Seeing Mu Wanqing break down so suddenly, the people surrounding her gradually came to the same conclusion.
Anyone would be overwhelmed after receiving something like this from their father.
For the people watching, the meaning was obvious.
This was not simply a wealthy father giving his daughter an expensive toy.
This was a father telling the whole world just how much he cherished her.
The surrounding crowd exchanged understanding glances.
Some smiled softly, while others quietly sighed.
The hotel butler stepped forward immediately and respectfully accepted the key box and the Hermès package from Andrew Wei.
At the same time, the lobby manager hurriedly instructed one of the employees, “Quickly.
Bring tissues for Miss Mu.” A beautifully packaged box of tissues was delivered within seconds.
Mu Wanqing stood beside the magnificent Bugatti, her shoulders trembling slightly as she wiped the tears from her face.
Inside her mind, System 888 was practically panicking.
[Child, do not cry anymore.
Look at you, your eyes are already red.]
Mu Wanqing sniffed, “Then whose fault is this?”
System 888 fell silent.
After a brief pause, it cautiously replied.
[Mine?]
Mu Wanqing almost laughed through her tears, “Exactly.”
System 888 immediately became quiet.
Meanwhile, Rain was standing frozen behind her phone.
Even she had become emotional.
She had entered the livestream industry because she wanted to make a living.
She had seen wealthy people before.
She had watched expensive cars being displayed online.
She had seen influencers flaunting designer handbags and luxury watches.
But this scene felt different.
Perhaps it was because the girl standing beside that unimaginably expensive supercar looked so young.
Perhaps it was because Mu Wanqing had cried not for the car itself, but for the affection behind it.
Rain quietly wiped the corner of her eye.
Behind the camera, however, the livestream had completely exploded.
The comment section descended into chaos.
(I do not know why, but I am crying too.)
(Same!
My father is sitting beside me right now, and he suddenly looks guilty.)
(Forget the emotional part.
I have completely fallen in love with that car!
I searched for it online.
That Bugatti is simply a dragon among supercars!)
(I heard that a wealthy collector from Singapore once offered tens of millions of dollars for one of these and still could not get it.)
(Miss Mu does not seem to be from Shanghai.)
(Did you see the license plate?
It is registered in Beijing.
Maybe she is from Beijing.)
(Shanghai may be more prosperous and glamorous, but when it comes to old money, legacy, and powerful families, Beijing is another world entirely.)
(That makes sense.
Look at how low-key she is.
She is wearing Zara, yet her father casually sends her a Bugatti worth nearly a hundred million yuan.
She must belong to one of those hidden aristocratic families.)
(I do not care where she comes from.
I just want to see the inside of that car!)
(Brother upstairs, you are dreaming too much.
Seeing it from this far is already a blessing.
You want Sister Rain to climb inside a ninety-million-yuan Bugatti?
Our Sister Rain has a weak heart.)
Rain immediately nodded when she saw that comment, “Exactly!
I have a very fragile heart.”
The viewers burst into laughter.
She had already carefully shifted the camera away from Mu Wanqing.
Earlier, when Mu Wanqing had stepped out of the hotel, Rain had been too shocked and had accidentally turned the camera toward her.
For a few seconds, the livestream audience had clearly seen her face.
But after Sister Cui whispered a warning through the earpiece, Rain immediately changed the angle.
Now, the viewers could only see Mu Wanqing from behind.
Rain sincerely hoped that no one had taken a screenshot.
If someone had captured Miss Mu’s face and uploaded it onto the internet, and the girl’s family considered it an invasion of privacy…
Rain did not even want to imagine the consequences.
She shivered slightly, “Alright, alright.
Everyone has seen enough.
Let us return to our original mission.” She lifted the camera and smiled brightly, “Today, I’m supposed to review the food at the Bvlgari Hotel.”
The comments immediately erupted again.
(No!
Sister Rain, we want to watch the car!)
(Exactly!
We do not need to see the interior anymore.
Just let us admire it from far away!)
(Maybe we can watch her drive it?)
(Please, Sister Rain!
Food can wait.
A once-in-a-lifetime Bugatti cannot!)
Almost immediately, another wave of virtual gifts flooded across the screen.
Rain’s eyes widened, “Hey!
Stop!
Stop sending gifts!” But the gifts continued.
Rain felt cold sweat forming on her forehead, “Everyone, please calm down.
That girl looks younger than me.
If I keep filming, I might really get myself into trouble.” She lowered her voice, “What if her family becomes unhappy?
We should respect her privacy.
Aiya, do not make things difficult for your Sister Rain.”
The viewers gradually understood.
A few people continued trying to persuade her, but their comments were quickly buried beneath thousands of others.
Eventually, the requests became less aggressive.
Meanwhile, ten full minutes had passed before Mu Wanqing finally calmed herself down.
She took a deep breath and wiped the remaining tears from her cheeks.
System 888 spoke again.
This time, its voice was much gentler.
[Child, would you like to drive it?]
Mu Wanqing blinked, “Drive it?”
[Yes.
Take it out and experience the feeling.]
Mu Wanqing immediately shook her head, “I do not even know how to drive an ordinary car, let alone a supercar of this caliber.
And have you forgotten?
I am only seventeen.
I am still too young to legally obtain a driver’s license.”
System 888 sounded completely unconcerned.
[You do not need to worry about that.
I can drive the car for you.]
Mu Wanqing froze, “You can drive?”
[Of course.
I can control the movement of your hands and legs while you just seat in the driver’s seat.]
Mu Wanqing’s expression immediately changed.
Her eyes widened, “You can control my body?”
System 888 quickly replied.
[No!
Not your entire body.
I can only assist with limited motor control, such as your hands and legs.
And even that is heavily restricted by System Realm laws.
I cannot interfere with the host’s body without permission.
The only exceptions are when the host is unconscious, facing immediate mortal danger, and there is no other way to save her.
If I deliberately take control of your limbs without your authorization, I can be forcibly removed from your system position and sentenced under System Realm law.]
Mu Wanqing relaxed slightly, “Then how exactly would this work?”
System 888 immediately regained its enthusiasm.
[You simply sit in the driver’s seat and give me permission.
Your daddy is a Grandmaster-level driving system.
In terms of skill, I can challenge even the best professional formula racing drivers in your world.]
Mu Wanqing raised an eyebrow, “Really?
You are not exaggerating?”
System 888 became offended.
[Child, how can you doubt your father’s abilities?]
Mu Wanqing pressed her lips together, trying not to laugh.
System 888 continued eagerly.
[You have spent an extremely long time studying.
Your mind needs rest.
I specifically arranged this car because I learned that many wealthy young people enjoy driving as a way to relax.
Besides, it is already nine in the evening.
There should be fewer vehicles on the road.]
Mu Wanqing looked toward the magnificent teal-colored Bugatti.
Her heart began beating faster.
She had never even driven a normal car.
But now she had the opportunity to sit inside one of the rarest automobiles in the world.
After thinking for several seconds, she finally nodded, “Alright.”
System 888 immediately became excited.
At that moment, Andrew Wei, who had been standing nearby, noticed Mu Wanqing’s dazed expressions and hesitated.
Then he politely cleared his throat, “Miss Mu?”
Mu Wanqing immediately returned to her senses.
For a moment, she felt slightly embarrassed, “Sorry.
I was distracted for a moment.”
Andrew smiled professionally, “It is perfectly alright, Miss Mu.”
Mu Wanqing nodded gratefully, then she turned toward Andrew Wei and the entire delivery team, “Thank you for all your efforts.”
Andrew immediately bowed slightly, “It was our honor to serve you, Miss Mu.”
She then turned toward her butler, “Please take everyone to dinner.
It is my thank-you treat.
They have worked hard.
Also give them red envelopes, add it on my tab.”
The butler immediately bowed, “Yes, Miss Mu.
I will make the arrangements immediately.”
Andrew Wei was slightly surprised, “Miss Mu, that is unnecessary.
We were only carrying out our duties.”
Mu Wanqing shook her head, “Work is work.
Appreciation is appreciation.
Please do not refuse.”
Andrew hesitated for a moment before smiling, “Then…
we will accept Miss Mu’s kindness.
Thank you very much.”
The hotel manager, who had been standing nearby, immediately seized the opportunity, “Please rest assured, Miss Mu.
Wei and his team.”
Within moments, hotel employees began guiding Andrew Wei and the delivery personnel toward the restaurant.
Mu Wanqing picked up one of the car keys and handed the remaining items to her butler.
She gave him several quiet instructions before finally turning toward the Bugatti.
Her heart was beginning to beat faster again.
She was actually going to sit inside it.
However, just as she turned around, her eyes caught sight of a young girl with slightly chubby cheeks.
The girl was holding a phone in front of her face while speaking enthusiastically to the camera.
She was clearly livestreaming.
Mu Wanqing slowed her steps.
The slightly chubby girl standing near the entrance looked vaguely familiar, but for the moment, Mu Wanqing could not place her.
The girl was enthusiastically speaking to her livestream audience, holding her phone at an angle as she filmed herself against the magnificent exterior of the Bvlgari Hotel.
When she turned slightly and her face was fully revealed beneath the bright lights of the Bund, recognition suddenly struck Mu Wanqing.
Her eyes widened.
Then they sparkled.
Isn’t she…
Yuyu?
Mu Wanqing stared at her in disbelief.
No.
At this point in time, she was not yet the Yuyu whose name would later become known throughout the Chinese entertainment industry.
The legendary actress of Mu Wanqing’s previous life.
Mu Wanqing remembered her very clearly.
In the years to come, Yuyu would rise through the entertainment industry with astonishing speed.
In barely two years, she would go from being an unknown newcomer to becoming one of the most talked-about young actresses in the country, eventually winning the prestigious title of Best Actress.
But Mu Wanqing’s admiration for her had never come from fame.
It had begun at a small noodle shop in Pengpu.
In her previous life, she had worked tirelessly at that old woman’s noodle shop.
One day, after hours of work, Mu Wanqing had accidentally delivered the wrong order to a customer.
It had been a small mistake.
But the old woman had treated it as though Mu Wanqing had committed some unforgivable crime.
In front of the entire shop, she had cursed and humiliated her.
Her voice had been loud and vicious, filled with the crude expressions she had brought with her from the countryside.
At that time, Mu Wanqing had simply stood there with her head lowered.
She had been used to it.
But then, someone had stood up for her.
A young woman sitting among the customers had risen from her seat.
She had looked at the old woman calmly and said that Mu Wanqing was doing the work of several employees alone.
Under such circumstances, was it really surprising that she occasionally made a mistake?
The old woman had refused to back down.
But the young woman had not retreated either.
She had calmly warned the old woman that excessive exploitation of an employee could have legal consequences.
If the old woman continued treating Mu Wanqing that way, she could report the matter to the relevant authorities.
The old woman had immediately become much more cautious.
Of course, her personality had not changed overnight.
She still complained and scolded with her sharp tongue.
But from that day onward, she stopped using the particularly vicious and abusive words she had previously thrown at Mu Wanqing.
That single act of kindness had remained in Mu Wanqing’s heart.
Later, she had gone looking for the woman who had defended her.
At the time, the woman had been wearing a mask and oversized sunglasses, hiding her appearance so thoroughly that no one in the noodle shop had recognized her.
But when Mu Wanqing finally found her and expressed her gratitude, she discovered that the woman was Yuyu.
That day, Yuyu had even offered to help her.
But Mu Wanqing had refused.
Her experiences had made her overly cautious.
She did not dare accept kindness easily, especially from someone she barely knew.
Besides, she had always believed that the entertainment industry belonged to another world.
Thinking about it now, Mu Wanqing smiled faintly.
She looked at the young girl standing before her.
Yuyu was still young and still unknown.
Still far away from the dazzling future that awaited her.
But Mu Wanqing suddenly remembered something.
Before entering the entertainment industry, Yuyu had been known by another name.
Rain.
She had once been a popular food livestreamer.
So this is how it was.
Mu Wanqing’s smile deepened.
In her previous life, Rain had once helped her when no one else was willing to stand beside her.
Now that fate had given Mu Wanqing another life, perhaps she should at least return the kindness with a simple greeting.
After all, judging from the difference between their lives now, there might not be another opportunity for them to meet.
Mu Wanqing turned around, “Wait, Rain.”
Rain was in the middle of enthusiastically explaining the food she had researched at the Bvlgari Hotel when she suddenly heard someone call her name.
She turned instinctively.
The moment she saw Mu Wanqing walking directly toward her, her entire body froze.
Her eyes widened and a chill ran down her spine.
It’s over.
That was the only thought remaining in her mind.
She has come to confront me.
Rain swallowed nervously.
In her panic, she completely forgot that her livestream was still running.
Not far away, Sister Cui saw the scene and nearly stopped breathing even her face turned pale.
The livestream comment section immediately exploded.
(What is happening?
Why does Sister Rain look so frightened?)
(Someone called her name.
Is everything alright?)
Rain immediately lowered her head, “M…Miss, I truly did not mean anything by it.
My viewers were simply curious, so I only showed them your car from a distance.
I did not approach you, and I did not intentionally record your face.
Please do not misunderstand.”
(Wait…
is that the young lady from earlier?)
(The owner of the Bugatti?!)
(Why is she walking toward Sister Rain?)
(Do not tell me she is angry because Sister Rain livestreamed her surprise!)
(Oh no.
Did we put Sister Rain in trouble?)
(It is all our fault!
We were the ones begging her to stay and watch.)
(How can such a wealthy young lady be so petty?
Sister Rain only filmed the car from far away.
It is not as though we were trying to steal it.)
Mu Wanqing, of course, had absolutely no idea that she had already been promoted to the role of villain inside the livestream.
She stopped in front of Rain and frowned slightly, “What are you talking about?
I am not here because of that.”
Rain blinked.
Mu Wanqing smiled.
The smile was so bright and sincere that Rain was caught completely off guard, “I only came over to say hello.”
Rain remained silent for several seconds.
Mu Wanqing continued casually, “I am your big fan.
I watch your livestream sometimes.”
The air became silent.
Rain stared at her.
The livestream audience stared through their screens.
Even Sister Cui, standing at a distance, stared with her mouth slightly open.
Rain slowly pointed at herself, “Me?”
Mu Wanqing nodded, “Yes.
You.”
Rain looked completely stunned, “Y…You are my fan?”
Mu Wanqing smiled again, “Of course.”
Rain’s mind completely stopped functioning.
The young woman standing before her owned one of the rarest cars in the world.
She had just received a ninety-million-yuan Bugatti from her father.
And now she was saying that she watched Rain’s food livestreams?
Rain could not process it.
Her face slowly turned red, “You…
you are really not angry?”
Mu Wanqing tilted her head slightly, “Why would I be angry?”
Rain hesitated, “You are not angry that I livestreamed what happened?”
Mu Wanqing shook her head, “Of course not.”
She glanced toward Rain’s phone.
The livestream viewer count was still rising rapidly, and comments continued flowing across the screen.
Suddenly, an idea entered Mu Wanqing’s mind.
Her eyes brightened.
She looked toward the magnificent Bugatti Centodieci waiting outside the hotel.
Then she turned back toward Rain, “Actually…
Would you like to go for a ride with me?”
Rain froze.
The livestream froze.
For a full second, the entire comment section went completely silent.
Then…
It exploded.
(WHAT?!)
(SISTER RAIN, WHAT DID SHE JUST SAY?!)
(DID SHE JUST INVITE YOU INTO THE BUGATTI?!)
(WAKE UP!
SISTER RAIN, YOU HAVE WON THE LOTTERY OF LIFE!)
(I TAKE BACK EVERYTHING I SAID ABOUT HER BEING PETTY!)
(SISTER RAIN!
GET IN THE CAR!
DO NOT ASK QUESTIONS!
RUN!)
(This is the first time in my life I have been jealous of a food livestreamer.)
Rain stood there with her mouth slightly open.
Her brain had completely stopped working.
She looked at Mu Wanqing, then at the Bugatti.
Then back at Mu Wanqing.
Finally, she swallowed, “Miss Mu…
Are you…
are you serious?”
Mu Wanqing smiled knowingly, “Do I look like I am joking?”
Rain’s eyes slowly widened.
she might actually become the luckiest livestreamer in all of Shanghai.
Sister Cui, who was standing some distance away, was even more excited than Rain herself.
The moment she heard Mu Wanqing’s invitation through the livestream, she nearly screamed into Rain’s earpiece, “Say yes, Rain!
Get into that car immediately!
Aiyaa, what are you waiting for?
Do you know what kind of opportunity has fallen from the sky?
I am calling the management team right now!” Sister Cui cut her off without hesitation.
“Tell them to push your livestream on Weibo immediately.
A food streamer from our company is about to ride in a Bugatti Centodieci!
If we do not seize this traffic, then we might as well resign and go home to grow sweet potatoes!”
Before Rain could say another word, the call disconnected.
Sister Cui had already turned around and begun making frantic phone calls.
Within moments, Rain’s management company was thrown into complete chaos.
“What did you say?”
“Rain is sitting in what?”
“A Bugatti Centodieci?”
“Stop asking questions and verify the livestream!”
The management team scrambled into action.
Phones began ringing throughout the office, employees rushed between departments, and the social-media team immediately began preparing promotional material.
Opportunities like this did not come twice.
A livestreamer riding inside one of the rarest automobiles in the world was not merely entertainment.
It was traffic.
And on the internet, traffic meant money.
Meanwhile, Rain had already climbed into the passenger seat.
The moment she entered the car, her entire body stiffened.
She sat upright with her hands carefully folded over her lap, afraid to touch anything unnecessarily.
Even her back barely rested against the seat.
The interior surrounding her was so luxurious that she suddenly felt as though she had entered a museum rather than a car.
Rain swallowed.
She did not even dare breathe too heavily.
What if she accidentally damaged something?
Could she afford to pay for it?
Probably not even if she sold herself ten times over.
Beside her, Mu Wanqing sat behind the steering wheel.
Following System 888’s instructions, she placed her hands on the wheel.
Then, almost immediately, she felt something strange.
Her hands and legs gradually became numb.
Mu Wanqing’s expression changed slightly.
Inside her mind, she asked cautiously, “daddy, are you absolutely sure this is safe?”
System 888 immediately replied with confidence.
[Of course.
How could your father possibly place his precious daughter in danger?
Even if the sky were to fall, Daddy would hold it up for you.]
Mu Wanqing’s lips twitched.
She was still not accustomed to the system’s obsession with calling itself her father.
However, before she could argue with him, the engine came to life.
The deep, powerful sound of the Bugatti filled the air.
Rain immediately held her breath.
Outside the hotel, countless people instinctively stepped back.
Then, under System 888’s control over Mu Wanqing’s motor movements, the car slowly began moving forward.
The Bugatti Centodieci glided out of the Bvlgari Hotel premises.
The moment its wheels touched the streets of Shanghai, an entirely different storm began brewing online.
The first Weibo post from Rain’s management company appeared less than ten minutes later.
The title alone was enough to attract attention.
+++A popular food livestreamer is currently riding inside China’s only Bugatti Centodieci!+++
The moment the post appeared, the comments exploded.
(What Bugatti Centodieci?
Are you people drunk?)
(You must have mistaken the model.
The Centodieci is one of the rarest cars in the world.
There has never been any news of someone owning one in China.)
(It is true!
Go into Rain’s livestream and see for yourselves!
Click the link in that post.)
(The interiors of several Bugatti models look similar.
The car has not even been shown clearly from the inside.
How can you be certain that it is a Centodieci?)
Just when the doubters were beginning to dominate the discussion, someone uploaded a photograph and a video.
The picture showed the massive delivery truck parked outside the Bvlgari Hotel and inside it was the Bugatti Centodieci.
The second video showed the sleek teal-colored supercar slowly being brought down from the container.
The comments immediately changed.
(The photographs and video were taken by me personally.
I witnessed everything outside the Bvlgari Hotel.
China now has a Bugatti Centodieci.
If I am lying, may lightning strike me!)
Another commenter quickly replied.
(Exactly!
I watched the entire thing through Rain’s livestream.
The car was a surprise from a father to his daughter!)
(What?)
(Not only that, the license plate was another shock.
It is registered with the number 8888.)
The commenter continued excitedly.
(A Bugatti Centodieci together with a Beijing 8888 license plate?
The value of that combination is simply terrifying.
Forget ordinary luxury apartments; this thing is probably more expensive than a top floor apartment in Tomson Reverie!)
Several screenshots soon followed.
The screenshots had clearly been captured from Rain’s livestream.
In one of them, a slender young girl’s silhouette could be seen standing beside the car.
The internet immediately became curious.
(Do not tell me that little girl is the one who received the car?)
(She is, and let me tell you something.
She is unbelievably beautiful.)
(How beautiful?)
The commenter seemed to hesitate before replying.
(The kind of beautiful that makes you forget what you were doing.
She appeared on the livestream for only a few seconds, and I was so stunned that I forgot to take a screenshot.)
The comments immediately became even more chaotic.
(She must be the daughter of some Middle Eastern oil tycoon.)
(No, she is Chinese.)
(Then who is she?)
(People are speculating that she might be from Beijing.
The license plate is registered there.)
(That makes sense.)
The discussion continued to grow.
It was already past nine in the evening, one of the busiest periods for Weibo users, and the timing could not have been more perfect.
More and more people joined the conversation.
Within minutes, hundreds of thousands of comments appeared beneath the posts.
Then the topic entered the trending rankings.
Less than half an hour later, it had climbed to the second position on Weibo’s hottest trending list.
Several hashtags began circulating rapidly.
#China’sFirstBugattiCentodieci
#DaddySpoilsHisPrincessWithABugatti
#BugattiCentodieci8888
The entire platform was in chaos.
Then came the final spark.
Someone uploaded a video of the Bugatti Centodieci driving through the streets of Shanghai.
The video was taken from another vehicle.
Under the glow of the city’s streetlights, the teal-colored supercar moved smoothly through the night traffic.
Its low, aggressive body reflected the lights of Shanghai like a jewel moving through the darkness.
For a brief moment, the surrounding traffic seemed almost ordinary.
The comment section beneath the video was filled with sighs and admiration.
(Beautiful.)
(This is not a car.
This is art.)
(A dragon among automobiles.)
(I would be satisfied just seeing it once in my lifetime.
Please upload more videos.)
It truly was a feast for the eyes.
At the same time, in another part of Shanghai, Chen Gang was preparing for Collage entrance examination.
He had just finished one more topic when his phone suddenly began vibrating repeatedly.
Once…
Twice….
Then continuously.
Chen Gang frowned, “What the hell is happening?”
His WeChat notifications continued pouring in.
With a sigh, he casually unlocked his phone.
One of his group chats was showing 99+ unread messages.
The group’s name was:
‘Young Masters of Shanghai’
Chen Gang lazily opened the chat and read.
His body immediately froze, and eyes widened as he immediately sat upright, “What?”
The group chat was overflowing with messages.
“Have you seen Weibo?”
“Bugatti Centodieci in Shanghai!”
“Whose car is that?”
“Apparently some girl received it as a gift from her father.”
“Beijing license plate.
8888.”
“Could she belong to one of those hidden families?”
Chen Gang’s expression changed with every message he read.
His fingers moved rapidly as he immediately opened Weibo.
Then he saw everything.
The trending topics, the videos, the photographs, the livestream screenshots.
The mysterious young girl standing beside the world’s rarest Bugatti.
Chen Gang stared at the screen for several seconds.
Then, suddenly, he jumped out of bed, “Hahaha!” His laughter echoed throughout the room.
He began pacing back and forth excitedly, almost dancing in place.
His eyes shone with excitement.
He still couldn’t believe, his dream car was in China.
And that too in Shanghai.
Chen Gang’s heart began pounding, “This is going to be interesting.”
Without wasting another second, he opened his contacts.
The first person he called was Zhang Jianjun.
