Night Rose

Lu Mingzhou turned around and met Su Jin's gaze.

Su Jin didn't shy away at all; instead, she waved to him in a "friendly" manner. Tu Ying followed her example. You can't hit a smiling face, so he didn't care about anything else and just smiled first.

Lu Mingzhou's expression was cold. He had already given Su Jin a chance to come back to him, but Su Jin did not cherish it and instead chose that younger brother, which made him particularly angry.

"Please move it!"

"She probably didn't explain things clearly to you. The reason we moved this poster is because Xu Jingyi put our poster behind the pillar, so it's completely invisible. Is that respectful to the participating teams? Is this appropriate for the top chain or the organizer? If you think it's appropriate, then I'll send an email to headquarters to give feedback." Su Jin handed over her phone, showing the video she had taken.

Always keep evidence; this is the most important thing she learned in her career.

Xu Jingyi pursed her lips. "Brother Lu, she's framing me. I didn't put it there."

"No matter who put this here, you can just take it out and put it aside. Why are you trying to take up space from the top banner poster? Are you doing this on purpose?" Lu Mingzhou shouted.

"Don't think you're right just because you're loud! Why are you yelling at Su Jin? If you're so tough, come at me!" Tu Ying reached out and blocked Su Jin, protecting her behind her.

Lu Mingzhou's eyes swept over Tu Ying and Su Jin, a hint of mockery in them. "What? You've found another man so quickly? Anyone will do, is that it?"

Tu Ying had no idea about the complicated relationship between them, but after hearing what he said, she suddenly felt like she had become Su Jin's mistress.

"You can talk nonsense about food, but please don't talk nonsense! Su Jin and I are completely innocent, and my dirty eyes see everything as dirty."

"Lu Mingzhou, how come I never realized you were this kind of person?" Su Jin sneered, not wanting to say anything more to him. "Since you're just a staff member, please handle this strictly by business. If you don't let us put it there, then send the video to headquarters and let's see who's right and who's wrong."

Xu Jingyi was fired from headquarters and only managed to get a position in a branch thanks to Lu Mingzhou's connections. Naturally, she dared not get involved in anything related to headquarters again.

"Brother Lu, forget it. If we can't afford to offend her, can't we at least avoid her?"

Lu Mingzhou stormed off, and Xu Jingyi chased after him. When she looked back at Su Jin, her eyes were practically spitting fire.

Su Jin calmly sat down and took a sip of the hot milk tea.

"Sister Su, you know this person too? He looks like an old acquaintance?" Tu Ying asked humbly, trying to gather information.

Su Jin chuckled, "Two mortal enemies."

Good heavens, the top-tier team is actually under the control of Su Jin's arch-enemy. It's hard for them not to be targeted.

"They should be alright, right?" Tu Ying muttered to herself.

The two people he was worried about were preparing in the starting area, having changed into racing suits, put on helmets, and were ready to get in the car.

They have no support staff and basically do everything themselves, helping each other out when things go wrong.

In this bustling departure area, they were quite unique.

The other drivers greeted them with a fist bump. During their stay at the hotel, they had seen most of the convoys, as well as some they had never seen before, though they had also seen them in Su Jin's analysis data.

There are many strong opponents in this competition; they only need to keep an eye on the two teams most likely to win the championship.

One team is a top-tier chain team, and the other is the professional cycling team "Siren".

In such weather, no one was used to it. Due to the special geographical conditions, other teams did not have the opportunity to practice on the track. On-the-spot performance became a key factor in determining whether they could win the championship.

Qian Ke led his men in a grand procession, and as soon as they arrived, a large area around them automatically cleared out, showing that many people were unwilling to deal with him.

Young people who enjoy racing each have their own temperaments, and it's easy for them to clash with people whose personalities don't align with theirs. They don't want to clash with Qian Ke on such an important day as the road survey, so they simply avoid him.

Only Zhou Zheng and Wang Tianle remained standing there, while everyone else watched the show from a distance.

"Zhou Zheng, right? Be careful when you're surveying the road. I'm right behind you, so don't drive too slowly." Qian Ke's words seemed like a well-intentioned reminder, but they were actually a declaration of war.

Road scouting isn't a race; everyone should just drive slowly and carefully record the road conditions.

Qian Ke immediately urged them to hurry up and start driving, clearly not wanting them to properly scout the road.

"You go first?" Zhou Zheng gestured.

Qian Ke immediately waved his hand, "No need, I want to follow behind you."

"Then I'll be the last one to leave." Zhou Zheng sat down on the chair next to him, adopting a "you're being shameless, so I'll be even more shameless" attitude.

Qian Ke spread his hands, his expression incredibly smug. "Then I'll definitely be behind you. You guys keep trying to delay, but I wonder if you can finish before the track closes."

Zhou Zheng frowned. This person was determined to go against them and wouldn't give up until they were done.

"Brother Zhou, this guy is being unreasonable. He's trying to interfere with us." Wang Tianle wasn't stupid. He could tell what kind of nonsense this guy was going to spout just by looking at his posture.

Nobody likes to be a tagalong. Qian Ke wanted to follow them to annoy them. As long as they messed up their route planning, mistakes were bound to happen during the race.

At best, it might delay your score by a few seconds; at worst, it could cause a car accident.

In these icy and snowy conditions, a car can be thrown several meters if it skids, and if it gets injured, it can be very painful. The rescue is much more difficult than in other races.

"Let him be, let's just do our own thing." Zhou Zheng put on his helmet and got into the car.

The red race car attracted countless eyes as it entered the arena. The car was so eye-catching that even the staff watching couldn't resist taking out their phones to take pictures.

The car started, the engine roaring loudly, and sped away under Qian Ke's sticky gaze.

"Who modified this kid's car? It feels better than mine." Qian Ke patted the race car under his hand.

The navigator put on his helmet and muttered to himself, "It's better than ours, but ours is more expensive."

"What's the use of being expensive? I already said the steering is too heavy and the brakes are too soft and unresponsive, but that engineer still hasn't changed anything. Screw him!" Qian Ke cursed under his breath.

He knew this engineer had a thing with the team manager and was probably a nepotism hire like himself. But at least the engineer was genuinely capable, while this engineer seemed like a half-baked amateur who needed someone else to guide him in modifying the race car.

Only he dares to drive this race car. Who else would dare to get in?

"Brother Qian, get ready. Aren't we going to interfere with them?" the navigator said, handing him a helmet.

As Qian Ke started the race car, he complained, "This car is garbage! It's so much worse than Zhou Zheng's car."

"Brother Qian, you're different. Even with a terrible car, you can still get good results," the navigator praised.

They had been partners for several years. The navigator was incredibly eloquent; he could make even the most mediocre person sound amazing. So, Qian Ke brought him along to Top Chain, and the two continued to develop their partnership.

Whether the old partnership is good or bad remains to be seen, depending on their performance in this competition.
