Harley-Davidson and Bugatti Veyron

A big villa and a private jet?

He already had big villas, and plenty of them. If it weren't for his sister's long trip to school, Lu Yuan would have taken her straight to live in one.

As for a private jet? If he took a flight sometime, he'd probably get one too, right?

Lu Yuan didn't discourage Lu Shishi. "All right, I'll wait for you to study hard, make lots of money, and support me. Hahaha."

"Mm-hmm! Pinky swear, and if I go back on my word, I'm a puppy!"

"Hahaha, that won't do. If you're a puppy, wouldn't that make me a dog too?"

Soft moonlight and the myriad lights of the city shone through the window, as if listening to the brother and sister's laughter.

After a night's rest, morning came.

Today was the day of the banquet celebrating his younger female cousin's admission to high school.

As it happened, Lu Shishi had no classes today, so Lu Yuan decided to bring her along. The two rode an electric scooter to the Shangri-La Hotel.

Lu Yuan glanced at the electric scooter, and an idea came to him.

Lu Yuan silently said, System, use the Tycoon Critical Hit reward on the electric scooter!

[You touched your electric scooter, triggering the Tycoon Critical Hit reward.]

[Congratulations, you have received a Harley-Davidson motorcycle worth 16.88 million.]

[The motorcycle has been parked for the host in the Shangri-La Hotel parking lot.]

As the system's voice faded, Lu Yuan could clearly feel an extra vehicle key in his pocket.

Whoa, a Harley-Davidson! What man hasn't dreamed of owning a motorcycle?

As a motorcycle boy, who wouldn't want to experience a wild, high-speed ride?

Lu Yuan remembered that this Harley-Davidson was a limited edition, with only three produced worldwide!

Eager to see it sooner, Lu Yuan sped up his little electric scooter a bit more. After a little over twenty minutes, he finally arrived at the Shangri-La Hotel.

As soon as they arrived, he saw a crowd gathered around a BMW, chattering away.

"Xianhe, this luxury car worth over four million really is something! It looks so cool!"

"A top-of-the-line BMW! It's so much better than Lu Yuan's lousy electric scooter."

"Lu Yuan's doing so badly. How could he compare to our Xianhe?"

"Wow! Cousin, your car is so cool! Cousin, can I get in and take a picture to post on Moments?"

His younger cousin Zhang Jiaojiao's face showed her materialism and vanity to the fullest.

Li Xianhe said generously, "What are you saying, Jiaojiao? We're cousins. Of course you can. Get in and take as many pictures as you like!"

Zhang Jiaojiao gripped the steering wheel and took what she thought was a gorgeous selfie. She edited a Moments post and sent it out: "Feeling beautiful today. My cousin, who drives a BMW, came all the way back from the imperial capital for my school admission banquet. I'm overwhelmed by the honor."

As soon as the post went up, Zhang Jiaojiao's old friends on WeChat, who had been silent for ages, came out one after another to comment.

Gu Lei: Damn, that car is so cool! A top-of-the-line BMW, over four million with all the fees. What a tycoon!

Your Hair Is Messy: Jiaojiao, that car belongs to your cousin? Is your cousin looking for a girlfriend?

Gu Xixia: Jiaojiao, introduce me to your cousin! I really want to cling to your cousin's thigh.

Most of the comments on her Moments post were asking for Li Xianhe's contact information or trying to curry favor with Zhang Jiaojiao, which greatly satisfied her vanity.

By then, Lu Yuan had parked his little electric scooter. Li Xianhe noticed him and came over with a sarcastic look. "Well, well! Isn't this my dear cousin Lu Yuan? Weren't you showing off in the group chat yesterday, saying you'd slap my face swollen today?"

"You came on this little piece-of-junk scooter to slap my face swollen? Cousin, you're hilarious!" Li Xianhe's face was full of mockery.

His younger cousin Zhang Jiaojiao also glanced at Lu Yuan and spoke with extreme spite. "Pfft! If you're counting on Lu Yuan to slap your face, Cousin, pigs might as well fly! Hahahaha!"

Lu Yuan remained perfectly calm. "Don't be in such a hurry. Just wait until the banquet's over. I'll slap your face swollen!"

"Haha, fine. I'll be waiting. By the way, Lu Yuan, you've definitely never driven a car this nice, have you?" Li Xianhe looked at Lu Yuan, putting on quite a show.

Lu Yuan played right along. "Right, right, right. I really haven't driven a car this nice!"

In his heart, though, Lu Yuan sneered at the BMW. It was worth only a little over four million—not even as much as the Harley motorcycle he'd just gotten by touching something.

Li Xianhe was thoroughly enjoying showing off. He immediately said, "Then I'll be generous today and let you touch my car to your heart's content. You can even take a few selfies and post them on Moments. You'll be able to brag about it for the rest of your life!"

Li Xianhe plainly wanted to make a laughingstock of Lu Yuan.

But Lu Yuan didn't care. On the contrary, he was delighted. Once he touched the BMW, the system would give him an even better car, so he had no reason to be angry.

Lu Yuan looked at Li Xianhe in surprise. "Are you really sure you want to let me touch it? Don't regret it later!"

For some reason, Li Xianhe felt that Lu Yuan's reaction was a little strange. Shouldn't he have been upset at being mocked?

Why did he look as happy as if he'd won five million?

But Li Xianhe was bent on humiliating Lu Yuan and didn't think any further. He sneered, "Look at you, so pathetic. Go on, touch it all you like. If you get it dirty, I won't even make you pay for a car wash!"

Even Lu Yuan's sister, Lu Shishi, couldn't understand him. "Brother, he's humiliating you..."

Lu Yuan shook his head. "No, no, no. I don't think this is humiliation. I think it's a good thing!"

Lu Yuan boldly ran his hands all over the BMW.

Zhang Jiaojiao was displeased. "He tells you to touch it, and you actually do? How many lifetimes has it been since you saw a nice car? You were so happy to mouth off at him in the family group chat, and you still have the nerve to touch his car? Lu Yuan, how can your face be so thick?"

The other relatives also piled on, pointing fingers at Lu Yuan. "Exactly! You haven't made anything of yourself, yet you don't know to cling to Xianhe's thigh. You even mouthed off at him in the group chat. How can you have the nerve to touch his car now?"

"A person who's been to school is worse than someone who's barely had any schooling!"

"Is how thick my face is any of your damn business? I'm not touching your cars. He's the impressive one, not you. Why are you jumping up and down, yapping so happily and acting all high and mighty with me?" Lu Yuan didn't indulge this younger cousin of his, who had never once called him her older cousin.

Zhang Jiaojiao was so angry she couldn't speak. "You, you..."

The relatives said, "We fucking..."

As Lu Yuan touched the car, he used the Tycoon Critical Hit ability.

[You touched a BMW, triggering the Tycoon Critical Hit reward!]

[The BMW has been upgraded by a critical hit. The host has received a Bugatti Veyron with all paperwork in order. The car has been parked in the Shangri-La Hotel parking lot!]

[The car key has been placed in the host's pocket.]

Lu Yuan felt his pocket. Sure enough, there was another car key in it, shaped like a model car.

Whew, finally got it. That was worth it. All I had to do was listen to a few clowns bark like dogs, and I got a fully paid-for Bugatti Veyron just by touching something. What could be better than this?

At that moment, Li Xianhe came over expectantly. "Cousin, my car feels pretty good to the touch, doesn't it?"

"How does it feel? Pretty crappy. This lousy car's a bit rough on the hands!" Lu Yuan looked disgusted.
