Jiang Yue’s professional career came to a screeching halt on the track. Along with his life, it ended amidst a storm of rumors and public condemnation.
As the roll cage shattered and the fuel tank tore away, the roar of the explosion brought a final, stinging realization: his only regret was never having surpassed Duan Xingheng on the circuit,
even after winning thirty Grand Prix titles and a World Championship.
Duan Xingheng was the man who led him into racing, the object of all his youthful admiration and resentment, and the rival who inexplicably walked away from the sport at the peak of his career. If Jiang Yue could do it all over again, he wanted to win. Just once.
Woken by the frantic crackle of the team radio, Jiang Yue is stunned to find himself five years in the past. He is back in the season of Duan Xingheng’s retirement, months before their final falling out.
This time, when Jiang Yue hurls his desperate, drunken questions at his rival, he receives an answer he never expected. It turns out that the man he spent a lifetime chasing had harbored a secret, deep-seated affection for him all along.
