DO NOT VOTE! Thank you!
_________Jennie was rendered speechless when she heard what Soobin had said.
A pleasant partnership?
When she had been Soobin's navigator, he had almost driven her to an early grave. How dare he claim that they'd had a pleasant partnership and that he should be the one enjoying her company instead?
"I refuse." Jennie rejected him outright. "I already know your standards. Don't worry, I won't say a word even though I'm sitting next to Solomon. I just want to monitor his performance."
Soobin looked devastated when Jennie rejected him heartlessly. He could only close his window after mumbling something inaudible.
"Do you need to familiarize yourself with the car?" Jennie turned to Solomon.
He scanned the car briefly for a few seconds before he quipped, "Sister, there is no need. I'm familiar with this type of cars, as I always used them in school."
"Do your best then," Jennie replied with a nod.
When the Old Master gave the command, both Soobin and Solomon's cars sped away at the same time.
Jennie's eyes darted to Solomon at intervals.
Initially, she didn't detect anything different about him. However, as time went by, Solomon seemed different.
There were passion and energy blazing in his eyes as he overtook Soobin's car. There was also a triumphant tiny grin on his face.
"He is too weak." A tiny smile flitted across Solomon's mouth as he muttered softly.
'Whoosh!'
Solomon had finished his first lap by the time these words left his lips.
Soobin was chasing after him frantically.
His car was even better than Solomon's, so he shouldn't lose to him.
On the other hand, it was understandable that Soobin couldn't overtake Solomon.
Solomon managed to maneuver his way around the obstacles and tight corners of the training ground skillfully. He also performed a good assessment of the risks.
If he didn't manage to do this properly, he would be slower by his opponent by a second. A few seconds would make a huge difference and cause a racer to fail to catch up. Soobin was in that situation right now, as he couldn't even see the exhaust fumes of Solomon's car.
After meeting several obstacles and turning corners, Soobin was at least slowed down by five seconds. These five seconds made an alarming difference.
Jennie sized up Solomon closely.
The fire in his eyes was more apparent now, and he seemed to have cast everything away. In his eyes, nothing else but the racing track mattered. He had demonstrated excellent technique at every tight corner, as though he had been training at this particular track for ages. However, this was actually his first time here.
This boy, Solomon, somehow reminded Jennie of her apprentice, Death Knight.
He resembled Death Knight on the track... as well as his style.
The only difference was that Death Knight wasn't quiet or obedient at all. Other than his coach, Yeva, he wouldn't listen to anyone. He didn't even care about Yeva's other apprentices. Amongst all of Yeva's apprentices, he was the least liked.
Solomon stopped his car a short distance away from the finish line.
Jennie snapped to her senses and asked him, "Why did you stop?"
