"Mr. Xu, step on the gas, and listen to my voice for the handbrake..."
Xu Lei, who was already panicking and preparing for a car crash, suddenly heard Ye Qiu's words and froze, momentarily not reacting.
"Quickly, pull the handbrake..."
Ye Qiu's shout startled her, and she immediately snapped back to reality, watching Ye Qiu manipulate the steering wheel. She quickly reached out to pull the handbrake.
As soon as Xu Lei pulled the handbrake, the veins on Ye Qiu's arms bulged as he fiercely turned the steering wheel.
Xu Lei's BMW 3X rear tires spun in place, while the front wheels turned aside. At the same time, a large truck was about to collide head-on with it. It appeared that a crash was imminent, but then a miracle happened.
Some timid bystanders on the roadside screamed and closed their eyes, while the more daring ones took out their phones to record, hoping to gain some clicks online.
The truck driver also saw the BMW 3X about to be crushed by his truck, and he was dumbfounded, knowing that his truck wouldn't suffer much damage, but the BMW 3X would be done for.
Moreover, he saw there were two people inside the BMW, meaning two lives, which left him stunned.
However, just when everyone thought a crash was inevitable, the BMW 3X's rear tires suddenly screeched, as its front tires turned sharply to the side. Then, accompanied by a puff of thick smoke from the rear tires, the BMW 3X shot forward just as the truck was about to hit it.
Bang.
Though the BMW 3X escaped the disaster at the last moment, its rear was still hit by the truck, causing the car to spin unstably in place, now facing a large tree ahead.
"Ah..."
Before the onlookers could marvel at the BMW 3X driver's skills, they saw the car about to hit a tree and began to scream.
Inside, Xu Lei had just breathed a sigh of relief but froze at the sight of the tree ahead.
"Step on the gas, listen to my instructions, and barely brake!"
Right then, Ye Qiu's voice came to her ears, which calmed her frantic heart. Watching Ye Qiu's serious side profile as he concentrated on maneuvering the steering wheel, Xu Lei opened her mouth but decided to follow his instructions.
"Brake..."
As the BMW 3X was about to crash into the tree, Ye Qiu shouted, and Xu Lei quickly braked.
The BMW 3X tires screeched on the ground, turning aside.
The screech echoed along the street, leaving the onlookers agape.
The BMW 3X that narrowly escaped death twice caused everyone to swallow hard, feeling an immeasurable amount of awe.
Some people who captured the scene on their phones excitedly saved the video, thinking that such a phenomenal clip would surely get high hits online.
"Whoa, who is this guy? His driving skills must be those of a professional driver, right?"
"Yeah, but all the pro drivers in H City have their own cars. Who is this? Haven't heard of him. Judging by these skills, he must be at least a B-level driver. Could it be Situ Yang?"
"Situ Yang? No way, he came back to H City?..."
Around them, those familiar with H City's racing circles buzzed, wondering about the BMW 3X owner. But just when they wanted to see this impressive driver, the BMW 3X spun around and sped away down a side street.
Seeing the BMW 3X vanish, those wishing to meet the remarkable driver felt a bit disappointed, but knowing the pro driver tournament was coming up in H City, they wondered how this impressive guy would perform if he participated today.
...
Screech...
The BMW 3X came to a halt, and inside, Ye Qiu frowned at the parked, empty BMW I8 ahead.
"Luo Bing has already been taken away by them."
Ye Qiu said to Xu Lei beside him.
Xu Lei nodded numbly, still recovering from what occurred moments ago.
"Ms. Xu, let me drive now!"
Just as Xu Lei was dazed, Ye Qiu's words reached her ears, making her freeze. "Can you manage?"
Before finishing the sentence, recalling Ye Qiu's driving skills and calmness amid danger, she said no more.
Xu Lei nodded, got out of the car, and swapped seats with Ye Qiu.
Sitting in the front passenger seat, Xu Lei watched Ye Qiu, who started the car, filled with curiosity.
"I'll explain later; rescuing Luo Bing is the priority now..."
Ye Qiu said to Xu Lei, then gripped the steering wheel, glancing ahead at the dashboard's bouncing needle as he pressed the gas.
Listening to the engine roar, though lacking the performance of his once-modified car, Ye Qiu felt quite pleased.
"Ms. Xu's car is well-maintained."
Hearing Ye Qiu discern from sound alone, Xu Lei was amazed: "Indeed, this car is often maintained."
"Hmm."
Ye Qiu nodded, tightly holding the steering wheel, took a deep breath, and gradually pressed harder on the gas, making the BMW 3X, under his command, fly forward like an eagle breaking free of a cage...
...
On the bustling streets, during the rush hour, there were many vehicles coming and going. Even though the passing cars were moving at a slower speed, they were still driving cautiously, afraid of hitting the vehicles beside them.
In some busy areas, there was even a traffic jam at this moment.
But just at this time, a blue BMW 3X appeared, its engine roaring like an enraged dragon, and the car was weaving skillfully through the crowded traffic like a nimble loach.
Some moments that seemed destined for a collision were miraculously avoided by this BMW 3X with seemingly impossible maneuvers.
And during some curves, it even displayed drifting skills that one would only expect to see in movies, leaving people on the street wide-eyed in amazement.
Even those drivers who were nearly hit by the BMW 3X and almost crashed themselves, watching the BMW 3X speeding away, held no resentment, only admiration for the incredible driving skills they witnessed.
However, while they admired, the traffic patrol officers on the street did not share that sentiment. After reporting to headquarters, they rushed to chase down this BMW 3X that disregarded traffic rules and nearly caused several accidents.
"Ye Qiu, the police are coming after us!"
Just having maneuvered between two vehicles with a high-difficulty move, Xu Lei, whose racing heart hadn't yet calmed, heard the piercing police sirens from behind and said to Ye Qiu with panic in her voice.
Hearing Xu Lei's words, Ye Qiu glanced in the rearview mirror to see two police cars with flashing sirens attempting to catch up. He smiled faintly: "Don't worry, Miss Xu, we'll be fine. They're a bit off if they think they can catch me…"
Hearing Ye Qiu's words and seeing his calm demeanor, Xu Lei suddenly felt reassured and nodded, responding softly with a "hmm."
At this moment, she became more curious about her student, Ye Qiu, whose driving skills seemed so exceptional. Could he really be the fool they say he is?
Recalling the mocking words of classmates about Ye Qiu, Xu Lei smiled and shook her head.
"BMW 3X in front, you've violated the law, please pull over immediately for inspection."
"BMW 3X in front, you've violated the law, please pull over immediately for inspection…"
Listening to the police's voice from behind and watching the police cars getting closer, Ye Qiu smiled slightly and then said to Xu Lei: "Miss, hold on tight…"
With that, Ye Qiu saw an upcoming corner and three oncoming vehicles, his mouth curled slightly, and he suddenly stomped on the gas pedal.
Vroom.
The engine of the BMW 3X roared, and the entire car surged forward quickly.
The speedometer instantly soared to 200 mph and was still rapidly increasing.
In the city, with streets so crowded with vehicles, driving at 100 mph would be considered fast, yet Ye Qiu at this moment had actually accelerated to 200 mph.
This immediately stunned the surrounding vehicles, causing them to dodge Ye Qiu's car one after another. Meanwhile, the three large cargo trucks that Ye Qiu had locked onto earlier also saw the flying BMW 3X, and the drivers were dumbfounded, all slamming on their brakes.
But just as they were about to brake, Ye Qiu's car reached them and then skillfully navigated through the gap between the two trucks.
The truck drivers were dumbfounded as the two truck fronts collided. The third truck, just coming into view, saw the two truck fronts smashed together and braked urgently, but it was too late and it crashed into them.
As the three trucks collided, they instantly formed a solid wall at the alley entrance.
The police cars following closely behind stopped in front of the trucks, looking at the blocked road ahead, the police were furious.
However, remembering the scene of Ye Qiu maneuvering between the two large trucks, they looked at their own cars and then at the gap, all filled with shock.
...
"Ding, completed high-difficulty challenge, gained 3000 experience points."
"Ding, successfully evaded police pursuit, gained 500 experience points due to low pursuit intensity."
After successfully evading the police, the system's voice rang in Ye Qiu's mind, making him pause.
"Fle, that was also considered a high-difficulty challenge, and just like that, I gained so much experience?"
What others saw as high-difficulty driving skills were no big deal to Ye Qiu.
But what puzzled him was why the system was being so generous, giving him so much experience at once?
"This challenge includes the experience from your previous consecutive escapes from life-and-death situations."
Hearing the system Fle's explanation, Ye Qiu realized: "That makes sense."
Then, looking at the frightened Xu Lei beside him, he smiled.
Afterward, he drove onto another avenue, but seeing the flowing traffic and no sign of Wang Jie and the others, Ye Qiu furrowed his brow tightly for a moment.
"Miss, they're gone!"
Ye Qiu felt frustrated and guilty. Hearing this, Xu Lei looked at the surging traffic around with a frown.
However, just then, Xu Lei's phone suddenly beeped.
Xu Lei was startled and took out her phone. Seeing the message, her face lit up with joy: "It's Luo Bing, she sent me the location."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu saw the location message on Luo Bing's phone and was equally delighted.
He then took the phone, looked at Luo Bing's location on it, and stepped on the gas pedal, the BMW 3X racing towards Luo Bing's direction.
