Chapter 836: Chapter 206: Shang Wanjun: Do I Look Like a Fox Spirit?

After eating, Xu Lin took Shang Wanjun to a car dealership.

"If it’s in the hundreds of thousands, just go for BBA."

"BBA works too."

Shang Wanjun didn’t understand cars, and she had never paid attention to them before, so she simply let Xu Lin help her pick one.

"Which of the three BBA brands do you like?"

"Which do you think is good?"

"They’re all about the same."

Xu Lin thought that when buying a car, if your budget is just three hundred thousand, as a middle-class family, buying a car that needs to last at least ten years, you must pick and choose carefully, trying to extract the best value from your three hundred thousand.

But for the wealthy, it’s another story. They might think this car looks better or suits their aesthetic more and just buy it without all those miscellaneous considerations.

Once bought, they might not even drive it much.

"SUVs are quite big; you probably don’t like them, right?"

"I don’t like them."

"Then go for a sedan."

Under a million, there are not many BBA sedans left, eliminating those under five hundred thousand.

Going further up, there are just a few more options.

"Okay, okay."

"How about the BMW M4?"

Xu Lin took Shang Wanjun to see the BMW M4. Director Pei’s car was a BMW M4; Xu Lin thought it was pretty good, and under a million, it’s a nice choice. He spotted this car at first glance, a white one.

Xu Lin asked her to sit inside and try it.

Shang Wanjun did as he suggested.

"This one then!" Shang Wanjun sat inside for just over a minute.

She knew nothing about cars, a complete novice, feeling this was about right.

"Want to check out some others?"

"No need, I trust you."

"Then let’s go with this one."

Xu Lin didn’t want to bother showing her other cars.

Snow mountain white, MX Thunder edition, around 920,000 landing price.

But it’s just a deposit now; the balance is paid upon delivery.

"Driving a car like this, should stop some people from bothering you in the future?"

"It can prevent some, I guess."

Among all the girls Xu Lin knew, Shang Wanjun had the most admirers.

Why is that?

Maybe because Shang Wanjun seems like someone who doesn’t partake much in worldly affairs, or perhaps those guys prefer someone like her; the reasons are probably quite complex.

Shang Wanjun didn’t give anyone chances, not like a heartbreaker leading a bunch of guys on while keeping a pool of people at her beck and call, even more.

Shang Wanjun simply ignored those guys.

But people can be quite stubborn; seeing a girl, the colder she acts, the more pure they think she is, the more they like her.

Of course, there are also some fools who like to boast and spout all sorts of dirty talk, saying all kinds of nonsense about contrast.

What’s the point of buying a car?

With a car approaching a million, most poor guys wouldn’t even dare approach.

Almost every guy has two fundamental traits.

One is driven by desire, that is, sees a pretty girl and becomes infatuated, it’s just a matter of how strong that infatuation is.

The other is measuring themselves against standards.

Like if this girl dresses plainly and doesn’t wear makeup, that guy might feel this girl is easy prey, maybe he wouldn’t need to spend much to get close to her, maybe just treating her to a meal, buying a bouquet, or gifting a small present would be enough.

But if this girl carries tens of thousands worth of Hermès bags, lives in a luxurious Bulgari apartment costing tens of thousands a month, travels in business cars, or drives a car worth nearly a million herself, the poor guys will be weeded out first because poor men generally dare not approach wealthy women, most men are quite insecure, that’s the so-called self-awareness, maybe he doesn’t even realize it himself, especially when facing women.

And when wealthy men want to pursue this girl, they would also consider if gifting her something worth several thousand would be attractive, it obviously wouldn’t work when she uses tens of thousands worth Hermès items, how could she appreciate your lowly bag worth just several thousand.

Since starting her doctorate in September, within the school, undergraduates, master’s students have pursued her, classmates pursued her, seniors pursued her, Ph.D. students from other classes pursued her, even teachers pursued her.

She told Xu Lin, roughly 130 people.

Shang Wanjun ignored these people, but she always has admirers chasing her, which makes Shang Wanjun annoyed.

Xu Lin said, just buy a car.

With an expensive car, at least then, the majority wouldn’t dare to pursue her.

The car delivery is next month on a certain week.

So after leaving the dealership, Xu Lin drove to Wanjun’s new home.

It’s currently under renovation, just to check on its progress.

The renovation has been ongoing for a month now, and it’s still a construction site.

Upon entering, the air was filled with the smell of cement.

"How much longer is it expected to finish?"

"At most three months probably, maybe February or March for move-in."

"That’s fine. By the way, do your family know?"

"Haven’t told them, my mom likes to nag, I want my own personal life."

"That’s also good."

For young people nowadays, if possible, it’s better to live independently rather than with parents.

Because the lifestyle philosophies between the two generations are completely different; the generational gap is too large.

Xu Lin and others stayed there for twenty minutes, since it was essentially in a bare-bones state, there wasn’t much to see.

After leaving the house, Xu Lin took her to look at some furnishings.

They looked at everything because furnishings cover a lot of stuff.

"Xu Lin, what do you think of this mattress?"

Shang Wanjun sat on a Simmons mattress.

This mattress priced over forty thousand, one could say it’s very expensive.
