The car’s headlights were sowhat dazzling. Everyone just felt their eyes were briefly blinded by the headlights. Accompanied by the urgent braking sound, the sky completely darkened, and the tires screeched against the ground, as if sparks were shooting out from the tire edges—
"Screech—" with a sharp brake sound, the car executed a beautiful tail swing and parked steadily not far from everyone.
However, the car behind ca and failed to control the braking distance, continuing for another hundred ters before turning back.
Jiang Chengsi also thought the driver was Xiaosi, and swiftly walked to the car’s passenger seat, hurriedly opening the door.
"Fo... Fourth Lord?" Xiaosi’s face appeared not excited but rather excessively frightened.
"Why is it you?" Jiang Chengsi’s heart trembled slightly. He walked around the front of the car and only then saw clearly, through the windshield, the person in the driver’s seat. She was unbuckling her seatbelt, and their eyes t...
One was astonished and surprised, while the other still seed innocent and harmless.
He opened the car door and before he could speak, he heard her say:
"I’m so nervous that my palms are sweaty."
She seed afraid that Jiang Chengsi wouldn’t believe her and even opened her hands for him to check. He looked down at her, didn’t say a word, and suddenly grabbed her hand, pulling her out of the car.
The girl’s hand was warm and soft, almost boneless.
"Is there anything wrong?" Jiang Chengsi scrutinized her, she still had her low ponytail, ek and obedient.
"I’m fine." Her voice was soft and sticky.
"Do you know how to drive?"
"Just a little..."
Xiaosi got out from the passenger seat, his legs a bit weak. This last section of the road, it felt like the car was about to take off. It was his first ti sitting in such a fast car, but the girl beside him seed to grow more excited.
It was as if a wild nature hidden inside her was suddenly unleashed, leaving him dumbfounded.
He didn’t dare to show it. After all, he was supposed to be an experienced hand in car racing, being scared stiff by a girl, that’s embarrassing.
It was thrilling!
No one expected Xiaosi to co down from the passenger seat, which ant the one driving just now was...
The first car race ended without any cheers, everyone was dumbfounded and in utter disbelief.
They all felt like the world had beco unreal and fantastic.
...
The girl who was provoking just now sat in the car, completely unaware of what she had just been through, hands gripping the steering wheel tightly.
The biggest blow to a person is to be defeated in the field where they are most confident and proud.
At this mont, Jiang Chengsi was holding her hand tightly, the two standing under the streetlight, seed very close, there was an indescribable intimacy between them.
When she got out of the car, accepting the loss ant naturally having to soften up to her.
She smiled, saying sothing piercing:
"It’s just for fun, I wasn’t serious either, you don’t have to take winning or losing to heart."
The wind in the mountains was strong, and no one dared to speak.
This girl’s words, really impressive.
She wasn’t serious, yet she won the race, how outrageous.
Isn’t this the sa as stabbing a knife into soone’s chest? However, no one had much sympathy for this Kelly, after all, she brought it upon herself by demanding the race, and getting slapped in the face served her right.
Besides, winning or losing in a race is completely normal, being unable to afford to lose only makes one look down upon.
"Fourth Lord..." Kelly seed to have sothing to say to Jiang Chengsi, likely wanting to explain herself to avoid leaving a bad impression.
Jiang Chengsi did not spare her a glance, only looking at the person beside him, "Are you hungry?"
Everyone was stunned, completely ignored, at such a thrilling and tense mont, he actually only cared about whether she was hungry?
"A little."
"There’s a restaurant in Hexi that’s pretty good, want to try it out?"
She nodded.
Jiang Chengsi went to drive the car, and when she passed by Kelly, she said sothing softly that no one heard, but they just saw Kelly’s body jerk, her face turning paler.
Under the watching eyes of the crowd, they saw the girl straddle onto the back of Jiang Chengsi’s motorcycle, the taillight flashed a few tis, the motorcycle roared, leaving the mountains...
"Oh my, just left like that?"
"That was a bit thrilling, Xiaosi, you co over here, tell , how did she drive the car?"
"Where did Fourth Lord find her, do you all think, could this be the sa person who disrupted Fourth Lord’s club’s trial opening that day, hasn’t he been looking for her for a long ti? Now he’s finally found her."
"Who knows, but so people, oh, just got slapped too hard, she even said she wouldn’t play anymore, still insisted on bringing humiliation upon herself."
...
The matter quickly spread within the small circle, everyone said that Fourth Lord found himself a girlfriend who was really good at car racing.
**
Everyone started speculating about her identity, Jiang Chengsi naturally had his suspicions in his heart too. After arriving at the restaurant and entering a private room, she said she needed to go to the restroom. Jiang Chengsi took out his phone, ready to look at the previous club racing video.
Only then did he realize that the video on his phone seed to have been deleted.
Having been unable to find her all along, he had long given up, keeping the video only irritated him.
He quickly dialed Ruan ngxi’s number.
Jiang Chengsi completely forgot that today the Qi Family invited the Ruan Family trio to their ho for dinner, and the conversation amongst everyone was going just perfectly. Ruan ngxi’s phone vibrated.
"Sorry, I need to take this call." Ruan ngxi quickly got up.
Qi Zeyan frowned, wondering who the hell was being inconsiderate, only to hear Ruan ngxi saying in a suppressed voice, "Fourth Lord, what do you need?"
Qi Zeyan took a deep breath:
Jiang Xiaosi, are you doing this on purpose? Disrupting things related to my lifelong matters.
You really start looking for her as soon as it gets dark!
"...you want the video? I have saved it on the cloud, I will send one to you right away." Ruan ngxi, being an employee, naturally dared not ignore a call from the boss.
Because of this, Qi Zeyan furiously scolded soone in the group.
Continuously @Jiang Chengsi, demanding an explanation from him.
Jiang Chengsi responded with:
[I have serious business with her, can you grow up a bit.]
Qi Zeyan was dumbfounded, this is our family’s formal eting with the father-in-law’s family, and you ask to grow up?
[Jiang Chengsi, this grudge between us is huge now, I’m telling you, if sothing unexpected happens tonight, I won’t let you off.]
[Your lifelong happiness won’t be delayed by a word from , besides, how can a successful man be crushed by a phone call? Unless you’re useless.]
[...]
Qi Zeyan was infuriated, what’s with this guy? What kind of nerves did he hit?
He suddenly beca sharp-tongued, almost like Jiang Shiyi had possessed him.
Jiang Jinsang was just watching the drama unfold in the group, though he was quite curious, since Uncle was out dating, why was he contacting Ruan ngxi?
**
anwhile, on the mountain in Hexi, everyone was surrounding Kelly, asking her what the girl had quietly said to her earlier.
She kept provoking her to race against her, nothing more than to embarrass her in front of Jiang Chengsi, as Jiang Chengsi greatly valued racing.
Even if he didn’t mind, once this spread around the circle, even if she ended up with Jiang Chengsi, she would still be looked down upon.
Her car skills were sothing she had always been proud of.
Looking at the whole Beijing circle, there were almost no girls better than her, and even most boys weren’t her match.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had the confidence to do this.
Her most proud achievent was trodden on and shattered—
How mocking.
Her fingers clenched tightly, she kept silent.
What the girl said earlier still echoed in her heart at this mont:
"My hesitance wasn’t out of fear of you, just wanted to leave you so dignity. You think you’re professional, others might not be amateur. Never underestimate anyone around you, don’t be arrogant."
"If I’m unworthy of standing beside him, then you..."
"...are even more unworthy."
The voice was soft, carrying a gentle laughter, sound warm like a breeze on the mountain, seed it could be torn to pieces by the wind, yet it stabbed deep into her heart.
