"What are you doing!"
"Do you know what kind of store this is? Hermès!"
"Quickly remove your dirty hands! Can you afford to pay if you dirty anything?"
Kyoto, Guojin Center.
The sharp voice of the salesperson echoed throughout the store, watching a pair of young man and woman in the shop with full disdain.
"Sorry, sorry."
Upon hearing this, the young woman repeatedly apologized and subtly tugged at the man's clothes next to her, whispering, "Yunzhou, let's leave quickly. The things here are too expensive!"
An ordinary-looking piece of clothing starts at a four-digit price; this isn't doing business anymore. It's an outright robbery!
Comparatively, Ye Yunzhou seemed as if he hadn't heard a word, he gently smiled and slowly said, "Sister Yunxi, just choose whatever you like. Don't worry about these."
"After all, you can't wear the clothes you are wearing now..."
He noticed only at this point that Su Yunxi's clothes were dirty and somewhat wet, as if they were splashed with some liquid.
Time goes back half an hour ago.
...
Kyoto, Jiaotong University.
Every year in early September, Jiaotong University is the busiest time, with faces full of anticipation for future college life everywhere on campus.
At the moment, the school gate was bustling with noise and excitement. Not only was it filled with new students registering, but also some sophomore and junior volunteers were present.
"Hey, did you hear? OuYang Xu had a heated argument in the new student’s group chat last night!"
"OuYang Xu? The so-called show-off rich second generation?"
"Correct! It's him! Someone in the group chat said that OuYang Xu drives a tractor of all things!"
"What? A tractor? Isn’t that a bit too much?"
"Indeed, OuYang Xu's car is only a Porsche 718 which costs around six to seven hundred thousand, but it's not something any student can afford."
"Although that's true, this is after all, the capital, where luxury cars are common. Plus, with the internet nowadays, everyone's a potential rich person or a 985/211 person. A car costing six to seven hundred thousand naturally wouldn't catch their attention."
In the middle of the lively conversation between the two sophomore volunteers, a reprimanding voice suddenly sounded from the side.
"What are you doing standing there? Always slacking off, haven't you noticed all the new students needing assistance?"
Looking up, they saw the Student Council's Vice-president, Su Yunxie, frowning with displeasure directed towards them.
The two volunteers were instantly silenced, and they hurriedly scurried off to assist the new students.
Standing still, Su Yunxie was dressed in a standard student council uniform.
The little suit outlined her curvaceous figure, and the shirt beneath hinted at an attractive outline.
Paired with a knee-length pencil skirt and flesh-coloured stockings, her slim legs looked more enchanting.
Such a seductive figure, coupled with her beautiful face that was easily a nine out of ten, it's no wonder she held onto the title of the campus belle of the Capital Traffic University.
"Buzz!"
Right at that moment, the rumbling of an engine sounded.
The next second, a white Porsche 718 parked steadily beside Su Yunxue.
As the car window lowered, a face with a hint of arrogance gradually emerged into sight.
"Yunxue, don't push yourself too hard. You can delegate matters pertaining to the freshmen to others."
Looking at Su Yunxue, a fleeting glance of lust crossed his eyes, quickly replaced by feigned concern.
"Ouyang Xu?"
Upon realizing that it was Ouyang Xu, the smile on Su Yunxue's face vanished without a trace, her voice taking on a icy tone.
Seemingly oblivious to the disgust in Su Yunxue's words, Ouyang Xu gave a slight smile and casually said, "By the way, Yunxue, I have reserved a spot at Théry. Shall we go there tonight?"
After saying this, fearing that Su Yunxue wouldn’t be familiar with 'Théry', he added.
"Théry is one of the few three Michelin-starred restaurants with a three-month waiting list!"
His words came across as both boastful and merit-seeking.
"Oh, no need, I have other matters to attend to."
Upon hearing this, Su Yunxue rejected outright without any sugarcoating.
She simply couldn't stand these second-generation rich kids who acted as they pleased simply because their families are affluent.
Upon hearing this, fury ignited within Ouyang Xu as he grabbed a bottle of Nutrient Express at hand and attempted to fling it at Su Yunxue.
"Hypocritical purity, Su Yunxue!"
"There are countless women dying to come and go with me daily, I'm warning you, don't play innocent after gaining an advantage!"
Furious and embarrassed, Ouyang Xu finished these words menacingly, raising his hand, readying to smash the bottle at Su Yunxue.
"Ouyang Xu!"
At this moment, a figure suddenly shielded Su Yunxue, standing there like a guardian of a flower, protecting her securely behind him.
Ouyang Xu was slightly taken aback, and seeing the newcomer, he began to mock: "Who do I think it is! So, it's you, this impoverished ghost!"
"Ye Yunzhou, be careful not to bite off more than you can chew, trying to impress a woman!"
Faced with Ouyang Xu's bluster, Ye Yunzhou seemed oblivious, his eyes filled with concern for Su Yunxue.
"Yunxue, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
The two of them grew up in the same residential compound, Su Yunxue was three months older than Ye Yunzhou, hence he always addressed her as elder sister Yunxue.
"Yunzhou, I'm fine."
After acknowledging his concern, Su Yunxue seemed to suddenly come up with something, urgently grasping Ye Yunzhou's sleeve: "Yunzhou, let's just drop this. Ouyang Xu's family background is quite complicated, it's better not to provoke him."
As these words came out, Ouyang Xu sneered even more triumphantly: "Ye Yunzhou, did you hear that?"
"Even a hero needs certain capabilities to save the beauty!"
"See this car of mine? Even if you save up for a lifetime, you still wouldn't be able to afford it!"
As these words fell, right as Ye Yunzhou was about to say something, a frigid mechanical voice abruptly echoed in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering a hidden mission and earning the 'Flower Protector' title!"
"Reward: A Black Card, credit limit unlimited!"
As the system's voice concluded, Ye Yunzhou could distinctly feel a card, roughly the size of a bank card, materialize out of nowhere in his pocket.
With a faint smile, he glanced around him, and under the gazes of the onlookers, Ye Yunzhou said softly, "Ouyang Xu, can it be that you've stooped to such a level? It's just a tractor after all, what's there to show off?"
Tractor!
Those words struck like a sharp blade, piercing ruthlessly into Ouyang Xu's heart.
"Ye Yunzhou! The person who had an argument with me in the group chat yesterday was you!"
Only then did Ouyang Xu realize that the person who had openly challenged him in the Freshmen Group chat was none other than Ye Yunzhou!
"That's right, that was me. I said your car is a tractor, that's simply an insult to tractors!"
"Sister Yunxi, let's go!"
As his words concluded, under the gaze of everyone present, Ye Yunzhou slowly pulled out a car key and lightly pressed it.
“Vroom!”
The very next second, not far from the school gate, the headlights of a grey supercar flickered, its engine's roaring, much like a wild beast, and its gull-wing doors slowly rose!
