02

My heart is tightly knotted. She is only 18 years old, yet her frail shoulders bear the weight of a family and the burden of responsibility

Sun Qing drove her car, recklessly running through three red lights, and hurried to the hospital

Who helped you with this

Sun Qing turned to look at me and said, "'Speed and Passion' gave race car drivers a dream, but for those of us who live in the shadows, reality is far more brutal than the movies. The bravery and so-called camaraderie do not exist on the real racetrack. I have witnessed death and seen many people lose a part of their bodies; I fear that I too will become like that in the future..." As she spoke the last words, Sun Qing trembled, covering her face and weeping uncontrollably.

As she spoke the last words, Sun Qing trembled, covering her face and weeping uncontrollably

The bald man called to say that my grandmother has fallen ill and is now in the hospital

Sun Qing shook her head, gently stroking my swollen face, and said apologetically: "Ayin, thank you. Someone has already helped me with the surgery fee, so please return this money to Mu Lianru. Don't be so foolish next time."

"Qingqing, what happened?"

Sun Qing said tearfully: "This job pays a lot and quickly, and I have gotten used to it..."

The bald man walked over with a smile, hands behind his back, circling around me twice, and said: "This girl is really beautiful up close, I like her"

Sun Qing retorted without any politeness: "Baldy, your approach is all wrong. I just brought her here to have some fun. Don't lead the young girl astray." Sun Qing had an air of someone much older, forgetting that her age was actually quite similar to mine

I rushed into the dance floor, pulling Mu Lianru to a quiet place

It is him. Sun Qing's gaze passed over my shoulder and directed towards behind me

Sun Qing was mistaken; Zhuang Li and the Su Jingnian before her cannot be compared, as both individuals are equally outstanding, yet their personalities and appearances differ, making any comparison meaningless

Upon arriving at the hospital, the bald man was already waiting at the entrance. As he led us inside, he said: "Your grandmother has a cerebral hemorrhage and needs to undergo a craniotomy, which will cost 50,000 yuan"

I nodded slightly, as a form of greeting

"Qingqing, you..." I circled around her twice, feeling it was too incredible.

A bald man with a mouthful of yellow teeth smiled and said, "Sun Xiaoniu, why did you bring such a beautiful girl? Is she a gift for me?"

Sun Qing's home is located in the old town, an area awaiting renovation, characterized by decay and dilapidation. Whenever it rains, there is always a deep accumulation of water at their doorstep, emitting a foul odor.

Sun Qing gently pressed on the back of my hand and comforted me, saying, "Those people may seem quite bad, but they are not as bad as they appear."

Sun Qing suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon, her whole body going limp. If I hadn't supported her, she would likely have fallen to the ground

Later, Sun Qing said that when she went to borrow money from her relatives, she encountered countless disdainful looks, and only Su Jingnian was willing to lend her money. She and Su Jingnian used to be neighbors and got along very well. Although Su Jingnian moved away later, they had some brief contact. A long time later, Sun Qing said that when Su Jingnian appeared, she felt as if the entire world had burst into colorful fireworks. What she did not know was that when the fireworks faded, the dark sky remained desolate.

Sun Qing whispered, "Don't take these rough men seriously; they are usually just being brash with their words."

I have always been someone who uses as much as I have, and I really do not have much money on me

Sun Qing introduced to the boy: "This is my good friend Ding Lanyin"

Another burst of laughter erupted from the crowd

Some of those individuals were dressed in racing suits, with helmets set aside. Most of them appeared to be rather carefree, looking somewhat unruly.

I could not help but hold the frail Sun Qing, feeling a surge of compassion.

Just as Sun Qing had not yet fully enjoyed such tranquility, her phone suddenly rang. She answered the call, and her expression turned serious

She candidly stated: "Like those people www.hetushu.com.com, I am a professional underground racer, earning money through competitions"

With a crisp sound of "pa," Mu Lianru unhesitatingly slapped my face, the clear sound echoing continuously.

Qingqing, I truly did not expect your driving skills to be so excellent. You might just be the next leading lady in the next installment of "Fast and Furious" I joked with a smile

Such a humble tone was almost akin to kneeling before her

Although I know that Mu Lianru will definitely not give me any money, I must go and plead with her. If I can obtain 50,000 yuan, I would not mind kneeling for three days and nights or enduring a few beatings

Sun Qing tugged at the bald man's arm and anxiously asked, "Can I be scheduled to compete soon?"

At this point, Sun Qing finally broke into a smile. Hand in hand, she leaned on my shoulder, and amidst the lush green mountains and clear waters, our bond grew even deeper

"Don't say that anymore... don't say that..." Such words from Sun Qing are truly heart-wrenching. "Don't compete anymore, just find any job..."

When I hurried to the hospital with fifty thousand yuan in hand, Sun Qing and the bald man were sitting on the bench outside the operating room

With red eyes, I said weakly, "I will go back and ask Mu Lianru..."

I let out a chuckle. Sitting in the car, I felt a bit anxious, but when I saw Sun Qing skillfully shifting gears, pressing the accelerator, and suddenly accelerating after driving out of the city, the scenery on both sides rushed past at high speed, and I almost screamed.

Seeing Sun Qing in such a state of despair, I turned and ran to the activity center to find Mu Lianru

Thank heavens, she is here

Mu Lianru asked with a displeased expression: "What do you want from me?"

The moment my feet touched the ground, I felt my heart return to its rightful place. Throughout this journey, I was filled with anxiety; several times, the car nearly collided with others. I covered my mouth to stifle any screams, fearing it would distract her while driving

For you, I am willing to do anything. Take this money.

Sun Qing also ignored him and said to me, "Wait for me for a moment"

If Zhuang Li is the black mandala, then the boy before me resembles a lotus that emerges untainted from the mud. He is dressed in a white shirt, layered with a black sleeveless knit sweater, and wears light blue jeans along with a pair of brown sneakers. The boy's hair is a beautiful chestnut color, evenly toned. His face is exceptionally fair, and his eyes are even clearer than Ding Xuan's, evoking a sense of reverence. More importantly, the person before me possesses an innate noble aura, akin to that of a prince.

I will get straight to the point: "Could you lend me 50,000 yuan? I really have an urgent need."

She took her phone and hurried back while carrying her helmet

The bald man shook his head and said, "Recently, there have been no clients"

Sun Qing said slowly: "At first, I was just mingling in society, and later I met a bald man, which led me to interact with those race car drivers. Eventually, I realized that there was a lot of money to be made from racing, so I chose to pursue this path myself, but..." She paused and continued, "This path only goes forward; the only way to exit is through death."

I kindly kept you here, and this is how you intend to repay me? You actually dare to threaten me?

I covered my swollen face, my eyes red, and said in a low voice: "I really have no way out... please, help me... I don't want to use this matter to threaten you... I will repay you soon..."

Following Sun Qing through a series of twists and turns, I unexpectedly arrived at a repair shop, where a strong smell of engine oil permeated the air. Frowning, I followed her into the basement of the repair shop.

I know you have it. If you do not lend it to me, I will inform Ding Xuan about your affair with someone else

He smiled and took a few steps forward, asking: "Ding Lanyin... have we met before?"

"I have no money." Mu Lianru said coldly, looking elsewhere

Thank you... thank you... thank you... I bowed while expressing my gratitude in a disjointed manner

The bald man was displeased and said, "Which of your eyes saw me behaving indecently?"

My face is flushed with embarrassment, and I wish I could hide away.

Sun Qing laughed "gigglingly" as she parked the car on the vacant land by the river. We sat on the stones by the river, looking at each other and grinning foolishly.

The crowd erupted in laughter, and someone shouted mockingly: "A toad cannot eat swan meat."

She saw me holding the money, half of her face was red and swollen, and she asked with concern: "Did Mu Lianru do this?"

She whistled and said in a casual tone, "Beautiful lady, would you like to go for a ride?"

The bald man replied impatiently, "Am I not allowed to take a few glances even if I can't eat swan meat?"

Hearing the last two words, my heart was filled with unease; Sun Qing is still so young

I stared wide-eyed at everything before me. There were many modified cars on display, looking quite impressive. A group of people had gathered together, seemingly engaged in gambling. The originally lively crowd fell silent the moment they saw me and Sun Qing, all eyes turning towards me.

Sun Qing leaned closer and whispered, "This person is named Su Jingnian, and he is not inferior to Zhuang Li."

Upon seeing me, she raised her smile and said, "Ayin, your timing is truly fortuitous"

I turned around and saw a handsome young man who was smiling.

Mu Lianru took a deep breath and said coldly, "There will be no next time"

Upon hearing this number, Sun Qing paused in her steps, her eyes gradually reddening. With a pale face, she looked at the bald man and asked in a trembling voice, "Do you have that much money?"

I looked at her in astonishment, dressed in a stylish racing outfit, with a mouth wide enough to hold an egg

Sun Qing nodded repeatedly, with a somewhat forced smile, and said: "Of course, I still wish to live a long life, marry the one I love, and have many children and grandchildren"

Where are you planning to go

I anxiously grasped Sun Qing's hand and hid behind her

She continued to choke back tears, saying: "I often feel very close to death. Many times during competitions, just a few seconds of difference and I could have brushed past death, not to mention poorly adjusted parts or a small mistake, any of which could cost me my life..."

Although I have not witnessed the race with my own eyes, I can imagine the danger involved. It is truly unexpected that Sun Qing, as a girl, would choose to become a race car driver.

I harbor countless secrets within my heart, yet I do not know where to begin. Every time I see Ding Xuan's smiling face, and then see Mu Lianru, I feel quite uneasy

Sun Qing, while studying, has long been mingling in society. She works tirelessly to earn money, striving to provide her grandmother with a good life. In my heart, Sun Qing is like a cactus in the desert, thriving even in harsh conditions

Tears flowed down my face uncontrollably

I carefully wiped her tears and comforted her, saying: "Then you promise me that you will be careful."

It is truly too stimulating

Sun Qing was abandoned by her parents at a young age and grew up with her grandmother. Her grandmother's health is poor, and the burden of the entire family falls on her. Compared to her, I am fortunate; at least I do not have to worry about making a living

How did you get into this line of work

During the weekend, I dared not stay at home as the atmosphere was too maddening, so I had no choice but to seek out Sun Qing

Sun Qing desperately clutched my hand and, with a sobbing tone, asked: "Where am I supposed to find this 50,000 yuan?"

Sun Qing removed her helmet, tidied her disheveled hair, and calmly said, "My skills are not considered very good among that group of people"

For a moment, I found myself unable to speak. When I finally came to my senses, I was still filled with regret, realizing that I had been staring at him blankly, and with my face so flushed, I must have looked quite unattractive.

Sun Qing leaned closer to me and said mysteriously, "I will take you there, and you will know."

After speaking, Sun Qing went to a side room, changed her clothes, and came out holding her helmet

When I went to Sun Qing's house, she happened to be leaving

I shook my head in confusion. If I had seen him before, I would certainly have a deep impression. It is clear that this is our first meeting.

I couldn't help but joke, "Only sows can have hundreds of offspring."
