This Childhood Sweetheart is a Little Sweet

Chapter 82

Yi Ming's injury was not severe, which allowed Coach Wu to breathe a sigh of relief, but the mystery remained unsolved—why did Yi Ming suddenly get thrown out of the racecar, leading to his fall and injury?

After returning to the competition venue, Coach Wu saw Liu Xiaoyun and Chen Zeyi who had been waiting for him.

The two boys had already participated in the first round of the competition. Old Wu could not help but feel guilty, as he had missed the moment when he should have been there for them.

"Coach!"

"Coach!"

Seeing Old Wu's return, the two hurried over anxiously, asking with concern, "How is Yi Ming?"

"Yi Ming has woken up, and there's nothing serious to worry about."

Old Wu patted the shoulders of the two boys, then the light in his eyes gradually dimmed. "It's a pity for this kid... After preparing for this competition for so long, he ended up in this situation."

Old Wu felt deeply grieved, sighing one after another.

"Coach, don't worry, we'll complete the competition for Yi Ming."

Liu Xiaoyun pursed his lips tightly. The three of them knew there must be something fishy about Yi Ming's accident, and Coach Wu must have known even more.

Before Yi Ming was out of danger, the most important thing in their minds was for Yi Ming to wake up.

But now that Yi Ming was safe, the next task for them was to complete the competition on Yi Ming's behalf—and drag out the person who had been pulling strings from the shadows, to give Yi Ming an explanation.

In the first round of the competition, Yi Ming was absent due to his injury, but Liu Xiaoyun and Chen Zeyi both successfully advanced.

That evening, the two boys sat on the sofa in Coach Wu's hotel room, their faces solemn. No matter how Old Wu persuaded them to rest, they refused to leave.

Old Wu stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and sighed, "You two have the finals tomorrow, you must get enough sleep today. As for Yi Ming's matter, leave it to me. I won't let him suffer this injury in vain, and I'll make sure the one responsible for the accident gives Yi Ming an explanation."

"No way, Coach. This is not just your matter. We're all Yi Ming's brothers, we can't just stand by and do nothing."

Sometimes, friendship can be so pure that it disregards any competition. Liu Xiaoyun, Chen Zeyi, and Yi Ming may not have known each other for long, but their bond had always been strong.

They could compete on the race track, but in life, they only acknowledged the word "brother."

"In tomorrow's competition, we'll give our all, but whoever is behind this mischief, we won't let them off the hook—let them wait and see."

Chen Zeyi gripped the list of all competition participants in his hand, then crumpled it forcefully and threw it into the trash bin.

After Liu Xiaoyun and Chen Zeyi left, Old Wu stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the bustling traffic outside, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

The Competition Committee staff had already summoned several participants for questioning over their repeated attempts to block others' paths, but that person remained unyielding, insisting that he did not intentionally harm Yi Ming and that his multiple violations were unintentional.

Old Wu frowned deeply, closing his eyes in thought as he recalled the scene he had witnessed in the live broadcast of the competition.

Although that person had indeed repeatedly obstructed Yi Ming's path with obvious intent, Yi Ming had managed to evade the dangerous situations each time.

He had not actually made contact with Yi Ming, so... if he persisted in denying any involvement in Yi Ming's accident, it would be difficult to find concrete evidence to punish him.

If it wasn't him, then why did it happen so coincidentally?

Just seconds after that person committed the violations, Yi Ming's car seemed to have encountered a problem, and in the extremely short time before he could even react, Yi Ming was suddenly thrown out of the car and fell to the ground, sustaining injuries.

Old Wu pinched the bridge of his nose, replaying the scene over and over in his mind.

The competition, the participants, the obstruction, the road, the racecars...

Suddenly, an image flashed in the depths of his mind, and Coach Wu immediately opened his eyes, staring blankly ahead.

The racecar...

If it wasn't that person's actions that directly caused Yi Ming's accident, then the only possibility was that Yi Ming's racecar had been tampered with before the competition, which led to the coincidental malfunction at that moment, resulting in the accident.

With this realization, Old Wu quickly put on his coat and rushed out the door in a hurry.
