Chapter 55: The Master Card!

As expected of the Ice Queen, it truly is difficult to melt her cold heart!

After hearing the system notification, Lin Fan’s mood did not improve in the slightest.

After all this time, his wealth had only accumulated to a little over sixty million, still a long way from one hundred million. Becoming a billionaire would take quite some time yet.

The others saw his indifferent expression and were all utterly baffled.

He had spent nearly a hundred million to win the favor and affection of two goddesses, yet remained so calm. Just how wealthy was he?

These heirs, when they spent ten or twenty million, could be excited for days. Yet Lin Fan had burned through over eighty million and didn’t seem happy at all. Was it because he thought he spent too little?

It really was too little!

Lin Fan wished he could buy out the entire dealership and gift it to Su Xuanmo, but if he did, she would probably be displeased.

“By the way, cousin, why did he give you a sports car?” Ouyang Qi, after getting the car keys from her brother, asked curiously.

“I mentioned I wanted to race later for a bit of fun, so he gave it to me...,” Su Xuanmo replied coolly.

“Wow! He treats you so well, he’s the ultimate simp!” Ouyang Qi blurted out.

But the next second, she quickly turned to Lin Fan, apologizing, “Sorry, I misspoke. Don’t mind me. What I meant was, you’re really good to my cousin. Do you want to marry her? I could help brainstorm for you...”

Lin Fan didn’t care at all.

“You’re right, I really am a simp. I love spending money on goddesses like Su Xuanmo—the more I spend, the happier I am!” Lin Fan said with a broad grin.

“You have such a kink? Then you can lavish me instead, or I could even be your lover,” Ouyang Qi draped her arm over Lin Fan’s shoulder, gazing at him with starry eyes, her words dripping with flirtation.

“Ouyang Qi, you’re just disgusting.”

Su Xuanmo couldn’t listen anymore—this was outright poaching!

For her, she actually preferred this straightforward way of courting women with money. Given her status, she disliked flowery words and preferred substance.

Substance, after all, meant a willingness to spend money on a woman.

Ouyang Qi pouted, then changed the topic: “Lin Fan, are you joining the race too? If you win first place, there’s a ten-million prize... But for you, ten million is probably nothing, right?”

“It’s all about participating. I just want to have some fun. My driving skills are pretty poor, so I doubt I’ll win first place. I heard there are amateur racers taking part,” Lin Fan replied modestly.

“Amateur racers have separate rewards. That ten million is for thrill-seeking enthusiasts like us; the routes are different. The first group of amateur racers will drive on a closed provincial road, while we’ll race on the highway...”

After listening to Ouyang Qi’s explanation, Lin Fan mused inwardly—wealthy people really know how to play. Today had truly broadened his horizons.

After speaking, Ouyang Qi leaned in and whispered in his ear, “My cousin loves excitement. If you join the first group and win first place on the provincial road, it might boost her favorability. Then you could take her on drives and races whenever you want.”

“Is that so... Well then, I’ll compete with the amateur racers,” Lin Fan’s interest was piqued.

Hearing this, Ouyang Xiaojun and Su Xuanmo objected.

“Better not. The amateur race route and time are both much longer, and there’s some danger. If something happens, I can’t bear the responsibility!”

“That’s right! Let’s just have fun on the highway and experience the thrill of racing.”

Everyone has a rebellious streak.

Lin Fan was no exception.

He wanted to prove himself. More importantly, Ouyang Qi’s encouragement made him eager to win Su Xuanmo’s favor.

Another reason was his confidence in securing first place.

Because the system shop had an item called the ‘Master Card’, which allowed him to acquire a professional, master-level skill for two hours.

If he was to race, using the ‘Master Card’ would give him the championship-level skills of a professional driver.

Beating amateur racers would be no trouble at all.

“It’s fine, just for fun. I’m not expecting to win first place anyway,” Lin Fan said with a goofy smile.

Seeing his insistence, Su Xuanmo and the others said nothing more.

Half an hour later.

The race was about to begin. Lin Fan, Su Xuanmo, and the others went out to the lawn to register.

Since it wasn’t a professional event, the second group was basically just a street race—the route was an unfinished highway, about forty kilometers, enough for a ten or twenty minute sprint.

The first group, comprised of amateur racers and other enthusiasts, would race on a nearly abandoned provincial road outside the city.

After registering, Lin Fan was placed at the end by the organizers, when they learned he was only here for fun.

“Sigh, Lin Fan, are you really planning to take that Mercedes GLC on the provincial road? Aren’t you worried about flipping over?”

“Maybe you should wear racing gear, just to be safe...”

Ouyang Qi approached Lin Fan again, concern evident in her voice.

Her favorability toward Lin Fan had reached seventy, bordering on secret admiration—just short of confessing outright.

And with Lin Fan gifting perfume first, then a million-dollar sports car, she wished she could become his accessory and stay by his side, enjoying the good life without a care.

As she was speaking, a thunderous roar suddenly erupted from the crowd.

Then came cheers and wild shouts.

“Oh my god! Am I seeing things? That’s the Bugatti Son of the Night!”

“That car is actually here in Hangzhou! I thought it was somewhere else—who’s the young master that owns it? So extravagant!”

Lin Fan, Ouyang Qi, and the others made their way to the parking lot, where they saw a stunning beauty step out of the car, her figure exquisite, her face breathtaking. She stood by the car door, looking around as if waiting for someone.

“The owner is actually a woman? Am I seeing this right? Or is she just the driver?”

“Is the real owner among us? I never thought the Son of the Night would appear here tonight—so much prestige! Boss Ou must have incredible connections to invite the owner of the Son of the Night!”

Everyone present was left speechless, drooling over the dazzling, flamboyant supercar.

They crowded around the Son of the Night, admiring the rare, limited-edition supercar as if on pilgrimage.

Everyone was speculating about the true owner.

Lei Hao and his friends were more shocked than anyone else.

They hadn’t expected someone to actually bring the Son of the Night here!

Su Xuanmo was equally incredulous as she looked at Lin Fan. She had no idea he owned this car; when he mentioned earlier that the Son of the Night was parked in his garage, she realized the rumors were true.

But seeing it in person still left her deeply amazed.

Her passion for supercars surpassed even her love for antique paintings; her eyes gleamed with excitement.

Everyone felt the same.
