After the phone call, Ren Junyun put the ticket on the table and took out a photo frame from the drawer. Looking at the person in the photo wearing a racer's helmet and a pair of black eyes, the man's eyes were slightly red.
"A Dian, don't worry... we will definitely find him."
Putting the photo frame back in the drawer, Ren Junyun's eyes fell on the ticket on the table again.
Maybe it's not a bad thing to go to a game.
On Saturday, the F2 opener race.
The manager of the Lightning team was also immersed in the joy of qualifying on Friday. Both drivers of the team achieved good results. Howard started from pole position, and Xu Xizhou also performed well and took the fifth place in the qualifying. , is expected to sprint to the podium.
"Xu, you must stabilize your mentality later, as long as you get the points, don't put too much pressure on yourself, okay?"
Before getting into the car, the team manager comforted him.
Xu Xizhou gave him an OK gesture. He sat in the driver's seat, put on his helmet, and took a deep breath. In the crowd not far away, a figure in a smoky gray suit was particularly conspicuous. He could feel that Zhuang Jingchun was looking at him. He smiled slightly and gave a thumbs up in that direction.
The five red lights went out and the race officially started.
From the first corner, the friction was constant, and it was clear that many drivers had not yet adapted to the new cars of the season. Xu Xizhou seemed to be at ease. He rushed out of the chaos of Turn 1, and after reaching the straight, he took advantage of the wake ahead and passed the car in front smoothly.
The engineer's surprised voice came over the radio.
"Xu, you've done a great job. In front of you is Black from the Trey team. If you surpass him, you will be on the podium."
Looking at the familiar orange-red racing car in front of him, Xu Xizhou narrowed his eyes slightly. Blake, who was in front of him, naturally sensed his intention. Every corner stuck him tightly, not giving him any chance to overtake. The two cars drove out of the corner several times in a row. The scene was very exciting. thrilling.
Zhuang Jingchun stared nervously at the silver racing car on the screen, her palms slightly wet.
After two laps, Blake and Xu Xizhou were still biting each other tightly. The two of you are chasing after me, and there is no difference between them. Xu Xizhou could almost imagine Blake's expression at this time, the guy must be gnashing his teeth, his face full of anger.
He simply gave up overtaking from the inside and cut to the outside without making a sound. Blake was smugly thinking that he had gotten rid of Xu Xizhou, when a touch of silver pierced his field of vision in the rearview mirror.
Blake was shocked, at such a tricky angle, Xu Xizhou didn't even rush out of the track. Is this guy really nirvana? !
Seeing Xu Xizhou throw off the orange-red racing car, there was a burst of applause and cheers in the paddock.
In the VIP box, Ren Junyun in a black suit stood in the stands and applauded.
The special assistant introduced to him, "This No. 18 is Xu Xizhou. He has just turned 18 and is the only Chinese driver in F2. He won the podium last year. It is said that he hopes to enter F1."
Although sitting in the VIP box, you can watch the race up close, but all the racers wear helmets, and Ren Junyun can't see everyone's faces. It was just inexplicable, the silver figure seemed to overlap with a figure in his memory.
"Is it only eighteen years old? So young." The man sighed and put down the telescope.
"Make arrangements. After the game, I want to invite this little Xu to a meal. Ask him if he has time."
"Yes, Mr. Ren."
There are five laps left in the race.
Blake is still chasing after him, and Xu Xizhou's goal has become the second place, Edward of the unique team.
There was only that blue tint in his eyes, lap after lap, he kept refreshing his fastest lap time, seeing the distance between the two cars getting closer, suddenly, he heard a click, followed by a A pungent smell spread.
"Xu, it's a fuel leak..."
"I'm sorry...you need to slow down and stop immediately."
Xu Xizhou's mind was blank for a few seconds. He clearly felt that the vehicle was losing speed, but the fuel was leaking... How could he have encountered such a problem?
He is clearly one step away from reaching the podium!
Xu Xizhou parked the car in the buffer zone and sat blankly on the isolation belt. In the rear-view mirror, one racing car after another racing past.
Before long, the engineer's excited voice came over the radio.
"Howard got first place, great!"
Xu Xizhou turned off the radio and watched the maintenance car tow the car away. He took off his gloves, ripped off the water pipe from his body, and walked back to the P room.
The team manager patted him on the shoulder regretfully and comforted him, "Xu, don't be discouraged, it's not your fault. I will communicate with the technical department about today's problems."
Xu Xizhou was just silent, still wearing his helmet, he walked into the lounge alone.
He sat on his knees for a while before realizing that there was another person in the lounge.
"Howard won the first place, aren't you going to celebrate with them?" His tone was muffled and nasal.
Zhuang Jingchun didn't speak, just walked up to him, leaned over and took off his helmet.
Xu Xizhou subconsciously didn't want him to see his face, so he lowered his head and covered his eyes with his hands.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you," he said in a low voice.
"I'm not disappointed, on the contrary, I think you did a great job today, especially when you passed Black at turn nine."
"Really?" Xu Xizhou looked up at him in disbelief.
There was no light on in the lounge, the curtains were half drawn, and in the dim light, Zhuang Jingchun could clearly see the tears in Xu Xizhou's eyes.
In an instant, his heart seemed to be hit hard by something.
Zhuang Jingchun said with some difficulty, "Really, I..."
At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly interrupted the two of them, "Xu, are you inside? Someone wants to see you."
Chapter 022 He's jealous
Hearing the voice of the team manager, Xu Xizhou quickly wiped the corner of his eyes and stood up from the seat.
