Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In the stands, Gu Ci and Gu Ziyu were squeezed into the crowd, gazing at Lu Zhiyuan in a daze. To everyone, young Lu Zhiyuan was the shining star in their eyes, the most dazzling man in the world.

He drove all women crazy, including Gu Chuyun.

She never understood why Gu Chuyun hated her so much, why she wanted to ruin her looks and hands and make her look neither human nor ghost. It wasn’t until later that she found out that it was because Gu Chuyun loved Lu Zhiyuan.

And Lu Zhiyuan had been secretly in love with her for ten years.

When she was isolated by everyone and felt that the whole world had abandoned her, there was a young man with peerless beauty who had a crush on her for ten years. For her, he gave up his inheritance. When she lost her hands, was disfigured by Gu Chuyun, and fell into the abyss, he bravely protected her under his wings.

In the end, he sacrificed himself to protect her, and they perished together.

However, when they were young, they were always at odds, and Lu Zhiyuan would often insult her, calling her stupid and desperate to please Lu Man and Gu Wenliang. He would always taunt her for being childish and obsessing over whether her parents loved her or not.

Those words of concern always came out as the harshest words, and they would sting her like a hedgehog. But it wasn’t until they fell in love that she understood his heartache, how heartbreaking it was for him to see her stumble and crave for feelings that didn’t belong to her.

“Mom, we’re not very sociable,” Gu Ziyu said softly, bringing Gu Ci back to her senses. In the stands, the audience was shouting Lu Zhiyuan’s name crazily. She and Gu Ziyu were different; they were too quiet. The six-year-old boy next to them shouted until his voice broke, so excited to see the competition. On the other hand, Gu Ziyu was as cold as a doll, just watching the competition coldly.

Gu Ci pondered for a moment. “The key is… You don’t look too much like a baby.”

Gu Ziyu raised his eyebrows. “What do you mean, Mom?”

Gu Ci chuckled and said, “Baby, you haven’t met him yet. He needs to be cuter.”

Gu Ziyu nodded in understanding. “I see, Mommy.”

The next second, Gu Ziyu was like a wild horse that had lost its reins – a small body with a loud voice.

“Daddy, come on, come on, come on… Get rid of them, win the championship! Wow, speed up, speed up, bend, speed up, overtake, yeah yeah yeah, get rid of him, yeah, my dad!” Gu Ziyu shouted excitedly, urging Lu Zhiyuan on the field. Lu Zhiyuan overtook the car at the bend and took the lead, causing the fans to scream in excitement.

Gu Ziyu was even more excited than the fans. His little face was red from shouting.

Gu Ci said, “Baby, you’re scaring Mommy.” She silently put some distance between herself and Gu Ziyu.

Gu Ziyu tilted his head and smiled sweetly. “Am I cute?”

Gu Ci replied, “Baby, although you’re the cutest in the world in Mommy’s eyes, but… You’re really not suitable to walk the path of a cute baby.”

A girl who was a fan of Lu Zhiyuan asked, “Kid, is your dad an F1 driver too?”

“Yes, yes, the most handsome one is my dad,” Gu Ziyu bragged proudly about his father.

The girl said, “Nonsense. The most handsome one is Lu Zhiyuan. The champion is also Lu Zhiyuan.”

“My dad is Lu Zhiyuan,” Gu Ziyu put his hands on his hips and looked proud, leaving the fans speechless.

Gu Ci sounded helpless and amused. “Gu Ziyu, he’s twenty years old this year.”

The idea of having a six-year-old son was amusing in her mind. In her previous life, she fell in love with Lu Zhiyuan after being released from prison. When she gave birth to Gu Ziyu, she was twenty-five, and Lu Zhiyuan was twenty-seven.

Gu Ziyu calmed down, realizing that his father had not reached the legal age of marriage yet.

“Hahahaha, Lu Zhiyuan is also my father. For the past three seasons, every time he played, I would kneel and call him father,” Gu Ziyu said angrily, striking a noble and cold pose.

Gu Ci was speechless, and Gu Ziyu tilted his head and asked, “Does this look like a six-year-old baby?”

Gu Ci subtly remained silent.

On the track, Lu Zhiyuan was being chased by two people from another team. He tried to overtake them in the last lap and almost collided with them. However, he stabilized himself with his big heart. Lu Zhiyuan’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit. They were bright and burning, like the blazing sun. That was Lu Zhiyuan, who was proud of his success. For twenty years, he had stood at the peak, worthy of being the proud son of heaven!

He was the first to cross the finish line and became the champion again. This year, he won the championship in all the races and was the overall champion.

The crowd cheered, and the screams soared into the sky.

Gu Ziyu’s eyes sparkled. He knew how to act like a six-year-old child! He had never seen his father’s living father. His mother knew that he was a little devil. He had to make his father think that he was a cute baby.

After Lu Zhiyuan took off his helmet, he revealed a handsome and flamboyant face. His eyebrows were like a painting, gorgeous and eye-catching. It was a classic work of Nüwa’s creation. There was nothing imperfect about it. He was handsome and had a flamboyant temperament, just like a young man in a hot-blooded manga. He was also a legend in the history of F1.

Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he was the only heir to the Lu family tycoon. Before he was three years old, he was plagued by many disasters. He was critically ill several times and his body was extremely weak. The doctors determined that the young master of the Lu family would not live past the age of 18. The year before his first world championship, he was injured and fractured in training before the game. He almost could not play, but he lived himself into a legend.

Gu Ci held Gu Ziyu’s hand and ran backstage. When Lu Zhiyuan’s security captain, Li Jiang, saw Gu Ci, he was pleasantly surprised. “Miss Gu, are you here to watch Third Young Master’s competition?”

“Why didn’t you follow him?” Gu Ci frowned.

Early in the morning, Gu Ci made a phone call to Li Jiang, instructing him to keep following Lu Zhiyuan. “Third Young Master likes to be alone after competitions,” Li Jiang replied.

Seeing the panic on Gu Ci’s face, he quickly asked, “Miss Gu, is something wrong?” Gu Ci dashed towards the lounge, with six-year-old Gu Ziyu struggling to keep up. Li Jiang was met with a cold stare from Gu Ziyu, who ordered, “Follow her!”

Li Jiang’s heart skipped a beat, but he didn’t have time to question why he had to follow a child’s command. He simply rushed out. Gu Ci had just arrived at the door when she overheard racer Xiao En’s voice. “Ask Gu Ci out tonight. You guys are responsible for getting her drunk. Once the rice is cooked, she’ll be mine.”

“Just a young girl and you’re so infatuated with her?”

“I like her. She’s wild and spicy. After I’m done, you guys can have a turn too,” Xiao En replied, causing several racers to burst into laughter.

The driver burst into laughter, but Gu Ci’s eyes narrowed with hostility. She was about to push open the door when she heard Lu Zhiyuan’s voice. “Sean, you’re asking for trouble!”

Kicking the door open, Gu Ci saw Lu Zhiyuan punching Xiao En to the ground with cold and bloodthirsty eyes. Sean was the runner-up of this year’s competition and was known for his strength. After taking a few punches, he picked up a small bronze statue from the lounge and hurled it at Lu Zhiyuan, leaving the other racers stunned.

“Lu Zhiyuan!” Gu Ci exclaimed in shock as she rushed over to block him.
