A week later, at the Ls Nian'an International Race Circuit, several trucks and buses drove out from the venue. Lin Yan sat in the front two Cullinans. This time, they were heading to the Asian Junior Cup selection race.
Within this week, the Song and Wei families had merged. Song Yi had invested in the Wei Group as a shareholder. With their merger, Lin Yan no longer had to hide within the race circuit as before. Song Yi might not have cared about the Song family's situation to deal with him, but the Wei family patriarch might not dare to.
"Honey, where is the race venue?"
Sitting beside him, Su Moxin typed on her laptop and asked Lin Yan.
"In the northernmost part of our country."
This year's Junior Cup was being held in Country E, specifically on a track bordering China and Country E. Country E occupied a considerable area on Blue Star, vast and wide. It was located north of China, though the climate was rather cold.
Every year, a large number of talented young drivers from Asia would gather here. The Junior Cup, as its name suggested, was a cradle for prodigies; it never lacked talent.
Logically, they should have traveled by plane. The reason for traveling by car was twofold: they had ample time, and they wanted to take the opportunity to see the magnificent landscapes of China.
Their planned motorcycle trip north had been postponed last time; this time, they would do it along the way.

Wei Family Headquarters.
Wei Laosan sat in the main seat, with Wei Shaoting's second uncle beside him, and Song Yi to his left. The gathering of these three middle-aged men was an extremely rare sight in the business world.
Wei Hua was not present. Today's discussion was primarily among these three, or more accurately, initiated by Song Yi.
"Wei Laosan, you told me the merger of the two families was to deal with the Lin family. Now that the Lin family kid has emerged from the race circuit, isn't this a good opportunity? Why aren't your people making a move?"
Seated, Song Yi spoke to Wei Laosan in the main seat, his attitude somewhat aggressive, even bordering on confrontational.
Meeting Song Yi's direct gaze, Wei Laosan chuckled.
"Brother Song, what's the rush? The Lin family young master must have plenty of people around him when he travels. Instead of dealing with him, why don't we target the Lin Group?"
"Don't worry, now that you're at the Wei family, you can stay here with peace of mind. We have a common enemy, the Lin family, and we will deal with them sooner or later."
Wei Laosan wore a smiling facade, but the smile on his face looked increasingly fake.
Hearing this, Song Yi snorted. Although the Lin family kid would undoubtedly have people around him, dealing with them would be far easier than confronting the behemoth that was the Lin Group. To put it bluntly, this fellow was afraid.
Dealing with the Lin Group was, at most, commercial competition. Dealing with Lin Yan, if caught red-handed, would lead to the Song family's downfall. Wei Laosan was well aware of this.
His apprehension was not about Lin Yan's bodyguards but about his influence in China.
Seeing Wei Laosan's passive approach, Song Yi let out a cold snort, stood up, and flicked his sleeves as he left. He felt extremely uncomfortable staying there.
"Have someone keep an eye on the Song family members, don't let him cause any trouble."
"Yes."
Seeing Song Yi off, Wei Laosan instructed Wei Shaoting's second uncle.
The Lin family kid would certainly have ample security when traveling. If they made a big move, and this fellow then manipulated things online, they might not be able to withstand it.
After giving the order, Wei Laosan looked at Song Yi's departing back and sneered. This was the Wei family's territory; how dare he show such displeasure.
"How is the preparation for dealing with the Lin family coming along?"
"Wei Hua is still working on it. It will likely take some more time."
...........................................................................
After leaving the capital, the convoy headed north.
They drove slowly along the highway. The scenery on the road was pleasant, but this was still near the capital. To see the real scenery, one had to reach the northernmost part of China.
Su Moxin was working, while Lin Yan, bored, took a nap leaning against the car seat. When Lin Yan woke up again, it was evening. The sky was dim, and the convoy had entered a city. It seemed they would be spending the night here.
Leaning back in his seat, Lin Yan opened his sleep-heavy eyes and stretched his stiff neck.
"Honey, you're awake?"
Seeing Lin Yan awake, Su Moxin stopped her work and looked towards him, her beautiful eyes blinking.
"Isn't it done yet?"
Lin Yan rubbed his eyes and glanced at the screen of Su Moxin's laptop.
"It's been done for a while. But since you were asleep, I planned to work on tomorrow's tasks as well."
Su Moxin closed her laptop and leaned towards Lin Yan, nestling into his embrace.
"Honey, look, our last video has already passed ten million likes!"
The car slowly moved forward as Li Wei and the others searched for suitable hotels.
"Mm, it seems posting videos occasionally is quite good."
Seeing the likes on the social platform, Lin Yan commented. In his previous life, he often posted things on his social media, which helped increase his fan engagement. Speaking of which, due to his immense wealth now, Lin Yan had become somewhat indifferent to these things.
This was not a good habit. To become a superstar, how could he not interact with his fans?
Lin Yan held Su Moxin in his arms and took a photo, posting it on his social media.
Seeing Lin Yan's public display of affection, Su Moxin quickly took out her phone and liked the photo.
"You should create a new account too. We can share some daily life on it in the future."
This trip, Lin Yan's safety depended on these fans. Since the account was already there, why not post something? If there was nothing else to post, they could share some affection.
After Su Moxin registered her account, the two took another photo and posted it.
Crazy Fan for Love: Heading north with Lin Shen to participate in the competition~ Mwah, mwah, wishing my husband's team victory! ₍˄·͈༝·͈˄*₎◞̑̑
Below was a sweet photo of the two.
Since it was a new account, there weren't many followers yet, and seeing no messages, Su Moxin closed her phone.
