"What are you doing here?"
Chen Xiangbei asked directly as he opened the door.
To be honest, he wasn't too surprised to see Hoshino Yoshi appear.
After all, the Grand Prix is not only famous in China but can be considered a racing event for Asia and even the whole world.
Among them, Japanese professional racing teams hold the main spots for participation, and whether they are touring car drivers or formula drivers, they all have experience in the Grand Prix racing.
For instance, Sato Takuma from earlier years, Kobayashi Kamui and Nakajima Ikki in recent years, and future prospects Sato Takuma and Iwasa Ayumu.
Hoshino Yoshi is a disciple of Suzuki Aguri, and behind him is Honda's ARTA team, so as long as he hasn't completely given up on his professional career, coming to Australia is very likely.
In comparison, Dong Yuanxi appearing here is theoretically impossible!
"What do you think?"
Dong Yuanxi tilted her head, a playful smile appearing on her face.
This kind of look and demeanor of Dong Yuanxi, Chen Xiangbei had never seen before, as she always maintained an ice queen demeanor at school.
"How would I know?"
Chen Xiangbei shook his head, he wasn't a mind reader.
"Would you believe me if I said I came to watch you race?"
"No."
Chen Xiangbei responded without hesitation.
According to the theory of one of life's three major illusions, "she likes me," Chen Xiangbei felt that even if Dong Yuanxi had some special feelings toward him, considering her family background and genius-level intelligence, it wouldn't lead to an all-consuming love brain scenario typically seen in TV dramas.
Especially with less than two months left until the college entrance exam, her presence here was abnormal!
For Chen Xiangbei's response, Dong Yuanxi frowned slightly.
Then she pouted and replied, "Although the process was filled with unexpected situations, I did come to Australia to watch you race."
"What unexpected situations?"
"The title sponsor for this year's Australian Grand Prix is actually my family's company."
Just like other sports, formula racing also has a title sponsor mechanism.
The difference is that in formula racing, besides the main title sponsor, each race event can have its own title sponsor.
Take the F1 China Grand Prix as an example, in earlier years, the sponsor was Swiss Bank, then it became Heineken, and in recent years, it has been Lenovo.
However, in lower-level formula races, due to limited influence and propagation effects, it's not surprising that there aren't race-specific sponsors, and even the main sponsors follow F1 to serve as a support race.
Only special cup races like the Grand Prix rare have independent sponsor support.
If Chen Xiangbei remembered correctly, the title sponsor for this Australian Grand Prix was Eastern Shipping, which is backed by the famous Dong Family from Hong Kong,
No wonder Ma Minghan always mentions his dad, but becomes obedient in front of Dong Yuanxi, like a submissive puppy; it just shows there's always a bigger fish.
"With the college entrance exam coming up, aren't you worried that being here in Australia will affect your grades?"
"I've already passed the Cambridge University International Assessment Department's entrance exam, and I will be going to study in the United Kingdom in September."
"Impressive."
Chen Xiangbei nodded in appreciation.
It seems he overthought it; someone like Dong Yuanxi, who always ranks at the top, wouldn't be troubled by the college entrance exam.
Even if she were a poor student, with her family's status, studying abroad wouldn't be an issue.
"What about you, will you be a professional driver in the future?"
After Chen Xiangbei asked so many questions, Dong Yuanxi took the opportunity to ask one of her own.
"Yes, racing is my dream."
Just as Chen Xiangbei uttered these words, the roar of racing engines resounded at the starting line of the East Bay Circuit.
Today, these weren't ordinary performance cars, but professional GT racing cars, each with over 400 horsepower and modified for racing, superior to most supercars.
The roar of the engines could hardly be compared with ordinary performance cars; without even seeing these two cars' dynamic racing shapes, just hearing the "fierce" roar, even those who know nothing about cars could feel the surging performance power.
Stimulated by the explosive engine noise, the street racers at the scene were filled with hot blood and fell into a state of excitement.
Usually, it was difficult for them to witness a high-level underground race, but today they could see two professional drivers battling it out, which could be called an eye-opening feast!
At this moment, another very sensually dressed beauty stepped between the two cars to take on the role of a race girl.
She reached into her cropped top, pulled out a lace-edged bra, and waved it passionately.
The appearance of this scene was like adding fuel to the fire, making the already excited scene of racers go even crazier, with cheers and whistles incessantly echoing.
Fast cars and beautiful women are forever the best partners!
"Chen Xiangbei, is street racing always like this?"
Watching the frenzy in front of her, Dong Yuanxi's tone was a bit puzzled; she felt it didn't quite match Chen Xiangbei's temperament.
In Dong Yuanxi's impression, Chen Xiangbei was always calm and composed, and she couldn't imagine him being wild.
"Uh... it depends. Honestly, I don't do much street racing."
To speak frankly, although Chen Xiangbei is very famous in the underground racing scene, he indeed hasn't done much street racing.
"Then how did you earn the title of South Cloud Mountain Car God?"
"You know about that?"
Chen Xiangbei was somewhat surprised, as this title should have been unnoticed outside of the underground racing scene.
