How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

```

After getting out of the car, Gu Heng rushed directly to the rear of the vehicle.

The owner of the red sedan had already gotten out of her car and was waiting at the rear...

"I’m really sorry, I was looking at the scenery while parking just now and didn’t notice your car in front of me. I accidentally scratched your car, but don’t worry, I’ll take full responsibility for this matter—your losses will be fully covered by me..."

The driver was a woman...

Upon seeing Gu Heng get out of his car, she hurriedly apologized to him with a face full of regret...

The woman was probably in her twenties, dressed in a wine-red wool coat, with a pure black lace shirt underneath, and a pair of high-waisted, wide-leg white pants on the bottom, her face lightly made up with professional makeup, her slightly red hair shining under the gentle afterglow of the setting sun, looking even more lustrous...

Her features were exquisitely delicate. Even though Gu Heng had become extremely selective in Hang City, a city teeming with beauties, he was still slightly taken aback by her...

But what was most important was not just her beauty...

It was the faint aura she exuded without even trying that truly amazed Gu Heng...

This was something he had never seen in women like He Jing or Lin Jiayun...

But does it matter?!

No, it doesn’t!

He had just driven his new car out of the 4S dealership today; not to mention the break-in period, even the tires hadn’t warmed up before his first time was ruined like this!

Ignoring the woman, he shifted his gaze to the rear of his car where he saw two clear scratches over 10 centimeters long. Gu Heng’s heart clenched...

An ordinary person would grieve for days at the mere drop of a new cell phone, let alone his prized possession worth 3.8 million...

Only a car owner could empathize with this kind of heartache...

He immediately pulled out his phone and made a video call to sales consultant Liu Wen...

"Mr. Gu, good evening, what can I do for you?"

Gu Heng had no intention of exchanging pleasantries with her, he instantly flipped the camera to show her the scratches: "How should this kind of scratch be dealt with?"

Looking at the clear scratch in front of her, Liu Wen on the other side of the phone was also taken aback...

Gu Heng had only picked up the car this afternoon, right? In just a few hours, it had met with misfortune? The insurance probably hadn’t even kicked in, had it?

But Liu Wen didn’t ask further, responding hurriedly, "Mr. Gu, please hold on, I’m not very knowledgeable about assessing damage. I’ll get our 4S shop’s repair master to come take a look for you right away..."

After saying that, she grabbed her phone and started running with a clack-clack of her high heels.

The woman who had been listening in all this while, seeing the pained expression on Gu Heng’s face, stepped forward again and said, "Sir, I’m really sorry, I truly didn’t do it on purpose..."

"Enough talk, are we calling insurance to assess the damage or reporting it to the police?"

"No need to call the police. Whatever the cost, I’ll pay!"

After speaking, she also took out a business card and handed it to Gu Heng.

Hearing the woman’s decisive tone, Gu Heng finally looked at her more closely, receiving the business card and also took a glance at her car...

A wine-red BMW that was the exact same color as her coat...

It was clear she was fond of wine-red; this color was on her hair, her coat, and even her car...

[Deputy Director of Second Project Division at Gaoling Capital: Lin Ran]

This business card carried an aura of high-status...

Gu Heng, though being somewhat of an underdog, had no idea what Gaoling Capital was, but even from the knowledge acquired by watching TV dramas, he understood that generally, a deputy director was considered a senior executive.

```

No wonder the first instant I saw Lin Ran, aside from finding her beautiful, I also sensed an air of quality...

Top executives of big companies...

Genuine social elites, how could they lack temperament?

There’s a fundamental difference between them and people like He Jing and Lin Jiayun who rely solely on their looks like decorative vases...

While Gu Heng was lost in his wild thoughts, his phone rang with a call from Liu Wen.

"Mr. Gu, our 4S shop’s mechanic is here."

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng directed the camera towards the scratch once again...

The mechanic didn’t beat around the bush and after closely examining for half a minute, he spoke, "Judging from the video, the scratch isn’t severe, just damage to the paintwork. However, since your car is new, it’ll be quite expensive. Repainting it will probably cost about 8000 to 10,000 yuan.

But it’s not very clear in the video, and I’m not certain if there are other issues, so it would be best to come to the shop and have it checked in person."

Gu Heng wasn’t worried at all about the repair costs the mechanic mentioned; what concerned him was whether this issue would affect his ability to drive the Bentley home and show off. After all, some luxury cars require going back to the original manufacturer for repairs if they sustain damage. He promptly asked, "How long would the repair take, then?"

"If indeed there are only the problems currently visible, repainting at our 4S shop would only take an afternoon."

Reassured by this, Gu Heng suddenly handed his phone to Lin Ran who was standing idly by, "Here, do you want to talk to the mechanic? If you don’t trust it, you can also have the insurance company assess the damage."

"No need for that, no need," Lin Ran replied.

She wasn’t the superficial kind of woman who only recognized BBA (BMW, Benz, Audi). She understood the value of the brand new Bentley before her...

And she knew that 8000 to 10,000 yuan was already quite reasonable...

She promptly took out her phone from her handbag and said, "Let’s add each other on WeChat. How about I transfer the money to you through WeChat?"

When Gu Heng heard this, he glanced at Lin Ran’s perfect visage and nodded slightly...

After hearing from the mechanic that the repair would only take an afternoon, the sting Gu Heng felt had mostly dissipated. Now, to add a beautiful woman on WeChat, why not?

It wasn’t his fault for being infatuated...

Even though he was driving a Bentley, he was still an average person.

There was a world of difference between him and a bona fide social elite like Lin Ran.

Sometimes, the gap between people can’t be bridged by money alone; it requires time and the accumulation of various aspects...

Just like Lin Ran, without today’s incident, what were the chances that she would come into contact with him? At most, he would only have dealings with salespeople or network stars...

Gu Heng believed that with his advantages, he would definitely come into contact with even more impressive and high-level individuals in the future, but definitely not now.

This was the gap in levels.

With a ’ding’, a friend request with an adorable cat avatar, screen name "RAN", came through...

No sooner had Gu Heng accepted the request, Lin Ran promptly transferred 10,000 yuan, "Here’s 10,000 yuan. If it’s not enough to cover the repair costs, you can contact me directly. I’ll make up the difference right away.

If it’s more than enough, consider the excess as my apology to you."

She spoke, again bowing slightly towards Gu Heng with an apologetic expression...

A social elite truly is a social elite, even a simple apology from her mouth sounds so pleasant...

After receiving the money, Gu Heng nodded towards her but didn’t attempt to cozy up, instead he headed towards the car door...

People...

Should always have a sense of boundaries...

Although Gu Heng also had a bit of desire upon seeing her, pushing oneself forward eagerly could only lead to annoyance.
