Rebirth from the Ashes Chapter 378 - Give Up My Life for You

Chapter 378: Give Up My Life for You

From the aerial drone footage, the judges could see two cars, one blue and one red.
The blue car was leading the red behind, speeding like a bullet. It was so fast that only its residual lights were captured. It was not at all a normal speed that a race car should have.
The blue car was fast and should have slowed down at the bend, but it did not. After the slope, it only got faster. The driver must be a lunatic for driving so recklessly.
The red car was faster than the blue car. It set off two minutes later, yet it almost caught up with the blue one. The third place was one whole bend away.
As for the rest, the fourth place somehow got stimulated after the red car brushed past it. It then started to accelerate to the maximum speed, trying to catch up to the red car.
The race was intense, and everyone was watching apprehensively. After being a judge for so many years, this was the first time he encountered such a situation.
Most racers were in pursuit of speed and the adrenaline rush, but the red and the blue drivers were gambling with their lives.
The rain got heavier.
When Bai Yu was at the sixth turn, he saw a white sports car rushing towards him.
At the bend, Bai Yu was once again overtaken.
It was just a flash of the moment, but Bai Yu caught a glimpse of the driver in the white sports car. It was Fu Qingxuan!
‘F*ck! Not just anyone, even Fu Qingxuan, my former rival, overtook me?! This is too much! It’s too devastating!’
Bai Yu, who was greatly agitated, accelerated and chased after him viciously to prove his strength.
Soon, Bai Yu was horrified to find that he was not only left far behind by the Boss’s lady and the red sports car, but he also could not even catch up to Fu Qingxuan.
Fu Qingxuan just felt like he was on steroids. His speed was so much faster than before as he desperately rushed forward and seemed to be chasing something.
Ahead of a curve, Fu Qingli, who was in the red sports car, was on the verge of a mental breakdown. He was so tense that he felt like he could lose it at any moment. His eyes were bloodshot as he kept accelerating.
In his line of sight, the blue sports car was going downhill, still accelerating. Others must think that the driver was crazy, but only he knew that their brakes malfunctioned. It was not that she did not want to slow down, but she could not.
Fu Qingli was not aware how much Shen Xi knew about sports cars, but from what he could see, she knew what was going on.
However, he became angrier and the fire in his chest surged when he saw this. The extreme panic and fear vanished and only fury remained.
Since Shen Xi knew what was wrong with the car as early as the first turn, she should have found a way to stop when her speed was still controllable at that time.
However, she did not. She continued to speed, which brought the car way past its limit that she could not stop even if she wanted to.
‘Damn that crazy girl! She’s a lunatic! Why must she continue and reach the finish line?’
Fu Qingli was about to go crazy.
Pei Xu was also going crazy and felt like his body was on fire. He let out an angry roar. “Shen Xi, are you crazy?! F*cking stop right now!”
‘She’s insane! She’s absolutely crazy!”
When Shen Xi found out that the brakes malfunctioned, she did not tell him and did not find a way to stop.
After she told him that the brakes were broken, she acted like nothing was wrong. Pei Xu asked her to find a way to stop, but she did not listen and kept speeding forward.
“Pei Xu, calm down.” Shen Xi turned to look at him. She was terrifyingly calm and had a vague tyrannical look in her eyes.
“How can I calm down? How am I supposed to calm down?!” Pei Xu just wished that he was sitting in the driver’s seat right now.
This was the third bend downhill and there were two more sections ahead. The downhill slope would only make the car go faster, so she should have thought of ways to slow down as early as at the previous bend.
However, his words fell on deaf ears even though he was yelling at her madly, yet she was just abnormally calm.
Pei Xu could not stop her with force because it would be more dangerous. One reckless move would be the end of them, so he could only watch as Shen Xi continued to speed forward. The car went down the slope and picked up momentum.
He did not want to win the race, nor did he want to see Ning Sinian. Pei Xu wanted nothing else at that moment but for her to slow down.
“Pei Xu.” Shen Xi let out a deep sigh. “Don’t distract me.”
After that one sentence, Pei Xu was no longer irritable or angry. The fire burning in his eyes miraculously calmed down. He looked at the road ahead with his deep narrow eyes as he gritted his teeth and said word by word, “Shen Xi! You. Crazy. B*tch!”
Shen Xi laughed like she was relaxed and happy. “Pei Xu, it’s rare that we can be this crazy in life.”
“Right…” Pei Xu laughed in a low voice. His tense body suddenly relaxed. When he tilted his head, there was a glint in his eyes. “Why do I like this crazy b*tch so much?”
Shen Xi was a stubborn, reckless, crazy lady who would do anything to keep her promise.
If it was not for that promise of winning the race, she would not have been so desperate.
Shen Xi said, “Because we’re both crazy.”
Pei Xu turned his head and looked at her solemnly. “Shen Xi, from now on, my life is yours.”
There was only one person in the world who would risk her life for a promise.
Then, he would give up his life for her.
How many people could be so lucky to meet such a confidant and loyal crazy friend in their life?
Shen Xi met his gaze. “Pei Xu, since you’re so sincere, I won’t hold back.”
Both of them looked at each other and laughed.
This was what going through life and death together meant.
The finish line of this race was also the starting point. The audience was looking forward to their return and was waiting to see who would be the winner today.
They already had an answer. The blue sports car, No. 4, and the red sports car were the dark horses of the day.
The red sports car departed two minutes after the blue car, so it was no surprise that the blue sports car would be the first to arrive at the finish line.
“Here it comes!” Someone shouted.
The audience looked over and saw a blue car racing wildly towards the finish line. In a flash, it crossed the finish line, but the car did not slow down or stop after the finish line. It bizarrely passed by and disappeared again.
Fans cheered halfway and stopped as they looked at each other strangely. No one knew what was going on or why the car went for another lap.
