The Strongest Delivery Man - Chapter 12
Fang Ye’s three roommates were dumbfounded, and even the female internet café attendant was stunned. She had never seen her boss being so intimate with a man before.
Fang Ye, who was busy taking precise shots at distant enemies, hadn’t yet grasped what was happening. As a fragrant scent drifted past him, someone wrapped their arms around his, pulling him into an embrace. He turned his head and immediately frowned.
“Why is it you again? Let go of me. If you have something to say, wait until I finish this match.”
“Alright, I’ll do as you say!” Wen Xin obediently let go of his arm.
Meng Hu and the other two felt their hearts shatter.
What did he mean by ‘you again’? And what was with that disgusted expression? Had she already set her sights on him long ago?
Was Fang Ye just naturally gifted at living off women? Where was the justice in this world?!
The three were utterly distracted. Qin Yiming, who was driving in the game, crashed headfirst into an enemy, getting wiped out by a couple of bullets. In the end, all four of them were eliminated in an instant. Fang Ye was so frustrated that he almost threw his phone against the wall. He had just picked up an AWM sniper rifle but hadn’t even fired a single shot yet…
“Fang Ye, I want to borrow something from you,” Wen Xin said with a sweet smile.
“What is it?” Fang Ye looked at her suspiciously. “I can lend you most things, but my body is off-limits!”
“What are you even thinking?!” Wen Xin huffed and playfully punched him.
Seeing the two of them bickering flirtatiously, the three single roommates were practically in tears.
Fang Ye, come on, man! You already have a billionaire sugar mommy! At least give them a chance…
“I want to borrow your car!” Wen Xin finally revealed her real intention.
Fang Ye was taken aback. “You mean the Veneno?”
“Unless you’re offering me your delivery scooter?” Wen Xin rolled her eyes. “My 812 hasn’t arrived yet, but I have a race tonight. That’s why I wanted to ask you.”
“Sure,” Fang Ye said casually, pulling out his car keys. “Just be careful. I don’t mind if the car gets wrecked, but make sure you’re safe.”
“Thanks!” Wen Xin never expected Fang Ye to agree without thinking over it. Overjoyed, she took the keys and, on impulse, kissed him lightly on the cheek.
Clack!
Hu Fei and Qin Yiming swore they could hear the sound of their own hearts shattering.
Getting kissed by two different stunning women in a single day, Fang Ye felt a bit lightheaded. But he decided to give her a little tease.
“You didn’t eat garlic tonight, did you?” he asked, wrinkling his nose.
“No, why?” Wen Xin looked puzzled.
Fang Ye rubbed the spot she had kissed, sniffed his fingers, then put on an exaggeratedly disgusted expression. “You’re lying. You totally did!”
“You’re unbelievable!” Wen Xin, now flustered and embarrassed, pounced on him in mock rage.
Yet another round of public displays of affection! The three single roommates were practically drowning in their own tears…
To make it up to them, Fang Ye agreed to accompany Wen Xin. Meng Hu and the others couldn’t have been happier. Without him around, they could finally enjoy their time gaming with the pretty café attendants.

It was nearly midnight, and at the foot of the Winter Resound Mountain in the southern outskirts of Huahai, over a dozen sports cars had gathered. Among them were even sportcars that worth tens of millions.
Many young women with stunning figures were mingling in the crowd, taking selfies and recording short videos with the car owners. The atmosphere was lively, resembling a grand festival.
A young man with dyed green hair sat atop a McLaren P1, accompanied by a beautiful woman who was just as stunning as Wen Xin.
“Xiao Qi, it’s almost midnight. Is your friend coming or not?” Liu Fei asked impatiently.
“Brother Fei, your racing skills are legendary in Huahai. She’s probably too scared to come,” Li Qiqi giggled. “The grand prize is practically yours tonight. No one stands a chance against you!”
“Five million is nothing to me,” Liu Fei snorted. “What interests me more is your friend.”
Li Qiqi’s expression turned a bit uneasy. “Brother Fei, don’t worry. If she doesn’t show up, she automatically forfeits. As per the agreement you guys had, she’ll have to be your girlfriend for a month. She can’t back out of it.”
“Hmm, a month should be just enough time to have my fun.” Liu Fei slowly exhaled a smoke ring, his eyes gleaming with wicked amusement.
Just then, a man approached. “Young Master Liu, it’s almost time. Please get ready.”
“Got it.” Liu Fei started his McLaren P1 and drove it to the starting line, where two other sports cars were already positioned.
“The race will begin in five minutes. All drivers, please get ready!”
Winter Resound Mountain’s racing event was held once a month and had become a gathering place for the city’s wealthy heirs.
Influencers and internet celebrities who could pull the right strings also saw it as a prime location for content creation.
As the three sports cars were warming up, the spectators were already deep in discussions.
“If nothing unexpected happens tonight, Young Master Liu will win the championship again.”
“I heard a Ferrari 812 was supposed to join the race. Where is it?”
“I also heard that the owner is a beautiful woman. Maybe she got scared and didn’t dare to show up?”
“I don’t think so. She already paid the 1.5 million registration fee. There’s no way she’d just let it go to waste.”
“With Young Master Liu here, it doesn’t matter if she comes or not. The result will be the same…”
With just one minute left until midnight, a wine-red Lamborghini slowly drove onto the scene.
“Oh my god, isn’t that the limited edition Veneno?”
“What a stunning car!”
“It completely overshadows Young Master Liu’s P1. Amazing!”
All eyes turned to the Veneno. When the window rolled down, it revealed the breathtaking face of Wen Xin.
The event staff quickly stepped forward to confirm her registration and directed the Veneno to enter the race track.
“Uh, should I get out and wait?” Fang Ye asked.
“Why? Are you doubting my driving skills?” Wen Xin replied.
“Not at all. I’m just afraid my handsomeness might distract you,” Fang Ye joked.
He had already witnessed Wen Xin’s driving skills on the way here. While not at a professional level, she was definitely an expert among amateurs.
Handsome? You wish!” Wen Xin was both annoyed and amused.
“If I’m not handsome, why did you kiss me?” Fang Ye grinned.
“Got any wet wipes? I forgot to wash my face earlier.”
“I’ll take you down with me later in the race” Wen Xin gritted her teeth.
“Just kidding! Don’t take it seriously!” Fang Ye immediately straightened up. After all, she was the one holding the steering wheel.
A race girl in a revealing outfit walked to the center of the track, holding a checkered flag. The four sports cars roared inanticipation, their engines growling deeply.
Several drones took off, ready to livestream the entire race onto the big screens nearby.
The rules were simple: drive to the peak of the Winter Resound Mountain and return via a different route. The first to cross the finish line wins.
As soon as the flag dropped, all four cars launched forward simultaneously. The powerful gust from their takeoff lifted the race girl’s skirt, triggering a chorus of whistles from the crowd.
Thanks to its superior engine performance, the Veneno immediately pulled ahead on the straightaway, leaving the second-place McLaren P1 two car lengths behind.
The Winter Resound Mountain’s track was infamous for its 28 consecutive turns. Wen Xin’s driving skills were already impressive, and with the Veneno’s capabilities, she was even more unstoppable. Although Liu Fei was right behind her, the gap between them was gradually widening.
“Brother Fei, if this continues, we might actually lose,” said Li Qiqi, his co-driver, sounding worried.
“Shut up! No one beats me on The Winter Resound Mountain!” Liu Fei gritted his teeth and slammed on the accelerator.
Using his familiarity with the 28-turn track to his advantage, Liu Fei began closing the distance. By the time they neared the peak, the gap had shrunk to less than two car lengths. The other two racers had long been left in the dust.
Liu Fei’s skill was undeniable, and his intimate knowledge of the track allowed him to slowly gain on Wen Xin.
The big screen displayed the intense race in real-time, keeping the audience on edge.
“See? I was right! No one can beat Young Master Liu on The Winter Resound Mountain!”
“Not necessarily. The girl driving the Veneno isn’t bad either, and her car has the upper hand in performance. It’s still too early to call.”
“Wanna bet on it? How about 100,000?”
“Oh, you’re on!”
******
The descent was even trickier than the ascent. By the time they reached the mountainside, the McLaren had completely overtaken the Veneno. Using the treacherous nine-hairpin section to his advantage, Liu Fei expanded his lead. By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, he was nearly four car lengths ahead.
Only about two kilometers of straight road remained before the finish line. Wen Xin knew this was her last chance. She floored the accelerator, and the Veneno shot forward like an arrow released from its bow…
