"Haha, alright, I'm not good at these grand theories, and I'm sure none of you here would really like to hear them. Since you're here, you're our friends. Now... please enjoy the match, support your favorite players, and see you on the field!"

"We would like to thank Yumeng Dairy for their sponsorship of this match, and..."

The commentator was very energetic and spoke very loudly, almost penetrating the well-insulated race car through the loudspeaker.

Even Xia Che heard it.

It was just a small match, I don't know why I got so excited...

Xia Che shook his head.

The so-called Jiangshi F1 Racing Cup refers to the name of the racetrack, not to actual Formula 1 racing.

Jiang City's racing scene has been in decline for a long time. If they want to go international as the commentator suggested, they should think about how to hold more S-series races.

In small competitions like this, the participants don't even have protective measures, and the scale and logistics can't compare to a real S-series race. Anyone who knows a little about racing can see that.

It's tough on this commentator; he's been paid by the sponsors, so he has to grit his teeth and praise them...

How are you feeling?

Xia Che glanced at Yu Shiyue.

Although he knew how to drive, this was his first time driving at a racetrack. Fortunately, it was no different from driving on a regular day, except that he was going a bit faster than on the highway.

Xia Che was somewhat able to accept it.

Once he adapted, Xia Che didn't find it too difficult and maintained his lead over the other racers.

"It seems...not bad?"

Yu Shiyue was in the passenger seat, and she was much freer than Xia Che at this moment. At least she could move around freely in her seat. She leaned against the car window, watching the trees rushing past outside, her eyes widening.

Is this what street racing is like?

That kind of extreme sport where you leave everything around you far behind at high speed...

People tend to pursue what they lack most.

Yu Shiyue has never truly possessed freedom, which is why she yearns for something that allows her to leave everything behind.

At this moment, Yu Shiyue truly felt it. Touching her chest, feeling the strong beating of her heart, she murmured to herself, "So I'm still alive."

"Everyone who experiences a sport that is very different from their own will have the same feeling: this is indeed true."

Xia Che smiled gently, and Yu Shiyue's reaction didn't seem too strange to him.

He could tell that Yu Shiyue, like Yu Yue, was someone who was under a lot of pressure.

If you're under a lot of pressure, you need to find ways to get rid of it.

People will break down if they are in a high-pressure environment for a long time.

Otherwise, how could Xia Che have agreed to Yu Shiyue's request to race?

"That's true..."

Yu Shiyue nodded slightly, without refuting.

Neither of them spoke again. Yu Shiyue quietly looked at the scenery outside the window, while Xia Che focused on driving.

Soon, Xia Che had arrived at the designated location for forfeiting the match, as planned.

Five kilometers is a distance that passes in the blink of an eye at high speeds.

Perhaps due to the novice protection period, Xia Che maintained his lead, leaving the well-known professional racers in Jiang City far behind.

This was displayed to the audience in the stands via electronic screens.

Viewers unaware of the facts didn't find this result strange.

After all, they assumed that the person driving was Xu Youwei.

A renowned racing prodigy in Jiang City.

A driver invited by a top-tier racing team.

It would be strange if they couldn't come in first.

The audience, including the commentators, thought it was normal, but Sister Liu, who knew the truth, was dumbfounded.

That kid Xia Che...

Is this really your first time driving?

How could they leave professional race car drivers so far behind?

This kid...

He's a genius.

...

Xia Che, of course, did not understand Sister Liu's shock. At this moment, he just wanted to get to the agreed location as soon as possible, then abandon the competition and go home.

Anyway, Yu Shiyue's wish has been fulfilled.

Xia Che just wanted to find a random place and listen to what Yue-xiong's secret was.

Is there anything that would make Brother Yue stay here?

As they drew closer to the agreed-upon location, Xia Che gradually slowed down.

After all, maintaining high speed while turning...

But it's easy to crash.

"Hmm? That's strange..."

Suddenly, Xia Che froze, his thoughts instantly shattered.

Is there a murderous aura?

His brows furrowed instantly.

Although Xia Che's meridians were sealed, his senses remained.

Moreover, having received training from his master since childhood, coupled with the presence of the Four-Colored Rose, his perception of killing intent is among the best in the world.

His perception is not wrong.

There was indeed a strong, sharp killing intent behind him, just like the assassin he encountered when visiting Wang Xiaoxi in the hospital.

Xia Che would be able to sense if anyone harbored murderous intent towards him.

Xia Che continued driving at high speed without making a sound, but glanced at the rearview mirror out of the corner of his eye.

Behind them, a car without license plates was rapidly approaching.

really……

Xia Che's heart sank.

This is the competition venue.

Every race car that appears on the track has a corresponding license plate, which serves as proof of identity and facilitates rankings after the race.

It's impossible for them to refuse to issue a license plate.

Moreover, the car didn't look like a race car; Xia Che couldn't see any signs of modification.

The car windows were opaque, providing excellent privacy. They were now approaching the rear of Xia Che's car, the windows so dark they absorbed even light.

I've never seen this before. Is it because I'm so fast that they can't keep up?

As soon as they slowed down, they caught up...

Is it another assassin?

Xia Che's head suddenly started to ache.

Damn it, are these killers insane?

Why do they keep chasing after you like flies?

What is it about me that interests them?

No matter where I go, I always run into these annoying people!

With a sigh, Xia Che's eyes gradually turned serious. He stepped on the accelerator, and the car's speed, which had slowed down, instantly increased, returning to the high speed it had been at when it started moving.

There's no other way. Since he's an assassin, he absolutely cannot get off at the agreed-upon location.

This is in the mountains, no one knows I'm here, and it would take too long to get here.

That's enough to make an assassin kill himself a thousand times over.

not to mention……

Xia Che glanced at Yu Shiyue, his anxiety growing, and his brows furrowed.

He is not alone yet.

No matter what, we must not involve Yu Shiyue.

"Wait, aren't we almost there?"

Yu Shiyue paused for a moment, realizing that the speed was abnormal.
