Chapter 438 Listen to this, is this even human language?
"Wife," Ye Fan said sincerely, making no attempt to hide the amazement in his eyes, "you look absolutely stunning today."
Liu Ruyan walked up to him, deliberately twirled around, her skirt fluttering, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes:
"Oh? Didn't I look good in my previous outfit?" she asked, her tone carrying a girlish coquettishness.
"Hahaha!" Ye Fan laughed and pulled her into his arms. "So beautiful! My Ruyan, you look good in anything! You look especially beautiful today!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, a sweet atmosphere filling the air.
The ease, dependence, and occasional playfulness they share are so natural that you can't tell the age gap at all; they look just like a college couple deeply in love.
Hand in hand, they went out together, took the elevator directly to the underground parking garage, and walked towards the direction where Qin Kun was waiting.
Even under the slightly cold and harsh lighting of the garage, the splendor of the brocade still shone brightly.
......
The black Toyota Alphard minivan was parked quietly in the corner of the underground parking garage.
Ye Fan took Liu Ruyan's hand and opened the car door.
Inside the car, Fang Yu had been waiting for some time, seated on spacious and comfortable leather seats. The Qin brothers, Qin Kun and Qin Fei, were also there, and upon seeing Ye Fan, they immediately greeted him with beaming smiles.
"Old Ye! You've finally succeeded!"
Immediately, their gazes shifted to the radiant Liu Ruyan beside Ye Fan, and their faces instantly broke into even warmer smiles as they bowed in greeting.
"Hello, sister-in-law! Please have a seat!"
Qin Kun reacted the fastest, quickly getting up and moving to the back row to make room for Ye Fan in the spacious window seat, saying solicitously, "Sister-in-law, sit here, the view is great!"
Liu Ruyan smiled gracefully and nodded slightly in response, "Thank you."
She then gracefully sat down next to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan smiled and sat down in the seat Qin Kun had offered.
"Everyone's here, let's go." As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, the electric sliding door emitted a low hum and slowly closed, shutting out the noise from the outside world.
The car started smoothly and drove out of the underground parking garage.
As soon as they set off, Fang Yu, sitting in the passenger seat, eagerly turned around, his face beaming with the excitement typical of a car enthusiast, and said to Ye Fan in the back seat:
"Old Ye! Let me tell you, this auto show was absolutely worth the trip! The scale exceeded my expectations!"
Compared to the Qin brothers' lukewarm reaction to cars, Fang Yu, a "car fanatic" who grew up surrounded by top-tier supercars, was practically bursting with excitement.
Ye Fan raised an eyebrow, intrigued.
A while ago, he was annoyed by the months-long waiting period for custom-made luxury cars and mentioned to Fang Yu that he wanted to find an opportunity to "snag a bargain" at an auto show - after all, large auto shows are often a stage for car companies to showcase their latest masterpieces and even release concept cars in advance, and more importantly, there are often cars available for immediate delivery!
"Oh? How so? Is there anything special about it?"
Fang Yu immediately started talking, his speech quickening, his fingers unconsciously tapping the armrest of his chair: "I thought it was just a regular local exhibition in Jinling."
His eyes gleamed: "And guess what? It's like all the major automakers conspired together; they pulled off something big this time!"
"The venue has been chosen for the first time ever—Hall A of the International Expo Center! That's the main exhibition hall, capable of holding an entire aircraft carrier fleet model!"
He gestured with his hands, trying to describe the enormous space: "I've inquired, the exhibition area is conservatively estimated to be at least 500,000 square meters! What does that mean? It's as big as dozens of football fields!"
"The promotional campaign is even more frightening!" Fang Yu continued, "Top influencers on major platforms started building hype half a month in advance, and for today's opening, they reportedly invited several A-list celebrities to endorse it!"
He lowered his voice, a hint of disbelief in his tone: "I've received word that the CEOs of several top brands' Greater China regions, and even their global vice presidents, have personally flown here! This kind of presence is rarely seen at domestic auto shows in recent years!"
"Everyone is pulling out all the stops, bringing out their most anticipated 2015 models, and even near-production concept cars that aren't planned for release until next year!"
Fang Yu concluded with absolute certainty, "Every brand you can name, whether it's supercar luxury or top-tier luxury, they're all here! I've hardly ever seen anything like this in my entire life!"
Ye Fan nodded slightly, a hint of surprise and satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
An international expo center, 500,000 square meters, the CEO's personal visit, and a massive online campaign... the scale and grandeur of this project far exceeded expectations.
It seems we really made the right decision this time.
Liu Ruyan sat quietly beside Ye Fan, listening to Fang Yu's animated introduction, her face always bearing a gentle and dignified smile.
She wasn't particularly interested in these things, but her good manners allowed her to listen attentively. Occasionally, she would take a small sip of the mineral water beside her, and her elegant and composed demeanor contrasted subtly with the excited conversation of the men in the car, making her stand out even more.
Even a playboy like Fang Yu, who grew up surrounded by top-tier luxury cars, was so excited, which speaks volumes about the significance of this auto show.
Ye Fan's last trace of doubt dissipated, replaced by clear anticipation.
It seems that today, not only will I be able to drive away in the car I've been longing for, but I might also encounter some unexpected surprises.
He relaxed and leaned back in the large, comfortable seat, his gaze fixed on the street scenes rushing past the car window, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips.
Finally, I no longer have to endure the long wait.
As Ye Fan listened to Fang Yu's detailed and radiant description, a playful smile played on his lips. He turned to look at him and teased, "Oh? From what you're saying, Lao Fang, you're itching to get involved in this auto show too?"
He deliberately emphasized the word "also," his eyes gleaming with a mischievous glint. After all, the size of Fang Yu's garage was renowned throughout the industry.
Fang Yu leaned back in his spacious airline seat, shrugged upon hearing this, and gave a look that was somewhere between "taken for granted" and "eager for a piece of the action": "That depends on what level of auto show it is."
He spoke casually, as if discussing something perfectly ordinary: "What if it's one of those small-scale trade fairs?"
He waved his hand: "That's just something to look around and kill time. I can find almost any of those mass-produced items in my garage, and maybe even a few more with optional extras."
Before he finished speaking, apart from Ye Fan and Liu Ruyan who remained relatively calm, the Qin brothers, Qin Kun and Qin Fei, subconsciously exchanged a glance, their lips twitching slightly, their eyes filled with a silent sarcasm: "Listen to this, is this even human language?"
What does it mean to "basically find the same item in every garage"? This is practically the ultimate Versailles!
Fang Yu, however, was completely unaware, or rather, utterly indifferent. His attention was entirely occupied by his anticipation for this grand exhibition, and his eyes lit up again: "But a scale like today's, with the International Expo Center, the CEO's personal presence, and global promotion, is truly remarkable."
