Chapter 7: Unexpected

"Mr. Su? Over here?"

Li Yan waved her slender arm hesitantly at the handsome young man not far away.

"Li Yan?"

Su Yunzhou looked at the mature beauty before him, who was even prettier in person than in her photos. He thought to himself, "Birds of a feather really do flock together."

Liu Yiyi's best friend was equally gorgeous and radiant.

She wore a form-fitting black business suit. The top two buttons of her white shirt seemed overwhelmed, barely containing her full cleavage. Below, a black pencil skirt accentuated her slender, straight legs clad in grey pantyhose. It made one inevitably think of Mr. Mo's masterpiece.

"Mr. Su, please follow me this way!"

Her voice was melodic and pleasant, like a gentle spring breeze that instantly won people over. Su Yunzhou's eyes held a smile as he watched her sway like a ripe peach ahead of him. At that moment, a system notification chimed in his mind.

[Mature woman successfully bound.]

[Name: Li Yan]

[Stats: 34, 168, 116, 93, 66, 95]

[Affinity: 8]

[Friendly Reminder: The bound target desires money and status, but she will not resort to selling her body or engaging in borderline suggestive behavior to obtain them. Her family of origin is an indelible, lifelong pain in her heart.]

This reminder made Su Yunzhou freeze for a second, his expression shifting slightly. He hadn't expected to stumble upon such a pleasant surprise just by coming to look at cars. Now he had another massive, "proper" money-making project.

However, for such an incredibly stunning woman to have severe psychological trauma stemming from her original family—this could be a breakthrough point. Furthermore, he was slightly surprised by Li Yan's upright attitude toward money. Despite the massive trauma inflicted by her family, she hadn't chosen to take shortcuts. Instead, she relied on her own two hands to earn a living. That was incredibly rare.

Seeing Su Yunzhou suddenly space out, Li Yan discreetly frowned and asked, "Mr. Su, is something wrong?"

Su Yunzhou pulled out his latest Mango smartphone, glanced at it, and thoughtfully replied, "It's nothing. I just received a bank notification."

Hearing this, Li Yan's eyes lit up. That single sentence contained a wealth of information. Smiling like a blooming flower, she asked, "Mr. Su, we have coffee, tea, and soda water here. What would you like to drink? I'll go get it for you!"

"Soda water, please. Thank you!"

Li Yan brought over a bottle of Elephant soda water. After asking for his preference, she thoughtfully cut two slices of lemon to add in.

"Thank you!" Su Yunzhou took it with a smile. "Since we were introduced by a mutual friend, there's no need to be so formal."

[Affinity +1]

A polite and refined man was indeed more likely to earn favor. Li Yan gave a slight nod and asked softly, "Mr. Su, do you have a specific car model in mind?"

Seeing him shake his head, she continued, "I can see that you're quite young, Mr. Su. How about I recommend a few models suitable for young people?"

"Sure!"

Su Yunzhou agreed and followed Li Yan as they toured the luxurious and grand showroom, which was divided into three sections: sedans, sports cars, and SUVs.

Li Yan's professional skills were as fully developed as her voluptuous figure. Her explanations were concise; with just a few words, she effortlessly detailed the pros and cons of each model. Whenever she noticed a change in Su Yunzhou's expression, she would emphasize and elaborate on that specific point.

This woman was highly charismatic when she worked. Su Yunzhou nodded from time to time, his encouraging gaze pushing her into an even better sales rhythm.

Li Yan had received her fair share of clients: the genuinely wealthy, the penniless pretenders putting up a front, the show-offs bringing a date just to flex, and the nouveau riche who had suddenly stumbled into money, like Su Yunzhou. These people all had different personalities, but they shared one common trait: they were incredibly arrogant. Even the seemingly polite clients, despite their courteous words, couldn't hide their deep-seated haughtiness. She disliked such people, but to make a living, she had no choice but to dance around their egos.

However, the Su Yunzhou standing before her was noticeably different. He listened earnestly, spoke gently, and put on no airs. This sense of being respected made her feel relaxed and at ease.

By the time they finished the tour, her Affinity had increased by another 2 points.

They returned to the reception room. Li Yan sat beside him, radiating a faint, perfectly balanced scent of perfume. Holding an iPad, her eyes rippled with a soft gaze. "Mr. Su, if you haven't seen a model you like, I have many unexhibited cars on my iPad. You can take a look here."

Su Yunzhou cast a quick glance forward before rapidly pulling his gaze back; the allure of her proud cleavage was simply too stunning. He didn't want to leave a creepy impression and lower her Affinity.

"I'd like to see the Panamera series."

"The Panamera?" Li Yan smiled brightly and praised. "You have a great eye!

"For the Panamera series, our center has the base model, the Executive extended version, the new Panamera 4 E-Hybrid..."

Su Yunzhou looked at the photo descriptions, pointed at one, and asked, "I really like this one. Could you explain it to me in detail?"

Li Yan replied, "We actually have a test-drive vehicle for this exact model. Why don't you come with me? I can take you to the car so you can experience it while we chat."

A moment later.

A low-key yet luxurious Panamera appeared before Su Yunzhou. Its sleek black exterior, domineering wheel hubs, and lavish interior all showcased its unique charm.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Li Yan enthusiastically explained, "This model is the Panamera Executive Platinum Edition. Its 0-to-100 acceleration is..."

Several minutes later.

Stepping out of the driver's seat, Su Yunzhou's eyes burned with intense interest. "How much is the on-road price for this one?"

Li Yan answered softly, "The on-road price is 1.28 million. If you want custom modifications or optional packages, we'll tailor it to your needs. Since you're Yiyi's friend, you're my friend too. I will absolutely apply for the maximum authorized discount for you."

After saying this, Li Yan nervously watched Su Yunzhou's expression. A customer's reaction at this stage was particularly crucial.

"Let's go with this one then!" Su Yunzhou said unhurriedly.

Li Yan stared in disbelief. "Mr... Mr. Su... Are you saying... you want to lock in this one?"

"Hm? Is there a problem?" Su Yunzhou asked with a slight smile.

[Affinity +11]

Li Yan's body trembled with excitement, causing her bountiful assets to jiggle along with it. Watching the display, Su Yunzhou couldn't help but gulp.

"Of course not! I've just never met a customer as straightforward and generous as you, Mr. Su."

This was the truth. Buying a luxury car worth over a million was no simple matter. Every single step was critical, making the service cycle exceptionally long. Some clients constantly strung the sales representatives along, dropping hints for this and that favor. Yet, the vast majority of them ended up not buying at all. These customers all had some degree of wealth and background, so the sales staff had no choice but to swallow their grievances in silence, constantly bowing and scraping just to try their luck.

As for a client like Su Yunzhou, who sealed the deal within mere hours—Li Yan had only ever seen this in the wish-fulfillment novels she liked to read. This was the first time she had encountered it in reality.

Holding the iPad, Li Yan's tone grew increasingly respectful. "Mr. Su, would you like to take a look at the optional configurations?"

"Sure!"

"Mr. Su, I recommend you go with these wheel hubs..."

As Li Yan continued her introduction, the total price on the iPad steadily climbed. Aside from the exterior color, Su Yunzhou basically deferred to her professional opinion for all other configurations. Li Yan's Affinity for him was also continuously rising.

By the time they finished customizing, the iPad displayed a Panamera that looked exactly like a Black Knight. The total price had soared to a staggering 1.58 million. And Li Yan's Affinity had increased by another 7 points.

[Li Yan's Affinity: 29 points]

Looking at her expectant gaze, Su Yunzhou said gently, "Then we'll go with what we discussed earlier—a thirty percent deposit now, and the remaining balance paid in full once the car arrives."

As his words fell, Li Yan's eyes lit up with excitement. A brilliant smile bloomed on her pretty face. She stood up, bowed, and said, "Please wait a moment, Mr. Su. I'll go speak to the store manager right away to request the absolute lowest price for you before drawing up the contract!"

After saying that, she briskly walked toward the door.

A moment later.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK! A knocking sound rang out from the door. Assuming it was Li Yan returning, Su Yunzhou called out, "Come in."

The next second.

A beautiful woman walked in. She had a gorgeous face, a smoking hot figure, and limpid eyes that resembled clear autumn pools. The innocent, naive look on her face contrasted sharply with her voluptuous curves, creating a unique and utterly mesmerizing aura.

Her voice was soft and sweet. "Hello, Mr. Su. My name is Liu Ru!

"Sister Li has a few things to take care of, so I'll be serving you from here on out!"
