Chapter 28: 28, he isn't very weak, is he?
"I'm mainly worried about disturbing your shopping fun, but if you don't mind, th let's go together."
"However, I have to pick up my daughter from school at four thirty."
Yang Hao's main job lately had be to lose weight and th to take good care of his precious little girl.
Shopping with wom wasn't impossible, but it definitely could not interfere with picking up his daughter from school.
"Yang is really a good father."
Zhao Yingying praised him with a smiling face.
"Where are you planning to go for shopping?" Yang Hao asked.
"Starlight City, it's closer," Zhao Yingying replied.
Yang Hao nodded, "Th let's go, I'll give you a lift."
With that, he walked toward his Regal U8.
Sun Xinyi subconsciously touched her waist, grateful that she wasn't wearing a crop top today; the chilling ssation of the wind passing over her midriff from yesterday still haunted her.
Still, an electric scooter would be fine for one person but way too cramped for two, right?
Zhao Yingying, on the other hand, was wondering if he would really show up in a BYD, and if not, it would prove that he also lied yesterday, which would mean she couldn't blame herself tirely either.
The two wom, each harboring their own thoughts, followed behind Yang Hao. Sun Xinyi was still looking a for Yang Hao's electric scooter wh, to her surprise, she didn't find it.
As she was wondering, the lights of a large SUV flashed twice in front of her, and th Yang Hao pulled op the driver's door and got in.
Only th did Sun Xinyi realize that Yang Hao hadn't come on his electric scooter today. She curiously looked over the aggressive-looking car in front of her, not recognizing the brand.
Zhao Yingying didn't recognize the Regal U8 either, but in the parking lot of the Bolli Fitness Cter, which already had twty or thirty cars parked, Yang Hao's vehicle stood out like a crane among chicks, exuding an extremely strong presce.
This kind of car wouldn't be cheap, that was a giv.
Hmph, this is your BYD??
Zhao Yingying rolled her eyes internally, took a photo of the aggressive-looking SUV, and posted it to the sales associates' group chat: Girls, does anyone know what car this is?
Sales associates like Zhao Yingying, who sell high-d cosmetics or luxury goods, td to have somewhat skewed thoughts. As they deal with wealthy people and serve them year-, they have a high opinion of themselves and look down on ordinary workers, all aspiring to marry into wealth.
However, in the eyes of the wealthy, they are just waitstaff, and occasionally, some greasy old man would fancy their bodies, spd some money to tertain themselves for a while, showing them an ev greater world, which makes it ev harder for them to settle for an average boyfrid thereafter.
Thus, almost all the sales associates like them evtually set the ultimate goal of snagging a wealthy husband. In their group chat, they seldom talk about work, focusing almost tirely on various luxury goods, how to "fish" for partners, how to idtify high-quality m, how to get m to spd money on them, and the like.
After sding her message, Zhao Yingying eagerly pulled Sun Xinyi into the car.
Once seated inside, she felt ev more certain that this was an expsive luxury car because the interior looked very high-d with areas reachable by hand being wrapped in real leather, which felt very substantial. Furthermore, an SUV was ev equipped with rear tertainmt features, a configuration usually found only in luxury sedans, like the Mercedes-Bz S-Class, BMW 7 series, and the like.

While Zhao Yingying was siltly evaluating the car's interior, someone in the sales associates' group chat tagged her.
Moumou: @Alisa This is a Regal U8, worth more than a million!
Moumou: This is a high-d brand of BYD. The ones who drive this car are definitely low-profile rich folks!
Moumou: Yingying, if you know the owner of this car, you've got to seize the opportunity!
Moumou was a former colleague of Zhao Yingying, who had also be in cosmetics sales but had since moved on to selling Chanel, dealing with a higher-d clitele.
Zhao Yingying looked at the messages, first feeling that the price tag of more than a million was within reason. But wh she saw the part about it actually being a BYD, she felt like cursing.
Damn, your BYD actually has a car worth more than a million!
And the important thing is, people are really buying it!!
The world of the wealthy, she just didn't understand!
"Yang, is this car a Regal U8?"
Despite her internal scoffing, Zhao Yingying still used the topic of cars to strike up a conversation with Yang Hao.
The sales associates' group had previously shared that wh talking to m, if you run out of topics, talk about cars. Out of a hundred m, ninety-nine will be interested in them.
Many m don't ev have a thousand yuan in their bank cards, but they can spd hours browsing "Black Car Empire," from luxury cars costing millions to second-hand cars worth ts of thousands, all of which they find utterly fascinating.
"You actually know about this car?"
Yang Hao looked at Zhao Yingying in surprise, as this car had only rectly hit the market and hadn't be heavily marketed. M with a special interest in cars might know about it, but it was rare for wom to be aware of this particular model.
"It's BYD's top-of-the-line model, and I really like it."
"I've be following it for a while..." Zhao Yingying was quick to claim, saying so with a cheerful laugh.
Sun Xinyi, on the other hand, was somewhat speechless, as she had se through her best frid's ruse. Clearly, her frid had gott the information from a group chat and instantly passed it off as her own long-standing interest.
"Yeah, there's nothing to criticize about this car's performance!"
In fact, Yang Hao wasn't particularly familiar with the U8 model; he had only se a few off-road and water fording tests. The car had an emergcy water flotation mode that would allow it to travel on the surface of the water for about thirty minutes in case it accidtally drove into water.
Leaving aside whether this feature was actually useful, its cool factor was extremely high. If Mercedes-Bz had this technology, they would definitely dare to sell the car for five million yuan.
Moreover, this car had a feature for turning a in place. If this were offered by joint-vture luxury brands, they'd likely charge a service fee of 9,999 yuan per year. You'd have to pay to activate the feature; without paymt, you wouldn't be able to use it.
After all, Mercedes-Bz charges 4,998 yuan a year for their rear-wheel steering feature, and turning a in place is way cooler than rear-wheel steering!
A few minutes later.
Yang Hao drove down to the underg parking lot of Starlight City.
"Yang, what do you want to eat? It's my treat."
While waiting for the elevator, Zhao Yingying asked.
"Hotpot,"
"But I'm trying to cut fat, so I'll just have some vegetables."
Yang Hao was guinely hungry now, especially since he had be doing physically demanding work all afternoon.
"Yang, you can have some beef today too."
Sun Xinyi chimed in; she had prepared a fat-reducing meal of beef and vegetable salad for Yang Hao, but the portion wasn't large, so a bit more wouldn't be a problem. After all, beef is a high-quality protein with low fat contt, suitable for his fat-reducing phase.
"Yep."
Yang Hao nodded, swallowing reflexively. Dieting to lose weight was truly painful, but losing a pound meant earning a hundred thousand yuan, so he had to stick with it ev if it meant eating grass every day!
Besides, reaching the system's set target would add % to the progress of the main quest. So far, the body managemt task was the only one that would add to the main quest progress, indicating its high priority in the system's view.
"How about Haidilao th?"
Zhao Yingying suggested, noting that there was a Haidilao restaurant right in Starlight City.
"Sure."
Yang Hao nodded. Once upon a time, turning a hotpot restaurant into a franchise like Haidilao had be his dream.
Unfortunately, Haidilao's model seemed simple but was actually quite difficult to replicate, which is why those who attempted to imitate it oft fell by the wayside.
Since it was a weekday, the occupancy rate at Haidilao wasn't very high—only about forty perct.
The waiter seated the three of them at a window-side table for four.
Zhao Yingying passed the iPad for ordering to Yang Hao: "Yang, you order."
"A portion of Chinese yam, a portion of wood ear mushrooms, and a portion of loach."
"Xinyi, it's okay for me to eat loach, right?"
After expding a lot of ergy at noon, Yang Hao still wanted to replish himself.
"No problem, loach is also high in protein and low in fat contt, making it suitable for your diet," Sun Xinyi assured.
Zhao Yingying just looked at Yang Hao siltly. All three foods they ordered were known for their befits to kidney health.
He wasn't seriously deficit, was he?
Forget it, considering the U8, a little deficicy was fine, as long as it didn't mean a complete loss of function.
