Restlessness

The final drag racing location was set on the North Second Ring Road not far from the attached middle school. It is said that the road was repaired the year before last, but when the repair was halfway done last year, the boss owed people money for some reason, and finally couldn’t pay the wages of the construction workers. , simply ran away with the remaining project funds.

That's why the road was left hanging here.

Xu Yue followed at the end and listened to their small talk without saying a word.

"So, half of the North Second Ring Road is good and the other half hasn't been repaired at all?" Xu Yue blocked the group messages, and then put his phone back into his trouser pocket, "Aren't they all gravel roads?"

"It's not all. The half of the road that hasn't been repaired is a gravel road, and the rest is not. Anyway, if we drive fast, the distance must be enough. I think this half should be used as the boundary, and whoever crosses the good road first will win Win." Li Ranran turned around and paused for a few seconds.

and many more,

Is this the point?

Even if half is trimmed, but the other half is not.In case the wheels slip and fall when crossing the line...

Xu Yue couldn't help but frowned.

Forget it, anyway, he went with the attitude of focusing on participation, and it didn't matter to him whether he won or not.

"Understood." Xu Yue replied softly.

Gu Yuan didn't speak, but slowed down his walking speed a little until he was side by side with Xu Yue.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yue asked.

"The few of them chattering in front are too noisy, but you are quieter. The air quality is better than in front." Gu Yuan tugged at the strap on his shoulder casually.

"speak English."

"That... Actually, I want to discuss something with you."

Xu Yue raised her eyes.

This person would actually discuss it with other people. He thought that Gu Yuan was always arrogant and would never waste his words on things that could be solved with money.

"Tell me." Xu Yue sniffed.

"Just, for a while, you can go racing, can you..." Gu Yuan hoarse, his voice was very low, but nice. "Can you take me..."

Xu Yue stopped.

I don't know if it's because Gu Yuan is facing the light, or the sun is too glaring.The moment their eyes collided, Gu Yuan couldn't help turning his head away.

He was born with clear eyebrows, and under the afternoon sun, even if he turned his face sideways, he could still see his long and slightly curled eyelashes.

"Is it going to work?!" Probably because Gu Yuan didn't get any response for a long time, Gu Yuan immediately frowned. Just ask someone else."

"Ask someone else?" Xu Yue asked, "Who is the other person? I already feel sorry for Li Ranran's car when he is alone. Zhou Hui knocks on his car from time to time when he walks. Are you sure you want him to take you?"

"So just tell me, whether you take it or not." Gu Yuan said casually.

"Then take it." Xu Yue raised his chin, "But let's say it first, this kind of activity focuses on participation, and I'm not interested in rankings. To use Li Ranran's motto—life matters."

"Fuck, can you still do it?" Gu Yuan couldn't hold back his elbow and bumped Xu Yue.

I don't know when it started, Xu Yue, who had cold eyes and never cared about other people's opinions, seemed to become less annoying.

In the past, the North Second Ring Road, which was not even visited by rats, was crowded with sophomore students from the attached high school.

Li Ranran stood in the front row like the commander of the team. After looking around, he put his hands to his lips and shouted loudly: "Are you all here? OK! I'll start right away when I count down to 1. If you cross half the distance, you win, and the one who arrives last is invited to eat. Oh, and safety comes first.”

"it is good!"

"Got it."

"Hurry up and stop the ink, let's start, I can't wait."

The car in Xu Yue's hand was borrowed by Li Ranran. It was a variable speed car, but it was added with a back seat.For a moment, Xu Yue felt that all of this must have been specially arranged by Gu Yuan.

He rolled up some trousers and stretched his legs across the body of the car, his height allowing him to stand on the pedals on the other side.Gu Yuan stood behind Xu Yue with his hands in his pockets, his eyes fixed on his back.

He also saw such a back view a month ago.

A month later, this man...

Did she lose a little weight? Why does she look so thin?

Could it be that he laughed at him too many times on weekdays, and it really came true?

"Come on, why are you standing there?" Xu Yue interrupted Gu Yuan, "Everyone is gone, do you really want to pay for dinner?"

Gu Yuan came back to his senses and straddled the back seat of the car.Hehe laughed twice: "I'm distracted, I'm distracted, hurry up and hurry up."

Xu Yue slammed on the pedal, and the front of the car rushed forward without any buffer.

Gu Yuan staggered and put his hand on Xu Yue's waist.

Xu Yue, who was just about to gather strength and push hard, was stunned for a moment, and the car pulled away from the cars in front of him in an instant.

"you……"

"What about me, I almost fell when you suddenly rushed forward just now." Gu Yuan glanced lightly, but still didn't dare to look up.

"Isn't that what drag racing is all about? Could it be like an old man and an old lady riding a bike to buy groceries?" Xu Yue turned sideways and glanced back. "And you asked me to take you. It's too late to regret it now."

"Don't fucking talk about what's there and what's not, hurry up and ride, we're already the last one."

"Then...then sit down." Xu Yue's eyes trembled slightly, he cleared his throat and continued, "If you're really afraid that you'll fall, you should... hold on to the base of the car with both hands."

"Oh..." Gu Yuan let go of his hands obediently, and lightly pursed his lower lip.

A tall man of about 1.8 meters can touch the ground by stretching his long legs when he is about to fall. As for the conditioned reflex, do you just reach out and hug someone's waist?

The point is...

This person is still... or Xu Yue...

Damn, Gu Yuan felt a little ashamed.

"If you're really afraid of falling...then I'll ride slower." Xu Yue bent down slightly, and the car drove forward slowly, "Anyway, you can pay for all the dinners for so many classmates at the end."

"Xu Yue, are you still a human?" Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment, "You can take care of it, brother has plenty of money."

Xu Yue chuckled a few times, and drove forward with Gu Yuan.

The convoy is like a long dragon scrambling back and forth on the North Second Ring Road. The few people in front are pedaling their pedals like crazy, their expressions are all screwed together, and everyone is giving their lives to the side of the road once in a while. Pedestrians really demonstrated what it means to be crazy enough for youth.

And to the end of the convoy.

The sudden change in style of painting is also jaw-dropping.

Gu Yuan sat on the back seat with his legs bent, swaying left and right from time to time, looking slightly sideways at the dilapidated buildings on both sides of the road.

Xu Yue stepped on the pedal, one after another, aside from the slowness, there was still a sense of rhythm.

Until the end, Gu Yuan couldn't help but took out his phone from his pocket and randomly played an English song...

Very comfortable.

When they were halfway to the North Second Ring Road, Li Ranran held up an ice cream in his hand at the finish line and squinted at the two of them.When the two of them approached, Li Ranran shouted: "Brother Yuan, is there something wrong with the car? How did you two arrive?"

Gu Yuan coughed a few times and stood up, "No, it's just that Xu Yue's riding skills are really not good."

"..." Xu Yue's face turned cold, and he leaned the car against the side wall. "Okay, next time you come by yourself."

"I'm really convinced, Brother Yuan, a 2000-odd variable speed scooter is just for you to ride as an old scooter. It's so fucking amazing." Zhou Hui took a few bites of ice cream and said vaguely: " Anyway, for our dinner tonight, Brother Yuan, you and Xu Yue can cover both—”

A few boys from other classes behind him started booing.

Xu Yue couldn't help laughing, he patted Gu Yuan on the shoulder.

"Gu Yuan? Take care of your wallet."

"...To be honest, if I had known this, I would have run by myself. I'm afraid I could ride faster than you." Gu Yuan felt sorry for himself, he took the ice cream that Zhou Hui handed over, opened it and took a big bite.

Xu Yue was stunned.

Was this person's mind blown stupid by the wind? He was obviously afraid that he would not be able to sit still and fall down.

How come it turned out that my technique is not good and I ride slowly.

Damn, is this sense of superiority in the world of straight men?

"Okay, that's what you say. Anyway—" Xu Yue took a few steps forward, "I, no, money."

Gu Yuan rubbed his face and didn't speak again.

It's the first time I've seen someone speak so righteously that they can't have money.

As expected of Xu Yue.

There are not many high school sophomores participating in this extreme activity, and it is estimated that there must be 20 people.Li Ranran was able to catch Gu Yuan's handle with great difficulty, so naturally he would not let him go so easily.

I chose a nearby small restaurant with a comfortable environment that can accommodate more than 20 people at the same time.

Gu Yuan stood at the door and looked up for a long time.

"Li Ranran, thank you for saving me money." Gu Yuanke politely smiled at the girls in other classes next to him, and then squeezed Li Ranran's arm. "What kind of restaurant is this? Is the food edible? It seems that few people come here except for a slightly better environment."

Li Ranran glanced at him and said, "I called this restaurant at noon, and it was reserved in your name. If it were different from normal times, you probably wouldn't be able to eat if you wanted to, and you wouldn't even be able to squeeze through the threshold."

Gu Yuan: "??? Noon? Before the game, you already planned to let me pay the bill, right?"

Li Ranran chuckled twice, "You are the face of our class 1! And coincidentally, you two happen to be the last one... and they are still tied."

Class 1's cards are tied for the bottom one...

Ha ha.

I thank you all.

"Awesome, as expected of you." Xu Yue followed at the end and couldn't help giving Li Ranran a thumbs up.

In other words,

Nice job.

Several students from Class 1 sat in the same box, and various dishes were already set on the table.There are also a lot of pastries that don't look cheap.

Xu Yue took one and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Li Ranran, you are amazing, you can't tell that you don't have a physique like a sports student, but you can ride faster than Zhao Chen in class 1! Give us a face in class [-]!" Jiazhen poured a small glass of orange juice into the wine glass, He raised his head and poured it down.

Pretentious but also realistic.

Li Ranran froze for a moment, quickly swallowed the pastry left in his mouth and nodded to Jiazhen.

"Small meaning, small meaning, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning. Haha"

"Go ahead." Zhou Hui couldn't help poking Li Ranran's arm with the other end of his chopsticks.

……

"Well, this is really delicious." Xu Yue lowered her eyes and said

Gu Yuan gently turned the glass turntable half a circle, and his eyes flicked across the menu lying flat on the table.All the dishes were ordered by Li Ranran himself, and he didn't know anything about it.

Perhaps because he couldn't bear his curiosity, Gu Yuan still couldn't help but took the menu...

"Tiaotou cake, mint cake... 70?"

"Crab shell yellow... 60?"

"Leading sand circle... 120?"

"Sparse Rib Rice Cake... 45?"

"Fried bean curd noodle soup... 30?"

"Li Ranran! Are you an idiot!" Gu Yuan suddenly raised his head, "We have these things in the school cafeteria and convenience store! You usually eat a lot, so you went out of school to order something we used to eat, don't you?" There is something wrong, and... this is really not a black shop? 70 yuan for mint cake?"

Jiazhen stuffed a piece of peppermint cream into his mouth, and he choked several times when he heard this.Xu Yue handed over a bottle of mineral water.

"How much...how much? 70?" Jiazhen blinked and looked at Li Ranran, "Li Ranran, you are finished. Don't expect us to save you this time."

……

"Actually, I think...it's really delicious. It's not the same as the one in school." Xu Yue said inadvertently, and continued to stuff a mouthful. "And the fried rice you cheated on me before, you should pay it back now."

"Didn't you pay 50 yuan yourself? What does it have to do with me?" Gu Yuan was puzzled.

Gu Yuan and Xu Yue looked at each other, then sighed suddenly and stuffed another piece of mint cake into his mouth.

A defeat is a defeat, a crushing defeat.
