When Lu Zhou finished washing up and met up with Luo Wenxuan at the school gate, it was already ten o 'clock in the morning when they arrived at the car dealership in Philadelphia.
Because it was a weekend, there were a lot of people looking at cars at the dealership.
Luo Wenxuan got out of the car in a nearby parking lot and explained the situation to Lu Zhou.
"… I bought my car here. Apparently, the owner of this dealership is a rich Middle Eastern tycoon. Not only can we provide some legal and economical modifications, but we can also provide some modifications that are not required. "
When Lu Zhou heard how knowledgeable Luo Wenxuan was, he could not help but ask, "Someone you know?"
Luo Wenxuan rubbed his nose and smiled awkwardly, "Of course not."
Lu Zhou: "…"
He thought he could get a discount or something, but it seemed like that was not possible.
Luo Wenxuan coughed and changed the topic. He said, "What type of car do you like? I can recommend one to you. The cars here were relatively cheap. Excluding supercars, the average high-end car would only cost about sixty to seventy thousand USD after taking into account the discounts. I recommend a Porsche … "
When Lu Zhou heard this name, he immediately shook his head and said, "I can't spend all of my bonus on a car. I only need a means of transportation. Is there a cheaper one? "
Luo Wenxuan said, "Japanese cars and used cars are very cheap … There are even three thousand USD. But honestly, I don't recommend this type of car unless you want to waste a lot of time fixing cars."
Lu Zhou said, "Of course I wouldn't consider this …"
Although he did not want to spend too much money on a car, he did not want to risk his own safety just to save some money.
Considering that he was still a newbie, his first choice was definitely a sturdy car.
After walking around the dealership, Lu Zhou's eyes finally landed on a rough looking big car.
Then, he could not take his eyes off it.
Luo Wenxuan followed Lu Zhou's gaze and was stunned.
"Ford Explorer SUV, turbocharged mid-size SUV … You're not going to buy this, right?"
Lu Zhou immediately asked, "How much?"
"About thirty thousand dollars. But to be honest, I don't recommend you to choose this. With a budget of 30,000 USD, you can choose a Chevrolet Camaro. You can even buy a Cayenne with another 20,000 USD. And … "Luo Wenxuan hesitated halfway through his sentence.
Lu Zhou was puzzled. "And?"
Luo Wenxuan smiled embarrassedly. "Actually, it's nothing. I just feel that it doesn't match your style …"
Lu Zhou: "…"
MMP！
What do you mean by incompatible styles?
Why did it not match?
In the end, Lu Zhou insisted on his own opinion and chose this rough-looking off-road vehicle.
The total cost came to $31171.
After paying the full amount, Lu Zhou took the car keys from the dealer and excitedly pulled Luo Wenxuan to the empty space next to the store.
He had already gotten his New Jersey driver's license some time ago. Other than the fact that he still lacked some driving experience, he was now a real driver.
Lu Zhou drove straight to the parking lot and dropped Luo Wenxuan off.
Lu Zhou looked at Luo Wenxuan and said, "Thanks for today! You go back to Princeton first. I still have some stuff to do here, so I won't be going back with you. "
Luo Wenxuan: "Is it okay for you to drive yourself?"
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "I still remember the way. If I can't, I have the GPS."
Luo Wenxuan: "Okay then, see you."
Lu Zhou: "Yeah, see you. I'll treat you to dinner. "
"You don't have to treat me to dinner, just ask your friend to introduce me to a few pretty girls from the University of Pennsylvania," Luo Wenxuan said as he looked at Lu Zhou. He then rolled down the window and drove away.
Lu Zhou looked at the taillights disappearing into the parking lot and smiled as he shook his head.
This guy is pretty smart.
I can't believe he guessed where I was going.
However, he must have misunderstood something.
…
When Lu Zhou first arrived in Philadelphia, he promised Chen Yushan that he would treat her to dinner after he got his driver's license.
Now that he got his driver's license and bought a car, if he stood her up again, it would be the end of their friendship.
Lu Zhou drove to the Wharton dormitory area and took out his phone to call Chen Yushan.
"Junior Brother, you finally remembered to call Senior Sister."
Lu Zhou didn't know why, but he felt like the voice on the other end of the phone was complaining.
Lu Zhou pretended not to notice and coughed as he said, "Where are you now? I'm at the entrance of the Wharton dormitory area … But I'm not sure if you live here. "
"What? You're at the University of Pennsylvania? " The voice on the other end of the phone was full of surprise and joy as she said, "Look around, is there a Blue Island Coffee nearby?"
Lu Zhou looked out the window and said, "I think there is."
"Yeah, yeah, it's here. Wait for me, I'll be right there! "
Then, Chen Yushan quickly hung up the phone.
Even though Lu Zhou was going to leave immediately, he still waited in the car for a while. Just as he was about to doze off, he finally saw a familiar figure appear at the entrance of the dormitory area.
Since it was already March, the weather had eased up a lot. This time, Chen Yushan was wearing a long dress. Compared to when Lu Zhou first arrived in Philadelphia, she looked more youthful and beautiful.
Especially the air bangs on her forehead, it reminded Lu Zhou of two years ago when he saw her dress up for the first time in the cafeteria.
Chen Yushan opened the car door and sat in the front passenger seat. She looked around curiously.
"You bought a car?"
Lu Zhou, "Yeah, I just bought it. Where do you want to eat?"
Chen Yushan reached out her hand and said with a smile, "I know a good restaurant. Give me your phone, I'll help you locate it."
…
The destination was an Italian restaurant. It wasn't far from here, and it was within walking distance.
Lu Zhou parked the car in the parking lot near the restaurant. He then followed Chen Yushan inside.
The two of them sat down with the waiter and ordered their food.
After the food came, they began to chat while eating.
After all, they used to sit in the library and study together. There was no need to deliberately find a topic to talk about on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.
"You've been busy, right?"
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Yeah, I've been pretty busy. I've been researching Goldbach's conjecture, but there hasn't been any progress. "
Chen Yushan looked at Lu Zhou with admiration and said, "You're amazing …"
Although she did not know much about mathematics, Goldbach's conjecture was something that everyone in the country knew about.
Lu Zhou was a little embarrassed by the look of admiration, so he smiled and changed the topic.
"It's okay … What about you?"
"I'm also quite busy." Chen Yushan, who was biting the straw, sighed and said sullenly, "My supervisor has a Walmart project. It's about the management plan and training plan for the senior employees of the India branch. Now I have to read at least 20 pages of materials every day, and I have to write a report every week. I'm as tired as a dog every day."
Chen Yushan stuck out her tongue.
She looks like a cute puppy … Although it's not a good way to describe a girl.
Lu Zhou put away his rude thoughts and said, "The Walmart case, your supervisor is a nutty person."
Of course, his real thought was that working for the largest retailer in the United States would earn him a lot of money.
"It's okay, but not as good as you, great mathematician," said Chen Yushan with a smile as she looked at Lu Zhou. She then asked, "Speaking of which, why did you buy an off-road vehicle?"
"Maybe it's because I like it? Anyway, I kind of like it. Big, rough, durable … durable, "said Lu Zhou. He coughed and said," Basically, it's suitable for men like me. "
That was close, he almost said that. Luckily, he reacted in time.
However, for some reason, after hearing his last sentence, someone suddenly laughed out loud.
"Pfft …"
Lu Zhou was muddled, "What?"
Chen Yushan put her head on the table and hugged her stomach. She tried to hold back her laughter and said, "No, it's fine, Junior Brother … As long as you're happy."
Lu Zhou:???
After laughing enough, Chen Yushan looked at him with a smirk and teased, "By the way, I think you're more suited for the BMW Mini style … It's very popular."
Emmmm …
Is she saying I'm handsome?
How can I say that?
