CHAPTER 50: CHAPTER 47: THE BET—EATING SHIT?

Smelling the faint fragrance coming from the girl beside him, Ye Qiu glanced at Wang Xinrui sitting next to him, and then looked at the distant drivers awaiting their exams who were glaring at him with murderous intent. He helplessly rolled his eyes and said to Wang Xinrui, "Your charm is really something, I’m about to become a public enemy."

"What?"

Wang Xinrui, who was intently watching the drivers’ exams, was a bit puzzled upon hearing Ye Qiu’s comment.

Ye Qiu gestured with his mouth towards the group of recently failed C-level drivers sitting in the waiting area.

Wang Xinrui followed Ye Qiu’s gaze and saw the drivers staring at Ye Qiu with eyes ablaze. She then smiled and said to Ye Qiu, "They seem to underestimate you, thinking you can’t possibly pass the A-level driver’s license exam."

Ye Qiu chuckled, saying nothing. He was at a point where he could ignore and not be bothered by others’ opinions.

"They are really shallow..." Wang Xinrui laughed.

Ye Qiu shook his head helplessly. Just then, Xiao Wei, who had just passed the C-level driver exam, swung his car keys proudly as he returned, showing off to his friends before casting a glance towards Ye Qiu.

Upon seeing Wang Xinrui, he couldn’t take his eyes off her.

"It’s the goddess, Wang Xinrui!"

As a youngster with dreams of racing, Xiao Wei particularly admired and respected those with great driving skills, and Wang Xinrui was both beautiful and talented, with limitless future prospects. Hence, Xiao Wei was deeply captivated.

Being a loyal fan of Wang Xinrui, he was filled with joy upon seeing her in front of him. However, seeing her laughing and chatting with Ye Qiu, his expression turned ugly.

"They’re sitting so close? And she... she’s smiling at that guy?"

Wang Xinrui always portrayed a frosty goddess image to outsiders, yet at this moment, she seemed like the girl next door, sitting beside Ye Qiu whispering and smiling.

This made Xiao Wei burn with fury, unable to endure it.

Yet, knowing that Ye Qiu had previously beaten up Situ Xin, he dared not provoke Ye Qiu, fearing Ye Qiu might retaliate physically. Still, he wanted to mock Ye Qiu in front of Wang Xinrui.

With this thought, Xiao Wei’s face broke into a sneer as he walked up to Ye Qiu, displaying a smile he thought was charming to Wang Xinrui.

Though quite handsome, Wang Xinrui merely glanced lightly at him and said, "Could you move, you’re blocking my view of the exams."

Xiao Wei’s smile froze instantly, but he said nothing, instead turning to Ye Qiu and asking, "It’s almost your turn for the exam, how is your preparation going?"

Ye Qiu, who was squinting his eyes, slowly opened them halfway upon hearing Xiao Wei’s voice, glanced at him, then closed his eyes again, ignoring the latter.

Seeing Ye Qiu ignoring him, Xiao Wei’s face darkened. He glanced at Wang Xinrui beside him, then said to Ye Qiu, "Your exam difficulty is A-level, requiring you to complete five consecutive drifts on the winding track within 40 minutes. Do you want me to share some tips? So that you won’t even fail the first level..."

Wang Xinrui was surprised by Xiao Wei’s words and looked over, causing Xiao Wei’s chest to puff up subconsciously, thinking: "The goddess noticed me; I must explain well to get her attention."

"This guy who only passed two levels and barely holds a C-level driver’s license, is actually lecturing Ye Qiu, who’s a near SS-level driver, on how to drive? What a weirdo..."

Wang Xinrui thought this of Xiao Wei.

Ye Qiu, after Xiao Wei finished speaking, took out his phone, inserted his earphones, and continued resting with his eyes closed.

"Hmph, not only is he blindly overestimating his strength, failing to listen to guidance from seniors, but he brazenly ignores it. If he can complete even one lap, I will eat... poop."

"You said that?"

As Xiao Wei finished speaking, Ye Qiu, who should not have heard with his earphones on, suddenly opened his eyes wide and said.

"Uh!"

Intending to disparage Ye Qiu in front of Wang Xinrui, Xiao Wei was stunned upon seeing Ye Qiu daring to bet with him.

But noticing Wang Xinrui’s gaze, he felt backing down now would make the goddess look down on him.

"Hmph, this rookie in a beat-up pickup truck definitely won’t pass a lap,"

Xiao Wei thought as he nodded to Ye Qiu. "I said that, if you use that pickup to drift more than one lap on the winding track, I’ll eat poop immediately."

After Xiao Wei finished speaking, Ye Qiu smiled, got up, and shouted to the drivers around, "You all heard, if I drift more than one lap on the winding track, this guy will eat poop."

Ye Qiu pointed at Xiao Wei as he spoke.

"Hmph, what if you can’t do it?"

Xiaowei, who was being watched by everyone, didn’t look pleased and said to Ye Qiu.

After thinking for a while, Ye Qiu said, "If I can’t do it, I’ll eat shit too."

"Pfft... Hahaha, you guys really have a strong taste."

Just as Ye Qiu and Xiaowei were betting, a loud laughter came, causing Ye Qiu to turn his head. When he saw Situ Yang and the Fiery Sun Team approaching, his brow furrowed.

Especially when he saw the arm already bandaged, like a mountain, Situ Xin. At this moment, the beast-like face was menacingly looking at him. Ye Qiu squinted his eyes, meeting the gaze.

The moment Situ Xin felt Ye Qiu’s gaze, he was startled and involuntarily avoided it.

"It’s Situ Yang? Why did he come here today, when did he return to H City?"

"Ah, it’s Situ Yang! He’s my idol. I have to get his autograph later."

"Why is Situ Yang here? Oh, did you hear? The two drivers following Situ Yang are here to take the A-level driving test today. Once they pass, Situ Yang will take them to Shangjing to join the Celestial Dragon Racing Team."

"What? Joining the Celestial Dragon Racing Team? Wow, those kids are going to be awesome. Didn’t Situ Yang also join the Celestial Dragon Racing Team back then? Now he’s already a three-star Bronze Car King. No way, I have to find a way to join the Alliance Team."

As soon as Situ Yang appeared, the people around were amazed. Who was Situ Yang? He was quite famous in Huaxia, and in H City, he was like a god.

Especially now, being a three-star Bronze Car King and a main force in the Huaxia Alliance Team’s Celestial Dragon Racing Team, Situ Yang earned the admiration of these drivers.

However, they were surprised to see Situ Yang actually joking with Ye Qiu.

But then someone explained the earlier conflict between Situ Xin and Ye Qiu, Situ Yang apologizing to Wang Xinrui, and getting acquainted with Ye Qiu, making everyone realize.

Seeing Ye Qiu, people thought this guy was really lucky. He beat Situ Yang’s brother, Situ Xin, yet Situ Yang didn’t pursue it. Instead, it seemed they now had a good relationship...

The most speechless one was Xiaowei, who had mocked Ye Qiu earlier, and bet to eat shit.

His idol wasn’t only Wang Xinrui but also admired Situ Yang. Seeing Situ Yang arrive earlier, he wanted to get close to him, but Situ Yang just smiled and ignored him, chatting with Ye Qiu.

Xiaowei felt deep resentment towards Ye Qiu, then saw Situ Yang ignoring him too, and Ye Qiu not even glancing at him. Xiaowei felt embarrassed, slowly backing away to leave, when Ye Qiu’s voice rang out, "Hey, don’t forget our bet. If I can drift one lap on the Spiral Track, you’ll eat shit..."

Hearing Ye Qiu’s words, Xiaowei stumbled, almost falling. He glared at Ye Qiu, and Ye Qiu laughed, "What? Still betting? Are you scared?"

"Afraid? Me?"

Seeing Wang Xinrui and Situ Yang looking at him, Xiaowei puffed his chest, thinking he had to make a good impression on Wang Xinrui and Situ Yang. If the goddess fancied him or Situ Yang took him to the Celestial Dragon Racing Team in Shangjing, wouldn’t he be soaring?

Feeling satisfied with his daydream, Xiaowei flashed what he thought was a handsome smile and said to Ye Qiu, "Afraid? Hmph, I’ll take your bet. If you can drift one lap on the Spiral Track, I’ll eat shit. Otherwise, if you can’t, you eat shit..."

"Hehe."

Ye Qiu nodded in agreement.

After Xiaowei arrogantly finished speaking, seeing Wang Xinrui and Situ Yang’s surprised eyes, he felt delighted, thinking, "Seems like such a bold bet caught their attention."

Xiaowei was daydreaming, but Wang Xinrui, seeing Xiaowei’s smiling face, felt puzzled, "Does eating shit make you so happy?"

Picturing Xiaowei eating shit later made Wang Xinrui feel nauseous and quickly looked away, fearing she’d vomit.

Situ Yang was surprised at Xiaowei not because he understood Ye Qiu’s driving skills, but judging from the subtle expressions, he could tell Ye Qiu had full confidence.

He didn’t understand where Ye Qiu’s confidence came from, but felt his judgment wouldn’t be wrong.

So seeing Xiaowei happily betting even knowing he’d eat shit, he was astonished.

Thinking he might be recognized by his idols, Xiaowei excitedly left, eager to see Ye Qiu fail and eat shit.

After Xiaowei left, Ye Qiu sat back in his place, showing no intention of talking much with this big shot, Situ Yang.

Ye Qiu was silent, so Wang Xinrui remained silent too, sitting beside Ye Qiu with her head down, thinking about something.

At that moment, Situ Yang smiled slightly and sat next to Ye Qiu, then pointed to the two drivers behind Situ Xin and said, "Ye Qiu, they are also taking the A-level driver’s license test later, how about we make a bet too?"
