Ling Shuya, Zhou Yuyan, Shen Qiuyu, and Lan Lan stood at the school entrance!

Four stunningly beautiful women stood at the gate of Minghai Academy, attracting the attention of passersby who were delightfully willing to feast their eyes.

"Didn't Sister Su say she was also coming?" Lan Lan asked, confusedly looking at Ling Shuya. "Why don't I see her here?"

Ling Shuya replied, "The time was changed to four in the afternoon. She's too busy. There's an exam tomorrow, and she's the class teacher!"

Upon hearing Ling Shuya's words, Lan Lan immediately nodded and said, "That makes sense!"

Just then, Zhou Yuyan exclaimed, "Look, the Q-Ray is coming!"

At that moment, Ye Xiao swiftly arrived at the entrance of Minghai Academy in his Q-Ray and halted!

Ling Shuya, Zhou Yuyan, Shen Qiuyu, and Lan Lan, the four stunning beauties, immediately walked over!

As the beauties got into the car, Ling Shuya looked at Ye Xiao, visibly annoyed, and said, "Where did you go this afternoon? Were you out on a date again?"

Then, Zhou Yuyan playfully said to Ling Shuya, "Oh, our Shuya is jealous again!"

"Jealous? Me?" Ling Shuya rolled her eyes at Zhou Yuyan and then added, "I just don't want him to lose too miserably in the exam tomorrow. Don't forget, he said he's aiming for a full score in Federation Language!"

Lan Lan, after hearing Ye Xiao's words, laughed and said, "Really? You're not joking, right?"

"Of course I'm not joking," Ling Shuya chuckled, then told Lan Lan, "I just love making bets with arrogant people like him!"

Shen Qiuyu smiled at Ling Shuya and said, "Shuya, you're definitely going to win. There's no doubt about it, so let's skip the bet!"

Shaking her head emphatically, Ling Shuya replied, "Sister Qiuyu, I can agree to anything else you ask, but I can't agree to this. If Ye Xiao is going to be arrogant, he needs to afford it. Otherwise, hmph..."

Hearing Ling Shuya's words, Shen Qiuyu merely chuckled wryly, glanced at Ye Xiao, and said no more.

Just then, Zhou Yuyan said, "Isn't the racing supposed to start at four? It's already three-thirty. If we're late, we won't see anything!"

In response to Ling Shuya's earlier comment, Ye Xiao acted as if he hadn't heard her. Clearly, he wasn't concerned about what she had said because he was certain he would win the bet—he had the standard answers after all, but of course, Ye Xiao wouldn't reveal that!

Ye Xiao slowly began driving the Q-Ray and nonchalantly said to Lan Lan, "Lan Lan, are you driving, or shall we head straight to the race track?"

"Of course, I'll drive. Later, just like before, you can park your car at my aunt's house!" Lan Lan said.

"Eh? Ye Xiao, you've really been to Lan Lan's house?" Ever the instigator, Zhou Yuyan quickly turned to Ye Xiao, a surprised expression on her face.

Ye Xiao replied, "We're innocent!"

Ye Xiao might have been better off not saying anything, for when he did, everyone was momentarily stunned and then looked at him with mischievous smiles, obviously feeling that his statement sounded very much like 'there's no silver here.'

...

On the way, Ling Shuya, Zhou Yuyan, Shen Qiuyu, and Lan Lan chatted and laughed, while Ye Xiao chuckled from time to time but steadfastly refused to join the conversation.

They didn't take long to arrive at Lan Lan's aunt's villa, where they drove out a BMW from the garage.

However, Ye Xiao decided not to park the Q-Ray inside but to drive it to the race track!

When Ye Xiao's decision was made known to everyone, they all looked at him as if he were an alien. A race track was not a place for a Q-Ray; oh my, it was a gathering place for luxury cars!

"Ye Xiao, maybe..." Even Ling Shuya felt it wasn't a good idea to drive there, as she was, after all, the heiress of Hengyu Group. If Ye Xiao really took her there in the Q-Ray, it might be okay if they didn't run into anyone they knew. If they did, however, it would be as though Ling Shuya's heart were a jar of mixed feelings, spilled open!

But eventually, under Ye Xiao's insistence, a BMW followed by a Q-Ray continued on the road!

Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan ended up riding in Lan Lan's BMW, both quite interested in the fact that Lan Lan could race.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiao and Shen Qiuyu sat in the Q-Ray!

As Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan changed cars, only Shen Qiuyu stayed.

The Q-Ray followed the BMW forward, and Ye Xiao chuckled to Shen Qiuyu, "Miss Shen really gets it, knowing what's hers!"

"It's not that, I just think that if I left as well, you might feel awkward. Actually, the BMW is more comfortable!" Shen Qiuyu candidly told Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao broke into a sweat, looking at the irritatingly equipped Q-Ray, and felt the urge to switch cars himself!

"If I win the lottery, I'll change cars immediately!" Ye Xiao said earnestly.

Shen Qiuyu immediately gave a light smile and said, "You think I don't know what you're thinking?"

Ye Xiao replied, "What am I thinking? I'm not thinking anything!"

Shen Qiuyu laughed again and said, "The place we're going to will definitely have a lot of nice cars. You, although you seem like you don't care about anything, actually care a lot about appearances, so..."

"Alright, big sister, stop talking. Why do I feel so transparent in front of you?"

Hearing Ye Xiao's helplessness, Shen Qiuyu chuckled again, then said, "The promise you made with Shuya, you might lose, you know. Don't underestimate this subject. You haven't taken the exam, and there are many things you don't understand."

"Hehe, just wait, I'll definitely win. Last night I dreamed, dreamed of the Goddess of Knowledge. She and I slept—together, no, she and I discussed the Federation Language. She said it's a foreign language, you don't really need to study it. But, to handle the exams, she gave me a special trick!"

"The Goddess of Knowledge said Federation Language is a foreign language?" Shen Qiuyu looked at Ye Xiao with a puzzled face!

Ye Xiao immediately nodded and said, "Yes, that's what she said."

"You must have dreamed of the Goddess of Knowledge from Yan Country!" Shen Qiuyu exclaimed.

Ye Xiao quickly responded, "How'd you know?"

Shen Qiuyu was speechless!

Fast Shadow Race Track!

A BMW car slowly drove in with Q Ray!

"Holy cow, what is that thing?" At that moment, someone among a group standing in the distance pointed towards the entrance and burst out laughing!

"If I'm not mistaken, that must be the legendary Q Ray. Who's so cool to actually drive a Q Ray here? Did they take a wrong turn?"

A few people pointed at the distant Q Ray and laughed among themselves, quickly catching Zhao Xin's attention. Zhao Xin looked towards the car; although she didn't recognize the Q Ray, she did recognize the BMW in front of it—it was Lan Lan's car!

After entering the racetrack, the speed of Lan Lan's BMW slowed down, and the Q Ray followed right behind the BMW!

Zhao Xin didn't understand why there was a Q Ray behind Lan Lan's car and why the racetrack's security let them in.

Today was not an ordinary day; people from Weihang Club in the provincial capital had sent someone to inspect the Minghai City branch of Weihang Club. If the Q Ray that had just entered was misunderstood by this 'special envoy' as belonging to the Minghai City branch, then even Xu Ming, eloquent as he might be, might find it difficult to explain!

Thus, Zhao Xin immediately walked over to Xu Ming, who was at that moment chatting with a trendy-looking young man about twenty-one or twenty-two years old.

"Brother Ming!" Zhao Xin called softly to Xu Ming.

Xu Ming, hearing Zhao Xin call him, looked puzzled, then apologetically said something to the young man before walking towards Zhao Xin.

Xu Ming approached Zhao Xin, furrowed his brow slightly, and said, "What's up? Didn't you see I was talking with Feng Yang? If we keep him happy, headquarters will definitely give us more funds next year!"

Zhao Xin, hearing Xu Ming's words and knowing that having good ties with Feng Yang was beneficial, felt compelled to bring up the Q Ray issue. She then whispered to Xu Ming, "Brother Ming, a Q Ray followed Lan Lan in. I'm worried. What if Young Master Feng sees it; could that be a problem?"

Hearing Zhao Xin's words, Xu Ming immediately looked up towards the distance. Indeed, behind Lan Lan's BMW was a Q Ray. Furious, yet not wanting Feng Yang to hear, Xu Ming looked at Zhao Xin and said, "Quickly, before Feng Yang notices, get that Q Ray out of here. We can't let him see it. If he goes back to the provincial capital and mentions it, we'll have a hard time!"

Upon hearing Xu Ming's words, Zhao Xin nodded in agreement and hurried off.

But just then, the trendy young man, Feng Yang, had already spotted the Q Ray!

"Xu Ming, come here!" Feng Yang, looking at the distant Q Ray, called out to Xu Ming.

Xu Ming hurried over and said with a smile, "Young Master Feng, what's up?"

Feng Yang said, "I remember you mentioned that this place was booked today."

"Yes!"

"What's with that car? Is it also one of your Minghai City branch's cars?" Feng Yang pointed towards the distant Q Ray.

What Xu Ming feared had happened!

Xu Ming was genuinely startled, fearing that Feng Yang had seen the Q Ray. And now it had indeed been noticed!

Xu Ming, breaking into a sweat, quickly responded, "Young Master Feng, please don't misunderstand; it's not one of our branch's cars. Surely the racetrack's security mistakenly let them in. I'll have them removed right away!"

"You still say it's not from your branch? Look where that car is parked!" Feng Yang pointed at the Q Ray.

Xu Ming turned his head and saw—to his horror—the Q Ray was actually parked in the spot reserved for their branch's cars, right next to Lan Lan's BMW!
