Chapter 194: 194, Is He Secretly in Love with Me (4)_1
“Tsk, tsk, these foreign spicy girls have such fine figures!” Han Yue barely sits down when his gaze turns to the cheerleader team nearby.
Everyone knows that Baxter, the car racer ranked third internationally, loves to bring his cheerleading team to every race – such a narcissistic and arrogant man.
Quan Mingxuan’s lips twitch, giving him a hard smack on the back of his head, “Are you here for the race or for the spicy girls?”
This guy, always frivolous!
Han Yue glares at him, rubbing the back of his head, “Damn, what’s wrong with me looking at the spicy girls? Is it your place to hit me?”
Quan Mingxuan doesn’t engage with him, throwing him a sharp look before turning his attention to the parked racing cars nearby.
“Xiaojing, do you like car racing?” Jian Qing gives the banners held by the car fans a glance, a faint glimmer in the depths of her eyes.
Upon hearing Jian Qing’s words, Han Yue quickly swivels his head around, “Jian Qing, Jingwu has never lost a race. Axuan and I are always totally outmatched by him.”
Quan Mingxuan, “…”
Could you just speak for yourself? Why drag me into this? It’s embarrassing.
Jian Qing looks at Quan Jingwu with interest, scratching at the center of his palm, “Xiaojing, I’ve never seen it.”
Racing against him, would that be fun!
“I’ll show you another time.” With affection in his soft gaze, Quan Jingwu responded with a pampering smile.
Jian Qing raised her brow in mirth, “You promised, don’t forget.”
“Mhm.” He nodded.
Suddenly, the racetrack started buzzing even louder. The racers were making their appearances one after another.
“Daniel, Daniel!”
“Baxter, Baxter will win!”
The highlight of this race is the showdown between the two international racing giants. The fans of both sides are excited; they’re shouting until their throats become hoarse, but they’re still screaming.
Quan Mingxuan covers his ears, shaking his head. These people had incredible lung capacity!
Quan Jingwu pulls Jian Qing in front of him, covering her ears with both hands. Jian Qing finds a comfortable angle in his arms and leans against him in a languid manner.
Daniel and Baxter are both foreigners. They have similar height and build, appearing equally competitive and unwilling to let the other gain the upper hand.
“Daniel, you’ve held the runner-up position for long enough. It’s time to give it up.” Baxter fastens his gloves, his racing outfit accentuating his muscular build.
“Hah!” Daniel sneers, “Baxter, if you want the runner-up position, take it. But the prerequisite is you must have the ability to take it.”
She had expected to meet Zero here, but it turned out to be wishful thinking. If she knew it would be like this, she wouldn’t have come. What a mood killer.
Provoked by Daniel’s mocking gaze, Baxter’s face turns red. He stares at him fiercely, looking as though he’s about to start a fight at any moment.
Suddenly, thinking of something, Baxter flashes a cruel smile, “Daniel, believe it or not, today will absolutely be your last race.”
“You talk big. How come I didn’t know that I’d be quitting the racing industry?” Daniel scoffs, casually playing with his gloves.
Baxter’s eyes narrow, “We’ll see!”
Leaving those words behind, Baxter is the first to walk towards his own sports car, ready to warm up and test the car.
Looking at Baxter’s retreating figure, Daniel’s deep brown eyes flash with a hint of darkness. He felt there was more to Baxter’s words.
Putting on his gloves, Daniel strides towards his own racing car with measured steps. Along the way, he occasionally blows kisses to the numerous car fans.
“Ah, Daniel is so handsome!”
“I can’t take it anymore, I’m going to faint!”
Listening to the fanatical shouts of the car fans, Han Yue feels thankful for the VIP seat tickets. Otherwise, he figures he’d have to go to the hospital for ear check-ups after watching the race.
As Daniel relishes the cheers from the crowd, his eyes catch sight of a figure in the VIP stand, and his steps falter.
Why is she here?
Could Zero be here as well?
Thinking of this, Daniel swiftly changes his direction and quickly walks towards the VIP stand.
The fans watching this scene are momentarily taken aback, while some fans in the VIP stand excitedly cheer.
Both Han Yue and Quan Mingxuan are puzzled, it seems like Daniel is coming their way.
As expected, in the next moment, Daniel stops before them.
“Hey, Jian, long time no see!”
His voice is cheerful, speaking flawless French which sounds quite pleasant.
Han Yue and the others understand him and simultaneously turn to look at Jian Qing.
What’s going on?
Does Jian Qing know Daniel?
“Daniel, long time no see.” Jian Qing smiles gently.
Quan Mingxuan can’t help but voice his question, “Jian Qing, you know each other?”
“Mhm.” Jian Qing nods.
“Jian Qing, why didn’t you tell us?” Han Yue rubs his forehead in disbelief.
Jian Qing raises an eyebrow, “You didn’t ask me.”
“Jian, are they your friends?” Daniel glances curiously at Quan Jingwu. It’s his first time seeing someone so intimate with her. Even Zero didn’t seem so close.
Jian Qing grabs Quan Jingwu’s hand, introducing, “This is my boyfriend, and those two are my friends.”
Quan Jingwu’s purple eyes sparkle with amusement while he reciprocates her grip. His dominance isn’t hidden at all.
“Boyfriend?” Daniel’s deep voice cracks a little, his handsome face showing an incredulous expression, appearing almost comical.
“Jian, you wouldn’t be joking, right?”
Jian Qing brushes off with a light laugh, “Daniel, do you think I’m joking?”
After a pause, Daniel throws up his hands helplessly, “Okay, this news is a bit hard for me to digest for now.”
Looking around at the audience seats, he asks, “Jian, did Zero come with you?”
Jian Qing shakes her head, “No.”
At her words, a glimmer of disappointment flashes through Daniel’s face, “Well then, I guess I’ll have to race him another time. I’m going to warm up now, see you later.”
Jian Qing leisurely waves goodbye, and Daniel departs with a spring in his step.
“Jian Qing, are you and Daniel good friends?” Quan Mingxuan asks.
Jian Qing said, “A good friend’s friend. We met by chance.”
“Jian Qing, this Zero you guys mentioned, isn’t that THE Zero?” Han Yue casts an inquisitive gaze at her, looking as if he’s been hit hard.
“Which Zero?” Jian Qing feigns ignorance.
Han Yue, “The racing driver Zero who holds first place internationally.”
She laughed, “Probably so!”
Han Yue slouches, what does she mean by probably?
“Jian Qing, I’m increasingly curious about you. You know Khan, Xiya, March; even Zero, Daniel- how many people do you actually know?” Quan Mingxuan asks incredulously.
Jian Qing laughs softly, turns to look at Quan Jingwu, and jests, “Xiaojing, he said he’s curious about me. Do you think he’s secretly in love with me?”
Quan Jingwu glances at Quan Mingxuan, his purple eyes going cold. He looks intimidating enough that if Quan Mingxuan were to agree, he’d probably be thrown off a hillside today.
The smile on Quan Mingxuan’s face shatters and he quickly waves his hands, saying, “Jingwu, I swear, I hold no interest in her.”
Even if he were to secretly love someone, it wouldn’t be a fox-like woman who can match Jingwu. He doesn’t have a death wish after all.
