Chapter 1085: He Lost
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The finis.h.i.+ng line was up ahead, so they both floored the gas. Even though there were obstacles on the racecourse, it failed to slow them the slightest.
Since it was the moment of truth, it felt exhilarating, After all, both the cars were equally good and ran parallel to each other. The moment either of them slowed down the slightest, the truth would be out and someone would lose.
As they gradually approached the finis.h.i.+ng line, Huo Yao said softly as she rubbed her steering wheel, “Yu.”
‘The moment Huo Yao called Min Yu’s name softly over the mike, he relaxed his foot for a split second and glanced sideways at Huo Yao.
Huo Yao smiled slightly when she detected him looking at her. She counted down in her heart before she said, “I just wanted to say… I think I am going to win.”
Huo Yao spoke airily before dodging the last obstacle and accelerating until she crossed the finis.h.i.+ng line.
She stepped on the brake. When it screeched to a piercing halt, the race was over.
Min Yu’s car finished only a second later than Huo Yao. He lowered his eyes to check the time and smiled quietly.
Huo Yao cut the engine, removed her helmet, and placed it on the front pa.s.senger seat. She opened the door and got out before closing it to lean against it lazily. She looked at Min Yu sitting in his car and raised her brow. “I won.”
Min Yu took off his helmet and got out of the car as well.
He walked up in front of Huo Yao and did not seem upset about losing, Instead, he looked completely calm and nodded with a profound look in his eyes. His voice could be heard from above her. “That’s right. Congrats. You won.”
Huo Yao touched her nose. She could not hold it in as she muttered. “All is fair in war.”
Min Yu raised his brow. He looked at Huo Yao and paused briefly. Then, he straightened out her slightly disheveled hair and said, “In that case, you have to make it up to me.”
Huo Yao went quiet briefly and answered. “I don’t have money.”
Min Yu laughed gently. Only someone like her was capable of saying such a thing.
Huo Yao cleared her throat. She checked her watch for the time and changed the subject. “It is getting late, so I should get home.”
Min Yu glanced at her and acknowledged her.
Yang Yi and Zhuo Yun had walked over. Min Yu tossed the car keys to them and gave some orders before driving off with Huo Yao in the car he had come in.
After they had driven off, Zhuo Yun held his chest and watched as they left and could not help sighing. “Miss Huo was so remarkable that even the boss lost to her.”
Yang Yi had taken the keys and unlocked the car when he heard what Zhuo Yun said. He paused briefly before he looked at Zhuo Yun and scoffed coldly. “It makes sense for some people to have trouble finding girlfriends.”
Couldn’t Zhuo Yun see that Min Yu had deliberately slowed down?
Even if Min Yu could not surpa.s.s Huo Yao, it ought to be a draw.
Zhuo Yun’s face twitched. He veered his eyes and tured to look at Yang Yi. “Did you have to personally attack me? I might not have a girlfriend, but what about you?”
Yang Yi could not be bothered talking to him. He simply opened the car door and got in.
Zhuo Yun touched his nose.

The car arrived at the estate an hour later.
From the moment Huo Yao got into the car, she pretended to rest her eyes until she eventually fell asleep.
After Min Yu pulled up outside her villa, he turned to look at Huo Yao as she slept. He sat there without waking her up. He quietly cut the engine and turned on the heater in the car.
Only shallow breathing could be heard in the shallow s.p.a.ce. It was particularly quiet and peaceful.
