Chapter 415: Chapter 415 Too Wasteful, Right?_1
"The fur is really nice, look at the hair on it, it’s so dark and shiny! Old Liu, our neighbor, bought a fur coat a while back, said it cost over ten thousand, but I think compared to this one, it’s nothing, really." My mother, holding the mink coat, couldn’t stop admiring it.
Wang Ye chuckled bitterly to himself. He remembered the coat cost several thousand US dollars. If that was worth less than ten thousand CNY, it would be a real rip-off...
As for the Patek Philippe watch, Wang Ye didn’t even mention the price!
His parents didn’t recognize the brand. Though his dad was somewhat worldly, in his mind, the best watch brand was Rolex.
Brands like Patek Philippe, Lange, and so on, were unheard of for them!
They though these were Russian brands, praising their aesthetics for quite a while.
......
He drove all day today and was indeed tired.
After having dinner and chatting with his parents for a while, Wang Ye struggled to keep his eyes open.
He got up to take a hot bath, then went back to his own room to sleep.
He fell into a deep sleep, but his parents were somewhat restless that night...
Mostly because Wang Ye’s visit this time brought too many surprises!
Honestly, when they dipped into their savings to send Wang Ye abroad, his parents naturally hoped he would achieve extraordinary things and have a successful career.
But that was just a hope, and not a certainty.
After all, Wang Ye didn’t get into any prestigious university when he took the college entrance examination. Even if he studied abroad, his future prospects were uncertain.
Both his parent even contemplated the possibility of finding him a decent job at a local company if he couldn’t find anything good once he got his diploma...
After Wang Ye went to bed, his parents also returned to their bedroom.
It was already late at night, and by their usual routines, they should have been asleep already.
But tonight, they were tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
"Hey, do you think everything Xiaoye told us is true?" His mom suddenly asked.
His dad was also wide awake at the moment. He looked up, not sure what he was looking at, and replied, "It should be true! You did keep the card with one million US dollars, didn’t you? Besides, what’s the point of him lying to us about this stuff?"
His mom thought about it and found this quite reasonable.
She was silent for a while before sighing, "Is abroad really that magical? I didn’t see any signs of Xiaoye excelling back in our home country, but within a year of studying abroad, it seems like he has become a different person!"
His dad scoffed at this, "What does home or abroad have to do with it? Haven’t you read in the papers that there are many students studying abroad that are ’junk’? They squander their parents’ money and never study, always messing around. In the end, it still depends on the person. Xiaoye is a child who keeps his nose to the grindstone. Even if he didn’t go abroad, he would probably be roughly the same in our home country..."
Both of them chatted on and off into the night before slowly falling silent and drifting off to sleep.
.......
The next morning, Wang Ye didn’t wake up until past ten.
Just as he was rubbing his eyes and walking out of his room, he almost bumped into his dad, who was pacing back and forth at the door.
"Uh... Dad, what are you pacing around here for?" Wang Ye asked, surprised.
His dad didn’t have time to answer his question and hurriedly asked, "Xiaoye, the car at the entrance of the alley is..."
"The one I drove back." Wang Ye replied candidly.
His dad’s eyes widened, "Why didn’t you tell us last night?"
"You didn’t ask last night." Wang Ye replied casually.
His dad scratched his head, it seemed that he indeed had not asked.
They had always thought Wang Ye came back by coach and never thought he drove back on his own!
"That car... is it a Mercedes?" His dad probed.
His mom might have mistaken it for a BJ Jeep, but his dad was a bit more seasoned.
Although he had never seen a Mercedes-Benz G-class, he recognized the three-pronged star emblem on the logo. Besides, he had walked around the G-class car several times and, judging by the car’s aura, the quality of the sheet metal, and the conspicuous "V8" logo, there was no way it could be a BJ Jeep...
"Yup, how did you know it was my car, dad?" Wang Ye asked with a smile.
His dad rolled his eyes and grumbled, "I know all the people who live around here! I know what kind of car everyone drives, and all of sudden, a big Mercedes pops up, and it even has a black license plate. It’s parked right at the entrance of our alley, so naturally, I would think of you."
Well, his dad’s analysis was pretty spot-on.
"Haha, I didn’t expect you to know so much about cars, dad. This model can’t be bought in our country. I borrowed it from a friend’s company. With the bad roads in our county, it would be inconvenient without a car during the Spring Festival, so I drove one back from the capital." Wang Ye laughed.
"This car... costs over a million, doesn’t it?" His dad asked curiously.
A car worth millions, let alone in a county town, there probably isn’t many in the entire Zhongyuan Province!
At least in Yangnan area, he hasn’t seen one.
"Hmm... it’s probably more than that. If sold in our country, it would likely be over two million." Wang Ye said truthfully.
This was Mercedes-Benz G55!
It is even more expensive than the Mercedes S Class. The Mercedes S500 costs about two million on the road in our country these days, not to mention the G55.
His dad’s eyes widened instantly.
A car worth two million...
He had never even dreamt about that!
"Do you want to take it for a spin?" Wang Ye pulled the keys from his pocket and handed them to his dad.
His dad was tempted. As a man, who wouldn’t like a luxury car?
He had his own car in the unit, although it was just a small two-box Xiali...
He was about to take the keys, but managed to control himself and shook his head, "Forget it, I’d be too scared to drive such an expensive car. If anything happened and it needed to be fixed, it would cost tens of thousands just for a minor repair."
Wang Ye stuffed the keys into his dad’s hand and said indifferently, "It’s fine, just drive it! This car insurance was purchased when it was bought. As long as you don’t hit anyone, everything else doesn’t matter."
Hearing what Wang Ye said, his dad finally held the keys tightly and cheerfully said, "Okay then, I’ll just drive a few circles nearby. There aren’t many people or cars on the road here, so it should be okay if I drive slowly."
Just as his dad was about to go downstairs, Wang Ye called out to his back, "Oh right, dad! There are a few cases of Moutai and a case of Zhonghua cigarettes in the trunk of the car. I asked someone to buy them in the capital, they’re genuine! If you want to smoke, just go and get them. These are all gifts I’ve prepared for visiting relatives."
His dad nearly stumbled down the stairs, catching himself on the handrail in time.
Using Moutai and Zhonghua for visiting relatives?
That’s a bit...
...wasteful, isn’t it?
