Chapter 359: Chapter 358: Crossing the Finish Line!
“Okay,” said Chi Gui, standing up and following Coach Cai downstairs.
Fu Si stopped her for a mont, pulled a Mint candy from his pocket, and offered, “Here.”
This ti, Chi Gui accepted it quite naturally, “Thanks.”
Coach Cai looked puzzled as Chi Gui pocketed the candy, feeling that sothing was off, but he wasn’t in the mood to ponder it further at the mont and went with Chi Gui to the racetrack.
In the racing team, including Manager Qian, no one really took notice of Chi Gui joining the team. They were all too busy with the training race coming up from Country F and had forgotten to arrange a car for her.
Coach Cai had no choice but to find a spare racing car for her at the last minute.
“This car hasn’t been used in a long ti, and its specs can’t quite keep up with the others,” Coach Cai apologized as he handed over the car. “But you just need a feel for the track, it doesn’t really matter.”
Chi Gui looked at the sowhat outdated car and chuckled lightly, “That’s fine, running with them is enough.”
Coach Cai: ?
He didn’t quite catch the aning behind her words, but before he could inquire further, Chi Gui was already in the car.
She unwrapped the candy, put the Mint candy between her lips, then started the car and began to slowly warm up on the track.
Coach Cai watched Chi Gui’s car move sluggishly along the track as the cars from Country F sped past her ti after ti. He sighed deeply and walked away to the youth training resting area.
Fu Si was still sitting in the sa spot, his long legs casually crossed, a Mint candy in his mouth. Seeing Coach Cai, he waved lazily.
Coach Cai walked over, looking at Fu Si’s carefree deanor. Thinking it over, he decided to kindly remind him, “When she cos off later, she might not be in a good mood. You should… offer her so comfort…”
He automatically assud Fu Si was Chi Gui’s boyfriend.
Fu Si glanced sideways at Coach Cai, nodding in approval at his keen perception, and advised, “Don’t worry, although she’s not interested in professional racing, she wouldn’t let outsiders bully her own. You’d better talk to your leader as soon as possible, to figure out how to promote the team properly after beating Country F, draw in so fans.”
Coach Cai felt that Fu Si was spouting nonsense.
But a boyfriend’s confidence in his girlfriend was normal, and he didn’t want to be discouraging, so he quietly sat down next to Fu Si, pondering how to comfort Chi Gui later.
Inside the racetrack.
After running a couple of laps, Chi Gui felt ready and drove the car to the start line.
At the start line, a racer from Country F was already waiting.
Chi Gui got out of the car and greeted the racer politely, “Hello.”
The racer didn’t respond to Chi Gui, instead sizing her up from head to toe several tis, then said with disappointnt, “Really? A youth trainee is bad enough, but a girl? This is so uninteresting…”
He was the lowest-ranked mber of his team in Country F, which was why he was paired with a youth trainee from Huaxia.
He found it boring enough to race against those inexperienced and lousy drivers, and now he had been paired with a girl!
Without waiting for Chi Gui to speak, the racer waved his hand dismissively, got into his car, and said, “Let’s get this over with quickly, don’t waste ti!”
10 seconds later—
The racer from Country F erged from his car, dumbfounded, looking at Chi Gui already waiting at the finish line: “Why are you here?”
Chi Gui replied, “Because I wanted to finish quickly, not waste ti.”
The racer from Country F: …
He felt his face turning red for so reason and went back to his team, warning the others, “That female driver is a bit tricky, be careful.”
The training race had simple rules: knockout rounds, the loser stepped down for a replacent, and the winner continued to race until everyone had a turn.
