C13 It Looks down on You

Although she was clueless as to how she had become Lin Chen's good luck charm.

Lin Chen just smiled and kept silent.

Meanwhile, Shen Mengqi's club promotional event had wrapped up.

Before leaving, she had boosted Lin Chen's reputation.

Then came a barrage of club promotions, but Lin Chen tuned them out.

All he wanted was to savor the experience of his Rolls-Royce Phantom.

After enduring until class was over, the students swarmed out. Lin Chen, disliking the congestion, waited until the crowd thinned before descending the stairs.

Reaching the ground floor, he found a throng encircling a car—his Rolls-Royce Phantom.

"Holy cow! Pure awesomeness! That's the Rolls-Royce Phantom, right?"

"My dream car! It's freaking gorgeous. I'd give up three years of my life just to drive this beauty!"

"Everyone, back off a bit. If you scratch it by accident, hundreds of thousands are down the tubes!"

...

Zou Kai stood to the side, admiring the Rolls-Royce Phantom with envy.

"Now that's a genuine luxury car!"

His roommate, Zhang He, inquired:

"Kai, that car looks super expensive. How much does it go for?"

Zou Kai glanced at him and replied:

"The base price alone is over six million yuan, and that's just the bare car. Factor in the optional extras, and you're talking millions more. If it's fully loaded, the price climbs even higher."

Zhang He gasped:

"That's insane. I've learned quite a bit today!"

Just then, Zou Kai noticed Lin Chen standing with his arms folded and cracked a smile:

"So, you've got your eye on this car too?"

Lin Chen gave him a look but remained silent.

Zou Kai scoffed and approached:

"Liking it is one thing, but a car like this is out of our league."

"Still, even if I can't swing a Rolls-Royce, I've got a BMW 5 Series. It's no Rolls, but it's pretty decent."

Lin Chen's brow creased ever so slightly as he regarded Zou Kai with the look one might give a complete fool.

Where on earth did he muster the audacity to flaunt his sense of superiority in Lin Chen's presence?

Zou Kai's skin crawled under Lin Chen's gaze, and irritation bubbled up within him:

"What's with that look?"

"Are you looking down on me...?"

He choked back the rest of his words, though, when Lin Chen pulled out his car keys, strode over to the Rolls-Royce Phantom, opened the door, and slid into the driver's seat.

Zou Kai's mouth hung open in an 'O' of disbelief, as if he'd seen a ghost.

Had he really just seen Lin Chen get into that Rolls-Royce Phantom?

So, that meant this luxury car was actually Lin Chen's?

"Damn, this swanky ride is his?" Zou Kai thought, dumbfounded.

"Wait, he looks familiar... Isn't that the helicopter big shot?"

"Isn't he the freshman who arrived by helicopter? No wonder it's not a big deal for him. Owning a helicopter, a supercar is nothing!"

"Oh no, does this guy have a girlfriend? If not, would he mind if I became one? And if he does, would he mind one more? I'm super easy-going, no drama..."

Before Zou Kai could fully process everything, Lin Chen had already driven off in the Rolls-Royce Phantom, leaving him in the dust.

Listening to the murmurs around him, Zou Kai felt as if he had been drained of all his energy, his complexion as ghastly as if he'd just swallowed a fly.

He had finally pieced it together - Lin Chen was the new student who had made such an entrance with a helicopter!

Now it all made sense why the senior sisters fawned over Lin Chen, and why he, Zou Kai, couldn't hold a candle to him...

Lin Chen had the cash to back it up!

Zou Kai's legs buckled, nearly sending him tumbling to the ground, but he managed to scramble away in a hasty retreat.
