"Damn, this little girl is too violent."
Lin Yan muttered in his heart, thinking that his own wife was better, gentle and considerate.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't hit me, my grandma, I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll never dare to look again, spare my life!"
Xiao Hei's peripheral vision caught Jiang Qiyan picking up the chain and immediately panicked. This wasn't a whip, it was a metal chain! Getting hit with this would probably peel off a layer of skin!
Xiao Hei kowtowed and begged for mercy, afraid that Jiang Qiyan would swing the chain in her hand.
Fortunately, Jiang Qiyan knew her limits and didn't use much force, just a light swing. But even so, Xiao Hei was in so much pain that he almost fell to the ground. A bloodstain appeared on his back, which was covered by his shirt.
Lin Yan had never seen an engine chain used to beat someone before. He learned something new!
"Alright, I'll let you off this time. If you dare to stare at my grandma again, I'll gouge your eyes out!"
After retracting the foot she had placed on his head, Jiang Qiyan threatened him fiercely. She didn't want to cause further trouble; a lesson was enough. She was afraid of causing trouble for the racing academy.
"Thank you, my grandma, thank you, my grandma!"
Once Jiang Qiyan removed her foot, Xiao Hei could finally lift his head like a human. However, the guy was still terrified, his gaze constantly darting between Jiang Qiyan and Lin Yan. Jiang Qiyan was fine, but he was afraid of Lin Yan retaliating later.
Lin Yan didn't know what Xiao Hei was thinking. With the matter resolved, he left with a group of people from the racing team. Ren Fei wasn't needed, so he had brought him unnecessarily.
"Woohoo, that was so cool! I think Lin Shen looked so handsome when he stood up for us just now!"
Sitting in the car, Jiang Qiyan couldn't help but scream excitedly. It wasn't that Lin Yan looked handsome when he stood up for them, but that Lin Yan always looked handsome when he rode his bike!
Hearing this, Yan Xiaoqiang and the others beside her also agreed.
"But we shouldn't make bets with others so easily next time, or we'll cause trouble for Brother Lin again."
"Yeah, that makes sense. We'll be more cautious next time we come out!"
................................................................
Back in the car, Lin Yan's phone rang twice, and he received two messages.
One was about the completion of the academy opposite the racetrack, and the other was a message from Lin Guoxiong asking him to come home for dinner tomorrow.
Lin Yan had already decided on the two plots of land at the entrance of the racetrack: one to be built into a club and the other an academy. This academy was built by Lin Yan in imitation of his master Boss Luo's academy. After so long, it was finally completed. Now, Yan Xiaoqiang and the others wouldn't have to stay in the office building of the racetrack all the time.
Initially, when there were few people, it was fine for them to stay there. But now that their reputation had spread, people came to the academy almost every day. In just a few days, not counting Yan Xiaoqiang and the others who had been there for months, the new recruits had almost reached fifty. It was not appropriate for them all to stay in the office building. Now, there was a place to arrange them.
Lin Yan replied to Lin Guoxiong and put his phone away.
An hour later.
The car stopped at the entrance of the Ls Nian'an International Racing Circuit. After getting out of the car, Lin Yan didn't return to the racetrack but walked straight across the street.
The high-rise buildings opposite the racetrack, which were previously covered with scaffolding and workers, had now all been cleared. An eighteen-story racing academy stood there, and next to it was a club building of nearly thirty stories.
The buildings were magnificent, designed by a renowned foreign designer in collaboration with architects, as arranged by Zhang Qin. The entire structure was made of silver-white steel plates and covered with high-strength one-way glass. Although it was not as impressive as the Lin family's building, it was quite imposing at the entrance of the racetrack.
Lin Yan led Jiang Qimo, Yan Xiaoqiang, and the others into the academy.
Looking up at the Ls27 Racing Academy with its four Chinese characters and four English letters, Yan Xiaoqiang and the others felt immensely proud, especially the number 27, which represented Lin Shen and China's top level!
Upon entering the academy building, the interior decoration was no less impressive than the exterior, adorned with high-quality materials. The first floor housed a coffee shop and the reception area, the second floor was for reception rooms, and the third and fourth floors were for the restaurant.
"Wow, this restaurant is so big."
"Damn, there are so many windows! Look, there's even a Western food section!"
"Great, I can't wait to eat here."
Although there wasn't a single person in the restaurant yet, the sheer scale of it stunned Jiang Qiyan and the others. This wasn't an academy; it was a hotel! Even the usually taciturn Jiang Qimo had a smile on his face.
The fifth floor to the tenth floor were indoor training areas, equipped with various fitness equipment and simulators. There were over a dozen high-end simulators, and even five simulators used by Lin Yan and other GP drivers for training. These five simulators were on a separate floor, but in Lin Yan's plan, access would require authorization.
General training equipment was fine, but not everything could be treated equally, as this would dampen the students' enthusiasm.
As for the floors above the tenth, they were rest areas and sleeping quarters for the students.
Here, Lin Yan had only one principle: as long as you could bring value to the academy, everything was negotiable.
After touring the facilities, Yan Xiaoqiang and the others were reluctant to leave. They had been quite comfortable living in the racetrack's facilities, and this academy, once built, offered an even better environment than the racetrack's office building.
In addition to the indoor fitness area, there was an outdoor fitness area behind the student building.
Leaving the academy, Lin Yan went to the adjacent club. This thirty-story club was different from other clubs for Lin Yan. In the future, it would mainly be responsible for handling matters related to drivers and sponsors, as well as endorsement deals for Ren Fei and Lun Si. In other words, all money-related businesses would be conducted here.
Once Yan Xiaoqiang and the others had trained for a while and were ready to participate in competitions, Lin Yan could help them contact sponsors and handle endorsement matters. At the same time, the academy would officially enter its commercialization and profit-making phase.
Perhaps thirty stories was a bit excessive, and some floors might be redundant, but Lin Yan felt it was better to do it all at once and make it grand. Since they weren't short on money, they might as well build the biggest one.
It was even possible to move the training base here later on.
There were no people in the club building either, but there should be some in a few days. Lin Yan had already instructed Zhang Qin to recruit staff for both the club and the academy.
Without taking the young ones back to the racetrack, Lin Yan knew they wouldn't want to leave yet. He returned to the track with Ren Fei and the two of them, as the competition was starting next week, and they needed to train diligently.

"You're saying... that man is Lin Shen?... Is this Lin Shen's background very powerful?"
After his two bodyguards, who were restraining the bald Xiao Hei, left, the bald Xiao Hei finally came up to his younger brother.
