31: Chapter 27: City Racing 31: Chapter 27: City Racing The girl was serious-faced at this moment, and within an instant, the speed of the car shot up. Her car was a sports car to begin with, and it had been intentionally modified, so its acceleration and speed were not inferior to that of the Ferrari. Li Chen sat seriously in the passenger seat, watching the Ferrari not far ahead. “Hold tight!” After the girl spoke, she accelerated further, chasing after the Ferrari with blue flames spurting from the rear! “Roar Roar” The roaring engine signified that the modified sports car was finally showcasing its terrifying performance, as it began to close the gap on the Ferrari. The sound of racing cars whistled by their ears, and the panicked vehicles kept honking their horns, yet the sports car weaved through them like a nimble fish, quickly catching up to the Ferrari. Upon reaching the side of the Ferrari, the girl rolled down her window, as did the Ferrari driver. Neither spoke yet, but their eyes were filled with an explosive intensity. The owner of the Ferrari was a young man in his early twenties with a head of oddly dyed yellow hair. He looked at the girl and made a vulgar gesture, repeatedly jabbing his index finger toward her. “Hmph.” The girl snorted coldly, stretched out her thumb, pointed downwards at him, and without another word, she suddenly stepped on the gas, and the sports car shot forward like an arrow released from its bow! And the Ferrari’s driver followed closely behind, the two cars accelerating in tandem and tearing down the road! This was their decisive battle. Li Chen sat in the passenger seat, calmly observing the performance of the car. It must be said that the girl’s driving skills were indeed impressive. The car glided through traffic like a fish in water, and none of the vehicles ahead could block her path. However, the Ferrari was sticking close behind, tailgating her tightly. Li Chen glanced in the rearview mirror and saw the young man’s lips curled in a scornful smile, simply following leisurely. “Fragrant Avenue is coming up right ahead.” The car’s intelligent alert sounded. The girl looked back at the Ferrari behind her and sped up again. At the same time, the Ferrari also accelerated, running parallel to her. Fragrant Avenue could be considered the oldest street in Linchuan City, which, as a result, had many curves. Unexpectedly, today it became a racetrack for these two. The first curve bent to the right, with a small car turning the corner. The girl frowned; she would be in danger if she didn’t slow down because on the left side of the road ahead, another car was driving by. If she didn’t slow down and tried to overtake forcefully, there would be a collision. After a moment’s hesitation, the girl had no choice but to grit her teeth and slow down to turn, but just then, the Ferrari behind charged forward, dramatically drifting around the corner and surging to the front. Under the girl’s watchful eyes, the car coming from the opposite direction immediately honked and swerved in reaction to the drifting Ferrari, which subsequently collided with a stall on the side of the road, while the Ferrari sped away. The driver laughed loudly, extending his left hand out of the window and brandishing a contemptuous middle finger in a provocative gesture. Biting her lip in anger, the girl quickly stepped on the gas to catch up. The Ferrari appeared to wait for her to get close before suddenly accelerating again. The engine thundered. The modified sports car kept up as the road ahead widened with a rare straight stretch. She was determined to overtake the Ferrari on this road and reclaim her honor. However, each time her car tried to overtake from the side, the Ferrari would block her way. If she moved to the left, he moved left; if she moved right, he shifted right, maintaining a firm suppression. “This asshole!” The girl slammed her hand on the horn, but the Ferrari in front seemed undisturbed, and instead, smoke billowed from its exhaust pipe. The Ferrari continued to drive forward, and as it approached another curve, its speed seemed to decrease. The girl’s eyes brightened as she saw an opportunity to overtake. She managed to pass the Ferrari and couldn’t help but smile at the small victory. But Li Chen’s brow furrowed. As expected, just as the girl was about to take the curve, the Ferrari behind them accelerated sharply, downshifting and drifting, expertly fish-tailing into the inner lane and violently colliding with them. “Bang” The sports car, which was in mid-turn, lost control after the collision, and the young driver with the childlike face was startled, quickly hitting the brakes to stop. The Ferrari took the lead again, its driver stopping to peek back at the girl and laughing out loud. After giving her a middle finger, he drove off into the distance. “Bastard!” The female driver pounded the steering wheel in frustration, and the sports car emitted a beeping sound. Why couldn’t she outrun this bastard? “Let me do it,” Li Chen suddenly spoke from the passenger seat. “You?” The girl looked incredulous. Seeing the Ferrari getting away, Li Chen immediately floored the accelerator, and the sports car roared to life. “What are you doing!” The girl was both shocked and angry. “I’ll drive!” Li Chen’s face remained calm, but his tone carried an unmistakable firmness. The girl really didn’t want Li Chen to drive. She had been nearly scared to death before, how could she race now? However, Li Chen stood up in the car, “You climb behind me.” Afterward, he grabbed the steering wheel with both hands. “Hey, hey, hey,” the girl yelled, “I haven’t climbed behind you yet.” The two swapped positions, with the girl struggling to crawl towards the passenger seat, while Li Chen moved to the driver’s seat. For a moment, the sports car, draped in the guise of a taxi, wobbled down the road as if drunk. “Ah, where are you touching!” The girl screamed again, for Li Chen’s hand had just brushed against her chest. “Sorry, grabbed the wrong spot,” Li Chen replied with his lips, but internally chuckled, taking the chance to cop a feel. “You.” The girl was flustered, but when she saw Li Chen’s serious and earnest expression, she couldn’t help but doubt whether Li Chen had really grabbed the wrong spot just now. After much difficulty, the two of them changed positions, and Li Chen instantly went full throttle. In a flash, the sports car sped up again, chasing after the Ferrari. Looking at Li Chen now, the girl realized he was completely different from when he was sitting in the passenger seat. Gone was the look of sheer terror. The car’s speed kept increasing, even surpassing the previous peak, and the girl couldn’t help but frantically search for something to hold onto. A glint of sharpness flashed in Li Chen’s eyes as he focused intently on the Ferrari ahead, his mind quickly calculating! With a turn of the steering wheel, the sports car overtook a Toyota and pulled up behind the Ferrari. “Beep beep” Li Chen honked the horn to signal his arrival. Sure enough, the Ferrari’s driver, seeing the sports car behind him, immediately accelerated and shot forward, with Li Chen hot on his tail. Just like before, on this straight road, the other driver wanted to keep ahead of him, but Li Chen, unfazed, said calmly, “Buckle up.” A momentary overtake of a taxi and Li Chen pushed the accelerator to the max. The engine roared, and blue flames jetted from the exhaust, while the Ferrari, trying to squash him, found his opponent running parallel. The Ferrari driver turned his head only to find a different person at the wheel of the sports car. Li Chen glanced at him and kept pressing the gas, quickly moving ahead. “Good!” The female driver shouted loudly, and at the same time, she looked at Li Chen doubtfully, wondering why his driving skill was so good when moments earlier he had seemed so shaken. Li Chen checked the Ferrari in the rearview mirror. The opponent clearly wasn’t satisfied and attempted to overtake, but with a slight movement from Li Chen, the sports car weaved left and right, effectively preventing the Ferrari from passing. Treat others with their own methods. The female driver shouted her approval, while the Ferrari’s driver’s face turned dark with gloom. Li Chen surveyed the road ahead. Upfront was Fragrant Avenue’s famous Fragrant Pavilion triple bend. The road wasn’t straightened to preserve old residences and relics, leading to the creation of three bends. Li Chen glanced back casually, not blocking the other car, and instantly, the Ferrari’s driver surged forward. “He’s overtaking!” the female driver exclaimed anxiously. Now is the time! A gleam flashed in Li Chen’s eyes. He followed closely, turning the wheel and keeping his foot down. After the Ferrari elegantly drifted through the bend, the sports car also drifted, hugging the inner curve more closely and at a faster pace. It was side by side with the Ferrari before the bend was even finished. The female driver was stunned. Drifting at full speed? Drifting usually requires slowing down, and she had never seen a drift done without reducing speed. The first turn was almost behind them, and Li Chen’s car was slightly ahead. But, quickly, the second turn to the left approached. The Ferrari’s driver, both anxious and angry, drifted again, only to see the sports car next to him drifting at the same time, but for some reason, maintaining speed, and overtaking him outright. What’s going on? Li Chen looked at the road ahead and blocked the Ferrari once again, pressing it firmly behind him. The female driver was dumbstruck; the driving skill was terrifying. “Hold tight!” Li Chen shouted loudly as the sports car sharply turned, the engine roaring amid a splendid tail-flick drift, skimming the bend’s inside nearly at 90 degrees! The Ferrari’s driver instinctively felt alarmed, but upon seeing the road, his face changed dramatically. He slammed the brakes as the Ferrari attempted the turn but it was too late. He couldn’t execute the sharp turn like Li Chen, and under the pressure of the third bend, crashed into the corner with a thunderous impact! Li Chen glanced at the wrecked Ferrari through the mirror and slowly brought the car to a stop. Meanwhile, the female driver in the passenger seat looked at Li Chen with a mix of shock and admiration. The cornering skill he just displayed was something even the world’s most famous drivers rarely achieved, yet the man beside her did. But how could the same person who had been so scared earlier be so cool and collected now? She had probably already forgotten her own wild behavior while racing. The Ferrari’s driver got out of the car, his forehead smeared with blood, the Ferrari behind him a complete wreck. He felt a mix of shock and anger. The guy in front of him had superior driving skills and strategy, deliberately keeping just ahead and blocking his vision, causing him to forget about Fragrant Pavilion’s notorious third, nearly 90-degree bend. He looked at the sports car not far away, only to see a middle finger extended from it before the car roared to life and sped away, leaving no trace. The female driver turned to Li Chen, then asked sweetly, “Why do you seem like two different people when you’re in the driver’s seat and the passenger seat?” “Because,” Li Chen turned his head, “when I’m in the driver’s seat, I drive. When I’m in the passenger seat, you drive.” “Is there a difference?” The pretty girl was baffled. “Of course, there’s a difference.” Li Chen said indifferently, “When I drive, my life is in my hands, and I can make sure nothing happens. When you drive, my life is in your hands, and there’s no telling if I’ll be safe, so of course, I’d be scared to death.” The pretty girl was so annoyed she could have burst—wasn’t that just another way of saying her driving was terrible?
