Luna initially thought that Christian taking her for a ride meant that the hood of the convertible would be down and they would be on the circumferential highway, experiencing the night breeze.
She never expected for him to speed when they got to the highway.
This was a speed that Luna had never imagined before.
She felt as if her body was not her own. Her heart was beating so hard that it almost broke through her ribcage!
Luna grabbed onto the door handle and turned to look at Christian.
"Slow down!"
"It'll be fine, don't worry!" Christian smiled. "You can only relax like that!"
Then, he sped up once again.
The night breeze harshly blew by, and Luna’s hair fluttered with the wind. Under the intense excitement, Luna actually started to adapt to it. She calmed down a little.
In the end, she was even enjoying the thrill such extreme speed brought to her.
"It feels great, doesn't it?"
Seeing how she was not so against it, Christian chuckled a little.
"Doesn’t it feel like all your stress has been released?"
Luna nodded. It was true. Under such extreme sports, she felt as if all of her stress and the pressure she was under had vanished instantly.
Alas, good things would not last forever.
By the third round, a group of young people started chasing after them.
Luna could clearly see from the rearview mirror that the people driving those cars were as young as Christian.
In every car, every young boy had an equally young girl with them.
Luna furrowed her brows and looked at Christian.
"Forget about it. Let's go home."
She felt that all of her stress had been released. If they stayed there and continued racing, there might be trouble.
"What are you afraid of?”
Christian knew very well what Luna was worried about.
He wanted to speed up when his car was forced to stop by the other cars.
"Bro, are you taking your chick for a ride as well? Did n o one tell you that we own this place after ten at night?"
