Chapter 785: Cars as gifts

Same day.

Dong Xuebing went to many places.

Dong Xuebing had bought the sports lottery online. The website will credit winnings below a certain amount into the winner’s account. But for significant amounts, he has to collect the winning ticket from a designated lottery store and claim the prize at the Sports Lottery Center with his identification card. He spent the whole afternoon running around before getting the 100 million into his bank account.

Dong Xuebing finally gets his money, and he feels secure.

Dong Xuebing looked at the time and arranged to meet Xie Huilan at the Car market at North Third Ring Road.

Outside of the Cars market.

Xie Huilan is chatting with Xie Ran and Xie Jing outside.

Xie Hao is also around, talking loudly with exaggerated gestures.

“Eh, Brother Dong is here.” Xie Jing saw Dong Xuebing and waved to him.

“Brother Dong.” Xie Ran nodded and greeted Dong Xuebing politely.

Xie Huilan smiles. “Why are you so late? We have waited for a while.”

“It’s evening peak period, and the traffic is congested.” Dong Xuebing looks at Xie Hao. “Why are you here? Should you be doing your homework at home?”

Xie Hao giggled. “You and my Sis are buying cars, and I must be here to offer my suggestions. I am not boasting. I know a lot about cars, and I can recommend a few good ones.”

Xie Huilan laughed. “This kid overheard my conversation with Xiao Ran and Xiao Jing, and he insisted on tagging along.”

Xie Jing points at Xie Hao. “This brat is so annoying.”

“Go, go, go….” Xie Hao ignored them and pulled them into the Car market excitedly.

The showrooms are crowded at this time. Many buyers are checking out the cars on display.

Xie Hao loves cars and is very excited. He started introducing the cars to Xie Huilan and the rest like a salesperson.

Dong Xuebing secretly pulled Xie Huilan aside and whispered to her. “Let’s buy your younger Brother and Sister cars first.”

Xie Huilan nodded. “Ok.”

“Which car and model do they prefer?”

“Haha…. I am not sure.”

“Let me ask them.”

Dong Xuebing walked over to Xie Jing and Xie Ran. “Xiao Ran, Xiao Jing, which cars do you all prefer?”

Xie Jie smiles. “Which type of cars do you and my Sis like?”

“I don’t know either. Which do you think is better?” Dong Xuebing throws the question back at her.

Xie Jing giggled. “If it’s for you and my Sis, A6L is not bad. Most government agencies use this model, and it doesn’t stand out.”

“Huh? A6?!” Xie Hao interrupts. “It’s too old, and you can see it everywhere on the streets.”

Xie Jing gave Xie Hao a stare. “If you can see it everywhere, it means it is a good car, and everyone is getting it. What do you know?”

Xie Hao ignored his second Sis. “Brother Dong, you must not listen to her. A6 is outdated.”

Xie Huilan looks at her younger Sis. “Xiao Jing, do you like A6?”

“My unit’s car is this model.” Xie Jing replied. “I had been driving it for a while and am used to it. I like the feel of it. My Mum and Dad had wanted to buy a car for my brother and me, but it cost around 400,000 RMB. Two of them will cost almost one million. We decided to get other cars after discussion. I intend to get an Accord. Bro, which car did you say you wanted to buy?”

Xie Ran replied. “The new Passat.”

Xie Hao smacked his lips. “You all are getting all the lousy cars. Those cost only 200,000 RMB each.”

Xie Jing gave her younger brother a stare. “Do you think I am rich?! Only 200,000?! I got to borrow money from my parents to get it. If I am rich, I will not get A6. I would pick A8! Who doesn’t like to drive good cars? You will know how hard it is to earn money after you start working.”

Xie Hao replied. “Audi A8 is not bad.”

Xie Ran laughed. “Of course. It cost one million. How bad can it be?”

Xie Hao replied. “My principle is to either get the best one or don’t get one. What’s the rush to get one now? If you don’t have enough money, save a few more years.”

Xie Jing replied. “I can wait, but my brother cannot. He will be posted to the grassroots level soon. It will be inconvenient if he doesn’t have a car.”

Dong Xuebing suddenly says. “Let’s go to the Audi showroom.”

Xie Jing looks at them. “Are you two also thinking of getting Audi?”

Xie Huilan nodded. “Let’s go there first.”

They walked to the Audi showroom on the western side. Audi is quite popular and displays many models in the showroom. But Audi cars are pretty pricy. Many buyers and salespeople are standing around the A4L, A8L, Q5, and Q7 models. Xie Hao knows a lot about cars and tells Dong Xuebing and the rest about A8L and Q7’s specs.

A8L is a good car.

Dong Xuebing asked the salesperson. The latest model of A8L is around 900,000 RMB, and the most expensive variant is around 1 million.

Xie Jing and Xie Ran went over to look at the A8L model, and Xie Jing even got into the driver’s seat to have a feel of it. She looks like she likes it a lot. A8L is the best-looking and biggest in its series, and it’s suitable for government leaders. It is spacious and powerful, and it is imported.

Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan exchanged looks and smiled.

Xie Jing and Xie Ran came out of the car, and Xie Jing turned to Dong Xuebing. “Sis, Brother Dong, this car is not bad. You two should bring it out for a test drive.”

Dong Xuebing replied. “We don’t need to test it. We will take it.”

Xie Hao is stunned. “Why did you decide so fast? You should check out other cars first.”

“No need.” Dong Xuebing looked at Xie Jing and Xie Ran. “Oh, which color do you think is better?”

Xie Jing thought for a while. “You should get a black color if you are driving it, and silver for my Sis. What do you think? I think the silver color is nice and is more suitable for women.”

Xie Huilan smiles and nods. “Ok. Let’s listen to her. Haha….”

“Eh, over here.” Dong Xuebing waved to a salesperson and pointed to the A8L. He is buying a black and a silver standard version of this model. Both cars cost around 2 million.

The salesperson did not expect Dong Xuebing to decide so quickly. She brought them to a resting area beside the showroom to settle the paperwork.

Dong Xuebing left to make payments.

Ten minutes later.

Resting area.

Dong Xuebing returned with a receipt and passed it to the female salesperson.

The salesperson smiled professionally and showed Dong Xuebing a document. “Please look at this. If everything is alright, please sign here. We don’t have cars now, but they will arrive next week. You can collect the cars then.” The salesperson took out another document and gave it to Xie Huilan. “You need to sign it too, and I need your identification cards.”

Dong Xuebing glanced at the contract and interrupted the salesperson. “Don’t give it to us.”

The salesperson is stunned. “Huh? Why?”

Dong Xuebing took the document from Xie Huilan and gave both documents to Xie Jing and Xie Ran. “Xiao Ran, Xiao Jing, sign your names on it.”

Xie Ran is confused. “Sign our names?”

“Why are we signing it?” Xie Jing is also confused.

Dong Xuebing exchanged looks with Xie Huilan and replied. “The cars are for you two.”

Xie Jing got shocked and quickly pushed the contract back to Dong Xuebing. “No…. we cannot accept it.”

Xie Ran also waved his hand. “That’s right, Brother Dong. We cannot accept it.”

Dong Xuebing smiled and placed the contracts in front of them. “Don’t reject us. Your eldest Sis and I had discussed this before coming. We are getting a good car for each of you. Just take it as a gift from us. Alright. Just sign your names on the contract. Oh, we are only paying for the cars. You two got to get the registration plates and other approvals yourself.”

Xie Jing is anxious. “Brother Dong, we cannot accept it. We will accept if it costs tens of thousands of RMB. But these two cars cost two million. We….”

Xie Ran added. “That’s right. It is too expensive.”

Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and knocked on the desk. “Alright. Stop talking so much and sign!”

“Sis….” Xie Ran replied. “How can we accept such a valuable gift?”

Xie Huilan smiled. “What wrong with your Eldest Sis and your Brother-in-law giving you all gifts? Are you trying to make me angry?”

Xie Hao giggled and poked Xie Ran and Xie Jing. “Our Eldest Sis and Brother-in-law are wealthy. Don’t you two know how to take advantage of them? Hurry up and sign it.”

In the end, Xie Jing and Xie Ran signed the contract as the cars had been paid for. They thanked Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan again. “Sis, Brother-in-law. Thank you.”

Dong Xuebing replied. “We are a family. What’s there to thank?”

Xie Hao giggled and went up to Dong Xuebing. “Brother-in-law, we are also a family. Are you and Sis going to get me a car too? You cannot favor them and leave me out.”

Xie Huilan laughed.

Dong Xuebing looks at Xie Hao. “You want to be part of everything. You are still schooling now. Wait until you get your driving license first. Alright…. I will give you a car when you get into a university.”

Xie Hao laughed. “How much will the car be?”

“One million.”

“Oh yeah!” Xie Hao cheered.
