Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Ferrari, Maybach, Lamborghini, Porsche, Hongqi... the old man has collected every famous car that can be named, and even some vintage cars produced during World War II, of which there are only a handful in the world, and he has collected them all.

Mr. Ruan's collection is renowned worldwide, easily ranking among the top three. He also has two other car collectors abroad who are his friends.

Ruan Yingzi's statement was not an exaggeration at all, and no one dared to refute her.

Ye Qingqing had never heard of this before, and she clicked her tongue in amazement, but still sighed, "Your grandfather is really just wasting his time. What's the use of collecting so many lumps of iron? They can't be eaten or worn, and they just take up space."

Ruan Yingzi shrugged at him. "Who knows? When we were young, my grandma would argue with him every few days about this. But every time we argued, my grandpa would buy a car. Later, my grandma got angry and started collecting things too. The two of them would compete to spend money, and neither of them cared about the other."

To this day, she still feels that the Ruan family was not ruined by her grandparents, those two spendthrifts, and it was all thanks to the good foundation laid by her great-grandfather's generation; otherwise, she would have starved to death!

Ye Qingqing asked curiously, "What does your grandma collect?"

"Jewelry, do you know who owns that famous South African Princess's Tear (fabricated)? It's my grandma. Back then, my grandpa was heartbroken to have to bid on that extravagant diamond."

That was the first time Ruan Yingzi had ever seen an old man who spent money like water being so frugal. However, that old man had one redeeming quality: he was never stingy with money. He often said something like—

"Money is worthless, might as well spend it."

However, the amount of money spent on that diamond auction was indeed too much. Even after twenty years, that sum of money is still astronomical, something Ruan Yingzi doesn't even dare to dream of.

But as the saying goes, money makes money. The richer you are, the easier it is to make money. Like her two old spendthrifts, they spend money like water, but make money like the rising tide.

For example, the old man has a collection of luxury cars, and many film crews rent cars from him. The rental fees are not small, and he also has to pay huge insurance premiums. This amount of money is more than enough to maintain the cars.

As for her grandmother's jewelry, not to mention the diamond alone, its price has increased several times over. If her grandmother were willing to sell it, she could make back her principal and interest.

However, the Ruan family's most profitable assets are real estate. The rent from just a few office buildings in Hong Kong brings in a large sum of money every year, not to mention other businesses, which are more than enough to cover the Ruan family's expenses.

Lu Mo said with a smile, "The Ruan family are well-known landlords in Hong Kong."

The Ruan family has kept a low profile in recent years, but their wealth and influence remain. They are a hidden tycoon, and no one dares to underestimate them.

Ye Qingqing was joking, "Then you'd be a landlady, a rich girl born with a silver spoon in her mouth."

Ruan Yingzi pouted, "Come on, my old man is extremely sexist and favors boys over girls. How could he possibly give his granddaughter any property? At most, he'll give her a few million as a dowry."

"You're not satisfied with a few million? Others can't earn that much in a lifetime!" Ye Qingqing said irritably.

"I don't care if you don't give me a single penny, I can earn my own money anyway." Ruan Yingzi said indifferently. She never thought about inheriting property from her family. She had hands and feet and she certainly wouldn't starve.

Moreover, her parents had already bought her an apartment and a shop, and they would never let her suffer.

This is also one of the advantages of having a mother who can earn money; she has a lot of confidence. Unlike her other cousins, who don't know how to earn money, they don't have the same carefree life as her and can only obediently listen to their father's arrangements to get married.

Xia Lin in the back seat was increasingly shocked as she listened. She never expected that the good-for-nothing's friend was actually the eldest daughter of the famous Ruan family in Hong Kong. She was a real heiress. How could she be friends with Ye Qingqing from an ordinary family?
