ABHL 06

Chapter – 06

The club often held races late at night. If it were located in the city center, there would definitely be complaints. Besides, there wasn’t enough space downtown to convert into a racetrack.

Lin Zhuo tilted his head toward the man beside him and suggested,
“Brother Yu, why don’t you take her home? It’s late, and it’s not safe for a girl to be waiting outside alone.”

Chu Yihan silently gave him a thumbs-up in her heart. His suggestion was exactly what she wanted. All her earlier buildup had been for this moment—now she didn’t even need to ask herself.

Her gaze fell on the man beside her. Under the moonlight, his figure stood tall and distinguished.

The muscles on his arms had smooth yet defined lines—the kind of subtle muscle that wasn’t overly bulky but clearly powerful, exactly her type.

The overly exaggerated inverted-triangle “bodybuilder” type would just make her feel greasy and intimidated.

She hadn’t looked closely before, but she now noticed a tattoo on his forearm. Because of the lighting, she couldn’t make out the design.

Jiang Yu was about to refuse, but when he saw her slightly curved fox-like eyes, her gaze shimmering like melting spring water—clear yet alluring—

If he refused, it would almost feel like committing some unforgivable crime.

He swallowed the words he had been about to say and replied lazily,
“Does my car look like it can fit three people?”

Chu Yihan glanced at the sports car beside him and pursed her lips. She had forgotten—it was a two-seater.

In a soft voice she said,
“You guys go ahead. I’ll wait a bit longer. I should be able to call a designated driver.”

Jiang Yu glanced at the car behind her and asked casually,
“Why don’t you call your driver to pick you up?”

Anyone who could afford a Bentley must come from a well-off family. It would be strange not to have a driver.

Chu Yihan paused. He was sharper than she expected—he could even guess whether her family had a driver.

“My driver is already asleep at this hour. I don’t want to disturb his rest.”
This part was true.

Jiang Yu looked at her with a half-smile.
“Sounds like being your driver is pretty easy. You must be a very considerate boss.”

“…” She suspected he was being sarcastic. With a straight face she asked,
“Do you want to apply?”

Jiang Yu let out a light scoff. As the first Chinese driver to win an F1 championship, she really dared to suggest he apply as a chauffeur.

Lin Zhuo couldn’t help laughing. Who would dare hire Brother Yu as a driver?

But the moment he felt a slightly cold gaze from beside him, he immediately stopped laughing.

He looked toward a white car.
“Brother Yu, you could drive this one. It can fit everyone.”

Jiang Yu raised an eyebrow and mocked,
“You’re pretty good at making arrangements. Why don’t you take her?”

“I’d love to, but I don’t have a driver’s license.”
If he could drive, this mission of taking a beautiful girl home definitely wouldn’t fall to Brother Yu.

Jiang Yu’s expression remained calm as he extended his left hand.
“Give me the keys.”

Today he would just do a good deed—consider it building up good karma.

“Oh.” Chu Yihan immediately took out the car keys from her bag and handed them to him.
“Thank you for the trouble.”

At the moment he took the keys, their fingertips briefly touched.

A jolt like electricity passed between them.

Their hands carried different temperatures. Chu Yihan’s hands were always cold, even in the scorching summer heat.

So when she touched Jiang Yu’s warm fingertips, a sudden tingling sensation spread through her.

Her hand dropped to her side, and the fingers that had touched him unconsciously clenched the fabric of her dress.

Jiang Yu hadn’t expected that either. His breathing seemed to grow faint and hurried. Pretending to stay calm, he opened the driver’s door and got into the car.

Seeing this, Chu Yihan smiled. The man who looked so wild and unruly was actually so easy to embarrass.

And she was very satisfied with his reaction.

She naturally opened the passenger door and sat in the front seat. It was her car—there was no way she would sit in the back.

Chapter 5: Because I Like It

Jiang Yu started the car and glanced at her.
“Where do you live?”

Chu Yihan didn’t answer. Instead, she asked,
“Do you two live together?”

Hearing that, Lin Zhuo quickly explained, worried she might misunderstand his relationship with Jiang Yu.

“No, I’m still in university. I work part-time at the club when I don’t have classes.”

“Brother Yu is planning to take me back to school.”

Chu Yihan nodded, not surprised. He did look like a college student—still a bit youthful.

“Then let’s drop you off at school first.”

She had never attended university in China or lived in a dorm, so she didn’t know about curfews. But she didn’t really care.

Dropping him off first would give her time alone with Jiang Yu.

Lin Zhuo didn’t refuse.
“Brother Yu, then take me back to school first.”

Jiang Yu responded with a casual “Mm.” He really did feel like a driver now.

“By the way, I haven’t asked your name yet.” The person in the back introduced himself first.
“My name is Lin Zhuo.”

“Chu Yihan.”

While driving, Jiang Yu nodded slightly. It was a nice name.

Yihan—like clear water.

Lin Zhuo was about to introduce the driver.
“He is—”

“I know,” Chu Yihan interrupted.
“Jiang Yu.”

When the man in question heard his name spoken from her lips, he froze slightly. Her voice was pleasant—soft and melodious, like smooth silk brushing over fine sand.

Lin Zhuo felt his introduction had become unnecessary.
“Well, that makes sense. Everyone who came to watch the race tonight came for Brother Yu.”

Chu Yihan turned her head to look at the man beside her.
“I watched your race tonight. It was amazing. You’re really impressive.”

Jiang Yu had heard praise like this many times before, but hearing it from her now gave him an inexplicable sense of excitement.

Lin Zhuo didn’t think much of it.
“Tonight’s race wasn’t even that impressive. Brother Yu didn’t use his full strength. When he competes internationally, that’s when it’s truly spectacular—the kind that makes your blood boil.”
