In America, my cousin, Supergirl Kara...

Chapter 83: You're saying my lines!

"You want to borrow my car?" Kara's delicate eyebrows arched into crescents as she deftly stabbed the last piece of beef tendon from her plate with her knife, stuffing it into her red lips, her pearly teeth crunching loudly. "Are you kidding me? I've never seen you touch a steering wheel!"

Before she could finish speaking, she slammed her knife and fork on the table with a loud bang, causing the soup in the plate to splatter everywhere, and her face instantly went from sunny to cloudy.

That's an incredibly fast change of expression!

Li Xiao clicked his tongue inwardly, cleared his throat, and said seriously, "I'm going to do something serious, not mess around. Besides, I can drive, I just haven't had the chance to show it off."

"Where's your driver's license?" Kara chuckled, taking out some chewing gum and chewing. "I'll take your word for it. So, are you planning to drive without a license? You really think those fat cops are idiots? Their eyes are sharper than eagles; they'll catch you and give you a hefty ticket!"

Kara's words carried a strong warning, amounting to a tacit rejection.

"I'll be careful to avoid them," Li Xiao said solemnly. This wasn't just empty talk; he could use his super hearing to judge whether there were police cars nearby and thus avoid punishment. "To be frank, I'm going to make money this time, and I can share some with you later."

"Hmm, you silly little brat, you've finally figured it out?" Kara's eyebrows danced with excitement, as if she were eagerly seeking gossip. "Tell me, what kind of rich woman would be willing to personally go to your door to serve you? That Corinna from last time? She was pretty good, big boobs, a nice butt, rich and beautiful. You really hit the jackpot!"

Upon hearing that Li Xiao was going to make money, Kara actually praised another woman's merits, which was quite rare, since women can compete over clothes, looks, and hair.

"No!" Li Xiao felt her temples throbbing and retorted fiercely, "Why would I sell my body if I can support myself? Have you forgotten the money I've earned these past few days?"

"How dare you say that? You're spouting nonsense while holding onto money meant for your life!" Kara suddenly stood up, gritting her teeth as she snapped, "That place is a meat grinder! Aren't you afraid of dying in the ring sooner or later?!"

Kara was very excited; as her red lips parted, pure white chewing gum rose and fell on her tender red tongue.

Spit flew everywhere, like glistening raindrops hitting Li Xiao's face.

Li Xiao turned his head away, rubbed his face a few times with his hands, and said, "Why are you attacking me with saliva when you're just talking?"

It still smelled like beef. He felt a little nauseous. He didn't want to smell anything related to cows for a while, but considering that he still needed his help, Li Xiao's tone softened.

"Underground boxing is only temporary. I want to get into a private university by fighting in legitimate professional matches in the future."

Kara looked at Li Xiao with a strange expression, as if to say, "Are you out of your mind? Why are you talking nonsense?"

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you. After a whole day of work, it's a waste of my breath to argue with a brat like you." Kara sneered and turned to walk upstairs.

Li Xiao was a little disappointed; as expected, his efforts to curry favor were in vain.

Just then, the crisp sound of keys clattering together rang out overhead, and a ball of silver flew down, which Li Xiao instinctively caught.

It was Kara's set of keys.

"Remember to fill the oil tank, I want 20% of the profits. And the beef you stewed is as tough as a homeless man's shoe sole! Next time, could you please cook it a little softer?"

After saying that, she quickened her pace and walked to the rooftop, slamming the door shut with a loud bang.

Two percent?

"Isn't that my line?" Li Xiaoda was so embarrassed when he shouted it. He was so full of ambition back then, but now that his cousin is pressing her face against him, he realizes how awkward it is.

Li Xiao felt a little helpless, thinking to herself that she really was destined to be a groundhog, while Li Xiao was digging in the cave and sweating profusely.

Li Xiao glanced at the time; it was just past seven, so getting there in an hour shouldn't be a problem. He should be back before two o'clock.

Li Xiao walked into the garage, and Xiao Ke came running over excitedly, its tail wagging like a windmill.

Should we take Xiao Ke out with us? Li Xiao stroked the dog's head. This guy is locked up at home every day and has nowhere to vent his energy. Let's take him out this time and let him have some fun.

Li Xiao wasn't worried about Xiao Ke's safety. Even if they encountered wild beasts like bears, Xiao Ke could outrun them with his super endurance and speed.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao opened the passenger door, and Xiao Ke jumped in happily, turning back to bark at Li Xiao twice, as if urging him to get in the car quickly.

Li Xiao chuckled softly, then pulled up the roller shutter door and returned to the car to sit in the driver's seat.

After adjusting the seat to a comfortable position, Li Xiao pulled the handbrake and pressed the clutch all the way down.

When the vehicle vibrates slightly, the driver slowly releases the clutch with his right foot, then presses the accelerator to shift into second gear, and the pickup truck speeds out of the parking space. All the movements are those of a driver who has been practicing for many years.

Kara stood by the window, watching the Pikachu's taillights disappear, and silently drew the curtains.

Li Xiao smoothly shifted gears to increase speed to 100 km/h, accurately avoiding all the potholes and ruts on the water-damaged road surface.

The car traveled along the road Kara often took. There were no tents here. After turning into two alleys, Li Xiao stopped under the eaves of a house.

That red brick house five meters ahead is Constantine's home.

Even through the car, Li Xiao could hear the deafening roar coming from that house.

"Don't eat the pickled radish! Get back to your damn room, you hear me?!"

"Dad, I really have something to do. I've already made plans with a friend, and I promise I'll bring you two packs of your favorite Marlboro cigarettes when I get home!"

"Fuck! You fucking stole my cigarettes again! I'm going to beat you to death, you bastard!"

Then came a commotion inside, with the faint sound of a television being smashed. The door was pushed open, and Constantine rushed out in a panic, carrying an oversized backpack that bulged like a small mountain, with pickaxes and hammers sticking out on either side.

"Hurry up! If my dad catches me, I'm dead!" Pika Constantine spotted Pika as soon as he saw it, immediately yanked open the door and climbed into the back seat.

"Why did you bring a dog!" Constantine threw his luggage aside and frantically patted the paw prints off his coat. "My dad's been glued to the TV all night, I suspect he'll go insane sooner or later."

Li Xiao didn't say a word, pulled down the handbrake, and floored the accelerator. The car spewed out a cloud of black smoke while standing still. Meanwhile, Constantin's father rushed out of the house and stood at the door, waving his fists.

"You damned brat, I'll skin you alive when you get back!"

Constantine shrank back and kept patting the back of Li Xiao's chair, urging, "Hurry up, hurry up, I'm begging you, buddy."

Li Xiao chuckled softly, feeling like a student being chased by his father while surfing the internet.

The car turned the corner, leaving the red brick house far behind, and the roaring sound gradually faded into the distance.

"Phew! Finally free!" Constantine let out a long sigh of relief, his expression immediately brightening. "Damn, the night air is so good! This feeling of freedom is amazing!"

After Constantine finished speaking, he rolled down the window, stuck his head out, and the night wind tossed his hair to one side in a mess. He roared excitedly, like a wild dog that had broken free of its reins.
