Mercedes-Maybach

Su Yang sat dumbfounded on the sofa.

—I... I haven’t even used it yet?

[Since the host has made up their mind, they will naturally use it.]

—You’re really something, alright, fine. You gave me this thing to save lives, so I’ll use it.

—By the way, what’s this stat card thing?

[Stat Card: Can be used on others to increase any one attribute by five points.]

—Damn, that’s awesome! I’ve got two of them—perfect timing to boost Mom and Dad’s constitution.

Su Yang thought to himself as he checked his phone—it was just noon.

Right then, his phone rang.

Su Yang picked it up and saw Zhao Mengrou’s name on the screen.

“Hey, sis, what’s up?”

“What do you mean ‘what’s up’? Are you treating me to lunch or not? It’s already noon, and I haven’t heard a peep from you.”

“Of course I am! I was just about to head out to buy groceries.” Su Yang chuckled.

“Good boy. Come pick me up, and we’ll go together.”

“No problem at all. You get me, right?”

“What’s there to ‘get’ or not get?”

“Nothing, I just mean I’d love for you to come along. Keeping it real!”

Zhao Mengrou rolled her eyes on the other end of the line.

After some more playful banter, they hung up.

Su Yang got up, took a quick shower, and changed into a fresh short-sleeve shirt and shorts.

As he walked to the entryway, his eyes landed on the three car keys resting on the side table.

“Huh? Wait, wait, wait—how the hell did I forget about the brand-new Maybach the system gave me?”

—System, where’s the Maybach key? In the inventory?

[Yes. Would you like to retrieve it?]

—Retrieve.

The moment Su Yang spoke, a sleek black key materialized on the table.

The Mercedes three-pointed star emblem gleamed at its center.

Su Yang grinned as he picked it up.

“Nice weight. You’re the one today!”

He slipped the key into his bag and headed out.

Soon, he arrived at the garage, where a brand-new two-tone Mercedes-Maybach S680 sat parked beside the Turbo S.

When he’d returned earlier, he hadn’t noticed the S680 occupying the spot—no wonder he’d forgotten about it.

Now, all four parking spaces were filled: an SUV, a top-tier luxury sedan, and two supercars.

Su Yang’s lips curled into an involuntary smile. “Life’s complete.”

Taking a closer look at the imposing S680, his face lit up with the same awe he’d felt when first seeing the McLaren Senna.

This car exuded sheer dominance—the ultimate status symbol for business elites and the wealthy. A ticket to the upper echelons.

The system’s gift was the top-tier S680, with a price tag exceeding four million. A limited edition would’ve cost an extra two or three million, and even then, money alone might not secure one.

You’re not lacking in status—you’re just missing a Maybach.

No one can feel insecure while sitting in a Maybach. Where charm fails, a Maybach opens doors.

Under the hood: a 6.0L V12 twin-turbo engine, 612 horsepower, 900 Nm of torque.

Stretching 5.47 meters long, it could hit 100 km/h in just 4.7 seconds. Drive this, and the car speaks for itself.

Su Yang swallowed hard and pressed the key fob.

The lights flashed, and the hidden door handles silently emerged.

Projected onto the ground on either side were the Maybach emblem and angel-wing motifs.

With a smirk, Su Yang pulled open the solid, luxurious door.

The interior was a vision in white—diamond-quilted Nappa leather seats, plush beyond measure, even extending to the roof.

When it came to opulence, Mercedes feared no rival.

Settling into the driver’s seat, Su Yang reveled in the perfection around him. The comfort here was worlds apart from the Senna’s race-bred stiffness.

[Ding! Detecting host’s extreme satisfaction. Reward: 2 million.]

The engine purred to life. Ambient lighting illuminated the cabin as the 4D Burmester sound system’s rotating speakers emerged. The meteor shower headlights cast a radiant glow ahead.

“This car is next-level insane!”

“Gotta blast the Maybach anthem for this moment.”

Su Yang queued up a trending TikTok hit.

The opening notes filled the cabin through the Burmester speakers—so crisp, it felt like the artist was right beside him, singing just for him.

[Ding! Host’s enjoyment detected again. Reward: 2 million.]

Snapping back to reality, Su Yang realized he hadn’t stopped smiling since laying eyes on the car.

A glance at the clock—time to fetch Zhao Mengrou before her follow-up call arrived.

A gentle tap on the accelerator, and the S680 glided out of the garage.

Su Yang had driven to Zhao Mengrou’s place once before. His sense of direction was sharp—no GPS needed after a single trip.

Oceanview Estates wasn’t far. Soon, he pulled up outside her apartment complex.

Just then, Zhao Mengrou stepped out, dressed in a white off-shoulder bodycon dress and black heels.

Her hair flowed, her figure flawless.

Spotting the two-tone luxury sedan idling at the curb, she frowned and dialed Su Yang.

“Yeah?” He answered, lowering the passenger window with a grin as their eyes met.

Whoa. Going for the bombshell look today?

Zhao Mengrou froze, lips parting slightly, eyes wide.

Su Yang laughed. “What’re you staring at? Get in!”

A screech from her phone reminded Zhao Mengrou she was still holding it to her ear.

Hanging up, she approached the passenger side.

“You... bought another car?”

“Nah, had this one for a while. These aren’t exactly off-the-lot purchases.”

“Oh.” Still dazed, she nodded.

Su Yang flashed a grin. “Hop in. Can’t park here long—traffic cams love this spot.”

“Right, right.” She hurried inside.

As the Maybach merged into traffic, Su Yang shot her a glance.

“Looking even hotter since last time, Mengrou.”

She glared. “Your mouth’s getting slicker by the day.”

“Heh. Slick and nimble.”

“Nimble how?” She blinked.

“Uh, never mind. How’ve you been?”

“Same old. Swamped lately.”

"You don't have work today, right? What's keeping you so busy?" Su Yang asked.

Zhao Mengrou sighed. "Family matters. I've been busy these past few days with the newly renovated apartments at home."

"Several apartments?!" Su Yang repeated in shock.

"Oh, they're just small ones—nothing compared to yours."

"Your family’s got it made. Just collecting rent would set you up for life."

Zhao Mengrou fiddled with her seat for a while before reclining it to lie down. "Eh, it is what it is. Not starving, but not getting rich either."

"Come on, be grateful. Your family’s situation is a lifelong dream for most people." As he spoke, Su Yang turned left onto a new road.

Zhao Mengrou tilted her head toward him and smirked. "Still doesn’t hold a candle to yours."

"Why compare yourself to me? Anyway, what do you want for dinner tonight?"

Zhao Mengrou gazed at the car ceiling, thinking. "Anything’s fine. Hey, where’s Xiao Man?"

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
