Rebirth: Pampered by My Children and Husband-Chapter 118 - : Utterly Convinced That He Is Ji Yanli

Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Utterly Convinced That He Is Ji Yanli

The engine’s roar rose in their ears.

Lin Xu snapped back from her memories, her gaze stealthily glancing over at Xie Changyan next to her, a smile involuntarily curving upwards at the corner of her mouth, as she silently laughed to herself.

Every one of his actions was so similar to Ji Yanli’s, yet why couldn’t he be the same person?

She sighed internally, puzzling over it without understanding.

Suddenly.

Two racing cars overtook them from behind, their shrill and grating brake sounds assaulting their eardrums, stopping across the track a few hundred meters in front of them, effectively blocking their way.

Two men got out of the cars, flicking their fingers provokingly at Xie Changyan.

Xie Changyan’s eyebrows lifted slightly, and he said to Lin Xu in the co-driver’s seat, “Don’t get out of the car,” before opening the car door and getting out himself.

“Young Master Xie, last time you won so easily, do you dare to race with us again?” a man with flowing red hair challenged as soon as he spoke.

Xie Changyan chuckled, as if he had heard some joke, the tone in his voice carrying a pleasurable note, and he nonchalantly replied, “What, Young Master Guo didn’t lose enough last time and wants to lose again?”

The red-haired man clenched his teeth, spitting, “Last time I was just unprepared, this time I might not lose to you!”

“Oh?” Xie Changyan’s chin tilted slightly, “What are you planning to give me this time, another house?”

Their previous race had been wagered on a large flat in the city center.

A house was nothing to these wealthy young men, but losing face in a race mattered much more than the house itself.

Lately, no matter which clubhouse they went to, there was always someone mocking them for not seeing clearly.

“Young Master Guo, I thought you claimed to be unbeatable in racing, how come I heard you lost to Xie Changyan, hahahaha…”

“No way, no way, didn’t Young Master Guo sweep up a gold trophy at an international event, claiming to be undefeated? How could he lose to an amateur?”

“What do you all know, Young Master Guo likes to do charity now and then, giving away houses and such.”

“So when will Young Master Guo give me a house as well, hahahaha…”

Due to his usual braggadocio, some who disliked him seized the chance to mock him mercilessly after learning of his setback.

Young Master Guo had been so angry in those days that he felt dizzy, never before had he felt such humiliation; he wanted to recoup his losses from Xie Changyan, “Just say it, will you race or not!”

Xie Changyan shrugged his shoulders, looking completely uninterested, “I have no interest in such a guaranteed win, or didn’t last time’s race make the gap between us clear enough for you?”

“You!” Young Master Guo was choked up.

Last time’s race was basically a thrashing by Xie Changyan.

He also knew he currently had no chance against Xie Changyan’s ability.

He felt intimidated for a moment.

“Young Master Guo, don’t be afraid of him. Didn’t we make our calculations?” the man beside him came up to Young Master Guo, muttering in his ear.

Calculations?

Right.

They had quietly spilled lubricant oil on a certain part of the race track, guaranteeing a spectacular crash for him.

Knowing where the oil was spilled meant he could drive past it safely and secure a flawless victory.

Thinking of this, Young Master Guo’s face regained its previous arrogance, snorting coldly, “Even if there is a gap, that was before!”

“It’s good to be confident, keep it up,” said Xie Changyan, losing any will to chat further, and he turned back to his racing car.

“Xie Changyan, don’t run, let’s race one more time!” Young Master Guo was still yelling from behind.

“We’ll talk about it next time.” Xie Changyan waved his hand.

Then he started the car and drove past them.

Lin Xu looked at him and blinked, “They’ve come to challenge you, and you’re letting them go just like that, without racing them?”

Xie Changyan’s mouth quirked into a smile, chuckling “How about a race? Should I drop you off first?”

“I can sit in the passenger seat and watch you guys race.” Lin Xu said nonchalantly.

“Then throw up in my car, affecting my performance?”

“I won’t throw up, don’t underestimate me!”

Xie Changyan’s laughter grew brighter, “Then… shall we make a bet?”

Familiar words made Lin Xu’s heart suddenly tighten, her voice slightly trembling, “Bet on what?”

Xie Changyan’s gaze drifted off into the distance, as if contemplating the content of the bet, “If you win, I can grant you a request, but if I win, then you…”

Lin Xu clenched her fists nervously, her heart pounding nonstop.

Suddenly.

The car tires skidded, the racecar went out of control, the screeching of brakes and the collision were terrifyingly sharp, chaos ensued for a moment.

Xie Changyan’s expression turned grave as he clutched the steering wheel tightly, preventing the car from flipping over.

The high-speed racecar was heading straight for the right-side guardrail.

A moment before the collision, Lin Xu saw a figure throwing themselves in front of her, tightly shielding her in their embrace.

In that instant.

Lin Xu’s pupils constricted, as if she saw the car accident that occurred before her rebirth.

Just like now, she was fiercely protected in Ji Yanli’s arms, and both were impaled by steel pipes from the truck ahead.

The color drained from Lin Xu’s face, turning ashen, and the painful, fearful memories almost made her scream out loud.

She gasped for air, her chest heaving violently.

After the collision, the racecar came to a stop.

Xie Changyan took a deep breath and let go of Lin Xu. Noticing her unusual state, his heartbeat went haywire, concern spreading across his solemn face, “Where are you hurt, let me see.”

He took off Lin Xu’s helmet, cupped her cheeks, and scrutinized her face carefully, but found no wounds.

Could it be her body?

He frowned and looked around, but saw no trace of blood.

Yet her eyes brimmed with tears, her body still shaking uncontrollably.

Xie Changyan took her ice-cold hand and with his other hand caressed her cheek, his finger pads gently rubbing her face, urging her to look into his eyes and calm down.

Although he clearly lacked experience, the actions to soothe her were so natural when he saw her fear and sadness.

“Don’t be scared, I’m here, tell me where you’re hurt, okay?” Xie Changyan pressed his forehead against hers, his voice tender.

Lin Xu’s tear-filled eyes were fixed immovably on his face.

Past images surged toward her like a fierce flood, the motion and tone so familiar.

Traversing years and time, the casually handsome man from her memories overlapped with the man in front of her, who was concerned about her.

It was as if she could see Ji Yanli right in front of her.

Years of affection and intuition transcended all time and space, also surpassing all evidence that denied her feelings.

At this moment, she was completely certain that Xie Changyan was Ji Yanli.

Her husband.

Although she did not understand why Ji Yanli would forget himself and end up in another’s body.

Tears lingered, finally slipping from her eyes.

Xie Changyan’s chest inexplicably ached, and he reached out to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eyes.

Just as he was about to speak, Lin Xu leaned forward and kissed his lips.

His breath halted momentarily.
