Minghao's delighted laugh filled the car as Twilight smoothly accelerated, the engine's purr deepening into a satisfied growl. The car responded to her touch like it had been waiting for exactly this, to be driven, to be unleashed, to fulfill its purpose.
The speed was exhilarating but controlled. Twilight's hands on the wheel were steady, her movements precise. She drove like someone who'd been trained properly, not like a teenager joyriding in a borrowed car.
Minghao pulled out her phone and angled it for a selfie, first just herself, grinning widely with the luxurious interior visible behind her, then a second one that captured all three of them. Qin Xinyu made a face in the background that was half-smile, half-concern, while Twilight kept her eyes on the road but flashed a peace sign.
Satisfied with the photos, Minghao quickly sent them to her mother and brothers before settling back to enjoy the ride.
