Chapter: 80
Just then, when Ye Chen drove out the BMW 760, he suddenly felt like he might have overdone it a bit.
"He wasn't worried about the money, mainly because this car was too expensive. How would he explain it to Shao Chuan?"
"Two hundred and sixty thousand yuan, couldn't it just fall from the sky?"
As he thought, an excellent idea suddenly popped up in his head.
Then, he drove to a roadside repair shop, spending twenty bucks, and had the old boss change the BMW 760 logo to a BMW 520 one.
The BMW 5 series and 7 series look very similar, with the main difference being inside. Generally, people can't tell them apart from the outside, mainly relying on the rear logo to distinguish.
520 is the lowest configuration within the 5 series, with average power, handling, and overall performance.
760 is the highest configuration within the 7 series, with extremely strong power, handling, and overall performance.
Ye Chen was driving this car with a 520 logo on it, thinking to himself that Shao Chuan wouldn't understand cars much and didn't know much about them. He should just tell her it's a BMW 520 and she would probably not recognize it."
The car dealer looked at him with a straight face, thinking to himself that this guy looks very honest, but didn't expect his eyes were so bad, intentionally changing the top-spec 760 into a 520, definitely pretending to be an innocent lamb. ...
After buying the car, Ye Chen thought about the lunch hour today being Wang Dao's hotel opening, and he had to prepare a gift.
As soon as he thought of Wang Dao, who was also his decent classmate during university days, he directly drove to a large-scale art supply store and spent 200,000 to buy an early painting by Qing dynasty painter Huang Shen.
Huang Shen is not too famous, so most people won't recognize his paintings.
He bought this ancient painting partly because he thought it was necessary to give Wang Dao a substantial gift, but another part of him didn't want others to know how much the painting was worth.
He thought that if someone asked about it, he could casually say it was just a few thousand bucks and get away with it.
After buying the painting, it was almost noon when Ye Chen gave his wife Shao Chuan a phone call, telling her that he would pick her up from Empire Group, as well as Dong Ruo Lin.
It wasn't until they met that Shao Charen realized Ye Chen had actually bought a BMW 5 series!
She stared at Ye Chen with her eyes wide open, shocked and asked: "Where did this car come from?"
"He said, 'I bought it for you!'"
"You bought it?" Shao Chuan was even more astonished: "Where did you get the money?"
"It's private funds, okay." Ye Chen said. "You've seen I've been living with your family for so long, and when we got married, I didn't spend a dime. These years I've been eating at your table, sleeping in your bed, using your things... saving up some private funds, what's strange about that?"
Shao Chuan said, "But why not just keep the money to yourself? Why buy such an expensive car? This one must cost around 400,000."
Ye Chen laughed. "You're my wife. My private funds aren't for you to use or anyone else to use? Are we going to give it to someone like a third party? Besides, you're the general manager now, and no one can say anything about your car, anyway."
Dong Ruo Lin also spoke up: "Initial, you really do need a car that's suitable for business. This car is perfect for you. Ye Chen has you in his heart; you should be happy!"
Shao Chuan nodded her head, very moved and said, "Ye Chen, thank you!" JrNovels.com
