The Eternal Phoenix Queen

Eps. 43: Racing

Five kilometers from the site of the Xize building, there is a private circuit owned by Xize which is managed by a company. The circuit has international standards, but is not open to the public. The place was only used exclusively for people from Xize, or from the Xize Company family who wanted to do their hobby there.

Feng Shang had access to the circuit because he took an access card from Shen Yi while the man was asleep. With the card, he is free to enter and exit the circuit at will, also free to use all the facilities that are there. The circuit administrators called her "Young Lady" because they saw she had Shen Yi's card.

Feng Shang chose a light green race car, while Jiang Li chose a bright red race car. This time, Feng Shang was sure that he had mastered driving techniques after learning for a while. For him, it's easy. In the Nine Heavens Realm, he was the fastest spiritual animal rider in the Three Realms, no one could match him.

"Director Feng, Director Jiang, are you guys ready?" shouted the officer. Feng Shang and Jiang Li simultaneously replied, "Yes!"

As soon as the flag was dropped, both of them drove like lightning. The wind caused by the high speed made the guard stagger while blinking his eyes. He did not expect that the two directors who were close to President Shen were so great, dared to race at this circuit.

Feng Shang's car had already driven for a hundred kilometers in less than forty seconds, leaving behind Jiang Li who was still at a distance of fifty kilometers. He passed each bend smoothly, then stuck the gas as it passed the straight path. The roar of the machine is buzzing in the ears, the sound of tire friction with asphalt like a lute.

Feng Shang had already gone through one round in a very short period of time. The officer clucked in disbelief. Apparently, the female relatives of their president were so great. If only he was a man, he might have been a great F1 driver, who was always champion in every game. Feng Shang was like a street demon, galloping asphalt like swimming in a clear watery river.

"Where is Director Feng?" ask someone. The officer was surprised.

"President Shen?"

"Where is that woman?"

"That's... Director Feng had just gone through one round of the circuit," the attendant replied hesitantly.

Shen Yi rubbed her face violently. This woman! Can't he just calm her down one day?

What if something bad happens? What if he had a terrible accident? Does that woman really want to die?

Just a moment ago he was in a meeting, then Zhang Bi told him that Director Feng and Director Jiang went to the circuit to race on the grounds of boredom. Shen Yi kicked the table, startling the board of directors and making them wonder. In the end, he handed the meeting to Zhang Bi and rushed over.

But the woman had really taken to the streets!

Shen Yi was about to catch up. The officer got in the way, saying that the risk of an accident was very high if he entered suddenly. After all, after he entered, would he be able to chase after Feng Shang? The woman is not an indiscriminate woman with abal-abal abilities. He was not a kid yesterday afternoon who was showing off greatness, but someone who was born with privilege.

Shen Yi finally decided to wait until it was over. He went to the inside of the circuit, the resting place of the riders. There, he was very well served. While watching on the big screen, he noticed the speed of Feng Shang and Jiang Li's cars chasing each other.

Meanwhile in the arena, Feng Shang had already passed the second round. One more lap, the race will be over. His heart cried out in joy because it had been a long time since he had not felt this kind of challenging sensation. He could not remember the last time he fought with others in terms of speed. It feels so fun!

Then, the third round is over. Feng Shang got off the car as the winner. When he opened the helmet, his unraveling hair moved in the wind. Feng Shang exhaled, sensing the challenging remnants of the arena. A few minutes later, Jiang Li followed as the second winner. When he got out of the car, Jiang Li sighed.

"Director Feng, you're really great!" praise Jiang Li. Feng Shang smiled proudly. He kept his helmet, then handed the car keys to the officer followed by Jiang Li.

"You're great too. You are quite worthy of Shen Yi," said Feng Shang.

Jiang Li was stunned. What did he say just now? Worth enough?

"Didn't you like Shen Yi for a long time?"

Jiang Li was silent. I don't know why the atmosphere is changing so fast. He felt a huge change in mood and emotion emanating from Feng Shang, who was looking at him cheerfully and with a smile. Her heart said that she had other intentions in her speech, something that might affect her life.

"Your goal is not to bring me here to just race, is it?" Jiang Li ventured to ask.

Feng Shang shook his head without letting go of his smile.

"No. I'm really bored. Director Jiang, are you thinking too much?" ask Feng Shang.

"Then, what did you mean by that question?"

"just simple. You like Shen Yi. I just wanted to tell you, never try to do anything to her. Liking him is your business, but if you interfere with his life, then it's my business" Feng Shang said.

Another officer who saw it would probably think: The legitimate wife is commemorating the concubine!

"Some time ago, you went to see Feng Ling and told her about my situation. I'm not gonna dispute it. But if it had an impact on Shen Yi, I'm not sure I would be able to help you. So, Director Jiang, never do anything. Be a good companion and best friend to Shen Yi," Feng Shang added.

Jiang Li sighed. He misjudged it. His actions that encountered Feng Ling were evidently known. In fact, he only told how Feng Shang was in the office, because when he was at home he did not know. He was also not a person lacking in work who stalked Shen Yi everywhere despite liking her.

"Director Feng, you're really great" Jiang Li said. He admired Feng Shang's ability.

"I also haven't thanked you for your help the other day. Director Jiang, thank you."

Jiang Li was surprised. A director Lingjing thanked him after slightly warning him?

"You still remember that?" asked Jiang Li.

Feng Shang nodded still with the same smile. He is not an ungrateful man. Even though his position was so high, thanks and apologies were not something expensive that he would not say. Far from it, he knew very well that Jiang Li was truly sincere to Shen Yi. Feng Shang only wanted to test it.

"Director Feng, you're such an interesting person. Next time, if you get bored, you can still take me to a race like this" said Jiang Li.

"certain."

Then, the two were startled by the sound of someone's cry being so thunderous in the desolate circuit. The two turned to the source of the voice, then found Shen Yi walking quickly with a dead red face.

"Xiao Shangs! Are you really tired of living?" shen Yi asked in a stifled voice.

"I said I was bored. So, I'm here."

"Fool girl, when are you gonna be smart? Do you think your life is nine? Do you think racing like this is something you can do haphazardly? What if you had an accident? What if you're hurt bad, can you still smile like that?" shen Yi asked.

Feng Shang felt himself being scolded. He looked at Shen Yi sharply, but the man's gaze was no less sharp as well. The two looked at each other. Jiang Li watched, feeling that a world war was about to happen. He moved backwards, about to get away from Feng Shang and Shen Yi. However, his movements stalled as his race car got in the way.

"You...Worried me?" asked Feng Shang after he thought for a while.

"No. I just don't have any explanation I should say if Chairman Feng asks me later," said Shen Yi. Feng Shang clucked. Admit it why is it so hard?

"Now, go home!" shen Yi.

"No way!"

"Xiao Shang, go home!"

"Oh. Alright."

Shen Yi clenched Feng Shangs wrist, then slowly disappeared behind the exit. Jiang Li was still watching them. He was astonished why such a fierce Feng Shang could turn out like a submissive paper tiger after arguing with Shen Yi.

"The two of them are just a matching couple" he said as he left the circuit.
