kind. It's better to handle such matters in a public restroom."
"Right, Huang Qige, I saw Brother Conglong's sports car outside too. Is he at your shop now?" Qin Chuan asked.
"No, Brother Conglong's sports car had a minor issue, so I'm fixing it here," Huang Qi replied.
Qin Chuan, who had been tense in the public restroom, immediately relaxed upon hearing this. He then quickly pressed on, "Is Brother Conglong coming over today? I heard he ordered a Land Rover!"
"That's right, Qin Chuan. Conglong was planning to pick up the car today, but he called this morning saying his father wanted him to go to the mine. So, the Land Rover will be kept here for now until he returns."
Qin Chuan couldn't hide the smile that crept onto his lips, though his tone was full of regret. "Oh, that's really bad timing. I was hoping the three of us could go for drinks tonight!"
"Isn't that the truth? I even told him you ordered another Audi from me, and he can't make it!" Huang Qi's tone was also full of regret.
"Damn, I didn't realize you were such a gossip!" Qin Chuan muttered to himself, then quickly said, "Huang Qige, wait for me for a few minutes. I'll be at your shop soon."
"No problem, I'll be waiting for you!"
After they hung up, Qin Chuan deliberately dawdled for another two or three minutes before pretending to be weak and emerging from the restroom.
"Xiao Chuan, are you feeling alright?" Li Ya, who had been waiting outside, asked with concern upon seeing him.
"It's nothing serious. I just needed to get rid of some waste!"
"Let's go, I'll take you to my friend's shop."
Qin Chuan got into the car, and this time they successfully stopped at the entrance of the 4S shop.
When the two entered, Huang Qi was already waiting. Seeing Qin Chuan and Li Ya walk in, a warm smile appeared on his face.
At the same time, a fleeting look of astonishment flashed across his eyes, as Li Ya was incredibly beautiful, even captivating someone like Huang Qi, who was accustomed to seeing beautiful women.
"Qin Chuan, who is this..."
"Oh, her name is Li Ya. She's the one who ordered the Audi this time!" Qin Chuan introduced tactfully.
"Oh, so that's how it is. Ms. Li, hello! Hello! My name is Huang Qi, and I'm the owner of this 4S shop." Huang Qi enthusiastically extended his hand to Li Ya.
"Hello, Boss Huang. I'm sorry to have troubled you this time!" Li Ya offered her jade-like hand for a brief handshake with Huang Qi, her demeanor graceful and composed.
"Please, come sit down here. I've already prepared some tea." Huang Qi gestured for them to sit.
After they settled in the lounge area and exchanged pleasantries for about the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Qin Chuan asked, "Where is the Audi now?"
"It's in the back lot. Do you want to see it now?"
"Of course! Our goal in coming to the provincial capital this time is that Audi!" Qin Chuan stood up, his expression filled with eagerness.
Li Ya's eyes also sparkled with anticipation.
Led by Huang Qi, they arrived at the back lot of the 4S shop, where many luxury cars were parked, including Mercedes-Benz, as well as several other brands. For instance, an Audi, a Ferrari, and a mighty, imposing Land Rover...
"This is the Audi A6 you ordered," Huang Qi said, walking up to a car with a dark exterior and the Four Rings logo. "Its total length is 4796 millimeters, width is 1810 millimeters, and wheelbase is 2760 millimeters! It uses a 2.8-liter V6 engine with five valves per cylinder, boasting 190 horsepower, which is very wild, with a top speed of up to 229 kilometers per hour. With full-time four-wheel drive, it can handle mountain roads on rainy days or snowy terrain after snowfall as if it were flat ground, easily accomplishing any task!"
Huang Qi, as a professional car dealer, rattled off the technical specifications effortlessly, leaving Qin Chuan and Li Ya astonished. As he spoke, Huang Qi opened the car door, inviting Qin Chuan and Li Ya to inspect the luxurious interior.
Li Ya reached out and touched the leather seats, the soft texture making her like it more and more.
"Sister, do you like it?" Qin Chuan whispered.
Li Ya nodded and said without hesitation, "I do! I really like it!"
"Huang Qige, no need to introduce further. Is the fuel tank full? We want to test drive it first!" Qin Chuan said to Huang Qi.
"Not yet, but I have gasoline here. I can add some now." Huang Qi called over a subordinate to refuel the Audi.
While this was happening, Qin Chuan walked over to the Land Rover and examined it closely. It was indeed the king of SUVs. The Land Rover's craftsmanship at this time was very distinctive, with its clear lines and a natural wildness that would appeal to any off-road enthusiast, regardless of gender.
"This is the car that Conglong ordered. You know, ever since you mentioned wanting to buy a Land Rover, Conglong got interested," Huang Qi said with a smile as he walked over from behind. "He researched a lot about Land Rovers and then pestered me relentlessly to get him one. I had no choice but to fulfill his wish."
"How much is this Land Rover?" Qin Chuan asked.
"Including customs duties and various costs, around 120,000!" Huang Qi replied.
"Not bad, that price is acceptable." Qin Chuan nodded. "What about the Audi A6?"
This time, Huang Qi didn't answer directly. Instead, he first glanced at Li Ya's graceful figure standing by the Audi, then with the smile of an experienced man, he put his arm around Qin Chuan's shoulder. "Brother, before I answer that, tell me, what's your relationship with that girl?"
"Such a stunning girl is rare. Is she your girlfriend?"
Qin Chuan slanted his eyes. "What if she is my girlfriend, and what if she isn't?"
"If she's your girlfriend, I'll make less profit. If she's not your girlfriend, but you're somewhat close, then I'll earn an extra ten to twenty thousand. It's that simple!" Huang Qi said frankly, his expression calm.
"Then make less profit," Qin Chuan replied.
Huang Qi immediately showed a knowing expression, envious. "Alright, brother, you have good fortune! A girlfriend as stunning as her, among the women I know, only one can slightly surpass her. Others can't compare."
This time, Qin Chuan's curiosity was piqued. He couldn't help but ask, "Which girl is so amazing? Even more beautiful than my girlfriend?"
"Speaking of this girl, she's actually not far from us!" As Huang Qi said this, his expression suddenly became distant, as if lost in some infatuation. After a long pause, he said slowly, "She's Conglong's sister. A girl who was very unique even as a child."
"Have you seen her?"
Huang Qi's thoughts drifted back from the ethereal state, and he then noticed Qin Chuan looking at him with a very strange gaze, subtly containing a deeply hidden hostility.
