Although Jiang Cheng brought a different Girl every time, since he brought her along, he still had to show her some respect even if she wasn't his official girlfriend.
Wang Yuyan understood this as well.
Having worked in Shanghai for so many years, she had heard more or less about Qin Fen.
Jiang Cheng said to Wang Yuyan, "He's my brother; you can just call him Brother Qin."
"Let's stop the formalities and head over; there are too many people here."
Qin Fen originally wanted to put his arm around Jiang Cheng's shoulders, but he realized with frustration that Jiang Cheng was much taller than him, making the gesture impossible.
Left with no choice, he could only curse inwardly, "Damn it, why is everyone a giant?"
Along the way, there was an endless stream of famous luxury supercars, the most eye-catching of which was Qin Fen's yellow ferrari laferrari with a custom wrap.
Behind it, Jiang Cheng also saw Wang Congcong's porsche 918.
The other supercars were also well-known brands like Lamborghini and mclaren.
However, when a black-and-cyan bugatti Veyron appeared in Jiang Cheng's line of sight, he couldn't help but stop in his tracks.
The entire car radiated a mechanical beauty that couldn't be ignored, and the high-tilted rear wing added a unique charm.
Jiang Cheng pointed at the car and asked, "Whose car is this?"
Qin Fen took a look and immediately replied, "Jiang Xin's."
Seeing the look of unfamiliarity on Jiang Cheng's face regarding the name, Qin Fen reminded him, "You've met him. His family is in the rare earth business. We went to Sister Xin's gallery to buy watches together back then; he bought an A. Lange & Söhne watch that day."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng finally remembered that slightly chubby, blurry figure from his memory.
"I remember now. He's a member of this club too? This is the first time I've seen a bugatti Veyron. There are only a few dozen of them limited worldwide; I didn't expect to see one here," Jiang Cheng said with a face full of surprise.
Qin Fen nodded, a hint of envy showing in his eyes. "I also had my eye on this car when it was at the Kyoto Auto Show, but he bought it first. It was only 30 million when he got it, but it's worth much more now. This car has been stealing the spotlight on the streets of Xintiandi for the past two years."
Looking at so many cool supercars, Jiang Cheng, who originally didn't have much desire for them, suddenly seemed to gain interest.
Cars were like watches; even if one didn't use them often, just imagining having a massive garage to collect these big toys seemed pretty good.
Looking at Jiang Cheng's expression, Qin Fen spoke up, "Tell me, are you tempted too? Every time I see it, I regret not buying it sooner."
Jiang Cheng nodded. "You follow this kind of stuff often. Next time there's a rare item like this, remember to notify me."
"Sure. I've been keeping an eye on the Lamborghini Veneno and bugatti lately. I'll let you know if there's any news."
After saying that, Qin Fen whispered to Jiang Cheng, "Jiang Xin is like me; he actually loves collecting supercars. He used to have 15 limited edition supercars in his collection, but he's been selling them off one after another recently. Like last year, he sold a pagani Zonda. I hesitated for a moment, and it ended up being bought by a Brit."
"Why has he been selling his cars? I noticed just now that his bugatti Veyron doesn't seem to have a license plate yet?"
Qin Fen leaned in closer to Jiang Cheng again and whispered, "His family was doing okay a few years ago, but in recent years, they've lost a lot of money gambling. They've been trying to find ways to fill the hole, so he's forced to sell. Their rare earth company's market value also dropped because of this; it's fallen below ten billion now. Since the start of this year, Jiang Xin has been much more low-profile. He wasn't even going to come today, but Huang Qing called and invited him. There was no choice; his car brings a lot of prestige."
Jiang Cheng understood immediately. No wonder he hadn't seen him again after that watch purchase.
It turned out his family was in trouble.
While talking, Qin Fen led Jiang Cheng into the lounge.
Seeing Jiang Cheng enter, several people immediately stood up.
To Jiang Cheng's surprise, Han Anning, with her rose-colored hair, was also sitting in the lounge.
Her unique hair color was indeed exceptionally eye-catching.
It allowed Jiang Cheng to spot her at first glance.
Today, she was wearing a white cropped tank top with a light-colored denim jacket over it, radiating youthful vitality.
She was sitting on a chair next to Qi Yuan, sipping a bottle of iced Coke through a straw.
Seeing Jiang Cheng enter, Han Anning's action of biting the straw clearly paused for a moment.
When she saw that Jiang Cheng had changed to another female companion, Han Anning's brow furrowed almost imperceptibly, and a hint of displeasure showed in her eyes.
From her movements and expression, Jiang Cheng could sense Han Anning's disdain for him.
However, he didn't care; this kind of thing was about mutual consent.
Although Han Anning's hands were very smooth and she should be very fluid at driving a car...
Since she minded so much, it meant she and he were simply from two different worlds.
Jiang Cheng didn't look at her at all and walked straight toward them with his arm around Wang Yuyan.
Qi Yuan immediately stood up and excitedly hugged Jiang Cheng. "Brother Cheng, long time no see! I missed you to death. The days without picking up Girls with you..."
Qi Yuan stopped halfway through his sentence and looked at Wang Yuyan. "Wait, slip of the tongue. The days without drinking with you have really felt like years!"
Looking at Qi Yuan's exaggerated manner, Jiang Cheng smiled helplessly. "Alright, stop being so dramatic."
Wang Congcong also walked over and nudged Qi Yuan. "I'm the one who's known you the longest, right? Why didn't I see you missing me just now?"
"Can you be the same as my Brother Cheng?"
After hearing Wang Congcong's words, Qi Yuan wasn't angry; instead, he replied with a smile, "Holy crap, so when you need something you call him 'brother,' and when you don't, I'm just a nobody, right?"
"Haha, you certainly know me well."
Seeing Wang Congcong and Qi Yuan bickering and teasing each other, some of the Second-generation rich kids sitting nearby couldn't help but take a few extra looks at Jiang Cheng.
Although not everyone knew Qi Yuan, there were few people who didn't recognize Wang Congcong.
The fact that he would deliberately belittle himself to elevate Jiang Cheng...
Showed how important Jiang Cheng was in his heart.
Those Second-generation rich kids who weren't familiar with Jiang Cheng all wanted to know who this sacred figure was, but since everyone was a person of status, no one took the initiative to go up and strike up a conversation with him.
Jiang Xin, who had met Jiang Cheng before, immediately stood up upon seeing the situation and walked toward him.
"Jiang Cheng, long time no see." Jiang Xin's voice carried a hint of surprise and emotion.
Looking at Jiang Xin's noticeably thinner body, Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment.
Last time he saw him, he was still a bit chubby, but now he had slimmed down.
His appearance was practically like a different person compared to before.
"I saw your bugatti Veyron just now; it's quite handsome."
Hearing this, Jiang Xin immediately waved his hand and said modestly, "I heard from Brother Qin that you drove a new laferrari over today. Yours cost much more than mine when ordered."
He had already witnessed Jiang Cheng's financial power when they bought watches last time, and he hadn't expected Jiang Cheng to change to a new car in such a short time.
Seeing Wang Congcong praising him so much, he dared not be arrogant, especially since his family's current situation was not very optimistic.
Today, he could still drive this bugatti Veyron out to maintain appearances and boast and flatter others in this group.
But only he himself knew.
Before long, he would have no choice but to part with this car.
If the family situation didn't improve...
Then he probably wouldn't be able to keep hanging out in this circle.
