Chapter 28: Hasty
Editor: Henyee Translations
A thought flashed across Su Qing's mind. Since Huo Qi was so difficult to deal with, she should think of a way to get rid of him as soon as possible.
She looked up at him and repeated, "I'll compete with you."
Huo Qi smiled slowly. "Sure. Do you know how to drive?"
Su Qing glared at him, and her gaze amused Huo Qi.
Su Rui felt that there was probably something wrong with Huo Qi. How could he still smile when his sister was glaring at him like he was an idiot? He was really shameless.
"Since it's a competition, there has to be a bet." Su Qing looked at Huo Qi and suggested, "If I win, I want you to never appear in front of me again."
Huo Qi looked at her, his eyes darkening. After a while, he asked, "What if I win?"
Su Qing smiled. "You can't beat me." Her lips curled up slightly, and her eyes shone with absolute confidence.
Huo Qi felt his heart skip a beat. He smiled and said, "If I win, you'll agree to our engagement. How about that?"
Su Rui smiled speechlessly. He wanted to mock Huo Qi for his annoying tricks, but Su Qing held his hand down and looked at Huo Qi. She smiled confidently, "Sure."
Su Lu looked at Huo Qi, then at Su Qing. He had a bad feeling. Su Qing looked so confident. Could it be that she was really good at racing?
When they reached the tracks, Su Rui pulled Su Qing's arm and said worriedly, "Why did you agree to it? This person is difficult to deal with. Let's just ignore him."
Su Qing said calmly, "You said that he's difficult to deal with. Let's get rid of him as soon as possible so that he won't annoy us anymore."
"But you shouldn't have placed such a huge bet," Su Lu said. "How did it end up with an engagement?"
Su Qing looked in Huo Qi's direction and ignored his smile. "Why do we need to care about the stakes? We just need to win."
Su Rui looked at her worriedly. "Have you raced before? Why don't I help you?"
Actually, both Su Lu and him were worried.
They had never seen Su Qing race before, so they didn't know how strong she was. Wasn't it a little too rash to bet on her lifelong happiness on a single race?
However, when they saw Su Qing's confident expression, the two brothers tacitly swallowed their words. How could their sister lose? Su Qing wasn't someone who would act recklessly.
It didn't matter if she lost. As long as Su Qing was unwilling, no one could force her to do anything she didn't like. The two brothers thought to themselves and gave each other a look, and decided to treat it as though Huo Qi was entertaining their sister.
Huo Qi walked over with his helmet and looked at Su Qing, who was glaring at him. He asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Do you want to go back on your word?"
Su Qing put on her helmet. "Let's start. Don't go back on your word if you lose."
"I'll return the same words back to you," Huo Qi said. "You can't go back on your word if you lose."
Su Qing glanced at him and snorted softly. She then opened the car door and got into the driver's seat.
Su Qing was also wearing a red racing suit today. Su Rui didn't notice it earlier, but now that Su Qing had put on a helmet, he suddenly felt that she looked very familiar.
Huo Qi had already walked to his car. Huo Feng looked at him and asked, "Young Master, aren't you bullying her?"
"I have no choice. I can't turn down their kind invitation," Huo Qi said with a smile.
Huo Feng could only wish Miss Su well in his heart. Huo Qi's driving skills were almost unparalleled, but he had always kept a low profile and race casually. He had never displayed his real skills to anyone.
Huo Qi placed his hand on the steering wheel. In order to woo her, he had no choice but to do this. If she said that he was bullying her, so be it. The most important thing was to get her first.
This man was devious, and Su Qing was still too young to see through it.
Su Lu looked at Su Rui, who had been staring blankly at Su Qing's profile, and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you staring at Su Qing?"
Su Rui rubbed his chin and frowned. "When I saw her just now, I felt that she looked especially familiar. I've seen her somewhere before!"
Because it wasn't a formal competition, there weren't many people. When the countdown ended and the two cars rushed out, the venue was very quiet.
The car that Su Qing was driving was her second brother's silver car. The car was top-notch, and it was one of the best cars in the country.
The last time Huo Qi came, he had already missed the competition between Su Qing and Su Rui. If he had paid attention to that competition, he would have immediately realized that Su Qing was the mysterious person who had defeated Su Rui that day.
Su Rui's eyes widened as he looked at Su Qing from the stands. He said in surprise, "Damn! That person was Qingqing?"
Chapter 29: His Belated Gentlemanly Ways

Su Lu turned to look at Su Rui's shocked expression and asked, "What do you mean?"
The charm of racing was that in the pursuit of extreme speed, one could freely display their individuality and charm. Therefore, everyone's style on the track was unique. Those who often mingled on the track could tell at a glance whose style it belonged to.
When Su Qing drove out, Su Rui could already feel that Su Qing was the red Phantom who had won against him that night.
Su Rui chuckled, "No wonder she's so confident. It turns out that she's really capable."
There were too many surprising things about Su Qing.
Su Lu still had a blank expression on his face. Su Rui smiled and recounted what happened that day to him. Su Lu was also surprised, "Su Qing has the ability to defeat you?"
Su Rui nodded. "This sister of ours is really a treasure! I'm really liking her more and more."
He thought for a moment and continued, "So, when she went back late that day, it wasn't because she went out to play, but because she came to compete with me. Then, why was Su Yan so certain about what she said?"
Su Rui looked at Su Lu and concluded, "Su Yan must be deliberately framing Qingqing."
The truth was finally out. Su Lu looked at Su Rui and said, "Su Yan is quite scheming. I could already tell at the exhibition that day. But why is she targeting Qingqing?"
While the two of them were still pondering this question, Huo Qi and Su Qing were already engaged in an intense battle on the tracks. Huo Qi didn't expect Su Qing to be so skilled, so he was a little stunned. He smiled as he watched Su Qing's silver car from the rearview mirror.
Su Qing held the steering wheel, and her eyes slowly lit up. Huo Qi was surprisingly good. She wanted to end the battle quickly, but she didn't expect the race to be so close.
Su Lu looked at the two cars and frowned slightly. "I didn't know that Hou Qi is that good."
Su Rui's attention returned to the track. Looking at Huo Qi's smooth drift, he was a little surprised. "He's really something. He can actually drift so easily in such a difficult bend."
From time to time, there would be cries of surprise. The audience were all stunned by the two racing cars on the track.
This speed was already Su Qing's limit, but she still felt that it was hard for her to catch up to Huo Qi. This man was just pretending to be weak. Su Qing gritted her teeth. Huo Qi's driving skills had already surpassed Su Rui's.
Huo Qi was excited. The extreme speed stimulated his nerves. The two of them chased each other, and the finish line was already in sight.
Su Lu frowned, and Su Rui exclaimed, "Qingqing lost to Huo Qi!"
"Second Brother, did you go easy on Qingqing during your race with her?"
Su Rui looked at him angrily. "I didn't even know that it was Qingqing back then. Why would I let her win?"
Su Lu narrowed his eyes, "That means that you lost to Qingqing, and Qingqing lost to Huo Qi? As someone who topped the country's racing leagues for a few years, how could this happen?"
"Shut up! Let's hurry down and take a look first."
Su Qing stopped the car behind Huo Qi. After a long time, she finally accepted the fact that she had lost to him.
Opening the car door, Su Qing took off her helmet and brushed her fingers through her hair, looking extremely suave.
Huo Qi looked at her with a smile. "Very impressive. I didn't expect you to have such good driving skills."
Su Qing glanced at him without saying anything.
Huo Qi didn't realize how indulgent he looked towards Su Qing now. "I mean it. You did very well on the bends just now. If we raced a few more rounds, it would be hard to tell who would win."
Su Qing had to admit that he was indeed very skilled. She had been a little impatient and underestimated her opponent today, but she had always been a good sport. She said, "You're indeed stronger than me. You've won."
Huo Qi realized that he really liked this woman's temperament. "Oh? I didn't expect you to expect you to admit it so easily."
"I always keep my words," Su Qing said. "But let me make this clear first. I'm only 18 years old. Getting married is illegal."
Many things flashed across Su Qing's mind, but in the end, she could only find this lame excuse.
Huo Qi smiled. It was only now that he belatedly showed his gentlemanly ways. "Don't be so nervous. I'm not that domineering. I was just joking around with you. If it's really so difficult for you, then forget it."
Su Qing eyed him suspiciously. "Would you be so kind?"
