This Damned Thirst for Survival

Chapter 179: Hot At One Time, Cold At Another

Chapter 179 - Hot at one time, cold at another

Sweat slides down the side of Jiang Luo's face.

The smile on Jiang Luo's lips deepened after he felt a line of sight fixed on him, and Zheng Ning's face became hotter and hotter as he smiled, and his mood, which had not felt anything for Jiang Luo before, changed, "Are you very hot?"

Can this person stop smiling at him and just like him so much?

"It's a bit hot," Jiang Luo said with a relaxed brow as he asked Wen Renlian to borrow a leather band and simply tied his hair up to reveal his long, white swan neck, "that's much better."

The sight that rested on Jiang Luo's body grew even hotter. It followed the beads of sweat from Jiang Luo's temples to his neck like a substance.

The skin is delicate, the cold white hue shrouded by the dim night air, and the sweat soon disappears when the cold wind blows.

Jiang Luo is out and about today without his regal pendant. One ear hole set in the earlobe, dry and clean.

The sight grew bolder and the dark-haired youth being looked at realised as an afterthought that something was wrong. He raised his head with a frown and looked in the direction of the sight.

The evil spirit approached at a graceful pace, wearing a gentle, hypocritical smile as he locked eyes with Jiang Luo, without a hint of the vainness of having been caught snooping, and even with some pleasure at having achieved his goal of getting Jiang Luo's attention.

Jiang Luo's expression turns impatient, however, and he turns back to continue joking and laughing with Zheng Ning until Liu Qi walks up to them with his men.

Liu Qi introduced the two sides, "This is my brother Wang Shao, and this handsome guy is Wang Shao's friend Chi You. One more person will be added later, do you guys mind?"

The crowd certainly shook their heads.

Chi You smiled and extended his hand, handing it straight to Jiang Luo, "Hello."

Jiang Luo shook his hand lightly, both of them looking as if they didn't know each other, "Hello."

But when Jiang Luo tried to let go, the evil spirit held on to his hand and rubbed it gently against his palm. Jiang Luo remembered that he had to look like he was never going to get it, so he looked at Chi You and forced his hand out of the demon's grasp.

This little tidbit went unnoticed as Zheng Ning's eyes were glued to Chi You, "I haven't seen this friend of Wang's before."

Wang Shao laughed out loud, he was very respectful of Chi You, "This is a very good friend of mine, you must not underestimate him."

Jiang Luo estimates that most of the followers have either been brainwashed by Chi You or have become Chi You's puppets. Once Chi You kills the Destined One and breaks the curse, all followers will rise up. And when Chi You wants to target someone, Jiang Luo has a way of appearing in front of him, no matter what he has done or where he has gone.

It is like an invisible palm that closes a dark line. And this dark line is trying to gather Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo looked at Wang Shao and thought to himself, "You don't know that this "friend" of yours died half a year ago and became a ghost.

Zheng Ning's cheeks are flushed, and she looks at Chi You as if under a spell, and Jiang Luo as if indecisive, glancing back and forth.

His gaze caught the other man's attention and Chi You looked over at Zheng Ning, raised an eyebrow and asked meaningfully of Jiang Luo, "Is this the man you brought with you?"

Zheng Ning subconsciously wanted to deny it, but hesitated when he opened his mouth, "This ......"

Liu Qi laughed, unconcerned, "Little brother Jiang didn't have a companion when he came up, did he?

Jiang Luo didn't refuse, "Sure."

"Oh," Chi You dawned on him and the corners of his mouth lifted, "then how about betting the other half of this match. Whoever loses, loses their partner to someone else."

After that, Chi You smiled at Zheng Ning with a relaxed, charming look, "How's that?"

Zheng Ning swallowed and responded to the handsome man's flirtation with forced indifference, "Yeah, I'm fine with that."

Jiang Luo wins and he becomes Jiang Luo's partner, and Chi You wins and he becomes Chi You's partner. The two best men are racing for him, so whoever wins and whoever loses, Zheng Ning will not lose.

Chi You also had no company, but Wang Shao gave Chi You his female companion. The race soon started and the riders got on their bikes, each carrying a man behind them. Jiang Luo got on first, his legs propped up on either side of the bike as he looked down and straightened his gloves. Once he had finished with his kit, he put on his helmet.

Chi You was not far from him, and when the referee said to get ready, he watched as Jiang Luo bent down, his upper body slightly lowered on the bicycle. Jiang Luo's spine was sunken into a beautiful curve from the waist to the hips, and then up to the hips. Such a simple preparatory pose made the evil spirit feel as if he had been poured with hot oil and a dark fire had risen.

This feeling is like being drugged with a drug called "Jiang Luo", the sight of Jiang Luo makes you overwhelmingly aroused. His soul is burning, his body is craving, every cell is expressing its insane hunger for the other. Chi You's nerves are constantly on the verge of faking sanity and insanity, wanting to claim Jiang Luo's flesh and blood, knowing that his madness for him will only make Jiang Luo vain and complacent, turning it into a tool to mock him.

Chi You is a compulsive perfectionist and a unique aesthete, Jiang Luo treads on his every appreciation of beauty, but this rose is not good enough for him to hold and play with, he has to cross the thorns to pluck the other side.

The inability to control it completely means eternal surprise.

The female companion behind Chi You boldly reached out, her red-painted nails on the verge of hugging Chi You, when Chi You gently stopped her with her car keys.

The evil spirit withdrew his eyes from Jiang Luo and smiled, "Beautiful lady, you can hold on to the car yourself, can't you?"

A chill inexplicably rose up in her female companion and she shivered, her smile hard as she gripped the bars on the back of her locomotive, "Yes ......"

At the top of the hill, a dozen vehicles rushed out abruptly after the referee's hand signal fell. A dozen engines roared to life, forming a fierce, low sound of artillery.

Two locomotives burst from the pack, pressing their cars to the limit at the bend, tyres slicing harshly against the ground and the smell of petrol burning sanity.

Jiang Luo and Chi You ran in the first line.

Jiang Luo Yu Guang glanced at Chi You and ignored him. But he felt the other man approaching him and the two bikes were on the verge of colliding at the rear of the road, with Zheng Ning and his partner both pale and screaming.

"Don't get so close on the panhandle!"

"Hit it, almost hit it!"

At such a fast speed, one mistake and the two cars would have been in a very serious accident. Jiang Luo tried to stay away from Chi You, but he didn't expect Chi You to step on his pedal.

What appeared to be a simple kick was so heavy that Jiang Luo was unable to control the motorbike and left. The mirrors of the two bikes collided with each other, the impact of which broke both mirrors on the spot. Jiang Luo's bike nearly skidded off the road in the iron-to iron collision, and Zheng Ning and his female companion were about to roll their eyes in fear as they saw the next corner in front of them.

The female partner could still scream, but Zheng Ning was too weak to scream.

For the first time, it became clear to him that Chi You was a monster!

Does he want them to die!

Chi You was without his helmet, his face intact in the night, clearly as handsome as ever, but creeping out others.

Zheng Ning watched in horror as he reached out a hand as if to take hold of Jiang Luo's biker handlebars.

It was horrible, this man was horrible, it was clearly murder! He completely snapped out of his obsession with Chi You, tears and snot running down his face.

After doing something like this that could cause someone's car to be wrecked at any moment, he still curled his lips and smiled with a graceful gesture, "It's time for us to swap male and female companions."

What does he mean?

Zheng Ning and her partner's faces turned white. They had only heard of a swap of partners at a dance, but not a swap during a motorbike race.

Swapping male and female partners on a motorbike can be a handicap on the ground with one foot out. Not to mention the fact that with a corner in front of you, it's just not possible!

Jiang Luo dodged his outstretched hand and calmly said to Zheng Ning behind him, "Hold me tight."

Zheng Ning froze and then scrambled to grab Jiang Luo. Jiang Luo revved up to top speed and then twisted the car violently, using the impact of the high speed to turn around on the hill, breaking free of Chi You's grip. The tremendous friction put a tremendous strain on the tyres, the ear-splitting sound scraped the ground and the smell of burning hit the nostrils.

Zheng Ning's eyes were wide open and he was dizzy and almost suffocated. At a critical moment, Jiang Luo made another extreme U-turn and headed back towards the bend, seeing another speeding locomotive coming from behind.

Jiang Luo's body was low and once again he caught up to Chi You, turning the corner two bodies behind Chi You and catching up with Chi You on the straight.

This time he kept the two locomotives at arm's length, and Zheng Ning's heart leapt out of his throat as he clung to Jiang Luo and stole a glance at him.

Jiang Luo concentrated on finding a way out, but when he went left, Chi You went left, and when he went right, Chi You went right, but he couldn't get through.

At this point, however, Zheng Ning was less worried, finding security in Jiang Luo's expression. Zheng Ning's Yu Guang inadvertently glanced at the scary, devil-like man next to him, only to see that the man wasn't looking at the road ahead at all, but was staring at him expressionlessly!

"!"

Zheng Ning's whole body trembled violently in fear. The look in Chi You's eyes was even more frightening than the eyes of a murderer he had seen on television, sending chills down his spine and giving him goosebumps.

"Jiang, Jiang Luo ......" Hurry up and go.

But before the next word could be uttered, he realised something was wrong, Chi You Where's that lady friend behind him?

Zheng Ning's face turned white.

But soon, he knew where the lady friend had gone.

Because a voice suddenly appeared in Zheng Ning's head.

"Jump down jump down jump down jump down ......"

"You jump to live, or you die."

"Let go of your hand and jump hands first."

Jumping hands first? If you jump like that, you'll break your hand.

But the voice was so eerie, as if a ghost was speaking in his ear. Zheng Ning looked up and to either side and saw a hanging corpse suddenly appear under a street lamp, and the corpse was smiling at him with its eyes open.

"Ahhhhh!" Zheng Ning released his hold on Jiang Luo and screamed as he tried to jump out of the car, but before he could, he was abruptly pulled back in by Jiang Luo's grip.

Jiang Luo said calmly, "Sit still."

He patted Zheng Ning's hand reassuringly.

Zheng Ning felt the voices in his head suddenly disappear and the ghostly figures he saw in front of him were also gone, his mind was in a state of confusion and he subconsciously sat back down.

Jiang Luo had put his own amulet on Zheng Ning and the woman in question, with Wen Renlian right behind him, so as not to let any innocent people get into trouble. After pulling Zheng Ning back, he looked sideways at Chi You for a moment and then suddenly took the initiative to come closer, closing in on Chi You as the next corner approached, kicking Chi You's car as soon as he had accelerated through the corner.

Chi You's car shook violently as Jiang Luo and Chi You drove alongside each other, he on the right and Chi You on the left. Once Jiang Luo was secure, he also reached out with his left hand and grabbed Chi You's arm as he warned, "Don't touch my people, got it?"

When he finished, Jiang Luo's left hand came forward and covered Chi You's right hand.

His five fingers were long, like carvings in the hands of an artist. This hand plunged unceremoniously into Chi You's five fingers holding the accelerator handle, and as the evil spirit's eyes darkened, he slammed down on Chi You's brake lever.

Chi You's bike came to a sharp halt and Jiang Luo instantly overtook him and sprinted forward. The moment he did, Jiang Luo turned back, his left hand pulling off the brake and touching his helmet across his lips, giving him an arrogant, provocative kiss, "Rubbish, I'll go first."

The kiss was like a taunt from a rival, but it also seemed to have the tease of a breeze blowing through without leaving a trace.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Luo was far away.

Eventually Jiang Luo made it to the finish line as the first runner, one turn ahead of the second place. Once he was down, he handed Zheng Ning over to Liu Qi, took off his helmet and spoke to the man next to him to go to the toilet.

While washing his hands, Jiang Luo looked up and saw a man behind him in the mirror, in addition to him.

Jiang Luo was not the least bit surprised, the excitement of having just won the match and the arrogant joy of having succeeded beyond Chi You had receded from his face. Chi You could not find a trace of himself in his demeanour.

Chi You doesn't like the way Jiang Luo looks at him.

Jiang Luo, as if he hadn't seen him, drew out the paper and wiped his hands before preparing to go out, but the evil spirit blocked the way out.

Jiang Luo's face is still flushed from the match, his lips are crimson, the tip of his nose beads with sweat, his sweat-soaked face as if washed with water, the ends of his eyes teasing and skimming over the evil spirit's face.

"What is it." He asked coldly.

The evil spirit was silent for a moment and spoke slowly and deliberately, " Jiang Luo ."

He narrowed his eyes and a dangerously icy aura filled the air, "Why are you always hot and cold to me at one time."
