Damn, How could my family be so wealthy?

Chapter 237: Chapter 236: Play a Little Game

After chatting with Grandpa for a while, Su Mu went back to his room to grab his phone and get ready for the gym.

This time, Su Mu still chose his beloved black Ferrari 812.

"Vroom..."

The arrogant roar of the engine echoed from the garage to the gate of the castle and far beyond.

With his Champion Driving Skill, Su Mu found no challenge driving on such spacious roads.

He was quite comfortable, listening to music while steering the wheel with one hand.

Su Mu’s speed was not fast, but definitely not slow either.

If he were driving that speed in the center of Huadong City, the traffic police would surely come up to check on him.

"You are the wind that I can’t touch, the dream from which I can’t wake up."

"The heaven I cannot find, the pain that can’t be cured."

"The cigarette that can’t be lighted, the hand that can’t be let go."

"The someone I can’t forget, you are the wind that I cannot seek."

...

The radio was playing "The Dream from Which I Can’t Wake Up" and Su Mu, feeling good, hummed along.

On the mountain road, Su Mu’s car was the only one rapidly driving forward.

A bit bored, he glanced at the rearview mirror.

Su Mu had only taken an unintentional peek and did not expect to see a familiar red Ferrari 599 catching up from behind.

Seeing the speed of the red Ferrari, Su Mu knew that its owner wanted to catch up with him.

He was very familiar with this red Ferrari 599.

Wasn’t it just yesterday that he had spent the afternoon with its owner?

The red Ferrari 599 that was catching up belonged to He Qiya.

He Qiya driving out early in the morning was not, in fact, due to an arrangement with Su Mu as Huang Yuqin had thought.

After driving out, He Qiya had been waiting at that familiar intersection.

Actually, He Qiya wasn’t sure whether impulsively waiting here was the right thing to do.

Normally, He Qiya would only encounter Su Mu in the afternoon.

In her heart, He Qiya wasn’t sure if Su Mu would appear in the morning.

Thinking that she would only be overthinking at home, He Qiya felt it was more reassuring to wait here.

Bored, He Qiya felt too embarrassed to text Su Mu to ask if he would be coming out in the morning.

He Qiya was unsure if Su Mu would respond to her message if she sent it.

If ignored by Su Mu again, He Qiya wouldn’t have the courage to face him.

Thus, He Qiya used the foolish method of waiting by the tree stump, standing at the intersection leading out from her villa.

He Qiya knew that if Su Mu were to leave the house, this road was a must-pass for him.

He Qiya felt that her chances were higher waiting here.

From the moment the sun had just risen to when the sunlight became very harsh.

He Qiya had not seen the familiar car she was waiting for.

Reluctant to leave just like that, He Qiya bit the bullet and waited it out.

Just as He Qiya was about to give up hope, a black Ferrari 812 quickly passed the intersection.

"Su Mu!"

Because she was too excited, He Qiya blurted out his name.

Unfortunately, the black Ferrari was very fast.

In the blink of an eye, it passed the intersection.

If He Qiya were not so familiar with Su Mu’s car,

it would indeed be difficult to recognize what vehicle had passed by in such a short time.

Of course, He Qiya’s cry of "Su Mu" couldn’t be heard by Su Mu himself.

It’s not just that Su Mu’s car had already passed by.

Even if Su Mu were driving slowly, separated by the car window glass, it would still be impossible for Su Mu to hear He Qiya’s call.

When He Qiya pulled over to the side of the road, her car’s engine had not been turned off.

He Qiya was fully prepared, waiting for Su Mu to appear before her eyes at any moment.

She knew that, with Su Mu’s driving skills, even if she didn’t stall the engine, she might not be able to catch up to Su Mu’s car.

Not to mention if He Qiya’s car had stalled and she had to restart the engine from scratch.

As He Qiya uttered "Su Mu," her hands and feet didn’t stop moving.

She released the handbrake, stepped on the gas pedal, and turned the steering wheel to the left.

The red Ferrari pulled out of the intersection and onto the mountain road.

Fortunately, Su Mu’s car wasn’t going too fast today; He Qiya could still catch up.

Seeing her car getting closer to Su Mu’s black Ferrari, He Qiya’s heart began to flutter with excitement.

She was finally catching up to Su Mu!

If she could, He Qiya felt like setting off fireworks to celebrate.

"Why?"

He Qiya, who had a smile on her face, suddenly stiffened and quietly asked herself.

It turned out that Su Mu had seen He Qiya’s car in the rearview mirror.

Su Mu hadn’t considered that He Qiya was waiting for him on purpose.

After all, the two hadn’t had a driving practice session that morning, had they?

Su Mu thought that it must have been a coincidence that He Qiya was leaving the house at the same time.

Su Mu didn’t immediately speed up when he first saw He Qiya’s car.

After waiting for the red Ferrari to catch up a bit, right when the red was about to catch up with the black Ferrari,

Su Mu suddenly floored the gas pedal.

The black Ferrari shot forward like an arrow released from its bow.

No other meaning intended; Su Mu simply thought that since they had crossed paths and hadn’t practiced driving together in a while,

they might as well play a little game.

Su Mu’s thoughtless action, in He Qiya’s eyes, seemed full of significance.

Su Mu hadn’t replied to her message last night.

Now, Su Mu sped up and widened the distance between them as soon as he saw her.

He Qiya started to panic inside.

Could it be that Su Mu was really displeased with her?

Otherwise, why would Su Mu’s behavior change so drastically?

No matter how hard she racked her brain, He Qiya couldn’t understand the sudden change in Su Mu.

She could only step on the gas, desperate to catch up with Su Mu and get some clarity.

Sadly, when faced with Su Mu’s Champion Driving Skill, even her utmost effort was not enough to keep up.

"Su Mu, why, why?" He Qiya asked over and over in the red Ferrari 599, fully aware that Su Mu couldn’t hear her.

After covering some distance, Su Mu felt it was enough and slowed down.

He waited for the red Ferrari that had been chasing him to catch up.

He Qiya noticed Su Mu had slowed down and felt a mix of sadness and joy.

She immediately chased after him.

There were three main roads down the mountain, and there were no other cars at this time.

Su Mu didn’t need to make way on purpose; after He Qiya’s red Ferrari caught up, it kept pace with the black Ferrari effortlessly.

With great tacit understanding, Su Mu and He Qiya exchanged a look.

Su Mu curved the corners of his mouth, an air of nonchalance.

Seeing Su Mu’s behavior, He Qiya’s anxious heart finally settled.

It turned out that Su Mu wasn’t displeased with her and didn’t want to avoid her.

Now, He Qiya realized that Su Mu’s sudden acceleration was just for a driving practice session.

It seemed like something she and Su Mu used to do often, wasn’t it?
