Chapter 216

Four race cars lined up at the starting line.

Jing Yi had chosen a black-and-white racing car, and the gaze beneath her helmet exuded the same sharp determination as always. This race was just a friendly match among friends, but they were also the first group of professional racers Jing Yi had ever met. She wanted to see how far the gap between them had widened now!

As the race began, the roar of engines instantly stirred up the heat of the racetrack.

Jing Yi gripped the steering wheel tightly, focusing intently on the track ahead, expertly maneuvering her car. Before long, she had secured the second position.

Henry and Marso were not to be outdone, closely following behind, the racetrack was filled with the intense atmosphere of competition.

However, among the four cars, a racing car with a black main body and red stripes firmly maintained the leading position.

If you enjoy watching racing events, you must be familiar with that car, which has successfully defended its title as the champion of the GT Challenge Cup multiple times.

Ross's driving skills have almost reached the level of unity between man and car. Whenever Jing Yi attempts to accelerate and overtake, he always manages to skillfully maintain his lead.

Until the last lap, Ross's racing car still maintained a steady lead.

Jing Yi crossed the finish line, looked at the figure in front, and smiled wryly.

Indeed, myths are not so easily surpassed.

The other three were indeed surprised by Jing Yi's racing skills. Henry took off his helmet and strode over.

"Jing! You've really improved a lot!"

Henry was convinced. He had not failed to consider the level of the contestants from the Jiangbei branch of Huaguo. Now he finally believed that Jing Yi's winning of the branch championship was definitely not by chance.

Marcel also walked over, his expression of surprise matching Henry's, and Jing Yi laughed and high-fived Marcel.

Although she didn't manage to come in first, she was still very happy to have a lively competition with her friends.

Ross walked over with a smile, patting Jing Yi on the shoulder, "Great, maybe next time you'll surpass me." Jing Yi responded with a sarcastic smile, "Ross, when did you learn to say such polite words?"

Ross shrugged, not denying it, "That's how it is in the world." Jingyi looked at him, her eyes expressing exasperation.

Rose's lips curled up, and his pale blue eyes seemed even more affectionate. "Just kidding, but not next time. Maybe the time after next, though."

He even emphasized, "This time it's not just polite talk." Jing Yi shook her head in resignation, her cheeks dimpling slightly with a faint smile.

Henry was too lazy to engage in their polite social conversation and directly interrupted their dialogue, "Stop talking about things I don't understand. Let's go! The usual place!"

Jing Yi finally managed to return, so the group naturally wanted to give her a warm welcome.

……

Cheers!

A few people's old haunt is Mazzo's bar in Berlin.

The stage featured a band that Jing Yi was not very familiar with. She put down the bottle in her hand and curiously asked, "Did Chloe and the others leave?"

Chloe is Matsuo's boyfriend and the bassist of the bar band before Jingyi left.

Masao nodded nonchalantly, "He went to pursue his dream."

Dreams? Jing Yi was puzzled.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Rose raised an eyebrow, still holding the wine bottle, and explained to Jing Yi, "She's just joking. Chloe thought she was giving too little, so she went looking for another wealthy woman."

Maso laughed, his smile bold and unrestrained, as he raised his wine bottle to clink with Ross, as if finding a kindred spirit.

Jing Yi was also accustomed to the personalities of these two, not really worried, after all, Ma Su was much more carefree than her.

What's more, she doesn't seem to be in a state that requires comfort.

Jing Yi looked at the person lazily leaning against the booth, with golden bangs falling over the forehead, appearing even more mysterious and alluring under the dim lighting.

"Anyway, I'm bored, so it's a good time to try something new." Her gaze was fixed on the lead singer on the stage, who seemed to be constantly watching Matsuo. When she looked over, the singer's performance took on a slightly different meaning.

Jing Yi, who understands the lyrics: ...Is this considered a change of taste, switching from a bassist to a lead singer?

Seeing Jing Yi's complicated expression, Henry mocked, "Jing, why are you still so stubborn after going back for a trip?" His tone carried a hint of disdain.

"...I'm not going there to reform."

Jing Yi's almond-shaped eyes silently looked at Ross. In just a few words, he had already received several bottles of wine and contact information from different people.

She really is as amazing as ever, she said those eyes are truly deceptive!

As for Henry, the standards are relatively high, but there's never a shortage of people around him.

It must be said that Jing Yi is indeed an outlier among this group.

Masao put her arm around Jing Yi's shoulder and leaned on her, speaking earnestly: "Jing, you can't go on like this; you're completely like a little lamb in the eyes of those smelly men." She had been worried about this for a long time.

"Masao, it's just a difference in personality. No matter how much I interact with you, I won't become you." She was genuinely worried that Masao might make a comeback and start assigning her tasks crazily again.

Ross called the waiter over and gave some instructions. The frequent advances were starting to annoy him, as he was here today to welcome his friend.

The waiter wasn't doing this for the first time either; he nodded and went to the back to make arrangements.

Compared to Matsuo's concerns, Rose is more worried about Jing Yi's life in a wealthy family, which is not an easy place to live, especially in a family like the Jing's.

"Masao, don't cause trouble for Jingyi, she has to live within the family."

Family?

Jing Yi was slightly stunned; this was the first time she had heard such a term since arriving at the Jing household.

Henry was concerned and asked, "That's right, I haven't asked about your life after returning. How are you adapting?"

A warm feeling passed through Jing Yi's heart. "Don't worry, they treat me very well," she said. Ross observed her for a few seconds, and seeing that Jing Yi wasn't forcing herself, he nodded.

Given Jing Beichen's character, he probably wouldn't make things difficult for a little girl.

Seeing this, Maza's concern in her eyes eased a bit. Just as she was about to say something, the lead singer of the band came down.

"Masao, is this your good friend?" He appeared to be quite the gentleman, as if merely seeking to meet the friend of his beloved.

But none of the people present were fools.

Jing Yi nodded, about to return a greeting, after all, he was Ma Su's newly appointed boyfriend.

But Maltho's expression cooled down first. She didn't speak to the lead singer, but instead waved her hand to call over the manager of the bar.

"Jade, change a batch."

Several burly men then dragged the lead singer away. He frantically called out for Matsuo, but received no response in the end.

Jing Yi looked puzzledly at Ma Suo, while Ross and Henry, unfazed, raised their bottles and clinked them together.

Henry teased, "Rose and I were still guessing how long it would take you to replace this person, but we didn't expect it to happen so soon."

The lead singer's self-assertion is not the first time, as he is dedicated to getting to know every wealthy and influential friend of Matsuo.

Henry had seen him like this before, but he didn't expect Matsuo to be so straightforward this time.
