2993 Whoever Loses Pays the Bill Today
“Sorry, we shouldn’t have said that.” Pei Heran immediately apologized, because he was the person who questioned her.
“I know you’re worried about me, but I really have confidence, so please relax,” Leng Xiaoyao said. She wasn’t blaming them for questioning her, because they did it out of concern.
Xiong Manxin wanted to ask Leng Xiaoyao about it, but she understood that she should trust her after hearing her reply.
She was still slightly worried, but she was full of anticipation as well. She wanted to see a different Leng Xiaoyao.
“Brother Tianqi, what do you think?” Leng Xiaoyao asked.
“What if I don’t agree?” asked Ling Tianqi.
“It’s fine if you don’t agree, because I can compete with other people,” Leng Xiaoyao said.
“Fine!” Ling Tianqi gave a sigh. He actually wanted to persuade Leng Xiaoyao to give up, but she was insistent on having a competition.
If she competed with other people, they might force her to a dead end, but he wouldn’t do that.
Therefore, Ling Tianqi agreed in the end. “Fine, I’ll compete with you. There are tracks of three levels. The simplest one is inside the circle. The second one is thirty kilometers of intermediate runway. The third one is a twisting mountain road of sixty kilometers. However, the car race will be held inside the circle, so we can only choose between the second and the third one.”
“How about the second racing track?” Leng Xiaoyao suggested. Although the third one wasn’t difficult in her opinion, she didn’t want to put Ling Tianqi in danger.
Ling Tianqi was skilled, but he wasn’t a professional racer, so it was possible that he might be injured if they raced on the third track.
“No problem.” Ling Tianqi agreed. He was also worried about Leng Xiaoyao’s safety, so the second track was a good choice. “Let’s go over now!”
After that, they went to the service center.
On their way over, Leng Xiaoyao reminded Xiong Manxin not to tell Wu Minmin and the others that they had raced.
“Why not?” Xiong Manxin was confused. She wanted to talk about it in their WeChat group.
“There is no reason. Just listen to me,” Leng Xiaoyao said.
“Fine.” Xiong Manxin agreed and didn’t ask.
The race tracks were half open to the public, because only people with a membership could come and race here. It required money and skills to join the membership, but members could rent the tracks and racing cars. However, a member could take only one non-member inside.
If they caused damages to rented racing cars because they weren’t skilled enough they would need to pay for it.
If any accidents happened when they raced, the owner of the circuit wouldn’t take any responsibility, to prevent anyone from deliberately asking for compensation.
All of this was written in the agreement before they had a race, so it was legal.
Although there were many people who came to race, it wasn’t crowded. Therefore, they quickly finished the formalities after they reached the service center.
After that, they went to choose their cars.
It was not only about the appearance, they also needed to test the engine or even test drive it.
Before long, Leng Xiaoyao chose her car, but she finished very quickly, so she seemed to be careless.
Ling Tianqi and the others saw that, but they said nothing.
Since Leng Xiaoyao said that she could do it, it shouldn’t be a problem for her to choose a good car.
Right at that moment, Leng Xiaoyao felt as if someone was looking at her, but she didn’t turn around right away. Slowly she glanced at the person.
After the glance, she was surprised.
Right next to the window on the third floor, there was a man, and that man was Li Mochen.
What a coincidence!
Because Leng Xiaoyao only gave him a glance, Li Mochen didn’t know that she had already noticed him.
Li Mochen didn’t expect to see Leng Xiaoyao here, so he was curious to know what she was doing. When she went to pick a racing car, he subconsciously focused on her.
“Chen, what are you looking at?”
At that moment, a young and handsome man walked over from behind Li Mochen.
“I’m looking at the racing cars,” Li Mochen replied.
“Why don’t we have a try? I haven’t competed with you for a long time. It should be fun,” the man said.
“No need, you’re no match for me. We can just watch them from here,” Li Mochen said. Due to Leng Xiaoyao’s sudden big change, he wanted to see what else she could do.
After being heavily hit by Li Mochen’s insult, the man was displeased, but he gave a glance from the window when Li Mochen said that he wanted to watch the race. “It’s just a girl and a man. Why is it interesting? I don’t think it’s exciting.”
“Can’t I watch it?” Li Mochen asked, staring at him coldly. The man was scared and explained at once. “Of course you can. I’ll turn it on right now.”
After that, the man ran to turn on the monitor in the lounge. The monitor was connected to the cameras along the track, so they could watch the game.
“Why don’t we bet on it?” The man asked Li Mochen after turning on the monitor.
“How?” asked Li Mochen.
“I bet that the man can win, and you can bet that the girl will win. Whoever loses should pay the bill today. Whoever wins can do whatever he wants,” the man said with a calculating look.
“Great!” Li Mochen agreed with alacrity. He somehow felt that Leng Xiaoyao would win.
The man, however, was surprised that Li Mochen agreed so quickly, because he believed that he was at an advantage. He didn’t think Leng Xiaoyao would surpass Ling Tianqi in the game.
In his eyes, female drivers were all terrible.
The man didn’t find it unfair, because Li Mochen was very rich. It wasn’t a big deal if he spent some money on him.
…
After both Leng Xiaoyao and Ling Tianqi chose a car, they drove to the starting line of the second track. Once the game began after the gunshot signal, they dashed out.
Ling Tianqi wouldn’t limit his own abilities to let Leng Xiaoyao feel better. He would just not force her to a dead end.
On the other hand, Leng Xiaoyao wanted to defeat Ling Tianqi, so she did her best.
There was a gap between their skills, so Leng Xiaoyao soon left him behind and stayed a distance ahead of him.
