Julian smiled and said, “Maybe the elders are like this. My parents are also like this. They love to nag. My dad is the same as a grown man, let alone my mom. When I see my dad now, he is like, When a mouse sees a cat, it wants to crawl into its hole, fearing that it will talk about me.”
Two people got into the car.
Julian wanted to drive, but when Kiera sat directly on the driver’s seat, he said, “Are you driving?”
Kiera: “Well, I’ll drive. You’re not familiar with this place, and my car is ordinary. I’m afraid you won’t be used to driving. Don’t worry, my driving skills are pretty good, so you’ll be fine.”
Julian walked around the car body and then sat on the passenger seat. While fastening his seat belt, he said, “I have ridden all kinds of cars. Before I made money, I rode bicycles and electric cars. Also squeezed through the bus. Now I drive a more expensive car when I go out, mainly to save face.”
If Julian hadn’t told Kiera the truth, Julian would have said that he still owed the car loan for his car.
Because he revealed his true identity, Julian couldn’t lie to Kiera anymore.
Kiera understood and said, “You are already a big president, so you must drive a better car to show your face when you go out. My dad and my brother also drive better cars when they go out to meet friends. They usually use a car worth tens of thousands of dollars.
The car I’m driving is a very cheap one, and it’s costing a few thousand dollars. I think it’s enough to have a car for transportation. There’s no need to pursue an expensive car. Of course, my wallet is not big enough, and I can’t afford a more expensive car.”
