And observing her still slightly groggy appearance, Xu Musen couldn’t help but pinch her soft cheek.
"Awake yet?"
"Mm~ What are we doing this afternoon?"

An Nuannuan hummed, her voice still lazily tinged with sleepiness, but her tone also carried a hint of suggestion.
Today was Friday.
Xu Musen indeed had something in mind, the matter of buying a car that was mentioned before. The director from the vehicle management office had been very thoughtful and directly introduced Xu Musen to a 4S dealership.
Xu Musen discussed his requirements with them.
After waiting for a month for the selection and configurations, the new car had arrived, and it was the perfect day to go have a look.
"Let’s go, our car is almost ready. I’ll take you out for a spin."
"Yeah!"
An Nuannuan was excitedly squinting her eyes. Actually, she didn’t care where they went, but as long as she was with Xu Musen, she would be very happy.
At the 4S store, Xu Musen went in and made a phone call, and soon a middle-aged man came jogging over.
"Hello, hello, you must be Mr. Xu Musen, my name is Wang Gui, I’m the manager here. Please take a seat, I’ll prepare some tea for you."

The man clearly had years of sales experience; he was enthusiastic and familiar, leaving no room for criticism.
Xu Musen had anticipated this. The vehicle management office director was quite a slick operator, often bundling license plates with car purchases, and probably referred quite a few clients to him.
This was all a very practiced routine.
"The A6 you requested has already been equipped for you. The on-the-road price we can offer is around thirty-five. What do you think?"
Buying a car for three to four hundred thousand was already quite good, after all, not everyone can casually drive a car worth millions out the door.
For the average household, a car costing around two hundred thousand was already hitting the ceiling.
Xu Musen looked over the configuration sheet and instantly felt something was off.
This offness wasn’t because it was too expensive, but rather too cheap; many of the configurations were clearly the top-tier options, and this car should have cost between forty to fifty thousand, at least around forty thousand.
Xu Musen originally budgeted around thirty-plus thousand, but now his overall income had exceeded expectations, so raising the budget by a few thousand was also acceptable.
After all, better configurations meant more comfort for him.
Not to mention, just the leather and memory foam seats alone, with their ample resilience, would make any small movements on them just as good as mattresses priced in the tens of thousands!
Xu Musen looked at him and said, "Can others also get this price?"
Xu Musen deliberately asked this. In fact, his main concern was not wanting to owe anyone favors, especially when such favors were linked to Zhu Yulan.
"Well, we are the Huhai Duty-Free Store, and also the first flagship store, so we have a higher bargaining power than other places, which is why we can offer such a price. Plus, we are all friends here, this is the friends’ price we managed to get."
The man spoke flawlessly, obviously adept at handling these kinds of transactions; sometimes even managing to sell cars worth millions for only hundreds of thousands.
In the end, someone would make up the price difference...
Xu Musen looked at him, didn’t say much, and nodded: "Alright, let me check the car first then."
"Sure, please follow me."
Xu Musen gently patted An Nuannuan’s little head, who was still snacking.
4S stores would always have some snacks available, which were quite tasteful, and An Nuannuan, the little foodie, naturally wouldn’t miss out.
The A6 is a car model that has stood the test of time, with consistent sales over its more than ten years since launch.
It also gives off an inscrutable vibe, favored by many in the political sphere, adding a layer of mystery.
Xu Musen settled into the car to get a feel, having been accustomed to various luxury cars in his past life.
But this, after all, was the first car he’d earned through his own efforts, making it inherently more significant.
This was Xu Musen’s milestone of not relying on others and being independent!
Xu Musen felt a little sentimental as he touched the steering wheel, treating it as if it were a new bride in his home.
An Nuannuan wasn’t particularly interested in cars, after all, taking a Rolls-Royce to school every day made the A6, a dream car for others, seem like a baby walker to her.
But seeing Xu Musen so happy, she also felt blissfully happy.
"Are you satisfied?"
"Quite satisfied, we can proceed with the contract now."
Xu Musen nodded, the other party had clearly been instructed by someone, and Xu Musen wasn’t worried that he would be led into any traps.
"Okay, please wait a moment, I’ll go get the paperwork ready," the man said, and immediately turned around to prepare the contract.
Xu Musen then glanced over at the 4S shop next door; he patted An Nuannuan’s head, "I’m going to grab something, wait for me here."
Soon, Xu Musen came back holding two elegant tea boxes.
The man had prepared the contract too. Xu Musen took a quick look. They had included numerous complimentary maintenance services and a few other benefits.
Xu Musen asked him to charge the card directly.
Afterward, he handed both of the tea boxes to the man.
"You don’t need to be so polite, it’s all part of the job," the man immediately began to decline.
"You said we’re friends, and friends should show their gratitude. It’s just a bit of tea," Xu Musen said while placing the tea boxes directly into the man’s hands, "As for this one, please hand it over to Director Gong."
Xu Musen pointed to one of the sealed gift boxes.
The man could already feel that the two tea boxes had different weights. Based on his experience, he could gauge what was inside. Of course, the one given to him also included something extra.
"This..."
"Just give it to him, and tell him I haven’t forgotten this favor," Xu Musen said with a smile.
The discount, although amounting to tens of thousands, was not enough for Xu Musen to owe someone a favor, let alone have anything to do with Zhu Yulan.
With the money paid, future dealings would also go more smoothly.
Seeing this, the man nodded, smiling as he said, "Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to pass on the message."
The car would take a few days before it could be picked up, and Xu Musen wasn’t in a hurry for these few days.
He and An Nuannuan exited the 4S shop.
"Xu Musen, do you really like cars that much?"
An Nuannuan, having seen Xu Musen’s excitement while sitting in the car just now, felt it was similar to the joy on the night they confessed their love to each other.
"Of course, a car is like a second home to a man. Sometimes, when a man drives home, he just sits in the car for a while longer," Xu Musen explained.
"Why is that?"
"Because many people, after a busy day, just sit in the car with a lit cigarette in the parking garage, without thinking about work, mortgages, car loans, children’s living expenses, the wife’s nagging, and the trivialities of family life... That time truly belongs to oneself," Xu Musen reflected with a sigh.
In his previous life, Yao Mingyue didn’t control him so tightly, and he liked to stay in the car alone for a while.
Only then did he feel truly free.
This was also a true portrait of many middle-aged men.
As he spoke, he suddenly felt An Nuannuan pause in her steps.
Xu Musen turned his head to meet An Nuannuan’s slightly pouting lips and her clear, emotional eyes.
"What’s wrong?" Xu Musen asked, bending down to her.
An Nuannuan suddenly stretched out her hand, gently cupping his cheek, her beautiful face serious.
"I will never let you stay in the car alone. I will always work with you to get better and better, so I won’t become a burden," An Nuannuan earnestly said word by word, her clear eyes showing stubbornness and sincerity.
She didn’t want to see again the fleeting look of desolation in Xu Musen’s eyes from earlier.
"If you’re ever unhappy, don’t tell the car; tell me. Otherwise, I will... I’ll get jealous..."
Jealous.
What a beautiful word.
Xu Musen had mentioned it often, and she had learned it from him.
Silly, simple, adorable...
Xu Musen also cupped her soft cheeks, giving a gentle kiss to the corner of her lips.
"As you command, my dear Nuannuan~"
