“Let’s go. I knew you wouldn’t stay still. Yuan Junye just sent me a message saying his car has been checked, and you can give it a try.”
The people who came from Continent M knew Wen Xin’s personality. When Chu Yunxuan got the membership card from Yuan Junye, he had already guessed that Wen Xin wanted to try something exciting. Since he couldn’t stop her, he made arrangements to ensure her safety.
Wen Xin and Chu Yunxuan were led to the garage, where the staff introduced Yuan Junye’s car and its features to Wen Xin and Chu Yunxuan. They also provided racing suits for them to change into.
Wen Xin initially planned to just drive a couple of laps and then leave. However, at that moment, the racetrack’s broadcast announced that they were organizing a race at the last minute. Wen Xin’s interest was piqued.
“How about placing a bet?” Wen Xin removed her helmet and looked at Chu Yunxuan arrogantly.
“Of course, when the racing god steps in, there’s no reason not to bet. Come on, I’m betting a 100 hundred million on you to win!”
Chu Yunxuan took out her phone and placed a 100 million bet on Wen Xin’s car number.
Wen Xin also took out her phone and boldly placed a one billion yuan bet. If they were going to play, they might as well play big.
Wen Xin and Chu Yunxuan’s bets totaled 1.1 billion yuan, which quickly appeared on the big screen.
Everyone watching the big screen gasped. They had never seen this car number before, but it had such a big backer. A single bet of 1.1 billion yuan, easily overshadowing all their smaller bets.
Their millions were nothing in comparison, making them feel somewhat embarrassed.
In the private box where a few people were betting on the cars, their brows furrowed as they watched the electronic screen. They wondered if this was a big shot or someone trying to cause trouble. Was someone really that clueless?
“Boss, we found out that the driver of car number 857 is a woman. As for who placed such a big bet, we couldn’t figure it out. It should be someone behind her, but we’ve never heard of anyone wanting to meddle in our business.”
Upon hearing the driver was a woman, the man called the boss, Tong Wei, sneered, “Well, no matter who they are, they can come here, but they can’t leave alive. I want the money, but they can leave their lives here.”
As Tong Wei was talking, Qian Meng walked in with a confident smile on his handsome face.
” Young Master Tong, I’ve heard you recruited a new driver? Very skilled?”
“Brother Meng, come and sit. Your news is quick. I was planning to play around today and tell you tomorrow, but you came on your own. Look at this.”
Tong Wei pointed at the big screen, and Qian Meng glanced at the numbers, slightly stunned. “Playing so big tonight?”
“It’s not our intention to play big. We don’t know who these two people are. One bet a 100 million, and the other bet a billion, all on a new car. I heard the driver is a woman.”
Tong Wei found this hard to believe. This was the first time he encountered something so absurd in years.
Qian Meng squinted at the screen. “Two women? I haven’t heard of any woman in Beijing being this bold. Even Miss Mu and Miss Jiang wouldn’t bet so extravagantly, would they? This should be interesting!”
“Then let’s play along with these two girls. If that money doesn’t end up in our pockets, that wouldn’t make sense!” With that, Qian Meng picked up his phone and placed a 300-million bet. It wasn’t his entire fortune, but it was all he could currently afford.
Since Wen Xin took the billion from him, his available funds had become pitiful.
“Meng, isn’t 300 million a bit much?”
Tong Wei and the others glanced at Qian Meng in unison. They weren’t sure about the women’s skills and didn’t feel secure about the bet.
“What’s there to fear? No woman has ever made it to the world’s top fifty drivers. Even if she dares to play, are you sure she can win? Plus, this racetrack is yours. Whether they can safely leave is up to you.”
Qian Meng leaned back in his chair, laughing at the others. “You don’t have to follow me. Bet what you want, but if I win big, don’t be jealous!”
“Brother Meng is right. We’ll bet. I can’t afford as much; I’ll bet 100 million…”
“I’ll bet 100 million…”
“I’ll also bet 100 million…”
Seeing everyone placing their bets, Tong Wei bit the bullet and placed a 200 million bet. “Everyone’s in high spirits. I can’t lag behind. I’ll bet 200 million and let Meng take the big prize!”
The room filled with laughter as if they already pocketed the winnings.
Before the race, Chu Yunxuan helped Wen Xin check the equipment and the car’s performance. After confirming everything was normal, she sat in the passenger seat.
“So, how’s the track after a test lap?”
Wen Xin had just driven around the track leisurely, testing it out, and found the design quite good.
“Not bad, the curves are fine, the danger level is medium. Don’t worry, it’ll be fine. My billion is still on the line!”
Wen Xin pointed at the big screen, casually joking with Chu Yunxuan. She wasn’t worried about this track.
“I trust you. You’re amazing. I used to wonder what kind of man could stand by your side. Now I think it could only be Mu Chengxi.”
They were chatting and laughing in the car when a piece of great news reached the private box.
“What? You said the female driver of car 857 was driving on the track like a normal road? Haha, do they think the slowest wins the championship? Haha, this is hilarious!”
Tong Wei laughed at the absurdity. He never imagined someone with such skill would enter the race. He thought their backer must be foolishly rich.
“What’s so funny? Maybe their boss is just humoring the girls, telling the staff to take care of them, make sure they have fun, and then come back often!”
Qian Meng laughed smugly. Dealing with foolish rich people was just something they had to do!
The race began.
Wen Xin started slow but steady. She stayed in the middle, finishing the first lap in eighth place.
