Night Rose

Su Jin found a job and happily went to share the news with Ling Keke, only to discover that Ling Keke had gone out partying and hadn't returned yet.

By the time Ling Keke returned from her escapades, it was already very late.

She tiptoed towards the second bedroom, only to be caught red-handed by Su Jin. "Ling Keke, where have you been? Chasing someone until the early hours of the morning?"

"He's very busy, you know, barbecue restaurants are very busy in the early morning." Ling Keke tried to remain calm, tugging at her collar to cover the suggestive marks on her neck. "Am I disturbing your sleep?"

"No, I just got a job and I'm so excited I can't sleep." Su Jin poured herself a glass of water and asked, "Would you like some?"

"No need!" Ling Keke knew that she had found a new job and was happy for her, but there was a hint of unease in her expression, as if she had done something wrong.

"You..." Su Jin asked, somewhat suspiciously.

Before she could even ask the question, Ling Keke guiltily moved towards the bathroom. "Ah, it's too late, I'll take a shower first, you should go to sleep early!"

Su Jin didn't ask any more questions, but when she woke up, Ling Keke was nowhere to be found! Such a grown person had simply vanished from her house.

I called several times, but no one answered.

She received a text message from an unknown number.

"Su Su, I'm in urgent need of help! Please don't tell anyone where I am, please!"

Su Jin stared at the text message, falling into an eerie silence. What had Ling Keke done wrong? Why had she run away overnight?

Soon, she found out what Ling Keke had done wrong.

Zhao Xin came knocking on our door.

Zhao Xin, his face contorted with rage, opened the door and demanded, "Where did Ling Keke go?!"

Su Jin wondered to herself, what on earth did this young lady do? How did she manage to provoke Boss Zhao, who has such a good temper?

"She must have gone home."

"Where does she live?" Zhao Xin asked, his face pale.

"Boss Zhao, what do you want with her?" Su Jin asked again, just to be on the safe side.

"Didn't she tell you? She slept with me yesterday!" Zhao Xin pulled off his turtleneck sweater, revealing a red hickey on his neck, which looked quite fresh.

That sounds scary, but the marks on his neck are even scarier.

Su Jin was stunned. Thinking back to how Ling Keke sneaked into the bathroom after returning last night and then slipped away this morning, it seemed that she had been feeling guilty and had forced herself on him.

But looking at Zhao Xin's expression, if he was really that unwilling, how could such a tall and strong man be so easily pushed down? Moreover, judging from his expression, he seemed more like a resentful husband who had been abandoned than someone who wanted revenge.

For her sister's happiness, Su Jin righteously handed over the address and instructed Zhao Xin, "Boss Zhao, she must have gone home. Keep watch around her house, and you'll eventually catch her."

"Thanks." Zhao Xin took the address and left, then turned back to look at her one last time. "You won't lie to me, or tell on me, will you?"

"Absolutely not, I will only offer my sincere blessings." Su Jin smiled at him.

Zhao Xin was silent for a moment, then clenched his fist and whispered, "Ling Keke, don't let me catch you."

A few days later.

Su Jin was lying in Zhou Zheng's arms, playing games with him, when she received a message from Ling Keke.

Ling: Su Su, you traitor! You…

Before I could finish typing the rest of my message, my phone was probably snatched away, causing the message to be sent before I could finish speaking.

Su Jin couldn't help but feel sorry for her; a 30-year-old chaste man must be quite terrifying. But since she had already provoked him, she could only bear it. After all, she would be sitting at the head table when they got married.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Zheng controlled the character for her and jumped onto the platform.

Su Jin took the handle and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I'm just happy to have found a job."

"When are you going to work?" Zhou Zheng asked her casually.

"I went to work after you left," Su Jin said, still a little reluctant. She put down the controller and hugged Zhou Zheng. "Our meeting time will probably have to be adjusted again. You're busy with school, and I'm busy with work. How many days will we have to see each other?"

Zhou Zheng promised to come back every weekend, but he couldn't always come back on time. The new major was a bit too stressful for him, so he would ask teachers for extra lessons. He also had other things to do at school, so he sometimes didn't come back on weekends.

Zhou Zheng kissed the top of her head. "It's okay, I'll come visit you during summer vacation."

"Then I need to apply to the manager that a family member needs to accompany the team, and I will pay for the expenses. That way, the team won't have any objections," Su Jin said.

Zhou Zheng sighed, "Your convoy is still so poor? You can't even afford the expenses for one family member?"

"How could that be? Our team is very wealthy, but nobody else is bringing any, so I have to do my part," Su Jin said frankly.

"Okay, I'll wait for Engineer Su to take care of me." Zhou Zheng replied, dropping the controller and wanting to kiss her.

Su Jin deliberately backed away, but Zhou Zheng chased after her and kissed her until he pinned her down on the sofa, kissing her until she was breathless.

When the two are apart for a long time, their eyes meet and sparks fly, and it always takes a long time to end the tumultuous relationship.

Su Jin lay in his arms, contentedly wrapping her arms around his lean waist.

She thought to herself, "I hope summer vacation comes quickly; I might go crazy thinking about Zhou Zheng."

On Monday morning, Zhou Zheng left, and Su Jin flew to the new team base shortly after.

This team is indeed a new team, with all the staff newly recruited. However, they are not all strangers. The racing world is only so big. Some people may not have met, but they may have heard of them.

As soon as Su Jin's name was mentioned, it became a household name in the industry. Everyone looked at her, making her blush.

Sherry, a former top chain engineer, got into a lot of trouble in the public eye, but instead of wallowing in self-pity, she led newcomers to compete in rally racing and won the national championship, proving herself and becoming a hot topic in the racing world.

Her colleagues surrounded her, asking her many questions. The initial awkwardness between the new colleagues seemed to dissipate like a fog in the midst of their conversation and laughter.

The team has two race car drivers, each with a team serving them. In Su Jin's team, besides her and another senior engineer, there are also two intern engineers.

Su Jin was initially puzzled, thinking that the team wanted her to mentor newcomers and then kick her out. Later, she heard a gossip among her colleagues that the team had three racing driver positions, and the vacant positions were reserved for people with connections, so naturally, two engineers were reserved for them.

However, no one knows who that person with connections is. They only know that such a person does exist and will not be able to come to the fleet until July.

Such powerful connections? He doesn't even need to participate in the team's usual training and races, and he can directly get a service team. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he is the team's investor.

Su Jin worked at the team for three months with questions in mind. The work atmosphere was great. The team owner never showed up. There was only a top manager who managed the team and led them to fight in various competitions. They even made a name for themselves in small competitions.

However, Su Jin was not very satisfied with the two racers. They did not bring out the full potential of their modified race cars. Although she knew that very few people could bring out the full potential, she was particularly picky because she had seen a genius racer like Zhou Zheng.

Summer vacation was fast approaching, and with only one day left before Zhou Zheng's vacation started, she made a special call to ask him when he would be back.

Zhou Zheng hesitated and told her, "There are still a few days of classes left, let's wait a bit longer."

Su Jin counted down the days, but her dissatisfaction grew stronger.

Until that day, when she went to work, she saw her colleagues gathered together gossiping, "I heard that 'connected' guy is coming today! I wonder what his level is. He's probably just here to have fun, and will leave when he's done."

"I think so. The manager said he'd be there by 10:00 today, and it's 9:55 now. He should be downstairs by now, right?"

Su Jin glanced down at her watch, and couldn't help but wonder who this person with connections was.

"Here it comes!"

There was a commotion downstairs as colleagues rushed to the elevator entrance, waiting for the person to come up.

Su Jin curiously followed the crowd, standing far away on the edge, waiting to catch a glimpse of the people with connections.

"Ding!"

The elevator doors opened, and a man with long legs stepped out. He glanced around the crowd before walking toward a corner.

The people in front of Su Jin were too tall, blocking her view. She stood on tiptoe and immediately made eye contact with someone in the crowd who had connections.

In an instant, her heart raced, pounding so fast it felt like it was about to leap out of her chest.

The person who lied to her and said it would take a few more days stood right in front of her and gave her a huge surprise!

There are no so-called "connections" involved. The person occupying the driver's position is the actual owner of the team, Zhou Zheng.

Su Jin ran straight towards him and bumped into his arms, filled with longing.

Zhou Zheng hugged the person he had been thinking about day and night tightly.

"Su Jin, I'm here."

Engineer Su, your personal racer has arrived.
