The next morning.
Gu Bai was lying on his desk in the large lecture hall, catching up on sleep.
As the saying goes, a brief parting is sweeter than a honeymoon. Last night, Qi Man transford into a juicer and squeezed him dry without leaving a drop. This morning, Qi Man was energetic and glowing.
As for himself, he was miserable, with a sore waist and back, and entirely lacking in spirit.
This was an acting class, which not only acting majors took but also directing students like himself. This was why the lecture hall was packed, with hardly any empty seats remaining.
"White Pieces, what did you do last night? The class is 160 minutes long, and you slept for 160 minutes. You really didn’t give Teacher Sun any face at all."
As soon as the class ended, Deng Bo, sitting next to Gu Bai, couldn’t help but speak to him.
As for the Teacher Sun he ntioned, he was one of the guest lecturers at Shanghai Theatre Academy and a highly respected veteran actor in the entertainnt industry. He only taught a few classes each sester, so whenever he had a class, almost no one would miss it. People like Gu Bai, who ca just to sleep, were practically unheard of.
Gu Bai rubbed his back and sighed softly.
"I’ll stay in the dorm for a few days. I’m not used to the bed and didn’t sleep well."
As a man,
Never admit defeat.
Even in front of his best friends.
Gu Bai certainly wouldn’t say he was exhausted by Qi Man last night, so he made up a random excuse.
"Impressive! Can’t get used to living in a mansion worth over a hundred million, so you’re back to living in a dorm for 400 a month—rich people really know how to have fun!"
The world only knows the joy of the rich, but who understands the suffering of the rich? Gu Bai could only shake his head and swallow his bitterness.
He took out his phone and saw several missed calls.
Earlier, he was too sleepy and didn’t want to be disturbed, so he set the phone to vibrate. However, he slept so deeply that the calls didn’t wake him.
Gu Bai imdiately redialed one of the numbers.
Once connected, an urgent voice ca through.
"Is this Mr. Gu?"
"It’s , who’s this?"
"I’m the driver from the transportation company. My surna is Chen. Your car has arrived, and it’s at the school gate. Please hurry, or the traffic police will forcibly tow it away!"
Hearing the anxious tone on the phone, Gu Bai was montarily stunned, then quickly reacted.
"Wait there, I’m coming right away."
After saying that, he imdiately hung up and headed towards the school gate with Deng Bo.
Being dragged along by Gu Bai, Deng Bo looked utterly confused.
"White Pieces, what’s going on?"
"My car has arrived, but I missed several calls just now. The people from the transportation company seem to be in trouble; I need to get there quickly."
After saying that, he picked up his pace.
Hearing that "Poison" had arrived, Deng Bo was equally excited and followed him.
.............
At the school gate.
Several buff middle-aged n were standing in front of a tow truck, blocking a large cargo truck from being towed away.
"Officer, please wait a mont. My client just called, and once I deliver the goods, I’ll accept any fine you impose. This truck can’t be towed. What’s inside is so valuable that even selling myself wouldn’t cover the cost!"
The driver was pleading with the traffic police.
"This large truck is severely obstructing normal traffic, and it’s at the school entrance. If you continue to obstruct law enforcent, I’ll have to take compulsory asures!"
But the traffic police wasn’t buying it and sternly warned the driver.
A number of students from Shanghai Theatre Academy and curious onlookers had already gathered.
At this mont, Gu Bai finally arrived with Deng Bo in tow.
Seeing Gu Bai, and after checking his details on his phone, the driver nad Chen was almost moved to tears.
"Mr. Gu, you’re finally here. Any later, and I’d have to kneel to plead with the officer."
Walking up to the driver surnad Chen, Gu Bai offered an apologetic smile.
"I’m really sorry; I missed your calls earlier."
He then turned to the traffic police and said, "Officer, this is entirely my fault. I’ll cover all the fines, towing fees, and any related compensations later."
Looking at Gu Bai, who was smiling, handso, gentle, and polite, with an indescribable aura, the traffic police took a liking to him.
However, he still maintained a serious tone: "You need to retrieve the goods quickly, and this truck definitely has to be towed. Tell them to pick it up at the police station later."
"Thank you, officer."
Gu Bai thanked him, then turned to the driver surnad Chen.
"Master Chen, please open it up and retrieve the car. I’ll contact your company later; this is my responsibility, and I’ll bear all compensations alone."
The driver also smiled and said it was alright, imdiately instructing the transport workers to open the truck door.
They were well aware of what was inside the truck, and the general manager had warned them repeatedly during the journey that there couldn’t be the slightest mistake. Inside was a super luxury car valued at 9000W. He wasn’t exaggerating when he said he couldn’t afford to pay for it even if he sold himself.
As for Gu Bai as the buyer of this car, his identity must be extraordinary. The fact that he humbled himself to explain was already touching, so they wouldn’t dare to expect him to compensate.
The surrounding crowd of onlookers also parted, all eagerly watching the truck door about to open.
They heard the driver’s words clearly while they were watching, and now they were quietly curious to see the car in person.
So students who had co over from Shanghai Theatre Academy also began to discuss.
"What’s going on? Why are there so many people at the school gate?"
The speaker was a student who had just arrived.
"We’re not sure either. It seems there’s a large cargo truck parked at the gate, and the traffic police ca to tow it. Those guys are blocking it, saying there’s sothing valuable inside."
"Didn’t you see Gu Bai co over? Didn’t he just say that what’s in the truck is his?"
"Then it must really be valuable. I’ve seen her Lamborghini parked there every day before, and then it changed to a Porsche 918. I wonder what kind of car it is this ti?"
"Who knows, we’ll find out soon."
With a bang, the truck door opened.
Revealing the mysterious cargo inside.
As black as ink, without a trace of impurity, it lay quietly in the cargo hold like a fighter jet ready to take off.
The onlookers finally witnessed the full appearance of the "Poison," with exclamations of awe rising one after another.
One must admit, the Poison was indeed incredibly handso.
So much so that anyone who saw it imdiately knew it was invaluable.
This was also Lamborghini Company’s intention—if it weren’t stylish, who would spend millions of US dollars on this big toy?
Driving a supercar, indeed,
Isn’t it all about showing off?
