Transmigrated as a Scumbag Alpha, I'm a Salted Fish on a Dating Show (GL) - Chapter 20
Zhou Qian instantly accelerated, clinging to Gu Chixue’s tail like a maggot, still constantly trying to overtake.
Gu Chixue looked at Zhou Qian in the rearview mirror, her expression unwavering, calmly controlling the car to block the essential path forward.
But due to the increased judgment required, she had to divide some of her attention to the car behind.
Xie Qingcheng seized this opportunity, flooring the accelerator. The 12-cylinder engine ran at its limit, roaring as it surged forward from behind, attempting to repeat her previous maneuver.
Ye Rou’s worried voice came through: “Xie Qingcheng wants to overtake like before. Be careful.”
Gu Chixue felt the tearing sound of wind from the right side of the car, a cold smile tugging at her lips. Heh, do you think I’ll give you a second chance?
She suddenly shifted the steering wheel a little, and the car immediately slid to the right, blocking Xie Qingcheng’s position.
Zhou Qian, seeing the car ahead yield the lane, scoffed and stepped harder on the gas, intending to overtake right there.
But unexpectedly, just as he was about to succeed, that pure white car reappeared before him like his nightmare.
Just as a collision seemed imminent, Zhou Qian instinctively slammed on the brakes, creating some distance.
Gu Chixue then continued to control the car, moving in an S-shaped curve on the road. The sequential gearbox gears furiously meshed and operated, and the engine’s performance was pushed to its absolute limit.
Whenever a car from behind was about to overtake her, she could always appear in front of their car first.
She actually blocked all paths for the two cars behind her, single-handedly, like a nimble fish!
Zhou Qian and Xie Qingcheng looked at the car effortlessly weaving through the track. One was furiously pounding the steering wheel and cursing, while the other silently swore inwardly. Both couldn’t help but feel a sense of frustration.
They couldn’t even break through Gu Chixue’s blockade. In the face of such raw strength, all their schemes were declared bankrupt.
[Oh, my God, what am I seeing! Gu Chixue has perfectly utilized the track’s characteristics, perfectly blocking the advancement of the vehicles behind. Even though her car has the worst performance among the three, she has perfectly overcome the objective physical gap with her powerful skill!]
[Is such foresight and strategic thinking truly possible for a human brain? This is too unbelievable! Let’s all shout Gu Chixue’s name; she is the God of the Track tonight!]
Everyone was in disbelief at what was happening before their eyes, but the reality was right there; you had to believe it whether you wanted to or not. Sometimes, one had to admit that the disparity between people was even greater than the difference between species.
The host’s shouting voice echoed in the night sky, and the audience’s roars grew louder. Everyone was unleashing their excitement and admiration.
Just like that, the two cars behind Gu Chixue continuously tried to break through the blockade but were suppressed by her powerful driving skills, unable to move. They couldn’t overtake on turns, and their straight-line acceleration was blocked.
Bright headlights, like dazzling light spots, illuminated the distant darkness. The roar of engines continuously came from far and near. Racing girls with fervent smiles continuously waved flags in their hands near the finish line.
A pure white race car, under the illumination of the searchlights, seemed to transform into a phantom, fiercely crossing the finish line. The next second, a piercing brake screech echoed through the night sky.
Dark tire marks formed a perfect circle on the ground, and the race car steadily came to a halt in front of everyone.
Then, two more cars roared past the finish line, carrying what sounded like unwilling whimpers in the strong winds they stirred up.
The host’s excited voice, like a country scoring a goal, amplified by the speakers, boomed in everyone’s ears.
[Tonight’s champion has been born! She possesses a perfect countenance bestowed by the Creator, she has superb driving skills, she conquered superior vehicles with the worst-performing race car, she created a record of 15 minutes and 56 seconds to complete 48 kilometers at the Jiangcheng Racing Club, she achieved a speed of 225 km/h on such a complex track, she broke the world record!]
[She is Gu Chixue! Let’s salute the birth of a new world record!]
The audience at this moment was already immersed in a carnival of celebration. Colorful fireworks soared, painting the dark night sky with incredibly brilliant colors.
As the race ended, the passion receded like a tide. Ye Rou, in a moment of clarity, sat quietly in her seat, watching the magnificent fireworks outside the car window, her eyes gradually becoming hazy.
She whispered, “This feeling is truly wonderful. Just the two of us sitting in the silent car, feeling the fervent noise outside, it’s as if the whole world is celebrating for us.”
“It’s romantic, isn’t it?”
Gu Chixue looked up at the fireworks blooming high in the distance, her exquisite face illuminated by the flickering light.
Having just cooled down from the excited emotions, she was momentarily plunged into a rare emptiness. Hearing Ye Rou’s words, she turned to look at her, and again she saw her full reflection in those watery eyes.
Her heart suddenly settled at the moment their eyes met.
In the long silence, she chuckled, “It is quite romantic. I got the championship you hoped for, so remember, you owe me a wish.”
As Gu Chixue said this, there was a complexity in her eyes that Ye Rou couldn’t understand, but she didn’t delve deeper.
A big smile filled her cheeks, and she nodded forcefully: “Of course, I’m waiting for the day you make your request.”
She paused, then blinked and hinted playfully: “For example, you could say something like, ‘I want to be with you.'”
“Cough, cough.” Gu Chixue was extremely embarrassed.
After knowing her for so long, she still hadn’t adapted to Ye Rou’s direct way of speaking.
Unusually, however, this time she didn’t forcibly avoid the topic, pondering for a moment.
A hint of struggle flashed in Gu Chixue’s eyes, but she finally said seriously, “If fate allows it in the end, I think I will.”
Ye Rou had originally prepared herself for Gu Chixue to avoid the topic, so she was unexpectedly surprised to hear a direct response.
She couldn’t help but widen her eyes, quite surprised: “Hmm? I thought you were going to change the subject again. But what does ‘fate allows’ mean? I didn’t realize you were so superstitious.”
As she spoke, she suddenly realized the key element. A mischievous smile crept up her lips, and she leaned closer to Gu Chixue: “Did you just admit you like me? Hahaha, I told you you wouldn’t escape my grasp.”
Gu Chixue smiled as she looked at the girl who was leaning closer, extending a finger to block the face that wanted to get even closer: “Not yet, oh. As for what fate is, you’ll know in the future.”
She sighed inwardly, I hope you can always keep that smile, and never understand.
Ye Rou wrinkled her high nose, pulled back a bit, clearly displeased: “What? Then you just said it so ambiguously. No wonder people call you a scumbag Alpha, hmph!”
As she spoke, she turned her head away from Gu Chixue, looking like she didn’t want to talk anymore, which was quite adorable.
Gu Chixue looked amusedly at Ye Rou, who was throwing a small tantrum. She thought for a moment, then reached out and stroked the girl’s head to comfort her: “We’ve only known each other for so long. Isn’t it too fast to talk about liking each other now? Leave everything to fate and time. The right people will eventually come together, won’t they?”
Feeling the warmth on her head and listening to Gu Chixue’s gentle tone, the slight dissatisfaction and frustration that had risen in Ye Rou’s heart were gradually soothed.
Her small head couldn’t help but nuzzle against the hand on her head. She turned back and pretended to be annoyed: “Did you often trick other Omegas like this before? Hit them with a stick and then offer a sweet date?”
Gu Chixue’s face was full of helplessness: “You said I was a virgin earlier, and I was being very serious just now.”
“That’s right, you’re such a contradictory person! No, I still need to observe you; I don’t want to be tricked by a big liar like you!”
Ye Rou’s thoughts were instantly disrupted by Gu Chixue. She put a hand to her chin, frowning, meticulously examining the person in front of her. Her tilted head nodded occasionally, as if constantly affirming her own thoughts in her mind.
She didn’t know how endearing her innocent look was.
Gu Chixue looked at the adorable little person in front of her, feeling a tickle in her heart. The thought of pulling the girl into her arms and ruffling her hair popped into her mind.
The moment she realized this thought, she vigorously shook her head, a bitter smile in her heart.
This demoness is truly a seductive submissive. Thankfully, my heart is firm. Anyone else would have fallen for it long ago. She even felt a bit smug.
If Ye Rou knew about this thought of hers, she’d probably be kneeling on the washboard for days in the future. What are you even smug about, you jerk!
“Ahem, let’s get out of the car soon. Everyone must be getting impatient staying in the car.”
Listening closely, Gu Chixue’s voice had a hint of discomfiture.
Ye Rou was still immersed in her own world. Hearing the voice, she snapped back to reality and looked up to see Gu Chixue had already opened the car door and was about to get out.
She quickly spoke: “Hey, wait for me!”
With that, she quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car with Gu Chixue.
When the two got out of the car together and appeared side-by-side in everyone’s sight, the cheering suddenly escalated.
Especially when Gu Chixue smiled and waved to everyone, her beautiful and delicate face, illuminated by the continuously rising fireworks, looked like an angel fallen into the mortal world. Everyone could see the elegant and charming smile in those captivating fox eyes on the large screen above.
Every gesture exuded the nobility and allure of a top Alpha.
People gathered around Gu Chixue, loudly shouting her name. The waves of sound from the crowd and their excited, fervent expressions were as if they were in the presence of their king.
Zhou Qian and Xie Qingcheng, looking dejected, pushed open their car doors and got out. They watched Gu Chixue and Ye Rou, who were standing side-by-side enjoying the cheers from the crowd, and countless times imagined what it would be like if they could take their place.
But alas, their skills were inferior. Such a scene would forever remain only in their minds.
They stood on the periphery, unnoticed by anyone. Everyone’s gaze was fixed on the champion, never bothering with the thoughts and feelings of those in second or third place.
Only Lin Fengran, looking at Gu Chixue in the center of the crowd, who was holding Ye Rou’s hand high and gesturing to everyone, had eyes full of excitement. There was no trace of the unwillingness or hardship of having lost the race on his face.
He was still muttering to himself. Wang Meng, standing closer to him, heard a bit: [My goddess’s beauty is simply heavenly. After the show, I must go check if my family’s ancestral grave is smoking green, to be friends with her.] And so on.
Wang Meng’s face turned into a black line after hearing it clearly. She helplessly glanced at Lin Fengran, muttering, “People who idolize celebrities are truly terrifying.”
At this moment, Ye Rou, whose hand was being held by Gu Chixue, wore a professional smile as she looked at the dense crowd around them.
Suddenly, her pocket vibrated. She quietly squeezed Gu Chixue’s palm, looking down at her pocket, indicating something was up.
Gu Chixue nodded knowingly, taking a step forward to block most of Ye Rou’s body.
Ye Rou hid behind Gu Chixue, secretly lowered her head, and pulled out her phone. Her eyes, which had been full of warm smiles, were instantly replaced by coldness. After thinking for a moment, she put her phone away and rejoined Gu Chixue’s side, looking composed as if nothing had happened.
Gu Chixue felt the fleeting chill from the person beside her and looked at Ye Rou with a puzzled expression.
Seeing that her demeanor was as usual, she didn’t delve deeper.
