Chapter 97 - Self-Rescue Manual of a Villainess

The motorcycle was shuttling swiftly on the road, like a bolt of lightning, making it impossible to capture its figure. The sharp and scorching roar of the engine, along with the sensation of its high-speed chase, was exhilarating. As Nan Yin listened to the whistling wind beside her, she glanced at her opponent in the rearview mirror. Her lips curled slightly. The sound of the engine was truly pleasant, but it also indicated the fast pace of the vehicle. As she sat on the motorcycle, the trees receded faster and faster, and her vision became increasingly blurred. At the bend, she executed a beautiful drift, preventing the trailing vehicles from overtaking her. Meanwhile, Jiang Mi, in the spectator stands, could only see the motorcycle dashing through the road like lightning. The friction of the tires on the road surface sparked fiery flashes, particularly during the motorcycle's high-speed chase. Simultaneously, the motorcycle’s footrest was nearing the road, an unattainable target for any ordinary vehicle. Suddenly, Jiang Mi let out a cry of alarm when she saw a modified racing car approaching Nan Yin aggressively. The sight of the car accelerating made it seem like it was about to crush Nan Yin. At this critical moment, she witnessed her leader performing a high-difficulty maneuver—she deftly maneuvered her motorcycle, almost parallel to the ground, rushing up the side of the mine track. Consequently, the modified car behind crashed into the barrier and veered out of the track, flipping over outside. It barely stopped spinning 360 degrees, leaving the driver likely in a bad condition. As the instigator of these events, Nan Yin simply cast a glance at the perilous modified car and moved on. In this place, Nan Yin was not afraid of taking lives, and besides, the driver was not necessarily doomed. Although it was clear that recovering in a few days or even half a month was unlikely. For these racing enthusiasts, racing took precedence over everything. Nearly every day, there were bloody incidents on the racetrack. There were no rules here; the ultimate goal was to get their racing cars to the finish line by any means necessary. Moreover, the modified car that had targeted Nan Yin today was the first to do so. Even if an accident occurred as a result, no one would blame Nan Yin. With numerous close calls, Nan Yin won the championship in this race almost recklessly. After parking her motorcycle near the finish line, she received the same cheers and applause as Jiang Mi did. As for the challenger with the modified car? Nobody cared about him. Perhaps at this moment, he could be found in some black clinic near atelier. "Miss, you are truly amazing!" "Ohhhh! Do it again! Do it again!" In comparison to the seasoned racer Jiang Mi, Nan Yin, who had just showcased her skills on the racetrack today, was undoubtedly a newly emerging dark horse, making her even more appealing and likable. However, just as Nan Yin enjoyed the long-unheard cheers and praises, the orange-haired girl squeezed out of the crowd and almost ran to Nan Yin, her hands frantically tugging and pulling, her expression almost on the verge of tears. "Leader... are you alright? That jerk just now..." Tears were welling up in Jiang Mi's eyes. No one knew how anxious she was when she saw the jerk driving towards their leader. At that moment, Jiang Mi almost grabbed a knife and went after that jerk. "I'm fine, of course. After all, Jiang Mi races here every day without any incidents. How could something happen to me?" Nan Yin gave Jiang Mi a knowing look, before heading straight to her motorcycle, which now belonged to her. "... Sister?" Jiang Mi stared blankly as Nan Yin sat on the motorcycle, already putting her helmet back on. "Sister! You can't ride again, please, your heart can't take it!" Realizing the situation, Jiang Mi rushed over and hugged Nan Yin, her voice filled with worry and pleading. But Nan Yin remained unmoved. She glanced at the bottle Jiang Mi had just dropped and her beloved car. "Yes, I don't have a robust body like Jiang Mi. Drinking and driving, I have no fear of accidents." "After all, I have no other way to secretly come this far to participate in a street race at midnight... right?" A new race eventually began, but the surrounding buzz was out of place for the two girls. Jiang Mi simply stared at the snowy-haired girl straddling the motorcycle. Finally, tears welled up in the orange-haired girl's eyes, and teardrops fell to the ground one by one. Nan Yin noticed a trace of compassion in her wine-red eyes, which was quickly concealed. "I'm sorry... I was wrong... " Jiang Mi wiped her tears and apologized to Nan Yin, appearing extremely disheveled for a moment. "Wrong? What did you do wrong?" Nan Yin remained unyielding, knowing that crying would not solve the problem, and she also knew Jiang Mi was not the type to cry in times of trouble. "I... I shouldn't have secretly come here to race..." Jiang Mi immediately admitted her mistake, her eyes reddened, resembling an injured little creature, making one want to hold her tight and comfort her. "Is that all?" Nan Yin's tone softened slightly, but in her eyes, the orange-haired girl's mistake was not just about that. "And... and what else? What else..." Jiang Mi sniffed and then cautiously spoke, "I shouldn't have kept it a secret from you." Nan Yin sighed and was about to point out the real mistake of the girl in front of her when some of Jiang Mi's fangirls crowded over. Perhaps having noticed Jiang Mi crying, they all seemed a bit irritated. They immediately started to accuse Nan Yin, but before they could finish, Jiang Mi turned to them, her voice rising, "Do you understand where I'm coming from? She's my sister! I'll say whatever she wants me to say." The fangirls: ??? Embarrassment was written all over the faces of these fangirls. They all awkwardly bowed ninety degrees to Nan Yin. "Hello, sister!" These cute and silly little girls melted Nan Yin's heart. She wanted to laugh, but considering the current situation, she had to maintain a serious demeanor. "Um, who are you all?" Nan Yin looked at these little fangirls, all dressed up as racing enthusiasts; were they from the car enthusiasts' club? As expected, the supposed leader of the little group immediately and somewhat proudly revealed the club badge on her chest. "That's right, big sister. We are all members of the car enthusiasts' club." Upon hearing that these girls were all members of the car enthusiasts' club, Nan Yin arched an eyebrow. She was familiar with this club; it was the first minor plot that Su Xiao Yu encountered in the original work, triggered by Nan Xi— the leader of the club had long set her eyes on Nan Yin's little sister. Later, even after Nan Yin was killed by Su Xiao Yu, he still harassed her and even attempted to abduct her, only to be eliminated by the righteous male lead in the end. Setting aside Nan Yin's foreknowledge of the plot, she had encountered this faction before. During the attack on the old factory in the past, Nan Yin had used her affiliation with the car enthusiasts' club to bluff the esper there. Additionally, some troublemakers who came to the factory later were also members of the car enthusiasts' club. "Big sister, your driving skills just now were really good. Can you teach me?" Meanwhile, those little fangirls had already recognized Nan Yin as the motorcycle rider who had just showcased her skills. One of the fangirls, who had developed into a fan of Nan Yin, spoke eagerly. At this moment, Nan Yin was lost in thought, and before she knew it, these fangirls had become Jiang Mi's little fans, too. However, Nan Yin was no longer concerned with these trivial matters. After a few perfunctory words, she pulled Jiang Mi to an unoccupied area near the racetrack. Drawing Jiang Mi into the nearby alley, Nan Yin looked around before turning to Jiang Mi, who was timidly watching her. “Why are you looking at me like that all of a sudden?” Nan Yin couldn't help but laugh, but her tone remained cold. Tonight, she had to come clean with Jiang Mi. "Leader, I really know I was wrong. Please, can you not forbid me from coming here in the future..." The orange-haired girl timidly spoke. But before she could finish her sentence, she was angrily interrupted by Nan Yin. "You still want to come here in the future? You want to race here again?!" Nan Yin's tone was not at all good at this moment. She was genuinely upset that Jiang Mi, at this point, still hasn't realized the seriousness of the situation, let alone considered continuing to race.
