180: Chapter 180 The Young Master of Shanghai Driving a Big Bull

Seeing that she had steered the conversation toward this topic, Zhao Xiaoshuai realized that she intended to make friends with him.

"How would I dare to tease Young Master Jie? It's all fate; it was just a little joke between friends."

"We are indeed fated to meet, being able to encounter each other in such an obscure little game amidst the vast sea of people."

"You are a few years older than me. If you don't mind, I'll call you Brother Zhao, and you can just call me Huiqiong."

"My younger brother has learned quite a lot from you, and I should be thanking you."

Although he didn't know what he had taught that Young Master Jie, Zhao Xiaoshuai accepted it as a polite pleasantry.

"Actually, the personal matter I wanted to discuss with you is precisely this."

"I also only found out a short while ago, after attending a gaming guild gathering, that the person who had been constantly opposing me was actually your younger brother."

"I finally understood why someone like you would play such a small game and even build a guild."

Mentioning her brother, Xing Huiqiong smiled warmly, "It was just to accompany that good-for-nothing in his foolishness."

"However, I've always been curious about one thing. Since Brother Zhao didn't know the identities of us siblings beforehand, how did you guess that it was me? My photos on social media never showed my face."

"That was quite a coincidence. I happen to know Ling Rui, and I saw her like your post."

"I never would have guessed it was like that. Hahaha."

Just as Zhao Xiaoshuai and Xing Huiqiong were chatting happily, not far from the shop, a cool Lamborghini was parked on the side of the road, attracting many young people to watch and take photos from afar.

Glancing at the passersby, Huo Shaoqi in the car gave a disdainful smile and said quite smugly to one of his trusted bodyguards accompanying him:

"My beloved car was delayed for a few days during transport, otherwise, I might have been able to ask Huiqiong out more easily."

"But this lousy place isn't suitable for driving my car, and the weather is terrible for a joyride. It's really boring. University starts in a few days, so I'll see if I can pick up a few college girls to have some fun."

"Young Master has a good eye. In this remote place, aside from being a bit cold, there are still quite a few pretty girls."

The two leered for a while before Huo Shaoqi asked about the real business:

"Who is the person she is meeting? Have you found out his background?"

"Reporting to Young Master, we've found out a bit. The person she is meeting is a male. He was recently featured in the Chuncheng Evening News, rumored to have generously donated 70 million to establish a charity fund. His ride is a maybach Exelero..."

"He has some strength, I suppose. In this small place, he could count as a figure of some importance, but unfortunately, he ran into me."

"That's true. Young Master's car cost over nine million on the road, which could buy two of his. And that's just the tip of the iceberg in Young Master's garage."

Listening to the flattery with a chuckle, Huo Shaoqi composed his expression: "However, his roots haven't been dug up yet. We haven't found out what specific industries he owns or which family he belongs to."

"Young Master, time is limited, so we've done our best to find this much. I will give the order now to throw more money at it; we will definitely be able to dig up his background."

"Hmm, get this done first. I, Huo Shaoqi, do not fight battles for which I am unprepared."

"Yes, Young Master."

The meal went very well, and both Zhao Xiaoshuai and Xing Huiqiong enjoyed the conversation.

Xing Huiqiong's knowledge was astonishing; she paid attention to every aspect of society, and Zhao Xiaoshuai was often the one listening.

Fortunately, Xing Huiqiong just assumed he wasn't interested, so she didn't talk about it too much.

This pleasant chat added a full... 3 points of favorability. The road to winning her over was still very difficult.

The shop had many wealthy customers, but the panamera and maybach parked in front were still very eye-catching.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but Xing Huiqiong, who arrived a step late, happened to park her car right next to Zhao Xiaoshuai's maybach.

Zhao Xiaoshuai said with a smile, "Our cars are black and white; they look quite a good match."

Now, the relationship between the two was at least much closer on the surface, and this level of small joke could be made freely.

Xing Huiqiong smiled and was about to say goodbye when a Lamborghini drove up nearby and blocked the way for both cars.

The window rolled down, revealing Huo Shaoqi's reasonably handsome face, "Huiqiong, my father invites you to come over to our house for a visit."

Since it was an invitation from Huo Zhengdong, Xing Huiqiong couldn't refuse and had to call her assistant to cancel a few more meetings.

She turned to say goodbye to Zhao Xiaoshuai, "Then I'll go and get busy. If there's a chance another day, I'll call my brother to get together. I believe it will be very interesting."

Zhao Xiaoshuai nodded in acknowledgement. His gaze swept over the young man, but he was met with a provocative look from him.

It had been a long time since anyone had taken the initiative to provoke him. He raised an eyebrow and walked toward the man with great interest.

Huo Shaoqi didn't know what this person wanted to do, but he had a very capable bodyguard next to him, so naturally, he wouldn't show weakness. He continued to look at him with an arrogant expression.

"Nice car. How much?"

"Over nine million, I suppose. You can't drive it in the city; it's just a big toy."

[Ding! Unlocked Stranger Codex: Huo Shaoqi (Character Rating 7.93)]

[Wealth: 8]

[Family Background: 9]

[Congratulations, Host, you have luckily obtained a multiplier silver card (Permanent)]

This person's personal ability was not as good as Xing Tianjie's, but he scored much higher in personal wealth and family background, so his final rating was significantly higher than Xing Tianjie's.

Having achieved his goal, Zhao Xiaoshuai didn't waste any more time and turned to leave.

Huo Shaoqi was confused. He thought this guy was going to throw out some harsh words, but he just asked about his car. Could he be a paper tiger?

No longer paying attention to Zhao Xiaoshuai, he saw that Xing Huiqiong had already gotten into her car, so he moved out of the way, waited on the side of the road for a moment, and left with the white panamera.

Back in the car, Zhao Xiaoshuai didn't leave immediately.

He first made a call to Tao Mengjie.

Tao Mengjie was the wife of his high school classmate, the second-generation shop owner Yang Yang, and was also a sales manager at a Mercedes 4S dealership.

"What a rare guest. How does Boss Zhao have time to call me? Could it be that you want to buy a batch of Mercedes?"

"Haha, that's not impossible. I recently bought a company, so I could equip the executives with a few cars to stimulate their motivation."

Tao Mengjie's tone became noticeably more enthusiastic, "Then I'll take that seriously. I'll recommend a few suitable models to you another day. By the way, how is the blind date with my distant cousin going?"

"We are trying to date, but she is quite busy. It's very hard to get her out."

"I'll go talk to my aunt about this and have her talk to my cousin. While work is important, one can't neglect their personal life."

"Let's not talk about that. I called you today to ask, do you have a way to get a porsche 918?"

"This... the number of people in the country who have this car can be counted on one hand. Unless they have the intention to sell, it's very hard to get. However, they all treat it as a collection piece, so the possibility of selling is very small. I estimate that going through overseas channels might be easier."

"Alright, then I'll ask someone else. It's nothing; I'm just buying it to play around with. See you later."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Xiaoshuai thought about his current connections.

Although he had no interest in supercars, compared to these big toys that couldn't even be driven in the city, he would rather buy a Rolls-Royce Phantom.

However, since this Huo Shaoqi had provoked him first, if he didn't suppress him in the area where he was so smug, where would his face as a god-tier tycoon be?

He picked up the phone again to ask Old Xiong, the former tycoon.
