It was the most notorious illegal street car race in Dragon City, started by rich, young and thrill-seeking car-racing enthusiasts in the city.
There was only one grand prize, which was one million RMB. Therefore, every partic.i.p.ant would exhaust their means and do everything they could to win the bountiful reward. There were casualties and injuries each time.
The rumbles of the car engines intertwined with the music. The crowd’s excitement lit up the dark night.
Su Qianxun drove the car to the starting point. A staff member on site was speaking to his colleague on a walkie-talkie to make final confirmation on a few things before the race started.
The young men and women around her were cheering with excitement. The beautiful dancers on the stereos started dancing even more provocatively. Some of them had already taken off their bikini tops and were waving them like flags.
Su Qianxun sat in the car expressionlessly. A curvaceous blonde woman sashayed past her headlights and stopped in the middle of the track. She raised the veil in her hand and waved it…
Ten cars sped forward right at the same time…
Su Qianxun was not good at a lot of things, but she knew how to race. Not many people knew about that.
After driving along a flat, empty road, the ten cars entered a mountain drive, one after another. There were five cars in front of Su Qianxun. She began switching gears and accelerated skillfully. Before the first turn, she easily overtook one of the cars ahead of her.
The racers behind Su Qianxun were astounded. Initially, they did not even see her as a compet.i.tor due to her old junk car. It was because even though car-racing was all about skills, the condition of the vehicle was important too. All their cars had been modified and were installed with the most advanced and powerful engines in the world. However the old piece of junk easily overtook one of those cars.
The racer behind Su Qianxun tried to overtake her multiple times, but she blocked him every time.
Su Qianxun stared ahead expressionlessly. Her speed gradually increased. She switched gears again, stomped on the gas pedal, and spun the steering wheel in her hands fiercely. After a skillful drift, she overtook another car.
The young woman smiled a little. Fortunately, even though she had not been driving for quite some time, her driving skills had not gotten rusty at all. She fixed her eyes on the taillight of the car in front of her. There were three more cars ahead!
The first four cars were very close to each other. The other cars were also relentlessly chasing after them. Su Qianxun recalled that the person who taught her how to race had told her not to pay attention to her compet.i.tors. Instead, she should only pay attention to herself, because the only person she needed to surpa.s.s was herself!
After two turns, she overtook two more cars with her superb driving skills.
She had not even realized before this that the techniques her mentor taught her were so impressive. After all, most of her compet.i.tors could be considered professional car racers!
Now, she just had to overtake the car in front of her to win the prize!
The aerial shot appeared on the screen. All the spectators fixed their eyes on the screen. Everyone was astonished at the impressive driving skills of the driver of the “old junk”. None of them had expected her to be the dark horse tonight…
The cheeky expression on Xiao Wuxie’s face slowly turned grim as well. But soon enough, he smiled a little. The real “race” was just about to begin!
As Su Qianxun contemplated how to overtake the last car in front of her. She suddenly felt a strong collision from behind and her body lurched forward abruptly. Shocked, she looked into the rear-view mirror. Apparently, the car behind her had just rammed into her.
She felt her heart sink. She gasped and held her breath. She realized that these men were working together. ‘Looks like it’s not going to be easy for me to win the race and get the prize!’
Humans will fight to the death for wealth; animals will fight to the death for survival. A million RMB was deadly temptation for common people, so it was not surprising that someone would play dirty!
The young woman gritted her teeth and accelerated. In that very instant, the car ahead of hers suddenly braked. There was not much distance between Su Qianxun’s car and his to begin with, and she was not able to step on the brakes in time. Her car collided with the car in front of hers.
