"Do you want to add a lot of water?" Asked Charlie .

"How much are you going to add?!"

Babe answered with an annoyed expression because the stupid kid kept asking him about everything. Even when boiling instant noodles, he was asking how much soup he wants. If not for the fact that he was currently having a hard time doing things on his own, he would have gone and hit him. Who knows, it might help his brain work more. So he didn't need to keep calling Babe all day like this.

Since the last competition, it has now been a week since the accident. In fact, this was not the first time he had encountered something like this. Mistakes on the track were commonplace for a racer, so he had enough experience to survive before being roasted in the car as Charlie feared. But of course, persisting at that time would definitely cause him harm. His right wrist was broken and sprained his knee, it was quite a problem. Because after he received treatment, he needed another 4-6 weeks to recover and had to wear casts on both hands and knees. And that means he won't be able to drive for at least the next two months.

This fact made him very upset because within 2 months he had to recuperate. This means he will not be able to compete this season. When he heard this for the first time, Babe threw a massive tantrum. It could be said that both Way and Charlie had to endure the racer's emotions very hard. After Way saw the condition, he went to talk to the stadium organizing team and asked to cancel the competition for now, then used the time now to investigate the culprit who secretly damaged his car's system, which was the cause of his car losing control and causing the accident as seen. However, the final result was that the stadium refused to take part in the offer. This is because 2 months is considered too long to stop the competition due to problems with one of the cars. It made him barely able to survive and made him go berserk until the track was almost destroyed again.

To be honest, until now he still can't accept the fact that he won't be competing this season. This means he will lose the title of King without even being able to compete. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he felt. The fact that he lost that match and that he was injured like this was enough to upset him. This has also spread and affected his performance this season. He really wanted to grab that loser by the neck and stomp him into the ground.

"Here it is." Charlie's cheerful voice was heard along with the fragrant aroma of instant noodles that he had wanted to eat since last night. However, last night Charlie forbade him from eating late at night as it was not good for his health. Of course he wasn't interested at all. So the giant boy tried hard to convince him, with the promise that when he will wake up, Charlie would boil it to eat first thing in the morning. In the end, he couldn't help but be patient.

"Give me!" Babe stretched out his uninjured hand towards Charlie, intending to take a bowl of noodles to eat. But the tall figure withdrew his hand and refused to hand over the bowl to him. He shook his head lightly.

"I'll feed you in a moment." Said Charlie.

"You start again!" Babe said with a bored look on his face, because since he was out of the hospital, Charlie wouldn't let him do anything on his own. Even when eating, he would feed him. The reason was because he was right-handed, although it wasn't that bad, because eating with his left hand wasn't difficult. Only this kid acts like it's a big deal. "I'm not paralyzed, Charlie. I can use my left hand."

"But it's hard to eat." Said Charlie.

"I can."Said Babe.

"But those are chopsticks," Charlie said with an innocent expression. "Can you use chopsticks with your left hand?"

"Take a fork." Said Babe.

"Forks are hard to use too."said Charlie.

"Eh! you!" Said Babe.
