Divorced and Determined: The CEO’s Ex-Wife Fights for Love

Chapter 106 I’ve Spent Half My Monthly Salary Here, and You Just Bought This Car?

At Jiangcheng, on the long Lin Road at night, the traffic surged, with cars and traffic lights intertwining like a giant dragon weaving through the city’s streets.

Dynamic lights refracted into colorful reflections, like flowing stars, giving the city a gentle and romantic atmosphere. Inside the car, the air conditioning was on, accompanied by a vanilla-scented fragrance system the little one loved. It was so comfortable, like a mobile home. The little one held a cartoon cup, sitting in the passenger seat and watching cartoons on a tablet.

Lu Qin felt that having a car was indeed very convenient and comfortable. In the congested section of the road, alternating between the accelerator and brake, he turned on smart driving, freeing his feet. The car drove itself, with smooth starts and stops, reacting quickly—better than an experienced driver.

At present, AUTO leads other manufacturers in smart driving technology, even surpassing TSL. This was no exaggeration. When the brand-new, latest top-spec black Wenjie M7 stopped by the roadside, passersby couldn’t help but glance back.

New energy vehicles had just entered the market, they could be seen but were not yet common. Its atmospheric appearance, cool lights, and sporty 21-inch large wheels made it a striking sight on the night market street, drawing people to stop and admire.

“Is this a domestic new energy car? It looks great! If I had money, I’d buy one too!”

“Wow, HW is amazing! This car is so eye-catching!”

“This car is fully equipped, even with air suspension and advanced tech. For the same price, a Mercedes doesn’t even have an electric seat adjustment, and the rearview mirror is manual! Damn!”

“Now everyone’s buying electric cars, but my dumb wife got an electric BMW—so stupid! This car would’ve been perfect!”

“The owner has great taste, anyone would be tempted by this car!”

The pedestrian street was too crowded, making it difficult to drive in. Lu Qin got out of the car, ready to set up his stall right there.

When the onlookers saw him get out of the car, they couldn’t help but exclaim, “This guy is really handsome!”

“A handsome man with a beautiful car—it’s a perfect match. He could be a spokesperson!”

“This guy is so good-looking, even at my peak, I’d have to step aside.”

When Lu Xiyao climbed out of the car, all eyes turned to her as well. The little one also amazed the crowd.

“She’s too adorable!”

“Damn! Handsome dad, cute daughter, and a dream car. What a life!”

The onlookers were filled with envy. If Shen Muyan were here, someone might’ve died of jealousy on the spot.

Lu Qin took out his phone, opened the group chat, and tagged everyone.

Messages rolled in immediately.

“Why can’t it get in? It always could before!”

“The narrow alley spot is ready. Other stalls moved 200 meters away—why change locations?”

“Is the tricycle out of power? Damn, hurry over!”

“Run, run! Let’s go quickly, I’m starving!”

Lu Qin opened the trunk, unloaded two folding tableboards, and set them up.

“Dad, let me help~!”

Lu Xiyao obediently stood beside him, eager to assist.

“Okay.”

Lu Qin smiled and placed a thermal lockbox on the ground. Father and daughter worked together to arrange the packed food boxes on the table. The onlookers finally realized what they were there for—they were setting up a stall!

Times had truly changed. People used to wear straw shoes and carry poles to set up stalls. Now, they drove flashy new cars to do it.

Was this a wealthy family taking their daughter out for a life experience, or did they make so much money from the stall that they bought the car?

However, judging by the young man’s skilled movements, it didn’t seem like he was just experiencing life—he was a pro.

Hiss—!

At this thought, the onlookers couldn’t help but take a deep breath. Was setting up stalls this profitable now? Enough to buy a car worth over 300,000 yuan!

But why bring the car here to set up a stall? Was it showing off?

The license plate wasn’t even on yet!

Before long, a group of customers arrived in a rush.

“Where is it? Where is it? I’m starving!”

“I only had noodles for lunch and skipped dinner. I’ve been waiting for this meal all day—almost had hypoglycemia!”

“My long-awaited fried noodles! I’m so excited, I wasn’t even this thrilled when my wife gave birth!”

The onlookers were startled. Where did these 40 or 50 people come from?

“There! I see Boss Lu, that handsome guy!”

“I see his adorable kid too. Let’s line up!”

“Watch your step! Someone stepped on my shoe!”

“Close your mouths when you run—your spit is flying everywhere!”

The food boxes were neatly arranged on the table, with a QR code in front. Lu Qin and Lu Xiyao sat calmly on two small stools, waiting for customers to come over.

“Dad, the customers are rushing over, they look like they’re about to eat someone~!”

“Your meat probably smells delicious.”

“No, my meat is sour—not tasty at all~!”

The father and daughter joked as the crowd of 40 or 50 people lined up, panting heavily.

The onlookers were stunned. A large group of people buying from this stall?

Some passersby watched with curiosity.

“Just wait, when they see that new car, how will they feel?”

“I’d feel so sour! My money might’ve gone toward that car!”

“The young man needs to keep a low profile. Driving a car worth over 300,000 yuan to set up a stall—isn’t that showing off?”

“Will there still be business?”

The customers also noticed the new car, its open trunk holding a large storage box.

“Wow, Boss Lu, a new car? Great taste! I bought an M5 last year!”

“No wonder you couldn’t get in. I thought it was the tricycle! Driving a car, can you start earlier? I can’t wait!”

“Boss Lu! A new car means we should celebrate—how about a special promotion?”

“It’s just a car. What’s the big deal? Hurry up with my fried noodles; I’m starving!”

By selling pre-packaged food, the customers didn’t have to wait long. Some opened their boxes and started eating nearby.

One middle-aged man, enjoying shrimp dumplings with a satisfied expression, said to Lu Qin, “Boss Lu, this car is only worth 300,000? That’s too low. At least get one for 500,000 and fully load it!”

“This car should be the top spec. Fully loaded. Domestic cars are high value for money!”

“I still think it doesn’t match Boss Lu. Go for a Bentley!”

“Boss Lu, this isn’t fair. I’ve spent half my salary here, and you just bought this car? You’re letting me down!”

“Exactly! This car is too cheap. Don’t tell people, it’s embarrassing for us!”

What?

The onlookers were dumbfounded by the customers’ strange complaints.

What was going on?

The merchant made money, yet the customers thought the car was too cheap?
