After signing the contract, Lin Yan returned to Cloud Manor and collapsed on the couch with her phone.
She continued to occupy the top trending spot, as the public didn’t cease to criticize her.
Lin Yan had gotten used to the criticism online. She might feel uneasy if there was no criticism.
“Sister-in-law! Are you home?” Pei Yutang yelled.
“Yeah, the door isn’t locked,” Lin Yan answered dully.
Soon, the door burst open and Pei Yutang ran in.
“Sister-in-law! We’re done! We’re finished!” Pei Yutang looked as though the world had ended.
“What happened?” Lin Yan was puzzled by his expression.
“Sister-in-law, something big happened! We are so dead!” Pei Yutang sighed dramatically.
“Say it,” Lin Yan replied impatiently as she surveyed Pei Yutang.
“Sister-in-law, have you not heard about the new racing rules and regulations?” spluttered Pei Yutang hastily.
“New racing rules and regulations?”
Lin Yan had no idea what Pei Yutang was rambling about.
“Yeah!” Pei Yutang nodded frantically. “All the teams need to be re-categorized. My team belongs to the beginner’s level. If we meet any of the strong teams, we will be dead!”
“That’s it?” Lin Yan stared at Pei Yutang blankly.
“Yeah!” Pei Yutang nodded fervently.
Lin Yan was speechless…
She had assumed something huge had happened judging by Pei Yutang’s expression earlier.
Lin Yan replied softly, “It doesn’t matter.”
“It doesn’t matter?” Pei Yutang scratched his head. “What do you mean?”
Lin Yan glanced at him. “That’s your team, not mine, so it doesn’t matter to me.”
Pei Yutang blinked in silence as the corners of his mouth twitched. “Sister-in-law… Daddy, you can’t just sit and do nothing! My team can’t continue to lose!”
“Your team has been losing all along. A few more losses wouldn’t make a difference. Shouldn’t you have gotten used to it?” Lin Yan chuckled softly.
“Sister-in-law, that’s right… But wait! It’s different now! Sister-in-law, I’ve recruited an excellent racer and I planned on winning the next few races to elevate our level. Who knew that the rules would change suddenly!”
Pei Yutang gazed at Lin Yan helplessly. “Daddy, there are so many strong teams in the upcoming competition. I will have to dissolve my team if we lose!”
Lin Yan knew this but she wasn’t worried about Pei Yutang. He had the money, so he didn’t have to dissolve his team.
“You don’t need any investors or money, do you?” She gazed at Pei Yutang.
He shook his head furiously. “Sister-in-law, I need investors! I don’t have much money, and I spent a lot on the new racer… My funds have almost run out!”
Lin Yan stared at Pei Yutang. “Are you expecting me to invest?”
If he wanted her life, she would say no. If he wanted her money, she would absolutely say no as well!
