Lin Yan was rendered speechless when she heard what He Lefeng had said.
A pleasant partnership?
When she had been He Lefengâs navigator, he had almost driven her to an early grave. How dare he claim that theyâd had a pleasant partnership and that he should be the one enjoying her company instead?
âI refuse.â Lin Yan rejected him outright. âI already know your standards. Donât worry, I wonât say a word even though Iâm sitting next to Yun Xuan. I just want to monitor his performance.â
He Lefeng looked devastated when Lin Yan rejected him heartlessly. He could only close his window after mumbling something inaudible.
âDo you need to familiarize yourself with the car?â Lin Yan turned to Yun Xuan.
Yun Xuan scanned the car briefly for a few seconds before he quipped, âSister, there is no need. Iâm familiar with this type of cars, as I always used them in school.â
âDo your best then,â Lin Yan replied with a nod.
When the Old Master gave the command, both He Lefeng and Yun Xuanâs cars sped away at the same time.
Lin Yanâs eyes darted to Yun Xuan at intervals.
Initially, she didnât detect anything different about Yun Xuan. However, as time went by, Yun Xuan seemed different.
There were passion and energy blazing in his eyes as he overtook He Lefengâs car. There was also a triumphant tiny grin on his face.
âHe is too weak.â A tiny smile flitted across Yun Xuanâs mouth as he muttered softly.
âWhoosh!â
Yun Xuan had finished his first lap by the time these words left his lips.
He Lefeng was chasing after him frantically.
His car was even better than Yun Xuanâs, so he shouldnât lose to him.
On the other hand, it was understandable that He Lefeng couldnât overtake Yun Xuan.
Yun Xuan managed to maneuver his way around the obstacles and tight corners of the training ground skillfully. He also performed a good assessment of the risks.
If he didnât manage to do this properly, he would be slower by his opponent by a second. A few seconds would make a huge difference and cause a racer to fail to catch up. He Lefeng was in that situation right now, as he couldnât even see the exhaust fumes of Yun Xuanâs car.
After meeting several obstacles and turning corners, He Lefeng was at least slowed down by five seconds. These five seconds made an alarming difference.
Lin Yan sized up Yun Xuan closely.
The fire in Yun Xuanâs eyes was more apparent now, and he seemed to have cast everything away. In his eyes, nothing else but the racing track mattered. He had demonstrated excellent technique at every tight corner, as though he had been training at this particular track for ages. However, this was actually his first time here.
This boy, Yun Xuan, somehow reminded Lin Yan of her apprentice, Death Knight.
He resembled Death Knight on the track... as well as his style.
The only difference was that Death Knight wasnât quiet or obedient at all. Other than his coach, Yeva, he wouldnât listen to anyone. He didnât even care about Yevaâs other apprentices. Amongst all of Yevaâs apprentices, he was the least liked.
