Chapter 23 Teammates Driving One Crazy

The night was hazy with a drunken air. Chen Shuyuan, holding a goblet in one hand, drew the curtain and gazed at the star - studded night sky. She hugged her arms, and her eyes were misted with tears. She drained the wine in the glass in one gulp. In a trance, she longed to cry her heart out like an ordinary woman, but she didn't have that right. Since she was sensible, she had been labeled as "excellent."

It's tough being a woman, and it's even tougher being a woman burdened with heavy responsibilities who has never even met her fiancé. The word "tough" can't fully express all of Chen Shuyuan's emotions at this moment. Perhaps there was more helplessness, hesitation, and even self - pity...

Chen Shuyuan, with eyes blurred from drinking, stared intently at the computer screen. Xiao Sheng, imitating Chen Shuyuan by holding a tea mug in one hand, had a confused look on his face. Looking at Chen Shuyuan's current appearance from the side, he somehow felt a "subtle sadness." Sentimental women were the most charming. A woman with a story could understand a man's heart. Xiao Sheng, who was intoxicated, felt an indescribable resonance. He drained the tap water in the mug, sat up straight, and muttered to himself:

"Wow, could this be love? Has my spring arrived?" Just as Xiao Sheng was lost in wild imagination, the earpiece in his ear untimely rang with Scout's voice, which made him "want to stop but couldn't."

"Boss, we've got it all figured out. The biggest underground illegal car - racing venue in Hong Kong City is at the foot of Niulan Mountain in the suburbs. Bets start at 11 p.m. every night, and the official race begins at 1 a.m. The minimum bet for a single race is 50,000 yuan..." Gritting his teeth, Xiao Sheng gesticulated wildly, as if wanting to strangle Scout, who was hiding in the dark. Why couldn't he report the work at some other time? He just had to cut off Xiao Sheng's daydreaming right when this bumpkin was "inspired" and feeling sentimental about love. With a gloomy face, this bumpkin, unable to see Scout at the moment, could only firmly keep this account in mind.

"Is the car I asked 'AK' to prepare ready?"

"It's all set. Just now, AK easily stole a racing car and parked it outside the Spring - Filled Garden Villa area as you ordered..."

"I've explained to you so many times. This isn't stealing; it's borrowing. Understand? We're going to return it. What about the money? Is the money ready?"

"By the way, there happened to be 200,000 yuan in cash in the car, so we got it all sorted at once..." Hearing this, Xiao Sheng felt like crying but had no tears. These guys just had to keep plucking the wool from one sheep. There are so many wealthy smugglers in Hong Kong City. Couldn't they pick on different ones?

In the car - racing early this morning, although the other side didn't leave any traces, the experienced Xiao Sheng still detected a clue from their "superb" driving skills. Combined with the fact that they communicated in the local Hong Kong dialect, Xiao Sheng had reason to believe that those drivers were all top - notch in the underground car - racing scene in Hong Kong City. In other words, the group of people last night were just pawns, or even scapegoats, for the mastermind behind the scenes. But this line couldn't be cut off for Xiao Sheng, who had just arrived in Hong Kong City and was unfamiliar with the place. AK was currently following up on Liu Jiming's family, and Scout was lurking in the dark to keep an overall view of the situation. As a result, only Xiao Sheng could act alone at night.

With a "tightly - woven net" set up around the Chen residence and Scout's covert assistance, Xiao Sheng believed that few "capable people" could even touch a hair on Chen Shuyuan. After getting everything ready, at around 10:15 p.m., when he saw all the lights in the Chen residence go out, Xiao Sheng "disguised" himself, quietly climbed over the wall, and disappeared into the night with brisk steps.

In a thick greenbelt outside the Spring - Filled Garden Villa area, Xiao Sheng, with his hands on his hips, had an urge to tear Scout and AK apart. Looking at the second - hand Santana in front of him, which was worth no more than 30,000 yuan at most, Xiao Sheng was furious and on the verge of going crazy.

"Scout, explain to me. The 'racing car' you guys mentioned is this second - hand Santana in front of me?"

"Boss, AK knows your low - key style. Although the exterior of this car is that of a second - hand Santana, all the internal parts are high - end. It's definitely a top - notch racing car..."

"Really?"

"Of course. Don't you know AK's ability to handle cars?"

"Then why can't I start the engine?" Xiao Sheng, who had tried several times while sitting in the car, frowned, tilted his head, and asked with an indignant look. Scout on the other end of the phone fell silent. Even he didn't know how to answer this question. After about two minutes, Scout, who had gotten the answer from AK, quickly replied:

"Boss, due to the urgency of time, AK didn't connect the ignition wire when assembling the car. You just need to connect the black and red wire ends under the car key, and the engine will start directly. AK said this is the most advanced way..."

"Good grief. It's really 'advanced.' I might as well pull the car with a donkey. How did I end up with teammates like you?" Although he was dissatisfied, Xiao Sheng did as Scout said. Sure enough, as soon as the two wire ends touched, the car started. It was amazing!

"Boss, I forgot to tell you that AK also adjusted the speedometer. The 10 mph shown on it actually means 100 mph. The maximum power of this assembled car is 300 mph. Going any faster would be dangerous. This is to help you easily notice and use the combustor in the trunk..."

"Bang..." Before Scout could finish this sentence, Xiao Sheng, who had stepped on the gas pedal, shot forward. As soon as he shifted gears and stepped on the gas all the way, Xiao Sheng didn't expect the car to be so "sensitive." It directly crashed into the nearby wall. Fortunately, his driving skills were excellent, or he might have gotten injured today...

A mountain road that usually took only ten minutes took Xiao Sheng nearly twenty minutes to drive. This modified high - horsepower car gave Xiao Sheng the feeling that it was about to fall apart. Fortunately, AK's assembly skills were quite good. After Xiao Sheng got familiar with the car, once he entered the provincial road, he was like a shooting star, shuttling through the quiet night of Hong Kong City.

Wearing a hot miniskirt that exposed nearly half of her creamy breasts on the upper body, with a thick layer of makeup deliberately applied to her bright eyes, and stepping on sharp high - heeled shoes, when Wang Li showed up at the underground car - racing at Niulan Mountain dressed like this, she immediately caused a commotion among the crowd. Not to mention her breasts that were larger than 36D, just her flirtatious outfit was enough to attract a horde of men.

Here, as long as your driving skills are good enough and you have enough money, you can take away a woman dressed like Wang Li, provided she's willing. Holding a ladies' cigarette between her fingers, Wang Li got out of her not - so - expensive Hyundai Tucson. A seductive smile that made people daydream lingered on her face.

Just as Xiao Sheng had analyzed, Wang Li, who was very familiar with the local gray forces in Hong Kong City, firmly believed that the four drivers last night were definitely hired from here by the mastermind behind the scenes. As long as she handled things properly, she could surely get some useful information. Wang Li, who had a professional background, had an unparalleled advantage. Her hot outfit immediately caught the attention of the "organizer" of this event. A bald - headed man who was originally sitting in the crowd, surrounded by women, pushed aside the few scantily - clad women in front of him and walked towards Wang Li, licking his lips.
