"You know, we are in the era of new energy smart vehicles. In our school's highly educated alumni circle, everyone buys domestic smart cars. Those traditional luxury cars are like antique phones about to be phased out by smartphones... Ah, you know, those old-school keypad phones..."
"Yeah, yeah, I know."
"And this car cost hundreds of thousands. To be honest, when my dad bought it for me, he did feel a pinch in his wallet for a moment, haha, a whole year's year-end bonus gone!"
What kind of family gets a year-end bonus of hundreds of thousands... Liu Yuanyuan couldn't help but click her tongue in awe, her fingers tracing the leather seats.
From her first impression sitting inside, the car definitely felt very nice.
She didn't really care about attributes like new energy or smart tech. As long as the car was expensive enough and gave her face, she liked it.
Plus, it had to be a new car. Someone like Xue Tao, driving his family's second-hand Cayenne to keep up appearances, obviously reeked of desperation.
This upperclassman definitely seemed much better than Xue Tao.
Although his vibe was a bit flashy, making him look like a salesman in the financial industry, well, how to put it?
Xue Tao was flashy too!
And Xue Tao was the classic flashy nouveau riche who got rich from property demolition. He really was overshadowed by this senior.
The problem, however, was that this senior was just frantically showing off his family background and taste to Liu Yuanyuan; his spending wasn't as generous as Xue Tao's.
Thinking of this, Huang Ran's face flashed before Liu Yuanyuan's eyes, making her grit her teeth a little.
If she let that woman take the top spot, wouldn't she lose a perfectly good ATM like Xue Tao forever?
No, she had to do something during this camping trip to stop her ATM from running away.
But at the same time, Liu Yuanyuan hoped to use this camping trip to get closer to the senior.
For a moment, she felt conflicted.
Greedy women were like this, they wanted both the present and the future.
Noticing Liu Yuanyuan's slightly displeased expression, the senior asked, "What's wrong, junior? Not in a good mood? Did you not sleep well last night, or do you just not like the car?"
"No, I don't dislike it. Yeah, I just didn't rest very well last night."
"Hehe, then once we set up camp, we can get to the sleeping part a bit early."
The senior's expression looked a bit sleazy.
Liu Yuanyuan furrowed her brows, looking somewhat resistant.
Why was he dropping such obvious hints? This senior was a bit too eager.
In reality, the senior was deliberately exposing his intentions to test her reaction.
As a result, her reaction clearly showed she wasn't the easy-to-get type.
Hiss...
He had already treated her to several meals and spent quite a bit of money. Couldn't she even take a little joke?
If she were a girl with high emotional intelligence, even if she didn't want to jump into that with him right away, she would have cracked a joke to quickly brush it off and save him from embarrassment.
This Liu Yuanyuan just didn't get it.
Since she wasn't playing ball, the senior changed his mind. Maybe he should change his target?
Among the junior girls who came this time, there were a few who came in groups, and it seemed like someone was a bit interested in him. He could tell just from brief eye contact and short interactions.
He was an old player, after all.
As the vice president of the outdoor club, if nothing else, his social network was definitely far superior to the vast majority of students.
It wasn't like he lacked experience. Why would he hang himself on one tree for a woman who was merely decently pretty, like some uncultured nouveau riche?
He wasn't that desperate!
So, who should he switch his target to?
First, he had to rule out Xia Lin. She was Young Master Su's woman. Even though she was the most dazzling beauty in the entire camping group, her level was too high. She wasn't someone a minor rich kid like him could handle.
Speaking of which, what car did Young Master Su drive today?
The vice president suddenly realized that he had been so busy gathering his friends that he hadn't had time to notice.
Looking around, he finally spotted the roaring Land Rover Defender OCTA getting ready to depart.
"Holy shit!"
The vice president's eyes lit up. He gasped, rolled down the window, and stuck his head out to stare.
"What's wrong? What are you looking at?" Liu Yuanyuan was totally confused.
"The emperor of off-roading! Damn, it looks like it's been heavily modified too. Tsk tsk, as expected of Young Master Su. I totally respect Young Master Su's taste."
"Uh, is this car... really impressive?"
"Of course it is! Let me put it this way, its off-road capability is so good that you could drive it into a no man's land for an expedition without a single problem. It could even serve as a vehicle for a scientific research team. Look at those modification parts and the bulletproof kit, it's truly invincible... The tires are also crucial. If you go mountain driving out West and local herdsmen try to mess with you, good tires mean you don't have to worry..."
The vice president went on and on, talking a mile a minute.
It had to be said, although this guy was a show-off, he really knew his stuff about the outdoors.
He was on a completely different level from a temporary outdoor poser like Liu Yuanyuan.
"I wonder if Young Master Su wants to run the Sichuan-Tibet route or something. I could be his guide when the time comes... Ah, forget it, he'd definitely hire expert-level guides. A small fry like me wouldn't even catch his eye," the vice president continued to mutter.
Liu Yuanyuan's expression was complicated. She had long noticed that this senior held Su Bai in extremely high regard.
She couldn't help but feel a bit defiant. "Isn't Land Rover a traditional brand too? It shouldn't be as good as your car, right?"
"Hehe, not at all. Although they don't focus on smart tech, when it comes to traditional off-roading, Young Master Su's car is far superior... Plus, with all the modifications, his car easily costs at least three million. It's way more expensive than mine."
"..."
To be fair, although this senior loved to brag about his assets, when he met someone richer than him, he strictly followed the rule of whoever has the money is the boss. You could only say he was much more honest than those hypocrites.
Those people who demanded equality when meeting someone richer but acted all high and mighty around poorer people were far less straightforward than this guy.
Liu Yuanyuan glanced at the tall and imposing Land Rover Defender OCTA, feeling even more frustrated.
The convoy set off. The senior turned on the music and drove leisurely, his mind no longer on Liu Yuanyuan.
This chick really didn't know how to play the game. She was arrogant and had low emotional intelligence.
Honestly, she was a perfect match for that Xue Tao.
A match made in heaven, really.
The senior had already decided to find an excuse to ditch her once they reached their destination and find a new companion.
...
"What do you say, Xia? The engine roar is tuned pretty well, isn't it..."
"It sounds great. I like it."
At this moment, inside the big Land Rover, Xia was driving.
She really liked this kind of domineering off-road vehicle and insisted on driving, even though she was a bit physically exhausted from last night. She still wanted to drive the whole way.
Su Bai suggested, "Xia, if you're lacking energy, I actually have a way to make you feel completely refreshed."
"Let's hear it."
"Actually, my... has a special effect."
Su Bai said shamelessly.
This Source Physique had to be put to good use at times like this!

m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!

ose... to cooperate with the protagonist! Shen Yuan: I have a system! Protagonist: What? System: Holy crap, you're just spilling it out like that? Shen Yuan: Let's team up, we'll split the system rewards! Protagonist: Fifty-fifty split? Shen Yuan: No way! Protagonist: What!? I'm the one getting beaten up, and I don't get half?

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
