Chapter 200 - 200 192 189 Modified Car

200: Chapter 192 Chapter 189: Modified Car 200: Chapter 192 Chapter 189: Modified Car When only some broth was left in his bowl of noodles, Ye Chen’s phone rang.

At first, he thought it was Feng Zhi Xiao calling, but as soon as he answered, he learned it was Young Master Wei.

“Ye Chen, your car’s been modified and is ready for you to pick up!

Come on over now!” Through the phone, came the slightly excited voice of Young Master Wei.

It seemed that Young Master Wei was quite satisfied with the car he had modified.

Ye Chen nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll come over now!”

“Do you…

do you have something on?” Zhang Yantong asked somewhat reluctantly.

After all, the two had just met and were about to part ways again.

“Yeah, my car was feeling sick, so I had someone fix it!” Ye Chen chuckled and said, “I’m about to go pick it up.

Do you want to come?”

“Can I…

can I really go?” Zhang Yantong was taken aback.

“Of course, you can!” Ye Chen laughed, saying, “I also made some little tweaks; it just so happens we can test drive it tonight.”

“Great, I’m coming too!” Zhang Yantong was as excited as a child who had just received a new toy.

Her adorable expression made Ye Chen unable to resist pinching her cheek, and Zhang Yantong even blushed.

Previously, she could face Ye Chen with a serious demeanor, but now, upon seeing Ye Chen, she couldn’t help but feel her heart flutter.

After the two went downstairs, they immediately hailed a taxi and headed towards Xiangming Mountain.

On the mountain’s platform, Young Master Wei and a group of little brothers had already dragged Ye Chen’s car out.

On the platform of the mountain, Ye Chen’s little Oto was placed in the middle, covered by a red silk cloth.

Racers always like to hold unveiling ceremonies.

It was a mark of respect for the race car and for the racing project.

The taxi arrived at the platform, and the two got off.

Young Master Wei and the others immediately came to greet them.

“Young Master Wei, I owe you one for this time!” said Ye Chen with a beaming smile, as he reached into his pocket, pulling out a box of Red Double Happiness, and handed one over.

Young Master Wei was taken aback, then chuckled, “Smoke mine!”

He handed Ye Chen a cigar, and without a trace of embarrassment, Ye Chen accepted it naturally.

Zhang Yantong came over and linked arms with Ye Chen.

This surprised Young Master Wei, who curiously looked at Zhang Yantong and laughingly said, “Ye Chen, aren’t you going to introduce us?”

“Oh, this is Captain Zhang Yantong from the Jianghuai City Police Department’s Criminal Police Team!” Ye Chen laughed.

There was a stir in the crowd, and several guys clearly stepped back a few paces; both Ye Chen and Zhang Yantong immediately understood that these people must have cases hanging over them; otherwise, why would they be frightened?

Young Master Wei was taken aback but then laughed heartily, “I was wondering why she looked so familiar, turns out it’s Captain Zhang, what an honor, what an honor!”

“I’m not a police officer when I’m not in uniform,” Zhang Yantong said with a faint smile, her radiant beauty could eclipse the moon.

Everyone from Young Master Wei’s group was taken aback.

Although Zhang Yantong’s appearance might not compare with Li Ruo’s, she possessed an aura that Li Ruo lacked, namely a naturally distinguished and inborn police temperament.

Giving a thumbs-up to Ye Chen, Young Master Wei thought to himself, “Brother, I’m truly impressed.”

“Haha, Young Master Wei, let’s just get to the test drive,” Ye Chen said with a wide grin.

“Let’s go, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!” As soon as cars were mentioned, Young Master Wei got a lot more excited.

He led the way through the crowd towards the center of the field.

The air at Xiangming Mountain at night was exceptionally fresh.

In the center of the platform, a huge xenon light shone a snowy white.

Young Master Wei walked up to the Oto, which was covered with a red silk cloth, and there was a red silk ball tied at the front of the car.

“This is…?” Ye Chen was puzzled.

“Hehe, this is your car!” Young Master Wei grinned and said, “I spent several days getting this done.

Lift the cover and see if you’re satisfied!”

Ye Chen walked over, glanced at Zhang Yantong, and said, “Help me with it!”

“Sure!” Zhang Yantong was joyful inside, hurried over, and the two grabbed a corner each, then pulled hard, the red silk cloth waving like a red wave.

The black and white Oto immediately appeared before Ye Chen, completely transformed by Young Master Wei’s modifications.

Although the silhouette was the same as before, this Oto was now strikingly different from its previous self, with new wheels, Michelin-racing tires, and even the windows, glass, and the trunk had been altered.

The car before him seemed as though it had been upgraded from an Oto to an Audi.

The cool black spread over the roof and engine hood, while the body of the car was white; this combination was super cool.

On its flank, the initials D were impressively displayed.

Ye Chen found the sight thrilling, and an eager Young Master Wei said, “Get in and check it out!”

Ye Chen nodded immediately and stepped into the driver’s cabin.

Inside the driver’s cabin, the dashboard was unchanged, but the gear shift had been replaced, the interior decoration remained the same, and the key ignition was now a push-button start, which was much more convenient.

The pedals were the same, only the steering wheel had completely changed, featuring many new buttons.

“Hehe, the car has been reborn,” Young Master Wei said, coming closer, and then added, “Let me tell you the truth, the performance of this car is not much different from that of a Ferrari 599.

While other components may limit the engine’s capability, they also protect the engine to a large extent.

So, how about giving it a try?”

“Okay, let’s take a lap and see!” Ye Chen grinned and shouted to Zhang Yantong, “Get in the car!”

Zhang Yantong had been a cop for over a year, having played out many a cops-and-robbers chase, but she was quite unfamiliar with real racing.

After listening to Young Master Wei’s series of introductions, she was a bit confused.

However, when she saw Young Master Wei’s little brothers driving out several sports cars, she immediately understood—it was a car race.

Zhang Yantong hopped into the passenger seat, excitedly saying, “So this is your ‘piece of junk’ car?”

“It’s not junk anymore!” Ye Chen laughed heartily.

Young Master Wei sped out in a Ferrari, pulling up alongside Ye Chen.

Through the glass, the two greeted each other with a nod.

Then, a little brother carrying a flag immediately stepped forward and waved the chess piece.

As the green flag swung down, a number of cars burst forth simultaneously.

“Ha!

Thunder God coming through!” Ye Chen slammed his foot down on the accelerator, but the car stayed put.

Ye Chen fiddled around for quite a while, but to no avail—the car still wouldn’t move and remained stationary on the sidelines.

Pfft…

Zhang Yantong covered her mouth to stifle her laughter.

Ye Chen immediately realized, “Shit,” the car hadn’t even been started.

Helplessly, he hastily pressed the ignition button.

Immediately, the Oto’s engine began to shake mightily.

Thankfully, all the important components had been changed; otherwise, the original parts would have definitely given out.

Ye Chen stomped down hard on the accelerator, and the car shot out like a bullet.

It accelerated so quickly that not even Ye Chen could believe it.

A Ferrari 599 could go from zero to a hundred kilometers per hour within five seconds.

This Oto could definitely hit ninety or a hundred kilometers per hour within the same time, almost matching the 599’s pace.

The engine roared with the sound of compressed gasoline, nearly boiling Ye Chen’s blood with excitement.

This was almost identical to the sound of a Formula One car’s engine.

One could imagine how powerful it must be; it was only the limitations of its parts that held it back.

Otherwise, it could have definitely surpassed the Ferrari 599.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen caught up to Young Master Wei and the others.

Their speed was so astonishing that even they were shocked.

After their modifications, they had only tested the car’s capabilities briefly.

They hadn’t expected it to be able to keep up, let alone catch up with their own Ferrari 458.

Though the 458 was not quite on par with the 599, it was still a formidable machine.

Anyone who saw this would have dropped their jaw in disbelief; a little Oto keeping up with a Ferrari was simply astonishing.

Thanks to his exquisite driving skills, Ye Chen managed to squeak into second place.

After all, the car was somewhat underpowered, and parts tend to overheat when pushed to high speeds for too long.

Additionally, Ye Chen’s unfamiliarity with the car’s performance, especially forgetting to start it initially, contributed to the outcome.

Zhang Yantong couldn’t stop laughing at him, and even years later, she would never pass up a chance to tease Ye Chen mercilessly about this incident.

After saying goodbye to Young Master Wei, Ye Chen drove down the mountain.

As they passed by a creek, Zhang Yantong was captivated by the scene and immediately exclaimed, “Stop the car, stop the car!”

Ye Chen slammed on the brakes, and seeing Zhang Yantong excitedly running down to the water, he couldn’t understand why women always seemed to like such places.

Li Ruo had enjoyed playing in the water here before, and now it was Zhang Yantong’s turn.

“The water’s so cool and refreshing!” Zhang Yantong stood in the midst of the creek, wearing a short skirt and looking ecstatic.

She bent over to pick up a pebble from the water, then held it up against the moon in the sky, glowing like a luminous piece of jade.

Excitedly, she said, “Ye Chen, does this look like a Luminous Pearl to you?”

“It does.

You should take them all back; who knows, you might get rich!” Ye Chen laughed.

“Hmph!” Zhang Yantong pouted, clearly dissatisfied, as she tossed the pebble back into the water and continued picking up others, undeterred.

Ye Chen sat down on the grass, which was already withering in the autumn.

Watching Zhang Yantong play in the creek was a different kind of scenery altogether.

It was just like that saying: “You stand on the bridge to look at the scenery, and those watching the scenery are looking at you from above.”

Perhaps, it meant something like that.

“Ye Chen!” Zhang Yantong stood in the water, suddenly looking at Ye Chen earnestly, “Do you like me?”

“I do!” Ye Chen nodded and said, “You’re so beautiful, and you have a dad who’s a high-ranking official; I believe lots of men like you.”

“Hmph!” Zhang Yantong huffed, “I’m not talking about that kind of ‘like.'”

“What kind of ‘like’ are you talking about?” Ye Chen was taken aback.

“You know what I mean!

Don’t play dumb!” Zhang Yantong huffed.
