2:17 PM - Parking Lot
The Ferrari SF90 crouched among Honda Civics like a panther napping with kittens. Ye Chen traced the prancing horse emblem on his key fob—its obsidian finish mirroring his dazed expression.
"First gear for mortals," he muttered, sliding into the carbon-fiber bucket seat. The ignition roar split the humid air, scattering pigeons and freshman gawkers alike.

3:02 PM - Dorm 307
Three roommates huddled around a phone like archaeologists deciphering hieroglyphs.
"Liu swears it's a Ferrari SF90!" Pudgy Li jabbed at the blurry photo. "Look at those brake calipers—custom red! That's half a Lambo's price right there!"
Wei Liang snorted. "Probably so sugar daddy's midlife crisis mobile."
The door burst open. Zhou Haoran leaned against the fra, his knockoff Gucci belt buckle strategically angled to catch the light. "Heard you peasants found my ride."
Silence.
"My Porsche 718," he clarified, buffing counterfeit Tom Ford sunglasses. "Cost Daddy a cool mil. Carbon fiber package, PDK transmission—not that you'd understand."

Ye Chen leaned against his bunk, the SF90 key digging into his palm. "Funny, Liu said it was a Ferrari."
Zhou's smile froze. "I-I ant my weekend car! The 718's just for campus."
3:17 PM - The Reveal
Liu's follow-up text detonated the chat—a crystal-clear shot of the SF90's scissor doors mid-lift, Ye Chen's silhouette visible through the windshield.
"Wait," Wei squinted. "That's Ye's stupid ani hoodie!"
Four heads swiveled. Ye dangled the key fob like a forbidden artifact. "Coffee run, anyone?"
Zhou's face cycled through emotions like a slot machine—denial, rage, bargain—before settling on corpse-gray. His voice cracked. "Y-you rented it, right? Like those Instagram posers?"
"Owned it," Ye corrected, tossing the keys. The fob's prancing horse logo left a temporary dent in Zhou's palm. "Wanna hear her purr?"

Ye idled past Zhou's actual ride—a secondhand Porsche 718 with "BABY ON BOARD" stickers and a mismatched fender. The ga's cara snapped automatically:
