Chapter 2309
"'Rellfa'?" Qian Hongyan asked with full confusion, "What is a 'Rellfa'?"
Ma Lan blurted out, "It's the Lexus bread van, you know, the most expensive bread van in the world! The domestic price is over 3 million!"
Qian Hongyan was stunned, "Buying a bread van for over 3 million?! If all this money were used to buy Wuling Hongguangs, they would be longer than a coal train if connected together. Spending so much money to buy that thing, is there something wrong with them?"
"You don't know anything." Ma Lan pouted disdainfully, "This is your typical poor person's thinking. You can't figure out why rich people spend hundreds of millions of US dollars to buy private jets, so you definitely can't figure out why they spend over 3 million to buy a bread van. The world of the rich is just eight words: don't seek the best, only seek the most expensive!"
After a pause, Ma Lan added, "Besides, what is a car worth 3 million to them? With their net worth of billions of US dollars in the bank, the daily interest is more than this amount!"
"Really amazing..." Qian Hongyan couldn't help but ask, "Sister Lan, how can you know such a rich friend? With a net worth of billions of US dollars, that's equivalent to tens of billions of RMB!"
Ma Lan said with a smile, "It's a friend I met in the United States. There are many overseas Chinese in the United States, so I met a few friends who are more compatible."
Qian Hongyan couldn't help but sigh, "Oh! You still have to go out to see the world. Sister Lan, you went to the United States and met such a rich person. Your vision and connections in the upper class have opened up all of a sudden!"
"That's right!" Ma Lan said proudly, "Otherwise, why do people say that people go to higher places and water flows to lower places? You really have to go out and see the world more in the future."
Qian Hongyan complimented, "Sister Lan is right! The gap between us is getting wider and wider because of you..."
As she spoke, Qian Hongyan changed the subject and asked hurriedly, "Oh, by the way, Sister Lan, when you come back, do you have time to take me to Chow Tai Fook to take a look? Didn't you promise me when you bought Bulgari that you would buy me a Chow Tai Fook to wear..."
Ma Lan smiled contemptuously. She knew that Qian Hongyan had to bring this up.
She even knew that Qian Hongyan sent her a video call for this purpose only.
So she said casually, "Oh, don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you."
For Ma Lan, as long as she left the United States and sold the Goddess of Dreams that Ye Chen gave her, it would be at least 300,000 to 400,000, which was more than enough to buy Qian Hongyan a Chow Tai Fook necklace.
Thinking of this, she suddenly realized that she didn't even need to wait until she returned to Jin Ling to sell it. She could completely sell it as soon as she arrived in Hong Kong.
Having made up her mind, she said to Qian Hongyan very generously, "How about this, Hongyan, you don't have to wait for me to return to Jin Ling to take you to see it. This time when I go to Hong Kong, I will just buy one at Chow Tai Fook in Hong Kong and bring it back for you."
When Qian Hongyan heard this, she was immediately excited and said, "Really?! That's great! Thank you so much, Sister Lan!"
Ma Lan hummed and said, "Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. I'll rest for a while, I'm boarding soon."
Qian Hongyan hung up the video after thanking her profusely. Ma Lan locked her phone and mocked to herself, "Qian Hongyan, oh Qian Hongyan, you've been thinking about a Chow Tai Fook for so long, you really have no ambition!"
Just as she was muttering, several American police officers of different skin colors, armed with live ammunition, suddenly rushed into the VIP lounge.
One of the Chinese-American female police officers looked around the lounge and immediately locked onto Ma Lan, then walked quickly to her and asked coldly, "You are Ma Lan, right?"
Ma Lan was a little surprised by the sudden police.
She looked at the female police officer in surprise and asked, "It's me, what's the matter?"
The female police officer continued to ask, "Let me verify your personal information. You are Ma Lan from Jin Ling, China, and you are taking Cathay Pacific flight CX845 from New York to Hong Kong this time, right?"
"Yes..." Ma Lan was even more confused and asked, "Is there a problem with my flight?"
The female police officer said coldly, "There is no problem with the flight, but there is a problem with your luggage! Please come with us to assist in the investigation."
Ma Lan said hurriedly, "What could be wrong with my luggage? Besides personal clothing, there are only some New York specialties in it. I didn't put anything like lithium batteries in it..."
The female police officer snorted coldly, "Don't make useless sophistry. There are other passengers here. In order not to affect others' boarding, please come with me voluntarily."
As she spoke, she took out handcuffs from her waist and warned, "Listen carefully to what I say. You have the right to remain silent. Otherwise, everything you say may be used as evidence to accuse you. You have the right to have a lawyer present when you are interrogated. If you cannot afford one, we will assign one for you. Do you understand these rights?"
Ma Lan panicked immediately and blurted out loudly, "What are you doing! I am a distinguished first-class passenger! Who gave you the guts to come here and arrest me? Besides, what law did I break?!"
The female police officer said coldly, "Ma Lan, as a Chinese-American, I kindly warn you, this is the United States! Here, don't try any form of resistance, otherwise, you will definitely be the one to suffer!"
Ma Lan said angrily, "Don't give me that crap. I, Ma Lan, have always acted upright and honestly! I'm not afraid of you police officers wherever I go. Let alone the United States, even if it's the United Nations, so what?! I wouldn't even frown!"
The female police officer had obviously lost patience. She took out her handcuffs and said sternly, "Ma Lan! I now require you to turn around and put your hands behind your back. You must not have any resistance or escape behavior, otherwise, my colleagues may use equipment on you, including but not limited to electric Tasers. You'd better cooperate obediently!"
Seeing that many people were watching, Ma Lan felt that her face as a distinguished first-class guest was lost in a mess.
Anger rushed to her head, making her roar with her hands on her hips, "I tell you, don't play these useless tricks on me! I spent so much money to buy a first-class ticket, not to suffer the bird's anger from you American police! I am about to board the plane and return to the country. If you are sensible, get out of here and don't delay my itinerary!"
Seeing that Ma Lan was stubborn, the female police officer shook her head helplessly and said to the two white male police officers beside her, "Take her away!"
The two police officers had heard Ma Lan shouting for a long time. Although they didn't know what she was saying, they could see that her attitude was very arrogant, and they had long been rubbing their hands and preparing to do it.
Now that they heard the female police officer say this, they knew she had given up on communication, so the two rushed forward immediately. One of them grabbed Ma Lan, and with a tackle, threw Ma Lan onto the wool carpet of the first-class lounge, causing Ma Lan to fall face-first.
Another police officer rushed up, grabbed Ma Lan's hair with one hand and pulled it back hard, causing Ma Lan to howl in pain, but he didn't care at all. His knee pressed on Ma Lan's back, pinning her firmly to the ground.
His other colleague immediately pushed Ma Lan's two hands behind her back hard and then handcuffed Ma Lan's hands tightly.
Ma Lan screamed in pain and shouted desperately, "Murder! American police are murdering! Come here, help!"
The white police officer who was pressing Ma Lan firmly with one knee blurted out angrily, "Hey! You shut the fuck up!"
Ma Lan was a college graduate after all, and she could hear that the white police officer was scolding her and telling her to shut up, which made her angry and ashamed!
She gritted her teeth and scolded, "I can endure you telling me to shut up if I grit my teeth, but you still dare to say 'fuck' to me?! Who do you think you are? You've rebelled! Listen to me! I'm your mother! How dare you! Keep your mouth clean, I tell you!"
