How Could We Not Watch It Together?

Gu Zhiyue stayed home until past two, when Zhao Wanling called to say she had already sent someone to pick him up by the roadside five or six hundred meters from his house.

Gu Zhiyue grabbed his phone and sun-protective jacket and headed out, walking beneath the trees shading the sidewalk. The five- or six-minute walk passed quickly, and a silver-and-black Ferrari with a familiar license plate stood by the road.

The window slowly lowered, revealing Gu Tingchuan in the driver's seat.

"Big brother? What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to take you to the circuit. Get in."

Gu Zhiyue sat in the passenger seat and buckled his seat belt. Gu Tingchuan started the engine, lightly pressed the accelerator, and drove off.

After watching the scenery outside for a while, Gu Zhiyue turned to Gu Tingchuan. "Big brother, has third brother competed in many races?"

Gu Tingchuan thought for a moment. "A dozen or so, big and small. But this one's a major race, more important than any of the previous ones."

Gu Zhiyue nodded in understanding. No wonder Tong Ziyi chose to act now. The previous races were too small, and he was afraid he wouldn't be able to kill my third brother.

Gu Tingchuan's grip on the steering wheel abruptly tightened, and his brows unconsciously drew together.

Gu Zhiyue didn't notice anything unusual about Gu Tingchuan and continued talking to Xiao Jiu. If third brother's race car turns out to be the one that's been tampered with, what do you think my chances are of holding him back and stopping him from racing?

Xiao Jiu analyzed it. The success rate might be 99%. The remaining 1% is the chance that Gu Shuoyan might put up a little resistance.

Then I'll just knock him out and carry him off. Luckily, his turn comes fairly late. It's not like I can easily warn him. Otherwise, it'd be so much better to just tell him outright. We wouldn't have all this trouble now.

After listening the whole way, Gu Tingchuan had pieced everything together. Someone wanted to use his third brother's race as an opportunity to harm him, and that person was a longtime close friend of his third brother.

No wonder his third brother had said yesterday that he wanted to prepare an extra backup car, and their parents had said some inexplicable things too. They had already learned from their youngest brother that there would be danger today.

It was a shame he had come back a few days late, or he could have heard about this too. Still, it wasn't too late now.

They reached Huanyao Circuit over an hour later. Ticket checks had begun more than ten minutes earlier. The two joined the line and entered the spectator grounds in less than ten minutes.

They didn't linger in the spectator area. Gu Tingchuan took Gu Zhiyue to the pre-race waiting area to find Gu Shuoyan. Gu Jiangfeng and Zhao Wanling were there too.

Gu Zhiyue asked, "Third brother, where's your car?"

Gu Shuoyan casually raised a hand and pointed behind him. "Over in the parking area. I'll drive it out when it's my turn."

Xiao Jiu lay sprawled on Gu Zhiyue's head. Host, Tong Ziyi has already brought that mechanic inside. He's very familiar with Gu Shuoyan's car and has started getting ready to tamper with it.

Gu Zhiyue raised a hand and rubbed his nose. Let me find an excuse to sneak over and take a look. I'd better bring third brother along. It is his car, after all.

The other three felt a little dejected. Why wasn't he taking them along too?

"Third brother, I'd like to see your race car. Would that be okay?" Gu Zhiyue looked expectantly at Gu Shuoyan, who snapped his fingers. "Of course. Come on, I'll take you there right now. Never mind looking-you can even get behind the wheel and take it for a couple of laps."

"Okay!" Gu Zhiyue agreed readily, while inwardly keeping up a stream of complaints. That's one generous offer I don't dare accept. Someone's about to remove the brake parts. Wouldn't getting in be speeding straight through my life?

The two headed toward the parking area together, with the other three quietly trailing behind. Gu Tingchuan had struggled with himself at first, but in the end, he couldn't resist the urge to follow and watch the action, so he quietly went along too.

Gu Zhiyue followed Gu Shuoyan to the parking area at the back. The area was lit, and the competing cars stood neatly in their spaces. Dozens of cars stretched out before them, all in different colors and models.

Gu Shuoyan pointed at a sapphire-blue Lamborghini parked near the middle. "That's my car. I'm twenty-sixth in the lineup."

Gu Zhiyue pulled Gu Shuoyan around to a car on the other side and crouched down to hide. Just as Gu Shuoyan was about to ask what was wrong, two people entered through the stairwell entrance on the other side.

The one following behind wore a cap and a mask that hid his face and carried a toolbox. There was no need to guess who the person in front was-it had to be Tong Ziyi.

Gu Zhiyue and Gu Shuoyan's hiding place was hard to spot, and they could clearly hear the pair's conversation.

The mechanic followed Tong Ziyi briskly past the parked cars, then stopped in front of Gu Shuoyan's sapphire-blue Lamborghini.

Tong Ziyi pointed at the car. "This one. Wreck its brakes for me."

"Are you sure you want to do this? This car doesn't look cheap. What if someone finds out we damaged it?"

Tong Ziyi sneered. "Finds out? He'd have to live long enough first. Don't worry. I've already had someone turn off the surveillance cameras. Half an hour should be enough, right?"

The mechanic nodded. "Enough. I'll remove the brakes now, just like you asked. But if anything happens afterward, I'm not responsible. You're the one who told me to do this."

"Of course."

The mechanic opened his toolbox, took out his tools, and crawled under the car to get to work.

Gu Zhiyue's phone had already been recording video for ten minutes. These new phones really are good. The picture's still so clear even zoomed in this far, and the sound pickup is amazing too.

In less than half an hour, the mechanic emerged from beneath the car and wiped his face. "It's done. When are you giving me the money you promised?"

Tong Ziyi smiled. "What's the rush? It's only a million. Would I cheat you out of it? Still, a million isn't a small sum. It'll take some time to transfer it to your account."

"All right, then. Just remember to pay me."

Tong Ziyi led the mechanic out of the parking area. Only after the two had gone far away did Gu Zhiyue and Gu Shuoyan emerge from their hiding place.

Gu Shuoyan clenched both fists tightly in anger, his eyes seeming ready to spit fire. Although he had long known Tong Ziyi would harm him, seeing it with his own eyes still left him unable to control his anger.

Tong Ziyi really had hidden it well.

Gu Zhiyue saved the video and sent it to Gu Shuoyan. "Third brother, what happens next is up to you. I have something else to do, so I'll head off first."

Gu Zhiyue waved and left through the entrance. Gu Jiangfeng and the other two quietly came up behind Gu Shuoyan.

"Why did Xiao Yue leave?"

"Maybe he has something important to do?"

Gu Tingchuan glanced at the entrance, then turned to Gu Shuoyan. "You have the evidence. What do you want to do next?"

Gu Shuoyan put his phone back in his pocket. "There's still plenty of time before my race. Besides, there's an LED Screen in the spectator grounds that broadcasts the race live in ultra-high definition, with a full three-hundred-and-sixty-degree view and no blind spots. This video's a rare sight. How could we not watch it together with everyone?"

Gu Jiangfeng chuckled and nodded. "That's a good plan. When dealing with an enemy, you have to cut off every avenue he has to argue his way out."

After leaving the parking area, Gu Zhiyue left Huanyao Circuit. The mechanic had already received the enormous sum of one million. After parting ways with Tong Ziyi, he was now preparing to drive home, pick up his wife and children, and move somewhere else.

Host, that mechanic is a little over five hundred meters away. He's about to get into his car. Head left, host. Just run over and stop him within three minutes.

Okay, no problem. Gu Zhiyue pushed up his sleeves and broke into a run.
