"Definitely no problem!" Fang Chao and Han Shanchi probably hadn’t realized that Su Xuan’s people had rescued them. After climbing out of their car, they didn’t even thank him. "Then you two keep on being great," Su Xuan said, not bothering to say anything more. "I need to hurry up and finish the rest of the race." He turned around and got into his car. Once the flock of sheep dispersed, he floored the accelerator and sped along the smooth asphalt road toward the finish line. After Su Xuan left, Fang Chao glanced at his race car with a bitter expression. "Teacher, we never even got to use our secret weapon!" His car was now lying belly-up in a ditch like an overturned turtle. "I know," Han Shanchi said, his face just as bitter as he wiped the mud away with his arm. Fang Chao’s race car was equipped with a Nitrous Oxide System (NOS) developed by the American HOLLEY Company. It worked on the same principle as turbocharging, but it was far more intense. The system could instantaneously boost the engine’s power to achieve astonishing speeds, making it an unbeatable asset in a straight-line drag race. Fang Chao had intended to use this system on the final asphalt stretch to crush Su Xuan and win the championship, but he never imagined his car would be rammed into a ditch by a herd of goats! By now, the mountain rain had cleared. Bright sunlight streamed down onto the mountains, and the rising mist created a dreamlike, fairy-tale scene. Bathed in sunlight, the asphalt road ahead looked like a black silk ribbon. "After all the fuss this morning, everyone must be hungry, right?" Su Xuan glanced at Alice and the children in the car. "Not really," Alice and the others replied, shaking their heads. "That’s good." Su Xuan gazed off in one direction and smiled. "Once the race is over, I’ll take you all to a newly opened resort. A friend of mine is the vice president there and gave me a membership card. He wants me to go and liven things up a bit." "Okay, okay!" Alice and the others immediately nodded happily. Before long, the asphalt road came to an end. Su Xuan got out of his car and glanced at the drone that had been following him. The drone’s speaker crackled to life. "The race is officially over. Please return to the starting point to review the race footage. If there are no objections, I will announce the results." It was the voice of the referee, Old Li. Su Xuan nodded at the drone, then got back in his car and started driving back. When he drove back to the place where Fang Chao had crashed, he couldn’t help but laugh. Somehow, Fang Chao and Han Shanchi had managed to climb out of the deep ditch. Covered in mud and water, they were now squatting by the roadside in a daze, looking like a pair of beggars. Seeing Su Xuan’s Charman King approaching, Fang Chao and Han Shanchi scrambled to their feet, waving their hands frantically. "Stop the car, stop the car! We need a ride back too!" Su Xuan stuck his head out the window and said with a grin, "The fare is twenty thousand." Fang Chao and Han Shanchi immediately glared. Is this kid obsessed with money? Did he get this Charman King by ripping people off ? "We’ll talk when we get back to the starting point!" Fang Chao and Han Shanchi declared, shamelessly climbing into Su Xuan’s car. However, they were dumbstruck the moment they got in. The little girl, Xiaoyun, had placed a few tissues on the seat, a clear sign that she thought they were dirty. Fang Chao couldn’t help but grumble internally. My father is the CEO of a multi-billion-dollar corporation! I’m a billionaire’s heir! How dare she imply I’m dirty? Han Shanchi was mortified as well. Who does she think I am? I’m a renowned figure in the racing world! Even in retirement, my reputation precedes me. I’m doing you a favor by even sitting in your busted car, and you have the nerve to call me dirty? This is outrageous! But then again... this Charman King really lives up to its name. The interior space is huge, and the upholstery is unbelievably luxurious! And that blonde woman... she’s gorgeous! "Hey, what was your name again?" Fang Chao asked suddenly. "Right, Su Xuan!" Fang Chao tilted his chin up, saying grudgingly, "You only won this race by a fluke. I let you win. You agree with that, right?" Su Xuan replied nonchalantly, "Then I have Young Master Fang to thank for that." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩 Fang Chao scoffed. "You’d better be grateful! Do you have any idea what this means? By beating me, you didn’t just win a race. You’ve basically walked over my corpse to make a name for yourself in the amateur racing scene!" Han Shanchi nudged him. "That’s not the right saying." Fang Chao blinked, realizing his mistake, and quickly corrected himself. "Oh, right. I mean you’ve stood on my shoulders to make a name for yourself! You’ve caused a huge sensation! You’ll get invited to all kinds of competitions now. You’re going to be rich!" "I’m not interested in any of that," Su Xuan said. "I just like delivering packages." "What?" Fang Chao glared. "You like delivering packages? Don’t tell me you’re actually a courier. And don’t you dare say you learned to drive like that from delivering packages!" "It’s true," Su Xuan said. Fang Chao obviously didn’t believe him and scoffed. "Right, and I deliver takeout!" Han Shanchi didn’t believe it either. "And I’m a ride-share driver!" Then, the two exchanged a look of tacit understanding and turned to Su Xuan. "Be honest. Are you a professional racer hired by Cen Haonan?" If that were the case, then according to their agreement, Su Xuan would be disqualified from winning the race. Too lazy to argue with them, Su Xuan simply pulled out his courier ID badge and tossed it over. Fang Chao and Han Shanchi stared at the badge, then looked at each other in stunned silence. He’s really a courier? We used every trick in the book and still lost to a courier? No way. We refuse to believe it. We’d rather die than believe it! Just then, Su Xuan’s phone rang. It was Lu Dachun. "Su Xuan! Remember how I told you some bigwigs from corporate were coming to inspect our branch over the next couple of days? Well, they just called! They’re about to arrive at the high-speed rail station. Can you take your Charman King and go pick them up?" "I’m a little busy right now," Su Xuan replied. "Can I get out of it?" "You’re the most handsome and popular courier at our depot! It wouldn’t be right if you didn’t go. You have to go, you have to!" "Alright, fine. If I’m running late, just do your best to stall them." Lu Dachun had indeed told him about the leadership inspection yesterday, even asking him to help entertain them. "Great! I’ll be waiting for you!" Lu Dachun said, hanging up the phone happily. Fang Chao and Han Shanchi were left completely dumbfounded by the phone call. That can’t possibly be an act, can it? So he really is a courier! Holy crap! Since when are couriers this incredible? This completely shatters our perception of the world! When they returned to the rain canopy at the starting line, Fang Chao noticed something bizarre. His own men were treating Su Xuan with immense respect, even bowing and nodding as they greeted him. Have they all turned traitor?
