Why race if you don’t have money?

Chapter 27: The New King of Cars at Nanyun Mountain

Qin Lianjie sat in the driver's seat of the Civic Type-R, staring blankly through the side window at the gradually receding taillights of the Subaru Impreza, his whole body in a trance.

He once prided himself on being the "God of Driving in Nanyun Mountain", but ended up not even finishing half the race, not even reaching the most classic double M curve, before being left behind by Chen Xiangbei, who couldn't even see his taillights.

This can no longer be described as a failure, it is simply a one-sided "massacre".

At the same time, he also understood one thing, that is, why Liang Chi valued this high school student so much and gave him his treasured Subaru Impreza.

The racing talent this kid showed was truly unparalleled!
At the same time, Chen Xiangbei looked through the rearview mirror and saw that there were no more headlights on behind him, and the roar of the Civic Type-R engine had also subsided. He knew that Qin Lianjie had given up on his own initiative.

Chen Xiangbei remained calm and showed little emotion after winning the street race.

Because this game is just an entertainment activity for him.

Although Chen Xiangbei's current physical fitness, driving skills, control, etc. are definitely far from comparable to his peak period.

But it is more than enough to outperform Qin Lianjie.

After all, even the overall professional level of Chinese racing is not very good by world standards, not to mention that Qin Lianjie is just a professional goalkeeper?

Even if Chen Xiangbei didn't get an official F1 driver contract in his previous life, it only means that he is weaker than the top drivers in the world, and it doesn't mean that he is that bad!

Winning is what we deserve.

Losing is impossible.

Realizing that the race was over, Chen Xiangbei slowed down and no longer drove through the corners at the intensity of the race.

However, he did not stop the car and drove straight to Liang Chi's auto repair shop at the foot of the mountain.

Chen Xiangbei's statement that he was in a hurry was not really a show-off or arrogance. In addition to his original part-time job, he now has additional tasks such as mountain racing and physical training.

Key high schools already have a lot of homework, and this week the head teacher also assigned three test papers as homework, but he hasn't written a single word yet.

If he doesn't say he's in a hurry, does that mean he has to go back and finish his homework?
Although Chen Xiangbei has a strong mentality, it is indeed a bit embarrassing to say it in front of so many people...

"The Subaru Impreza didn't stop, and the high school kid has already passed the observation point at the foot of the mountain and left!"

After hearing the last report coming from the intercom, no one on the platform at the top of the mountain even cried out in surprise. All that was left was silence as they looked at each other in confusion.

After a long while, a racer whispered, "The high school kid crushed Brother Jie. Does that mean someone will have to take over the title of Nanyun Mountain's Driving God from now on?"

"You idiot, do you know how to talk? Where is Brother Jie's face?"

"But let's be honest, high school kids are really awesome."

"He beat Brother Jie before the halfway mark. This is probably the level of a professional racer."

“I feel like most professional drivers aren’t that strong!”

Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Captain Cao An said nothing. He turned around and got into his Porsche 911.

Cao An wanted to hear Qin Lianjie's opinion. Could he really not outrun this high school kid?
On the other side, Ma Minghan and others were also preparing to go home. Compared with Che Laoquan's solemn expression and Ma Minghan's gloomy face, Sha Minghui had an unconcealable joy in the corner of his eyes.

People are afraid of comparison...

Last week, he was ridiculed for showing off his skills. After all, he lost to Toyota Corolla while driving a Mercedes-AMG, which sounds a bit outrageous at first.

But now even the team leader Qin Lianjie has lost. Let’s see who dares to say that they are not good enough in the future.

If you think you are awesome, then go for it!
Chen Xiangbei stepped on the accelerator and drove straight to the door of the repair shop. Liang Chi had already composed himself and was sitting in a rocking chair with his legs crossed, smoking a cigarette.

Seeing Chen Xiangbei get off the car, he asked casually, "You came back pretty quickly, did you lose the race?"

"Won."

"Really won?"

Liang Chi's expression finally changed. He had been optimistic about Qin Lianjie and knew what kind of foundation that boy had.

If Chen Xiangbei can win, then his racing talent would be amazing.

But before Chen Xiangbei could answer, the phone in Liang Chi's pocket rang. He took it out and saw that the caller ID was Qin Lianjie's number.

After pressing the answer button and chatting for just a few words, the cigarette butt fell from the corner of Liang Chi's mouth. He looked at Chen Xiangbei with an incredible look.

Frankly, Liang Chi emotionally hoped Chen Xiangbei would win, but his rational mind told him it was unlikely. Coupled with the blow of his failure at the CFR2000 China Sai race, he didn't dare hold out too much hope. Liang Chi could only sit in his rocking chair, using this seemingly nonchalant approach to mask his inner anticipation and nervousness.

But Qin Lianjie's phone call confirmed that Chen Xiangbei was the winner!

After a moment of loss of composure, Liang Chi quickly recovered. Before the cigarette butt had fallen to the ground for three seconds, he quickly picked it up and held it in his mouth, continuing to act calm and composed.

Then he handed over the phone and said, "Xiao Qin wants to talk to you."

Say something to me?
Chen Xiangbei was a little confused. He didn't have a very close relationship with Qin Lianjie. Could it be that the other party was not convinced and planned to run away?
I picked up the phone and put it to my ear, and heard Qin Lianjie's voice from the other end.

"Chen Xiangbei, you are very powerful. I accept defeat wholeheartedly."

Qin Lianjie admitted defeat immediately, which made Chen Xiangbei admire him a little. You know, many people in this world cannot afford to lose.

"You're not bad, actually."

Chen Xiangbei praised him, and this was not just a polite consolation. Judging by the standards of a racing enthusiast, Qin Lianjie had indeed run quite well.

Unfortunately, he chose the wrong opponent.

"The money has been transferred to your card, please check it."

"Also, if you must follow Che Lao Quan, you'd better be careful. His driving is not that clean."

Guangdong and Hong Kong share similar cultural customs, and the racing world is such a small place that if a driver has a bad reputation, the news will spread quickly.

"Thank you, I know it well."

In fact, Chen Xiangbei knew that Che Laoquan was not very clean even without Qin Lianjie's reminder.

The reason is very simple, that is, professional drivers will never participate in underground racing unless they are interested or just for fun, and they will not participate for money.

Because many times the returns are not proportional to the risks.

This is not to say that there is a risk of racing accidents, but that if you are caught, your racing license can easily be revoked, which is equivalent to destroying your future.

The story line of the protagonist of the movie "Speeding Life" is that he was caught in a street racing while trying to raise money and was then banned for five years.

When the ban was lifted, he wanted to participate in professional racing again, but he found that things had changed and his future was ruined.

A professional racer who takes money to participate in underground competitions means that he is the kind of person who disregards the rules and will use any dirty tricks to win.

Chen Xiangbei had predicted this long ago, which is why he agreed with Sha Minghui that he would decide the rules himself.

"Since you already know what's going on, I won't say anything more."

"If you ever run with Che Laoquan, please let me know to watch the race. I'd like to see if you can beat the professional racers."

Although Che Laoquan drives dirty, his identity and ability as a professional driver are there.

After today's race, Qin Lianjie was really curious about the upper limit of Chen Xiangbei's driving skills and whether he could compete with professional drivers.

"Okay, I'll let you know when the time comes."

Chen Xiangbei agreed without hesitation. He had a very good impression of Qin Lianjie and felt that he was an opponent worth facing.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiangbei returned the phone to Liang Chi.

The other party narrowed his eyes and said comfortably: "Boy, do you know that there is a rule in Nanyun Mountain?"

"What rules?"

"Whoever beats the previous fastest driver will be awarded the title of Nanyunshan Driving God."

"Could it be that the previous fastest person was Qin Lianjie?"

Chen Xiangbei replied with a smile.

"Yes, it's Qin Lianjie."

"From now on, you'll be called the God of Cars on the South Cloud Mountain!"

PS: Thank you brothers for your rewards and votes. I am going to pay New Year's greetings, so I will update it together to make it more enjoyable for my brothers.
