Murong Yanran's words made Yang Lei pause, then he became excited. He didn't believe a beautiful woman in a Valentino dress, wearing a Prada watch, carrying a Louis Vuitton handbag, and with a stunning appearance would joke.
"Alright, madam, would you like to pay in installments or in full?"
"Full payment, I'm in a hurry. Please process it quickly."
"Okay, please wait a moment!"
Yang Lei was shocked by Murong Yanran's full payment for the car, but not surprised. After all, there were many wealthy people.
However, the young salesman was thrilled. Although the showroom was located in a high-end mall frequented by the rich, a sum of six million yuan was still out of reach for most. Signing a deal so quickly made him overjoyed. This was a commission of over a hundred thousand yuan. Although he would only receive a small portion, it was enough to make him feel great. It was truly a case of "months without a deal, then a single deal sustains for months."
At this moment, Li Haochen came out after using the restroom and couldn't find Murong Yanran. He immediately called her. "Why aren't you here? Where are you?"
"I was thirsty and went to buy a drink. You go upstairs and find a restaurant. It's almost time for lunch, and it might get crowded soon."
"Okay, I'll call you later."
After hanging up the phone, Murong Yanran looked at the car purchase contract Yang Lei handed her. Seeing no issues, she signed Li Haochen's name.
Since Li Haochen's ID was with her, there were no problems with getting the license and other paperwork done. Otherwise, she wouldn't have used his name. After completing the procedures and paying, she instructed, "Manager Yang, please help me with the driver's license and license plate registration first. As for when to deliver it, I'll notify you."
"Certainly, Miss Murong. Thank you for your business!"
Taking the contract and putting it into her bag, Murong Yanran smiled. She remembered that Li Haochen would be taking his fourth driving test in a few days. Once the license was ready, she would give him the car. He would surely be surprised, wouldn't he?
Thinking this, Murong Yanran smiled again. Her genuine smile was captivating enough to topple cities. You could see several men nearby who had bumped into walls, still trying to steal more glances despite the pain. Old habits die hard.
Following Li Haochen's instructions over the phone, Murong Yanran found the restaurant. The entrance was unassuming, but pushing the door open revealed a striking visual contrast. The interior was exquisitely decorated and stylish, a rare place for a quiet conversation. Moreover, it had elegant private rooms, which offered good privacy for customers.
"Why did it take so long?"
"It was crowded, and I had to wait a bit."
"Oh~" Li Haochen looked Murong Yanran up and down. "Did something happy happen?"
"You guess, hee hee!"
"Did you buy me a gift?"
Murong Yanran's eyes darted, and she propped up her chin, flashing a sly smile. "You haven't given me anything yet."
"Who says I haven't." As he spoke, Li Haochen conjured a small bouquet of pink roses as if by magic. "Do you like it?"
Murong Yanran smiled with dimples. She got up from her seat, picked up her phone, and leaned down to give it a sweet kiss. After a few clicks, she returned to her seat and started looking at the photos she had just taken.
"Am I just a prop now?"
Seeing Murong Yanran smiling and fiddling with her phone, he knew what she was doing.
"Yes, but this prop is quite good, hee hee!"
At this moment, she found a photo she was very pleased with and was editing the caption for her Moments: "Happiness on June 12th."
As soon as she posted it, she kept scrolling through her phone, looking for comments.
Her impressive Moments did not disappoint her. In less than a minute, there were already over a hundred comments, all of them full of blessings, envy, and even teasing.
"As a single dog, I shouldn't have WeChat."
"Fortunately, it's cloudy today. Otherwise, it would blind my 24-carat golden dog eyes."
"Where's the ring? I want to see the ring so I can give up and shed tears."
"..."
Looking at the humorous comment section, Murong laughed heartily, replying to each comment with great care, even neglecting Li Haochen's call to eat.
"Rumble~ Rumble~"
Two hours later, Murong Yanran touched her rumbling stomach, twisted her stiff neck, and was about to pick up her chopsticks, but there was nothing on the table. She said with a hint of blame, "I'm hungry, why haven't you served the food yet?"
"Look at the time. We finished eating long ago."
Murong Yanran made a cute face awkwardly and pouted, complaining, "Then why didn't you call me?"
"I called you three..." Murong Yanran's peach blossom eyes glared, and Li Haochen quickly shut his mouth. He couldn't say more, or she might go to the supermarket to buy durian later.
Li Haochen went out and ordered two more dishes. There weren't many customers at this time, so the waiting time was very short, arriving in about ten minutes. However, Murong Yanran didn't eat much. In the end, Li Haochen had to finish the remaining food, as wasting food was not good.
While Li Haochen was devouring the leftover dishes, Murong Yanran was scrolling through her phone again, occasionally letting out a silver bell laugh. It seemed she was looking at comments again.
After settling the bill, they didn't continue shopping and went straight back to the hotel by taxi.
And so, Li Haochen and Murong Yanran spent their time eating, drinking, and playing, visiting all the major scenic spots in Shanghai. On this day, they packed their bags, checked out, and visited Zhuang Jingnian's home to see his sister-in-law, who was recovering after childbirth, and his two nephews. Then they bid farewell to Li Dehai and his family. They had been out for five days, and it was time to go back, as many missions awaited them.
Two hours later, Li Haochen and Murong Yanran boarded their return flight. Unfortunately, there was no first class this time, so they had to settle for business class, which was still quite good.
They arrived back in Binhai past seven in the evening. After paying the parking fee, they didn't head home. It was too late to cook at this hour, so it was better to eat at their own hotel.
Arriving at the Binhai Hotel, late-night diners were arriving one after another. It seemed the business was as usual over the past few days.
Li Haochen and Murong Yanran found a table outside to sit down. The waiter recognized them, but didn't make a big deal out of it, treating them as regular customers. Of course, the serving speed would be different.
Since their food was served so quickly, the people at the next table naturally had complaints. Two young men were slapping the table and shouting at the waiter, putting on a show for the girl in front of them. "Hey, what's going on? We were here first, why did they get served first?"
"Yeah, if you don't give us an explanation, we won't come here anymore. What's so great about you?"
"That's our hotel owner..."
"The owner is amazing..." The voices of the two young men gradually quieted down, muttering resentfully. In the meantime, they glanced at Murong Yanran. Being a boss at such a young age, and so beautiful, filled their eyes with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
