Chapter 131: Chapter 131 Dapeng's Scorn
With the young Dapeng's command, Xu Ruoxuan withdrew her gaze. She lifted her alabaster neck high, like a proud queen, ready to embark on her brand-new journey.
Roar!!!
She slammed her foot on the accelerator, and the Ferrari LaFerrari burst forth like a prehistoric beast unleashed.
30 km/h! 60 km/h!
100 km/h!
In less than three seconds, the Ferrari LaFerrari's speed had already surpassed 100 km/h. Its tires screeched fiercely against the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.
In contrast, Ye Fan had just ignited the engine, released the handbrake, and shifted into gear. Starting in first, the AE86 slowly made its way onto the highway like a sluggish sheep.
One hundred meters! Five hundred meters!
One thousand meters!
By the time the AE86 had just entered the highway, the Ferrari LaFerrari had already pulled a full kilometer ahead. Ye Fan, sitting in the driver's seat of the AE86, could only see the tail lights of the Ferrari LaFerrari at this point.
Fast, it's just too fast!
The brand-new Ferrari LaFerrari was completely dominating the AE86 at the start.
Seeing the Ferrari LaFerrari getting farther and farther away, Zhuang Jingwen in the AE86's passenger seat slowly spoke up, "Actually, she's right, the AE86 might be a legendary car, but it's ultimately been phased out. It would take a miracle for the AE86 to beat the Ferrari LaFerrari unless you pick out a sports car from the club to race with!"
"Sister Jingwen, do you believe in miracles?" Ye Fan, left in Xu Ruoxuan's dust, asked with a calm smile on his face.
Zhuang Jingwen was silent for a moment, "Maybe there could be a miracle, but it's unlikely for the AE86 to stand a chance against the Ferrari LaFerrari!"
"It's okay, if there's no miracle, then I'll just take Sister Jingwen for a joyride today," Ye Fan said with a smile.
Zhuang Jingwen turned to look at Ye Fan. Seeing his beaming smile, free of any trace of fear, she couldn't help feeling puzzled. If it were any ordinary racer who'd been left far behind by their opponent from the start, they would probably be in a panic, like a scared dog. In contrast, Ye Fan was completely unflustered, which was truly unbelievable.
Thinking back to the past few years Ye Fan had worked at her barbecue stall, where he kept a low profile, only to step in to save her twice at critical moments, and with his medical skills reaching the pinnacle, she couldn't help but speculate silently.
Could it be that a miracle would really happen to Ye Fan today?
"Hahaha, sis, we've left that guy so far behind he's out of sight!"
The young man Xiaozi in the passenger seat of the Ferrari LaFerrari looked back and couldn't see a trace of the AE86 behind them.
"We can't be careless!" Xu Ruoxuan said, watching the road ahead and speaking in a low voice.
Having been a genius since her youth, she could see that Ye Fan was no ordinary person. He might look unremarkable in his everyday clothes, but Xu Ruoxuan could tell that there was something extraordinary about him.
She knew that any highly accomplished man would be momentarily distracted by her beauty at first sight, yet Ye Fan had merely shown a bit of surprise. Her sixth sense as a woman clearly told her that Ye Fan was very unusual—not just in person, but his driving skills were probably terrifyingly strong.
Xiaozi said with disdain, "Sis, aren't you overestimating this guy? Even if it kills me, I cannot believe that an outdated AE86 could ever overtake a Ferrari LaFerrari!"
As a member of the racing clans within Central Plains, he was acutely aware of the astonishing explosive power of Xu Ruoxuan's Ferrari LaFerrari.
The Ferrari LaFerrari, globally renowned, made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2013. It was introduced as a replacement for the Ferrari Enzo and was limited to just 499 units. LaFerrari boasts exceptional performance, aerodynamic efficiency, and handling, setting a new benchmark for supercars.
What's truly terrifying is that the Ferrari LaFerrari employs a V12 engine, accelerating to 100 km/h in less than 3 seconds, reaching 200 km/h in under 7 seconds, with a top speed of over 350 km/h.
This Ferrari LaFerrari was not easily acquired by Xu Ruoxuan from abroad; it cost a full 50 million. Later, she had it personally modified by a world-class master tuner, incurring another 20 million in modification expenses. After the modifications, its top speed had broken 400 km/h.
In Xiaozi's heart, such supercars with extraordinary performance are rare in the world. Ye Fan, driving his AE86, even if he exerted all his strength, could only trail behind, inhaling the LaFerrari's exhaust.
"Xiaozi, this Ye Fan is no simple character; it's wise to be cautious!" Xu Ruoxuan said gravely.
"Sister, you worry too much!"
As he spoke, Xiaozi took out his phone and made a call, "Hey, Dapeng, are you following from behind? That AE86 of his is a gem. Keep your eyes on him, and don't let him slip away midway!"
"Hahaha, Xiaozi, just let Sister rest assured, I'm right behind him! I'm dying of laughter here, his AE86 has just barely hit 100 km/h!" Dapeng's mocking laughter came through the phone.
Hearing this, Xiaozi turned to Xu Ruoxuan and said, "Sister, you heard that. The kid has just crossed 100 km/h. Speaking of which, Sister, why bother comparing yourself with this guy? If you want to race, you can easily go to the racetrack and find professional racers. This kind of guy isn't worth your time!"
"Xiaozi, you don't understand!" Xu Ruoxuan's beautiful eyes shimmered continuously.
She and Su Ruoxue had attended the same university, although they weren't in the same major. But the two had met, and Xu Ruoxuan knew of Su Ruoxue's peerless elegance, like the most beautiful masterpiece bestowed by heaven.
There had been no fewer suitors for Su Ruoxue than for her; and as a woman, Xu Ruoxuan felt somewhat unconvinced inside her heart.
After all, she was born into the Xu Family, which was Central Plains' number one wealthy family at the time. In terms of family background, Su Ruoxue couldn't hold a candle to her; and she was clever as a demon, far surpassing Su Ruoxue in intellect; even her looks were barely any less than Su Ruoxue's. So why could Su Ruoxue be considered her equal as the campus' number one goddess?
Later on, she went abroad to study and continually set numerous records. Upon returning to Central Plains, she heard that Su Ruoxue had gotten married.
At the time, she merely thought that apart from being pretty, Su Ruoxue's life would be nothing more than a fleeting blossom and couldn't achieve much. But after meeting Ye Fan, whose composure impressed her, today she wanted to see just how capable the man that Su Ruoxue fancied, who once held the title of campus goddess alongside her, truly was.
Xiaozi scoffed with disdain, "Sister, you're definitely being overly concerned!"
This time, Xu Ruoxuan gave no response. Her beautiful eyes were as deep as abysses, fathomless. She slammed the accelerator, the LaFerrari's engine roaring as its speed soared relentlessly.
130 km/h! 160 km/h!
200 km/h!
Swifter than a speeding bullet, the LaFerrari's speed had broken 200 km/h and was still climbing.
At the same time, the AE86 had just gradually reached 120 km/h.
Zhuang Jingwen, in the passenger seat, spoke solemnly, "This AE86's top speed is most likely capped at 160 km/h, while her LaFerrari has been modified; I'm afraid it can break 400 km/h. Ye Fan, how will you deal with what comes next?"
"Let the soldiers meet their match, and the water its dam, Sister Jingwen, no need to worry!" Ye Fan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of a devilish smile.
Boom!!!
The next moment, the youth Dapeng, driving a War God GTR, sped up aggressively, fixing Ye Fan with a mocking look, "Too slow, way too slow. In my opinion, you might as well surrender early, hand over that AE86 to Sister as a token of defeat. In this race, you have lost; there's no suspense!"
"With that snail's pace, still dreaming of beating Sister? Maybe in your next life! Hahahaha..."
