Chapter 19 - Chapter 19: Novice Female Driver

Character Level 5 (271,087/100,000,000).

Idle income: 6.5 yuan/second. Spending Rebate permission upgraded to Intermediate (1-5x rebate). Rebate limit is twice the monthly quota. This Month's Cumulative: (3,240,000/32,400,000)

Available Draws: 1.

Wu Yun didn't use the draw. Instead, he continued to upgrade his stats, spending 3 million to raise his Appearance to 82. He then started allocating points to Stamina and Constitution, spending 1.8 million to raise both to 79.

EXP +3,000,000 +1,800,000, (5,071,087/100,000,000), Balance: 38,300,030.5 yuan.

Wu Yun looked at himself in the mirror, noticing there was less fat on his face. The lines and angles of his features were more defined, and his acne and acne scars had vanished completely.

Wu Yun admired himself, 'Damn, I'm handsome!'

Wu Yun actually wanted to enhance his stats even more, but he forced himself to stop when he remembered the bike-sharing plan would still cost a lot of money.

"System, start the draw!"

"Start!... Stop!"

"Congratulations, Host. You have drawn Master Level Driving Skills! Value: 10,000,000"

'This... is a pleasant surprise!' he thought. 'I just bought a supercar. With my previous driving skills, it would've taken a while to get used to its handling.'

Now he had drawn a Master Level skill on par with a top-tier professional racer. Wu Yun could confidently say that he was ready to hit the track.

"Host, do you wish to accept?"

"Accept." As soon as Wu Yun spoke, he felt a wave of dizziness, but the feeling disappeared in an instant.

His mind was suddenly filled with high-end driving techniques: drifting around corners, performing rapid U-turns, handling death-defying speeds... and so on. It felt as though he had trained for a long time, and these maneuvers were now second nature.

Wu Yun made up his mind. Once he got the Lamborghini, he had to take it for a spin on a racetrack. Anything less would be a disservice to the car.

After reveling in his Master Level skills for a moment, Wu Yun remembered his plans for Wu Ying and Jiang Xinyi.

He opened the system store again and mentally navigated to the technical documents section.

Search Keywords: Weibo, Influencer, Influencer Marketing, Store Reviews

A massive list of results appeared, leaving Wu Yun dazzled.

Most were related to his search. 'Huh! This one looks good!'

Influencer Agency Business Plan -- 500,000

The price wasn't high. Wu Yun glanced at the summary: it was full of ideas for expanding popularity, monetization strategies, and concepts for developing their own products.

He took one look and bought it without hesitation.

He considered that he had no management experience. He was about to start a business and become a boss; if he didn't understand management, he could easily fall flat on his face.

Wu Yun discovered that the levels for these kinds of skills were different from ordinary ones. The level names and prices for business management were vastly different.

Skills: Business Management (Beginner: 100,000 - Intermediate: 1,000,000 - Advanced: 10,000,000 - Master Level: 100,000,000 - Divine Level: 1,000,000,000)

He decided to spend another million yuan on the Intermediate level.

Intermediate Business Management: A comprehensive skill that allows one to effortlessly manage a company of up to 500 people.

System EXP +1,500,000.

「Back in Jingyang」

Wu Yun's life seemed to have returned to normal. The experiences of the past few days in Rongcheng felt like a distant dream.

Wu Yun called his instructor a day in advance to let him know he was coming to practice.

The next morning, Wu Yun arrived promptly at the Chengnan Driving School. Coach Wang was already waiting in the usual spot.

"Morning, Coach," Wu Yun greeted, holding breakfast in his hand.

"Morning. Where'd you run off to this time? I've scheduled your Subject 1 exam for tomorrow morning and your Subject 2 exam for the morning after that. You won't have any problem with Subject 1, right?" Coach Wang asked.

"No problem!" 'Even if there was a problem,' Wu Yun thought, 'it's nothing a little money can't solve.'

"Good! That's good!"

Just then, the familiar Mercedes S600L pulled up next to the trainer car. Qi Fei was dressed simply today, in just a T-shirt and shorts.

After his two-day crash course on luxury goods in Rongcheng, Wu Yun recognized that both her shirt and shorts were from high-end brands.

Wu Yun activated his Intermediate Detection Glasses and took a look.

'She really is a top student from the Modu Drama Academy,' Wu Yun marveled.

"Eldest Young Master Wu, back from fooling around in Rongcheng? Did you get plastic surgery? How'd you get so much handsomer!" Qi Fei looked Wu Yun up and down, noticing his outfit was worlds apart from before and his looks had improved significantly.

"Haha! I've always been handsome, I just didn't bother to dress up before," Wu Yun explained.

"Alright, save it for the car! Qi Fei! You're driving!" Coach Wang pulled open the passenger door and got in.

Qi Fei's smile froze on her face. The memory of the terror that had dominated her past few days on the road made her flustered.

Seeing this, Wu Yun, seated in the back, tried to comfort her. "Senior, don't be nervous. Everyone learns bit by bit. When I started, I was even more of a wreck than you. My mind would go completely blank the moment I got in the car. You're much smarter than me, so you'll definitely learn fast. Take it slow! At least you know what the gas pedal and steering wheel are."

"Believe in yourself. If I'm not scared, what do you have to be afraid of?"

A notification appeared on his still-active glasses: Qi Fei Affinity +5. Current Affinity: 40.

............

"Didn't you eat this morning? Step on the gas! Step on the gas!"

........

"See that car parked up ahead?" Coach Wang asked.

Qi Fei was a picture of nervousness. Despite the AC, beads of sweat dotted her forehead. "I see it!" Her voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, but Coach Wang still heard her.

"Ram it!" Coach Wang commanded with a wave of his hand.

"Huh? That's a bad idea, we'll get in an accident!" Qi Fei exclaimed in shock.

"If it's a bad idea, then why don't you know to hit the brakes sooner?!" Coach Wang roared.

The trainer car screeched to a sudden halt, scaring the few cars behind it into swerving into other lanes.

..........

"Qi Fei, are you trying to fly a plane? Slow down! You're about to yank the steering wheel off!"

..........

A trip that should have taken ten minutes was forcefully extended to over half an hour by Qi Fei.

Wu Yun had also gone back on his promise from before the drive. His toes were curled tightly the entire time, and he had nearly crushed the grab handle above his door.

The moment the car stopped, Wu Yun threw open the door and scrambled toward a tree on the roadside. He propped himself up with one hand on the trunk and the other on his knee.

"BLEGH… URRRGH…"

Wu Yun threw up all the breakfast he had just eaten. He only started to recover after his stomach was completely empty.

Coach Wang didn't look too good either, but having seen it all, his tolerance was much higher than Wu Yun's. He stepped out of the car, gazed into the distance, and blew a smoke ring. "Wu Yun, feeling better? Once you are, it's your turn to practice. Qi Fei, you stay in the passenger seat and learn a thing or two!"

After speaking, Coach Wang walked over to the other instructors, leaving a mortified Qi Fei behind.
