CHAPTER 511: CHAPTER 374: BUYING A MOTORCYCLE_2

Riding onto the road, the gentle breeze softly brushed against their faces, carrying wisps of fresh air.

Sophie maintained a relatively steady speed, even though the bike was powerful, she prioritized safety and comfort.

With the breeze lightly caressing them, both were immersed in the pleasant atmosphere, as if time had slowed down, leaving only beauty and leisure.

Then, they rode on towards the suburbs.

The scenery along the way was picturesque, with lush fields and occasional crisp bird calls.

Just as Sophie was enjoying this pleasant riding moment, Li Jing suddenly patted her arm, signaling her to pull over.

Feeling puzzled, Sophie slowly pulled over, turned to Li Jing, her eyes full of confusion:

"What’s wrong?"

Li Jing’s mouth curled into a slight smile, and he said:

"Actually, I can ride too, how about letting me take over for a bit?"

At his words, Sophie widened her eyes in complete surprise.

However, she quickly figured that maybe Li Jing was itching to ride after seeing how much fun she was having.

She looked Li Jing up and down, and confirmed again: "Can you really ride?"

Li Jing smiled and casually replied: "I can even drive a car, so how could I not ride a motorcycle? Don’t worry, I won’t risk my life."

Hearing this, Sophie no longer doubted him.

After all, riding a motorcycle isn’t that difficult, many guys learn it as teenagers.

Moreover, this bike was bought by Li Jing as a gift for her, so there wasn’t much to worry about.

She gently nodded but still reminded him: "Alright then, but be careful while riding, safety first."

Li Jing patted her shoulder: "Don’t worry, I value my life above all, there won’t be any mishaps. Just hold on tight."

At the words "hold on tight," Sophie’s expression changed subtly, a hint of something flashed in her eyes.

She snorted slightly, teasing: "Hmph, did you really want to ride just so I would hug you?"

Li Jing shrugged and laughed: "Think what you like, but once I start, you’ll see. If you don’t hold on tight and fall off, don’t blame me."

Hearing this, Sophie pouted, feeling Li Jing was just boasting.

Then, they rearranged their seating, with Li Jing sitting firmly in the driver’s seat and Sophie, slightly anxious yet expectant, wrapping her arms around his waist.

Embracing Li Jing’s muscular back, pressing tightly against him, Sophie felt a strange sensation.

However, sensing the warmth emanating from his body, her heart began racing uncontrollably, making her hug him even tighter.

Li Jing gave off a faint, fresh scent, his whole being clean and refreshing, and his solid build unknowingly gave Sophie a strong sense of security.

A sudden thought crossed her mind: wouldn’t it be nice if she could hug Li Jing like this every day?

But as soon as that thought surfaced, she shook her head and dismissed it.

No, no, this guy’s a playboy, can’t fall into his trap.

Despite her thoughts, Sophie firmly held onto Li Jing, not planning to let go.

As Li Jing mounted the bike, the moment he gripped the handles, a strong sense of familiarity coursed through him like an electric current.

It felt as if he had been with the bike for over a decade, knowing every detail of it intimately, with each part feeling like an extension of his body.

This feeling made Li Jing’s lips curl into a slight smile, knowing well that this motorcycle prowess was granted by the system, and he mused to himself: Hope that billion wasn’t spent in vain.

No time for more thoughts, Li Jing turned back and shouted to Sophie: "Sit tight, here we go!"

Before Sophie could respond, he twisted the throttle, and the bike shot forward like a bullet out of a chamber.

Sophie let out a startled cry, clutching tightly to Li Jing’s back, her legs instinctively gripping the motorcycle, as she anxiously shouted:

"Slow down, slow down, be careful!"

Yet, Li Jing seemed lost in the thrill of speed, showing no signs of slowing down and instead, opening the throttle wider.

The wind roared like a ferocious beast, slamming against them both.

The roadside scenery flew past them like a fast-forwarded movie, rapidly receding into the distance.

Fields, trees, and utility poles were all left as blurred traces behind, only shadows remaining.

The roadside plants swayed violently due to the strong wind, as if trembling from the speed.

Li Jing thoroughly enjoyed the exhilaration of the rapid pace, the thrill spread across his entire being, with every pore and cell cheering in euphoria.

Meanwhile, Sophie was so tense her face turned pale, feeling her heart leap into her throat, eyes tightly shut, afraid to look at the rapidly passing scenery.

Soon enough, they encountered two other motorcycles.

The riders of the other bikes, seeing his new bike, couldn’t help but loudly compliment:

"Hey brother, nice bike you got there, it’s new right, no plates yet, just a temporary permit!"

At this, Li Jing signaled a challenge gesture.

Seeing this, the other riders immediately grinned with excitement and unhesitatingly sped up.

Li Jing naturally wasn’t one to back down, quickly accelerating.

The three bikes, like three black dragons, raced down the road, the roar of the engines deafening.

But with the masterful skills granted by the system, Li Jing’s smoothness in turns and explosive acceleration far exceeded the others.

Soon enough, he easily left the two bikes behind.

The two riders, left behind, stopped their bikes gradually, watching Li Jing’s figure disappear into the distance, one of them exclaimed:

"Damn, who is that guy? We’ve got veteran skills, but I’ve never heard of him!"

"Veteran skills, ha, I bet he’s a pro playing at being a noob!"

The other also marveled at Li Jing’s skill, convinced that he was no mere amateur, seeing his maneuvering and handling skills as top-tier.

Meanwhile, Li Jing, having accelerated past the two, was engulfed by a massive wave of satisfaction.

Unable to contain his excitement, he let out a joyful shout, filled with a sense of release.

At the same time, his sense of experience felt increasingly strong, as though standing at a crucial point of a grand adventure. Instinct told him that he was just a step away, and if this feeling heightened, he just might complete that seemingly impossible system task.

Behind him, Sophie initially felt extreme tension, holding onto Li Jing’s back tightly.

But after she witnessed Li Jing’s clean and swift overtaking, a sense of inexplicable thrill surged within her, erasing previous worries as she let herself enjoy the moment.

She couldn’t believe this guy was such an amazing rider?

No wonder he always thought she was too slow.

But how does he know so much? Are impressive people always this versatile?

Now she was thoroughly impressed by Li Jing’s motorcycle skills, truly experiencing the unique excitement he mentioned about increased speed.

Then, Li Jing turned around, loudly asking:

"How was it, exciting?"

Sophie clung tightly to Li Jing’s waist, nodding emphatically, responding loudly:

"Yes, very exciting!"

Hearing that, Li Jing’s smile deepened and he asked: "Wanna go again?"

Sophie didn’t hesitate to reply: "Sure!"

At her words, they shot off again like an arrow released, dashing towards the distance, the wind fiercely tousling their hair and clothes.

Sophie nestled closely against Li Jing’s back, a sudden wave of happiness washing over her.

It was much like the scenes she had imagined countless times in her childhood—racing on a bike with a boy she liked, now vividly realized, her heart brimming with happiness and fulfillment.

Unknowingly, her perception of Li Jing had subtly changed, a shift she didn’t even notice herself.
