2992 Too Self-centered
In fact, Pei Heran didn’t want to be close to strangers. He was normally aloof, but he had a good impression of Leng Xiaoyao after he saw her skills.
Moreover, Leng Xiaoyao embarrassed Fang Haoming by beating him, which pleased them, so they were willing to be nice to her.
They had never liked Chu Jianan and his friends.
In other words, they didn’t get along, but they didn’t have serious conflicts yet.
“Great, Brother Heran, and Brother Rui.” Leng Xiaoyao quickly got used to it. As long as they were nice to her, there was no need for her to argue with them.
In addition, they were all born in rich families and were easy-going. It would be a good thing if they could be helpful in the future.
“Since you call them brothers, you can call me Brother Tianqi too. I won’t call you Miss Leng again. You’re very young, so I will just call you Xiaoyao,” Ling Tianqi said. He had a very good impression of Leng Xiaoyao, so he was willing to get closer with her.
Most importantly, Leng Xiaoyao was Xiong Manxin’s close friend, so he accepted her.
“No, no.” The moment Ling Tianqi finished, Xiong Manxin interrupted Leng Xiaoyao. “You’re my uncle. Xiaoyao is my boss. If she calls you brother, she’ll become your sister. How should I deal with her then?”
“We’re not related by blood. Why do you care about that?” Ling Tianqi rolled his eyes.
Hearing that, Xiong Manxin agreed and stopped thinking about it.
“Didn’t you say that you’ll be coming with your friends? Why are there only two of you?” Ling Tianqi asked.
“They were unable to get leave. Only my boss and I succeeded, so we came,” Xiong Manxin said.
“What? You asked for leave?” Ling Tianqi was shocked.
In the past, Xiong Manxin would leave school whenever she wanted. She had never asked for leave before, but now she did.
And her friends had all done that. None of them directly skipped classes.
“Why are you so surprised? I’m different now.” Xiong Manxin rolled her eyes at Ling Tianqi.
“Really? if you really have changed, why did you ask for leave to watch a car race?” Ling Tianqi laughed at her.
“I…” Xiong Manxin wanted to explain, but couldn’t say anything. She couldn’t say that it was Leng Xiaoyao who was interested in car racing and wanted to come. She wouldn’t put the blame on her friend.
Anyway, she wanted to come as well!
“Whatever!” Xiong Manxin stopped arguing with Ling Tianqi.
However, Leng Xiaoyao didn’t want Xiong Manxin to be misunderstood, so she said, “It was my request. I have an interest in car racing, so I asked Little Panda to ask you about it so that I could come.”
“Oh, do you know about racing cars?” Ling Tianqi asked.
“A little.” Leng Xiaoyao said, “Actually, I can drive as well.”
Hearing that, they were surprised.
“Boss, when did you learn to drive a racing car?” Xiong Manxin asked in surprise. She didn’t know that Leng Xiaoyao could drive a regular car, not to mention a racing car.
“I’ve been learning for a while,” Leng Xiaoyao said.
“Have you driven a racing car before? It’s totally different from a normal car,” Ling Tianqi said.
“Yes, I think I’m good at it,” Leng Xiaoyao said.
In her previous incarnation, she had done all kinds of exciting activities, including car racing.
“What?”
Ling Tianqi and the others were stunned and couldn’t believe it, but they remembered what she had done earlier, so they thought that she might not be lying.
“Boss, why don’t you give it a try later?” Xiong Manxin asked excitedly. She had complete trust in Leng Xiaoyao, so she believed that she could really do it since she said she could. She wasn’t worried at all.
“Little Panda, don’t be naughty. Car racing is extremely dangerous. If any accidents happen, it can cause a terrible result.” Ling Tianqi criticized. He didn’t think Leng Xiaoyao could really do it, so he was worried about her safety.
He brought them here after all, so he would feel guilty if anything bad happened to them.
“Don’t worry, Brother Tianqi, I won’t risk my life. I didn’t only come to watch the race. I’d like to try it too,” Leng Xiaoyao said. If she didn’t try it, she wouldn’t be able to earn Ling Tianqi’s trust.
If Ling Tianqi didn’t trust her, she wouldn’t be able to stop the accident, or scheme from happening.
Therefore, Leng Xiaoyao was determined to join the car race.
“But it’s too dangerous.” Ling Tianqi still thought it wasn’t a good idea.
“Brother Tianqi, do you dare to compete with me for a round? If you win, I won’t join the car race again. And I can do one thing for you as long as it’s legal and moral, but if I win, you must do one thing for me. What do you think?” Leng Xiaoyao said. She didn’t think it was a big deal.
Hearing Leng Xiaoyao’s words, they were astonished.
What? She wanted to compete against Ling Tianqi in car racing?
Did they hear that correctly? Ling Tianqi was a very skilled racer.
“Boss, do you want to compete with my uncle?” Even Xiong Manxin couldn’t believe her ears. She trusted Leng Xiaoyao, but she was still worried about her.
After all, her younger uncle was very good at car racing.
“Yes,” Leng Xiaoyao said.
“Xiaoyao, do you know how good Tianqi is at car racing?” Pei Heran asked. At that moment, his opinion about Leng Xiaoyao changed because she was a little arrogant.
“I don’t care. Since I dare to compete with him, I have confidence. Why do you question me when you barely know me? Because of my age or the rumors about me, or do you disdain me because I’m a girl?” Leng Xiaoyao asked openly, “Why do you think I can’t do it just because I’m beyond your knowledge? If so, you’re very self-centered.”
Hearing that, they were struck dumb for a second, but they were convinced by her. If they were self-centered and refused to believe that she could do it, it would be their fault. After all, Leng Xiaoyao clearly said that she could do it.
