Episode 21 recap: Lin's mother agreed to let Lin Zhen Dong continue racing.
As Lin Zhen Dong watched the video of his father winning first place, he couldn't help but feel a bit dissatisfied. After all, his goal was to surpass his father and prove that his theories were wrong. Zhang Chi also spoke up, saying that he once wanted to beat Yu Taiang as well. Yu Taiang used to be Zhang Chi's idol and also his teacher.
This time, Yu Taiang's appearance really caused a sensation in the racing world. He even accompanied Hai Xiang to social events at night. Although Hai Xiang drank too much, he appreciated seeing his good friend make an effort. Ye Ke didn't know what was wrong with Zhang Chi's car, so he called Zhang Wei Yi and Ji Xing over. However, when they checked, they found no faults with Zhang Chi's car. The only possibility was that someone had tampered with it while they weren't paying attention. The only strange thing was Lin Zhen Dong's disappearance during that time, which led them to speculate whether it was Lin Zhen Dong's alter ego causing the trouble. However, these were all just guesses and there was no concrete evidence yet.
What they didn't know was that all of this was done by Hong Kuo after listening to Wei Qian Li's words, in order to protect Lin Zhen Dong. That night, when no one was around, Hong Kuo quietly sabotaged Lin Zhen Dong's car. Hong Kuo originally wanted Lin Zhen Dong to join Wan Shi, as Wan Shi had the best equipment. However, Lin Zhen Dong refused.
During this period, Lin Zhen Dong noticed that his alter ego had not appeared, and even after fainting that day, his experience was different from before. When he woke up after that night of unconsciousness, he realized he didn't remember anything. After looking at his phone, he discovered that Hong Kuo was there before he passed out. Lin Zhen Dong also guessed that everything must have been done by Hong Kuo.
Zhang Chi was still examining the car, not knowing what went wrong on the day of the race. Ji Xing, on the other hand, had brought back the inspection report and showed it to Zhang Chi. It turned out to be caused by emulsified engine oil. When Lin Zhen Dong and Hong Kuo were in the car, he intentionally asked Hong Kuo if he wanted to leave Fei Chi Racing Team. This reminded Hong Kuo of when Wei Qian Li asked him to sabotage Zhang Chi's car, with the condition that Lin Zhen Dong would enter Wan Shi as the first priority. This time, Hong Kuo secretly sabotaged Zhang Chi's car for the sake of Lin Zhen Dong.
But now, Fei Chi Racing Team has found a video of someone secretly damaging Zhang Chi's car, although the person is wearing a hat and cannot be clearly identified. However, at this moment, Sun Yu Qiang revealed a bombshell news to everyone, which was that Lin Zhen Dong's father is Yu Taiang.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chi was very angry and felt that Lin Zhen Dong had deceived them. So, he returned to his room with the intention of throwing away all of Lin Zhen Dong's belongings. At that moment, Lin Zhen Dong also returned and faced everyone's anger. He explained that the reason he didn't say anything was because Yu Taiang was an irresponsible father.
It has now been revealed that Hong Kuo was responsible for damaging Zhang Chi's car. When everyone questioned his motives, Hong Kuo claimed it was a spur-of-the-moment act and had nothing to do with Lin Zhen Dong. Sun Yu Qiang was furious and stood up to accuse Hong Kuo, but Hong Kuo felt that everyone was always focused on Zhang Chi, and he just wanted to help Lin Zhen Dong achieve a higher ranking.
Since the incident had occurred, Lin Zhen Dong stated that he would withdraw and asked Li Xiao He to help retrieve Zhang Chi's points. He was willing to bear the consequences together since it was his navigator who had a problem. Just as Lin Zhen Dong left, Hong Kuo was still there, encouraging him, but Lin Zhen Dong did not forgive Hong Kuo.
Shen Xi Ting also learned about the relationship between Yu Taiang and Lin Zhen Dong, so she messaged Lin Zhen Dong. However, Lin Zhen Dong replied that he was no longer with Fei Chi. His initial goal was to surpass his father, but after this race, he realized that he hadn't found the answer. Lin Zhen Dong knew it was time to wake up from his dream.
He returned to the Fei Chi Racing Team, packed his belongings, and left. Everyone was reluctant to see him go, but Lin Zhen Dong was determined to leave. When Lin Zhen Dong arrived home, he found Hong Kuo there too. His mother also expressed that she would use the power of the group to pave the way for Lin Zhen Dong.
Initially, Yu Taiang had sponsorship, but the next day he announced that it was gone. Yu Taiang came to ask Hai Xiang about it and was surprised to find his wife there. This time, she was also one of the sponsors of the race. Wei Qian Li and Yu Taiang appeared friendly during the press conference, but they were secretly competing against each other. When Lin Zhen Dong came over, he even refused to take a photo with his father, despite everyone knowing they were father and son.
Lin Zhen Dong did not disclose his departure from the Fei Chi Racing Team to the public. However, he noticed that Hong Kuo and Wei Qian Li were getting close at the press conference, and Lin Zhen Dong had a rough idea of what was going on. What he didn't expect was for his mother to announce publicly that he would be joining the Wan Shi Racing Team, and both Zhang Chi and Ye Ke were surprised by the news.
