Jennie shot him a glance. "Why?"

Sungjae dismissed her question by waving his hands. "Nothing! No wonder you're my daddy! Sister Jen, you're absolutely right. Sister Jen is always right!"

Jennie looked rather speechless. "I am always right? Didn't you say that I'm a D-list actress who deliberately gets into scandals to boost her popularity? I was even shameless enough to start a rumor that I'm in a relationship with an actor..."

Sungjae denied this without hesitation. "Those rumors must have been spread by someone else. Those people want to tarnish your reputation!"

Jennie was speechless...

Young man, that wasn't what you said earlier on!

The corners of Jennie's mouth twitched. "You do change sides in a battle really quickly, don't you? Where are your principles?"

Sungjae scratched his head. "Principles? I am a man of principles!"

Jennie was speechless...

So, his principles were based on who drove the fastest? That person was always right?

How about old and experienced drivers? Would they get the same treatment?

"Oh yeah. Sister Jen, why didn't you continue racing? Why did you become a celebrity instead?" asked Sungjae.

Sungjae's inquisitiveness made it hard for her to handle his endless questions.

Jennie answered casually, "Originally, I just wanted to try racing for fun. I like being an actress more..."

Sungjae pondered this briefly and decided that racing wouldn't be quite feasible in the long run as a career for Jennie considering that she was a girl. It was normal for her to like being an actress. Thus, he finally stopped questioning her. "In that case, it's a pity..."

Jennie heaved a huge sigh of relief when Sungjae finally stopped asking questions.

Actually, what she had said to Sungjae wasn't entirely a lie. There was a portion of truth in it.

The reason she had quit racing was a lie, but the reason she had started racing was real.

Initially, she had indeed begun to race because she'd had a crush on a racer. However, she had gradually realized that racing was more fun than dating a guy. It was so much more fun that she had simply forgotten about the guy and focused on racing...

Actually, in hindsight, this wasn't the first time that had happened.

She really picked things up fast. After leaving school, she had tried various jobs. Before she had become a racer, she had even been a substitute game player.

She'd had a crush on a professional player, so she had practiced really hard to learn the game tactics for his sake. In the end, she had turned into an expert and even become the best player on the server.

Playing games was really fun, so why would she need a boyfriend? Could he be eaten?

However, she had been really young when she had started playing games. This activity hadn't been very popular back then, and the competitions hadn't garnered that much attention. She hadn't been able to make much money, so she had switched jobs to find something that promised more income.

So far, her racing career was the longest job she had ever held, as well as the one she had been the most passionate about.

After being banned from competing, she hadn't been able to get over this setback. She had returned to her home country, thinking that her sister and Han Kai would be a source of comfort and serve as her harbor.
