For a moment, Qin Nuannuan was utterly speechless.

Qin’s father shook his head, looking at her as if she were beyond saving.

“You don’t recommend any of the best-selling brands, and instead you go on and on about obscure little labels no one has heard of. I honestly have no idea what you’re thinking. I’ve looked into that car myself, and people online say it has low-frequency resonance. You even recommended it to your sister—what, are you trying to make her miscarry?”

Yang Xiaofan’s face darkened. Those two words were the very last thing he wanted to hear.

Qin Nuannuan pouted, looking rather wronged.

“I was only trying to save my brother-in-law some money. The German luxury brands are all terribly overpriced and not very honest about it. This one is more reasonable, and much more affordable. Otherwise, if you want a car that’s spacious, powerful, and environmentally friendly, you’d at least have to go for a flagship model from one of the big luxury brands. The more expensive the car, the better the craftsmanship. Take Rolls-Royce, for example—those hand-built cars are surely comfortable and eco-friendly, but they’re expensive!”

“And besides, my brother-in-law already has a Ferrari. Why would he need to spend more money on another car?”

She was trying to save Yang Xiaofan money, but his eyes suddenly lit up.

Right—if he simply bought something more expensive, wouldn’t that solve everything?

A Rolls-Royce would certainly have air suspension, or even some kind of electromagnetic suspension.

And the seats would definitely be made with the finest materials.

Since it was entirely hand-built, it probably wouldn’t have the usual new-car smell either.

Then, on the highway, he wouldn’t need to open the windows. At most, he could crack the sunroof a little, and it still wouldn’t affect the child in Nuanyu’s womb.

Perfect.

That was it.

“Driver, take us to the Rolls-Royce dealership.”

“??? ”

The Qin family stared at Yang Xiaofan in unison, all of them dumbfounded.

“You want to buy a Rolls-Royce?”

Yang Xiaofan nodded very seriously.

“Of course. Since I’m having Nuanyu ride in it, I have to let her ride in the most comfortable and best car.”

“But Rolls-Royce is so expensive, and you already have a Ferrari! A car starts depreciating the moment you buy it, so it’s a losing deal. Especially a luxury car like that—you’ll lose hundreds of thousands the second you drive it off the lot!”

Because they were so fond of Yang Xiaofan, even Qin’s father had begun thinking on his behalf.

A son-in-law is half a son. Now that he had accepted Yang Xiaofan, he couldn’t bear to see his money wasted.

Yang Xiaofan shrugged.

“It’s nothing. Just a little pocket change. I can make it back with a single painting.”

The faces of Qin’s father and mother twitched violently.

Just what kind of godlike man was their son-in-law, exactly?

Behind them, Qin Nuannuan was also staring dazedly at Yang Xiaofan’s back.

For the rest of her life, she no longer knew what kind of man she should look for in the future.

In this world, there probably wouldn’t be many people as powerful as her brother-in-law—powerful enough to make her heart stir with admiration.

The group soon arrived at the Rolls-Royce dealership.

The staff immediately came forward with smiling faces to greet them.

“Hello, are you here to look at cars, or—oh my God, you… you’re that incredibly popular brother-in-law from the internet?”

The female receptionist recognized Yang Xiaofan at once.

Yang Xiaofan was rather speechless. He coughed lightly and said, “Keep it low-key.”

Seeing him admit it, the woman grew even more excited.

“Oh my, it really is you? I never imagined I’d get to meet you today. I’m so honored. Are you here to buy a car?”

“Yes. I want to buy a Rolls-Royce. But there aren’t many people inside, right?”

Yang Xiaofan was growing wary now.

These people were too fanatical. They got so excited just seeing him—he was genuinely afraid there might be a crowd inside too, surrounding him so tightly that he wouldn’t even be able to run.

The saleswoman hurriedly waved her hands.

“No, no. A high-end car dealership like Rolls-Royce usually doesn’t get many visitors. Apart from a few top-tier wealthy clients, and the occasional people who come to take photos, most of the rest are just our sales staff.”

“That’s good. Please take us in to have a look.”

“Of course. This way, please.”

She made a welcoming gesture, her courteous manner filling Qin’s father and mother with pride.

This was what their future good son-in-law, Yang Xiaofan, had brought them.

If not for Yang Xiaofan, let alone the staff of a Rolls-Royce dealership, even the employees of an ordinary shop would never be this respectful toward them.

With that, the old couple became even more satisfied with Yang Xiaofan.

He really was the best son-in-law in the world.

As they walked, Qin’s mother could not help asking, “How do you know our Xiaofan too? Have you watched his livestreams?”

The saleswoman smiled.

“I haven’t watched the brother-in-law’s livestreams myself, of course, but the fact that he’s currently the most popular brother-in-law on the entire internet is undeniable. Just this morning, eight out of ten posts in my social feed were about him. All the major chat groups are filled with information about him too. He’s unbelievably famous right now. To be able to find a son-in-law like that, you are truly blessed beyond measure!”

Qin’s mother nodded, her smile growing even brighter.

It wasn’t that she was materialistic; it was just that having such a son-in-law who brought her honor and prestige made any mother-in-law unable to suppress her excitement.

As soon as the group entered, they drew the attention of quite a few salespeople. Fortunately, with the first female receptionist present to ask them not to crowd around, the others did not come up to disturb them.

That allowed Yang Xiaofan and the others to examine the cars in peace.

The moment Qin Nuannuan stepped inside, she was drawn to a Phantom.

Pointing at it, she kept swallowing in admiration.

“Wow! Brother-in-law, look at this Phantom—it’s so handsome! Grand and elegant, beautiful to look at, practically a work of art! Riding in this car would definitely turn heads.”

“This car is too long. It’s almost six meters. In the county town, I wouldn’t even be able to fit it into a parking space. What would I drive it for?”

Yang Xiaofan immediately crossed it off his list.

Qin Nuannuan then pointed at the Rolls-Royce Wraith behind it.

“What about this Wraith? It’s only five-point-two meters long, about the same length as a Mercedes S-Class. It should fit in most parking spaces.”

“Isn’t that still a two-door sports car?”

Yang Xiaofan frowned.

“Enough. Don’t talk anymore. Everything you suggest sounds unreliable. I’ll pick one myself.”

After looking around the showroom for a while, Yang Xiaofan’s gaze settled on a Cullinan.

His eyes lit up.

The Cullinan had high ground clearance, which would make trips back to his hometown easier, especially on rural roads.

The roads there were not built to any proper standard. They were hardly wider than five meters, and at most only about four. When passing oncoming vehicles, you sometimes had to drop a wheel to the side, which made it easy to scrape the undercarriage.

Besides, this car looked heavy and substantial. It ought to drive very steadily, shouldn’t it?

“How much is this car?”

He asked the saleswoman.

The beautiful saleswoman immediately replied with a smile, “This is a brand-new car that just arrived at our dealership. Its options are already nearly fully loaded, and the bare price is a little over nine million.”
