“No, you have to promise me first. You can never tell another soul about this, or the consequences will be dire!” Pei Yutang whispered.
“Perhaps you shouldn’t tell me then.” Lin Yan shrugged nonchalantly.
Pei Yutang was taken aback by her response. Evidently, he hadn’t expected Lin Yan to say that.
“Eh, Sister-in-law! Why are you being like this? Forget it, I’ll tell you!” Pei Yutang moved towards Lin Yan again.
“Say it,” Lin Yan snapped impatiently.
“Sister-in-law, you’re also considered a part of the racing industry. You should have heard of the Race Track’s Grim Reaper, Yeva…” Pei Yutang whispered into her ear.
Lin Yan had never thought that Pei Yutang would mention Yeva. Why would he want her to keep a secret about Yeva?
“Yeah, I’ve heard of her. Why?” Lin Yan nodded.
“Sister-in-law, let me recap for you. The Race Track’s Grim Reaper, Yeva, is the champion of the first level of the international competition. She groomed Lang Mang and Death Knight!” Pei Yutang spoke earnestly.
The corners of Lin Yan’s mouth twitched as she interrupted him. “I know all this. What is your point?”
“Sister-in-law, the Race Track’s Grim Reaper retired some time ago and there has been no news of her. Aren’t you curious about the whereabouts of the fastest racer in history after her retirement?” Pei Yutang sparkled as he peered intently at Lin Yan.
As he scrutinized Lin Yan, she began to feel flustered. Could this kid… have discovered her identity?
Logically speaking, he shouldn’t have.
When had she exposed herself?
Could it be Qi Shaoyuan?
“Errr… Where is she?” probed Lin Yan softly.
“Ha ha! Sister-in-law, let me tell you something! The Race Track’s Grim Reaper has appeared! She is right in front of us!” Pei Yutang yelled excitedly.
Lin Yan sighed heavily after she heard Pei Yutang.
Indeed, her identity had been exposed. But how had Pei Yutang managed to discover her identity?
“You… How did you know? Who told you?” Lin Yan stared at Pei Yutang while raising her eyebrows.
“I heard it from my friend.” Pei Yutang deliberated for a moment before he answered.
“Your friend? You mean Qi Shaoyuan?” asked Lin Yan.
“Qi Shaoyuan? Who is that?” Pei Yutang looked puzzled.
“It wasn’t Qi Shaoyuan?” The only person who knew about her was Qi Shaoyuan. However, if Qi Shaoyuan wasn’t the one who had betrayed her, who else could it be? Could someone else have discovered her identity?
“Sister-in-law, let me tell you something. My friend and I have received an invitation to attend a private dinner in three days. Currently, the Race Track’s Grim Reaper, Yeva, is in the capital city. However, she has never appeared in public! This exclusive news is only meant for a minority of us,” Pei Yutang replied.
“Huh?” Lin Yan was confused.
So she had been mistaken. Pei Yutang didn’t know about her. He was talking about something else…
“I think I understand what you’re trying to say.” Lin Yan watched Pei Yutang and said slowly, “You’re saying that you have received an exclusive invitation to a private dinner that Yeva will be attending too.”
