Chapter 259: Chapter 39 Victory

A minute later, Gu Xiaoxi suddenly slammed on the brakes and looked ahead at the road, her face instantly turning pitch black.

The afternoon sun poured down on the earth, and the roar of the cars couldn’t drown out the screams of the audience.

From the screen, not far in front of Gu Xiaoxi’s car, there was a stream.

The aerial view from the plane showed a long stream cutting across the road.

The muddy yellow stream water flowed gently, with the stream being seven meters wide.

This distance, even with a racing car’s buffer, was too long to jump across. The only way was to drive into the water.

This was probably part of the newly added fancy race track for this year.

Water crossing!

The race car had to traverse through the water, and getting across meant winning.

Because the track ahead had almost no obstacles!

However, the water depth was already marked on a sign next to it, one point seven meters.

If the car went through, it would be submerged up to the roof, likely only the hood would remain visible.

What was more infuriating was that the race car Gu Xiaoxi was driving was an older model, shorter than the depth of the water, one point five meters.

If it entered the stream, there was no question of driving it across.

It would probably just float downstream with the current.

Now, not only Gu Xiaoxi’s heart was cold.

Su San and her fans felt even colder.

Danny shook his head helplessly, this event had truly stumped people.

And over at Jiangzhong Coast, Quan Shaoqing sighed and muttered to the screen, "Just lose if you must! Safety first."

Three minutes after Gu Xiaoxi stopped the car, Korte caught up.

When he saw the stream ahead, he suddenly laughed three times and taunted triumphantly, "Shorty, go into the water if you dare!"

Gu Xiaoxi reclined in her seat, her expression cold, not saying a word.

In fact, she was considering whether or not to take the risk.

But reason told her that the probability of being swept away by the water was ninety percent.

That is to say, unless she switched cars, she would be a hundred percent washed away by the stream.

"Ah, not talking anymore. How pitiful, your car and you are both short. If you dare, go into the water. Let me see your superb skills," Korte’s fierce face was full of mockery.

Finally, he had caught his chance to mock Gu Xiaoxi harshly, and he wouldn’t let it pass.

Gu Xiaoxi clenched her fists, holding back the anger inside. If she went up and beat Korte up right now, both of them would probably be disqualified.

It wasn’t the time to get physical, giving up at this last moment was not in her nature.

Though the prospects of winning on this track were slim for her, easily surrendering was not Gu Xiaoxi.

Korte still triumphantly parked his car next to her, loudly mocking her.

Gu Xiaoxi closed her eyes, blocked out her hearing, and pretended she heard nothing.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes, her gaze landed on the murky water ahead, a spark of inspiration flashed, and she thought of a strategy.

Korte, after ridiculing Gu Xiaoxi for a while and seeing her not responding, lost interest, and was about to drive into the water.

After all, his was a high-spec racing car, not breaking any rules, and it was completely waterproof, so going through the water was not a problem at all.

And from here, it wouldn’t take him more than a few minutes.

"Planning on leaving now, big guy?" Gu Xiaoxi’s voice suddenly rose from behind him.

Korte sneered dismissively, "Trash, just wait here for a rescue! Someone will send a helicopter to transport you back."

"Buddy, being so arrogant isn’t good! With the water so murky, you don’t know what’s underneath. I think, we can form an alliance. Drive through together, and if we encounter danger, we can look out for each other," Gu Xiaoxi proposed with a sly smile. Under her sunglasses, her delicate chin was especially enticing.

Korte snorted coldly, "An alliance! I’m curious, what’s in it for me?"

Gu Xiaoxi chuckled mischievously, enticingly laid out her arguments, "1. Together, we can offset half of the water’s impact for each other, even if the water submerges the top of the cars, we can still drive steadily. It increases our chances of getting through. 2. We’re only allying temporarily, just until we get past this stream, then we both head for the finish from the starting point, winner determined by speed..."

"Enough! What a fool! Forming an alliance with you is like nurturing a tiger – simply inviting trouble!" Korte was no idiot, and certainly not about to be deceived by Gu Xiaoxi.

Gu Xiaoxi sighed, pouted, and leaned angrily in her seat, her expression sour.

At this point, Korte, looking at the water surface, was more or less shaken by Gu Xiaoxi’s idea.

An alliance was possible, but that person could definitely not be Lu Xi’s apprentice.

A minute later, Gu Xiaoxi sat motionless in the car, her expression growing uglier by the second.

Meanwhile, Korte waited for the three people who caught up from behind and then quickly sought an alliance with them.

And, he arranged the formation for crossing the creek exactly as Gu Xiaoxi had envisioned.

Two by two in parallel, with the front two cars side by side and the following car trailing behind. This way, having four cars together made it easier to mitigate the impact of the stream.

"Hey, Korte, how could you do this? I came up with that strategy. How could you abandon me and ally with others?" Gu Xiaoxi gripped the steering wheel, her complexion ashen, her tone full of anger.

Korte enjoyed seeing her infuriated and laughed arrogantly, "Shorty, if you’re so capable, go find someone else to ally with."

"..." Gu Xiaoxi was left speechless, angrily closing her car window.

Korte snorted coldly, his eyes revealing a hint of murderous intent towards Gu Xiaoxi, "Considering the good idea you came up with, I’ll let it slide for now. We’ll have a proper chat after the race."

Gu Xiaoxi sat in the car, took off her sunglasses, gently wiped off the dust, then elegantly put them back on, quietly watching the four cars enter the water together.

The four cars, with similar configurations, even had the same ride height.

As their cars collectively entered the stream, moving slowly forward, one could see a car roof still sticking out from the water.

The seven-meter stream, bridged by the two rows of cars front and back, made it almost obvious that the waterway was nearly blocked, forming a makeshift bridge.

Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes narrowed into a sly, scheming smile. Those who knew her understood that someone was about to be unlucky.

Just when everyone thought Gu Xiaoxi was at the edge of the stream, ready to give up the race.

The car parked at the roadside, with its white and blue livery, suddenly reversed and then charged towards the stream at full speed.

Those who were slow to react wore puzzled expressions... Crossing the stream, everyone moved at the slowest speed. Why was Gu Xiaoxi suddenly accelerating? Was she seeking death?

The high speed would undoubtedly make it impossible to maintain control, a fact well known to all.

Yet, those quick to react almost immediately showed excited expressions; they knew what Gu Xiaoxi was planning to do.

As all the spectators held their breath, they saw Gu Xiaoxi’s car charging forward at high speed towards the stream.

She didn’t drive her car into the water, but onto the roofs of the cars of Korte and his allies.

Using the parallel alignment of the two rows of cars, she successfully turned Korte’s allied vehicles into stepping stones with her high speed.

The white and blue car effortlessly leaped over and landed on the opposite track.

The car didn’t stop for anything and rushed to the finish line in one breath.

There was a moment of dead silence in the spectator seats.

What had they just witnessed?

Gu Xiaoxi’s car had reached the finish line! Flawlessly stepping on Korte’s car, she successfully cleared the final challenge!

"Ohhhhhh!"

"Yayayay!"

"Ahhhhh!"

At that moment, various victorious screams flooded the crowd like a tide.

Korte was in the water, feeling only a jolt to his car; moments later, the rumbling noise was gone.

He thought he was hallucinating.

When he got ashore, the overwhelming applause and screams baffled him...

Without thinking too much, he hurriedly pushed his car forward.

He sprinted to the finish line, leaped joyfully out of his car, and ran wildly, celebrating his supposed first place.

Especially upon hearing the screams from the audience, he was so thrilled that he wildly raised his palm and blew countless kisses to the camera.

Su San was so excited he felt like flying, because he had struck it rich with his bets on this race. After this event, he could probably retire and live out his days in comfort.

As he saw Korte on the track, sending out kisses in frenzy, curiosity welled up inside him.

Gu Xiaoxi had won the first place, so shouldn’t Korte be mad with fury? Why was he also celebrating so joyously?

Because he had gone mad from losing!

Su San scratched his head, puzzled!

Many spectators shared Su San’s thoughts.

Driving her car, Gu Xiaoxi rolled down the window and returned to the racetrack. As she drove into the spectator area, she made a lap around the field.

From afar, all anyone could see was the not-so-tall figure of the young person, sunglasses covering most of her face, with a delicate chin and deep contours that exuded an enchanting handsomeness.
