They exchanged a glance and recognized each other.
However, Ningchuan didn't approach to greet, he just lifted his glass from afar.
"Hey, Sophie, what are you lingering for? Are we still racing tonight or not?"
At this moment, a group of young men and women beside Sophie said.
"We're racing, who's afraid?" Sophie sneered, she put down her glass, and followed the group of young men and women walking outside.
As they passed by the bar counter, Sophie hesitated for a moment, pretended to casually tug Ningchuan's clothes, and whispered, "Come out with me for a moment, could you do me a favor?"
Considering Sophie being their own tenant, Ningchuan followed her outside.
On the way to the bar's entrance, they noticed that a row of over a dozen motorcycles had parked there.
Each motorcycle already had two people on it.
The person in front held the motorcycle handlebars, while the person behind hugged the waist of the person in front.
"Sophie, in our race, each car should have a passenger. Let's share a car, you drive, and I'll sit behind you."
At that moment, a greasy-faced young man was already waiting in a bright red heavy-duty motorcycle.
When he saw Sophie approaching, his eyes rolled around, scanning Sophie's slender waist and chest.
It turned out to be a motorcycle racing competition, and the red heavy-duty motorcycle was Sophie's ride.
According to the rules of the race, each rider had to bring a passenger.
On the other motorcycles, there were men riding in the front, and a delicate women tightly holding onto the men's waist in the back.
The man in front of them clearly had ill intentions toward Sophie.
"No need, Li Tao, I found someone already. He can sit behind me."
Sophie gave Li Tao a disgusted look, then turned to Ningchuan and said, "Can you do me a favor? Just sit behind me later, alright?"
"Sophie, where did you find this weakling? You want him to sit behind you? If he can't handle it and throws up all over you later, that would be quite a sight."
Li Tao looked at Ningchuan with jealousy and discontent.
Hearing Li Tao's words, Sophie's eyelid twitched.
She glanced at Ningchuan and calmly asked, "Can you... handle riding without getting sick? Have you been on a roller coaster before?"
"Other than one time when I almost got nauseous from the two big headlights, I haven't gotten sick any other time." Ningchuan replied seriously.
"Headlights? Nauseous?"
Sophie clearly didn't understand, then she waved her hand and said, "Alright, since you can handle it, come on."
After Sophie finished speaking, she swung her long leg and mounted the modified Yamaha heavy-duty motorcycle.
One hand held the handlebars while the other patted the seat behind her. She looked at Ningchuan and said, "Get on quickly."
"Or, how about I drive in the front? You can sit in the back?" Ningchuan suggested.
"Do you know how to? Stop blabbering, get on quickly."
Sophie picked up a helmet and put it on herself, then she threw another helmet to Ningchuan.
"Alright, since you insist on sitting behind... then I'll get on."
Ningchuan put on the helmet, swung his leg over, and sat on the motorcycle behind Sophie.
"Uh..."
In the instant Ningchuan sat down, Sophie felt a jolt from behind. Her face turned red, and her body moved forward slightly.
Ningchuan felt a bit helpless. It wasn't intentional.
Vroom, vroom, vroom...
As if to ease the awkwardness, Sophie in front suddenly twisted the throttle, and the motorcycle immediately emitted thick black smoke.
Li Tao, who was nearby, looked at Ningchuan with envy and jealousy. He wished he could kick Ningchuan off and sit behind Sophie himself.
"Alright, is everyone ready? The race is about to begin!"
At that moment, a tall and stern-faced man rode on a black motorcycle and shouted loudly.
Behind him, a scantily clad woman clung to him, hugging him like an octopus.
"Sophie, where did you find this pale-faced guy? I thought I wouldn't be riding with you. You were going to let Li Tao sit behind you. Looks like Li Tao is out of luck," the exposed woman looked at Sophie and Ningchuan, giggling.
"Yan Fengjiao, how could you betray me, your sister?" Sophie coldly replied.
It turned out that the person who was supposed to sit behind Sophie was her partner, the exposed woman named Yan Fengjiao.
However, Yan Fengjiao had been bribed by Li Tao and suddenly refused to ride with Sophie.
In the motorcycle race, each team had to consist of two people. So, Sophie had no choice but to either withdraw from the race or let Li Tao sit behind her.
This was the plan Yan Fengjiao and Li Tao had schemed.
Unfortunately for them, Ningchuan's sudden appearance disrupted their plan.
Vroom, vroom, vroom...
The lineup of participating motorcycles roared to life. The riders in the front tightly gripped the handlebars with both hands, leaned back, and slightly arched their bodies.
The women sitting behind also tightly hugged the waist of the men in front, preparing for the race.
"You... move back a bit..." Sophie spoke.
Ningchuan politely scooted back by five centimeters.
Sophie then leaned forward, bent at the waist, and prepared herself for the race.
A sexy woman wearing only a bikini swayed her hips and walked to the front of the row of motorcycles. She stood in the middle of the road, holding up a piece of red fabric, perhaps an undergarment, and after swinging it in the air a few times, she suddenly waved it down!
Vroom, vroom, vroom...
The lineup of over a dozen motorcycles instantly shot forward like arrows released from a bow.
"Hold on tight to my waist, don't get thrown off!" Sophie shouted loudly. Under her, the fiery red modified Yamaha shot forward, its speed soaring instantly.
Ningchuan grabbed Sophie's waist with both hands.
Sophie's body instinctively trembled, and the motorcycle swayed. It was fortunate that they didn't crash.
"Focus on riding. I'll let you touch it later," Ningchuan said hurriedly.
"You..." Sophie gritted her teeth, enduring it, and focused on controlling the motorcycle.
Vroom, vroom, vroom...
The motorcycles roared as they sped recklessly on the inner ring road.
Because Sophie had a man sitting behind her, she felt a bit uncomfortable and restrained.
Coupled with her fear of Ningchuan not being able to hold on and getting thrown off, she didn't dare to make any significant movements.
Soon, she was overtaken by other motorcycles and fell behind.
"Sophie! You lost!" the cold-faced man shouted as he passed Sophie, his voice amplified through the specially modified horn on his bike, filled with mockery.
Meanwhile, Yan Fengjiao, who was supposed to be sitting behind Sophie, grinned and intentionally rubbed her chest against the back of the cold-faced man.
"Damn it," Sophie's face darkened, knowing that she had lost.
"You seem really eager to win," Ningchuan suddenly spoke from behind.
"No kidding! I lose, it's 10,000 yuan gone. I win, it's over 100,000 yuan!" Sophie exclaimed.
"Alright, I'll help you," Ningchuan said, and he released his grip on Sophie's waist.
