Hearing him say that, the other teammates looked at him with confusion.
Even those who were on better terms with Ristass couldn’t help but urge him, "Don’t let your emotions dictate your actions. If Manager Kael and Lu You are done, do you also want to retire with them? Think about your parents at home, they’re still waiting for you to make money for treatments!"
"Yeah! Sticking with Manager Maxi might not earn you as much as before, but it won’t be too little either."
Ristass hesitated, too. His family wasn’t wealthy, and it was purely by luck that he had entered the racing industry.
Following Manager Maxi was indeed the safest option, at least there wouldn’t be any worry about affording food.
But...
Thinking of Chi Gui’s calm and steadfast face, Ristass still sighed deeply, "Thank you all. But the fact that Lu You could be saved was all due to Coach Chi’s drastic efforts... And since she’s that incredible, I’ve decided to trust her this time too."
Seeing that they couldn’t convince Ristass, the others didn’t say anything more and turned away to leave.
After the car drove away, someone couldn’t help but remark, "Ristass is just too rigid in his thinking, doesn’t know how to adapt. With his driving skills, he might have been able to ask Manager Maxi for an opportunity to race in the first team and get a good ranking."
Manager Maxi had his own teams, and even if they switched over to his side now, they could only stay in the second team and slowly move up to the first team through their skill.
Frankly speaking, in this Global League, the club would only aim to stabilise their fan base by helping them get good results during the qualification... As for the official race, it wasn’t even worth thinking about.
While this outcome wasn’t great, it was still much better than staying in Kael’s team where they couldn’t even participate in the races.

But unexpectedly, after he spoke, Lu You’s expression became even more peculiar. freewёbnoνel.com
Seeing this, Kael’s heart ached even more and he went to offer more words of consolation, only to hear Lu You say awkwardly, "It’s not that... Kael, all the wounds on my body... they’re inexplicably a bit itchy... Could you help me scratch them?"
Kael: ??
He got up, lifted Lu You’s blanket, and saw that the wounds which had occasionally oozed blood the night before were now visibly forming scabs...
Kael was astonished, and upon examining Lu You’s other wounds on his upper body, he saw that except for a few large lacerations, the other wounds were healing progressively!!
Kael’s mind went blank in an instant, and his eyes involuntarily shifted to the medicine cup he had placed on the bedside table.
A person’s normal healing speed definitely wouldn’t be so rapid; the only possibility... must be the medicine Coach Chi had sent!
