1099 Let’s Have a Good Chat Tonight?
Their eyes met, and the air around them seemed to freeze for a moment.
Shen Li blinked before walking forward with a normal expression on her face.
“When did Second Brother come over?”
The tone of her voice was natural.
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.
“Not long.”
Shen Li’s eyelashes fluttered.
Even if it was “not long,” it was still possible that he had been able to hear what was said.
“Sister Li?”
Ji Shu and the others had walked for a while, but when they realized that Shen Li was not following them, they turned around and called out to her.
Shen Li replied, “I’m coming.”
She lifted her chin.
“Then, Second Brother, I’ll just go over there first, okay?”
Lu Huaiyu replied with a “hmm.”
Shen Li started to walk forward, but just as she walked to the side, she realized that Lu Huaiyu was following her.
She hesitated.
“Second Brother, I can go over there by myself…”
“It’s just a short distance, allow me accompany you there.”
Lu Huaiyu’s thin lips curled up slightly, his tone low and lazy.
Shen Li’s lips moved, but she nodded in the end.
The two of them walked towards the podium together.
…
Gu Siyang had already rushed over with LY and the rest of the team. They stood guard beside the podium, intending to be the closest to witness this glorious moment with their own eyes!
The teams in second and third places had already arrived and were waiting for Shen Li.
In addition, Ivan, the chairman of the championship committee, and others had also arrived, waiting for the start of the official award ceremony.
Looking at the excitement of the people of LY, Davidson frowned, feeling increasingly frustrated.
He was still brooding over the fact that Crowe had been forced to withdraw from the competition by Shen Li.
Because of this, Crowe had not gotten a placing, and AMG had not gotten into the Top 3.
“Although the competition is over, I still have some questions,” Davidson said in a deep voice, “What Shen Li did on the track before, was it really not a malicious competition?”
As soon as he said this, the originally warm and happy atmosphere froze for a moment.
Not only had Ivan and the others heard it, but even Gu Siyang and the others who were not far away had heard it clearly.
They looked over in surprise.
Ivan frowned.
“Shen Li did not break any rules.”
Although no one had expected the race to end in this way, Shen Li’s every move on the track had no basis for judgment.
The referees’ opinions were clearly the same.
However, Davidson had insisted on asking this question at this moment.
Davidson sneered.
“Let’s not talk about Crowe for now, but what about Mervyn? Shen Li targeted Crowe once, but she targeted Mervyn three times! If he had not been careful enough, he would have been forced out of the track by Shen Li. Is there no response from the committee? What if in the future, everyone decides to follow suit, then…”
Before he could finish, he was suddenly interrupted by a nonchalant voice.
“Mr. Davidson, I believe you are overthinking things.”
Davidson was stunned. He turned around and saw Shen Li.
But the man beside her was… extremely young, beautiful, cold, and noble, but Davidson did not know him.
However, from the way he stood with Shen Li, Davidson could tell that he was somehow related to Shen Li.
He frowned.
“Overthinking? I’m just thinking on behalf of the other racers! What position and qualifications do you have to criticize–”
Ivan had seen Lu Huaiyu, but before he could greet him, he heard Davidson’s rude and accusing voice. His eyebrows twitched, and he quickly tried to stop him.
However, it was too late.
“Even if the referee decides not to punish her, I still have my reservations about her and LY’s victory!”
Ivan took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Why had he brought Davidson here?
When Gu Siyang and the others heard this, their expressions changed immediately.
“I said you’re overthinking things…”
Lu Huaiyu seemed to smile as he tilted his head slightly and said with great interest, “It means that it’s hard for anyone else to do the same thing as her.”
Davidson choked.
That’s right.
Shen Li had intentionally suppressed Crowe and Mervyn, but even he had to admit that she had relied on her own skills.
If it had been someone else, they probably would not even have been able to compete with those two, let alone execute such an absolute suppression.
Lu Huaiyu seemed to be smiling, but the tone of his voice was cold.
“Also, Mr. Davidson has said that he has reservations. I would like to ask, is this opinion directed at the engine built with our company’s latest research and development, or is it directed at my girlfriend?”
Davidson was momentarily confused. He did not understand.
It was at this moment that Ivan finally found the opportunity to speak, and hurriedly said, “President Lu, I’m really sorry. We… we definitely didn’t mean it that way!”
The people around him were confused.
What was the big deal?
Davidson frowned.
“President Lu? Chairman, do you know him?”
Ivan’s head hurt!
They were more than just acquaintances! This man–
Lu Huaiyu’s lips curved into a faint smile, but it revealed the pride and arrogance in his bones.
He said, “I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Lu Huaiyu.”
Ivan took a deep breath before saying, “This is the president of the Farley Group.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings fell into a dead silence.
The Farley Group was one of the world’s largest automobile manufacturers! He was also the sponsor of the championship!
Davidson’s expression changed.
The crowd was also dumbfounded.
Lu Siyu was so shocked that he lost his voice.
“F*ck! Doesn’t that mean that Second Master Lu is our financial backer?”
Gu Siyang reacted for a moment and muttered, “So, the 10 million yuan prize money is…”
Shen Li’s heart skipped a beat as she looked at Lu Huaiyu.
She really had not known anything about this …
Lu Huaiyu also looked over and encountered her surprised gaze. He took the initiative to extend his hand and raised his eyebrows with a smile.
“Congratulations, champion.”
Shen Li opened her mouth, “Why did Second Brother not mention this before?”
“You didn’t ask.”
Lu Huaiyu seemed to be smiling yet not smiling, dragging his tone as if he was implying something.
“Shen Tangtang, I don’t think this is considered a lie, right?”
Shen Li pursed her lips.
So, he had indeed overheard her.
When he had asked her if she had been to Leland before, she had said no.
But in fact…
She reached out to hold his hand.
His palm was dry and warm.
She moved closer and raised her face. Her red lips curled into a playful arc, and her peach-shaped eyes were bright.
“Then… let’s have a good chat tonight?”
