Qian Qi opened the car door and sat inside. No wonder it’s a custom Hovercar—it perfectly adjusted the interior space according to her limb length, allowing her to maneuver the steering ball more comfortably.
"Let me take a look..." Qian Qi flipped through the manual. She hadn’t touched a Hovercar in a long time, her hands felt rusty, and she needed to refresh her memory.
Just at that moment, Qian Qi’s Light Brain received a call.
Su Ang’s voice from the other end was cold yet pleasantly melodious: "Did you receive the car?"
Qian Qi’s voice sounded like clattering pots and pans: "Received! It’s stunningly gorgeous, incredibly high-end, and fits my style perfectly! You went out of your way, senior! You’re the nicest person I’ve ever met!"
Su Ang’s thin lips involuntarily curled upward.
He had been praised as a good person by many before, but he never felt happy, perhaps because those people were sincere, yet he didn’t see himself as a good person.
But Qian Qi’s exaggerated praise, purely a formality, left him unburdened and even slightly amused.
He asked softly, "Do you need a coach?"
Qian Qi: "I do! I definitely do!!!"
Su Ang: "Alright, I’ll be there shortly."
Half an hour later, Qian Qi and the driver who had taught her to drive last time stared at each other.
Driver: "Didn’t you learn it last time?"
Qian Qi: "That was ages ago, already forgotten."
Driver: "Alright then... the usual routine, I sit in the passenger seat?"
Qian Qi: "Can I practice with your dilapidated car first?"
Qian Qi leaned gently on her silver pro max Hovercar, lovingly caressing it, "It’s new, too precious to practice with."
Driver: ...Understood.
After a few hours of practice in the sky, Qian Qi quickly regained her feel for it, able to evade and fly parallel freely.
"You can refer to the manual for automatic driving, as long as you don’t head somewhere remote, it’ll generally get you to the destination." The driver unfastened the seatbelt and was ready to shoo Qian Qi away, when he heard her say, "Driver buddy, do you have anything else to do?"
"Not at the moment..." the driver had just started speaking when Qian Qi said, "Great, then come home with me to pick up something and take it back to your young master as a thank-you gift!"
Su Ang went through all the trouble spending 1 billion extra, she had to give something in return?
"No need, our young master lacks nothing." The driver waved his hand, not looking down on Qian Qi—a poor student—but because Su Ang truly lacked nothing and didn’t need anyone else’s gifts.
Every year on Su Ang’s birthday, besides the gifts from the Sikong family master, all others were thrown into storage, later given to the servants as year-end bonuses.
"No way, your young master must lack something, just come along!" Qian Qi shook her head confidently.
Seeing Qian Qi actually question Su family’s wealth, the driver’s fighting spirit instantly surged, he roared and refuted, "There’s nothing in the world our young master lacks! Nothing! Absolutely nothing!"
"Why are you so stubborn?" Qian Qi’s competitive spirit also flared, she shouted back, "I said he lacks it so he does!"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" The driver swore to defend the Su family’s reputation, suddenly remembered something, glanced at Qian Qi uncertainly for a moment, then added confidently, "Doesn’t lack a girlfriend either! If he wanted one, he wouldn’t lack a girlfriend!"
Qian Qi pondered for two seconds then curiously asked, "What if it’s a boyfriend then?"
"Forget it, that’s not important." Seeing the driver about to roar again, Qian Qi immediately raised her hand to silence him, "If you’re not free, then let your young master come collect it himself."
The driver instantly fell silent, he didn’t dare let Su Ang come personally to collect it, so he obediently sat in the passenger seat, smiled, and said, "Suddenly, I feel young master needs this gift. Let’s go~"
Qian Qi shot him a speechless glance, then followed the manual to input the destination on the driving panel.
The black Hovercar automatically rose into the sky, heading towards Bright Orphanage, while Qian Qi pinched the manual and began studying the touch buttons, discovering a music function, she searched the panel for an icon and pressed it.
Unexpectedly, that button was not a music button, a male voice broadcast came out: "On November 21st, three medium A-level Demon Beast Tides suddenly occurred in Feng City Center, causing over 2300 awakened warrior deaths and more than 30,000 civilian deaths... With the assistance of the S-level Awakeners, the beast tide has successfully been quelled and the Gong family announced they will fully rebuild the Sealed City..."
21st? Isn’t that just two days ago?
Moreover, the Demon Beast Tide erupted in the city center? How come she hadn’t heard anyone mention this?
As Qian Qi frowned, she heard the driver beside her casually say, "What S-level Awakeners, clearly it’s our young master, who bribed the broadcast to hide his achievements again."
"Su Ang?" Qian Qi’s gaze fell on the broadcast button, contemplating.
Medium A-level Demon Beast Tide, at least 30 or so A-level Magic Beasts, the city center unlike the war zone doesn’t have awakened warriors stationed, he alone...
Can resolve three waves of medium A-level Demon Beast Tides?

Upon arrival at the orphanage, Qian Qi settled the driver then quietly slipped into the Vegetable Garden Dungeon.
Returning home, she planned to make some Spiritual Power Disorder treatment potions for Su Ang and see how the Magic God Grass was growing.
Strolling through the back garden’s Vegetable Garden Dungeon’s vegetable garden, Qian Qi noticed the Magic God Grass planted by Moyu had grown as tall as herself, a chain of Demon God Grass Leaves hanging on the green stalk, looking extremely ordinary, thus easily mixed up with other magic plants.
If one had to describe how ordinary it is to confuse it with other magic plants, likely someone who doesn’t farm or cook wouldn’t tell apart rapeseed, spinach, greens, and bok choy.
"Looks like it’s matured." Qian Qi poked the system panel and retrieved previously analyzed Magic God Grass information.
[Name: Cursed Magic God Grass
Planting Method: Cursed by the Moyu clan, it grows with near self-abusive tendencies to become a C-level Magic Plant.
Weakness: Due to the Moyu curse, from birth till death it cannot confuse Moyu for self-protection.]
Qian Qi took Qian Ba and Moyu out from the Beast Taming Space.
Seeing she was home, Qian Ba immediately cheered, scurrying on little legs to find his mom and siblings.
Qian Qi caught Moyu’s small paw as it descended, instructing, "Ya Ya, go call your little brothers over, pick the Demon God Grass leaves and bring them to my room."
"Sure~" Moyu flew into the air, screeching at the top of its lungs, and its little brothers who lived in the Black Forest flapped over, gathering around Moyu cawing loudly.
With Moyu there, the cursed Magic God Grass couldn’t release its self-protective hormones, making them the ideal ones to pick the Demon God Grass.
