Chapter 142: Don't Force Your Way Into Circles You Can't Enter

Ye Zhuzhu leaned against the sofa, holding a wine cup and taking a small sip.

"Alright, if you're not eating, then forget it."

"But there's one thing you must agree to."

Qin Ze was stunned:

"What is it?"

Ye Zhuzhu set down her wine cup and stood up.

She walked to Qin Ze, crossing her arms over her chest:

"You can drive a sports car and take some young girl running all over the city."

"So why can't you take me out for a spin?"

Hearing this, Qin Ze laughed.

"And you say you're not jealous?"

"Let's go, right now!"

Ye Zhuzhu pouted:

"Who's jealous?"

"I just want to experience what it feels like to sit in a supercar too!"

As he spoke, Qin Ze stood up directly and made a "please" gesture:

"President Ye, after you."

Ye Zhuzhu looked at his carefree demeanor and couldn't help but laugh.

She picked up her bag and followed Qin Ze out of the office.

The two took the elevator down and arrived at the hotel entrance.

When Ye Zhuzhu saw the Bugatti parked at the entrance, she was completely stunned.

The silver-gray body shimmered with a cold luster under the streetlights.

Its streamlined body and low-slung stance.

Every detail exuded the aura of a top-tier supercar.

"This car looks even better than in the video!"

Standing beside the car, Ye Zhuzhu's tone carried shock.

Qin Ze took out his key and pressed the unlock button.

The car door slowly opened.

"How about it? Is it still worthy of President Ye's approval?"

Ye Zhuzhu walked around the car, carefully examining every detail.

Although she didn't understand cars, the aura of this one made it obvious it wasn't cheap.

"How much is this car?"

Qin Ze said casually:

"Not much, just over thirty million."

"Over thirty million?!"

Ye Zhuzhu gasped sharply.

She looked at Qin Ze, her eyes filled with complex emotions:

"You really are willing to spend."

Qin Ze smiled:

"Isn't making money meant for spending?"

"Get in, let me give you a taste."

Ye Zhuzhu hesitated for a moment before finally sitting in the passenger seat.

Qin Ze got into the driver's seat and closed the door.

He pressed the start button, and the engine instantly erupted with a deep, powerful roar.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Ye Zhuzhu felt the vibration of the car body, her heart slightly nervous.

Qin Ze shifted gears and lightly pressed the accelerator.

The Bugatti slowly pulled out of the hotel entrance and merged into the main road.

The speed wasn't fast, but the low growl of the engine still attracted the attention of many passersby.

"This rate of turning heads is indeed high."

Leaning back in her seat, Ye Zhuzhu felt the night breeze blowing across her cheeks.

Qin Ze smiled:

"Of course, what you pay over thirty million for is exactly this rate of turning heads."

Ye Zhuzhu fell silent for a few seconds.

Then she turned her head and looked at Qin Ze:

"Qin Ze, I have a question for you."

"Go ahead."

"In my impression, those who drive supercars worth tens of millions are usually Second Generation rich kids."

"As a First-Generation Entrepreneur, don't you understand the importance of capital accumulation?"

As she spoke, Ye Zhuzhu took out her Mobile Phone, found a video, and showed it to Qin Ze:

"Have you come across this video before?"

Qin Ze took a glance.

In the video, a delivery rider in uniform stood beside a brand-new Audi A6, beaming with a full smile.

The title read: "Delivery Rider Saves for Five Years, Buys an Audi A6 Outright!"

Ye Zhuzhu said:

"Look, this delivery rider saved painstakingly for several years just to buy an Audi."

"For an ordinary person, an Audi might represent their entire dream."

"You have over thirty million; if you invested that sum into business, have you considered how much value it could generate?"

Hearing this, Qin Ze laughed.

He understood.

Ye Zhuzhu was advising him not to spend money on such luxuries.

He should put the money into business to build capital.

"President Ye, I understand your point."

Qin Ze slowed the car:

"You think I bought this car purely for enjoyment, right?"

Ye Zhuzhu said nothing, but her expression said it all.

Qin Ze continued:

"Actually, my primary purpose in buying this car is to integrate into Jiangcheng's Second-Generation Circle as quickly as possible."

Hearing this, Ye Zhuzhu's brows furrowed slightly.

She looked at Qin Ze, a trace of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

She had originally thought Qin Ze was a person with vision.

But now it seemed he was no different from others.

Forcing one's way into a circle that doesn't belong to oneself.

Put simply, it was still vanity at work.

"Qin Ze, let me speak plainly."

Ye Zhuzhu's tone grew much colder than before:

"Forcing your way into a circle that doesn't belong to you is useless."

"Those Second Generations have played together since childhood; they have their own little groups."

"As an outsider, even if you drive a car worth tens of millions, they won't treat you as one of their own."

"Put simply, a circle isn't something you can solve with just a car."

"Climbing the social ladder never yields good results!"

As Ye Zhuzhu spoke, she felt a bit of regret for coming to see Qin Ze today.

She regretted even more getting into his car.

She had originally thought Qin Ze was someone capable of great things.

But now it seemed he was no different from other nouveau riche.

Listening to Ye Zhuzhu's words, Qin Ze laughed.

He did not rush to refute her; instead, he pulled the car over to the roadside and stopped.

Then he turned his head and looked at Ye Zhuzhu:

"President Ye, you are right."

"Indeed, a circle cannot be entered merely by owning a car."

"But have you considered that I never intended to integrate into their circle in the first place?"

Ye Zhuzhu paused, stunned:

"Then why did you buy this car?"

The corner of Qin Ze's mouth curved upward slightly:

"I didn't do it to play along with them."

"My main goal is to drag all these Second Generations onto my boat."

Ye Zhuzhu frowned:

"What do you mean?"

Qin Ze leaned back in his seat, hands resting on the steering wheel:

"In a couple of days, I plan to establish an Investment Company."

"By then, all these Jiangcheng Second Generations will become people on the same boat as me."

Ye Zhuzhu froze.

She looked at Qin Ze, shock evident in her eyes.

"An Investment Company?"

"Yes."

Qin Ze nodded:

"By then, those young masters will get money from their families to invest in my Investment Company."

"With the financial backing of these young masters, doing business in Jiangcheng will be much smoother for me."

Hearing this, Ye Zhuzhu was completely dumbfounded.

She never expected that Qin Ze's purchase of a luxury car and his forceful entry into the Second-Generation Circle were for this purpose.

Ye Zhuzhu looked at Qin Ze, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

She had originally thought she had seen through Qin Ze completely.

But now she realized she had never understood this man from start to finish.

Looking at her somewhat regretful expression, Qin Ze laughed:

"What's wrong? Regret being fierce with me just now?"

Ye Zhuzhu took a deep breath to calm her emotions.

"Just now, I truly thought you bought a car just to forcibly integrate into these Second-Generation Circles."

"I didn't expect you to be plotting so far ahead."

Qin Ze smiled:

"When doing business, one must always have some schemes."
