Chapter 52: Are They Tired Of Living?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Feng Yuan avoided her hand that was about to hold his arm. He did not seem to have any intention of responding to her. Instead, he looked at Xu Gui, “Xu Gui, it’s not that I don’t want to give you face. You saw it too.”
Xu Gui smiled bitterly, “I’m sorry.” He knew that he had forced him. Yuan did not have any feelings for Xiaoxiao.
Speaking of which, he was sick of Xiaoxiao’s pestering, so he mentioned it to Yuan once. He did not expect that Yuan would really agree to date Xiaoxiao because of his loyalty to him.
He had always felt very sorry regarding that. However, he thought that things had already turned out like this, he could not possibly persuade them to break up. He simply wanted to wait for Yuan to lose his patience with Xiaoxiao before he initiated the breakup.
He had not expected Xiaoxiao to say something so overboard.
If Xiaoxiao was only his cousin, he would have just reprimanded her but she was still Yuan’s girlfriend now.
Even if Xiaoxiao didn’t know that Yuan cared about Yan Jinyun, she should be able to tell that he cared about Yan Jinyu very much. Xiaoxiao was still Yuan’s girlfriend so how could she say such things in front of Yuan?
“I was the one who forced the whole thing.”
“It’s not entirely because of you. I’m also tired of being pestered. That was the best solution at that time. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have any peace even if I went out to play games.”
Xu Gui’s lips twitched. His words seemed to be a little hurtful.
However, he did not deny it. Even as her cousin, he was pestered to the point that he had no choice but to speak to Yuan, let alone Yuan himself.
He couldn’t care about this anymore. Xiaoxiao had done it to herself.
Feng Yuan did not realize how hurtful his words were. In his opinion, what he said was the truth. He looked at Xu Xiaoxiao, whose expression was rapidly changing, and said decisively, “Let’s break up. You aren’t my girlfriend in the future.”
“Oh, I remember that breaking up requires that kind of breakup fee? Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer. When I go back today, I’ll give you 200,000 dollars for Xu Gui to transfer to you. Don’t think that 200,000 dollars is too little. I haven’t taken any advantage of you in the past few months that I’ve been with you. At most, I’ve only held your hand.” She was also the one who took the initiative to hold his hand. He only did not shake her hand off for her sake… or rather, for his good friend Xu Gui’s sake.
“200,000 is my living allowance for two months. If I give it to you, I won’t even have the money to go to the Internet cafe. I don’t even know where I’ll go for the next two months.”
Feng Yuan was actually exaggerating. He was the heir of the Feng Family, how could he really only have this bit of pocket money? However, 100,000 dollars was fixed to him by Luo Linlin every month. Feng Chen was the one who gave him the big part of his pocket money. However, Feng Yuan was not someone who spent money carelessly. Without any special circumstances, 100,000 dollars was enough for him to spend for a month.
A monthly allowance of 100,000 dollars was a huge sum to ordinary people, but it was really nothing to them, the descendants of wealthy families who spent money like pouring water out. It could be seen from the fact that Yan Qingyu had given Yan Jinyu a three-million-dollar card the first time he made a move.
If it were anyone else, they would probably feel very embarrassed to say that they only spent 100,000 dollars a month in this situation where there were a group of young masters from influential families around. They would not have said it so casually at all. Only Feng Yuan was an exception, and he even said it so confidently.
“I’m not breaking up!” Xu Xiaoxiao was angry and a little sad, “Brother Yuan, I’m not breaking up! I don’t agree to break up!”
As she spoke, she was about to pull Feng Yuan’s arm, but Feng Yuan avoided her. He frowned, “I’m not asking for your opinion. I’m just informing you. Although I don’t get angry often, I’m not without a temper. If you don’t want to lose face, I advise you to stop before you go too far.”

When Xu Xiaoxiao saw that he indeed wasn’t joking, she completely panicked. Her tears flowed down in a whoosh, “Why must we break up? Just because of what I said just now? I didn’t mean it. I didn’t mean anything else either… Brother Yuan, forgive me this time, okay? Just forgive me this time. I promise I won’t say anything in the future…”
“Alright, it’s settled.”
“Brother Yuan…”
Seeing that the referee below had already raised his signal gun, Feng Yuan said impatiently, “If you speak again, I don’t mind asking someone to make you leave. I believe you don’t want to lose face either.”
Xu Xiaoxiao stopped crying when she saw him threaten her impatiently. She bit her lips and clenched her fists. She followed Feng Yuan’s gaze and saw the red car below.
A hint of ruthlessness flashed across her eyes.
This was all because of Yan Jinyu!
She had pursued Feng Yuan for three years before Feng Yuan finally agreed to be with her after much difficulty. If it wasn’t for Yan Jinyu, how could Feng Yuan have broken up with her!
Yan Jinyu had better die on this racetrack! Even if she didn’t die, she definitely wouldn’t let Yan Jinyu have an easy time!
Luo Yikun, who had witnessed this scene, did not take it to heart at all. He would break up with a girlfriend every two or three days. This was not a strange thing to him. Instead, he was more interested in the upcoming race.
When the signal gun sounded, Luo Yikun said, “It’s starting now.”
Xu Gui looked at Xu Xiaoxiao, whose expression kept changing but did not dare to cry. She sighed and turned her attention to the track.
As for Feng Yuan, it was as if the person who had just broken up with a girlfriend wasn’t him. His gaze was fixed on the red car on the racetrack. From his clenched fists and tense face, one could tell how nervous he was right now.
The people in the stands were not in the mood to care about Xu Xiaoxiao’s breakup drama that was caused by one sentence. They were all focused on the track.
The female racers were the eldest daughter of the Qiu Family from the capital and the eldest daughter of the Yan Family from North City who was very famous recently. The eldest daughter of the Zhao Family and the second daughter of the Yan Family were also sitting in the cars.
Zhao Yue was negligible. Yan Jinyun was the top socialite in North City and the goddess in the hearts of countless boys. Facing such a racing competition, most of the boys present were more nervous than interested.
The people in the stands were nervous, but the people in the car were calm.
The cars dashed out at the same time. Qiu Jian glanced at the red car beside her and scoffed, “I didn’t expect Yan Jinyu to still have some ability. However, this is only the beginning. The show is just starting!” After saying that, she accelerated!
Zhao Yue, who was looking at the other car calmly, jumped in shock.
Her face turned pale when she saw the car’s speedometer.
This was already very close to Luo Yikun’s fastest speed. Would Qiu Jian be able to do it? She wouldn’t be messing around, right?
Fortunately, there were no major bends in the track. Otherwise…
She hoped that Qiu Jian really wasn’t messing around!
Qiu Jian increased his speed, and so did Yan Jinyu. However, compared to Zhao Yue, who was pale with fright, Yan Jinyun, who was also sitting in the front passenger seat, didn’t have a change in her expression.
She could even chat with Yan Jinyu, “Looks like you really know how to race. Have you played before?”
“No, I don’t have the time.” Yan Jinyu stepped on the accelerator and held the steering wheel tightly. She smiled casually at Yan Jinyun, “However, I’ve experienced a lot of life-and-death situations. Yun’er, don’t worry. I won’t lose to her.”
“…” Yan Jinyun. Who’s worried about that?
It was only then that she realized that she had never been worried that Yan Jinyu would lose. She had never worried that she would be in danger when she got in this car.
However, what Yan Jinyu just said…
She had never played in a car before, but she was comparable to professional racers. Her driving skills were even better. What had Yan Jinyu experienced?
Also, what did she mean by “I’ve experienced a lot of life-and-death situations”?
Was this speed of life and death the one that she understood? The kind that one could lose one’s life if one was careless.
Although Yan Jinyu didn’t elaborate, Yan Jinyun already had an answer in her heart.
She pursed her lips tightly and remained silent.
As she was thinking, she suddenly remembered that there was a huge bend in the track. She suddenly looked up and saw that it was the sharp turn in front of her. Both of the two cars were head-to-head. With Yan Jinyun’s eyesight, she could tell that Qiu Jian wanted to accelerate and overtake them here!
No, Qiu Jian’s plan was not as simple as overtaking the car!
At this bend, Qiu Jian’s car was in the inner lane. They were in the outer lane. Qiu Jian wanted to use this to bump their car out of the racetrack!
As the name suggested, the underground racing arena was not very open which meant that there were many irregularities.
The outside of the bend was a cliff! And it had no protective bars!
Yan Jinyun finished analyzing everything in a second. She didn’t have time to think carefully. She sat up straight and shouted nervously, “Sister, be careful!”
“Don’t worry. Sit tight.”
Seeing that Yan Jinyu’s expression didn’t change and was still indifferent, Yan Jinyun’s heart finally relaxed slightly.
She really sat down obediently.
It had been a long time since she had felt such nervousness and fear. No, she had. Not long ago, when she found someone to abduct Yan Jinyu.
Yan Jinyu seemed to be involved in the rare emotional upheaval.
Really…
In the stands, everyone could no longer see the racetrack. They could only watch the situation on the racetrack from the live broadcast screen.
“W-What is she trying to do?!” Xu Gui was so excited that he even pulled Luo Yikun’s arm. For the first time, Luo Yikun did not shake him off. Or rather, Luo Yikun’s attention was not here at all.
Everyone was tense and did not even dare to blink.
Accelerating to overtake in the inner racetrack. They were so ferocious. They didn’t even dare to do it!
Are they tired of living?!
No, it should be more accurate to say that Qiu Jian wanted to kill the other party!
