Supremely Talented Tyrant

Two days later...

After Lin Qingxue finished registering for the semester, she hung out with a few roommates and then called Hao Jian.

"You're calling so early in the morning, what's up?"

Just as Hao Jian was about to get up to check on Spice Ginger's condition, he received a call from Lin Qingxue.

"Weren't you asking me to treat you to a meal? Let's go out now!"

To be honest, Lin Qingxue had never invited a guy out to eat before. Hao Jian was the first one, mainly because before she went to university, her father was very strict about such relationships. He would always keep a close watch on any boy who interacted with her.

Although she found it annoying, she understood her father's intentions as she grew older. What surprised her was that the father who was always so protective would wholeheartedly approve of her going out with Hao Jian.

Seeing her father like this, Lin Qingxue was filled with inner complaints.

"Okay!"

With Hao Jian saying that, he realized what Lin Qingxue wanted. He chuckled and said, "I'll be at your school gate in half an hour. Don't be late."

Since he was planning to visit Spice Ginger anyway, Hua City University was conveniently en route. He planned to pick up Lin Qingxue, then head to the hospital.

"Got it!"

Lin Qingxue responded and then hung up. As soon as she did, her three roommates suddenly sprang out of bed, which startled Lin Qingxue.

"Who are you treating to a meal, Little Xiaoxue..."

The dorms at Hua City University have always been four to a room, typically allocated per class, meaning Lin Qingxue's roommates were all her classmates.

The one speaking was a girl who slept opposite Lin Qingxue. She had shoulder-length hair and eyes that were just the right size that many men found attractive. Her most notable feature was her chest, larger than Lin Qingxue's.

She was the most lively and outgoing girl in the dorm. Her name was Molan, and her family background was quite wealthy, not far behind Lin Qingxue's.

As she just got up, her hair was a bit disheveled, and she had on a loose-fitting pajama that revealed her bra straps.

If any hormonally charged boys at the school saw this, they'd likely have nosebleeds.

The other two girls, while not as stunning as Lin Qingxue and Molan, were beauties in their own right, each a class beauty no matter the class they're in.

The four of them happened to be the highest-rated in looks in their class, with Lin Qingxue being crowned the new school beauty among the freshmen.

The two beauties had different styles; one wore glasses and had a Chinese-themed pajama—her name was Ye Ni, and the other was a technophile with four or five laptops that she never turned off, playing quite expensive games.

As she puts it, "If I'm not doing tech stuff, I'm playing games. If not gaming, I'm doing tech stuff."

This girl's name was Ailin. Perhaps due to living in the USA for some time as a child, she often mixed English into her speech.

"Uh..."

Seeing her roommates eye her intensely after suddenly waking up, Lin Qingxue's face turned rosy as she stuck out her tongue and said, "I won't tell!"

"Oh? Seems like we'll have to tease you until you spill the beans!"

Molan grinned at Lin Qingxue, placing her shiny soft foot on the bed frame, looking ready to take action based on her words unless Lin Qingxue confessed.

Not only Molan, but Ye Ni and Ailin, through the corridor, pushed their glasses and prepared to jump out of bed, their eyes suggestive of the same intention.

"Ah!"

Under the piercing gazes of her roommates, Lin Qingxue's face turned crimson as she quickly leapt out of bed, grudgingly saying, "I'm not playing with you guys; what if I'm late?!"

Hao Jian was going to pick her up in half an hour, and she was still in bed. She didn't like making him wait. If she left the impression on Hao Jian that she's not punctual, she'd truly regret it.

"Hehe, so just make sure to clear things up when you get back, or else watch out tonight—I might pile a few extra blankets on you!"

Though it was September, the weather remained warm, and with nights in the twenties Celsius range, a few extra blankets could make anyone wake up from the heat.

Even if it's not hot enough to wake up, you'll be drenched in sweat by the time you get up in the morning.

Lin Qingxue, who had just rushed to the sink area to freshen up, heard this and couldn't help but smile wryly. It seemed there was no escaping this explanation.

Washing up, putting on makeup, slowly, twenty minutes passed. After applying Saint Laurent's number six lipstick, Lin Qingxue picked up her Chanel bag and headed out the door, clicking all the way to the school gate on her four or five-centimeter-high heels.

When she reached the school gate, she found that not far away, a group of people were pointing and staring at a luxury car with a tone of admiration.

Some of them even took out their portable SLR cameras, constantly snapping pictures of this luxury car. Judging by their work ID badges, they were obviously from the propaganda department of some club at this school.

This luxury car was, of course, Hao Jian's Ferrari Enzo, a model with fewer than three in all of Huaxia, its value and rarity being self-evident.

"Luckily, this girl wasn't late."

Sitting in the car, Hao Jian suddenly saw Lin Qingxue walking out from the school gate. His eyes lit up, and he started the car, slowly driving toward Lin Qingxue…

"Hey, isn't that girl the school beauty elected in this year's freshmen?"

"Wow, it really is her! Is the owner of this luxury car waiting for our school beauty?"

"This luxury car is an Enzo! There are fewer than three in all of Huaxia, and even with my father's billions, he can't even touch one corner… It seems the owner of this luxury car is worth over a billion."

"We can only say our school beauty is amazing, she can actually connect with such a wealthy person. But I think those who want to pursue the school beauty might as well give up."

"Hehe, if the school beauty didn't know this person with the luxury car, I might even try to pursue her, but seeing this, I'd better forget it. I don't want to get involved…"

Many of the students gathered at the school gate came from wealthy families, so they understood what a car like the Enzo represented, especially since there were only three in all of Huaxia.

"Hehe, Hao Jian!"

Upon seeing Hao Jian, Lin Qingxue giggled and then Hao Jian got out of the car to open the door for her, letting her in.

"So, where do you want to go for lunch?"

When it comes to eating, Hao Jian isn't sure where the good spots are in Hua City, but since Lin Qingxue is treating, she's naturally the one to decide where to eat.

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingxue paused for a moment and then said to Hao Jian: "In the suburbs of Hua City, there's a farmhouse restaurant I've heard about from my classmates. Apparently, the food there is quite good."

The classmate Lin Qingxue referred to was, of course, her roommate. She had come here to study from Sanshui City, and Molan was a local of Hua City who was also a foodie. She was quite knowledgeable about food and, upon hearing Lin Qingxue was looking for a place to eat, readily recommended this spot.

"A farmhouse restaurant? That could be fun to try."

Hao Jian rubbed his chin and then smiled as he started the car. He couldn't remember the last time he'd gone to such a place, so it seemed like a good time to visit one.

But before heading to the countryside farmhouse, Hao Jian needed to take Lin Qingxue to see Spice Ginger, as they'd gotten up early to check on Spice Ginger's condition at the hospital.

When she heard that Hao Jian was visiting a friend at the hospital, Lin Qingxue didn't mind. Under Hao Jian's guidance, they arrived at a private room in Hua City Hospital and met with Spice Ginger.

After checking Spice Ginger's injury and finding that he was recovering well and could be discharged in about half a month, Hao Jian was relieved.

Then the two left the hospital under Spice Ginger's amused gaze, driving toward the countryside farmhouse restaurant.

Even with the Enzo's speed, it took about forty minutes from the hospital to the countryside in Hua City's suburbs. So once they got on the interstate highway, Hao Jian pressed the Enzo's gas pedal all the way down, and the roar of the car's engine echoed around them, causing many drivers to stick their heads out, curiously watching as the Enzo sped away.

"Hao Jian, is it really okay to drive this fast?"

As they were nearing the suburbs, Lin Qingxue suddenly turned to Hao Jian and said.

Upon hearing this, Hao Jian smiled and replied, "No problem, it's so early in the morning, plus the rush hour is over, so there aren't many people on the road. Nothing's going to happen."

"But… but you're already going over two hundred, aren't you afraid the traffic police will come after you?"

Lin Qingxue, who had recently been busy obtaining her driver's license, put a lot of faith in the theory, and just now she had seen the road signs. The maximum speed on this road was supposed to be eighty, but Hao Jian was already at two-thirty…

This was speeding, and although she wasn't worried about Hao Jian getting into an accident, she was afraid the traffic police might come after him as that was their responsibility.
