At this moment, Su Yan was lost in thought about expanding his team.
Running a company meant he would need a large number of drivers, especially for business operations.
However, with the company already employing many drivers, this would save him a lot of effort.
"You..." Aunt He started, looking at him intently.
"You don't have a car yet, do you?"
"The cars are on the way... But I still want to buy more," Su Yan replied.
"Aunt He, the company has expanded, and I need a fleet of vehicles. These will primarily be for business use."
The two of them chatted casually, and time seemed to pass without notice.
Eventually, they left the office.
After stepping out, Su Yan made a spontaneous decision—he would buy the place they had just visited and put He Ling in charge of managing it.
With that thought in mind, he invited He Ling to join him in the Rolls-Royce, heading toward the city.
As Su Yan glanced at He Ling's slightly flushed, radiant face, he couldn't help but appreciate her more.
She truly embodied the charm of a mature woman, and her complexion had improved significantly in recent days.
Su Yan knew well that this change was largely due to his care and attention.
After all, when someone is close to you, they inevitably become more youthful and vibrant.
In her prime, Aunt He maintained the allure of a woman in her prime, one who had found a way to stay both graceful and charming.
"Xiaoyan, where are we headed now?" He Ling asked.
"I'm taking you to the city," Su Yan replied. "I figured it's about time I show Aunt He my company."
Hearing that Su Yan planned to take her to see his company, He Ling couldn't contain her excitement.
In her eyes, Su Yan was an extraordinarily capable young man.
After all, he had already purchased so many luxury cars and properties. Surely, his company must be just as impressive!
He Ling found herself filled with a sense of anticipation. This kid is really something, she thought to herself.
"All right then, Auntie can't wait to take a proper look at your company!" she replied, laughing lightly.
But while she was speaking, her mind wandered off to certain thoughts—thoughts about the things that had happened between her and Su Yan in the past. Especially in the privacy of the office... She felt a little anxious as those memories flashed through her mind.
What's wrong with me? She chided herself silently. Why do I think about all these messy things whenever I'm around this boy?
As these thoughts clouded her mind, He Ling's heartbeat quickened.
Meanwhile, the car had entered Lujiazui, the city's central business district, with the scenery becoming more luxurious and dazzling as they drove through.
He Ling looked around, momentarily stunned by the bustling prosperity of the area.
She couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy.
The real estate prices here were astronomical compared to those in the suburbs.
She had purchased her suburban home with the money Su Yan had lent her. As for living in the city? She knew she could only dream of owning property in such a high-end area.
After a short while, Su Yan brought the car to a halt in the luxury automobile district, where various top-tier car brands were clustered together.
Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Maybach—this place had them all.
After Su Yan found a parking spot and parked the coupe, a Rolls-Royce salesman rushed out to greet them, fearing he might lose this potential customer to their competitors, Bentley or Maybach.
Right now, Maybach and Bentley were fierce rivals of Rolls-Royce, vying for dominance in the ultra-luxury car market.
Seeing Su Yan step out of a two-door Rolls-Royce Phantom coupe, the salesman could tell right away that this man might be in the market for a four-door model.
"Hello, sir! Welcome to Rolls-Royce. And this is your mother? She's absolutely stunning," the salesman said politely, trying to flatter them both.
Su Yan could only shake his head with a slight smile.
Whenever he went out with He Ling, people often mistook them for mother and son.
It wasn't too surprising, given their 24-year age gap.
Even though He Ling could very well pass as his wife, when they were seen together in public, people still saw them as mother and son.
But Su Yan had gotten used to it by now.
Think what you want, he mused. The important thing is buying the cars.
"Show me the Phantom," Su Yan said coolly. "If the price is right, I'll take the car today."
When it came to luxury lineups, the primary contenders were Maybach, Rolls-Royce, and Bentley.
In just a few years, Maybach would be absorbed into Mercedes-Benz, while Bentley would retreat from the top-tier ultra-luxury market, leaving Rolls-Royce to dominate alone.
As Su Yan considered this, an idea crossed his mind: Could he easily buy Maybach?
Of course, Maybach wasn't exactly profitable, but it could be fun to own just for the novelty of it.
"Sir, you have excellent taste," the salesman praised. "Follow me, please. Now, would you prefer the previous Phantom model, or are you looking for the newest release? The older models come with better discounts."
Su Yan was a modern young man. He didn't have much attachment to older cars.
"The new model. Do you have three in stock?"
Su Yan had recently bought a building, invested in Weixin, and acquired 20% of Tengxun shares. After all that, he still had 4.2 billion yuan left on his investment card.
On top of that, he had earned additional profits from trading Jiaduobao stock.
Assembling a fleet worth over a hundred million was no big deal.
The salesman looked a little stunned for a moment, trying to process what Su Yan had just said.
This young man had come in, apparently on a shopping spree with this elegant older woman, and now he was talking about buying three Phantoms?
What a massive order—thirty million at least!
Excitement flickered in the salesman's eyes.
He marveled at how much this mother must love her son to indulge him with such extravagant purchases.
