Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shen Li pursed her lips as she turned her embarrassnt into an accusation against him.
“It hurt when you bit just now.”
As she spoke, she frowned slightly and licked the corner of her lips.
It was swollen, and– if he had used more strength, he might have broken through the skin.
Lu Huaiyu knew that he was in the wrong, but he really could not be entirely blad for this matter.
After all, she was the one who had said that she wanted to coax him first, so he had to see so sincerity in her words.
Moreover, he had already been quite restrained.
However, it was obvious that he could not say these words now. He rely kissed her a few more tis to acknowledge that this little ancestor of his had been wronged.
If she felt that it hurt now, he did not know what would happen in the future–
He stopped and kissed the space between her eyebrows.
“Does it still hurt?”
Shen Li stayed silent.
Lu Huaiyu picked her up and carried her over to the sofa.
“Are you hungry? What would you like to eat?”
He did not continue to pursue the initial topic, which showed that he had coaxed her quite successfully this ti.
Shen Li leaned on his shoulder and shook her head.
“I’m not hungry now.”
Lu Huaiyu placed her on the sofa.
“Then we’ll eat later.”
Seeing that he did not seem ready to leave, Shen Li felt a little strange.
“Isn’t Second Brother going back?”
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyes slightly and looked at her.
Of course, he understood the subtext of her words. She was asking him why he was not going back to his room to get so rest.
He smiled and said playfully, “Now?”
It would be strange if he could still sleep at this ti.
Realizing that she was the culprit, Shen Li said, “… Oh.”
Just then, her cell phone rang.
She picked it up to take a look and realized that it was a call from Ronai.
She sat up slightly and picked it up.
“Mr. Ronai?”
“Ah Li,” Ronai’s voice sounded very friendly with a hint of a smile. “You should be in Leland by now, right?”
Shen Li was a little surprised.
“Yes. But… how did you know?”
The list of the twelve teams for the race had been released a few days ago. The news that she would be participating as the captain of LY had long spread.
However, not many people had known about her arrival in Leland today. She had not expected Ronai to call her directly.
“About that…” Ronai explained with a smile, “It’s because the hotel you’re staying in is under the Berkshire family.”
Shen Li did not know what to say.
She had almost forgotten about that.
Ronai was the person in charge of the Berkshire family. He was born in Leland. Although he spent most of his ti in Bai City, this was his holand after all. The Berkshire family still had a great influence in Leland.
“I’m still in Bai City. I’ll be going back to Leland to watch your match in a few days. By the way, after the match, you should take a good look around Leland.”
Ronai’s invitation to her was sincere so Shen Li had no reason to refuse.
“Okay.”
“When you have ti, you should go to my gallery to take a look.”
Shen Li paused.
“Of course.”
Ronai was very happy to hear her answer. He reminded her to rest well and wished her well in her preparations for the competition before hanging up.
“Was it Mr. Ronai who called?”
Lu Huaiyu, who was beside her, also heard it.
Shen Li nodded.
A smile appeared on Lu Huaiyu’s lips.
“Mr. Ronai really likes you.”
He had taken care of her during their ti in Bai City, and he was also showing concern for her now that she had co to Leland.
Ordinary people really did not get such treatnt.
“He’s inviting to visit his gallery after the competition,” Shen Li said.
This was not the first ti that Ronai had invited her. She had declined before, but now that she was in Leland, there was no reason to refuse any longer.
Lu Huaiyu nodded in agreent and said with a smile, “Not everyone is qualified to visit Mr. Ronai’s private gallery. It’s indeed a rare opportunity. Besides… after the competition ends, it’ll be ti to relax.”
As he spoke, he gently caressed her hair.
“There are many fun places here. It’d be a pity to miss them.”
Shen Li looked up at him, the corners of her lips curving into a faint smile.
“Yeah, I think so too.”
…
On the first day they arrived in Leland, everyone basically stayed in the hotel to adjust their jet lag.
The next morning, LY gathered all its mbers and prepared to go to Victoria Velodro to familiarize themselves with the venue.
Their cars had already been sent there.
Victoria Velodro was huge, and its facilities were world-class. To be able to participate in an international race here was a lifelong dream for many drivers.
Even Ron, who had a calm personality, had a rare look of excitent on his face. The atmosphere in the team was very warm.
The velodro was right across from the hotel, so it was very convenient for them to go there.
However, because the internal venue was not open to the public, only the official racers, substitute racers, a coach, and a manager in each team were allowed to enter together.
Other people needed to apply for special permission to enter and exit the racetrack.
Therefore, Lu Huaiyu did not go with them this ti. He stayed in the hotel to deal with his company’s affairs.
And because LY had two other presidents besides the manager, the responsibility of going with them fell upon Yang Tao’s head.
Gu Siyang had originally wanted to go, but considering that the competition was about to start, there would definitely be a lot of things to deal with there. Yang Tao had been in charge of external affairs for the past few years, so he was more experienced. Thus, in the end, Gu Siyang had to bear with the pain and give in.
After all, there were only three training days left before the competition. He hoped that LY would try their best to seize the ti and opportunity to adjust their state of mind.
…
At eight o’clock in the morning, Shen Li and the others arrived at Victoria Velodro.
Yang Tao led the team in the front and introduced the place as they walked.
“Victoria Velodro covers an extrely large area. It can accommodate close to 100,000 spectators at the sa ti.”
This was a top-tier racing venue in the world of racing. The scale was astonishing. Other than the live audience, there were also a large number of fans watching the television broadcast and the live webcast. The coverage was extrely wide.
“The 12 teams each have their own lounge. The 12 marked in front is our position.”
As Yang Tao spoke, he pointed forward.
Everyone looked over and found that it was around the corner. Compared to the other lounges in front, which could be considered as facing the racetrack, it seed rather remote.
When the drivers ca out from there, no one would pay much attention to them.
“Ours is No. 12. How was this arranged?”
Ji Shu asked as his eyes narrowed slightly.
Yang Tao paused. Before he could speak, a mocking voice ca from behind him.
“Of course, it’s been arranged according to the overall strength of the team. The better the strength, the higher the ranking. The weaker the strength, naturally, the ranking would be lower. So, you guys are from LY of China? Then… this lounge is indeed a good match for you guys.”
Ji Shu’s expression turned cold.
When the other team mbers heard this, their expressions also changed, and they turned around to look.
Only Shen Li heard this sowhat familiar voice, and her brows furrowed impatiently.
It was only her first day here, and she had not even had the ti to check the condition of her car before she even t this person.
This was bad luck.
