Chapter 27: Young and Successful with a Bentley

Hang City was very congested.

Even during non-peak hours, it was just the same.

A twenty-minute drive had been extended to forty minutes by the driver.

It was not until the taxi stopped outside the Hang City Bentley Center that the driver, who had been chatting with Gu Heng for 40 minutes, reluctantly closed his mouth and then politely said, "We've arrived. This is the Hang City Gongshu Bentley 4S store."

"How much, driver?"

"96.5 yuan. Scanning for 96 is fine."

Gu Heng smiled, scanned the code, and directly paid 100 yuan, then he and Lin Jiayun got out of the car from either side.

The driver had shared quite a few pitfalls about the 4S stores along the way. Although Gu Heng might not need this information, at least it showed the driver's good intentions.

The extra 3.5 yuan was for the advice he'd given. Let him buy a bottle of Coke to quench his thirst.

At the same time, the notification sound in Gu Heng's mind rang again.

[As a hospitable passenger, you tipped a grand 3.5 yuan after the ride. Reward: 9999 yuan, Balance: 3,250,000 yuan.]

Hearing the notification in his mind, Gu Heng couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

What does it mean by a grand tip of 3.5 yuan?

Is it mocking me?

I was just reciprocating the kindness shown to me!

But now that I have money, I don't even need to actively change anything. My attitude really does change along with it. No wonder the old saying goes, 'the poor are cunning, the rich have conscience.' If it were before, would I even give an extra 3.5 yuan? For a cab fare of 96 yuan, I wouldn't have discussed with the driver to round it down.

Lin Jiayun saw Gu Heng suddenly laughing inexplicably and couldn't help but ask, "What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing much, just remembered something funny."

"You're crazy!"

While verbally teasing, she slowly hooked her arm through Gu Heng's, sneakily glancing to gauge his reaction...

Seeing no change in Gu Heng's expression, she couldn't help but grind her back teeth again...

Aren't playboys supposed to be easy to win over?

Why am I being this forward and he's still indifferent?!

Although she kept complaining, she was already pondering how to catch Gu Heng's attention...

In this tug of war between a high-level player and a newbie big spender, Gu Heng was already slightly gaining the upper hand...

....

A minute later, a salesperson in a fitted suit hurried out of the 4S store. Upon seeing Gu Heng and Lin Jiayun waiting outside, she quickly approached them with an apologetic smile.

"Are you Mr. Gu?"

Gu Heng glanced at the petite woman in front of him, knowing she was probably the salesperson Jiajun had referred him to, and he smiled and nodded.

After receiving Gu Heng's response, the salesperson's smile intensified, "Hello Mr. Gu, I'm Liu Wen from the Gongshu Bentley 4S store, and I was the one who contacted you earlier. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

After some pleasantries, Liu Wen invited the two inside the store.

Liu Wen didn't rush to show Gu Heng the cars but first made two cups of tea for them and then began to understand Gu Heng's car buying needs.

Thanks to Jiajun's numerous warnings and advice this morning, she knew that Gu Heng in front of her was a high-quality customer; after all, someone who could spend more than 300,000 yuan in a bar in one night certainly didn't lack buying power.

The better the customer, the more cautious she needed to be.

There was no other reason.

Because he had money. Money meant options. Although there weren't many brands at the level of Bentley, there were still quite a few. If she slightly dissatisfied him, he could easily switch to another 4S store.

A few minutes later...

After getting a rough idea of Gu Heng's needs, Liu Wen stood up, smiling, "Based on your preferences, Mr. Gu, we have two models in our store that would suit you; one is the Bentley Continental GT, and the other is the Bentley Flying Spur."

"If you choose the right configurations for these two cars, they would both be around three million after everything is accounted for."

While speaking, he continued to ask, "Mr. Gu, do you plan to rest a bit more, or would you prefer to look at the cars first? We actually have both models available in our dealership, and after all, no amount of talking can compare with experiencing them yourself."

"There's no need to rest, let's look at the cars first."

Gu Heng showed no interest in the high-end tea Liu Wen offered him, and stood up immediately after giving his answer.

"This way, Mr. Gu..."

As he spoke, he led Gu Heng towards the car display area...

At the end of the year, even high-end brand dealerships like Bentley had plenty of visitors, with salespeople busily tending to their needs...

However, glancing around, the youngest customer seemed to be in his thirties, and the combination of young men and women like Gu Heng and Lin Jiayun was unique. Because of this, numerous curious glances occasionally slid over Gu Heng...

"Mr. Gu, take a look. This is the Bentley Continental GT I mentioned, the latest 2024 model."

A pale blue two-door sedan appeared before Gu Heng, and immediately, his eyes were fixed on it...

Not only him, but Lin Jiayun's eyes also brightened even more...

"The Continental GT is categorized as a sports car. As a sports car, of course, appearance is essential, which is why it's regarded as the most beautiful Bentley model, without any rivals...

It is also equipped with..." (Skipping the functional details for brevity, feel free to check online.)

For five long minutes, Liu Wen smoothly introduced all the basic details of the Continental GT to Gu Heng...

However, during those five minutes, Gu Heng didn't pay attention to a single performance feature she mentioned...

The only thing on his mind was one word.

Cool.

If he drove this car back to his hometown, how impressive would that be?

Not to mention, this car is worth three million!

In the entire family tree, he, Gu Heng, would be the only one from the Gu family to have ever driven a luxury car worth three million. If this were ancient times, he would probably earn a whole page dedicated to him in the family records for his achievements.

After finishing her introduction, Liu Wen couldn't help but smile as she noticed Gu Heng's eyes almost glued to the Continental GT...

Why did she first show the Continental GT to Gu Heng?

Because she knew all too well the appeal this model had on young people...

Perhaps in terms of appearance, the Continental GT might not match Big Bull or the McLaren P1, but in the three-million price range, it's hard to find a competitor.

And Gu Heng's reaction confirmed that her thoughts were correct.

"Mr. Gu, what do you think?"

Listening to Liu Wen's question, Gu Heng toned down a bit but nodded in satisfaction, "Can I test drive it?"

"Of course you can, would you like to try it now, Mr. Gu?"

"Yes."

"Please wait a moment; I will apply for it. However, Mr. Gu, you can sit in the car in the meantime."

As she spoke, she opened the car door for Gu Heng.

Gu Heng didn't hesitate, and immediately sat down in the driver's seat...

Looking at the luxurious interior, Gu Heng's heart couldn't help but beat faster...

It felt like if he just decided, he could drive away the car he would normally not even dare to dream about...

Touching the smooth gear knob like a stray dog, a phrase he had seen before suddenly popped into his mind...

To be young and drive a Bentley, life is like playing a game...

His current life did indeed feel like playing a game, a game with modified data...
