Chapter 18: Challenges

By the time we meet again, it's already dinner time. A couple happened to be sitting on both sides of the long table, Gu San was concentrating on eating as always, but Murong Yuhua raised his head from time to time and looked at him again and again.

Judging from the expression, it is obvious that it has returned to its original state again.

As if sensing his tentative gaze, Gu San finally spoke: "You don't have to be so vigilant. I don't really care that much about what you look like. ”

As if he had been caught, the man immediately turned his head and stuffed a chopstick dish into his mouth. Seeing that there was no more follow-up after she finished saying this, Murong Yuhua was still unwilling and said, "In that case, why do you always look for me to be unhappy?" ”

"I didn't look for you to be unhappy."

"Then what do you call your attitude these days? A friendly meeting? ”

"I'm just telling the truth." Gu San bit the chicken leg and poured another big mouthful of soup, his eyes fell on the food instead of Murong Yuhua's side, "You can't make everyone make a voice and just let them say what you want to hear." When you don't care so much about how other people are, maybe it's okay. ”

"Either way, you're on the other side of me."

"I'm on your side. It's just that you have to think of yourself as two people. Gu San replied, "If you have to say that, then he is a good listener, and I said that you should really pick up all these good habits." Is it so scary to deny yourself? ”

Murong Yuhua put down his chopsticks: "If someone tells you that everything in your life is a joke and fake, isn't it scary?" ”

"I'd rather someone told me in my past life that everything was fake, a joke. Of course, that should be the worst joke. ”

Murong Yuhua completely lost his appetite, he sat on the chair and looked at Gu San across the long table: "Maybe you're right." But whether you call this a protection mechanism, or whatever, I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. Is it wrong to want to make your life happier? Everyone does this, why do I have to be the special one? Nothing else helps me except to make it more annoying. ”

Gu San picked up the bowl and raised her head to pull the food, and after she finished eating, she didn't forget to hand the bowl to her aunt and bring another bowl. By the way, I also asked for an extra soup. Murong Yuhua impatiently tapped the table with his knuckles, and Gu San spoke without hurry: "It's up to you to decide what is right or wrong." I only decide what I like. ”

"You're trying to force me to face this."

"What are these? The truth? It is you who confront the truth. The aunt handed the rice to Gu San, watched the two arguing, shrunk her shoulders and hurriedly exited the restaurant. Gu San said: "I have said many times that I don't care about these things you care about. It's you who thinks about it over and over again, qualitatively defines yourself, and looks for answers. ”

Murong Yuhua had already left his seat and walked out of the door at this time. He shook his head and sneered, "I thought you would be like a hero, at least have the courage to admit it." I didn't expect you to be like that. ”

Gu San glanced at him in confusion, not knowing what style he had arranged his role in.

The man pretended to be mysterious and snorted, stood outside the door, just in the backlight, and opened his hands: "The truth is important, but the more important thing, from a practical point of view, is the silence of the truth." ”

His hand slowly lowered, and he turned his head back to a carefully calculated angle, and continued to speak.

"It's not what I said, it's Huxley."

Then he left a lonely and declining back, pacing into the afterimage of the sunset.

Gu San felt goosebumps all over his body reappear, and he didn't answer for a long time, and finally spoke: "Don't you eat it?" I didn't eat that order, I ate it. ”

A certain president who was walking in the corridor as a catwalk almost stumbled when he heard this, but finally sped up his pace angrily and disappeared from Gu San's sight.

When Gu San was about to finish eating, Zhu Li walked in with a letter: "Madam, Miss An asked me to pass this on to you." ”

It's quite retro, and the envelope is stamped with a blood-red lotus seal. Gu San wiped his mouth and tore the letter open, An Lian's words were written like dragons and phoenixes, and the summary was one sentence-

"See you at ten o'clock tonight, see you in Tianhe Mountain, I want to race with you!"

The envelope was quite thoughtful to put a map in.

Zhu Li helped to read the contents of the letter, and couldn't help but ask: "Madam, are you going to go at night?" ”

"Don't you sleep at night and go out for a ride?"

Gu San threw the letter on the table, helped his aunt clean up the table, and didn't look back to the room, Zhu Li glanced down, found that there was still content on the back, reached out to take it, and read it out loud: "As long as you win, guns and delicacies are as you choose, there is nothing in this world that I can't buy." Even tanks can be bought and given to you as long as you want. ”

Gu San's footsteps stopped.

Zhu Li unfolded the hidden fold at the bottom and continued to read: "But if you lose, Murong Yuhua will be mine." ”

"Deal!" Gu Saner walked back without saying a word and took the letter back in his hand, not forgetting to ask Zhu Li, "An Lian is a good talker, right?" ”

"Based on years of observation by her subordinates, Miss An disdains lying."

"That's good." Gu San folded the challenge book and stuffed it into his pocket along with the map, "If you win, maybe you will have a tank to play, and if you lose, you won't lose." ”

"If you lose, our boss will go to Miss An."

"You're right." Gu San seemed to be a little hesitant, who expected that the words blurted out after a while were, "What if she repents and wants my motorcycle instead?" ”

Zhu Li said: "Miss An should still think that our boss is more important than a motorcycle." ”

"Just don't move my motorcycle."

Gu San finished speaking and left. Zhu Li looked at her back and asked, "Do you need to tell the boss?" ”

The woman waved her hand casually and threw down a sentence: "Whatever you want." ”

At ten o'clock in the evening, Gu San arrived at the foot of the mountain at the agreed place five minutes early. Tianhe Mountain is located in the suburbs, and there is an ancient pagoda on the top of the mountain, and the sidewalk and roadway are divided into two steering wheels up the mountain. To the south of the tower is a plaza for pedestrians, and to the north is a parking lot. The mountain is more than 500 meters above sea level, and the longest cross-country distance can reach 100 kilometers depending on the route.

The night is thick, and from here, you can see the city lights shining in the distance. This scenery is also a little unfamiliar to Gu San. Darkness at night can bring safety, and turning on the lights will only invite more danger in the dark. She leaned against the side of the motorcycle, wearing a black leather jacket that seemed to blend in with the night, bought a new pack of cigarettes and smoked a few cigarettes, and while waiting, a few cigarette butts had fallen at her feet.

Juri stood behind Gu San, holding the Pad Loyalty Record. Gu San was a little strange: "Why did you come along?" ”

"My boss paid me overtime and told me to pay attention to your movements."

Gu San raised his eyebrows and handed him a cigarette: "Do you smoke?" ”

Juri refused: "Madam, I don't smoke. ”

"Okay."

She put the cigarette case back in her pocket and slowly exhaled a puff of white mist. From the dark night, there was the roar of the motor, Gu San dusted off his cigarette ash, and looked at the winding mountain road in front of him, with car lights coming around, like a glowing river flowing slowly.

It was a convoy that came, the bright red Maserati that An Lian has always liked, three in a row, but this time it was slightly different from usual. This time, the team ended up with a pink GT-R car.

Gu San threw the cigarette at his feet and stepped on it, a little interested, stood up straight and watched the convoy quickly drive to the front of a sudden brake, and stopped to the side in turn, so that the last pink car could stop in front of Gu San like the moon in front of Gu San.

The headlights were dazzling, and the driver's seat of the car was aimed at Gu San's side. After the car stopped, the window facing Gu San's side slowly rolled down, An Lian chewed gum, and wore a pair of exaggerated rhinestone silver-gray Harley-style sunglasses on her face. She stretched out her hand and pushed the eyes on the bridge of her nose down slightly, and her eyes swept over Gu San: "Yo, here it is." ”

Gu Sanzhi didn't care about this little girl's provocative attitude, but asked very sincerely: "I won, is there a tank?" ”

An Lian's aura that had just been brewing was instantly broken on her word "tank". She had no choice but to follow her words and answer: "If I win, Murong Yuhua will be mine!" ”

"First of all, are there any tanks?"

"Then don't you care who Murong Yuhua will belong to?"

Gu San shrugged his shoulders: "It's easier to define who the tank belongs to, and it's hard to say who Murong Yuhua belongs to, after all, he will run around." ”

“…… Is that the point? ”

"You're right." Gu San nodded in agreement, and then said seriously, "It's still the tank that is more important." ”

An Lian pulled the car door and stepped on a pair of exaggerated pink high-top sneakers and got out of the car. She changed her usual sweet and lovely look, wore dreadlocks, and wore this tight sequin dress, which just outlined her curvaceous and sexy figure. She took off her sunglasses, leaned against the car door, chewed gum in her mouth, and raised her chin in Okitani: "Let's say okay first, I'll drive you on a motorcycle, don't say that I bullied you, you agreed to the game yourself." If you win, I'll give you whatever you want to eat and buy. ”

Gu 30 was very straightforward: "You can't win me, why do you want to give me a gift?" ”

"Who says I can't win against you? Don't underestimate people there, do you think I'm usually stupid and stupid, but I'm really stupid, and you can drag race? An Lian's eyes slowly projected a certain perseverance, her long legs had straddled back into the car, she threw her middle finger towards Gu San, the gum blew a bubble, and with the sound of breaking, she restarted the engine, "Bibi said again." ”

Gu San took off the helmet strap, buckled it and stepped on the motorcycle: "Say, what route." ”

"The longest cross-country distance of Tianhe Mountain is 100 kilometers, but it is too complicated to run like that, so we will go around the mountain, and it is exactly 100 kilometers from the mountain to here, and you can see the map." An Lian added, "Don't worry, I want to compare with you above board, I won't mess with the map." ”

The group of bodyguards brought by An Lian drew a starting line with lime powder not far away, and set up a luminous timing sign on the side. Gu San put down his helmet and drove a motorcycle to follow An Lian behind the white line.

Zhu Li didn't know when he walked to the headlights with the starting pistol and the starting flag in his hand, An Lian sat in the car and blew a bubble again, and her perfectly finished nails closed the window.

Gu San bent down, twisting the handles with both hands, the roar of the engine vibrating her nerves. The entire mountain seems to be awakened by the motors of two cars.

"Prepare ——!"

Juri raised his hand high.

With the sound of the starting gun, the flag in his hand waved downward.

"Running ——!"

The two cars ejected like lightning in an instant, rolling up a gust of wind and waves, and disappeared in front of the mountain road in the blink of an eye with the sound of engines.
