Chapter 343: 256. Generously Accept Gifts_2

The girl pouted and pinched him with almost negligible force.

"Alright, you said it, Ha, then I won’t be polite, I actually have a gift prepared for you too."

"Don’t worry, I’ll definitely graciously accept anything my boyfriend gives me!"

Zhou Sinin giggled, not taking it seriously at all.

"You’re dressed so beautifully, to be honest, I don’t even know where to take you for dinner that would be suitable..."

Lu Jincheng drove very, very slowly.

"Anywhere would seem like a street-side stall."

On one hand, it was slightly congested because of Christmas; on the other hand, he was indeed somewhat distracted.

"Wherever, I just threw something on."

A woman dresses for the man who pleases her.

With that bit of praise, all her effort getting up early to dress up today wasn’t a waste.

Zhou Sinin also knew that her poise and figure, face and physique were always acknowledged by others.

Especially the dress she agonized over for more than ten minutes before finally choosing, one that had a hint of Christmas style.

It was purple-red, satin, waist-tightening, flowing down, and then there was a single embroidered neckline design across the chest that was charming and fashionable.

If it weren’t for the long coat she was wearing on top, her enchanting shoulder line, two delicate collar bones, and a pair of proud peaks would all be more or less exposed to the air.

Her flawless, lard-like skin was like white jade, and a few veins were like barely visible streams under ice.

And then there was that enchanting, subtly visible line across her chest.

She was almost certain that everyone has a love for beauty, and her boyfriend would probably think she looked good too.

But Lu Jincheng didn’t even bother with any preliminaries, he just threw out straightforward compliments, and she couldn’t help but blush, with a slight pout of her cherry lips.

"Anything’s fine for eating, even a street-side stall, I’m not fussy like Guan Guan."

"No rush, let’s eat something later."

Lu Jincheng said with a smile.

...

"No way, you’re sure what you said about the ’gift’ is this?"

Zhou Sinin’s eyes widened, and her soft voice lost some of its control.

The noon breeze blew softly, and the sunlight was warm.

On Christmas Day, the usually crowded outdoor parking lot of Nanhu Industrial Park, vacant due to the non-working day, had become desolate.

The sunlight slanted, gently spilling onto the concrete, faintly showing only a few old cars, each lying in a corner, mostly long-term employee vehicles or abandoned cars.

In the northwest corner of the industrial park’s parking lot, even in winter where the fallen leaves scattered, there was a densely packed tree bush where a black Buick GL8 was parked inconspicuously.

Only by going behind the van could you see a few more parking spots under the bushes.

And there, parked somewhat out of place was a brand-new sports car.

Zhou Sinin stood near it.

It was a white Maserati Ghibli, a four-seat sports sedan.

At that moment, the car, just uncovered by the man, lay there quietly, shedding its head-turning charm that it flaunted driving down Nanhu Avenue.

This was a car newly acquired in the name of Golden Stone Coffee Company.

The on-the-road price with purchase tax, customizations, and insurance was 895,000 yuan for the Maserati Ghibli with a 2.0T engine, special pearlescent white paint, and an interior design recommended by the 4S shop called Magic Lingering Beauty.

Although later on, the reputation of Maserati was somewhat tarnished by pyramid sellers and plastic surgery ladies, and could not be considered top-tier luxury among the rich second-generation crowd.

Still, considering it was a Christmas gift for the eighteen-year-old Zhou Sinin, it was already enough to make others envious.

"Yeah."

Lu Jincheng put his arm around her shoulder, chortling as he added a few words, trying to get her to quickly accept the reality.

"You just said Ha, don’t have double standards, graciously accept whatever is given."

"No way, you’re cheating, this... it’s too valuable!"

Zhou Sinin wanted to say something but hesitated and just shook her head vigorously.

"I don’t want it, I’ve only bought my car a few months ago, why would I change cars?"

"Listen to me, just get in the car and slowly listen to me, baby."

Mr. Lu laughed as he opened the car door and sat down.

"This car is registered under the company’s name, being professionally trained as you are, you should understand its use, right?"

"You bought it to offset 13% in taxes?"

Zhou Sinin was quick on the uptake, swiftly grasping the rationale.

Vehicles purchased under a company’s name could be used to deduct the payable VAT, with buying a car potentially leading to a deduction of up to thirteen percent.

"That’s only part of it, you’re a boss now after all, and driving a Mini lacks presence; what if investors don’t trust us during the next financing round?"

Lu Jincheng’s lips curled into a smile, like a master stroking a kitten, patiently explaining bit by bit.

"Oh."

"Driving a Maserati doesn’t require much talking, the moment the trident shines, everyone knows Boss Zhou must be capable."

"It’s all about face."

Zhou Sinin pouted slightly, already less resistant in her heart, even starting to think he made some sense.

"And why do you need to talk about financing when you’ve just taken out such a big loan?"

That was something Zhou Sinin always found hard to understand.

She adjusted the driver’s seat and frowned as she asked.

As the legal representative, she was still carrying a loan of thirty million.

Lu Jincheng had always been talking sense, spinning grand visions of the future for Golden Stone Coffee.

"Trust me, this money’s for expanding nationwide."

Consistently, stores spread through the land.

But...

It seemed like after opening fifty stores with great fanfare in Jiang City, Lu Jincheng’s developmental focus had abruptly shifted.

First, he spent nearly ten million in the High-tech District to buy a piece of land, saying it would be used to build a factory.

Then, he coaxed Zhou Sinin, saying the money was just needed for temporary turnover, and once they won the copyright litigation with a significant payout, it would be transferred back immediately.

And now he’s spending millions on a sports car...

Although it was a gift for her.

"We’ll definitely need to finance further, drinking Chinese coffee, telling Chinese stories."

Lu Jincheng smiled without further explanation.

The passenger seat of the Ghibli could recline to 155 degrees, nearly flat.

At that moment, he was comfortably lying back on the passenger seat, signaling Zhou Sinin over with a wave.

"See, this is very convenient, my legs are so long, I couldn’t stretch out in your previous car."

"Shameless."

Zhou Sinin hummed lightly, her face reddening as she refused to look at him.

But the space inside the Ghibli wasn’t that big.

The brand-new seats were wrapped in tufted leather covers, still exuding a scent of leather.

"Here, the keys, from now on, this car is yours."

Lu Jincheng took out the keys from his pocket and placed them near the center console, next to a bottle of Moonlight limited edition car air freshener.

"Just a temporary license for a few days, remember to tell me before you go to the DMV to get your plates, I’ll give them a heads-up for you."

The man crossed his legs, looking completely at ease.

"Wow, Mr. Lu is so impressive now? You can pull strings for license plates?"

Zhou Sinin blinked, curious.

"Don’t think too much, it’s just that they’ll give me a heads-up when the numeric plates are being released."

Lu Jincheng gestured meaningfully with his hands.

"Whether you’re lucky enough to draw a good one is up to you."

"Is that so."

Zhou Sinin finally accepted the reality.

She now owned a new car.

It was bought, the reasons lofty, blocking all her paths to refusal.

But this car, dubbed the king of second-hand pretense, truly aligned with a generation’s aesthetics.

Leaving aside the product, the exterior and interior looked good, and the brand was impressive.

For a girl, that was enough.

She, mimicking Lu Jincheng, reclined her seat, opened the sunroof, seemingly gazing at the sky and clouds.

But with the heavy winter mood and pale sunlight, neither of them was truly appreciating the scenery.

Silence, snuggled with silence, and gradually the car was filled only with each other’s heartbeat and breath.

Lu Jincheng had moved closer at some point, leaning down.

The girl’s heart inexplicably began to pound.

"I... I’m a little hungry."

"One kiss before we eat."

Zhou Sinin quickly closed her eyes.

In her new car, her youthful fragrance blossomed resplendently around Nanhu Industrial Park.

A passionate kiss, soft intersection, sharing sweetness.
