923: Chapter 913: Even the President Can’t Do It!
A Woman’s Intuition!
The battle was imminent!
Fang Qingya clearly had no confidence in Tang Xiao’s skills.
Whether it was the internal testing at Tianyuan or just the track test run.
Fang Qingya realized early on that Tang Xiao was not a professional race car driver.
Her awareness, reactions, and control were all good, but she lacked courage and was overly cautious.
The result…
was poor performance on the curves.
Slowing down, entering the bend, exiting the bend, accelerating.
What seemed like a simple process actually tested the grasp of timing and choice of racing line.
In professional races, a lot of the time gains or loses were made on the bends.
If someone took the curves faster and in less time, they naturally found it easier to overtake and create a gap.
After all, in the straight sections of the race, the performance of the vehicles wasn’t much different, so the distance between them wouldn’t be too significant.
Falling behind on the curves and getting stuck in position could easily lead to a loss of speed and distance.
“Tian?
Are you talking about that last-minute replacement, Qin Yutian?”
Tang Xiao, out of breath, took a seat, removed her helmet, undid her braid, and took several deep breaths.
“Exactly!”
Fang Qingya used the handle to bring her electric wheelchair closer, approaching slowly.
“Racing isn’t just about skill; it’s also about physical strength and stamina.
In intense competition, the speeds are high, and the races fierce, you must maintain extremely high levels of concentration at all times without any letup.”
“Otherwise, at best you’re overtaken and fall behind, and at worst, it’s a car wreck and loss of life, so…”
Fang Qingya opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Tang Xiao:
“So, Xiao, just give up.
There’s no need to try to prove anything.
Everyone has a specialty, and auto racing isn’t special forces combat.
The difference between amateur and professional is just too huge!”
“I…”
Tang Xiao was about to retort, but she swallowed her words.
Taking the water bottle, she chugged it down, truly thirsty.
Fang Qingya said with a smile, “Don’t blame me for being too blunt.
Professional racing is just not that simple.
If someone could train for a couple of days and drive extremely well, then what would be the need for professional race car drivers?
Why would they bother with intensive training?”
Tang Xiao set down the bottle and, while wiping sweat with a tissue, asked,
“That Qin Yutian…
can he be relied on?
The race is tomorrow, and he’s only arriving in the evening.
He doesn’t even take the time for a test run to familiarize himself with the car and the track conditions!”
“Don’t you worry about that!”
Fang Qingya pointed outside and said with a smile:
“He made his name here by winning a championship in his first battle.
Over the years, he’s run on this track more than once; no one is more familiar with the conditions than him, and as for driving skills, there’s no issue.
The double champion of touring car circuit races and road races, he’s definitely not all talk.”
“As for our Tianlong Sports Car, he ordered one before they even hit the market.
He’s very familiar with the condition of our cars; he’s really taken to them and offered a lot of valuable suggestions, which have been very helpful with our model updates!”
“If it weren’t for some issues that suddenly arose at his club, he wouldn’t have agreed to help us in the race.
But with his ability, even if he doesn’t win the championship, at least a top-five finish is certain!”
In her words, Fang Qingya was filled with trust in Qin Yutian.
Tang Xiao nodded slightly, then suddenly asked:
“Do you know what’s going on with his club?”
“It seems to be a financial issue.
They’re short on money.
I offered him a guaranteed appearance fee of one million, plus an extra bonus for finishing in the top three.
Naturally, he’s willing to race for us.”
Fang Qingya said with certainty.
Tang Xiao was exhausted enough; she didn’t want to ask any more.
“It’s almost five o’clock; I need to hurry and take a shower, then head to the high-speed rail station!”
“Is it Jie who’s almost here?
Look at you in such a hurry!”
Fang Qingya teased, slowly maneuvered her wheelchair, and went out the door to turn into the next room to check on the cars.
The team’s engineers were conducting a comprehensive inspection and maintenance of the car Tang Xiao had test-driven.
“I just looked at the weather forecast for tomorrow; it’s cloudy with a chance of light rain, so we must prepare rain tires!”
“Our team has just formed; we definitely can’t change tires as fast as those professional teams, and I don’t expect everyone to be fast either!”
“But we must be steady; we absolutely cannot afford any errors in haste.
Even one less tightened nut is playing with the driver’s life!”
“Also, since we’re an electric race car team unlike those who add gasoline and motor oil, we must also pay attention to fire safety at night!”
…
In this young team, Fang Qingya had experience as a professional race car driver abroad and naturally had to take on the roles of team leader, technical director, as well as being responsible for safety and logistics.
As a new team, Fang Qingya’s requirements weren’t high; simply being able to finish the race normally and, as much as possible, to show off the unique capabilities of the electric race cars was enough.
She didn’t demand any high placements.
After all, the newly formed team lacked personnel and hadn’t gone through a long period of professional training.
Just to show up, avoid trouble, and get familiar with everyone else was fine.
…
In the evening.
Fang Qingya didn’t wait for Qin Yutian; Wu Jie arrived first.
The case involving the Kong Family in Liuli City had finally been cracked, and after obtaining Elder Tan’s agreement, Wu Jie no longer needed to be accompanied by two special agents from the Security Bureau at all times.
It was a rare opportunity to let loose unrestricted, which was a shame because as soon as they met, Tang Xiao said she couldn’t compete.
On the way, Tang Xiao and Wu Jie had a detailed chat.
Since a professional race car driver was going to take her place, Wu Jie was more than happy.
Talking about the race and car tuning, they didn’t realize it had gotten dark.
Unable to reach Fang Qingya by phone and not getting a reply to messages, it wasn’t until almost eight in the evening that she finally got a callback from Qin Yutian.
He said his flight was delayed and that he had just checked into his hotel; he wouldn’t come to see the car tonight.
Fang Qingya immediately contacted the hotel after hanging up the phone.
“…Okay, that’s settled then.
The expenses for the room should still be on me!”
After hanging up, Fang Qingya’s expression was somewhat upset.
“What happened?
Did he drink?”
Tang Xiao asked curiously.
Fang Qingya shook her head slightly: “No, he didn’t drink, but he didn’t come alone; he brought a woman!”
“It’s normal to bring a wife or girlfriend to a race.
What’s so strange about that?”
“Not one; three.”
“Oh, crap!”
Tang Xiao couldn’t help but curse out loud.
Wu Jie laughed on the side.
“Come on, it’s no big deal.
As long as he can finish the race normally tomorrow, who cares how much fun he has tonight?”
“I’m just worried that tomorrow he’ll be sluggish, his hands and legs soft, unable to turn the steering wheel or press the gas and brake pedals!”
Fang Qingya complained uncontrollably.
At night.
Just before the racetrack was about to close for the night, all team personnel left the venue.
After a simple meal at the hotel, Wu Jie intended to take Tang Xiao back to the room to rest.
But then…
Unexpectedly, Wu Jie showed up and the rooms were tight; both Tang Xiao and Fang Qingya could only stay in a double room.
So tonight, Wu Jie either had to squeeze in with one of the guys in the team, or pretend Fang Qingya didn’t exist and share the single bed with Tang Xiao.
After arriving in the room.
Fang Qingya was straightforward and immediately occupied the bathroom.
Her right leg was injured, but once she left the wheelchair and used crutches, she could manage daily activities without a problem.
However, the room wasn’t large, and aside from the two single beds, there was hardly any space left; even sleeping on the floor wasn’t an option.
Tang Xiao wasn’t embarrassed and sat on the bed with her laptop, starting to study the materials.
Wu Jie heard the sound of water in the bathroom and nudged Tang Xiao.
“Is the hotel really out of rooms?”
Tang Xiao looked up, a smile playing on her lips.
“What are you thinking?
During the race, all the nearby hotels are fully booked.
If you want to stay comfortably, you’ll have to stay far away!”
“We’re not participating in the race, so it’s not impossible to stay further away!” Wu Jie leaned in closer, catching Tang Xiao’s hand.
“Busy with the Kong Family case, we haven’t…”
“Go away, I’m busy!
I didn’t drive well in today’s trial run, I’m not in the mood!”
Tang Xiao didn’t wait for Wu Jie to finish speaking and pulled her hand away to continue studying the materials.
Wu Jie hesitated whether to play a bad trick when the sound of the water in the bathroom suddenly stopped.
In a short while.
Fang Qingya came out wrapped in a bath towel, propping herself on her crutch.
Wu Jie subconsciously averted his gaze and simply took out his phone, ready to play games.
“Hey, what are you two spacing out for?
Hurry up and take a shower!”
“It doesn’t matter to me whether you go one by one or together!”
Fang Qingya gave Wu Jie a mischievous smile, then uncovered the blanket and lay on her single bed.
“You go first!
I have more to look at!”
Tang Xiao commanded, her gaze fixed on the screen, not up for debate.
Wu Jie sighed quietly and went to the bathroom.
As he opened the door, in addition to a gust of hot air, he also smelled a refreshing fragrance.
But the worst was that Fang Qingya hadn’t taken her clothes with her.
“Damn it!”
Wu Jie cursed internally and pretended not to see.
He turned on the hot water and quickly showered.
Having arrived in a rush, he didn’t bring any change of clothes and had to put on the old ones again.
Returning to the room.
Fang Qingya was lying on her side playing with her phone, her back towards Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao was still absorbed in reading the report.
To others, the high and mighty president shone brightly.
But in reality?
Every day there were all sorts of things to worry about and handle.
A slight delay in the day meant working overtime at night.
It seemed it was just reviewing documents, but she had to be careful, meticulous, and thorough.
Because one wrong decision could lead to massive economic losses.
So Wu Jie didn’t disturb Tang Xiao, quietly sitting on the other side of the bed.
“The demolition work in Technology City is already completed ahead of schedule, which is much faster than I had anticipated!”
“Do you think I should give Chu Yunxuan and her team a bonus as a reward?”
Tang Xiao suddenly asked out of the blue.
Wu Jie was startled and glanced at her.
Life is unpredictable and at the whim of fate!
Since Tang Xiao and Chu Yunxuan slept together after a night of drinking, their relationship had progressed by leaps and bounds!
Land acquisition and demolition work, whether ahead or on schedule, were part of Chu Yunxuan’s job, right?
And she’s supposed to get a bonus for that?
So if Tianyuan Green Energy Auto significantly increases the speed of car delivery, should Fang Qingya also get a bonus?
As expected!
Before Wu Jie could respond, Fang Qingya suddenly rolled halfway over and, with a playful smirk, asked:
“Xiao, you can’t be biased!
Chu Yunxuan managing the demolition well, what skill is that?
I doubled the company’s car production in half a month, why don’t you reward me?”
Tang Xiao laughed.
“You’re a shareholder expecting dividends, why give you a bonus?
Daydreaming in the middle of the night?”
“Hmph!
Stingy!”
Fang Qingya retorted, turned over, and continued playing with her phone.
Not long after.
Tang Xiao finished with her work and got up to take a shower.
As soon as the bathroom door closed, Wu Jie received a message from Fang Qingya.
“The relationship between Xiao and Chu Yunxuan is not ordinary!
They talked on the phone for at least half an hour today…”
After scanning the message, Wu Jie turned to look at Fang Qingya in astonishment.
Fang Qingya pointed towards Tang Xiao’s phone on the nightstand.
“If you don’t believe it, go ahead and check.”
Wu Jie shook his head: “It’s definitely work-related!”
Fang Qingya huffed with a cold laugh: “A woman’s intuition is very accurate!
I think it’s novelty that’s influencing her.
She finds being with Chu Yunxuan fresh and different while with you it’s old hat, lacking the excitement and surprise!”
“Don’t rush to argue; I’m not saying you two are about to split up, but you’ve passed the honeymoon phase.
In the long days ahead, if there are no children to bond you, the relationship will inevitably become more and more mundane, even dull!”
A slight twitch appeared at the corner of Wu Jie’s mouth as he heaved a sigh.
Damn it!
Thinking about it, Fang Qingya had a point.
In recent days, it wasn’t just that they were too busy with work, but even when alone together, they talked more about work than life.
They seemed more like business partners than husband and wife.
In the long run, there really could be a marital crisis.
Fang Qingya smiled mysteriously: “Don’t worry, I’ll help you tonight!”
