Ye Xiao sat in the driver's seat; actually, it was his first time driving a Q Rui. Like Ling Shuya, he had only heard about it and seen it online. Now that he was actually sitting in the car, things felt immediately different!

In Ye Xiao's eyes, there was no such thing as a good or bad car; it was all about the driver's skills!

"Miss, buckle up your seatbelt!" Ye Xiao inserted the key into the ignition, gave it a gentle twist, and the engine of the Q Rui roared to life!

Ling Shuya immediately looked at Ye Xiao with skepticism and said, "Didn't you brag about your excellent driving skills? Why the need for seatbelts, don't you have confidence in your skills?"

Ye Xiao, with his hands on the steering wheel, gently rotated it back and forth, adjusting the rearview mirror, and smiled, "I'm afraid my skills might scare you later!"

Ye Xiao was very confident in his driving skills, but as a wealthy heiress, Ling Shuya had always been driven to school by Weei Jie. Although Weei Jie was skilled, he drove very steadily. Ye Xiao's driving style was completely different from Weei Jie's; he thrived on speed and thrill. He worried that Ling Shuya might end up crying out of fear!

"Hmph, just drive how you want. Do you think this young lady is easily frightened? My cousin Ling Tian is a race car driver, and I've been in his car. I don't believe you can drive wilder than him!" Ling Shuya retorted, her face full of defiance. She knew about Ye Xiao's prowess in martial arts, but driving skills were not cultivated through fighting, and real driving aptitude required innate talent.

Ye Xiao laughed, "Your cousin? Heh, sounds like we're relatives!"

"Who's relatives with you, Ye Xiao? Stop thinking of taking advantage of me. It's one thing at school, but this is not school!" Ling Shuya snorted.

Ye Xiao just chuckled to himself, amused by his harmless teasing.

Though Ling Shuya was stubborn, she eventually buckled her seatbelt, not truly believing in Ye Xiao's driving abilities. As the car started moving forward, she immediately said with a laugh, "Ye Xiao, I'll give you a chance!"

"What kind of chance?"

Ling Shuya said, "If you can get us to the school gate within ten minutes, I won't bother you for three days!"

At Ling Shuya's words, Ye Xiao was visibly startled, then quickly turned to face her and said, "My lady, will you keep your word?"

Ling Shuya secretly chuckled. It would typically take at least half an hour to get to Minghai Academy from here, not to mention the traffic lights. Reaching there in ten minutes was a pipe dream!

Seeing Ye Xiao cherish the opportunity so dearly, Ling Shuya immediately said, "Of course I will keep my word, my words are absolute!"

"Alright, Miss, let's go now!" Ye Xiao responded.

Before Ling Shuya could react, Ye Xiao pressed the accelerator hard. Although his start was aggressive, Ling Shuya was incredibly surprised as she didn't feel any discomfort; it was very smooth!

However, what followed made Ling Shuya feel like she had entered hell—hell filled with floods and ferocious beasts!

Anyone knowledgeable about cars knew that a Q Rui was not high-end, and its parts couldn't compare with brands like Mercedes-Benz or BMW. But once this car was in Ye Xiao's hands, it seemed to be enchanted, speeding down the road like an arrow released from a bow!

It was nearly time for work and school to end, and with the hospital located in a bustling area, Ye Xiao drove the Q Rui at a breakneck speed. The steering wheel quickly shifted back and forth in his hands. From afar, the sight was astonishing, not least because the Q Rui didn't travel in a straight line, but in an S shape, narrowly zipping past other cars, sometimes with less than 1cm to spare!

Ling Shuya, who was usually fearless, now watched the outside world whip past rapidly. The possibility of colliding with pedestrians or vehicles at any moment filled her with trepidation, especially since Ye Xiao maintained a speed of around 100 km/h. Was this a highway?

Ling Shuya now truly wanted to grab the steering wheel from Ye Xiao, but she feared that her impulsive action might lead to disaster. After all, at such a speed, a catastrophic accident could occur at any moment.

For the first time, Ling Shuya truly felt as if she was riding on the edge of death!

Finally, the car stopped very steadily, so much so that there were no tire marks on the ground. Ling Shuya's originally rosy cheeks were now deathly pale. The moment the car halted, she quickly opened the door and got out, followed by the sound of vomiting!

Beautiful women are very conscious of their image and wouldn't compromise their perfect appearance unless absolutely necessary. Ling Shuya was no exception. While she wasn't overly concerned with appearances, that didn't mean she was disregardful.

At this point, Ling Shuya couldn't care less. She felt her insides churning, and unless she vomited something out, she felt she might suffocate!

During the drive, Ye Xiao had noticed Ling Shuya's unusually expressive face but hadn't anticipated the extent of her discomfort. So, he quickly got out of the car, walked up behind her, and gently patted her back, asking, "Can you hold on?"

Hearing this, Ling Shuya really wanted to slap Ye Xiao hard. However, she couldn't bring herself to do it. After all, they had made a bet, and Ye Xiao had not broken any traffic regulations. The car was still in one piece!

Ling Shuya didn't pay attention to Ye Xiao. In fact, she simply had no energy to engage with Ye Xiao at the moment; she just felt dizzy and as if all her strength had been drained!

After vomiting quite a bit, Ling Shuya got back into the car!

Ye Xiao had somehow procured a tissue and a bottle of water and handed them to Ling Shuya!

"Rinsing your mouth will help," Ye Xiao told Ling Shuya!

Ling Shuya lifted her head and glared at Ye Xiao but still took the water from his hand!

"9 minutes and 42 seconds!" Ye Xiao suddenly said!

Ling Shuya, puzzled, looked up at Ye Xiao and asked, "What're you talking about?"

Ye Xiao replied, "From just now until now, it's been 9 minutes and 55 seconds, not even ten minutes!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Shuya instantly became a bit angry. Just as she was about to speak, Ye Xiao quickly chuckled and said, "You said that you wouldn't trouble me for three days, you surely wouldn't go back on your word, right!"

The words that Ling Shuya was about to say got stuck because of Ye Xiao's remark. Indeed, she had said that. Moreover, considering the time it took for her to vomit and for Ye Xiao to buy water and tissues, a few minutes must have passed, but it was still not even ten minutes at this point. This meant one thing—Ye Xiao had made it from the hospital to the school in probably less than eight minutes, and this was what truly astonished Ling Shuya!

At this moment, Ling Shuya thought to herself that she had not realized, but Ye Xiao was actually quite skilled. His abilities were beyond her knowledge, whether it was playing basketball, fighting crooks, or now his speedy car driving. Ling Shuya was curious about what sort of person Ye Xiao really was, as there seemed to be nothing he couldn't do!

When a woman begins to be curious about a man, that is usually the start of trouble, and Ling Shuya was oblivious to this fact!

After a while, when Ling Shuya felt somewhat better, she said to Ye Xiao, "I'll keep my promise, but as your employer, I have some requests you surely won't refuse!"

Ye Xiao immediately bowed half-way and said with a smile, "I'm very willing to serve a beautiful lady like you."

Seeing Ye Xiao's absurd gesture made Ling Shuya burst into laughter, and then she said, "I want you to teach me how to drive!"

"Drive? Why? Don't you have me as your driver? If you don't need to go fast, I can drive just like Uncle Weei!" Ye Xiao said!

Ling Shuya replied, "You have to teach me. I wasn't aware of your driving skills before, but now I am. If you refuse to teach me, hmm, I'll disregard what was just said!"

Ye Xiao frowned and said, "But you just agreed that your word is as good as gold!"

Ling Shuya cunningly smiled and said triumphantly, "But I am a woman, and if you refuse to teach, it won't count. So, will you teach me?"

Ye Xiao could certainly teach Ling Shuya some driving skills, but Ling Shuya was someone important, the pampered single daughter of Ling Hengyu and from the Hengyu Group. If he taught her and something happened, it would be terrible!

Ye Xiao said, "Should we ask Uncle Ling about this?"

"No way, I must learn your driving skills, or else I'll dismiss you!" Ling Shuya was now feeling back to normal, so she spoke with confidence!

Teach her his driving skills? Ye Xiao smiled wryly. His driving skills were something a regular person couldn't learn, as he used Nine Yang True Qi to protect the car. Without strong Inner Power True Qi, it was impossible. Otherwise, Ye Xiao wouldn't have been able to drive so recklessly and safely in the traffic!

Ye Xiao naturally couldn't mention that it was because of the Nine Yang True Qi, so he said to Ling Shuya, "I can teach you the techniques, but to reach the level I drove at earlier, you'd need at least ten years!"

Not being able to mention the Nine Yang True Qi, Ye Xiao made up a response.

"Ten years? How could that be? How old are you even?" Ling Shuya said incredulously.

Ye Xiao replied, "You and I are different. Ten years, will you learn?"

Ling Shuya hesitated upon hearing Ye Xiao's words. If it was going to take ten years, why should she even bother? It would be terribly late by then!

Seeing Ling Shuya's furrowed brow, Ye Xiao then said, "Is there something troubling you? Perhaps I could help!"

"You? Right, you're currently my assistant, so there are some things you could indeed do for me!" A mysterious smile appeared on Ling Shuya's face, causing Ye Xiao to shiver, fearing he might have said something he shouldn't have!
