Mi Chenxuan burst into laughter, "Mom, can you stop scaring yourself?"
"And you're still laughing! I'll give you something to laugh about!" Yan Zi smacked him twice heavily. "Getting grounded leaves a mark on your record!"
"Oh, oh, so now you suddenly understand the severity! Tingting's my fourth brother's comrade-in-arms, no wait—a good brother who's been through thick and thin. Do you think she'd destroy me?"
To avoid another hit, Mi Chenxuan quickly sat on the sofa opposite his mom before finishing his sentence.
"You're just worrying about nonsense! Even hypothetically, if I do end up with a tarnished record and Shen Ying won't accept me, then I'll just follow my fourth sister-in-law instead. She'll need help when she's racing, right? I'll become one of those pit crew guys like on TV—you know, changing tires at lightning speed. It's so cool! A few seconds and it's done. I'm planning to practice that."
