C207 Elf and Buick I Understand Them Well

"Everyone, please get in," Lin Dong said with a smile, beckoning to Ma Chenchen and Tian Meihui who were standing nearby.

The chauffeur, clad in a suit, had courteously opened the sliding door, inviting them in with a flourish that lent the moment a sense of occasion.

The Elfa, a world-class luxury MPV, featured electric sliding doors that opened and closed automatically—a feature that certainly one-upped the GL8 Suen Haoyang had been driving.

Following Lin Dong's invitation, Ma Chenchen and Tian Meihui climbed aboard.

Inside, the custom starry sky ceiling, opulent diamond-stitched aviation seats, premium rhinoceros leather upholstery, solid wood flooring, and an array of luxurious lighting made it feel like a mobile palace.

The plush seats came with both heating and massage features, and at the touch of a button, extendable leg rests could be deployed, allowing passengers to recline in utmost comfort.

As Ma Chenchen settled into her seat, she was still somewhat bewildered.

"Hey, Lin Dong! Did you really order this ride?" she asked.

"Of course, why not?" Lin Dong replied with a grin, then gestured for Tian Meihui to get in as well.

Tian Meihui was unfazed.

She was aware of Lin Dong's financial standing—he was the kind of person who could afford a Pagani Huayra, after all. To him, an Elfa worth a few million was nothing extraordinary.

Tian Meihui was shrewder than Ma Chenchen. She had picked up on the driver's deferential behavior and Lin Dong's confident manner on the phone, and was almost certain this Elfa was his.

Who else, after all, could summon such a private luxury MPV on a whim?

To Tian Meihui, it would be more surprising if Lin Dong didn't travel in such style.

The Elfa's layout was akin to the GL8, with a pair of premium 'captain's chairs' in the second row and three additional seats in the third row, all notably more comfortable.

Lin Dong offered the middle seats to Ma Chenchen and Tian Meihui, then made his way to the third row to settle in.

The Elfa has a unique feature that sets it apart from the GL8: its second-row seats can adjust their angle and even face the third row.

This allows passengers to sit face-to-face, making it incredibly convenient for conversations about work or casual chats.

Once the driver saw that Lin Dong and the two women were settled in, he quickly jogged over to start driving the vehicle.

The electric sliding door closed automatically, and the car smoothly pulled away.

As a luxury nanny car, the suspension was exceptionally well-tuned, ensuring a ride so smooth that bumps were virtually imperceptible.

Tian Meihui swiftly discovered how to adjust her second-row seat, turning it around to face Lin Dong.

Ma Chenchen watched with interest and, after a brief inquiry, rotated her seat as well to sit directly across from Lin Dong.

The soft glow of the starry ceiling cast a gentle light on their faces, highlighting their natural grace and beauty in a way that was quite striking.

"Hey, do you think those who left with Suen Haoyang earlier will regret it when they see us heading to Haorui KTV in such a luxurious nanny car?" Tian Meihui asked with a playful grin.

"I bet they will. This car definitely looks more upscale than the GL8."

Ma Chenchen raised the leg rest of her seat and reclined in a relaxed pose, clearly enjoying herself.

"We should really thank Lin Dong for arranging such a fantastic car. Hey Lin Dong, how about I personally invite you out again tomorrow? You can call the Elfa to pick me up again, hehe!" Tian Meihui suggested with a wink.

Lin Dong quickly averted his gaze; Tian Meihui's fiery personality was almost too much, her eyes sparkling with intensity.

Ma Chenchen pouted, "Why should Tian Meihui get to make a private appointment? I want to join too. We're all friends here; you can't hog all the fun!"

Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment as she realized she had blurted out her inner thoughts.

Her words had an unintentional charm to them.

Tian Meihui, unfazed, responded with a carefree attitude, "Alright, we can share. There's no need for anyone to feel left out!"

Lin Dong felt a twinge of discomfort listening to them.

He gestured dismissively and said, "Hey, hey, I'm not a cake to be split between the two of you. What's this about half each? I haven't even had my say yet, okay?"

Tian Meihui batted her eyelashes and teased, "We're both beauties, you know. Aren't you thrilled that we're taking the initiative to ask you out?"

Ma Chenchen, less outgoing than her, shyly bit her lip and remained silent, yet her bright eyes were fixed on Lin Dong.

"Let's discuss this later, after you've seen the place," he deflected with a chuckle, avoiding a direct response.

Soon, they arrived at Haorui KTV.

The driver, an employee familiar with the area, knew all the shortcuts and drove the Elfa swiftly.

By contrast, the GL8 had to rely on navigation and proceeded at a slower pace.

Just as Suen Haoyang pulled into the parking lot, the Elfa arrived right behind him.

Suen Haoyang opened the car door, ushering everyone out.

Liu Wenming stretched and exclaimed, "That's the comfort of a luxury car worth 400,000 yuan—truly exhilarating!"

Tian Chao chimed in, "You might be comfortable, but the two girls and I were crammed in the back, nearly falling apart."

Liu Wenming, due to his size, couldn't fit in the back seat, so he claimed one of the spacious captain's chairs.

The other was offered to one of the girls.

Tian Chao and Zhou Hengyu, adhering to the principle of ladies first, both opted to give the girls the best seats.

Zhou Hengyu, reserved by nature, felt too awkward to squeeze in with the girls, so he took the front passenger seat.

The back seat paled in comparison to the luxurious middle captain's chair, and was also a bit short.

Tian Chao had looked forward to sitting with the girls, envisioning a pleasant ride, but in reality, he found himself in a cramped, bumpy, and uncomfortable spot.

For a burly man standing 1.8 meters tall, the back seat was exceedingly cramped.

He hit his head several times, and the girls even complained that he took up too much space, leaving him feeling quite frustrated.

He had initially thought the Buick GL8, with its price tag of over four hundred thousand, would offer a luxurious and comfortable seating experience. However, it turned out to be a disappointment.

Stepping out of the car, he immediately aired his grievances to Liu Wenming.

"I know, right? The car looks so long, yet the space inside is surprisingly cramped."

"Had I known, I would've just shared a Didi with Lin Dong. It would have been more comfortable at least."

The two girls also frowned in agreement.

Their complaints didn't sit well with Suen Haoyang. He was seething inside.

After all, he wasn't focused on pleasing the passengers; he was bringing these people along for a free spending spree, and yet they were grumbling!

But he couldn't lash out at them.

With a hint of irritation, he said, "Alright, everyone, my four-hundred-thousand-yuan car might not be top-notch, but it's certainly better than the Didi Lin Dong hailed. Maybe you just haven't found the right way to sit."

Tian Chao, missing the point, complained as he shifted uncomfortably, "With such limited space, there's no way to sit comfortably."

Damn!

Suen Haoyang's expression turned sour.

Just as he was about to lose his temper, a bright light shone directly at them.

Suen Haoyang and the others instinctively squinted, shielding their eyes with their arms to look ahead.

As the light faded, a sleek, luxurious car passed by, its unique silver Elfa emblem glistening in the light.

Catching sight of the emblem, Suen Haoyang couldn't help but exclaim, "That's an Elfa! Everyone, step back."

Liu Wenming asked, "What's the issue?"

Suen Haoyang shot him a sidelong glance and explained with annoyance, "That's a car that costs two million and requires an extra million on top to purchase. Next to it, my Buick GL8 is nothing but a little brother! I can't afford to pay for any damages if we accidentally scratch it. Don't move around and cause trouble; I won't take responsibility."

Liu Wenming responded in astonishment, "Wow, that's three million after the markup. Such an expensive car!"

"It must be incredibly luxurious!"

"If only I could sit down just once, I'd be content for life."

"Quit daydreaming and move aside already."

The three girls gasped in amazement, while Tian Chao and Zhou Hengyu nodded in approval.

Suen Haoyang remained silent, but his eyes brimmed with envy.

He too longed to take a seat, but he lacked the means.

Just then, the Elfa came to a halt. The automatic vacuum door swung open, revealing a dazzling starry sky ceiling, along with opulent seats, flooring, and entertainment systems.

It was the epitome of luxury, akin to a presidential suite on wheels.

Involuntarily, Suen Haoyang stepped back with the group, sensing the presence of someone important disembarking from the vehicle. Anyone who could afford such a three-million-dollar luxury nanny car had to be incredibly wealthy, and they didn't want to cause any offense.

As all eyes were fixed on the scene, Lin Dong emerged from the car, accompanied by Ma Chenchen and Tian Meihui.
