Chapter 66 - Crushing
Chapter 66 of "Invincible Young Master in the City" starts with: A three-million yuan bet on the Longwan Mountain racetrack was quite a large gamble and... Continue exploring!
A three-million yuan bet on the Longwan Mountain racetrack was quite a large gamble and naturally attracted many racing enthusiasts as well as numerous scantily clad busty women.
Two cars lined up side by side at the starting line: a red BMW 6X and a cool-looking yellow Ferrari sports car.
Based solely on performance, the BMW 6X, while a decent car valued at a million, fell significantly short compared to the Ferrari sports car.
âWeâre doomed,â the girls exclaimed in despair upon seeing the opponentâs car.
Both software and hardware were inferior, so how could they possibly hope to win?
Thatâs what all the girls from Yunying Club thought.
Even Qin Mengyao and Liu Yiyi werenât optimistic.
Qin Mengyao struggled to maintain a confident smile, though she had already resigned herself to defeat.
However, she had no regrets and would still place the bet if given another chance.
Ye Fan and Racing King Qin Gang walked to their respective cars from opposite sides.
âHello.â Ye Fan greeted Qin Gang with a faint smile on his face.
Hearing the greeting, Qin Gang turned his head, glanced indifferently at Ye Fan, and without nodding, turned back and got into the Ferrari, closing the door.
His attitude clearly showed he didnât consider Ye Fan to be worthy of being his opponent.
Ye Fan wasnât upset.
With a faint smile and a shrug, being rude wasnât his style.
He opened the car door to get in when Qin Mengyao came over, leaned close, and whispered in his ear, âYe Fan, be careful, winning or losing doesnât matter.
That three million yuan was meant to alleviate disaster anyway; they were prepared for this.â
âHehe, weâll win.â Ye Fan replied with a relaxed smile as if he were about to do something trivial.
After saying that, he got into the car and closed the door.
The race was about to start, both engines roared to life.
Every now and then, they revved their engines to maximum as a warm-up, emitting deafening roars reminiscent of howling primordial beasts straining at the leash.
Just the sound alone was enough to get the blood pumping.
However, most people werenât very hopeful since everyone, including members of both Yunying and Haipirates clubs and even the spectators, unanimously believed that Racing King Qin Gang would win for sure.
If they were expecting anything, it was to watch Qin Gangâs amazing drifts and fancy tail flicks on those sharp 180-degree turns through the surveillance footage.
âI wonder if the Racing King can break his record this time?â people discussed.
Including the girls from Yunying Club, âLast time he ran thirteen minutes and forty-three seconds.â
âI think he definitely can.
This time heâs driving a Ferrari FF, all-wheel drive, dual-clutch gearbox, valued over five million!â someone said.
âNot necessarily though.
The opponent is too weak, just a newbie, unknown, dressed in cheap clothes, and was just getting familiar with the track, driving a mere one-million BMW 6X,â another person said, âWithout pressure, breaking the record isnât going to be easy.â
âThat makes sense.
Anyway, Iâm just here to see if the Racing King can break the record.
As for winning or losing, heh.â
âMe too.â
Amid the one-sided discussion, a beautiful girl wearing only a bikini approached the starting line with a small colorful flag.
She gestured to the racers, who nodded, and then she moved aside.
As the flag waved down, both cars shot out, kicking up a whirlwind of dust.
True to its worth of over five million yuan, the Ferrari FF took a mere two seconds to pull one car length ahead of the BMW 6X, and after two more seconds, it had extended the lead to several meters.
This starting acceleration was simply not in the same league.
Ye Fan remained calm and floored the accelerator to catch up with all his might.
Of course, on a straight road, itâs about whose car is better and faster, but on a winding mountain road, itâs all about the skill.
Soon, the first sharp turn arrived.
Racing King, leading in front, had to slow down to make the turn.
Seizing the opportunity, Ye Fan kept speeding up to close the gap.
The next moment, Ye Fan also reached the first sharp turn.
However, Ye Fan didnât slow down; he continued accelerating, drifting around the turn with a huge fishtail.
âWowââ
Since it was the first turn, everyone could see it directly without needing video surveillance; they were all shocked and screamed.
âIs this newbie too reckless?
Isnât he afraid of crashing down the cliff and shattering to pieces?!â
However, amidst their astonishment, they displayed excited, anticipatory looks and started focusing on the BMW 6X.
With the first sharp turn, Ye Fan had closed the gap by six or seven meters.
But then, the opponent widened the gap by four or five meters using the carâs advantage.
Fortunately, Longwan Mountainâs winding road was complex enough; another 90-degree turn soon approached.
On the surveillance videos, everyone saw Racing King driving the Ferrari FF, gracefully drifting through the tight 90-degree turn, eliciting amazed shouts from the crowd: âBeautiful!
So cool!
Idol!â
The scene instantly boiled over.
However, immediately after, Ye Fanâs BMW 6X entered the 90-degree turn on the surveillance video.
The BMW 6X was still speeding, resembling a rampant beast, beautifully drifting through the narrow lane at 90 degrees, easily navigating the tight corner and tailing the Ferrari FF.
âThisâŚâ
All the spectators in front of the video were dumbfounded, falling into a stunned silence.
After a moment, a deafening roar erupted.
Roarâ
The audience was completely exhilarated!
Qin Mengyao and Liu Yiyi exchanged glances, filled with surprise and anticipation.
âBrother Ye will definitely win!â Yiyi clenched her fists and shouted.
Qin Mengyao nodded vigorously and said, âYes, he will definitely win!â
As Ye Fan tailed the Ferrari FF for a while, Racing King Qin Gang, preparing to utilize the Ferrariâs performance advantage to widen the gap, encountered another sharp turn and had to slow down for drifting.
But as he was drifting slowly, Ye Fan had already maintained full speed and passed him.
Wowâ
Everyone watching the surveillance video couldnât help but get incredibly excited.
The girls from Yunying Society screamed and jumped up, while Qin Mengyao and Liu Yiyi hugged each other in excitement.
However, those from Pirate King Society were frustrated.
Lin Junhua cursed in anger, âWhat the hell is Qin Gang doing?
Driving a Ferrari FF that I borrowed with so much difficulty, and yet getting overtaken by a country bumpkin!
F*ck!â
After overtaking in the third turn, Ye Fan continued to use the subsequent turns to increase the distance.
Racing King Qin Gang, having been overtaken by Ye Fan, was naturally very unwilling, especially to be surpassed by an unknown newbie dressed in cheap street clothes.
Therefore, apart from continuously trying to close the distance using the superior performance of his car, he also insanely took high-speed sharp turns, truly performing beyond his levels.
However, the situation never turned around; rather, halfway through the race, he couldnât even see Ye Fanâs taillights anymore.
A complete rout, an absolute domination!
