Chapter 258: Jiang Che’s Astonishing Driving Skills and the Terrified Jiang Yun’er
The next day, around noon.
After having lunch, Jiang Che drove his Bugatti towards Panlong Mountain.
Panlong Mountain is the highest mountain in Tianhai City, with a winding racetrack spiraling around its peak.
It is a popular spot for the rich young masters and ladies of Tianhai City. When Jiang Che arrived, Su Hongwen was already waiting there.
Su Hongwen recognized Jiang Che immediately; after all, not just anyone could drive a limited edition Bugatti Veyron.
“Cousin, you’re here!” Su Hongwen waved at Jiang Che from afar.
Jiang Che held Jiang Yun’er’s delicate hand and walked over to Su Hongwen. A crowd of handsome young men and beautiful young women had already gathered, all of them sons and daughters of various families in Tianhai City.
“Has the race not started yet?” Jiang Che glanced around and asked curiously.
“Not yet, we were waiting for you, cousin. Are you interested in racing?” Su Hongwen asked eagerly, clearly a fan of such thrilling activities.
“Do you want to try?” Jiang Che looked down at Jiang Yun’er and asked.
He himself had little interest in such things, but he came today because Jiang Yun’er wanted to experience it.
“Yes!” Jiang Yun’er nodded enthusiastically, her big eyes full of longing.
Although she was a bit scared, she had immense faith in Jiang Che’s driving skills. This guy could drive single-handedly at 160 km/h on the highway, so she thought participating in a car race should be no problem.
“Then I’ll let you experience it today.” Jiang Che patted the little girl’s head and turned to Su Hongwen.
“What are the rules of the race?”
“We all drive the same car and start at the same time. Whoever reaches the finish line first wins.” Su Hongwen pointed to several Audi cars parked nearby and smiled.
To ensure fairness, they all drove the same brand of cars.
“How about it, cousin? Interested in racing me?” Su Hongwen looked at Jiang Che with anticipation. He was quite confident in his driving skills.
He had participated in many such races in the capital, and racing was one of his few hobbies.
“Let’s do it.” Jiang Che said with a smile, leading Jiang Yun’er to one of the Audis. He opened the door and got in, with Jiang Yun’er sitting in the passenger seat.
Su Hongwen quickly got into another Audi next to Jiang Che. To keep things fair, Su Hongwen randomly picked a rich young lady from the crowd to sit in his car.
“Don’t be nervous, trust my driving skills.” Seeing Jiang Yun’er’s tightly clenched hands and tense face, Jiang Che comforted her softly, finding it a bit amusing.
The little girl had insisted on coming to race, but now that it was about to start, she was getting scared.
“Okay~” Jiang Yun’er responded softly, feeling less nervous after hearing Jiang Che’s words, which seemed to have a magical effect.
“Three, two, one!”
“Race starts!”
As the referee’s voice fell, Jiang Che hit the ignition and accelerated, the car shooting forward instantly.
Su Hongwen and Jiang Che started almost simultaneously, and since the two cars had nearly identical performance, neither had an advantage at the beginning.
Jiang Che glanced at Su Hongwen through the window, a playful smile on his lips. Then he suddenly floored the gas pedal!
100 km/h…
150 km/h…
200 km/h…
The car shot forward like a wild horse, temporarily widening the gap between him and Su Hongwen.
Seeing this, Su Hongwen refused to be outdone. He gritted his teeth and floored his own gas pedal, quickly catching up.
Jiang Yun’er, sitting in the passenger seat, was pale with fear. She clung to the handrails on either side, afraid she might be thrown out.
At the first turn, neither driver showed any sign of slowing down. Jiang Che increased the power, hitting 240 km/h and executing a perfect drift, taking the turn slightly faster than Su Hongwen.
Su Hongwen didn’t back down and followed closely, the two maintaining a narrow gap. As they raced on, Jiang Che consistently held a slight edge over Su Hongwen.
Ahead, a gentle slope appeared, likely formed by cutting through a small hill during road construction, creating a gorge-like road.
The sides of the road were steep, about seventy degrees, to prevent falling rocks. Seeing this, Jiang Che’s eyes flashed, and he accelerated again.
Speeding faster and faster, an onlooker would see only a white blur.
“Cousin Che, what are you doing?”
Seeing Jiang Che speeding towards the cliff, Jiang Yun’er was almost scared senseless. She had no idea what Jiang Che was thinking, but to her, it looked like a suicide mission.
The cliff was about thirty meters from the opposite slope, a distance a car couldn’t normally cross.
Jiang Che ignored Jiang Yun’er’s cries and continued as he pleased.
The speed instantly soared to 260 km/h!
Jiang Yun’er closed her eyes in despair, hoping for a miracle.
“Holy crap, what is Young Master Jiang doing?” The crowd watching was stunned by Jiang Che’s crazy move, thinking it was suicidal.
Before they could react, Jiang Che’s Audi flew off the cliff.
With the sound of tires screeching against the ground, Jiang Che’s car safely landed and drove slowly towards the finish line.
The scene fell silent, the atmosphere eerily quiet.
No one expected such a twist!
Just when everyone thought Jiang Che was doomed, he performed an astonishing mid-air maneuver, turning the situation on its head.
