"It’s convenient," Su Xuan said, turning off the engine. "Go ahead, Brother Cen."
"We’ve already set the date for the race. It’s tomorrow at nine in the morning. Brother Su, the race will be at Xuanghe Racing Track. I’m sending you the location now. If you’re free, you might want to head over to the track beforehand to familiarize yourself with it."
After hanging up, Cen Haonan sent Su Xuan the location. He also sent a ssage letting Su Xuan know that the Xuanghe Racing Track would be open until midnight and that he could just give Cen Haonan’s na to put it on his tab.
Su Xuan planned to check out the racing track after finishing his deliveries. Cen Haonan had already helped him out several tis, and this race was directly linked to his friend’s future career. He had to do everything possible to help Cen Haonan win.

"Great news! Great news! Shuxin Resort opens tomorrow! Located at the foothills of West Mountain, nestled in a vast forest, the resort offers a natural oxygen bar and hot springs, making it a sanctuary for revitalizing the body and soul..."
While Su Xuan was driving, this advertisent would occasionally play on the car radio. And the Emperor Card that Niu Dalei had given him was from that very Shuxin Resort.
Dalei, give it your all! I’ll do my best to be there tomorrow and show my support!
A satisfied smile touched Su Xuan’s lips. He truly hoped his friends would all beco successful. It would benefit him, too.
However, many people’s worldviews are strange. They can accept the failure of those around them, but they can’t stand it when soone close to them becos more successful. It makes them feel defeated, envious, and resentful of the heavens’ unfairness. Deep down, they know that the better those around them do, the better it is for them as well, but they just can’t control those bizarre emotions.

By the ti he finished his deliveries, it was already after five in the afternoon. Su Xuan switched the Charman King for the Koenigsegg he hadn’t driven in a long ti. He was planning to head to Xuanghe Racing Track to familiarize himself with the course when he suddenly received a call from Tian Cheng.
"Master, can you take to the Jingxin Hotel for so fun? Hehe!" Tian Cheng giggled over the phone.
Su Xuan was taken aback.
This girl is up to no good. What kind of fun can a lone man and woman have in a hotel? Fun with each other?
He imdiately joked, "No way. I’m afraid you won’t take responsibility for afterward."
There was a pause on the other end, as if Tian Cheng was processing his words, before she burst into laughter. "Don’t be scared, Master. Afterward, I’ll be sure to smoke a cigarette and swear to cherish you for life!"
"You’re getting more and more improper," Su Xuan said, exasperated.
"You were the one who started it, Master," she pouted.
"Are you going to that hotel for sothing specific?" Su Xuan asked.
"Yeah. It’s a classmate’s birthday party tonight. She invited and said we all had to bring our boyfriends. But where would I get a boyfriend? So, I thought of you, Master."
"That sounds boring. I’m not going."
"Please, Master!" Tian Cheng pleaded. "The place is in Shijing District, it’s practically outside the city. It’s so far! If the party ends late, I’m a little scared to go ho by myself. Please co with !"
"Shijing District?"
Xuanghe Racing Track happened to be in Shijing District. Since Su Xuan was already heading that way, it was on his route. Besides, he hadn’t eaten dinner yet, so this was a good chance to snag a free al.
"Where are you now? I’ll co pick you up," he said.
"I knew you were the best, Master!" Tian Cheng cheered. "I’m at ho. I’ll head to the community entrance to wait for you."
Su Xuan drove off to pick her up. When he reached the entrance to her residential community, despite having seen many beautiful won, he was still struck by the sight of her.
Tian Cheng wore light makeup and a refreshing new hairstyle, her long hair topped with a blue ribbon butterfly. She wore the white long dress she had bought from Caranda. Standing gracefully at the community entrance, she looked like a little fairy who had just descended to the mortal realm in the evening breeze.
When she saw Su Xuan’s Koenigsegg arrive, the little fairy happily floated into the car. Her fragrance imdiately filled the vehicle, a refreshing and pleasant scent that seed almost otherworldly.
"Not bad. You look really pretty," Su Xuan said with a smile, a rare complint from him.
"Really?" Tian Cheng cupped her face. "I spent two hours on this makeup!"
"I an the clothes from Caranda look really good."
Tian Cheng glared. Then, she clenched her little fist and gently punched his arm. "You’re so annoying!"
"Fasten your seatbelt! We’re off!"
Su Xuan stepped on the gas, and the Koenigsegg headed toward Shijing District.
On the way, Tian Cheng said, "Master, your car is amazing. I’m definitely going to look so good this ti."
"It cost a hundred million!"
"It’s a pity your taste in clothes isn’t great. It doesn’t quite match this car."
Su Xuan shot her a look. "I know you’re trying to take a dig at , but you completely missed the mark!"
Holding the steering wheel with one hand, he patted his clothes proudly.
"Designed by Caranda’s head designer himself. Custom-made! The only set of its kind in the entire world! Humph!"
That’s right. When he had swapped cars, he had intentionally changed into the custom-tailored outfit Daniel had delivered that morning. Right now, he practically oozed nobility and luxury.
「」
More than two hours later, they finally arrived at a restaurant in Shijing District. They had been caught in the evening rush hour and stuck in traffic the whole way.
"You go in first. I’ll park the car."
Su Xuan dropped Tian Cheng off at the entrance and drove off to find a parking spot. However, the hotel’s parking lot was completely full. He circled for several minutes without spotting a single open space. He had no choice but to keep waiting.
「」
"Tian Cheng is here!"
"Wow, Tian Cheng, you look so beautiful today!"
"Especially that dress, it’s so ethereal!"
"You’re kind of stealing the show!"
"It’s our class president’s birthday today, you know!"
As soon as Tian Cheng entered the private room, several girls greeted her enthusiastically, showering her with complints that she was happy to hear. Most of them had also brought their boyfriends, all of whom couldn’t help but stare at Tian Cheng.
"What are you looking at?" a girl nad Chang Sasha hissed, secretly stomping on her boyfriend’s foot. "Thinking of hitting on her? She’s just unemployed, scamming guys like you on her livestreams. She’s basically a club hostess—no class at all. I’m a high-level professional, way out of her league. If you look at her again, we’re done!"
Her boyfriend reluctantly tore his eyes away.
Chang Sasha then turned to Tian Cheng. "Well, hello there, our great beauty Tian Cheng! Why didn’t you bring your boyfriend?"
I’m stuck trying to find a damn parking spot! Otherwise, would you even have a chance to talk?
