Chapter 44
It was the era of bicycles, which was the most common form of transportation. One would be considered well-off if they could even afford a motorcycle at the time. Santanas were only meant for the rich, so what about the people who owned imported luxury cars, such as the Cadillac? Those were only meant for the richest of the rich.
The Cadillac was more than five and a half meters long and had a large engine capacity. Every step on the pedal would cost two yuan of gas. Obviously, only the wealthy and powerful could afford it.
The car withstood the test of time and continued to be an outstanding example of luxury even after 20 years. When the rich got married, they would still use a Cadillac as their bridal car. It was a sign of extravagance.
Unfortunately, Ye Qiao could not remember any tycoons from N City that could be related to Lu Beixiao. Soon, a tall man emerged from the car through the backseat door, dressed in a white suit and a fancy shirt. He must have applied a great dab of volumizing mousse in order to create that slick back hair, making it look polished and glossy. With a pair of shades, he looked just like a celebrity.
Smilingly, the celebrity-looking figure strode confidently towards Ye Qiao. He had a mobile phone in his hand, which was as chunky as a brick.
At the same time, Ye Qiao went forward to greet him.
“Hello, I’m Ye Qiao. You must be a friend of Beixiao, right?” She approached him in a friendly manner.
With a smile, the man shook his head in disapproval. “I’m not his friend.”
Was she mistaken? The man did seem familiar, like someone she had probably met in the old days.
“Well, may I know who you are?”
His efficiency was truly impressive. He had everything settled and done on her behalf.
“Your brother has some guts, that I must admit. Do you know he went up against and how he got himself into trouble?” Du Jun asked in a serious manner while taking a sip of his coffee.
