stand shoulder to shoulder

A wisp of smoke curled up from the ashtray, and soon dissipated lifelessly into the air.

"Do you know what it means to be together?" Berlusconi was wearing an extremely simple black T-shirt and overalls, and his tone of voice was flat, but his eyes were extremely cold, "I just want to tell everyone that these two people will not accept other people's pursuit , these two belong to each other."

Tao Li lowered his head, his curved neck was a little pale.

He broke Berlusconi's heart by hastily resorting to foolish tactics.

Berlusconi said sharply: "So do you know how ridiculous what you just said!"

"I'm sorry." Taoli raised his head and apologized, some heat came to his eyes, making him unable to see Berlusconi clearly, but even if it was a hazy shadow, Berlusconi was still an existence that could not be ignored. More expensive red wine is just a dispensable background board.

"Sorry, I'm so useless."

His recovery was too slow, his progress was too embarrassing, and he was still far from success.

Standing next to Berlusconi like this, he may be as dirty and disobedient as the oil splashed on a car, and everyone wants to come up and say a few words.

But he is not as heartless as Smudge, he also has self-esteem, also feels uncomfortable, and wants to be recognized by others.

"I didn't think about it before, I thought it would be good to stay by your side..."

I didn't think clearly.Berlusconi sneered and looked away, his heart ached.Before, he felt that Tao Li was too young to figure out what he wanted. Sure enough, sure enough, this relationship was really a product of not thinking clearly, so he didn't want to make it public.

"Now I think... Stephanie is right, I should—" Taoli lowered his head, trying his best to stabilize his emotions, trying to make it clear to Berlusconi. Looking back, there was only time to see Berlusconi's indifferent back.

"Berlusconi!" Taoli couldn't help chasing after him, and the tall man stepped into the elevator expressionlessly, exuding a terrifying aura that no one should enter.

Taoli wanted to follow the elevator, but Berlusconi fixed him in place with a look of disgust: "Stop talking nonsense to me, I don't want to see you again."

Tao Li stood alone in the aisle, and the draft blew by, taking away the only remaining warmth in his heart.

The elevator door closed slowly, completely separating the two who were once intimate.

·

Taoli waited overnight in Berlusconi's apartment, and Berlusconi did not come back.Whenever he wants to make a call or send a message, he will remember the way Berlusconi looked at him when he was parting, and he put down the phone in embarrassment.

The next day, Stephanie called him to make an appointment to meet and said the apartment was also booked.

Tao Li remembered that he hadn't practiced the car today, so he immediately started to pack his things.

He lived here when he was so scared by the car accident that Berlusconi brought him back in a hurry.Clothes, toothbrushes, these things are all added up here and there, and the time of living is not long, so there are not many things.

The clothes had already been hung together with Berlusconi's, and he had to take them out and look for them one by one, which made him uncomfortable, as if he wanted to pull himself out of Berlusconi's life.

He ended up leaving Berlusconi's apartment without any luggage.

·

Tao Li and Stephanie agreed to meet at the place where he used to practice driving.

Not only Stephanie came, but Apelie.

Stephanie looked like she couldn't do anything about it, and Apelle looked at the car that Tao Li was going to practice later without any scruples.

Stephanie saw that Tao Li's eyes were swollen and he was not energetic, so she said cautiously: "The apartment I found for you is next to Apelie, so he knows..."

Apeli put her hands in her pockets, and said, "I heard that you don't even dare to drive a car, so I came here to see how you look down."

"Whatever, as long as you have a driver's license and you can practice with me." Tao Li opened the door with drooping eyes.

To take a driver's license test here, you not only need a temporary driver's license, but you also need someone with a driver's license to practice with you before you can learn to drive.In the past, Berlusconi came with him, but today Taoli wants Stephanie to accompany him, and Apelie can come, he doesn't care much.

On the contrary, Apeli was a little surprised that Tao Li accepted his sarcasm resignedly.Stephanie sat in the passenger seat, and he took a step back to sit in the back seat.

"Why do you suddenly want to leave Meteor?" Stephanie asked.

Tao Li started the car silently. After a while, he said as calmly as possible: "I realized that what you advised me before was correct. I really should leave Meteor to increase my value."

"Wilson is recruiting new racers." Stephanie said, "The racers from the youth training camp in Hungary did not perform well and were immediately given up. Apeli is also trying to find a way to participate."

Apeli, who was mentioned, rolled down the car window, rested her elbow on the window in violation of the regulations, and looked at Tao Li's side face in the driver's seat. She saw him pursing his lips and said, "I'm not going to Wilson. .”

"Why?" Stephanie asked puzzled.

Tao Li stopped the car, stared at the ice cream cone in the car mirror, and answered absently: "I bumped into Fisker, Fisker vacated the seat, and then I sat in it again? That's too bad. "

Although everyone knew that Taoli was not responsible, and thought that anyone whose car passed the blind turn at that moment would hit Fisker who made a mistake, after all, it was Taoli who hit Fisker.

Stephanie understood, and said regretfully: "The timing of your departure is too unfortunate..."

Apeli asked casually: "Is there no other team that needs a driver?"

"No more," Stephanie glanced at Apelie in the rearview mirror, sat up straight suddenly, and said in surprise, "Wait! Whoever is selected by Wilson will have his seat vacant!"

Before Tao Li could speak, Apeli began to dislike her: "No way, picking up a seat that others don't want, no matter what this brat did, he didn't make it this far."

Tao Li was still looking in the car mirror, sweating on his brow, not listening to them at all.He timidly let go of the steering wheel, and Berlusconi's disgusted eyes flashed in his mind. He pursed his lips and gripped the steering wheel again.

Stephanie turned around and started arguing with Apeli in the backseat: "Wilson likes emerging racing talents, and the car and team that can make the driver emerge must be above the passing line. This is much better than the low-level team! "

While they were discussing, Tao Li drove the car back to the original position, and the lines on the young face in front of him were tense.

Apelle asked, "Like my car?"

Stephanie nodded: "Yes."

"Stephanie, can you go down there?" Tao Li suddenly turned around, interrupting their conversation.

Stephanie was surprised: "What?"

"You stand there." Tao Li pointed at the ice cream cone on the side of the road with his slender fingers, "Then I'll drive past you, once is enough."

Stephanie looked at the distance between the ice cream cones on both sides, and said with some trepidation: "That seems to be an extremely narrow parking space...won't it run over me?"

Tao Li's short hair was drenched in sweat. He said: "I used to be scared too, but now I promise I won't. Just trust me once."

A gleam of fear flashed in Stephanie's eyes.

Appelle looked at Stephanie, then at Taoli, who bit his lower lip.

"What's so difficult about it." Apeli in the back seat opened the car door, her expensive sneakers stepped on the asphalt without hesitation, "I'll do it."

Apeli slammed the door, strode to the orange ice cream cone and stood still.

Stephanie hesitated to speak.

Taoli wanted to tell Apelle to go a little further, but the distance was a bit far away. He guessed that Apelle could not hear him. He asked Stephanie to call Apelle to turn on the speakerphone, just like he and Berlusconi often did. like that.

"Move forward a little bit." Tao Li's own voice trembled a little. "Flush with the rim of the cone."

Stephanie rubbed her fingers nervously in her right hand.

Only Apeli moved forward a little, and asked calmly: "Is this okay?"

"Okay." Tao Li said, licked his lips, and slowly put his hands on the steering wheel. "Put your phone back, I'm going to start."

Apeli did so, and then turned her head to look at Tao Li's car.

"Don't be afraid, I will never hit you." Tao Li murmured as he started the car, crystal beads of sweat dripped from the tip of his hair, and a tiny dot was spotted on Tao Li's white T-shirt.After a while, another transparent bead of sweat condensed on this hair tip, and during Taoli's driving process, it landed slowly and precisely on the dot that was wet just now, without the slightest deviation.

Stephanie sat in the co-pilot's seat with trepidation until the car came to a stop before she dared to look back at the two rows of ice cream cones that had just passed by.

Tao Li, who drove the vehicle to complete the task, was panting heavily, his chest rising and falling.

Stephanie hurriedly opened a bottle of mineral water for Tao Li, and Tao Li poured it all into his stomach with his head raised. A little water hung from the corner of his lips and flowed over his clear and sharp neck.

The cold water seemed to flow through his limbs and bones. Tao Li slowed down and wiped his sweat with his arms up. There was more determination between his wet brows. He turned to Stephanie and said, "No matter what you ask me to try, If there is a convoy, I will definitely be able to get in."

"Isn't this nonsense?" Apeli's voice came from outside. Not long after, he stood in front of the window next to the driver's seat, with one hand in his pocket, and said disgustedly, "You dare to drive, what other team is there?" don't want you."

·

After the car practice, Taoli went back to Berlusconi's apartment. Nuoda's house was empty. He walked around and saw Berlusconi's cell phone left by him at the bar last night.

On the other side, Stephanie asked someone from the moving company to pack up Taoli's dormitory items, stuff them into the van, and then called Taoli: "Come back quickly, we are leaving."

Stephanie waited for about four or 10 minutes, and finally waited for the distraught Taoli, and they got into Apelie's car together and headed to the new apartment.

Two days later, Stephanie learned through internal information that Wilson had paid a high liquidated damages for Samli, and Samli officially terminated the contract with Marcus, and she immediately contacted the people on Marcus' side.

On the same day, Stephanie took Tao Li to Marcus for a test drive.

Tao Li ran three laps on the British track where he had an accident, and just set a time that was 1.33 seconds faster than the fastest lap of the two drivers of Marcus at that time, Marcus's boss couldn't wait sign the contract.

People in Marcus who knew about this incident were very happy. For more than ten years, they have always been the ones who washed the sand, washed out a piece of gold, and then was poached by Wilson. This is the case for Yagier, Hope, and Samley.This is the first time that Jin Jin came to the door on his own initiative, with full sincerity, and the price was within the range of Marcus.

Half an hour after Tao Li's autograph was signed on the contract, they announced the great news on various platforms, blowing up the entire racing circle.

There are all kinds of things on the Internet. Commentator A who likes Tao Li very much wrote a long passage on his social account. The main meaning is: popular fried chicken shooting star, wealthy Wilson, you don’t choose these, you choose How can you marry such an old poor little Marcus! ! !I don't allow you to be his prince's matchmaker!

Marcus was so angry that he said he would sue him first, and then presented the data to reason.

First, Marcus's F1 racing toy has been ranked No. 1 in the children's toy gold list for five consecutive years!This is invincible all over the world!

Second, so far, Marcus's brand cars with the same name are among the top three in global sales!What is Wilson who only has a supercar line, and what is a Meteor who doesn't even turn on the car line!

Thirdly, another driver of Marcus is indeed the son of the boss, but he absolutely obediently tested the tires and accessories for Tao Li. Tao Li is the unshakable No. [-] driver of Marcus!

Fourth, 20 years ago, Marcus cultivated the world champion!This year is also about to reproduce its glory!

Marcus declared his "noble blood", just after the majestic finish, the boss Barron weakly called Tao Li: "Tau Li... our Marcus is really good, those who want to replace you Teams that pay liquidated damages are not good..."
