Before He Dingkun could answer, He Lefeng scuttled over to them, looking worried. âSister Yan. The team is... fine... Nothing happened. Donât worry.â
The corners of Lin Yanâs mouth twitched. If nothing had happened indeed, why would he have that expression on his face?
âHe Lefeng, the team is about to be dissolved. How could you lie?â One of the navigators spoke up sharply.
For no apparent reason, Lin Yan noticed that every team member was hostile to her. The expression on their faces contained loathing and contempt.
âYeah, you should tell her the truth. There is no need to conceal the facts. Anyway, if she could do such a thing, why would she be afraid to know?â
Lin Yan was confused by their accusations. Had something happened to the He family team again? Had this been somewhat caused by her?
âShut up!â
He Lefeng frowned, looking displeased. âThis has nothing to do with Sister Yan. If it wasnât for her, the team would have been dissolved a long time ago.â
âEven if that happens, our conscience is clear. Our team has been blamed for her wrongdoings! What a disgrace!â
âYou!â He Lefeng hissed angrily. However, he was at a loss. He had no idea how he should answer all of them.
âXiaofeng, what happened?â Lin Yanâs eyes trailed to He Lefeng.
He Lefeng deliberated and sighed heavily. He finally spoke after a long while with a helpless look on his face. âSister Yan, itâs because of the competition between us and WW...â
Lin Yan couldnât fathom what was going on. Wasnât that competition over? They had already won!
âHa! Lin Yan, how dare you have the cheek to bring it up! If you hadnât arranged a fake competition, we wouldnât have to bear the brunt now! ZH1 and WW had nothing to lose either!â Qing Li, who had been silent all this while, lashed out at Lin Yan coldly.
He Dingkun furrowed his eyebrows at Qing Liâs response. âAlright, stop this. I will think of a way out.â
âThink of a way out?â Qing Liâs eyes trailed to He Dingkun. âOld Master, how can you solve this? Lin Yan is your granddaughter. There is no doubt that you will side with her. Furthermore, racing isnât her profession, so this wouldnât affect her at all. But what about us? We have been accused of organizing a fake competition! If the team gets dissolved, who would dare to hire us?â
The rest of the team members grunted in agreement.
âOld Master, Qing Li is right! If your granddaughter hadnât colluded with another party to organize this fake competition, our team would never have been in this dire state!â
âExactly! If we had known this would happen, we should have dissolved the team. Now, she has ruined our careers!â
âLin Yan, youâre Old Masterâs granddaughter and a member of the team. How could you do this to your grandfather and the team? Did a dog chew up your conscience?â
