You're already divorced, why are you so anxious about him becoming a succubus?

Tian Weiwei and Gu Xiaowei stared at each other awkwardly for a long time, their smiles appearing stiff, until finally neither could keep up the act any longer.

Tian Weiwei chuckled twice, breaking the awkward silence first: "Um... Weiwei, I suddenly remembered that Caiyin and I haven't had lunch yet. Let's go eat first!"

Gu Xiaowei felt like she had been granted a pardon and nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice: "Okay, okay! Sister Weiwei, you guys go quickly."

After saying that, Tian Weiwei didn't dare to linger for a moment. She grabbed Akimoto Ayane's sleeve and ran away as if fleeing into the distance.

Ayane Akimoto, who was being dragged along at a trot, looked completely bewildered, her eyes full of confusion, and mumbled in broken Chinese:

"Vivi-chan...would you like to eat? But...but we just ate sushi in the RV...didn't we...?"

"Shut up, Ayane-chan! You're hungry right now!" Tian Weiwei blushed and dragged her friend away around the corner without looking back.

……

Mid-November.

With the Three-Body Problem production team progressing rapidly under Lu Ci's efficient leadership, Lu Ci asked Guo Feng for a week's leave and boarded a flight back to Jiangcheng alone.

He returned to Jiangcheng this time because he needed to transfer there to fly to Japan to participate in the WRC World Rally Championship.

Moreover, he wanted to fulfill his promise to Lin Wan and take her to Hokkaido to see the snow.

Because the competition schedule was extremely tight, with the official opening ceremony this evening, Lu Ci and Lin Wan agreed to meet directly at the terminal of Jiangcheng International Airport and then fly directly to Nagoya.

When Lu Ci saw that familiar figure in front of the VIP waiting room, his eyes lit up slightly.

Today, Lin Wan was wearing a pair of blue and white checkered casual pants and white sneakers.

She was wearing a short, fluffy lambskin coat and pulling a small leather suitcase.

Her jet-black hair cascaded over her shoulders, making her appear pure and charming, just like when we first met in high school.

Lin Wan recognized Lu Ci, who was wearing a baseball cap and a mask, at a glance, and her beautiful eyes instantly sparkled with a thousand rays of light.

She didn't even bother with her suitcase and rushed over.

When she was still half a meter away from Lu Ci, the little girl let out a soft cry, leaped up, and pounced into Lu Ci's arms like a koala, wrapping her arms around his neck and hanging on him.

Lu Ci quickly reached out and hugged her slender and soft body.

Lin Wan raised her pretty face, her large, watery eyes fixed on Lu Ci, her longing and joy from the many days they had been apart almost overflowing from her eyes:

"Tell me quickly, it's been so long since we last met, did you miss me?"

Through his mask, Lu Ci looked at the girl in his arms with a smile in his eyes:

"Of course I've thought about it, I dream about it all the time."

Hearing this survival-conscious answer, Lin Wan smiled broadly.

She slid off Lu Ci contentedly, her small hand naturally taking his arm, and the two of them pulled their suitcases toward the boarding gate.

Walking down the corridor, Lin Wan blinked her big eyes, tilted her head, and teased:

"Didn't I tell you last time that you're allowed to bring your other girlfriends along?"

Lu Ci turned his head and raised an eyebrow: "If I really bring it, you won't be happy."

Lin Wan glared at Lu Ci with annoyance, then reached out her slender hand and symbolically pinched the soft flesh of Lu Ci's waist, letting out a soft snort:

"Hmph! I saw those photos of you surrounded by so many pretty girls in Hengdian online the other day, it really made me angry!"

Although she complained, Lin Wan's eyes and brows revealed nothing but happiness and sweetness.

……

The Sakurakoku round of the WRC World Rally Championship is held in Aichi Prefecture on Honshu Island.

The four-day race consists of nearly twenty stages, during which the drivers will need to travel over 930 kilometers of county roads, mountain roads, and secluded forest trails.

The complex terrain and challenging curves are a test of both the car's performance and the driver's mental fortitude.

Zhao Xingxing and his "Xingxing Racing Team" had arrived at the race base camp two days earlier.

After Lu Ci and Lin Wan arrived, Lu Ci immediately participated in the first day's official test drive process and attended the opening ceremony.

For this race, the "Star Team" has two entry slots.

Driver number one is Lu Ci, and driver number two is Zhao Xingxing.

Compared to Lu Ci's consistently calm and relaxed demeanor, Zhao Xingxing's face was flushed, and she was in a state of extreme excitement.

Having driven cars for several years and spent countless amounts of money, and having hired top racing coaches from home and abroad, Zhao Xingxing only felt that he had truly reached the threshold of becoming a top driver after a few months of guidance from Lu Ci.

He was bursting with confidence and couldn't wait to prove himself on the world stage.

The following day marked the first day of the official competition.

Aichi Prefecture is located at a low latitude, and in mid-November, the mountains and forests are covered with bright red maple trees.

"Boom!!"

Accompanied by the roar of modified engines, race cars shattered the tranquility of the forest.

The wheels gripped the ground, kicking up clouds of dust. The wind and waves caused the maple trees on both sides of the road to sway wildly, and countless fiery red maple leaves fell like a heavy rain.

In the driver's seat, Lu Ci wore a helmet, his eyes focused intently.

At this moment, he automatically blocked out all external noise, precisely capturing every instruction from the co-pilot, and instantly reconstructing the unseen track terrain in his mind.

In the co-pilot's seat was a young navigator in his early twenties.

He had trained and practiced with Lu Ci at Jiangcheng Auto Park before, but he was still a little apprehensive about actually stepping onto the world-class WRC circuit.

However, at this moment, watching Lu Ci's superb car control skills, the navigator's tension had long since turned into deep shock.

"Fourth from the right, uphill, curve narrows at the end!"

"Six long bends to the right, stay in the center line."

"At the top of the slope, connect to the third point from the right; be aware of the drop!"

The navigator quickly read the route map.

Before he finished speaking, the moment Lu Ci pulled the handbrake, Sai Sheng completed the drift with an angle almost touching the cliff.

The race car forcefully overtook a car from the Sakura Country team in the narrow forest road.

Zero errors!

From the starting line, Lu Ci was like an emotionless driving machine. His braking points and entry angles on every curve were so precise that they seemed to have been meticulously calculated. He swept through the competition, overtaking the professional drivers who started ahead of him one after another.

……

At this moment, in the main camp of the competition center, on the real-time timing screen area.

Dozens of sports media reporters from around the world are sitting in the audience.

Originally, everyone was focused on the established powerhouses that were considered favorites to win the championship. However, as time went on, everyone's attention was drawn to a name that suddenly appeared at the top of the big screen.

The "Star Car Team" from China.

The timing data on the large screen jumped rapidly.

The number one driver of the Star Team had already surged ahead and taken the lead when the first stage was just halfway through.

What's even more chilling is that his real-time stage time has broken into the best record range in the history of the event. If he continues at this pace, he will break the record.

Even more outrageous is that the team's second driver also made a remarkable comeback at a visible speed, climbing from the bottom at the start to third place.

The media and team managers were in an uproar!

Reporters frantically searched for the "Star Team's" resume, but the information they found showed that the team had been relatively unknown in international competitions in recent years.

But the data on the big screen told everyone that this was a dark horse.

The first day of the competition has ended.

When the results of the competition were announced, Zhao Xingxing was so excited that he started swearing.

On the first day, Team Star swept all six stages, taking first place in every single one!

Lu Ci finished first in all six stages, and Zhao Xingxing also achieved the best result of his career, with his worst result in several stages being fourth place!

Zhao Xingxing looked at Lu Ci, unable to hide her excitement.

These past few months of training have paid off; that "Master" was absolutely worth it!

……

Outside the rest area after the game.

Before Lu Ci could even take off his heavy racing suit, a large group of reporters from various countries, armed with cameras and microphones, swarmed around him and cornered him.

"Mr. Lu! Please look here!"

A reporter from China News, wearing a Tencent News vest, pushed his way to the front with a microphone and quickly asked a question:

"Mr. Lu, I'm a reporter from Tencent News! According to the information we have in China, you are a top singer, and we heard that you recently played the male lead in the super IP 'The Three-Body Problem' TV series. You also regularly do live streams featuring treasure appraisals and run a private restaurant..."

With so many professions, when did you start learning professional racing? Previously, many netizens in China doubted the authenticity of your abilities. Given your amazing achievements today, what would you like to say to those who questioned you?

Lu Ci's lips curled into a slight smile as he faced the flashing lights around him and gave a gentle smile to the camera:

"I think that as a celebrity, you have to set an example for your fans... It's reasonable to know a little bit of everything, right?"
