Chapter 33
Since someone was out to sabotage her father, then they couldn’t possibly take the money. However, since she had managed to get her hands on a solid car, she now found ways to make money.
However, it would be inconvenient for a girl.
After her meal and after Ye Yunji had gone back to his room, Ye Yunxi quietly stole into the shed and found a set of her brother’s old clothes. Then, she went back to her room.
“Big brother, I’m revising my homework, so please don’t bother me!”
“Fine!”
Hearing the reply from his room, Ye Yunxi grinned and locked her door.
She dug around the first aid kit and found some bandages. She bound her small chest tightly. A broad-stripe male style t-shirt, crop turnip pants, and a black hooded cardigan on top. Ye Yunxi glanced at herself in the mirror.
Quite androgynous, except that her hair was too long.
Crouching low, she ran into her father’s room and stole a wig that he used for filming, some accessories, and a makeup kit. She went back to her room and spent a bit of time in front of the mirror.
After a moment, her lengthy hair became shoulder length. Ye Yunxi tied her hair back in a dashing ponytail. Her pretty face now had a hint of masculinity to it after a bit of makeup. Her arched eyebrows became sword-like, making her look adequately robust.
Ye Yunxi looked into the mirror, rubbed her chin and grinned.
Perfect!
At the end of Millstone Mountain Road, rows of luxury cars lined up with their high beams on, casting demonic shadows on the ground. The young men and women gathered here, swaying their soft and nimble bodies to the music as the passion and hot-bloodedness of their youth flew high like banners in the air.
The moment the luxury car reared into view, it attracted the attention of many. As Ye Yunxi got out of the car, the girls had their eyes fixed on her.
Her tied hair sat at the back of her head like a full and fluffy rabbit’s tail. At her chest sat a skull crucifix accessory, and there were matching rings on her fingers. A tattoo peeked out from under her sleeve—it was of a cross entwined by blood-red spider lilies.
Several girls sized up this stranger fervently, giggling as they whispered to each other, making no attempts to hide the enthusiasm in their eyes.
Ye Yunxi did not show the slightest trace of nervousness as she authoritatively sauntered them to greet them.
“What’s the bet tonight?”
She spoke with a sluggish expression.
The girls laughed heartily and asked, “500 thousand, stud. Are you in?”
“The money’s not important. What about a kiss if I win?”
Ye Yunxi lifted her gaze lazily, looking extremely wicked.
This young man knew how to flirt even at this age! It sent the girls’ hearts pounding.
She bantered with the girls for a bit until she had the information she needed. Ye Yunxi then roamed towards the car park.
There were many luxury cars parked here, all to take part in the race. They didn’t allow strangers into the race, so participants had to get a recommendation.
Ye Yunxi took her time to size up these good-looking guys who came for the race. She halted in front of one of the cars.
She heard from the bunch of girls that this wasn’t a bad car, but it seemed like the car owner looked rather crappy.
That wasn’t an issue, though. If the owner weren’t crappy, how would she make her money?
“What’s up?”
The car owner approached, looking at Ye Yunxi with a raised eyebrow.
The wicked-looking youth turned around slowly and then realized that she knew this car owner.
It was Sun Chao, her classmate and newly-adopted little brother.
Ye Yunxi scratched her chin. It looked like the guy didn’t see through her disguise. The makeup was perfect!
“How many times have you won the race here?”
Ye Yunxi came straight to the point.
Sun Chao paused for a moment, not expecting such a direct question from this newbie.
Obviously embarrassed, he said, “Not… not even once…”
