I became financially independent right after entering college.

Chapter 112 Tit for Tat

"What on earth do you want to do? I've already told you it has nothing to do with him, and you can't be faster than him." Chen Shuyan's expression was full of doubt and confusion. She knew too well the significance of running a 4 minute 1 seconds on a stock M12.

Even if Han Han or Ma Qinghua were to come, they might not be able to achieve this lap time by driving the same car.

It has nothing to do with him? How is that possible?

Sun Shengjie said in his dying struggle: "Shuyan, I know what you are thinking now, but I don't ask for much, I just want a chance.

If I run away from him now and I win, our previous agreement will still be valid. If he wins, I will turn around and leave, and will never bother you again.

It's time to make a conclusion. Sun Shengjie knows very well that if he does nothing, he will be eliminated, so he might as well give it a try.

If he wins, he will continue to pursue Chen Shuyan. If he loses, he will cut off all ties with his sword and go back to inherit the family business.

"You're running with him now? Running with him on your Maverick?"

"Ah."

Chen Shuyan's expression was uncertain, and his eyes kept wandering between Sun Shengjie's Lamborghini Maverick Performance and Bai Chou's GT3RS. He repeatedly observed the details of the two cars, making comparisons and trade-offs in his mind.

Of course, she hoped that Bai Chou could win so that she could completely put an end to the mess between her and Sun Shengjie. Bai Chou's driving skills were undoubtedly much better than Sun Shengjie's.

The only thing to consider is the difference in cars.

Although Sun Shengjie's Niu was only launched last month, the Niu Performance is a new model released last year. This time, the Niu has continued the tradition of Niu turning the tables and has dominated major domestic and foreign tracks in the past six months.

Bai Chou's 991.2 GT3 RS is the latest model of this year, and its speed is unknown. However, the lap times of the previous generation 991.1 GT3 RS on various tracks were only slightly slower than those of this generation of Mavericks.

This generation of GT3RS shouldn't be slower than the previous generation, so in terms of mechanical performance, the two should be about the same, and the GT3RS has basically no disadvantages.
The pressure comes from the tires.

The tires on Bai Chou's GT3RS are cup 2 tires specially formulated by Michelin for Porsche. This is a set of tires that are 20% street and 80% track, and the formula is more inclined towards track.

The tires used by Sun Shengjie's Mavericks are Pirelli P zero TR, which is basically a set of dedicated track tires, and the grip is even more terrifying than Cup2.

Overall, Sun Shengjie's car may be about 1 to 2 seconds faster than Bai Chou's car.

"Okay." Chen Shuyan nodded slightly, not thinking that such a small advantage could make up for the technical gap between the two.

"I will decide the format of the competition." Sun Shengjie added, his eyes flashing.

"If he has no objection, I have no objection either." Chen Shuyan shrugged, not believing that Bai Chou would accept competition rules that were more unfavorable to him.

After reaching an agreement with Chen Shuyan, Sun Shengjie didn't hesitate at all. He turned and walked towards the bustling crowd, sneering and mocking: "Anyone can brush the lap time. Only those who can run offense and defense, and run dogfights, are true masters.

Besides, Li Zhongjiu said that his M4 was not modified, so who knows if he secretly modified it.

The originally bustling parking lot suddenly became so silent that you could hear a pin drop. Everyone turned to look at Sun Shengjie with an expression of disbelief.

what's the situation?
In their memory, Sun Shengjie was not such a narrow-minded person. Most of the time he was very versatile and could get along well with anyone.

Why did you suddenly become like this today?
"Is this guy an idiot..." Li Xue muttered softly and asked Li Zhongjiu with her eyes. Reality is not a novel. There are not so many villains who appear to be in your face for no reason.

Even someone with low emotional intelligence like Li Xue felt that Sun Shengjie's ridicule was outrageous.

Li Zhongjiu glared at Li Xue, then walked towards Sun Shengjie with a forced smile: "Brother Shengjie, I really haven't changed. I don't believe you..."

"Zhongjiu, it's none of your business." Sun Shengjie's face was cold, and he pushed Li Zhongjiu away. His usual tactful and pleasant expression was gone.

People's emotions always collapse suddenly at some point. At this moment, Sun Shengjie's true colors were exposed, or it could be said that he was venting and letting go after an emotional breakdown.

"I heard from Zhongjiu that you have raced karting and open-wheel formula one before?" Sun Shengjie walked up to Bai Chou, staring at his face and asked.

"I've practiced for a while." Bai Chou said expressionlessly.

"Heh." Sun Shengjie sneered, thinking that Bai Chou was most likely lying. Just because he was fast didn't mean he had practiced open-wheel equations.

In order to pursue Chen Shuyan, Sun Shengjie spent all his money. In addition to buying a car and practicing driving, he also made up for a lot of professional knowledge in the field of racing.

Bai Chou's flying circle skills are indeed at the level of a professional driver, and he is probably not much slower than the top drivers in the country.

But Bai Chou doesn't match any of the young domestic drivers that Sun Shengjie knows.

The only person whose experience is similar to Bai Chou's, and who matches him in terms of age, appearance, driving skills, and financial strength, is Zhou Guanyu, a young driver who drives F3 in Europe.

Sun Shengjie was more inclined to believe that Bai Chou was lying to inflate his own status, or that he had only practiced open-wheel equations for a short period of time.

"Are you interested in giving it a try?" Sun Shengjie's eyes flickered, and he had an idea in his mind.

Bai Chou tilted his head and asked with interest, "How do we compare?"

"It's not about lap times, it's about actual racing. One lap decides the winner. Starting side by side, whoever reaches the finish line first wins."

After explaining the rules of the competition, Sun Shengjie added viciously: "If you lose, you will disappear from this track forever and will never be able to come here again."

"Brother Shengjie, this..."

"Get up, you have no right to speak."

Sun Shengjie pushed Li Zhongjiu, who was trying to mediate, away and stared at Bai Chou provocatively: "What do you think? Do you dare to compete?"

Bai Chou was completely confused and did not answer immediately but fell into deep thought.

There was indeed unprovoked malice in this world, but according to Li Zhongjiu's description, Sun Shengjie was clearly not that kind of person. How could a businessman in his late twenties suddenly harbor such strong malice towards him?
Bai Chou glanced at Chen Shuyan, who was sitting on the hood of Exige and isolated from the group. Chen Shuyan, who had been paying attention to this side, saw Bai Chou looking at him, and subconsciously looked away, not daring to look at Bai Chou, with a panicked look in his eyes.

I understand. So I have become a part of your play, and it is most likely related to Chen Shuyan.

Bai Chou suddenly felt annoyed. The feeling of being suddenly dragged into trouble for no reason was really annoying.

"You lost?" Bai Chou asked impatiently.

"I lost, so I'll give you that car." Sun Shengjie pointed with his thumb at the low-lying cool sports car not far behind him.

He'd never really liked sports cars; he preferred SUVs, commercial vehicles, and luxury cars. If he couldn't defeat Bai Chou, then he and Chen Shuyan were doomed, and there was no point in keeping the Lamborghini.

Although it can still be sold, do I, Sun Shengjie, need this little money?

The most important thing is that when he broke up with his love, he also lost a sports car worth more than four million yuan, which made him look very tragic and affectionate.

Like many men who, after a breakup, foolishly resort to self-harm, smashing furniture, and playing basketball in the pouring rain. Love can't be salvaged, and such meaningless outbursts only hurt their wallets and bodies. But the person involved enjoys it; people always do stupid things.

As soon as Sun Shengjie said this, there was a burst of exclamations and gasps of surprise. Betting a Lamborghini worth over four million yuan was a huge gamble.

Everyone who had originally hoped that Bai Chou could resolve the conflict with Sun Shengjie now wished they could carry the two of them to the track to see who would win.

Everyone loves to watch the fun.

Quack!

Damn, we just want to watch this kind of thrilling duel. Being able to witness this one-on-one fight that only exists in legends with our own eyes is worth the price of admission even if we die.

"Don't worry about me losing and denying my debt. My family owns 4S stores in every city in JS Province. I won't blame you for a multi-million dollar car."

Seeing that Bai Chou was still in deep thought, Sun Shengjie added another sentence.

"I'm not afraid that you'll default on your debt..."

Bai Chou smiled, glanced at Chen Shuyan who was standing aside not far away, and pointed at the Exige under Chen Shuyan's butt: "You don't need me to drive a GT3RS to beat you, that car is enough. I'll drive that car and race with you."

Sun Shengjie was stunned, and an expression of ecstasy instantly appeared on his face. Is there such a good thing?

He was very familiar with Chen Shuyan's Exige, which had a front engine power of 430 horsepower, a body just over 4 meters long and weighing less than 1.2 tons. It was light and small, and it could be said to have taken lightweighting to the extreme. It was the ultimate track machine and was very suitable for low-speed tracks like Wanchi.

But it's just an Exige after all, no matter how much advantage it has, it can't be faster than the Mavericks and GT3RS. Not to mention the temperature is 30 degrees today.

The Exige uses the engine and gearbox of the Toyota Land Cruiser. This assembly is very sensitive to the temperature. At a temperature of 30 degrees, the engine horsepower can only reach about 380 horsepower, while the Maverick has a full 640 horsepower.

As for what Lotus brags about driving pleasure and tuning... only cars that are not fast enough would brag about driving pleasure.

"It's a word."

Overjoyed, Sun Shengjie agreed immediately, then paused and frowned before saying, "But you have to ask Shuyan to lend you the car first."

Will Chen Shuyan lend it?

In Sun Shengjie's opinion, if Bai Chou drives an Exige to compete with him, he will definitely lose. Chen Shuyan, who hopes Bai Chou will win, probably will not agree to lend the car.

"I'll go talk to her."

Bai Chou walked straight up to Chen Shuyan, who was pretending to be indifferent, and made Patrick Star's classic hand-stretching pose: "Give me the car keys."

"What?" Chen Shuyan was slightly stunned and looked surprised. You have been chatting with Sun Shengjie for a long time, why do you ask me for the car keys?

"Give me the car keys, I'll drive your car and run away with him." Bai Chou said expressionlessly.

"Are you crazy?"

Chen Shuyan, who was known for his aloof style, finally showed a larger expression on his face. He stared at Bai Chou with wide eyes in disbelief: "Do you know what you are betting on? If you win, you can drive away his car worth more than 4 million yuan, and you actually want to use my car to run away with him.

This Exige is indeed very suitable for this track, but no matter how suitable it is, it can never beat the Lamborghini Mazda. If the Exige can beat the Mazda, Lotus will not be acquired.

Moreover, this is not just a bet between you and him. If you lose, I..."

"What does it have to do with me?" Bai Chou asked casually.

Chen Shuyan was stunned, then pursed her lips and lowered her head with a complicated expression. Yes, what does it have to do with Bai Chou?
From Bai Chou's perspective, he was involved in it for no reason. He was just following the track normally, but suddenly he was attacked because of the mess between them.

"Sun Shengjie inexplicably challenged me to a match. You must have your reasons."

Bai Chou looked a little unhappy: "You brought the trouble to me, and wanted to use me to get rid of the bootlicker. I drove your car and ran away with him. We can return the favor, it's fair."

If you make me unhappy, I will make you unhappy too. Bai Chou is very annoyed by people who cause him trouble for no reason.

Chen Shuyan is different from Li Xue. Li Xue has a narrow vision and is timid. The troubles caused to him are not troubles at all to him.

The trouble that Chen Shuyan caused him was real trouble: Sun Shengjie's family had a net worth of at least tens of billions and was very powerful in the province, but Chen Shuyan inexplicably became ill-intentioned towards him.

Bai Chou wouldn't say that he was afraid of Sun Shengjie, but this trouble seemed fucking speechless to him.

You've caused me so much trouble even though we're not related. Do I owe you anything? I've been very polite by not causing any trouble.

"You're right, tit for tat, that's fair."

Chen Shuyan took a deep breath and pursed her lips. She was not the kind of person who didn't understand things, so she obediently stood up, made way, and handed the key to Bai Chou.

"This is just revenge for making me unhappy. Since you made me unhappy, I'm going to keep you on edge for a while. When I defeat him and help you get rid of the lickspittle, you'll owe me another favor."

"Do you really think you can win? My car can't reach its maximum horsepower in the summer." Chen Shuyan's eyes almost popped out, as if someone was punching her on the back of the head.

If the Exige with a front horsepower of around 380 wants to beat the 640-horsepower Maverick, physics and aerodynamics will no longer exist, and all Lamborghini technicians will have to be laid off.

"What's wrong? Is there any other problem with your car?" Bai Chou tilted his head and looked at Chen Shuyan.

"No, my car is in good condition. The chassis is flat and the tires are new Hankook TD." Chen Shuyan shook his head.

99% new, owned by a beautiful lady, in top condition.

"Then I guarantee to win, brother." Bai Chou looked confident.

Even Schumacher couldn't drive a Nissan Sylphy to beat an amateur driver driving a Lamborghini, but the performance gap between Exige and Lamborghini is not that big.

Wanchi is a low-speed track, and the second half is almost entirely low-speed U-turns, so the Maverick's 640 horsepower cannot be fully utilized.

The EXige's 380 horsepower is enough to ensure that its acceleration between 50 and 120 km/h is not much worse than that of the Maverick. In addition, the Exige's small size, short wheelbase, and short track also make it more suitable for low-speed tracks than the Maverick.

Bai Chou believes that both driving Exige and driving Gt3rs are sure wins, the only difference is the way of winning.

"Can we really win?" Chen Shuyan looked worried and a little unsure.

"Good, that's the expression I wanted to see on your face. Just keep on being so nervous until I cross the finish line before Sun Shengjie does.

Remember, you owe me a favor."

Bai Chou glanced at the worried Chen Shuyan, and the unhappiness in his heart dissipated a lot. As expected, he still had to retaliate on the spot.
