Chapter 8 The Race Begins

Upon hearing that, Li Hong turned his head and, seeing the scene described by the man, his eyes instantly blazed with rage, his gaze even flickering with a thick intent to kill.

Li Hong immediately walked over, followed by four or five rich second-generations at his heels, and at the very end, there were even more than ten tattooed men, each with a fierce look, obviously used to the thug life.

When Li Hong arrived in front of Yan Shuangshuang and saw the intimate scene between Chu Mo and Yan Shuangshuang, his face sank, and he cursed, "Kid, who do you think you are? How dare you hold my woman's hand!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Mo's brows furrowed slightly, and he looked up to see a flamboyantly dressed young man barking at him.

"First, I'm a human being, as for what crap you are, I don't care. Secondly, she's been leading me the whole time!" Chu Mo glanced at Li Hong with a cold indifference and spoke calmly.

He's seen too many of such arrogant rich kids. However, ninety percent of them, who have crossed him, have met with pitiful fates.

"Shut up, who's your woman." Yan Shuangshuang looked at Li Hong with disgust and said.

Li Hong was the school bully, moreover, he and Yan Shuangshuang were in the same class. He had been pursuing Yan Shuangshuang ceaselessly but had always failed, yet the more she refused, the more Li Hong persisted!

Li Hong was infuriated but couldn't lash out at Yan Shuangshuang, so he naturally turned his aggression towards Chu Mo, shouting furiously with steam coming out of his ears, "Motherfucker, let go of her hand this instant!"

Suddenly, the dozen or so tattooed young men behind him crowded around, looking like they were about to beat Chu Mo to a pulp at the slightest disagreement.

"Have you been eating shit? I wonder why your mouth stinks so much?" Chu Mo pretended to look disgusted.

"Brave kid, well done, cripple him!" Li Hong laughed out of extreme anger and waved his hand at the dozen tattooed young men behind him.

"Wait a minute!" Chu Mo suddenly raised his hand, gesturing to Li Hong with his fingers, "Come here, I have something to say to you."

"Hmph!!" Li Hong snorted arrogantly and walked up to Chu Mo, scoffing, "Kid, getting cold feet now? Kneel down and apologize to me right this moment, maybe I..."

Slap!

"I kneel to your motherfucker!" Without another word, Chu Mo raised his hand and slapped Li Hong's face, instantly swelling it up like a pig's head, blood gushing from his nose.

"Holy shit, there's blood." Li Hong touched his nose, cursing furiously, "You dare hit me?"

"What if I did? I just hit you." Chu Mo followed with a few more slaps.

Stunned, Li Hong recovered and his eyes looked ready to explode, "What the heck... motherfucker, beat him!"

With a sweep of Li Hong's hand, the dozen tattooed brutes, in a flash, with menacing faces, closed in on Chu Mo.

At that moment, Yan Shuangshuang immediately stepped forward, coldly said, "Stop!"

Li Hong quickly stopped the dozen tattooed brutes, not wanting to hurt Yan Shuangshuang, and glared at Chu Mo, his tone challenging, "Kid, what's the point of hiding behind a woman? Have the guts to race with me!"

"Race? With your level of trash, I really can't be bothered." Chu Mo scoffed.

For Chu Mo, street racers like Li Hong were simply not worth his time.

"Tch, kid, stop pretending here. Do you know what I'm called around here? Tell him, everyone!" Speaking of this, Li Hong revealed a smug look on his face.

"The Racing King!"

"The Racing King!"

At that moment, nearly everyone present shouted out.

"Did you hear that? I am the Racing King around here. If you're scared, immediately call me Grandpa, and I'll let you off the hook, what do you say?" Li Hong spoke with considerable arrogance.

Seeing Li Hong purposely provoking, concern flitted through Yan Shuangshuang's eyes. She advised Chu Mo, "Chu Mo, please don't agree to it. This guy is well-known as a top-notch racer around here. If you accept, you're bound to lose out!"

"It's fine!" Chu Mo merely smiled and shook his head as he looked at Li Hong, speaking indifferently, "Grandson, what if I win?"

"You? What a joke. Nobody has ever beaten me, Li Hong, here on the ring bridge. If you win, I'll give you five million!" Li Hong said with supreme confidence.

"Kid, have you not heard? Our Young Master Li has been reigning supreme for three consecutive terms in the car racing arena of Qingyang City. Not to mention unbeatable in Qingyang City, there are only a few in the whole of China who can compete with our Young Master Li!"

"That's right, dream on about winning! Might as well go dreaming in your mom's spring and autumn dreams!"

Surrounding heirs of rich families and a crowd of young men and women all laughed and mocked Chu Mo nonstop.

Chu Mo, however, sneered in disdain, ignoring their sarcastic stares, and said: "Money, to this young master, is just a concept of numbers. Let's up the ante a bit, if you lose, you have to kneel before this young master and kowtow ten times loudly, and from then on, you're not allowed to harass Yan Shuangshuang anymore! Otherwise, every time I see you, I'll beat you up once!"

"Alright! If you lose, I'll cripple your hands! Dare to agree?" Li Hong's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness.

"No problem!" Chu Mo replied indifferently.

"Let me tell you the rules. You can use any car for the race. The track runs from here over the ring bridge. In short, life and death are fated, wealth and honor are decreed by heaven! Meaning, if any accidents occur during the race, neither party is responsible." Li Hong briefly explained the rules.

"Chu Mo, do you really want to race him for me?" Yan Shuangshuang looked at Chu Mo with some concern.

"Don't worry, since this guy wants to court death, this young master will give him a lesson he'll never forget."

Having said that, Chu Mo turned to Li Hong and said, "Let's get started, my time is precious!"

Very soon, the two sports cars were parked on the starting line. Before long, both cars started their engines, ready to go.

Chu Mo chose Yan Shuangshuang as his companion, while Li Hong picked a good-looking woman.

"Young Master Li will win!"

"Young Master Li will surely take the beauty home tonight!"

Most of the onlookers at the surrounding area knew Li Hong, nearly all cheering one-sidedly for him.

Hearing the flattery around him, Li Hong smiled smugly and said to Yan Shuangshuang through the open car window: "Shuangshuang, see that? Everyone believes I'll win. After winning this race, I'll throw the most romantic dinner for you, making you the most dazzling woman under the spotlight tonight!"

Seeing Li Hong so pleased with himself, Yan Shuangshuang trembled with anger and said, "Li Hong, what are you so proud of? Chu Mo will definitely beat you!"

"Good, I'll be waiting." Li Hong smirked and nodded, though his face was far from joyful.

Now I'll tolerate you, but when I've got you, I'll play you hard, fuck you! When I'm tired of you, I'll dump you! You'll be in agony!

A demonic voice roared inside Li Hong's heart.

Boom! After both parties were ready, a woman walked to the middle of the two sports cars, lifted the flag in her hands, and shouted, "Get ready!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"Go!"

Instantly, Li Hong's car roared off, while Chu Mo still stood still, causing Yan Shuangshuang to become instantly anxious. "Chu Mo, chase him down quick!"

"No rush!" Chu Mo smiled lightly, as if everything was under control.

The next second, he pressed the gas pedal, accelerating the car. The whole motion was smooth and fluid. Chu Mo's eyes, sharp like an eagle's, became extremely focused.

Whoosh! The car shot out like a wild beast!

At this moment, Chu Mo's demeanor underwent a dramatic change, causing Yan Shuangshuang to be momentarily stunned, her eyes slightly infatuated. This man is so handsome!
