Chapter 31: An Awesome License Plate
Buying a car is a big deal, at least for men, it’s one of the major events in life.
Liu Ruyan’s eyes scanned the entire showroom, finding everything from the worst minivans to some luxurious BMWs and Audis. Of course, luxury cars were quite rare.
She thought about it and decided it wasn’t good to help Liu Zixuan judge, so she said, "I think any of them would be fine, you decide!"
"Any recommendations?" Liu Zixuan asked Zhang Yuhang.
Zhang Yuhang chuckled and said, "Doctor Liu, maybe I don’t understand other things, but when it comes to cars in all of Yuqing Town, if I, Zhang Yuhang, claim second, no one dares to claim first!"
Saying that, he led Liu Zixuan towards those luxury cars.
Compared to luxury cars in first-tier cities, these were still inferior, but any one of these cars would attract countless eyes on the streets. Just like the BMW Z4 before.
Zhang Yuhang patted the Audi TT and a Toyota Land Cruiser nearby, smiled, and said, "Doctor Liu, consider these two cars gifts for you and your girlfriend. Mayor Liu drives this Audi, you drive the Land Cruiser, it perfectly matches your identity and demeanor!"
"Besides, I’ve given these two cars some minor modifications and upgrades, definitely several times better in performance than similar cars!"
Seeing Zhang Yuhang’s generosity, Liu Zixuan grinned, "Well, one car is enough."
He thought, this is way too generous, these two cars are the most expensive in the entire dealership, initially, he just wanted Zhang Yuhang, the expert, to help recommend something.
Who would have thought, he would offer two cars instead... making Liu Zixuan and Liu Ruyan feel a bit embarrassed.
But Zhang Yuhang shook his head, "Doctor Liu, if you say this, I’ll be displeased, you’re my lifesaver, I wouldn’t feel bad even if I gave you my entire car dealership, what’s two cars?"
"It’s not easy doing business. Besides, these two cars together cost two million." Liu Zixuan shrugged, feeling the weight of the gesture.
"Even so, if it weren’t for you saving my life, I wouldn’t be able to spend twenty million even if I had it, right? You are righteous, and with your excellent medical skills, I’ll definitely need your help in the future, so you must accept this gift."
Zhang Yuhang’s words were firm, as if Liu Zixuan’s refusal would genuinely upset him.
Liu Zixuan looked at Liu Ruyan helplessly, who returned a look of helplessness.
"How about this, I’ll accept the car, but there’s a condition, I’ll only take one. Since we’re in Lingxiu Village, when I leave for a big city, then I’ll come to you for the other car."
Liu Zixuan thought that’s the only way, after all, he only casually saved Zhang Yuhang’s life back then, he never imagined he would repay a small favor with such generosity.
Zhang Yuhang thought for a moment, sighed, and said, "Since you insist, that’s the only way, but it’s agreed, I’ll cover all your cars in the future."
"Deal." Liu Zixuan grinned and looked at the imposing Toyota Land Cruiser, feeling delighted. Such a ride truly matched his high-profile identity!
Liu Zixuan smiled and went for a test drive, also drove around the streets outside, garnering a hundred percent heads turning. Many girls shot him peculiar glances, as if they were about to pounce.
Back at the dealership, Liu Zixuan laughed, "This car is great. High-end and classy!"
"It suits you perfectly!" Zhang Yuhang laughed, snapping his fingers, "However, something’s still missing!"
"What’s missing?" Liu Zixuan asked.
"An awesome license plate!"
Zhang Yuhang said, "You may not know much since you just arrived here, Yuqing Town isn’t known for wealth, so there aren’t too many big shots, but the city area next to Yuqing Town, there, people like you all have impressive license plates on their cars."
This "big shot" talk made Liu Zixuan a bit uncomfortable.

He said, "Don’t flatter me, I’m no big deal, just a small doctor. Plus, many things should be kept low-key."
Zhang Yuhang looked at him with respect, acknowledging that with Liu Zixuan’s connections in Yuqing Town, he could easily be one of the top figures there.
After all, he knew Zhang Yuhang and Zhu Yiqun here, and even had Huang Youcai bow before him, not many in Yuqing Town could do that.
Yet, he didn’t show off, choosing to remain humble and discreet.
This, was the true demeanor of a great person.
Then, Zhang Yuhang said, "How about this, I got a license plate through a friend earlier, haven’t attached it to my car, I’ll just give it to you, though it’s not that great."
"Yeah, low-key is fine." Liu Zixuan thought, it’s hard to stay low-key with such a Land Cruiser in Yuqing Town, if he got a cool license plate too, wouldn’t he be flying high with the sun?
Zhang Yuhang went into his office, brought out a blue license plate, and handed it to Liu Zixuan.
When Liu Zixuan looked at the numbers, his mouth twitched a few times, murmuring, "And you call this not great? How amazing would the great one be?
"This license plate... is so strange!" Liu Ruyan also commented.
Zhang Yuhang pointed at the numbers and said, "X74110, this license plate is very normal!"
"You’ll anger the cops with this, and you call it normal!"
Liu Zixuan rubbed his forehead, "Alright, I’ll take it! If you get another one later, remember to switch it for me. One day I might run into the police, and they might think I’m provoking them!"
"Hahaha." His words made everyone burst into laughter.
After staying at the car dealership for a while, Zhu Yiqun called, saying he bought everything they needed.
Liu Zixuan then took Liu Ruyan to say goodbye to Zhang Yuhang and drove towards Zhu Yiqun and the others.
"This car is really comfortable." Liu Zixuan said, admiring the Land Cruiser’s interior.
Liu Ruyan looked around, "It’s indeed different, seems better than my dad’s!"
"Your dad drives a Land Cruiser too?" Liu Zixuan grinned, "So you’re actually a little rich kid!"
"So driving a Land Cruiser makes you a rich kid? Then you’re one too, but are you the first gen or the second gen?" Liu Ruyan asked with a hint of annoyance.
Liu Zixuan suddenly remembered his beautiful mentor’s words before he left, that Liu Ruyan’s adoptive parents weren’t easy people, so he asked, "By the way, how did your family agree to let you work here?"
"I..."
Liu Ruyan looked out the window with a bit of confusion, and after a long silence, said, "Actually, my dad wants me to gain some experience, then take me to work in the city, but I don’t want to go."
"Isn’t it better in the city? Why don’t you want to go?" Liu Zixuan could tell Liu Ruyan seemed to have some unspeakable reasons.
