Chapter 454: The Setup is Unfair

Translator: _Min_ |

Meng Zhi ruffled Gu Dai’s hair with a proud smile, “Daidai, I got first place. Was I handsome just now?”

Gu Dai nodded with a slight sense of resignation, agreeing, “Handsome, extremely handsome. I was almost dazzled.”

Upon seeing Meng Zhi, Shi Nuan nervously hid behind Gu Dai.

Gu Dai gently pulled Shi Nuan forward, smiling at Meng Zhi, “Nuannuan also thinks you were very handsome in the race. She was cheering for you the whole time.”

Shi Nuan’s cheeks reddened with nervousness, and she waved her hands frantically, denying, “No, no…”

Meng Zhi pretended to be heartbroken, “I knew Daidai was fooling me. Even Miss Shi is denying it.”

Hearing this, Shi Nuan’s heart fluttered with more anxiety.

Gu Dai handed Shi Nuan a bottle of water, and said to Meng Zhi, “Nuannuan is just shy. Don’t tease her, Third Brother.”

Meng Zhi nodded with a smile, “Alright.”

He turned to Shi Nuan, whose cheeks were rosy, and asked softly, “Little

Nuannuan, did you think I was handsome?”

Shi Nuan hurriedly responded, “Handsome, very, very handsome.”

After her response, she quickly added, “Really!”

When Lin Mo and Xia Yi approached, they saw this cheerful scene.

Their steps faltered, and a look of bewilderment crossed their faces. They walked up to Meng Zhi, asking in confusion, “Meng Zhi, do you know them?”

Meng Zhi replied with a smile, “Of course, I know them. Gu Dai is my younger sister, and Shi Nuan is Daidai’s friend, almost like another sister to me.”

After saying this, he turned to Gu Dai, “The race is over. Let’s go grab something to eat.”

Gu Dai shook her head, declining, “I still have a race with Miss Lin Mo. Let’s eat after that.”

Meng Zhi agreed, “Okay.”

Lin Mo panicked. She hadn’t expected Gu Dai and Meng Zhi to be siblings. She glanced at Xia Yi, who was trembling slightly, and glared at her in anger for persuading her to accept the race.

Xia Yi, trying to salvage the situation, stepped forward, “Our racing skills aren’t that great. Maybe it would be fairer if we raced against Shi Nuan.”

Gu Dai’s eyes narrowed slightly, “So, you mean all three of you will race together?”

Xia Yi nodded, “Yes. If either Lin Mo or I win against Shi Nuan, then we win.”

Gu Dai scoffed coldly, “I’ve never seen such audacity. We agreed to race against each other, and there’s no changing participants now.”

Xia Yi, acting petulant, “If we don’t change participants, then we won’t race.”

Gu Dai was furious, wanting to lash out.

Shi Nuan held Gu Dai’s hand, “Daidai, if they want to race against me, then let them.”

Gu Dai was worried, “But…”

Shi Nuan shook her head, “It’s okay, I think I can do this.”

Seizing the opportunity, Xia Yi quickly said, “Since Shi Nuan herself has agreed, let’s have a three-way race.”

Meng Zhi, unaware of the prior events, objected, “This setup isn’t fair, even if Shi Nuan agrees.”

Shi Nuan, knowing Meng Zhi was only referring to the race setup, smiled softly and shook her head, “It’s okay, I’m confident.”

Lin Mo hurriedly informed the organizers about the extra race, and they found it interesting enough to agree.

Gu Dai carefully adjusted Shi Nuan’s racing suit, reminding her before she left, “Nuannuan, this race is inherently unfair, so losing doesn’t mean anything. Just make sure you’re safe.”

Shi Nuan obediently responded, “Okay.”

Meng Zhi also advised, “Remember, safety is most important.”

Shi Nuan, slightly startled, nodded in understanding, “I know.”

The three racers reached the track and took their positions in the cars.

The audience, unfamiliar with the racers, was still excited to see the additional race. Everyone’s eyes were on the track.

Gu Dai cheered for Shi Nuan, shouting, “Go Nuannuan!”

Hearing the cheer, Shi Nuan turned to Gu Dai, waving her hand in acknowledgment before responding, “Okay!”

Shi Nuan glanced at Lin Mo and Xia Yi on either side, focusing intently. As the referee signaled the start, she quickly drove off.

Though she had watched many races and had some driving experience, it was all just for fun. This was her first competitive race, causing her to feel nervous at every turn..
