Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Si Qing's expression changed slightly, and she glanced at the two of them somewhat unnaturally.
She then turned her head to hide her reaction and coughed softly.
She hadn't expected at all that Si Nian and Wang Jian had actually met before.
Si Qing was a bit flustered now; she often pulled these prank role-plays in the past and had never been caught.
To keep her disguise from showing any flaws, Si Qing immediately imitated Si Nian's appearance and tone.
Putting on a shy front, she waved her hand and said, "It's fine, it's fine. It's normal not to remember after only meeting once. Didn't I fail to recognize you too? Haha."
Actually, Jiang Cheng could still distinguish some differences between the personalities of Si Nian and Si Qing.
From their previous interactions, Si Nian's personality was more reserved and quiet.
However, from these two encounters with Si Qing, she clearly belonged to the more lively and cheerful type.
After all, if someone were truly quiet and shy, how could they repeatedly pretend to be someone else in front of him?
Seeing that Si Qing looked a bit flustered, Jiang Cheng remained composed and quickly changed the subject as if nothing had happened. "Why did you change cars so quickly?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng ask this, Wang Jian felt a bit more relaxed, secretly relieved that Jiang Cheng didn't hold a grudge against him. He hurriedly replied, "How is it, Brother Cheng? This car is eighty percent new and it's the top-spec version. It only cost eight hundred thousand."
Jiang Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly upon hearing this.
The top-spec porsche 911 he bought for Qiao Yinyin before had cost over 3.8 million.
Yet the top-spec version Wang Jian bought only cost eight hundred thousand?
The depreciation rate of second-hand supercars was truly staggering.
This price could hardly even buy a basic entry-level porsche 911.
Although many people naturally think of the porsche 911 whenever cheap supercars are mentioned...
After all, the entry-level porsche 911 is claimed to be around five hundred thousand, but that's just the base price.
Once some options are added, even an entry-level car can easily break the million-dollar mark.
However, the price difference between new and second-hand cars was even greater.
Even if it's this year's new car with very few miles, the price has to be heavily discounted if one wants to sell it second-hand.
Taking Qiao Yinyin's car as an example, the top-spec model she originally spent 3.8 million on would sell for at most two million plus after being driven for a year.
This price gap was like a sharp blade, cutting the car's price directly in half!
Such a huge price difference led many people to choose second-hand when facing luxury supercars.
After all, the price drop was too significant to resist.
"At this price, the car isn't that old. After all, supercars usually sell at a massive discount."
Wang Jian had already gotten out of the car. While stroking his beloved vehicle, he nodded and turned to Jiang Cheng, saying, "Yeah, Brother Cheng, you're really an expert. I was just lucky to come across this great deal. The on-the-road price was originally over three million, it's only got ten thousand kilometers on it, and it's a five-year-old car. Everything is still quite new, and it hasn't been repaired."
It was clear that Wang Jian truly liked this car.
Jiang Cheng didn't have a disdain for second-hand cars either.
Although most second-hand items had some minor issues, there were always cases of snagging a good deal.
"It is indeed not bad."
Wang Jian chuckled. "Thanks, Brother Cheng. I only decided to switch after seeing your ferrari laferrari last time. Mainly because yours is just too cool. I even sold my mercedes-benz with a heavy heart."
Seeing Wang Jian's humble attitude toward Jiang Cheng, Si Qing couldn't help but feel surprised.
She knew both Wang Jian and Jiang Cheng were wealthy, given the cars they had.
She had also seen the milk tea shop Jiang Cheng opened last time.
Simple Tea had recently become the hottest milk tea shop in their school.
It was packed every day; one could say Jiang Cheng was making a fortune.
And according to Si Nian, Jiang Cheng also drove a lamborghini reventón.
Although she didn't know much about these supercars, she gathered from Wang Jian that Jiang Cheng also had a ferrari laferrari.
"That mercedes-benz of yours would sell for at most three hundred thousand plus. Your savings are quite impressive."
To be honest, being able to pull out eight hundred thousand to buy a car in college meant one's family background was indeed quite good.
After Jiang Cheng finished speaking, he saw Wang Jian awkwardly rub the back of his head. "Brother Cheng, I think you might have misunderstood. My monthly allowance is only ten thousand yuan; I can't save much at all..."
"That's true; it really is hard to manage with that little money."
As soon as Jiang Cheng finished, Si Qing felt a wave of 'flexing' hit her in the face.
For a novice like her, Jiang Cheng's habit of showing off in front of others was a bit hard to get used to.
Regarding the point that one couldn't save money on a ten-thousand-yuan monthly allowance, Si Qing expressed her lack of understanding.
After all, although her own allowance was fifteen hundred, as long as she bought fewer cosmetics and clothes and ate normally at the canteen, she could still save a few hundred yuan every month.
Though she knew Wang Jian and Jiang Cheng were both wealthy, their conversation sounded a bit like flexing to someone from a normal family.
Thinking this, Si Qing took out her phone and started searching secretly.
Si Qing typed "How much does a ferrari laferrari cost" into the search engine's input box. After pressing Enter, she stared intently at the screen, waiting for the results.
Soon, the moment the search results appeared, she felt her whole body freeze, as if time had stopped.
Her eyes widened as she looked at the numbers on the screen in disbelief, a wave of unspeakable shock surging in her heart.
Looking at this number, Si Qing felt that her inner thoughts might have indeed been a bit too loud just now.
A ten-thousand-yuan allowance might truly be tight for Tycoons like them.
I'm sorry, she admitted her own horizons were too shallow.
Jiang Cheng then added, "So, you actually sold the mercedes-benz and then got five hundred thousand in sponsorship from your family to switch to this porsche 911??"
"Haha, you could say that..."
While Jiang Cheng and Wang Jian were chatting, Si Qing quickly opened WeChat and muted the sound. She then snapped a photo of Jiang Cheng's back and sent it to Si Nian.
Si Qing: "Guess who I ran into??"
Si Nian replied almost instantly: "Is it that Tycoon from last time?? He hasn't proactively contacted me even once since then??"
After reading it, Si Qing couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You've really grown up; your skin has gotten thicker, and you've started lying to me. I just blocked a hug for you just now?? And you still say the two of you aren't in contact??"
Si Nian: "Don't do anything reckless?? How did you end up hugging??"
Si Qing: "I wanted to ask you that??"
Si Nian: "Asking me?? I want to ask you."
