"What's the matter?" Chen Lihua asked anxiously.

"Your ride for tomorrow has arrived!!!" All of them squealed at once.

​​

Chen Lihua couldn't believe her ears, Angel repeated the words for the second time.

Something came to Chen Lihua's mind.

'If my ride was normal and not too ordinary, they won't be here smiling at me like that, Longwei must have done something outrageous.'

Seeing her lost in thought, Liu Dongmei held her hand before dragging her off with them.

Outside Lady Chen Madam Liu and the rest were already there admiring the ride.

When Chen Lihua saw it with her eyes, she couldn't believe it because she was in shock.

The car they said was her ride was a car she didn't believe she would ever ride in because they were only twenty of them in the world because of its high cost, and the twenty (20) were all customized.

So you see, money was not the issue here, but power, authority, and identity, who you are!

"Can someone pinch me, so I can wake up from this dream?" Chen Lihua said, as she was still shocked, and couldn't believe her eyes.

Jennifer immediately pinches her since she was standing closest to her, and Chen Lihua hissed as she felt the pain.

"Am...Not dreaming, right?" She asked softly, to no one in particular.

"You are not dreaming, dear. This is Karlman King, the world's most expensive SUV," Lady Chen was all smiles when she answered.

Chen Lihua didn't know when she screamed and ran a lap around the car.

The car was so big. One of the bodyguards opened the car door for her, so she could take a good look at the interiors.

Like all things that claim to be world first-class, the King generated massive media attention when it was first introduced. With good reason, too: it's a custom SUV built on the chassis of a Ford F-550 that stands out for sheer size and angular, unprecedented shape. It's massive, bears some resemblance to Batman's Tumbler, it's absolutely outrageous on the inside. It comes with a record-setting price both for the base and the upgraded version.

It's not that the King is not luxurious enough, because it is. With the massive volume of interior space, it comes with a partition that separates the owner from the mere mortal driving him around. Having a pop-up TV screen, a fridge with champagne, coffee machine, champagne flutes, and coffee cups, a PlayStation 4, starry roof, colored LEDs throughout, and a variety of the finest leathers used for the upholstery.

This adds to the final price and the weight of the vehicle, further downing performance. With the standard 6.8-liter V10 engine from the F-550 that delivers around 420 hp, the King can reach a top speed of about 136 mph (220 kph), but it drops down to a mere 87 mph (140 kph) if you opt for bullet-proofing. The King is heavy as it is, but it goes up to 13,230 pounds (6,000 kg) if you think you could somehow end up getting shot at and want protection.

The one Liu Longwei got had bulletproof, and this is to give you an idea of the amount he might have spent when purchasing the car.

Karlmann King was created to be a rolling work of art by Italian designer Luciano D'Ambrosio. The King is hand-built in Italy with financing from the Beijing-based International Automotive Technologies. Over 1,800 people work on one of these SUVs for the base model, and it takes them up to 15 months to complete the project.

So with this, you see why Karlmann King is the world's most expensive SUV?

Chen Lihua's mouth was agape in shock as she stared at the interior decors of the car.

'Is this a car?' She asked herself because the interior of the car was something else. It was too luxurious to be used for a car.

Chen Lihua felt that if she takes a step into this car, she might not want to come out again, because the car was too beautiful.

Her friends shrieked in shock when they saw the interior of the car.

"What the f**k!" Jennifer literally screamed absentmindedly without taking into consideration of her surroundings, because she was too shocked to do so.

"Bring as many Champagne bottles you can lay your hands on," Madam Liu happily instructed the servants.

Chen Lihua stepped into the car as her eyes glanced through the entire interior. Her eyes scanned everything it met.

It was as if she didn't want to miss any tiny detail the car had.

There was a joyous celebration in the house.

Chen Lihua felt so touched and emotional that she didn't know when tears started rolling down her cheeks.

"Lihua, are you crying?" Liu Huiling asked in surprise.

Liu Huiling's question made everyone's gaze to be focused on Chen Lihua.

"My dear, don't cry, okay," Madam Liu said with a doting voice.

"Don't worry about her. Those are tears of joy," Lady Chen said happily.

It was then that Chen Lihua noticed the tears on her cheeks, so she sniffed and wiped them off.

"Awwwnnn. Lily, don't cry, okay?" Caro said with a smile.

"Am not crying," Chen Lihua denied, but more tears rolled down her cheeks in the process.

And as Chen Lihua couldn't control her emotions, she burst into tears. They were really tears of joy.

She didn't believe that in this life, a man could treat her so well.

She didn't believe in marriage because she had seen how her parent's married life turned out. Not only her parents.

Stories she heard from her friends, the stories she saw on the news, and from happenings around the world.

When her mother told her about her marriage with Liu Longwei, she didn't agree at first.

And when she agreed, she didn't do it because she really wanted to get married, but just because of her mother, who told her about the Chen Company merging with the Liu company. So she decided to get married to Liu Longwei.

Had it been she believed in marriage, she wouldn't have just got into that relationship with Liu Longwei just like that.

But because she didn't believe in it, she decided to casually go into that relationship with him, with the mindset that 'If things worked out, then it worked. And if it didn't work, then it just didn't work'.

So that's why Liu Longwei seemed to be the only one putting in any effort into their relationship.
