From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3: Chapter 3: The Wind in My Hand Has a Shape

After Chen Mengyan left, Su Chen’s thoughts turned to his luxury car. Using the information provided by the system, he found the key to the Aston Martin DBX707 in a cabinet by the entryway, just as expected.

A man’s three great loves are, without a doubt, cars, guns, and balls!

Looking at the Aston Martin DBX707 key in his hand, Su Chen didn’t feel it was particularly stunning. The oval design and partial crystal casing gave it a rather simple look.

After fiddling with it for a moment, Su Chen couldn’t wait to go to the garage and see the first luxury car of his life.

He knew from a previous chat with Chen Mengyan that his house came with five private parking spaces. He figured his new ride was parked in one of them.

"My Aston Martin, where are you!" Su Chen muttered to himself.

Soon, Su Chen arrived at his private parking spaces. A yellow SUV was parked quietly in one of the spots.

"Holy crap, this color is too cool!"

The entirely yellow exterior was exactly to his liking.

As for the car’s specs and design, Su Chen was completely clueless.

For a wage slave who was still scrambling for money just yesterday, an Aston Martin was something he wouldn’t dare to dream of. At most, he’d watch videos about them online to satisfy his curiosity.

Su Chen’s original plan was just to earn some money and buy an affordable commuter car.

He circled the Aston Martin several times before finally opening the door with satisfaction and getting in.

The interior was quite unique. It was two-toned—Phantom Grey and Ivory White—creating a striking contrast with the yellow exterior.

"Holy crap, where’s the ignition on this thing!" Su Chen looked all around the steering wheel but couldn’t find the push-to-start button.

After searching for a bit... Su Chen finally found that the start button was on the center console.

’Alright... I guess I’m a little behind the times!’

"DBX707... engage!" Su Chen yelled with cringey excitement, his index finger pressing the start button.

"VROOOM~ VROOOM~"

The signature roar of the Aston Martin instantly filled the garage, and Su Chen immediately felt goosebumps prickle his arms.

That overwhelming feeling... Su Chen couldn’t find any words to describe it.

"This is so freakin’ cool!"

Su Chen gripped the steering wheel tightly, muttering "slowly release the brake, gently press the gas" under his breath.

The Aston Martin DBX707 slowly pulled out of the parking space.

Even though Su Chen had come to Shanghai to make a living right after high school, it didn’t stop him from getting his driver’s license.

He had his first job to thank for that—a night security guard. The pay wasn’t great, but he had a lot of free time, especially since he could slack off and sleep during the night shift.

He remembered an older security guard giving him the advice, saying something along the lines of "another skill is another path in life."

So, Su Chen would slack off and sleep at work at night, then head to driving school during the day. He got his license in less than two months.

As for why he was nervous driving... for one, he hadn’t driven a car in years since getting his license. Plus, this was a luxury car worth millions. If he scratched or dented it, wouldn’t he be devastated?

It would be a lie to say he wasn’t flustered at first, but after driving on the road for a while, Su Chen gradually got the hang of it.
