Tang Li pointed to his chest:
"Ex-husband, isn't this distance a bit too much for a man and woman to touch?"
Huo Chenyu grabbed her hand:
"Shouldn't you tell me the truth? When did you start racing?"
Huo Chenyu felt uneasy about the sudden announcement that he was going to participate in racing.
Tang Li snorted coldly:
"Is your mind still stuck in an era of prejudice against female drivers?"
Huo Chenyu was genuinely worried about her.
"It's not prejudice, nor is it treating you like a child who needs protection, nor is it a lack of understanding or support for you. It's simply because, in this world, I can give up everything else, wishing only for your safety."
Divorced men are just different.
Sweet words are like honey, given away for free.
In the past, Tang Li would have already retorted.
But tonight, perhaps it was the moon's fault, she suddenly rediscovered the sweet moments she had shared with the man before her.
At first, Tang Li liked to shoulder everything on her own.
She was just being given a hard time by a senior student. She could have handled it herself, but when he found out, he flew from Tanzhou to Jincheng overnight just to support her.
Just like now, he simply didn't know how capable she really was, or whether she needed his help.
"Don't worry, because I don't know the opponent's strength, I can't guarantee whether I can win, but I can assure you that no matter whether I win or lose, I will come back safe and sound, healthy and unharmed."
The most common thing adults do is to let their loved ones know they are safe.
Regardless of whether the road ahead is bumpy or not.
Huo Chenyu's eyes reddened as he handed her the printed documents that were on the bedside table:
"I had Jiang Mian collect all the information about Han Ruoling. Back then, Song Xiling became my mother's apprentice, and Han Ruoling was adopted by a childless couple and settled abroad. That couple had a very good friend who was a great race car driver. Over the years, Han Ruoling has won countless awards, and her strength should not be underestimated."
Logically speaking, it would be impossible to invite a master like Han Ruoling to participate in this race held in Tanzhou.
If Song Xiling hadn't been bullied, Han Ruoling would never have returned to China.
What Tang Li noticed first was not Han Ruoling's information, but that Huo Chenyu had actually printed out all of it.
She thanked him and joked:
“I remember you used to like sending me things directly via WeChat.”
So several times, Tang Li was so busy writing and updating that he forgot to open the files Tang Li sent him and check them carefully.
Huo Chenyu lowered his head:
“I went to Tang Sui to learn more about you, but she rejected me with the words ‘it’s too late.’ Later, I went to Jing Jiu, but she was unwilling to help me at first and even gave me a severe scolding.”
During the years they were together, he certainly took a shortcut in love.
He thought that as long as he loved her enough, he could make her feel happy.
But they overlooked what she truly wanted.
"After you left, I realized how inadequate I was. Jingjiu said that you used to spend so much time hunched over your desk that you rarely read ebooks; your bedside table was always filled with physical books. You loved all things written down, while I used to..."
I used to find it troublesome.
After getting used to a fast-paced life, we unconsciously incorporate everything around us into our hurried pace.
It was only after he resigned from his position as president of the Huo Group that he slowly rediscovered the feeling of being alive.
Seeing his dejected and self-reproachful state, Tang Li couldn't bear it and waved the documents in her hand, saying:
"Although belated affection is worthless, you have learned from your mistakes and made some corrections. I believe you will get better and better in the future and will know more and more how to love others."
Huo Chenyu opened his mouth, but Tang Li quickly spoke first:
"Your information arrived just in time, Mr. Huo. Thank you. I'll take a look at it first. It's so late, you should go back to your room and get some sleep."
It's obvious even to a fool that Huo Chenyu is trying to show his loyalty again.
Tang Li flipped through the documents, then pointed to Han Ruoling's name in surprise and said:
"She also used an alias!"
Huo Chenyu nodded:
"Just like when you write a book using a pen name, her adoptive parents didn't support her racing at first, so she used a pseudonym when she participated in her first race. Unexpectedly, she became famous at a young age, and she has been using this name to participate in races ever since."
Tang Li smiled knowingly. So, it turns out they had similar experiences.
However, her name...
"Swift as the wind".
Tang Li read it aloud, then couldn't help but laugh:
"A good name, like lightning, is indeed fast."
That's a good name.
"only..."
Tang Li stopped halfway through her sentence.
Huo Chenyu stared at her: "But what?"
What a coincidence!
Considering that she had kept her identity hidden for so long, Tang Li left a cliffhanger: "It's nothing, I just think she's good at naming things. Ex-husband, thank you again for the information, but it's very late now, you can take the information back and study it slowly."
Upon seeing Han Ruoling's name as a participant, Tang Li already had a good idea of what was going on.
Huo Chenyu took the documents and looked at Tang Li with surprise:
"You're not going to watch it anymore?"
As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated." It's always better to know more than to be blindly ignorant.
Tang Li had already lay down comfortably:
"There's nothing to see here."
However, Tang Li then wondered, "Why did you only investigate Han Ruoling's information? What about Song Beiye's? Just how capable is that guy?"
