The shock in Luo Ling’s heart vanished in an instant.
Even if her racing skills were top-notch, what could she do?
She wouldn’t choose her!
All the racers who came to compete today were here because of the reputation of the Luo family. They wanted to join the Luo family racing team and make it to the international stage. Unfortunately, she held the power to decide who would be selected.
With this in mind, Luo Ling sneered, arrogantly raised her chin, and walked slowly towards the stage.
The next step was the selection process.
Nan Yan and Shen Junqing weren’t interested in this. They planned to deal with Luo Ling after she gave the prize money.
As for why they had to wait until the prize money was given, it was because Nan Yan was worried that if she caused trouble for Luo Ling now, the Luo family would not pay the 50 million yuan and her efforts would be in vain.
Luo Ling’s gloomy gaze shifted towards the two who were sitting calmly in the rest area, seemingly detached from the proceedings.
What were they pretending to be so calm for?
Did they really think that just because they took first place, she had to choose them?
How presumptuous!
Luo Ling had already imagined in her mind that when she finished announcing the selected names and Nan Yan found out she wasn’t chosen, how disappointed she would be.
At that moment, Nan Yan would have to come and beg her to join the team.
After all, she was just an ugly duckling who wasn’t liked by her own family. What made her think she could compare to her?
Luo Ling withdrew her gaze, standing in the crowd and announcing a few names.
Those whose names were called out instantly showed joyful expressions and excitement.
“The racers whose names have been called can participate in the second round of assessment. As long as they pass the second round, they will be able to join the Luo family racing team and compete in the international grand prix at the end of this year.”
“That’s great!”
“The international stage! After all these years of hard work, I finally have a chance!”
Those selected racers couldn’t contain their excitement, behaving like children.
Luo Ling looked smugly towards Nan Yan.
After all, Nan Yan wasn’t among those chosen. Would she be upset and accuse her of unfair selection when she came to question her?
When that happened, she could contemptuously tell her that in this world, there was no such thing as fairness. From head to toe, except for her face, there was nothing that could compare to her!
Only she was worthy of a man like Qin Lu.
Before Luo Ling could fully revel in her satisfaction, her phone suddenly rang.
She glanced at it and saw her father’s call, so she quickly answered.
“Dad, what’s wrong?”
“Ling, no matter the cost, you must sign the first-place winner for me!”
Luo Mingfeng’s voice carried a commanding tone.
“Dad, did you watch the race?” Luo Ling felt a bit anxious.
“You don’t know anything about racing, and I couldn’t trust you alone. The race is being recorded, and I’ve received all the footage here,” Luo Mingfeng’s voice was filled with excitement. “That first-place winner is definitely a talented racer. If we can get her to join our team, she will definitely shine in the national championship at the end of the year!”
“Ling, you must sign her, do you hear me?”
Luo Ling tightly gripped her phone, reluctantly complied with her father’s command, and replied, “Okay.”
Damn it!
How did her father manage to watch the video of Nan Yan’s race?
Now she had no choice but to sign her, completely against her original intentions.
Luo Ling felt irritated for less than three seconds before another thought crossed her mind. As long as she signed Nan Yan, wouldn’t she be able to control her personal freedom?
Once she became a member of the Luo family racing team, it would be easier to deal with her if she wanted to harm her. With this in mind, she suddenly felt relieved and cheerful.
She put on a smile and approached Nan Yan. “Congratulations, Miss Nan Yan, for winning first place in the race and receiving a prize of 50 million yuan. You are also fortunate to join the Luo family racing team as an official member, without the need for a second assessment.’
As she spoke, the people around them began to whisper.
“I knew it! The Luo family would never pass up on the first-place winner. It turns out the first-place winner has special privileges, different from those of us who need a second assessment.”
“But as long as you have eyes, you won’t miss out on that first-place racer. With such strong abilities, recruiting her is like adding a major general to the team!”
“I have to admit, I can’t compete…”
“I’m not interested in joining the team,” Nan Yan said indifferently, causing everyone present to turn their attention to her.
Even those who had been talking fell silent.
The smile on Luo Ling’s face froze. “Miss Nan Yan, what do you mean by that?”
“It means exactly what it sounds like,” Nan Yan said lazily, leaning back on the sofa. “I came to participate in the race just for the prize money. Could you please transfer the prize money to me and not waste my time?”
Luo Ling was taken aback by her words. She had expected that when Nan Yan mentioned the Luo family signing her, she would be grateful. But now, Nan Yan was showing no interest in joining?
This contrast nearly drove her to explode with anger.
She took a deep breath and suppressed her boiling anger, speaking with a forced smile, “Miss Nan Yan, are you trying to negotiate with the Luo family by declining to join? Let me make it clear to you, the Luo family treats all official members well, so I hope you won’t be too greedy.”
“I just want the prize money and have no interest in joining the team. Is that not clear enough?”
Nan Yan’s expression seemed to suggest that Luo Ling was acting like a fool.
“If you don’t understand, let me say it again, Miss Luo. Please transfer the prize money to me quickly; I’m in a hurry.”
Shen Junqing, who was standing nearby, couldn’t help but smile. His sister’s straightforwardness was like a slap in the face to Luo Ling.
But as he thought about Luo Ling’s intention to harm Nan Yan, the slight amusement in Shen Junqing’s eyes turned into a dark and serious expression. Regardless of the reason, if anyone dared to hurt Nan Yan, it would be unforgivable.
The Luo family had better pray that this was something Luo Ling did on her own.
Otherwise, Shen Junqing wouldn’t mind taking action against the Luo family.
Luo Ling didn’t have time to pay attention to the changes in Shen Junqing’s expression. She clenched her teeth and said sharply, “Nan Yan, you don’t know what’s good for you!”
“Do you have a problem?” Nan Yan gave her a cool look. “Whether or not to join the team is my choice.”
After a brief pause, she raised an eyebrow and said, “Or perhaps, you could kneel down and beg me, and I might consider it.”
Luo Ling snapped, “You’re courting death!”
After being publicly humiliated by Nan Yan, all rationality was thrown to the back of her mind.
She couldn’t hold back anymore. Driven by anger, she raised her hand and tried to slap Nan Yan.
Shen Junqing’s face instantly turned cold and menacing. He was about to make a move when Nan Yan acted faster.
She stood up, effortlessly caught Luo Ling’s hand as it came down, and with her right hand, ruthlessly slapped Luo Ling across the face.
A loud slap echoed, making everyone in the vicinity feel a stinging sensation on their own faces.
“You dare to hit me?” Luo Ling’s face was numb from the pain, and she stared dumbly at Nan Yan.
She was the eldest daughter of the Luo family, and even her father had never slapped her before.. How could this woman dare to hit her?
