Invincible Young Master in the City
Chapter 426 - 426 422 Taking Aunt Rong on a Speed Drive

426: Chapter 422: Taking Aunt Rong on a Speed Drive 426: Chapter 422: Taking Aunt Rong on a Speed Drive Just after six, Ye Fan arrived early on the second floor dining hall of the Yunhua Hotel, sitting at table number 23, where Tantai Wanrong had set him up on blind dates three times before.

Approaching six-thirty, Ye Fan rested his hand on the table, his fingers lightly tapping the surface as he pondered how to approach the subject of Tantai Wanrong’s marriage when they met, when suddenly he felt a stir around him and everyone turned their heads toward the entrance of the hall.

Ye Fan looked up and saw Tantai Wanrong, whom he hadn’t seen for over a month, walking towards him with an elegant and noble grace, under the ardent gaze of the crowd.

Ye Fan couldn’t help but watch Tantai Wanrong intently.

He noticed her noble and elegant demeanor, tall and plump figure, creamy white skin, and her curly hair that fell on her fragrant shoulders.

She carried a white handbag and was wearing a sharp black ladies’ blazer over a white shirt, paired with a black knee-length skirt.

Her slender legs were wrapped in flesh-colored stockings, and she wore a pair of red high heels.

As Ye Fan looked at her, Tantai Wanrong also cast her gaze towards him, her stunning face breaking into a graceful and enchanting smile, brightening the whole hall.

All eyes in the hall were glued to her.

As Tantai Wanrong approached, Ye Fan smiled and stood up as a gesture of welcome.

“Auntie Wanrong,” Ye Fan called out.

“Hmm,” Tantai Wanrong replied with an elegant nod, “Have you been waiting long?”

She said, gracefully taking a seat on the sofa and placing her handbag next to her.

Ye Fan also sat back down on the opposite sofa, pressed the bell to call the waiter, and then ordered.

After the waiter left, Tantai Wanrong tenderly surveyed Ye Fan’s face and said, “Ah, you’ve gotten darker and thinner.

It seems you’ve had a tough time since leaving Hua Hai City?”

“Heh, it was alright, nothing too difficult,” Ye Fan responded.

The two chatted casually with mutual concern, and then the meal was served.

Ye Fan didn’t rush to ask about Tantai Wanrong’s upcoming marriage, and the two of them had a pleasant conversation while eating.

All through the meal, Ye Fan never brought up the topic of marriage, and Tantai Wanrong also did not mention it.

After they finished eating and paid the bill, just as they were about to leave, Tantai Wanrong asked Ye Fan with a smile, “What shall we do next?”

“I remember the last time you arranged a blind date for me with Zhou Zhiqian, you said you wanted to see my driving skills,” Ye Fan’s gaze rested on Tantai Wanrong’s narrow and sexy eye corners, which always unintentionally revealed a hint of seductiveness when she smiled, directly scratching at one’s heart.

“Oh, it seems I did say that,” Tantai Wanrong replied with a light chuckle of surprise, “you actually remembered.

Are you suggesting we go racing?”

Ye Fan smiled and said, “If you think it’s dangerous, we don’t have to go.”

“Pfft—” Tantai Wanrong couldn’t help laughing, her flirtatious eyes teasingly looking at Ye Fan, “Ah, I see you’re using reverse psychology on me.

Fine, I’ll indulge in some madness with you just this once.”

After leaving the restaurant and walking to the parking lot, Tantai Wanrong followed Ye Fan to a brand new BMW Z4.

“Is this your new car?” Tantai Wanrong inquired.

Ye Fan shook his head slightly, “No, it’s borrowed from a friend.”

This car belonged to Lu Chengqiang.

Since the Heroic Bar had reopened and was making a fortune, Lu Chengqiang had some money and had thus bought this BMW sports car worth eight or nine hundred thousand.

The reason he borrowed Lu Chengqiang’s car was that his modified Volkswagen sedan was parked in front of Li Zhaojun’s villa, and although Tantai Wanrong’s car was decent, its license plate number was sensitive and could not be driven for racing.

Once they got in the car and drove out of the Yunhua Hotel and onto the motorway, Tantai Wanrong asked, “Where are we going to play?”

“Longwan Mountain,” Ye Fan answered.

Tantai Wanrong voiced her concern, “Isn’t it too dangerous?”

Of course, she was familiar with Longwan Mountain.

She used to get upset at Qin Mengyao for going there to race frequently.

“Alright,” Ye Fan said.

Tantai Wanrong didn’t object; she knew Ye Fan was steady and reliable in his actions.

Since he dared to take her to Longwan Mountain, he must be very confident.

On the road to Longwan Mountain, Ye Fan drove leisurely, chatting with Tantai Wanrong.

He was in no hurry to reach the destination.

After more than an hour, they finally arrived at Longwan Mountain.

It was now nearly nine o’clock in the evening, the craziest time for the Hua Hai racing gangs.

Before officially entering the racing section of Longwan Mountain, a large number of racers and cars had gathered, shouting excitedly and frantically.

When Ye Fan turned his head to remind Tantai Wanrong to put on her large sunglasses, she had already donned huge black glasses, covering most of her beautiful face, unrecognizable to those who weren’t acquainted with her.

Moreover, no one would expect the beautiful deputy mayor of Hua Hai City to come to a holy place for drag racing in Longwan Mountain.

As they drove past, Ye Fan noticed many racers turning their heads to look over, uttering excited calls and whistles.

Ye Fan frowned slightly; he didn’t think his BMW Z4 would draw so much attention from the racers.

It must have been Lu Chengqiang racing this car here more than once.

With the crowd ahead, Ye Fan slowed down, driving slowly through the path flanked by racers.

When they were still some distance away from the racing section, a young man in his early twenties suddenly jumped out in front of the car and started shouting something at them.

The young man sported a buzz cut, was handsome, and dressed in shiny international brands, probably a rich second-generation.

Since Ye Fan had kept the car windows closed and the outside noise was too loud and chaotic, he couldn’t hear what the buzz-cut young man was yelling.

Ye Fan sounded the horn vigorously, but the young man with the buzz cut didn’t move aside at all; instead, he shouted more aggressively at the car and made various provocative gestures.

Additionally, five or six young men and women jumped out to block the car, also making various provocative gestures.

“What’s going on?” Tantai Wanrong turned to ask Ye Fan, as she was unfamiliar with drag racing venues.

“It’s nothing,” Ye Fan said calmly.

“Perhaps a friend of mine who owns this car has some conflict with them.

I’ll go down and negotiate.

Stay in the car and don’t get out.”

“Don’t worry, I understand,” Tantai Wanrong said calmly.

Although it was her first time at such a complex event, it wasn’t enough to make her lose her composure.

Ye Fan got out of the car, closed the door, walked up, and called out, “Why are you blocking my car?”

The buzz-cut young man came up to him, sized up Ye Fan, and said, “You’re not Lu Chengqiang!

Where is he?

Don’t tell me he’s chickened out and doesn’t dare to show up?!”

A few young men and women behind the buzz-cut started to whistle, echo the young man, or show disdain for Lu Chengqiang.

“I’m his friend.

What beef do you have with him?” Ye Fan asked in a placid voice.

Immediately, a girl with exaggerated smoky makeup behind the buzz-cut young man shouted out, “That scumbag Lu Chengqiang even dared to challenge Brother Yu, saying he’d race him tonight for fifty thousand…”

“That’s true?” Ye Fan asked Brother Yu, that is the buzz-cut young man.

Brother Yu lifted his face and snorted, “Indeed.

But since he’s chickened out and doesn’t dare to come, forget it.

Every time I see him from now on, I’ll disgrace him!”

Ye Fan’s thoughts raced, and he quickly understood: Lu Chengqiang had a bet with Brother Yu to race for fifty thousand tonight, but Lu Chengqiang had lent his car to him that afternoon without a second word.

Without a good car and not knowing many friends in Hua Hai City, Lu Chengqiang must have broken the appointment.

“I’m his good friend.

He couldn’t come because he lent me the car,” Ye Fan told Brother Yu.

“However, tonight I can race in his place.”

“You?” Brother Yu and the men and women behind him sized Ye Fan up, considering him a stranger.

The truth was, although Ye Fan had easily broken the Longwan Mountain racing record last time, defeating Racing King Qin Gang, becoming the new Racing King, he had only appeared once, and it had been several months since then, with almost no one remembering what he looked like anymore.

“Fifty thousand?” Brother Yu said.

Ye Fan nodded once.

Brother Yu called out, “Alright, if you want to bet, that’s fine by me!

I never mind people who come to give away money.”
