The Mercedes-Maybach GLS600 in classic black and white color scheme cruised through Beidou’s streets. Zhou Wang lazily leaned back in the passenger seat. At yet another traffic light stop, he glanced at Lin Ran in the driver’s seat, somewhat amused.
With Jiang Qingkui being extremely busy recently, and Zhou Wang himself being a "leisure seeker," Miao Ying was temporarily assigned to Jiang Qingkui by Zhou Wang until a suitable driver was recruited via the headhunting company to assist her.
Lin Ran, who happened to visit Beidou, became his temporary driver.
However, Lin Ran seemed to be not very familiar with driving, looking overly nervous.
The seat was adjusted upright and very close to the steering wheel. Lin Ran leaned forward with her body tensed, her large chest restrained by the seatbelt, which seemed terrifyingly exaggerated, as though she might accidentally honk the horn at any moment.
Zhou Wang had seen her in a bikini before, so he knew she was genuine and couldn’t help but shake his head:
"Sister Ran, didn’t you claim to have seven years of driving experience? Why so nervous? Relax..."
"I don’t drive much usually."
Lin Ran smiled sheepishly, then quickly added, "But don’t worry, boss, I’m not that bad. It’s just that this is an unpaid car, so I’m trying to be cautious. I couldn’t afford to compensate if it got scratched..."
"No one’s asking you to pay, what are you afraid of? Drive faster; my time is more valuable."
Zhou Wang shook his head and urged.
This brand new Maybach GLS600 indeed hadn’t been paid for yet, as it was a "test drive vehicle" provided by the Mercedes 4S store.
But unlike typical test drives, the Beidou Mercedes flagship 4S store didn’t specify an exact test drive period, which meant Zhou Wang could keep driving it as long as he liked.
If he wasn’t satisfied, he could return and switch to another model to continue test driving.
Even if Zhou Wang needed, the beautiful sales champion from the store could accompany him throughout...
This was a privilege offered to him by the Mercedes 4S store free of charge, albeit with some implicit strategy.
Mr. Zhou, with a billion-dollar net worth, having driven the car for several days already, would surely feel embarrassed to take advantage without paying, right?
At worst, even if he doesn’t like this one, he will eventually purchase another model, right?
Since Wangzhou Culture established a branch in Beidou and currently has club operations to manage, buying a few corporate vehicles is inevitable. Besides having Jiang Qingkui order a few domestic Yangwang U7s and U8s, procuring a luxury sedan is also necessary.
After all, Zhou Wang’s current only car in Beidou, a Lamborghini Aventador, isn’t quite suitable for daily use.
Nowadays, Zhou Wang doesn’t mind what brand to buy as long as it’s comfortable and classy. After a trip abroad, he returned with enriched wealth, where spending three to five million now was like nothing.
Among the various 4S stores Huang Duming contacted, Mercedes showed the most enthusiasm. Thus, Zhou Wang nodded in agreement, asking Huang Duming to initially bring back a latest model Maybach GLS600.
Given it costs several million, this car is a king regarding comfort and luxury among current SUAs, without any significant issues. Zhou Wang had already planned the payment.
He originally considered another car, also a king among SUVs, the Range Rover.
Zhou Wang, thinking from a collector’s perspective, believes he should have one of each luxury car brand to be a qualified tycoon. As of now, he still lacks a BMW and a Range Rover.
However, given Beidou won’t be his permanent residence, Zhou Wang is too lazy to consider further, prioritizing casualness.
"Oh, oh, I got it..."
Lin Ran nodded and slightly increased the speed.
More than ten minutes later, the Maybach drove into Beidou Yihua Alley, following the GPS, quickly arriving before a double-story gray-white building with a private courtyard.
Looking at the somewhat outdated small building in front, Zhou Wang clicked his tongue.
It’s something he gradually realized after returning to the country, that the actual value of this small building isn’t as high as shown in the appraisal document provided by Brioni.
From this angle, he was essentially "fooled" by Brioni.
As he planned to get out of the car, turning around, he saw Lin Ran standing still, puzzled: "Park, what are you waiting for?"
"Boss, I, I might not be able to park..."
Lin Ran blushed, stammering.
Zhou Wang was taken aback, looked outside, and suddenly understood.
The alleys in Beidou are relics of history, naturally extremely narrow. Parking in the alley is not easy, as slightly skewing the park might block the road.
The few cars already parked in the alley, without exception, were tightly against the walls. Visually, even a finger might not fit between the car bodies and the wall roots.
"Let me do it."
Zhou Wang, looking at the alley, knew Lin Ran’s difficulty and asked her to get out.
A few minutes later, Zhou Wang, drenched in sweat, finally parked the car in a spot packed both front and back, left and right, he exhaled with relief.
...Scratching wasn’t the issue; the embarrassment was.
After getting out, Zhou Wang noticed Qi Jiayi had already arrived.
She stood on the steps before the courtyard entrance, wearing a chestnut women’s windbreaker paired with a black and white professional skirt suit. Her face suggested abstinence similar to her senior sister and her figure boasted the hotness similar to Jiang Qingkui, all constituting the fundamental attributes of this cold and alluring attorney.
