At that time, she had no idea why either…
Xing Jiuan curved her lips into a smile. Fortunately, she had returned to the starting point, and she did not make the wrong decision again.
Bai Jing walked over and chatted with the two of them for a while before Mu Qing and Lu Mingxi arrived.
Lu Zhichen did not go up to her. He recognized the young lady at first glance, but that girl did not recognize him.
However, it was only right. After all, the little girl was only five years old back then.
Although she had already talked to the Master, Xing Jiuan still felt very restrained when she was with Mu Qing.
She was cautiously nervous.
After all, in her previous life, it had been a long time since the two of them had a proper conversation like this. Even if she had returned to the past, it was impossible for her to change so quickly.
Xing Jiuan was a person who was very sensitive to the environment. The moment she was used to one thing but had to change it, she would feel panicky.
It was not easy for her to get used to living alone with no one by her side. Now that she had the company of her family and friends once again, she still did not dare to touch them. It was like something that could be seen but not touched. She was afraid that they would disappear the moment she got them.
She could not afford for that to happen.
Mu Qing didn’t know what she was thinking. He only felt that this little girl no longer seemed close to him after he had returned. She even seemed to be avoiding him.
She would not tell him what she wanted to do or where she wanted to go anymore.
“Oh, you’re all here. Just perfect…” It was unknown when Sixth Senior Sister had arrived. When she saw Xing Jiuan and Mu Qing, she walked over with a smile. “When will the competition begin? I can’t wait to see our Little 21st’s elegance.”
“Soon,” Xing Jiuan answered.
Sixth Senior Sister didn’t seem very satisfied with Xing Jiuan’s dry reply. She gently pinched Xing Jiuan’s face as if she was extremely helpless.
Not far away, Lu Zhichen watched their close interactions. The hand in his jacket pocket was holding on to the red thread.
Mu Qing naturally noticed and turned to look.
He knew about the leader of the Lu family as well. Although they had never worked together before, he knew some things about the young leader of the Lu family.
However, that person was looking at his little junior sister with a knowing and doting gaze that he was familiar with.
Mu Qing frowned.
Lu Zhichen didn’t care that Mu Qing was looking at him. The competition was about to start, and Xing Jiuan had already gone to the cars with Bai Jing.
Lu Zhichen still did not know how to acknowledge the little girl. The two of them had only spent a few months together when they were young, but he could not forget her even after ten years. When he saw her again, he still recognized her at a glance even though she had already grown up and her appearance had completely changed.
The little girl didn’t seem to be in a good mood.
This wasn’t a regular racing competition. However, with Xing Jiuan’s participation, there were more people who were attending. But not all of them were Xing Jiuan’s fans. Everyone exchanged a few words and their competitive spirit was aroused.
There were a total of eight participants, including Xing Jiuan. Half of them were Xing Jiuan’s fans.
After all, it was organized by Bai Jing. He would not find anyone who had ill intentions toward Xing Jiuan to participate in the competition.
Xing Jiuan had just turned eighteen and already owned this highway.
This place was remote and was not open for public use. It completely belonged to Xing Jiuan alone.
Before she got into the car, she exercised her fingers. The delicate and dashing girl had been a little worried recently. Her eyes were no longer as ostentatious as before, but there was a different kind of beauty to them that made people stunned.
