The Legend of Speed (or Ji Su Chuan Shuo in Mandarin) is basically about car racing and the lives of two lovers who are forced to face off on the racing track. We are first introduced to Mars, one of the most popular race car drivers in the country, who won every race he joined. However, Mars harboured a secret motive beneath all these: the actual reason he became a racer was to gain revenge for his father. His father died in a car accident, which was believed to be caused by a legendary car racer at that time known as 911. After the accident, 911 disappeared from the racing world, but Mars, wanting to avenge his father's death, became a racer and joined every race that 911 previously raced in. He wanted to beat 911's records as a way of revenge and to become a superior racer compared to him.
His sister Juliet, a timid and media-phobic person by nature, was about to get married to Du Bian Si (Ah Si) on the same day. Although she knew that Ah Si (being successful in business and all) was the perfect man, she could't help but have doubts about their marriage. After a few mess-ups, she dumped Ah Si at the altar. Then, she met Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng was an energetic young chap who had a strong passion for car racing despite his father's disapproval. At first, Juliet disliked Xiao Feng but as fate would have it, they fell for each other eventually. Juliet urged Xiao Feng to pursue his dreams of being a car racer against his father's wishes and after many obstacles, Xiao Feng joined Mars' team, M-Sport.
Upon knowing Xiao Feng and Juliet's relationship, Qing Ting ' Xiao Feng's childhood friend who had feelings for him was devastated. Ah Si, on the other hand, wanted revenge on both Juliet and Xiao Feng for their betrayal. Tragedy occurs when Ah Si was injured in a race with Mars and Xiao Feng and was paralysed.
The drama unfolds when Mars discovered that Tai Ji, Xiao Feng's father, was actually 911. Thus, he challenged Tai Ji to compete against him in the European Championships, but Xiao Feng offered to race on behalf of his father. Juliet and Xiao Feng's relationship was also affected. Unable to cope with all the hatred between the two families, she decided to follow Ah Si back to Japan but he refused to bring her along, knowing that she still loved Xiao Feng.
Finally, at the European Championships, everyone was geared up for battle. During the race, it was revealed that Ah Guo (Qing Ting's father, who also died in the accident) was actually the person who had caused the accident, not Tai Ji. Upon hearing the truth, Mars was distracted and crashed into the barriers. The impact of the crash was so great that he died. His last wish was for Juliet to finish the race for him. Juliet decided that only by racing with Xiao Feng, the hatred between the two families would truly be settled. Thus, she vowed to battle it out with Xiao Feng.
