Ghost Catching System
Chapter 149 - 149 Unlucky Show-off (2nd Update)_1
Qiu and Diao Chan were having a blast, and it was obvious that Diao Chan was extremely happy.
Chu Hao snickered, "Baby Diao Chan, how will you thank your master?"
Diao Chan's oval face turned red, soft and tender as though it could squeeze out water. She hung her head low, almost burying it in her chest, and said, "Master, how would you like your servant to thank you?"
Chu Hao rubbed his hands together with an evil grin. "What if Master helps you massage your chest, huh?"
"You're so bad, Master." Diao Chan turned her head and ran away.
"Baby Diao Chan, don't run."
"Master, come chase me; if you catch me, you can massage my chest."
Qiu remained silent, closing its eyes and thinking, This is so dirty. Can't you consider my underage feelings?
「The next morning.」
Chu Hao woke up and opened the door, only to see a person standing at the doorway. He almost mistook them for an apparition.
Li Yin stood at the door with panda eyes.
Dumbfounded, Chu Hao exclaimed, "Damn! What happened to you?"
Li Yin rubbed his dark circles and said, "Last night! I was in the underground garage, driving all night."
Speechless, Chu Hao placed his hand on Li Yin's head. "Are you out of your mind?"
Li Yin spread his hands with a sad expression. "You don't understand. For a car enthusiast, this is agony. My mood right now is lonelier than the ocean; my head is filled with luxury cars, and I can't shake them off."
Chu Hao coughed. "How about I let you drive one? I can't drive them all anyway."
Li Yin waved his hands. "I can't take that forbidden fruit."
This guy really was seriously ill.
"What forbidden fruit?"
Li Yin cried out, "I'm in despair! Even if you let me drive, I can't afford the gas!"
Chu Hao was speechless. Alright, Brother Hao understood his feelings; it was indeed quite a desperate situation.
Chu Hao patted Li Yin on the shoulder and said, "With Brother Hao here, this is nothing. I'll get you a gas card."
Li Yin immediately hugged Chu Hao's leg. "No, I can't take it! Brother Hao, don't force me."
"Are you crazy? I'm offering you a car to drive."
"I... I can't bear to drive such a nice car."
"You really are sick."
"Brother Hao, can I just come and see the cars every night? Just to look at them."
Chu Hao was speechless. This car fanatic really was burning up inside. He patted Li Yin on the shoulder and asked, "Can you drive?"
"Yes, I can."
"Alright, let's take one to school."
"Brother Hao, you are so mighty and majestic! Which one shall we take?"
"Damn! Didn't you say you couldn't bear to drive one?"
"It's not my car. Why would I not bear to drive it?"
Chu Hao was left speechless.
In the underground garage, Li Yin ran to a supercar, grinning from ear to ear. "Damn, driving this to school will definitely cause a sensation."
Shaking his head, Chu Hao pointed at a 1.5 million BMW. "Not that one. We'll take this car."
Li Yin, puzzled, asked, "Why, though?"
Chu Hao laughed. "You don't understand, do you? Let the Pretentious Expert teach you—acting pretentious should be done gradually. Being pretentious all at once is no fun. We need to cycle through being pretentious, taking a different car each day."
"That's so sensible, I'm speechless."
Li Yin had a driver's license. When he turned eighteen, his father's gift was for him to obtain it.
In the passenger seat, Chu Hao took out the Pretentious Dice, hoping for some good luck.
He threw the dice, and they finally landed on 'Unlucky Pretentiousness'. Chu Hao was speechless. What kind of luck is this? Am I going to be unlucky all day?
Chu Hao became vigilant. Are we going to get into a car accident? We're driving right now!
After a while, nothing happened, and they were already close to the school.
Chu Hao heaved a sigh of relief and sneered internally. The System is just bluffing. This 'bad luck' is just a gimmick to scare kids.
The two arriving at school in a car caused quite a stir. A BMW worth over 1.5 million was very eye-catching.
Although quite a few high school students drove to school, their cars usually weren't very expensive. Chu Hao's BMW, however, was worth 1.5 million on the market; it was impossible for it not to attract attention.
At the school gate, the security uncle stopped them. "Outsiders are not allowed to drive into the school," he said.
Rolling down the window, Chu Hao smiled and said, "Uncle, it's me."
The security uncle recognized them. "Eh... Little Maozi, how did you end up driving a car? Isn't this Small Silver?" he asked in surprise.
Li Yin cooperated well and said, "This car belongs to Chu Hao. I'm just a driver."
"DING... Host succeeded in being pretentious, obtaining 100 Pretentiousness Points."
Haha! Bad luck? Whatever! I'm still being pretentious!
Many students, seeing that it was a BMW driven by a student, were shocked and took out their phones to take pictures.
"Such a luxury car, and driven by a student! Who is showing off like this?"
"What's so strange about that? Qin Feng's sports car is much better than this."
"Speaking of Qin Feng, I haven't seen him in class for a while. I heard he's filming a movie. I really want to get his autograph; I might not get the chance later if I wait."
When they reached the parking lot, they found it was completely full.
Li Yin said incredulously, "No way, is the school's parking lot this packed?"
Having no choice, they had to park the car under a building in a quiet spot.
Just as they moved the car there, they heard a loud BANG—a tire had burst, startling Li Yin into jerking the steering wheel. As a newbie driver, he mistook the gas pedal for the brake.
With a BANG! the car crashed into a tree.
"F*ck!!" the two of them exclaimed in unison.
Chu Hao was somewhat speechless. So this is the 'bad luck'... but the impact is manageable. I can take it.
A car accident surely drew the attention of the other students. A crowd gathered around, pointing and mostly taking delight in their misfortune.
"Haha... Those two in the BMW are hilarious! They drove straight into a tree."
"Really unlucky. That must be a new car."
The security uncle ran over. Seeing the deformed front of the BMW, he said, his voice filled with disbelief, "You guys are really unlucky! I'm not sure who threw down those nails, but you just had to run over them."
Li Yin also felt a bit guilty. Chu Hao patted his shoulder and said, "It's not a big deal. Let's go to class."
He knew today was going to be unlucky, and this was already pretty mild.
The security uncle gave a thumbs-up. "Little Maozi, you have a great attitude. That's going to cost quite a bit to repair, isn't it?"
"Not too much, just a few tens of thousands, I guess."
The security uncle's mouth twitched. "Little Maozi," he said, "you've changed."
Just as the two of them were about to walk away, they heard another BANG.
They saw that a large potted plant had crashed down, creating a huge hole in the passenger-side window. If someone had been sitting there, they would have definitely been smashed into an idiot.
Cold sweat trickled down Chu Hao's forehead. I was supposed to be sitting right there! I would definitely have been hit! This is real misfortune! And we just got to school. Does it have to be this harsh?
They saw a figure running down from the teacher's building. Qiu Xueying, seeing it was Chu Hao's car, was also taken aback. She said anxiously, "Chu Hao, I'm so sorry! I'll have someone come and fix this later. It's so strange. That potted plant is usually on the balcony, and it's very heavy. How could it have fallen down?"
