"You like cars?"
Zhou Xing raised an eyebrow and asked with some surprise.
He had seen many guys who liked sports cars, but a girl who simply enjoyed driving them was quite rare.
"Mm."
Su Xi nodded, her eyes fixed on the mclaren as if she were admiring a work of art.
"I've always loved sports cars and motorcycles... Pushing a car's performance to its limit on the track, feeling the rush of speed and the surge of adrenaline—that feeling is beyond words."
Su Xi shrugged and said with some regret, "It's just a pity my family doesn't agree with me buying these cars. They say it's too dangerous and that if they ever find out I bought one, they'll break my legs."
"So usually I can only look, but every time I see one, it still makes my heart race."
Zhou Xing wasn't surprised by this.
Indeed, as a girl who liked motorcycles, sports cars... and even going to the track.
Faced with parents of the older generation, they basically wouldn't agree.
"Alright, then this car is in your hands."
Zhou Xing handed the keys to Su Xi.
"Thank you, President Zhou."
Su Xi held the keys in her hand, her expression carrying a hint of joy.
She pressed the unlock button.
The car lights instantly lit up.
Su Xi's eyes were also exceptionally bright.
"But you're wearing high heels... driving like that might not be quite appropriate."
Seeing Su Xi about to open the door and get in, Zhou Xing immediately stopped her, pointing at the silver high heels on her feet.
As a new driver himself,
He had a strong sense of professional ethics.
Countless roads, safety first.
It wasn't that he was worried about the car having problems or getting scratched; compared to the car... his life was more important.
In this life, with such a background, if he died before he even started enjoying it,
That would be a huge disappointment to the Heavens.
"Sorry."
Su Xi glanced at her high heels and immediately realized, "I got a bit too excited seeing the car and forgot for a moment. President Zhou, please wait for me a bit."
After saying that, she walked toward a pink Panamera parked not far away.
She took the keys out of her bag and opened the trunk.
She took out a pair of small white flat shoes, changed into them, and then returned.
She smiled at Zhou Xing and said, "When I was parking, I suddenly saw this mclaren parked nearby. I was curious whose car it was then, but I never expected it to be yours."
Zhou Xing also smiled and didn't say much. He opened the passenger door, sat inside, and buckled his seatbelt.
Su Xi sat in the driver's seat and started the car.
A roar sounded.
The engine note of the mclaren p1 was deafening.
Listening to the sound, Su Xi seemed somewhat intoxicated. "This is the feeling. Sit tight, President Zhou... we're heading out!"
Hearing this, for some reason, an ominous feeling suddenly rose in Zhou Xing's heart.
Sure enough, after the car drove out of the underground garage,
The corners of Su Xi's moist lips curled up slightly.
She glanced at the rearview mirror and stepped on the gas; powerful force instantly erupted.
The car was like a runaway horse, bolting wildly down the road.
Zhou Xing's body was instantly thrown forward, and a strong sense of being pushed back into his seat surged through him.
"Wuhu..."
Su Xi was jubilant. She stepped on the gas again, and the speedometer kept rising... Ten minutes later.
The car stopped in front of a Western restaurant.
Su Xi returned the keys to Zhou Xing with a lingering sense of excitement. "As expected of one of the three great god cars. The power is incredible, and the handling is very strong. It's just a pity this is on a public road; I couldn't truly bring out its performance."
After Zhou Xing took the keys, he didn't say a word.
He only felt his stomach churning. He took a deep look at Su Xi and finally understood why her family threatened to break her legs if she dared buy a motorcycle or a sports car.
If he had a daughter like this who dared buy a sports car, he would also choose to break her legs.
Once Su Xi got in the car, it felt like she became a completely different person.
A gentle and elegant girl underwent an earth-shattering transformation the moment she touched the steering wheel.
With the mclaren in her hands, she managed to make a public road feel like a race track.
If she actually got onto a real track, the car would probably take flight.
It wasn't until they entered the restaurant.
After being seated, Su Xi dropped the persona she had when they first met and was still talking about cars. "Seriously, President Zhou, if you have nothing to do this afternoon, how about I take you for a few laps on the track?"
"I know a place where the track is pretty good, and there aren't many people."
"I often hide it from my parents and go there to borrow my friends' cars to get my fix."
Zhou Xing, on the other hand, appeared somewhat taciturn. He took a sip of water to settle himself before saying, "We can talk about that later. Let's discuss business first."
"Oh right, the feeling of driving the P1 was so good I almost forgot I was here for an interview."
Su Xi patted her head as she snapped back to reality.
"With your qualifications, they seem quite good. What made you think of coming to my company?"
Zhou Xing asked.
"Because I was very unhappy at SoftBank China."
Su Xi said directly, "I told you just now, my family keeps a very tight leash on me. They basically don't give me any opportunities; everything is arranged for me. Even at SoftBank, it felt like being at home."
"The people at the company were very nice to me, and I learned a lot, but I never had the chance to get hands-on experience. I studied abroad for so many years, but in the end, I had no place to use my skills."
"Staying in that kind of environment was too oppressive, no different from being at home. They still treat me like a child. So I wanted to change places. On one hand, it's to have the chance to get hands-on experience personally, and on the other hand, it's to prove to my parents that with my own abilities, I can be completely independent."
Su Xi smiled. "Of course, if I can achieve some results, that would be even better."
Zhou Xing nodded slightly.
This was reasonable. After all, many children from wealthy families were like flowers in a greenhouse.
Children from ordinary families envied their family background.
While they, in turn, envied the freedom of ordinary children.
He wouldn't negate her personal ability just because of the way Su Xi acted while driving.
Liking to speed was one thing.
As long as no problems occurred during work... that would be enough.
"What position do you want?"
Zhou Xing asked.
"The position doesn't matter, as long as it meets the requirements I just mentioned—allowing me to take charge of matters and have the initiative in investments."
Su Xi replied.
"That won't be a problem."
Zhou Xing nodded and said, "The General Manager position is already filled, so I can only appoint you as a Department Manager. You'll have the final say in your department's affairs, specifically responsible for the department's investment projects and audits."
"Of course... the premise of all this is that every project must be approved and signed by me before you can be responsible for the investment funding."
Zhou Xing looked at Su Xi. "I wonder if you agree?"
"Which department would I be in charge of?"
"The Film and Television Department, focusing on film industry investments."
Su Xi thought for a moment and then nodded. "Of course. You're the company owner; whether to invest in a project is your call. As long as I have the authority to manage it, that's enough."
"Then... welcome to Nile Crocodile Company."
Zhou Xing smiled slightly.
"I'm looking forward to it too."
After Su Xi finished speaking, she looked at Zhou Xing with some anticipation. "Boss, are you free this afternoon?"
"What for?"
"If you have time, how about taking this car of yours for a few laps on the track?"
Hearing this, Zhou Xing's hand, which was currently cutting his steak, trembled slightly.
