Night Rose

Tu Ying calmed down for three days. During those three days, he considered all the issues and wavered between a stable small racing team and a racing team with a lot of investment but not owned by him.

I couldn't sleep well for nights on end. Every time I tried to fall asleep, I dreamt that someone stole my money, and the extra numbers on my bank card instantly evaporated, turning into zero!

During this time, Su Jin did not contact him. She had already made her point very clear and did not want to waste any more words or make any better offers.

She has the absolute right to choose; even without this team, she can choose another team to compete in the Schalke Rally.

When Su Jin offered to work as their engineer without pay, Tu Ying should have realized she had ulterior motives.

Zhou Zheng is a very opinionated person. Putting aside the fact that his relationship with Su Jin is obviously unusual to anyone with eyes to see, even if they had no relationship, he might not necessarily stand on Tu Ying's side.

After suffering greatly, Tu Ying closed the tavern and lay upstairs for ten hours before finally jumping out of bed. With his stubble growing haphazardly, he clenched his fists and made his final decision!

The moment her phone rang, Su Jin was applying a face mask.

With her hands covered in a slippery serum, she called out to Zhou Zheng, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, "Zhou Zheng, answer the phone for me."

Zhou Zheng washed his hands and came out of the kitchen, glancing down at his phone. "Tu Ying called. Has he come to his senses?"

"Not necessarily, let's answer the phone and hear what he has to say." Su Jin smoothed the wrinkles on the face mask, her mouth covered by the mask, making it difficult for her to speak clearly.

Zhou Zheng answered the phone and held it out in front of Su Jin.

"Boss Tu, what's wrong?" Su Jin asked carefully, afraid that her face mask would shift.

"Su Jin, I've thought it over seriously. You're right. If we cooperate with them, this convoy will eventually fall out of my hands. Let's cooperate!" Tu Ying shouted with great enthusiasm.

Su Jin smiled smugly at Zhou Zheng, as if she had known Tu Ying's choice all along.

"Alright, Boss Tu, I have no intention of becoming the boss. I'll leave everything outside of my professional duties to you. Things like business entertainment, journalist interviews, and car fleet partnerships—I won't get involved in those kinds of things."

"No problem. I may not know anything about the technical stuff, but I can definitely handle the logistics!" Tu Ying patted his chest and assured him.

Su Jin believed he had the ability. Since winning the Nanyuan Rally, their team had received a lot of attention, and Tu Ying had taken care of all the business matters, leaving them much more relaxed.

"We'll skip the salary discussion and just take a share of the profits. We'll discuss how to split the prize money from the races and the team's profits later."

"No problem, I'll cancel all other collaborations today!"

"Okay, I'll hang up now if there's nothing else. I'm putting on a face mask."

Without wasting any words, Tu Ying hung up the phone and went to call the others. He originally thought Wu Ting would be the most difficult to deal with, but he turned out to be the easiest to talk to. Wu Ting calmly accepted what he said, while the others said a few more words and even tried to raise the price, but Tu Ying refused with a pain in his heart.

Su Jin removed the face mask and went to the bathroom to wash her face.

Zhou Zheng followed closely behind, handing her a washcloth. After she finished wiping her face, revealing her bright, sparkling eyes, he couldn't resist kissing her eyelids.

Su Jin raised her hand to hit him, "I just washed up!"

Zhou Zheng didn't dodge, letting her pound his shoulders. Anyway, she wasn't very strong, and he just took it as a playful moment between lovers.

"Baby, are you really going to invest in a race car for the team? How much are you prepared to spend?"

Su Jin glanced at the tagalong; so that's why it was following her.

Of course, she would invest whatever the company lost. She wouldn't use her own savings to invest; racing is too expensive, and she would never agree to let others invest without a stable investment relationship.

"You know, Top Chain compensated me with some money, which is more than enough to modify a race car, or even buy a good production base car. This time I don't have to be stingy with the cost of parts anymore."

Zhou Zheng sighed. He knew Su Jin was rich, but at this moment, he was still struck hard by the gap between the two of them.

"What's wrong? Feeling sorry for me? Then put in more effort, win a few more championships, let me boost your value, and you'll be rolling in endorsement fees!" Su Jin wrapped her arms around his and pulled him closer.

She stood on tiptoe, wiped his face with her own washcloth, and kissed his chin.

"Endorsement fee?" Zhou Zheng put his arm around her.

Su Jin nodded, "I'll talk to Xiao Pang about the endorsement fee for you and him. The lion's share of the commercial endorsement will definitely go to the two of you. Once Brother Zhou gets the sky-high endorsement fee, then you'll be supporting me."

How could Zhou Zheng not want to take care of her? He wished he could hold her in his hands and carry her around like a treasure.

"Okay, I'll help you earn back the money you spent on racing."

"Not only that, you also have to help me win the rally championship."

Zhou Zheng looked down at her and suddenly asked, "You're so eager to win the Schwarzkopf Rally, is it because of that person?"

Su Jin chuckled and half-pushed, half-shoved the person out of the bathroom.

"Who does he think he is? When I returned to China, I set my goal: to show those who misunderstood me and refused to hire me that I have plenty of skills. Back then, I was overwhelmed by public opinion, and all I wanted to do was climb over them and tell them, 'You're wrong!'"

When Zhou Zheng first heard the news of Sherry's car accident, his reaction was the same as those people online: he thought no company would dare to hire her anymore, and she would probably never make it big.

She will probably fade into obscurity, like most others. She will no longer be the outstanding engineer people talk about, but a menace that everyone avoids.

But Su Jin relied on her tenacity and ability to climb out of the mire and stand in front of everyone again, telling them that not choosing her was definitely a mistake.

Zhou Zheng felt sorry for her experience and kissed the back of her hand.

Fortunately, he had a deep passion for racing, and fortunately, he was standing by Su Jin's side. He wanted to stand at the top with her, to let everyone see that he was standing by Su Jin's side, standing by Sherry's side.

What Su Jin didn't mention to Zhou Zheng was that that person might actually return to China to work at the top chain branch. When they went to participate in the Schwarzmania Rally, they would definitely run into Lu Mingzhou, and maybe his clingy junior sister would also be there.

When two disgusting people get together, the disgustingness is doubled!

After Tu Ying recovered, he met with Su Jin and finalized a series of details regarding the convoy.

Compared to the conditions offered by others, the conditions offered by Su Jin were the most beneficial to the team's development. Tu Ying always understood one principle: he and the other members of the team were friends first, then colleagues; the team's success was the prerequisite for making money.
