I GET A RANDOM NEW OCCUPATION EVERY WEEK
Chapter 2345: Number 2346: This car costs 120 million.Chapter 2345: Number 2346: This car costs 120 million.
The man speaking is named Li Xingqing, and he is the principal of Gu Jingshan’s school.
And he is the director of the school, so there is a superior-subordinate relationship between them.
Beside Li Xingqing, there was also a middle-aged woman and a young man around twenty.
They are his wife, He Pingping, and his son, Li Bo.
“It’s not really up to us, we’ll have to see how Gu Yiran arranges it,” Gu Jingshan said:
“She’s going to Yuhang tonight for the New Year. When she will return to work is still unknown.”
“This isn’t a big deal,” Li Xingqing said:
“Yuhang isn’t far from Zhong Hai, just an hour or two. If it’s inconvenient for her to commute, let my son go pick her up.”
“Uh… I’ll ask her about her timing when I get the chance and arrange it.”
Gu Jingshan knew very well why they had come today; they simply wanted to set up a match between their children.
But Gu Yiran had made it clear that she wouldn’t accept a blind date, so he couldn’t really arrange it himself.
However, since Li Xingqing was the principal, it was difficult for him to openly refuse, so he could only reluctantly agree, and how to arrange it would be a matter for later.
“Why put it off? Didn’t you just say Gu Yiran will be back soon? When she returns, discuss it and settle the matter immediately. It’s pointless to delay, don’t you think?”
“Um, okay.”
Gu Jingshan reluctantly agreed, feeling somewhat apprehensive.
His niece, although quite attractive, had a bit of a temper.
If she knew what he had arranged for her, wouldn’t she turn against him, her uncle?
Li Qiao Hong, sitting nearby, saw the difficult position her husband was in, and said:
“In previous years, when Gu Yiran returned, many schoolmates and colleagues came to see her. I don’t know what her plans are this year.”
Li Qiao Hong’s words hinted at pushing off the matter.
In the world of adults, failing to agree directly is equivalent to rejection.
“There’s always time to hang out with schoolmates and colleagues. I’ve already booked a place for us to go hiking and visit hot springs during the long holiday. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?” said Li Xingqing.
“Let’s wait for Gu Yiran to return, and I will talk to her about it.”
“That’s the spirit,” said Li Xingqing:
“Our Li Bo works at the Finance Bureau and is already a deputy head. Your family’s Gu Yiran is also well-regarded; it’s time for them to interact more. Our families are so close; our children shouldn’t become strangers.”
Gu Jingshan and Li Qiao Hong exchanged a glance, having little they could say, and could only nod in agreement.
Gu Yiran is his niece, and even if it was for a blind date, he would have to inform her parents; he couldn’t decide this matter alone.
Moreover, Gu Yiran had said before that she hadn’t even considered these matters yet, but they had come without a word.
When Gu Yiran returns, he didn’t even know how to begin to explain.
With the highest-ranking official holding the most power, he didn’t know how to refuse.
“Right, didn’t you just mention Gu Yiran was going to visit a colleague’s home? Perfect, let our Li Bo drive her there.”
“Just now I heard she’s going with a colleague, and they are driving there together.”
“Oh, she’s riding in a colleague’s car.”
Li Xingqing became a bit restless, “Is it a male colleague or a female colleague?”
“That’s hard to say, there are many men and women in their office. I can’t say for sure whom she’s accompanying.”
Gu Yiran, being an extroverted person, is reportedly close with several male colleagues, so at this point, Gu Jingshan could only tell the truth.
Ring Ring Ring—
Just then, Gu Jingshan’s cell phone rang; it was Gu Yiran calling.
“Uncle, I’m almost at the front door. I’m running a little late; could you bring the things downstairs, hehe…”
“Sure, I’m coming down now.”
“Hehe, thank you, uncle. When I come back, I’ll get a bottle of wine from my dad to make it up to you.”
“You little rascal,” Gu Jingshan replied with a laugh, “Wait for me downstairs.”
After hanging up the phone, the attention of the whole family turned to Gu Jingshan.
“What happened, is Gu Yiran back?”
“He said he’s in a hurry, asking me to bring the stuff down.”
“Then let’s go now, I heard he’s going to see their leader, we can’t delay this.”
“That’s perfect, we should leave too, and take a look at Gu Yiran on the way.”
“Sit for a while longer, stay for lunch.”
Gu Jingshan politely said.
“I have other things this afternoon, let’s catch up another day when Gu Yiran is back.”
“That’s alright, since you are busy, I won’t keep you.”
“We’re all family here, no need for such formalities.”
After a quick tidy up, Gu Jingshan, carrying things, headed downstairs with both families.
Finding that Gu Yiran had not yet arrived, they started chatting leisurely downstairs.
“Old Gu, take a look at our car here; it should still be decent, right? After our trip, it shouldn’t tarnish our reputation, right?” Li Xingqing pointed at his BMW 5 Series and said.
“This car cost over 600,000, driving such a nice car definitely won’t tarnish your reputation.” Gu Jingshan said with a smile.
Their family owned a car too, but it was just a Mustang worth over 100,000, which couldn’t compare with the BMW 5 Series.
Li Xingqing, feeling a bit proud, believed that buying this car was a very right decision, at least it brought a lot of face.
With the Li family’s current conditions, thinking of becoming relatives through marriage was more than sufficient.
Just then, they suddenly heard the roaring sound.
Following the source of the sound, they saw a black sports car slowly driving towards them.
“What kind of car is that, must be expensive, right?” Li Xingqing said in surprise.
“Dad, that’s a Bugatti, but I’m not sure about the model, but definitely expensive, probably several tens of millions.” Li Bo enviously said.
“Actually costs tens of millions!”
The Li family, including Gu Jingshan, were astonished.
Although Zhong Hai is the wealthiest city in the country, where they lived was just an ordinary community, and most residents here were ordinary people.
It was rare enough to even see a BMW or an Audi driving by, let alone seeing a super sports car today, and such a costly one at that.
It was truly unprecedented.
“Those who can drive such cars, probably second-generation rich, as ordinary folks probably can’t even afford the gas,” Li Xingqing said.
As both families watched, they were surprised to see the black sports car unexpectedly stop in front of them.
Initially, Gu Yiran hadn’t planned to get out, but seeing his uncle and friends made him feel it’d be impolite not to, so he opened the car door and got out.
Seeing Gu Yiran come out of the car, everyone was greatly surprised.
“Gu Yiran, this is Vice-Principal Li from our school,” Gu Jingshan introduced.
“Hello, Uncle Lee,” Gu Yiran nodded, greeted him, and said nothing more.
LI Xingqing felt a bit awkward as he nodded, his gaze lingering on Lin Yi.
Wondering who the driver was.
“Uncle, the stuff? I’m in a hurry, I have to go now.”
“It’s right here.”
Gu Jingshan handed Gu Yiran a box of Old Ginseng.
“Uncle, I’ll leave first, and be back soon.”
Gu Yiran, in a rush, took the stuff and turned to leave.
“Hey, hey, hey, wait a moment.”
Gu Jingran pulled on Gu Yiran, and asked quietly:
“Who is the driver?”
“A colleague of mine,” Gu Yiran answered matter-of-factly.
“Your colleague?” Gu Jingshan obviously didn’t believe it, “This car must be quite expensive.”
“It’s like 1.2 billion, definitely not cheap.”
