Chapter 549: Chapter 547: So It Was Him Who Borrowed It

Chapter Five Hundred and Forty-Seven

Although Situ Qingfeng had previously mentioned one of their strongholds to him, Xiao Yi was certain that they must have changed locations. Knowing that Situ Qingfeng had discovered that stronghold, they naturally wouldn’t just sit there and wait for doom.

While deep in thought, the speed of the car didn’t slow down at all.

The red Maserati, like a streak of red lightning, traced perfect, dazzling lines on the highway through the night, continuously surpassing one vehicle after another that was also speeding along the highway.

"Damn, am I seeing things, or is that really a Maserati?"

On the highway, a handsome young man in a similarly fast-moving, modified silver-white Mitsubishi was initially driving leisurely. He was enjoying the thrill of overtaking other cars when he suddenly saw a flash of red zip by him. His expression froze, thinking he was seeing things.

It took him a moment to regain his composure, his eyes wide with disbelief as he stared at the red car now pulling away in the distance.

As he spoke, he fiercely pressed down on the accelerator. The already fast car instantly sped up even more, as if transforming into an arrow shot off its bow, rapidly pursuing the red streak ahead.

"Damn, it really is a Maserati!"

Finally, after chasing for a while, the silver-white car closed the gap and got a clear view of the car ahead. His eyes immediately lit up with fervor.

To put it out there, his car was also quite exceptional, and with the cost of modifications, it was worth several million—a true love of his. However, compared to the Maserati in front, it was obviously not of the same class.

A Maserati like this was exactly what he had been dreaming of.

With curiosity and excitement driving him, he once again pressed the throttle, gradually increasing his speed as he drew closer to the car.

"Damn, it’s actually a limited edition!"

As he drew closer to the red Maserati, his eyes, unblinking, started making out the car’s shape and appearance much more clearly. The moment he fully grasped the car’s design and its looks, he slapped his steering wheel hard, his eyes becoming even more frenzied.

"I can’t believe I’m seeing a limited edition Maserati! Damn."

The young man’s face showed a hint of excitement. He couldn’t help but swear, "I haven’t seen a Maserati on this road for so many years! Let alone a limited edition one!"

Could it be Han? No, he’s not really into cars. Young Master Zhao? That doesn’t seem right either, that guy, despite all his talk, seems like he hasn’t managed to afford it yet. His darling girl has always refused to help him out with buying a car.

The young man’s face showed an expression of curiosity, guessing non-stop in his mind about who the driver could be. While speeding up, his eyes persistently stared ahead.

He was simply too curious. As a car enthusiast, he was quite familiar with G City’s car scene, but he couldn’t figure out who the driver might be. He knew very well that even in a so-called international metropolis like G City, a Maserati like this, especially a limited edition, was a rare sight.

Generally speaking, he felt that anyone who could afford this car shouldn’t be a stranger to him.

"Crack!"

However, when he clearly saw the person driving, his expression froze, and his foot almost slammed the accelerator to the floor, nearly crashing directly into the Maserati ahead.

In a hurried response, he quickly and sharply eased off the accelerator and simultaneously hit the brakes.

And in that moment of braking, his forehead involuntarily slammed forward, and a car behind almost crashed into him. Only with his quick emergency reaction and familiarity with the car’s performance did he manage to stabilize it, pulling into a lane and maintaining a steady speed.

His complexion went pale all of a sudden, looking incredibly grim!

He had indeed seen this face before!

Moreover, this was a face he was very familiar with, because many times, this face had appeared in his dreams—in nightmares that woke him up at midnight!

This person was actually that bumpkin, Xiao Yi!

How could it be him?

Li Ziming could hardly focus on the shock of that moment anymore; his mind just buzzed, filled with disbelief.

All along, he had thought Xiao Yi was just a bumpkin, albeit a formidable one. But still, just a formidable bumpkin!

This was also the reason he had secretly harbored a desire for revenge against Xiao Yi, planning to teach Xiao Yi a harsh lesson once he was done with his current businesses.

The repeated bouts of agitation from that bumpkin had deeply planted seeds of hatred in his mind!

But now... he discovered that this bumpkin was actually driving a limited edition Maserati!

How was that possible?

He didn’t look like someone who could afford a Maserati at all!

Ah... right...

Suddenly, a memory flashed through Li Ziming’s mind—he had once encountered Xiao Yi at Jingyue Pavilion while dining, and there he had tried to mock and humiliate him, but Chen Jianguo had stood up for him...

This car belonged to Chen Jianguo!

He was borrowing Chen Jianguo’s car!

As he remembered this incident, Li Ziming also recalled that last year Chen Jianguo had bought a Maserati, an event that had been much talked about in their circle and had celebrated Chen Jianguo’s generosity!

Understanding all this, a sigh of relief escaped Li Ziming’s mind.
