The Urban Dao Child

The boy came back to Feng Yun when he heard her voice. He asked with sparkles in her eyes, "Hurry, why are you standing?" with these words, he held her hand and started leading her to the garage.

Feng Yun said, "Young master the keys are in my bedroom." her voice was helpless. This boy became a kid too quickly.

Yang Dao turned the direction to her bedroom. He knew Feng Yun's room was opposite to his. He bought her to the door and stopped. He said, "You go in, and get the keys sister Yun." his tone was anything but patient.

The other three people in the living room had an amused reaction when they saw his excitement. Ryu Jinshi asked, "Xiao Bai, does he like cars?"

Laohu Bai chuckled, "He is nuts for them. You point at a car and he will probably know every specification about it. As for Quinn, it is the world's fastest car. It has not yet made a debut on the road. Young Master will surprise you two oldies."

Just when they were talking they saw Yang Dao dashing through the leaving room and came to Laohu Bai. He whispered in her ear, "Let's go, Sister Yun gave me the keys. She will come after locking the vault. She will not let me drive fast. Come, quick."

Then he dashed towards the garage with no care in the world. Laohu Bai chuckled as she ran after him. The old man sighed, "Youth is a wonderful thing. I was like this once as well."

Ryu Jinshi said with a powerful face, "Umm, I remember I met you when you were already a middle-aged man. Hard to believe you were young." his words made the old man change face. Before he could rebuke, a questioning voice came over, "Where is Young Master?"

Ryu Jinshi said, "He went to the garage." Feng Yun shook her head. She said, "Come, we take the chopper. He will not listen to me tonight."

The three people headed to the helipad inside the house. Meanwhile in the garage...

Yang Dao stood in front of the car. Gazing at it with a sparkle in his eyes. Raised his hand to caress the edge lightly. Laohu Bai was fascinated by his face. She took out her phone and clicked pictures A lot of them. Suddenly the phone buzzed.

She saw it was Feng Yun calling her, picked up the call, and said, "Okay. Yeah, I will see to it."

Laohu Bai said, "Young Master, we should go the other three have taken the chopper. Sister Yun said we can go to Jewels Prix Stadium. She has called people over. You can drive on the track as you like."

Yang Dao snapped back, with a nod, pressed the key in his hand and the door opened. He walked up and sat inside the driver's seat. The glazed mahogany interior with leather bucket seats was made of luxury among the luxury materials. Laohu Bai sat in the passenger seat. The car was a two-seater one.

Laohu Bai said, "Young Master, you place the key in the slot to start up the onboard assistant."

Yang Dao followed her instruction, placed the key in a slot in the center of the dashboard. The dash control panel lit up. A mechanical voice rang, "Hello sir, Cryptonia Drive assist welcomes you."

Yang Dao said, "Cryptonia, can the car function without your assistance?"

The computer replied, "100 percent functional, Sir."

Yang Dao nodded and said, "Leaving the basic settings, uninstall all your files." his voice carried no empathy toward a machine from the crypto nation.

The smart butlers would record your data and the Crypto Nation was privy to your information. Yang Dao did not want this. The computer replied, "You will have to contact the manufacturer for uninstalling the assistant program."

Yang Dao sneered. He said to Laohu Bai, "Sister Bai, by the time I am familiar with this car can you pull some strings and get this thing out."

Laohu Bai nodded, the four of them were major shareholders of the company and so they had powers. She picked up her mobile phone and called the CEO of the company.

A groggy voice sounded, "Hello..."

The girl with white hair replied, "Benjamin, this is Laohu Bai."

Benjamin immediately woke up, "Yes, President. What can I do for you?"

Laohu Bai gave a simple set of instructions and disconnected the call. Benjamin had a laptop, which allowed him access to manage all the devices equipped with a driver assistant. Usually, he will not meddle with this but today the president called personally and asked him to remove the Cryptonia driver assistant from Quinn.

He quickly tapped on the device, completed his instruction quickly, and re-installed a basic domestic program in the car system, remotely.

Yang Dao started the car engine, revved it a bit, and then slowly drove it out of the garage. He made one lap around the driveway and got familiar with the vehicle. Just when he was about to proceed to the villa entrance, his vehicle stopped and after a few seconds, it started again.

Laohu Bai said, "Task accomplished."

Chuckles sounded in the cockpit. Yang Dao drove the vehicle out of the villa and then to the road. The car moved on the road and attracted a lot of attention. It looked so good. The passerby could not help but turn back and look at him one time. Yang Dao increased the speed slowly as they approached the secluded area.

...

In the sky, a chopper was hovering in silence. Feng Yun sitting with her arms across her chest. The old man asked, "Why are you grumpy Xiao Yun?"

Feng Yun replied, "Young Master will be driving that car without a driver assist."

Ryu Jinshi asked, "That is the most advanced piece of tech. Why would he reject it?"

Feng Yun said, "Because it was made in Crypto nation. Young Master doesn't like them or their products."

Her words were true. Suddenly she felt the chopped move. Looking down she spotted a car moving through the traffic as if a needle through the silk. Ryu Jinshi spoke as he glanced below, "He can indeed drive smoothly."

Suddenly the vehicle shoots up like a bullet from the gun.

...

Yang Dao was now on a road that had almost no traffic. He asked Laohu Bai, "Jewel Prix Stadium is how far?"

Laohu Bai replied, "60 kilometers."

Yang Dao said, "Umm, that is 20 minutes give or take." and he floored the accelerator. The click transmission was capable of switching gears in a blink of an eye, without any effect on the speed. Laohu Bai was scared, the young master was moving too fast. This car was actually how it was described. A BEAST.  Yang Dao made elegant turns and sprints. The car was just a streak of light on the road.

...

A few people in the sports car were gathered together when they heard a high-pitched sound rushing towards them. The vehicle did not roar but it had a sound comparable to the electric supercars we see. A whistle. Some guys turned their attention to the sound.

One of the boys asked, "Hey, who had his car sound modified?"

The rest shook their heads when they saw a red streak coming over. They all stood with their cars on the side. The road was a U-turn to enter inside the race track. These guys were all pro racers. They focused on the vehicle approaching them only to have their souls almost scared out of their bodies.  The oncoming car did not intend to slow down.

Yang Dao inside the car did not change face. He pulled adrift at a high speed. Laohu Bai almost screamed. She had her nails deep inside the seat already for half of the journey. When she saw that the boy was about to drift in a hairpin turn she was scared witless. Also, there were people on the side of the road.

SCREECH!!!

Everyone just heard a harsh sound and burnt smell, coming from the tires rubbing against the asphalt. The professional racers had their jaws dropped when they saw the vehicle. More shocked when the crystal clear windows displayed the face of a young man sitting in the driver seat. Before they could react the car was already gone.

A man asked, "Say, was that the Quinn?"

One of the racers spoke with a stutter, "I was there during the launch event. I can never forget the ruby streaks on the car. It was the Quinn."

Someone shouted, "Hey, I caught it on the dashcam." this person's car was parked on the center of the hairpin turn and so his dashcam recorded everything, from the arrival to the departure. They all had their cars lined up on the left of the road and did not stand on the road.

Racers or not, vacant or not, no one was to stand on the road for more than a few seconds or they will go to the precinct. The guy was about to upload the video on the net when a senior racer said, "Don't upload it. The owner of that car was low-profile when they bought it. Also to buy that car they must have some background. As for the driver. He was so skilled. Do not be nosy lest they find you."

The man was correct. Feng Yun was low-key. As for Yang Dao. He did not care.(lol)
