Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Car Destroyed and Lives Lost
Atop the extremely perilous track, the other four teams had all sent out their top racing drivers.
When Chen Yu drove his race car into the designated position, the four racing masters all cast strange glances at him.
"Brother, I heard you're a chef, huh! And you're also Mr. Tong's son-in-law. How could he bear to let you participate in this kind of competition?"
"Could it be that he wants to find a new home for his daughter?"
"If you ask me, you better go back! Find a good place to cook your dishes, otherwise, you won't even know how you die in a while."
...
Chen Yu didn't pay attention to these four guys, but stared intently at the track ahead, with a barrage of information continually flashing through his mind.
In Chen Yu's current understanding, the Monte Carlo track was merely a low-level circuit.
For him, all he needed to do was maintain the car's velocity, and he could finish the course safely.
However, he couldn't afford to play it safe today, instead, he had to secure the championship.
Tong Ming's agreement had been reviewed by him, and it was evident that the Zhao Family had been sabotaging behind the scenes.
If he couldn't win today, the Tong Group's racing industry and other advertising revenues might very well fall into the Zhao Family's hands.
Chen Yu took a deep breath, and as the referee gave the command, his car shot out like lightning.
The other four drivers were stunned; they hadn't expected Chen Yu to be able to seize the moment right before the referee's order and take the lead.
The start of the Monte Carlo track was an extremely steep downhill, where no one dared to go at full speed.
And Chen Yu's speed had already reached the critical point!
The four racing drivers were taken aback all at once. They had been too busy taunting Chen Yu just now to realize that he could possess such prowess.
All of the large screens at the race venue were showing Chen Yu's figure; the accompanying drones had now projected his profile onto the big screens.
"Damn it, who is this kid? So fierce, to actually dare to drive like that on the Monte Carlo track!"
"With that kind of speed, hasn't he lost control? What's he going to do when he goes uphill?"
"It's over, he's probably going to wreck his car and lose his life in a moment!"
...
Tong Ming and Tong Ya had their hearts in their throats, staring intently at the screen in front of them.
Tong Ya even covered Tuan Tuan's eyes, afraid she would see something she shouldn't witness.
Just when everyone was heart-wrenchingly anxious, Chen Yu's car had reached the uphill section.
All of a sudden, his car tested the big rocks on the side and flew into the air.
The next moment, Chen Yu's car began to leap along the steep mountain road.
In a blink of an eye, Chen Yu had completed half of the course in this extreme manner.
The other four drivers were still struggling along the windy and tortuous track.
For them, this circuit was essentially hell mode.
They didn't dare to go too fast, as they would only end up dead between the cliffs and precipices.
But as time went on, resignation was written all over their faces.
Chen Yu's speed was simply too fast. They had only completed a quarter of the distance when Chen Yu had already reached the finish line.
Looking quite dashing as he parked the car at the finish line, Chen Yu then took off his helmet and got out of the car.
The extreme sport package provided by the system was just too powerful; he had been operating the car almost subconsciously.
Tong Ming, watching the big screen in front of him, suddenly became excited.
"I really picked the right son-in-law, he can even race cars!"
Tong Ya suddenly twisted her head and glared fiercely at Tong Ming, "If you ever let him do this for you again, I won't let you off easily."
On the other side of the racetrack, Zhao Feng was staring at the big screen with a sullen face.
"Where did this kid come from? Get me a background check on him immediately."
…
The following races seemed rather mundane, at best, they were nothing more than friendly regular matches.
Chen Yu was leisurely back in the kitchen, putting on his chef's outfit as if nothing had happened.
Just then, Tong Ming burst into the kitchen excitedly and grabbed Chen Yu's hand.
"Son-in-law, do you have any idea how much you've saved me? Ask for anything you want!"
Chen Yu had a look of exasperation, "I was just playing around just now. Besides, aside from your daughter, there's nothing else I fancy!"
Tong Ya pouted and looked aggrieved as she pushed Tong Ming away. NovelFiremp yr content
"Husband, are you hurt? That move just now was so dangerous..."
Chen Yu held Tong Ya's hand, "Don't worry, I'm fine!"
In the midst of their conversation, Zhao Feng walked in with a few bodyguards in a very arrogant manner.
"Old man, I didn't expect you to find such a treasure! To think you have a world-class driver."
Tong Ming snorted coldly, "Let me introduce you—this is my son-in-law, and also the future successor to the entire Tong Group."
As he said this, Tong Ming was full of pride, and he pulled Chen Yu forward a bit.
Chen Yu's eyes widened. Tong Ming was very firm when he said this, and Chen Yu couldn't tell if he was joking.
Zhao Feng let out a long sigh, and suddenly, he thought of his own disappointing son.
He didn't do anything worthwhile all day, only fooling around with actresses in the entertainment circle.
Zhao Feng looked at Chen Yu subconsciously.
The guy was handsome and sharp, not to mention he had honed his racing skills to such a level.
Moreover, after participating in the race, he remained unpretentious and calm, cooking here.
Zhao Feng even felt a twinge of jealousy.
"Then I'll congratulate you in advance!" Zhao Feng's words were filled with sourness, "I concede this car race, but in next month's extreme gliding competition, I'll show you what true extreme sports are."
With those words, Zhao Feng left with his bodyguards, clearly disgruntled.
Tong Ming's grip on his cane tightened, "Crafty old fox!"
"Grandpa, what is an extreme gliding competition?" Tuan Tuan asked with a face full of curiosity.
Tong Ming was momentarily at a loss for words. Although he managed extreme sports projects with more than a dozen professional teams, he couldn't clearly describe any of the sports himself.
"Extreme gliding competitions involve wingsuit flying. Broadly speaking, it's a kind of parachuting activity!"
As soon as Chen Yu spoke up, he attracted everyone's attention.
Tong Ming stepped forward in surprise, "You know about this too?"
Chen Yu nodded, "I've dabbled in all extreme sports and have participated in some amateur extreme gliding competitions in the past."
Tuan Tuan suddenly became excited, "Dad, you're so amazing! But how come I never knew about you competing?"
Chen Yu ruffled Tuan Tuan's hair, "That was me going out to earn some extra cash! How could I let you know about that? Besides, these sports are very dangerous. It's better that you didn't know."
