Hearing this, Bai Yue hesitated for a moment before saying, "If it weren’t for you, I would’ve transferred to Capital City during my first year of high school. My parents work there, and that’s where my new home is."

Wu Yun was a little stunned. ’Because of me? Did I really have that much charm back in high school?’

Perhaps sensing his confusion, Bai Yue continued, "The reason I gave you last night was only part of it. The truth is, I’ve had a crush on you ever since high school."

On the way, the two chatted about all sorts of amusing stories from their high school days. Although Wu Yun had forgotten many of them, his memories of things involving Bai Yue were still crystal clear.

.......

At the airport security checkpoint, Bai Yue hugged Wu Yun tightly and refused to let go.

"Alright, alright! I promise, I’ll fly to Capital City to see you whenever I have time. And don’t you forget your promise!" Wu Yun said, looking down at Bai Yue’s face.

While they were waiting, Bai Yue had learned that Wu Yun won the lottery and started a company. Because of this, she was supportive of his new venture and didn’t insist that he visit her in Capital City every week or month.

"You don’t have to come, of course," Bai Yue said with a smile. "As long as you’re not afraid of me cheating on you."

"I trust you!" Wu Yun lowered his head and gave Bai Yue a quick kiss on the lips. Tasting her lipstick, he said, "You should get going. The plane is about to take off!"

Hearing the broadcast announcement for her flight to begin boarding, Bai Yue reluctantly let go. With her small bag on her back, she kept looking over her shoulder as she walked away.

Wu Yun smiled and waved at her, watching until she disappeared through the boarding gate.

Instead of looking for Wu Ying and Jiang Xinyi, Wu Yun called a DiDi and headed straight back to Jingyang.

A few days passed just like that. During the day, Wu Yun would accompany Qi Fei to the driving school to practice, listening to her endless stream of complaints: some guy was sending her love letters again, another was trying to act like a big shot around her, and her dad’s friend’s son, Wang Xingyu, was pestering her to go out with him every single day...

At night, he would video chat with Bai Yue while working on his plans for the bike-sharing project. He’d occasionally flirt with Wu Ying and Jiang Xinyi, asking how the company was doing on the side. He was the very picture of a time management master.

Wu Yun had to admire that legendary guy from the news who was dating over a dozen women at once. ’Was he an octopus or something? How could anyone possibly manage all that?’

「July 20th.」

If you had to name the busiest government agency during summer vacation, Wu Yun would definitely say it was the DMV.

Standing in the lobby, as far as the eye could see, the place was filled with eighteen and nineteen-year-old students there to take their driving tests.

Fortunately, his number was near the front of the queue, so he only had to wait for about an hour. He then passed the road test with flying colors, much to the examiner’s surprise.

Back at the main testing center, the staff quickly set him up for the final written exam, which he also passed with ease. Finally, he had the black certificate he had been waiting for in his hands.

He snapped a photo of it and posted it online with the caption: "Rookie pro, hitting the road!"

"President Wu, you’re a badass! Buying a Lamborghini right after getting your license!" Lin Xue, the salesperson from Ferrari, commented below.

"President Wu, your black card has been issued. If you could please provide us with your address, we’ll have it delivered to you," commented the manager from the bank where he had deposited his lottery winnings.

"Wow, you’re driving a Lamborghini right after getting your license! I’m so torn... I’m scared, but I also really want a ride," chimed in Wen Meng, the part-time car model who had added him on WeChat but had never spoken to him before.

Qi Fei: "So jealous of you! At least my instructor finally stopped yelling at me today!"

.........

Just as Wu Yun was about to reply to each message, his phone rang.

It was Qiao Xin, the Lamborghini salesman.

"Mr. Wu, hello! Your Lamborghini has arrived at the dealership. Would you like to come in for the handover ceremony, or should we have it delivered to your location?"

Of course he was going to ask for delivery. "Hello, I’m in Jingyang right now. Just have it delivered to the main entrance of Huilu International in the city. Oh, and make sure to fill up the tank. The last thing I want is to go looking for a gas station the second I get the car."

This Bull drank 98-octane gasoline, and finding its "fodder" wasn’t exactly easy in a third- or fourth-tier city like Jingyang.

"No problem. We estimate it will arrive in about two hours." Qiao Xin waited for Wu Yun to hang up first before ending the call.

Wu Yun, who hadn’t even been this excited about getting his license, pumped his fist in the air. The people nearby saw the license in his hand and simply assumed he was overjoyed about passing his test.

Wu Yun’s fingers flew across his phone screen as he typed: "Hey beautiful, I’m taking you for a spin tonight!"

After a moment, he received a voice message from Qi Fei. "You have some nerve! You’re in for it tonight! Huh? Wait a minute, didn’t you just get your license? Where’d you get a car? Don’t tell me your little bull is here?"

Another voice message followed. "Brother Yuuun~ Your little sis wants to take your little baby for a spin tonight." Her voice was so sickly sweet it gave Wu Yun goosebumps.

Not daring to let this crazy driver run wild, Wu Yun quickly apologized. "My apologies, senpai! I was wrong! My treat tonight! I’ll come pick you up after you finish practice this afternoon."

At noon, Wu Yun scarfed down some takeout for lunch, then picked up his phone to wait. He was filled with the same breathless anticipation he’d felt as a child waiting for a toy his grandparents had promised to buy him.

The wait felt endless.

An hour later, Wu Yun got a call from Qiao Xin.

"Mr. Wu, we’ve arrived at the location you sent," Qiao Xin’s voice said through the phone.

"Give me a few minutes, I’ll be right there." Wu Yun excitedly slipped on his flip-flops and rushed out the door.

Two in the afternoon was the hottest time of day, but the scorching heat couldn’t deter the crowd of curious onlookers.

Some passing drivers even slowed down deliberately to stare at the black Lamborghini supercar gleaming on the flatbed truck under the sun.

A few pedestrians even took out their phones to take pictures.

Jingyang was a small city. Although it had its share of wealthy people, a supercar like a Lamborghini was still an incredibly rare sight.

The flatbed truck parked by the side of the road, and the driver began to slowly lower the ramp to the ground.

When Wu Yun arrived, he saw the truck driver carefully unstrapping the tires of his Bull.

Wu Yun gazed at the Big Black Bull that was now his, his heart pounding with excitement.

"Excuse me, coming through!" Wu Yun squeezed through the crowd of onlookers.

Seeing Wu Yun, Qiao Xin hurried over to greet him. "Mr. Wu, please inspect the vehicle and make sure everything is in order."

Thanks to the enhancement from his Master Level Driving experience, Wu Yun knew a great deal about cars and exactly what to check for.

Qiao Xin watched as Wu Yun skillfully performed a basic inspection of the car before pulling open the scissor door and sliding into the driver’s seat.

Without even glancing at the manual, Wu Yun knew the function of every button. He expertly pressed the ignition, and the Bull beneath him let out a furious roar.

Qiao Xin had been about to explain the controls, but seeing how proficient Wu Yun was, he simply assumed that a kid from a wealthy family like him must have driven one before. So, he just stood by the door and watched Wu Yun check over the car.
