Although Pietro had grown accustomed to all kinds of luxury during this time,
this was his first time encountering a sports car.
After all, Xu Mo had gotten tired of these things years ago. The cars he rode in now were mostly business vehicles focused on comfort and safety.
But for a young man like Pietro, who rarely came into contact with luxury cars, sports cars were far more capable of stirring the hormones in his blood.
Excitedly, he stepped forward and circled the car, inspecting it from every angle.
"This is absolutely amazing!"
However, Pietro quickly suppressed his excitement.
"This is too valuable. I can't accept it!"
Having expected this, Xu Mo opened the car door and directly shoved him inside.
"Don't worry. I'm just lending it to you. Besides, I got tired of this car years ago. It's only been gathering dust in the garage, so this is just making use of something that would otherwise go to waste!"
"Or do you not like this model?"
As he spoke, Xu Mo took out his phone and opened the photo album.
"Then take a look and see which one you like. There are still dozens more in the garage!"
Back when he had been obsessed with sports cars, Xu Mo had bought dozens upon dozens of them in a frenzy.
Most of them had only been driven once or twice, while some had never been driven at all.
Although Wanda had directly made the decision for Pietro to attend college, he chose the university himself.
To escape Wanda's supervision, he had not chosen the same university as her.
Wanda was going to a state university in Pennsylvania, while he had chosen Boston University.
The two universities were in opposite directions, both roughly three or four hours' drive from New York.
Of course, there were quite a few famous universities in New York, but under Xu Mo's deliberate guidance, the two still chose universities out of town. That way, they could naturally leave the dangerous city of New York.
Hearing Xu Mo's words, Pietro hesitated for a moment before no longer refusing.
"All right. I really like this one!"
Of course, the main reason was that he liked the car far too much.
"Your acceptance letter and the address of your residence are in the bag on the passenger seat!"
After Xu Mo finished instructing him, Wanda also walked out of the villa.
Seeing Pietro start the car, she revealed a smile carrying a hint of warning.
"Once vacation starts, I'll come visit you!"
Pietro's expression changed when he heard that.
Ever since deciding to go back to school, he had practically been living in torment every day.
After graduating from high school, the two of them had dropped out and gone straight to work. They had forgotten nearly ninety percent of what they had learned in school.
So that he would not feel as though he were listening to gibberish once he entered college,
Wanda had forced Pietro to study with her for four or five hours every day during this period.
Wanda said she was going to visit him, but he knew very well that her true purpose was to check on his studies.
"Listen, Wanda, there's absolutely no need for that. I can take care of myself!"
"That's it. Goodbye!"
With that, Pietro started the car. After a deafening roar, the Lamborghini vanished from their sight.
Watching him disappear, Wanda turned to Xu Mo.
"Was I being a little too strict with him?"
"Of course not. You should know that in China, students study more than ten hours a day. You've been far too lenient with him lately!"
Between Wanda and Pietro, he naturally supported Wanda without hesitation.
Neither of them worried much about Pietro's safety.
More than half a month ago, Pietro had already been able to lift a car weighing over a ton with his bare hands.
When he ran, he could even break world sprinting records.
With his current strength, it would be good enough if he did not threaten anyone else's safety.
After seeing Pietro off, all the belongings from the villa behind them had also been loaded into the car.
Then the two drove a red Ferrari, taking the lead as they headed toward Pennsylvania.
Four hours later.
The car entered an elegant villa community.
The entire development covered a vast area and was less than a ten-minute drive from the state university Wanda would be attending.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a two-story villa.
The villa was entirely white and came with a courtyard of more than a hundred square meters.
Bright flowers had been planted in the courtyard.
The two got out of the car.
"What do you think? If you're not satisfied with this one, there are several more nearby. We can go look at them all!"
Thanks to the instincts ingrained in Chinese people's bones,
Xu Mo's parents had been extremely fond of buying property while they were alive.
Although their estate had previously been less than a tenth of what it was now, they had still been among the wealthiest people in the United States.
Coupled with the sluggish real estate market at the time,
his parents had bought several properties in nearly every major city in the United States.
This was one of the properties they had bought back then.
Wanda's eyes lit up as she shook her head.
"No need. It's beautiful here. It's exactly what I imagined my dream home would look like!"
With that, Wanda stepped into the courtyard.
At that moment, the door creaked open from inside, and a woman who appeared to be in her twenties walked out.
She was about 1.6 meters tall, with long blonde hair. Her fair face and slightly voluptuous figure gave off a hormonal allure that made men restless.
Perhaps because the weather was too hot, the woman wore only a plain cotton short-sleeved T-shirt on top.
Paired with denim shorts, she also had a youthful, energetic air about her.
She glanced outside the villa, her gaze lingering briefly on the red Ferrari before finally settling on Xu Mo.
"Are you the owner of the house, Mr. Xu?"
"Hello, I'm Sonia Simonson. I was previously responsible for looking after the villa. You can call me Sonia!"
After introducing herself, she stepped forward and shook Xu Mo's hand.
"Your secretary, Ms. Avril, spoke with me on the phone before. She said you would be arriving in the next few days!"
Xu Mo's parents had purchased too many properties. If left unattended for a long time, most of these wooden houses could easily rot and fall into disrepair.
Furthermore, under United States law, if a house was left unmanaged for too long and people such as homeless vagrants moved in, disputes over ownership could arise after they had lived there for a certain number of years.
Therefore, his parents had hired a local person to look after each house.
The pay for this job was not high, but the caretaker could live in the villa temporarily.
Sonia before them was clearly in that situation.
"Please follow me!"
Sonia led the two of them into the villa.
Looking at the tidy living room,
Xu Mo nodded to himself. It seemed that she had taken good care of the villa!
While Xu Mo went upstairs to inspect the rooms, Sonia hesitated before pulling Wanda aside.
"Actually... I still haven't found a suitable place to live, so..."
At this point, she continued with an embarrassed expression.
"Could you give me a little more time to find a place?"
"Don't worry, I'll only stay in the servants' room at night. I definitely won't disturb either of you, and I can take care of the villa's cleaning during this time!"
