Sheng Qi gazed at her, his eyes as deep as the ocean, leaving one to wonder what he was thinking.
Bai Tang continued, "The key point is, that guy Feng Zi actually wanted to provoke you. Isn't that slapping me in the face? Is my beauty someone he can just casually provoke? So, I'm going to teach him a lesson!"
"So, I'm supposed to praise you for that?" Sheng Qi said coldly.
"No need to praise me, it's what I should do!" Bai Tang chuckled. "After all, protecting my beauty is my duty!"
"Besides, I'm sitting here perfectly safe, aren't I?"
Bai Tang lifted her chin, looking smug and seeking approval. "I even sent Feng Zi to the hospital!"
"Feeling proud?" Sheng Qi narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Bai Tang's survival instinct kicked in hard. "...No, not at all!"
"Winning against Feng Zi today was just routine, nothing to be proud of!"
Sheng Qi: "..."
He kicked Bai Tang's casually bouncing foot and warned, "What's with the shaking? Leg cramp?"
Bai Tang coughed lightly, sat up straight, and continued, "Beauty, you need to understand, I wanted to keep a low profile, but my skills just wouldn't allow it!"
Sheng Qi stared at her expressionlessly. "I haven't even praised you yet, and you're already bragging without any pressure."
"People say that giving lots of praise boosts a person's confidence!"
Sheng Qi snorted coldly. "You don't need that."
You're already ridiculously narcissistic!
"I do need it!"
Bai Tang emphasized, "Especially praise from you, beauty—I need that the most!"
Sheng Qi let out a cold laugh at her attempt to change the subject, then pulled it back. "So, before you got in the car, you were already confident you could beat Feng Zi?"
Bai Tang: "..."
Another damn life-or-death question!
"Hard to answer?" Sheng Qi asked.
"Feng Zi is just trash. Isn't it easy to take him down?" Bai Tang said with a smile. "With that fake, polished look of his, he's clearly not cut out for racing!"
"Between Zhang Xiaochu and you, who's stronger?" Sheng Qi suddenly asked.
Bai Tang: "..."
Damn, every question today is a life-or-death one!
"I think if it were a proper track race, Zhang Xiaochu might have a slight edge, like in that club assessment last time!"
Bai Tang said seriously, "But if it's a free-for-all like today, since I'm obviously smarter than Zhang Xiaochu, I'd definitely come out on top!"
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken down Feng Zi!"
Far away in the hospital, Zhang Xiaochu sneezed.
Even hospitalized, he got dragged out to show off his lower IQ!
Sheng Qi stared at her coldly. "You sure have a way with words!"
Bai Tang flashed a bright, harmless smile, looking utterly innocent.
Damn right I have to talk well!
Sheng Qi had been worried about the two of them earlier, so he hadn't delved into how she managed to win the race. But that didn't mean Sheng Qi was a fool who couldn't see the problem.
He just focused on what he thought was most urgent. Once that was resolved, he'd come back to pick apart her moves!
Who was Feng Zi?
In Bai Tang's eyes, she might look down on him, but that didn't mean Feng Zi's skills were actually garbage.
On the contrary, internationally, Feng Zi had won two European F1 championships.
For such a skilled driver to unexpectedly lose to an unknown nobody like Bai Tang—how strange was that?
If it had been a normal race, Bai Tang wouldn't have dared to take it on so easily, because that would have exposed too many issues!
Feng Zi wanted to race her, not to win, but to destroy her!
