"A BMW X5… and the top-tier version at that," David said, unable to hide the envy in his voice. "I can't believe someone at our school drives something like that."
"Is that car very expensive?" Emily couldn't help but ask. She didn't know much about cars, only that BMW was a brand, but not the specific model.
So, after hearing David say that, she asked.
"Very expensive! This is a top-tier BMW X5, with all the optional features maxed out. The total cost would be around $120,000," David said, his eyes filled with envy as he looked at the BMW X5 that had already parked.
$120,000!!
Hearing the number David stated, Emily paused, then couldn't help but glance at the BMW X5 again.
She really hadn't expected this car, which looked so sporty, stylish, and cool, to be so expensive.
"So rich. I have no hope of driving such a nice car in this lifetime. Sigh, $120,000, where would I get the money to buy such a good car?" David sighed, and after reluctantly retracting his gaze, he realized Emily was still there.
"Realizing Emily hadn't responded, David quickly added, trying to save face.
"Well, my parents said that once I graduate and land a decent job, they'll help me get my first car. Nothing fancy—maybe something around $25,000 to $30,000. That's already pretty good for a normal family."
He let out a small laugh. "Most fresh graduates barely make enough to cover rent and expenses. If you wanted to buy a car worth over $30,000 on your own, you'd be saving for years, living cheap the whole time."
He straightened slightly, as if encouraging himself. "Still… if I work hard, get promoted, and my salary goes up, then maybe one day even a BMW X5 wouldn't be out of reach."
"And what if I work hard and get promoted and a raise? Then I'd also be able to afford a BMW X5," David said.
Emily, however, didn't speak, because her gaze was still on the BMW X5.
She saw that the car had already parked, so she wanted to see who would get out of it.
The next second, her beautiful eyes instantly widened, filled with disbelief.
Because she saw the person who got out of the BMW X5.
Evan.
It's him?
How could it be him?
Didn't his family background was very ordinary?
Emily stood at the supermarket entrance, watching Evan get out of the car, her heart churning.
Because she never expected it would be Evan getting out of the car.
This made her quite disbelieving.
This is called an ordinary family background?
Ordinary enough to drive a luxury car worth over $120,000 right after starting college?
What ordinary person's family is like this!
…
"Junior, do you know him?" David noticed Emily's surprise and shock. He followed her gaze and also saw Evan getting out of the BMW.
Immediately, David 's heart skipped a beat.
Because he could tell that Evan was not old, clearly a freshman.
A freshman driving a BMW X5?
Such a rich second-generation heir?
Driving a luxury car in college is completely different from driving one after working!!
If he knew Emily, wouldn't he have no chance at all?
He had no confidence competing with a rich second-generation heir who drove a top-tier BMW X5 right after starting college.
David felt upset, but he still pressed on with his question.
Emily didn't speak, because at that moment, looking at Evan, she thought a lot. But when she saw David standing beside her, she ultimately chose to turn and enter the supermarket.
Even though she had no relationship with David ,she couldn't let evan see them.
This was Emily's inner thought.
And her action and reaction of turning to enter the supermarket immediately made David breathe a sigh of relief.
Because he felt that this clearly meant they didn't know each other.
Otherwise, why wouldn't they even say hello?
Thinking this, he felt relieved.
"Junior, did you forget to buy something? Tell me, and I'll help you find it," David said, suppressing his thoughts. He glanced enviously at Evan, then turned and entered the supermarket, speaking to Emily.
"No need, I'll find what I want myself," Emily refused very directly.
"Junior, why are you being so polite with me? It's fine…" David smiled. He looked at Emily's beautiful, fair face, his eyes eager, and then he wanted to speak.
But before he could finish, Emily directly interrupted him.
"I said, I'll find it myself, and please don't talk to me anymore in the future. I don't like you." Emily was very direct. As she spoke, she also held her phone and, right in front of David , directly deleted and blocked him in one swift motion.
The entire process happened in an extremely short time, leaving David no time to react.
"No, Junior, what are you doing? Did I do something to upset you?" Once he reacted, David immediately became anxious.
But at the same time, he was utterly confused.
Because he completely didn't understand why Emily would suddenly delete and block him.
Just a second ago, they could still chat together. Although he couldn't treat her to dinner, they could still chat.
But now…
Why?
"Junior, if I did something wrong, or something that made you unhappy, just tell me, and I'll definitely correct it, but please don't delete and block me. I was wrong," David said, suppressing the confusion in his heart. He quickly spoke to Emily.
His posture was extremely low.
He had actually dated several girlfriends before, and during those relationships, he was in a dominant position. But at this moment, facing Emily, he subconsciously lowered his own posture.
No choice, Emily's looks and figure were right there.
Simply top-notch.
David really didn't want to give up.
"You didn't do anything wrong, but I don't like you." Under David 's low posture, Emily only said this one sentence, then simply turned to leave.
David still wanted to go after her.
Emily, however, turned her head to look at him.
David subconsciously stopped, because he saw that Emily's eyes were very impatient.
It wasn't until Emily turned a corner and went behind the shelves, completely out of sight, that David rubbed his hair with his hand, looking annoyed and frustrated.
He had no idea what had happened.
Before, they could still contact, occasionally chat a few words. Even though Emily's replies were very brief, it still counted as chatting. But now, even contact was gone.
And Emily's attitude when speaking to him was direct and decisive, leaving no room for doubt.
Who could tell him what happened!!
David stood in place, looking melancholic.
He prided himself on having dated several girlfriends and understanding women well, but at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a bit bewildered.
He clearly hadn't upset Emily.
In the supermarket.
Behind a row of shelves displaying various potato chips.
At this moment, Emily is standing right here.
She didn't think about David , because after seeing Evan get out of the BMW X5, she had already decided to block and delete David and have no further contact with him.
Because she finally had a target and a candidate for a boyfriend.
That was Evan.
Driving a luxury car worth over$ 120,000 right after starting university clearly indicates a wealthy family background.
A car worth over $120,000 yuan, bought right after starting university, is something most wealthy families wouldn't be willing to do.
Emily knew she had to seize the opportunity.
Her family wasn't well-off, so she matured very early. When she was in junior high school, she knew that if she wanted to change her fate and live a life free from worries about food and clothing, she had to rely on her looks and figure.
Fortunately, she was very beautiful and had a great figure.
Since junior high school, she has had boys pursuing her, but she has rejected them all because she knows that she only has one chance.
Therefore, she cherished it especially.
Her goal was to find a boyfriend from a very wealthy family in college, marry him after graduation, and thus achieve upward social mobility and never have to worry about money again.
Why look for jobs in college, instead of in the general market after graduation?
This is where Emily's cleverness lies.
Because she knew that love in college was relatively simple, pure, and sincere; even rich kids valued love.
But once they enter the workforce, the rich kids will quickly realize how popular they are, and if they try to pursue them then, they'll only become short-term girlfriends.
Thankfully, she came to the supermarket today; otherwise, I probably would never have known he was a rich kid.
No wonder he looked so calm and confident when we were eating lunch in the cafeteria.
I was puzzled at the time.
In retrospect, his composure and confidence seem quite normal.
After all, he was driving a luxury car worth over $120,000 right after starting university.
Standing behind the shelves, Emily felt that she had figured everything out.
Then, she briefly recalled what happened at the cafeteria at noon and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she didn't know Evan was a rich second-generation at the time, she behaved very well overall and did not behave rudely.
That's good.
With that, things will be much easier from here on out.
Create more opportunities to spend time together, and naturally become boyfriend and girlfriend with him.
That way, after four years of university, you'll be set.
With these thoughts swirling in her mind, Emily walked out of the supermarket, preparing to return to her dormitory.
Soon, she returned to her dormitory and opened the door, only to find that none of her roommates were there.
Clearly, Jasmine hasn't returned from shopping for clothes yet.
When she gets back, I'll ask more about Evan.
Thinking of this, Emily smiled and then prepared to wash her hair.
