Chapter 62: Activating the Extravagant Battle Car
Young Master Guo stood anxiously and fearfully at the entrance of the city central hospital. Just then, a taxi stopped in front of him, and a man wearing a black coat stepped out.
“Big Brother!” Young Master Guo called out, straightened his clothes, and quickly walked toward him.
The man in the coat was Guo Huai, Young Master Guo’s older brother. Guo Huai looked coldly at his useless younger brother, then said indifferently, “First take me to see Dad. As for your issues, we’ll talk after this matter is over.”
Young Master Guo had always been afraid of his older brother since childhood. Now that his brother had worked as a mercenary abroad for several years, his aura felt even more intimidating. Young Master Guo didn’t dare look his brother in the eyes and timidly said, “Brother, Dad is in the ICU now.”
Guo Huai grunted in acknowledgment, then followed Young Master Guo into the hospital. They walked straight to the glass window outside the ICU. Looking at his father lying on the bed with various small tubes inserted all over his body, Guo Huai’s fists made cracking sounds.
“What exactly happened?” Guo Huai asked coldly, his face expressionless and icy.
Young Master Guo didn’t dare hide anything, exaggerating the events as he spoke. Finally, he said, “Brother, it’s all that bastard Tang Chen’s fault. He not only hit Dad but also caused Dad to lose his position. You must take revenge for me and Dad.”
Guo Huai listened quietly to his brother’s words, then said, “I will handle the revenge. You stay here at the hospital and obediently take care of Dad. If there’s any change in Dad’s condition, report to me immediately.”
Young Master Guo nodded nervously and said, “Don’t worry, Big Brother, I understand.”
Guo Huai grunted again, his eyes turning cold. He thought to himself, “Tang Chen, is it? I swear I will never coexist peacefully with you!”
Early the next morning, Tang Chen and Yang Mi woke up at the same time. The young girl lazily opened her eyes, glanced at Tang Chen lying beside her, and a smile curled at the corner of her mouth.
But at that moment, Tang Chen’s big hand slid directly onto her slender waist. His mouth moved close; this beast wanted to indulge in lust so early in the morning.
“No, you haven’t brushed your teeth yet. Your mouth stinks,” Yang Mi said with a laugh, pushing Tang Chen away. This guy’s endurance was too strong; if she let him kiss her again, it would probably take over an hour to end.
Tang Chen laughed heartily, then pulled Yang Mi close so her body pressed against his, saying with a smile, “How dare you dislike your husband’s smelly mouth? There’s no justice in this world.”
Yang Mi playfully stuck out her tongue and gave his chest a light punch. Her smile, in Tang Chen’s eyes, seemed almost like she was teasing him.
So Tang Chen’s little buddy immediately stood up in protest. Just as he was about to do something, his phone rang at an inopportune time.
“Dammit, don’t they know that a moment of spring fragrance is worth a fortune? Which idiot is calling to disturb this Young Master?” Tang Chen grumbled as he reached his hand out from under the covers to pick up the phone.
Yang Mi blushed at his words, pushed him, and buried her head in Tang Chen’s broad chest, saying, “Stop talking nonsense. Answer the phone, someone probably needs you.”
Tang Chen grunted, saw it was an unfamiliar number, and answered directly, “Hey, which clueless person is disturbing this Young Master’s sweet dreams?”
A man’s voice came from the other end, nervously saying, “Young Master Tang, it’s me, Zhang Xin from Swan Lake Throne. Did I disturb your sleep?”
The employees of Swan Lake Throne looked at their general manager in surprise; they had never seen their manager speak to someone so politely. But as soon as they heard the name Young Master Tang from their manager, they immediately understood—this was the big spender who bought twenty-three villas!
Tang Chen remembered and said, “Oh, Manager Zhang. What is it? Not enough for the renovation costs? No problem, this Young Master will transfer tens of millions more to you.”
“No, no, it’s enough, it’s more than enough,” Zhang Xin quickly exclaimed while wiping cold sweat from his face. Even after not seeing him for so long, Young Master Tang was still this extravagant.
“That’s good, then what do you need from me?” Tang Chen asked curiously.
Zhang Xin explained, “It’s like this, Young Master Tang. I’ve already arranged for the best renovation workers to finish decorating your twenty-three villas. Could you find some time to come and inspect them?”
“So fast?” Tang Chen was slightly stunned. Renovating twenty-three villas this quickly—this Zhang Xin was quite efficient.
“Alright then, it’s the weekend today. I’ll bring my woman along to take a look,” Tang Chen agreed. Since it was the weekend and he had nothing else to do, he might as well go see them.
“Great, I’ll make arrangements right away. Sorry to disturb you, Young Master Tang,” Zhang Xin said respectfully, then hung up. He turned to his employees and said, “Hurry up, go put up the banner prepared for Young Master Tang. Young Master Tang will be here soon!”
“Yes, yes.” Knowing that the big client was coming, the employees quickly got busy.
Just then, Zhang Xin’s mobile phone rang. When he answered, he found it was his boss calling. He quickly answered, saying, “Hello, Boss? What? Yes, Young Master Tang said he’ll come to look today. You’re coming too? Alright, I understand.”
Leaving aside the bustle on Zhang Xin’s side, after Tang Chen hung up, Yang Mi curiously lifted her head, tilting her little face to look at him, and asked, “Tang Chen, I heard on the phone you’re going to some villa? Did you buy a villa?”
Tang Chen grinned nonchalantly and said, “Yes, I was bored so I bought twenty-three villas. Your parents can come live there later.”
Although Yang Mi knew Tang Chen was generous, she never imagined he would be this extravagant—buying twenty-three villas out of boredom. Good heavens, her husband seemed way too rich.
Seeing Yang Mi about to ask more, Tang Chen reached out and gave her butt a light slap, saying, “Alright now, no more questions. Hurry up and get dressed. Your husband will take you to see our new home. I’ll go downstairs to get the car ready first.”
Yang Mi muttered under her breath “pervert,” then, with her charming little face blushing, began to put on her clothes. Tang Chen swiftly dressed and went downstairs.
“System, this Young Master wants to activate the Extravagant Battle Car now.” Tang Chen walked into the yard downstairs and, seeing no one around, spoke to the System.
System: “Respected Host, this System is at your disposal. You can activate it anytime you want. Please take out the Extravagant Battle Car model, insert the key, and shout: ‘My Invincible Battle Car, appear!’ That’s all.”
Tang Chen was a bit dissatisfied and said, “System, do I have to shout? Last time when I used the Invincible Black Stockings you made me chant some spell. If I shout now, I’ll wake up all the neighbors. Don’t you think this kind of slogan is way too cringey?”
System: “As you wish. You don’t have to shout. This System won’t force you.”
Tang Chen’s lip twitched. This jerk was totally forcing him, wasn’t it? Whatever, for the sake of showing off, cringey it is—it’s not like he hadn’t done plenty of cringey things before.
Tang Chen took out the battle car model, inserted the key, then lifted the car model and shouted loudly, “My Invincible Battle Car, appear!”
“Ding! Host activated the Extravagant Battle Car. Virtual Battle Car System initializing.”
“Ding! Countdown to activation: five, four, three, two, one. Extravagant Battle Car, make your entrance!”
Whoosh!
A golden light suddenly flashed before Tang Chen’s eyes. The glare made him immediately cover his eyes, and the battle car model in his hand fell to the ground. Crunching sounds followed continuously, and as the light faded, the Extravagant Battle Car finally appeared.
Tang Chen stared dumbfounded at the Extravagant Battle Car in front of him—it looked exactly the same as what he had seen in his mind: a sleek, cool black body, overall simply perfect. Tang Chen felt a bit incredulous that such an awesomely flashy and domineering car would be his ride from now on. It was seriously stylish!
Driving this car out, Lamborghinis and Maseratis would be garbage. Could any of their cars match this Young Master’s? Piss this Young Master off, and he’d blast you with a car-mounted missile!
“Tang Chen, what were you shouting about? Ah—is this your car?” Yang Mi, now wearing a white dress, came downstairs and caught sight of this eye-catching car at once. When did Tang Chen buy a car? How come she didn’t know?
Seeing her confusion, Tang Chen walked over, wrapped his arm around her, and said, “So, how is it? This car barely matches this Young Master’s style, right? I didn’t tell you earlier because I wanted to surprise you. Now, get in the car.” With that, he said to the Extravagant Battle Car, “Open the doors.”
The Extravagant Battle Car was fully intelligent and absolutely obeyed Tang Chen’s commands. The headlights flashed once, then both doors slowly opened. Tang Chen and Yang Mi got in, and the doors closed automatically.
“Tang Chen, this car must have cost you a lot, right?” Yang Mi wasn’t a materialistic girl; she just felt a bit concerned for Tang Chen’s spending.
Tang Chen chuckled and said, “It’s nothing. Money is just a number to this Young Master. Now I’m worthy of your beauty. Let’s go.”
Ding!
A huge car dashboard appeared inside the Extravagant Battle Car, displaying the word “ON.” The engine started, Tang Chen gripped the steering wheel, and the car sped off.
The car was self-driving, so it didn’t matter whether Tang Chen knew how to drive or not. They drove straight ahead at high speed, undoubtedly making many people envious, and soon arrived at Swan Lake Throne.
