Lin Yan dozed off and woke up abruptly when the race ended.
There wasnât a break after the winner was announced. The other race started almost immediately.
âNext team, Storm,â a commentator announced curtly.
Lin Yanâs interest was piqued when she heard the commentator.
It was Pei Yutangâs team.
He Lefeng, Mo Shuyun, and the rest also looked alert.
âIt will be a certain victory for us if we are picked!â Mo Shuyun quipped excitedly. âPlease choose us! I hope Storm will be our opponent for the three races!â
However, He Lefeng and Mo Shuyun were disappointed. It wasnât the He family team...
âWhirlwind!â
...
Lin Yan almost burst into laughter when she heard the team that would be Stormâs opponent.
Whirlwind was the best team in Category C. Pei Yutang was too unlucky.
Lin Yan was trying to visualize Pei Yutangâs expression.
Pei Yutang was grave and sulky as he shook the hand of Whirlwindâs boss. A second later, he turned on his heel and left.
He was known to give his opponent an easy time, which proved to be true this time.
The most dismaying thing was that their team captain wasnât picked...
As expected, Storm lost miserably to Whirlwind. It was too appalling to watch, so even Lin Yan didnât have the heart to carry on watching.
Pei Yutang stomped angrily as he cried, âI feel as if the whole world is against me! Why did it have to be Whirlwind? Why did the wind blow against my team?â
âBoss, the world is indeed against us! How could we meet the best opponent otherwise? Why would Whirlwind pit themselves against us?â
âArenât we supposed to be called Storm?â A team member glanced carefully at Pei Yutang. âThe whirlwind caught up with the storm...â
Pei Yutang glared at that team member. âYouâre fired!â
Everyone was speechless...
...
After the winner of Storm and Whirlwindâs race was announced, the next race commenced.
âNG team versus the He family team.â
Mo Shuyun seemed excited as he clasped his hands. âGod bless! We are on!â
NG was also a junior team that had just started racing months ago. In Mo Shuyunâs opinion, they were an easier opponent than Storm.
The members were soon picked.
Yun Xuan and He Lefeng were selected.
âGood luck!â Lin Yan smiled at He Lefeng and Yun Xuan.
âSister... Donât worry...â Yun Xuan muttered softly in response.
NGâs boss shook hands with He Dingkun before the competition, looking glum.
The competition commenced shortly.
He Lefeng was the first to race, but something happened in the middle of the race. He stopped his car for several seconds and was eliminated.
Yun Xuan won the next race.
...
After the race, an awkward-looking He Lefeng returned.
âWerenât you confident earlier?â Mo Shuyun asked He Lefeng sharply.
âIt was an accident. An accident,â He Lefeng mumbled awkwardly.
