Chapter 933: Shall We Go Home Together?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Huaiyu was sitting in the chair opposite Gu Tinglan. His long legs were crossed, and he looked elegant and n.o.ble.
Hearing Gu Tinglan’s words, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
“Why not?”
Gu Tinglan frowned slightly.
“It’s not like she can always be by your side. Besides, if she leaves you one day, what will you do then?”
!!
Lu Huaiyu’s dark eyes were cold.
“She won’t.”
“I mean ‘if’.”
“There’s no such thing as ‘if’.”
He spoke in a very calm tone of voice, but it carried a deep-rooted stubbornness and certainty.
Gu Tinglan said, “Lu Er, you should know that anything can happen in this world. I’m giving this suggestion for your own good and for Ah Li’s sake as well. What if…”
He did not finish his sentence.
That was because he knew that Lu Huaiyu would not listen to him.
The room quieted down.
Gu Tinglan was actually very conflicted.
Lu Huaiyu was not willing to take the medicine, nor was he willing to accept the psychological treatment. All of this was within his expectations.
After all, anyone who had experienced what he had experienced would probably have this att.i.tude.
For such a long time, Lu Huaiyu had resisted all treatment and relied on his own willpower to adjust himself.
He seemed to be recovering well.
However, Gu Tinglan understood that this was not the case.
Especially after Shen Li appeared, she had become his only medicine.
His mental state was gradually improving.
But at the same time, all his emotions were in her hands.
If a person was sick, it would be good if there was medicine.
However, if there was only one medicine that was useful, it would be a good thing as well as a bad thing.
Because once he stopped taking the medicine–
The only thing waiting for him would be the abyss of despair.
Lu Huaiyu looked at his watch.
“It’s almost time. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first.”
This conversation came to an end again.
Gu Tinglan silently sighed. Seeing that he was about to leave, he reminded him,”Your examination report.”
Lu Huaiyu had no intention of taking it.
Gu Tinglan continued,”It should be shown to Old Master Lu so that he can be at ease.”
At least this examination report looked much better than his previous ones.
Lu Huaiyu paused for a moment before he reached out and put away the inspection report.
When he left, Gu Tinglan merely pressed the s.p.a.ce between his brows and sighed softly.
…
All the LY drivers had a very fulfilling day.
They finally realized how naive they had been before. They had actually thought that once Wen Xiao was here, their lives would become good.
When Wen Xiao finally relented and ended today’s training, all of them almost cheered and celebrated on the spot.
Of course, they basically did not have the strength to do so now.
Everyone walked back listlessly, each and every one of them with dark faces.
Only Ji Shu was in a very good mood.
Shen Li looked at him and asked, “Why are you still so happy even after being scolded?”
Ji Shu clicked his tongue.
“Sister Li, you don’t understand. In the past, I was the only one who was scolded, but it’s different now. There are so many people accompanying me! And–”
He raised his chin to indicate Wen Xiao who was standing on the other side and lowered his voice as he said,”Besides, I used to think that his scolding was already extremely hard. Now I know, that’s nothing.”
In comparison, he was already someone who was especially loved.
Everyone should just be content with their lives!
Shen Li nodded in agreement.
“I only found out about this today as well.”
When Lu Siyu and the others heard what she said, they all rushed over with tears in their eyes.
“Sister Li! You have to persuade Wen– Coach Wen… and tell him that we will definitely work hard in the future! Please ask him not to scold us so harshly! We really can’t take it!”
Shen Li said sympathetically,”I know. I will try my best to persuade him later.”
No matter what, she was the one who had invited him, so she had to be responsible to the end.
Although… it was probably useless to persuade him.
However, Lu Siyu and the others were still very touched.
“Thank you, Sister Li!”
“Sister Li, you’re familiar with Coach Wen. Could it be that he was like this in the past? Does his temper become especially hot-tempered once he steps onto the track?”
Shen Li shook her head.
“No, his temper was quite good in the past.”
Everyone shared looks with each other.
“That’s true. After all, Sister Li is a girl. Besides, Sister Li is so talented! Sister Li, did Coach Wen train you more gently in the past than when he’s training us?”
“It was alright.”
As she spoke, she caught a glimpse of Wen Xiao taking out a cigarette from the corner of her eye. She raised her voice slightly to say,”Uncle Wen, you’ve already finished a pack today, right? You should stop smoking now.”
Wen Xiao had a headache. He raised his hand and pointed at Lu Siyu and the others.
“Did you see how they drove just now? How can I not smoke?!”
Shen Li paused for a moment and compromised.
“Then take it as an advance for tomorrow.”
Wen Xiao’s lips twitched. For the millionth time, he regretted the decision that he had made in a moment of weakness to agree to be the coach. He bit the cigarette in his mouth.
“Got it!”
Everyone was stunned.
Fine.
It was obvious who was lecturing whom.
It was also clear who the boss of this training ground was.
After a short period of silence, the group eagerly rushed over to Shen Li.
“Sister Li! Are you thirsty? Let me treat you to some milk tea!”
“Sister Li, are you tired from watching? Why don’t you go back and rest first?”
“Sister Li–”
Shen Li lifted her chin towards the electronic screen.
“I’ve noted down your results and rankings today, so you should train well from now on. Also, let me say one thing in advance: I won’t be interfering with Uncle Wen’s training.”
Everyone froze at the same time.
What her words translated to was– you guys can count on your own luck!
Ji Shu crossed his arms across his front and laughed without stopping. He was really enjoying seeing the expressions on their faces that looked as if they were facing their deaths.
After all, he would not be the only one being scolded in the future!
Shen Li looked at the time.
“Alright, that’s it for today. I still have something to do tonight, so I’ll be leaving first.”
Someone pretended to be brave and asked,”Sister Li, is Coach Wen going with you?”
Shen Li smiled.
“No, he’s going to watch your old race videos tonight.”
Every driver’s habits and style were different. Wen Xiao needed to know them well enough to be sure of the training plan.
Although he always said it was annoying, he would still do his best since he was now in this position.
With mixed feelings, everyone looked at each other. They were both happy yet full of pain.
To be able to receive Wen Xiao’s guidance was something that many racers dreamed of.
But it was just… too fierce. It was not something that ordinary people could take!
Although they were still reluctant for her to leave, one by one, they still bid Shen Li goodbye.
“Then, goodbye, Sister Li.”
Shen Li nodded and looked at Gu Siyang.
“Brother, let’s go.”
Gu Siyang was stunned.
“Huh?”
Shen Li curiously asked,”First Aunt is cooking tonight. Aren’t you going back to Jinshui No. 1 Courtyard for dinner?”
Gu Siyang was shocked.
“I don’t know! No one informed me at all!”
Shen Li quietly said, “… Oh.”
An awkward silence fell upon the place.
After a moment, Shen Li said, “Aren’t I telling you now?”
Gu Siyang sneered.
“My parents must have forgotten about me again! This isn’t the first time they’ve done this! They’ve really gone too far–”
Shen Li interrupted him. “Shall we go back together?”
Gu Siyang indignantly said, “Yes!”
