You've Got Some Nerve

There are few things that race car drivers fear. They aren’t afraid of Yanling Road on rainy days, nor are they intimidated by the four-meter-wide Dishui Lake. They fear the team’s mechanics. Lu Chengshan, the chief engineer—a face full of menace, muscles built like steel, messy hair, grimy clothes, and eyes sharp as blades. Above his head loom four words: dominance by bloodline. Pei Su is the team’s new race car driver, in his early twenties, bouncing around like a monkey from Mount Emei— Today, he eggs on the modification team: “What kind of tuning is it without a giant spoiler?” Tomorrow, he sweet-talks the GT group: “Who needs ABS? Real men brake on their own!” The next day, he rounds up buddies from the motorcycle crew for an adrenaline-fueled mountain run, shouting: “Straight-line speed is true speed! Who can’t take corners? Lu’s off duty today! Bros, come at me!” Finally, Lu Chengshan catches him red-handed, yanking him by the collar. “Pei Su,” he says, “you’ve really grown some guts.” --- **Reading Guide:** 1.
