Chapter 1452: Chapter 1453: Sometimes I Can’t Understand What She’s Thinking

She said expressionlessly, “Rolls-Royce.”

Rong Yan, “…”

“And the Phantom model. With the premium configuration, it costs roughly eight figures.”

Rong Yan felt the need to defend herself, “Our company has just been established and is still in the startup phase. There’s no need to compare with these listed enterprises, right? What matters is inner substance and competence—external things are just decoration, mere illusions…”

Exactly, she couldn’t afford it anyway, so it’s all just illusions.

Whether it’s one million or ten million, it made no difference to her!

Estelle said expressionlessly once again, “Wang Ying—the Mr. Wang we’re negotiating with. She doesn’t hold any equity of real authority in Lemon; she only has less than one percent of dividend-only shares. She drives a three-million-yuan Maserati. A senior executive in a company drives a Maserati of that tier, and as the boss of Bright, are you planning to show up in your Volkswagen Jetta?”

“…”

Come on, are corporate executives of public companies all this wealthy now?

“Usually, after collaboration discussions, both parties will go for some business socializing. It might be a meal, or it might be golf. By then, everyone will be driving their cars. Think carefully—if you feel it’s painful to spend 1,200 yuan, and you want to use ‘inner substance’ and ‘competence’ to make your point by driving your little Jetta, I don’t have any objections. Right now, if you return the car, you might even get seven or eight hundred back.”

Rong Yan grabbed the hand holding her phone and cried miserably, “I was wrong, don’t. Substance and competence still need a refined exterior to match. After all, this is a world that judges by appearances!”

A Rolls-Royce Phantom sandwiched between a Maserati and a beat-up Volkswagen Jetta—she couldn’t even imagine the visual of that.

Just thinking about it was already a shock.

Fine, fine, pretending is still a necessary skill!

Estelle was only joking with her—how could she really return the car? She let go of her hand and sighed, “Actually, saving money is easy. Mr. Li has so many cars in his garage; you could just pick any one to drive out, and we wouldn’t even have to go through the hassle of renting one.”

Rong Yan loosened her grip, leaned lazily against the car window, and stubbornly said, “Renting a car is still better. It’s more convenient.”

“Driving Mr. Li’s car isn’t convenient?” Estelle truly couldn’t understand her thought process. “Sometimes I really don’t get what’s in your head. Why do you have to be so calculative with Mr. Li? At the very least, you two are boyfriend and girlfriend—even without Duidui, you’re still the closest people to each other. It’s just a car; I haven’t even seen you drive any cars before—you’re basically always taking rides or calling for taxis or Didi.”

“I don’t believe Mr. Li wouldn’t let you use his cars.”

She, as someone with experience, could tell whether a man truly cherished a woman or was just casually playing with her. Regarding Mr. Li and Rong Yan, to be honest, even as a married woman, she found herself envious!

He almost spoiled Rong Yan to the heavens!

Lately, wasn’t there a lot of gossip going around? People were saying that Mr. Li from the Li Group had been disappearing more than usual—rarely seen attending social events or banquets.

Why was he going home so early every day? Wasn’t it just to spend more time with his particular someone?

Where could you even find a husband-plus-boyfriend combo this devoted? She couldn’t understand why Rong Yan was still drawing a demarcation line with Li Shengxiao, guarding her own little piece of territory, unwilling to step over even half a step.

Feeling nagged to the point of helplessness, Rong Yan sat upright and said, “He keeps the car keys at home and tells me to call Gu Ming for pick-ups whenever I need to go out.”

“Then why don’t you?”

“Because I don’t want to,” Rong Yan said earnestly, her pale face calm as she looked at her. “Because I want to experience a relationship of equals. I want to walk toward him on my own. If I rely on him to move forward, is it really moving forward?”
