Chapter 175 What qualifies as eye-catching?



After discussing this matter, the first thing Yang Yajing wanted to do was change her car.

This used Santana has been driven since 1999 and is now practically an old car.

If she were to drive such an old car to the shareholders' meeting and appear in the parking lot of the Huaxia Group headquarters, I doubt anyone would take her seriously.

But she didn't want to drive a luxury car either. First, the paperwork was complicated, and it would take more than ten days to get the car. Second, those cars were really impractical given the constant roadworks and construction in Jincheng.

She personally prefers Jeeps or Land Rovers because they have more space. She's currently involved in charity work and sometimes goes to disaster areas, undeterred by difficult roads.

But the parking spaces in Jincheng are relatively small, will it be difficult to park?

"Boyfriend..." Yang Yajing said in a coquettish tone, "Why don't you go buy a car? You can drive from now on."

"What's wrong? Want to change your car?" Zhou Pengfei knew that her used car had been driven for many years and it was time to change it.

"Hmm! I want to buy a Jeep, it's convenient for work, but going to the supermarket is too conspicuous!"

"Hahahaha! You're afraid of showing off?" Zhou Pengfei laughed. "But the Jeep is good, and I don't need to worry about you getting into trouble in the disaster area."

"Right? Right?" Yang Yajing smiled. "Why don't you get a practical minivan? A Golf or a Passat, anything will do!"

"The Passat looks like a toad from behind, it's so unattractive!" Zhou Pengfei muttered.

"Hahaha! I didn't expect my boyfriend to be a looks-obsessed person!" Yang Yajing laughed again.

"Sigh! What can I do! Otherwise, why would I have fallen for you?" Zhou Pengfei stretched out his slender fingers and rubbed them against Yang Yajing's plump, collagen-filled face. "So beautiful!"

Yang Yajing originally wanted to pawn her old car at the dealership, but when they chatted online, Bian Xiaoming said that the car wouldn't fetch much money.

His idea was that he would take the car, have his dad fix it up and maintain it, and then hang it under the door of the courier company.

His dad is always busy; he often does things like hauling express packaging and labels himself. Having a small car to drive around in is much more comfortable than driving the electric scooter from the shop.

Actually, Bian Xiaoming wasn't short of money, but his father, like Yang Guohua back then, was just unwilling to spend money on him.

Bian Xiaoming lied to him, saying that Yang Yajing originally wanted to throw the car away, and asked him if he wanted to pick it up and fix it for his own use.

He was a car repair expert, and although the car was old, its performance was still quite good. It would be such a waste to throw it away. So he protected it like a treasure and wouldn't let Yang Yajing "throw it away".

As for license plates, they weren't as expensive or time-consuming as they are now. Besides, Zhou Pengfei had a few words with his connections in Jincheng, and two license plates were issued in just a few days.

Mrs. Xia soon heard from Xia Changlong that Yang Yajing was going to attend the shareholders' meeting.

Because Mrs. Xia will need to coordinate the welcome reception later, won't she?

Upon hearing that Yang Yajing was going to the board meeting to put on airs, to deflate the arrogance of those Xia family bastards, and to quell the opposition of those opportunists, Madam Xia became excited.

"Ya Jing! Let's go buy battle uniforms tomorrow!" Madam Xia immediately called Yang Ya Jing. "You have to make sure you look impressive, Sister Tao!"

Yang Yajing originally planned to make a high-profile entrance, but seeing how enthusiastic Mrs. Xia was, she agreed.

The two women went shopping, this time to a luxury store.

Prada, Jimmy Choo, Mrs. Xia swiped her card without batting an eye.

"Let's go! Let's check out Chanel?" After paying, Mrs. Xia still hadn't bought enough, even with bags full of purchases.

"Sister Tao! One set is enough! Don't waste money!" Yang Yajing was both amused and exasperated by Madam Xia's shopping spree.

“Enough? One set is not enough. You need at least two or three sets to change into!” Madam Xia shook her head.

"If I need to attend another meeting in the future, I can just buy more?"

"Are you stupid, girl?" Madam Xia tapped Yang Yajing's forehead. "Your sister Tao is spending money today, why don't you take advantage of it? You're so shrewd!"

"Am I not saving you money?"

"Girl, have some sympathy for me! I have money to burn!" Madam Xia haughtily bent her arm around Yang Yajing's, making her take her hand. "Can't you just give me a reason to spend the money?"

"Uh..." Yang Yajing gave in.

Not only did Mrs. Xia want to buy clothes and shoes, but she also wanted to buy jewelry.

They're saying Yang Yajing's neck is bare, but it's almost spring, and having nothing under her V-neck is too conspicuous.

"Isn't it wearing gold and silver that's eye-catching?" Yang Yajing was a little confused.

"Ya Jing! You need to recognize your status!" Madam Xia shook her head. "Ordinary people wear gold and silver to attract attention, but you are the second largest shareholder of the Huaxia Consortium. If you wear this outfit with a bare neck, people will wonder if you rented it."

"These clothes can be rented?" Yang Yajing asked in surprise.

"These days, what can't you rent to put on a show? You can rent a stretch Lincoln for a wedding, you can rent suits for a banquet, and of course you can rent outfits for business negotiations!"

"Uh...I've learned something new!" Yang Yajing chuckled foolishly.

"Little girl, it's because you don't care about people's appearance that you don't pay attention to these things. Most people judge others by their looks, or rather, by their wealth! Especially those rich people who have no taste and love to show off!"

"Actually, you can do it even if you don't have money!" Yang Yajing thought of her experiences with receptionists in both her lives. "The dogs that guard the doors of the rich bite the hardest!"

"What's wrong? Did someone bully you?" Madam Xia heard the disdain in Yang Yajing's words.

"It's alright, I've returned all the toasts!" Yang Yajing said proudly.

"That's right! We can't let ourselves suffer for nothing!" Madam Xia is very protective of her own; whatever she likes is good and she has to protect it.
