Su Cheng returned home and headed straight to the underground parking lot, wanting to see if his parking spot had been occupied.
Soon, he found his spot according to the markings.
As expected, his parking space had been taken by someone else.
It was a black luxury car, a model Su Cheng didn't recognize but looked very flashy, definitely not cheap. It was strange that someone so wealthy wouldn't buy their own parking spot.
He then circled the car, trying to find a contact number, but unfortunately, the owner had left no contact information.
"Looks like I'll have to contact the property management."
After thinking for a while, Su Cheng decided to call the property management.
He needed to buy a means of transportation soon, and although he could store the vehicle in his system space, it would be troublesome if he kept appearing and disappearing in this area full of surveillance cameras. So, he planned to leave the car here.
After contacting the property management, they promised to notify the owner to move the car, and he hung up the phone. He then took the elevator back home, changed out of his school uniform, and sat at his desk to write on an A4 paper, 'Parking Space Sold, Do Not Park Here.'
He then returned to his parking spot and taped the note to a nearby load-bearing column, making sure everything was in order before leaving the underground parking lot to buy an electric bike nearby.
If he had an electric bike, he wouldn't have to squeeze onto the bus every morning, saving a lot of time.

In an apartment building
At the entrance
"Look, it's Su Cheng!"
Xuan Ying pointed at the person coming out of the underground parking lot.
"He seems to be heading out; let's hide."
Zhao Yan watched as Su Cheng walked towards the exit, guessing his intentions.
These two were the tailing/protecting duo of Su Cheng. After getting off the bus at the address, they directly entered the community.
The security measures in the community were quite good; non-residents were not allowed in.
But there was one thing worth mentioning.
The three security guards in the guard room couldn't even muster a complete set of teeth.
Seeing Su Cheng leave the apartment and head towards the city center, Xuan Ying and Zhao Yan exchanged glances and followed him.
However, they soon noticed that Su Cheng had entered a fast food restaurant called 'Kentucky Fried Chicken.' They immediately realized that he was going to eat and sat down on a garden chair in a corner outside to wait.
"It's been a long time since I had this."
Xuan Ying watched as Su Cheng inside the glass window ate with relish, swallowing her saliva.
"I've only had it a few times."
"Since we're here, why not try it?"
"But we'll be seen by Su Cheng if we go in now."
"How about we go in after he finishes eating?"
"Alright!"
After a long while, Su Cheng came out, and they watched his retreating back.
"Hurry up."
"Okay."
Xuan Ying stood up, and Zhao Yan followed suit. Then, they tiptoed towards the Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant.
Soon, they were eating their food while searching for Su Cheng's whereabouts, but unfortunately, they didn't find him.
"We shouldn't have been greedy."
Zhao Yan took a bite of her burger and muttered.
"Yeah, we shouldn't have eaten."
Xuan Ying nodded in agreement and took a big bite of her burger.
The two stood on the roadside, forming a beautiful scene.
Zhao Yan was half a head taller than Xuan Ying, with golden hair cascading down her shoulders, a tall and curvaceous figure, like a queen, standing out among the crowd.
Xuan Ying, though shorter, had the appearance of a loli, with a cute face and clear big eyes, making her even more adorable.
These two were high-profile beauties wherever they went.
Especially with their Flame City Private Academy uniforms, their noble status was evident, attracting frequent attention from passersby.
However, the two were unaware that they were being watched by the crowd.
As they searched for their target, Zhao Yan suddenly noticed the strange looks from the people around them and saw someone raise their phone and take a photo with a click.
"Someone is taking our picture."
Zhao Yan frowned, looking displeased.
"I'll make her delete it!"
Xuan Ying also realized the seriousness of the situation.
Their photos couldn't be posted on social media.
If they were exposed, it would become headline news, something like 'Daughter of a Group Chairman Eating Burgers in the City Center.'
Just thinking about it was incredibly embarrassing.
And if their family found out, the consequences would be unimaginable. Not only would they be scolded, but their freedom might also be restricted.
Thinking of this, the two threw their food into a nearby trash can and walked towards the photographer, intending to make her delete the photo.
The photographer was a fat middle-aged man, very plump, bald, holding a phone, looking anything but decent.
When they reached him, Zhao Yan said sternly, "Sir, please delete the photo, or we'll have to call the police!"
"Photo? What photo?"
The man pretended not to understand, but his panicked eyes betrayed his lie.
"You took a photo of us while we were eating; please delete it immediately."
Zhao Yan continued.
"I didn't! I was just taking a photo of the scenery. Don't be so self-absorbed!"
The man immediately retorted.
The two girls were infuriated. The man had clearly taken a photo, yet he claimed he hadn't, even calling them self-absorbed.
It was too shameless.
"You shameless fat man!"
Xuan Ying rushed forward, raising her hand to snatch the man's phone. The man was startled and quickly retreated, then dashed into a nearby alley.
Xuan Ying, not thinking twice, was about to chase after him when Zhao Yan stopped her.
"Don't chase, it's too dangerous."
Zhao Yan shook her head, dissuading her.
"But the photo…"
"Our safety is more important."
If they chased after him and there were accomplices in the alley, it would be disastrous.
"Hey, why are you two here?"
At that moment, a familiar voice sounded, and Su Cheng appeared in front of them, pushing a bicycle.
Seeing Su Cheng, their expressions froze, then turned awkward, as they were caught tailing him.
"We were just shopping."
Zhao Yan forced a laugh and said.
"Really?"
Su Cheng was skeptical. To be honest, encountering the two of them here was quite surprising.
Normally, this time of day, they should be at school club activities, right?
Did they leave early?
And they were still wearing their school uniforms.
He himself didn't dare to wear that uniform, as it was too eye-catching.
Let alone them.
Earlier, he had gone to an electric bike dealership to buy one, only to find out that he needed a license to ride it on the road. He had to settle for buying a bicycle with a rear seat instead.
But just as he was about to head home, he ran into Xuan Ying and Zhao Yan, who seemed to be in some kind of trouble.
"Did you two run into trouble?"
"We just…"
Xuan Ying, looking angry, began to speak but was interrupted by Zhao Yan, who said, "We just had fast food at the restaurant but didn't get full. You know this place well; do you have any recommendations?"
As she spoke, she secretly pinched Xuan Ying's waist.
"Ow!"
Xuan Ying yelped in pain but understood her intention and wisely kept quiet.
Zhao Yan didn't want to trouble Su Cheng, and since the person had already run away, telling him would only add to his worries.
Su Cheng sensed something was off; their reactions seemed to be hiding something.
"We're classmates, right?"
Su Cheng's expression turned serious as he looked at the two.

So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
