Chapter 167 Treating Me Like a Child (Pei Yan)

Pei Yan sent me a message this morning saying that he had called his two former teammates over.

The fact that the signed contract wasn't being accounted for through the company's books essentially added extra work to the finance department. Xiaoyuan couldn't make up her mind, so she had to call on the real boss for help.

It's hard to explain over the phone in a short time.

Shen Zhaoyi had no choice but to have Xiaoyuan call everyone over first, and she would arrive shortly after.

The team manager's office.

When she pushed open the door, Pei Yan was sitting at his desk. When he saw her come in, his expression relaxed.

"coming?"

Shen Zhaoyi nodded, her gaze sweeping over the two unfamiliar faces sitting on the sofa—

They were all in their early twenties.

A buzz cut, wheat-colored skin;
The other one wore black-rimmed glasses and looked more refined.

Seeing her looking them over, the two of them smiled at each other. The one with the buzz cut even waved and greeted her, "Hello, boss!"

It seems Pei Yan has already told them about the convoy's situation.

Xiao Yuan quickly stood up, her face full of apology, "Sister Shen, I'm so sorry to have troubled you to make this trip..."

She was very uneasy, but fortunately Shen Zhaoyi didn't take it to heart.

I'm just killing time anyway.

This trip also allows me to see who Pei Yan used to work with, and who would go to great lengths to bring them back, even if it meant paying out of his own pocket.

While Shen Zhaoyi was looking at the contract terms in her hand, the two men were also secretly observing her.

This was the first time they had ever seen such a young and beautiful female boss come to invest in this industry.

Pei Yan was a little anxious, afraid that Shen Zhaoyi would change her mind.

The contract terms are not complicated; you can read them in less than two minutes.

After turning the last page, Shen Zhaoyi slammed the folder shut.

"Overall, as the boss, I have no objections."

Pei Yan's shoulders relaxed almost imperceptibly.

But the next second, she continued, "But as a friend, I think some things still need to be changed."

With her fingertips touching the contract, Shen Zhaoyi looked up at the somewhat dumbfounded man.

The office fell silent.

Pei Yan asked directly, "...Where do we need to change?"

Clearly, the identity is automatically assigned to the latter.

The buzz-cut youth and the bespectacled man exchanged a glance, both seeing the confusion in each other's eyes.

Shen Zhaoyi smiled and pushed the contract back.

"I don't care if your salary is paid from your bonus."

“But for their training resources, they should just use the team’s own.” She paused, her tone playful, “They should save their meager savings so they won’t be short of money to find a wife in the future.”

"Pfft!" The buzz-cut youth couldn't hold back his laughter, but was pulled back by the bespectacled man.

Pei Yan was quite touched at first.

Before he could even express his opinion, he heard Shen Zhaoyi say "find a wife," and suddenly felt a little aggrieved.
He opened his mouth and uttered a nonsensical sentence: "...Take care of yourself first."

His voice grew softer and softer, the last few words almost stuck in his throat.

Shen Zhaoyi didn't hear it clearly.

"Ok?"

"nothing!"

Pei Yan walked over and clicked on the computer, "I'll change it as you said."

The new contract was quickly drafted and printed.

Shen Zhaoyi watched them sign and stamp the documents, and also took the opportunity to memorize the names of the two new members of the team.

The guy with the buzz cut is Chen Hong, and the bespectacled, refined-looking man is Zhou Yiling.

Pei Yan carefully put away the copy of the contract, gave a few instructions, and then prepared to take his men to the training ground.

Shen Zhaoyi didn't go with them; she had something else to discuss with Xiaoyuan.

The new racing suits and car logos have been approved and are almost done, but now two more people have been temporarily added...

This might be okay in other racing teams.

But Shen Zhaoyi was still somewhat worried about them. After all, from the boss to the manager, they were all complete novices.

Knowing her concerns, Xiaoyuan patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, Sister Shen!"

"I've already gone through the process with Captain Pei, and I'll definitely get everything arranged for them within a week!"

"It definitely won't interfere with the game!"

Shen Zhaoyi looked at the faint dark circles under her eyes.

"Don't be brave."

"Yes, yes, I know what I'm doing!" Xiaoyuan pointed to her phone. "I definitely won't try to tough it out when I need help."

Trust the people you employ.

Thinking about the real reason she was here, Shen Zhaoyi still chose to believe in her abilities.

"Okay, I'll give you the prize money when I get back after the competition."

After saying that, he stopped disturbing Xiaoyuan's work.

But instead of leaving immediately, he started walking towards the training field.

The two race cars that were bought temporarily were already parked on the field. Since Pei Yan paid for them, Shen Zhaoyi would receive a cashback, so she did not object.

At this moment, Chen Hong and Zhou Yiling are sitting in the cockpit adjusting the equipment.

The other person, who should have been with them, was now sitting alone on the observation platform.

After all, they haven't gotten to know each other for so long, so he needs to observe from an outsider's perspective to see the current gap between his two teammates and then make appropriate adjustments.

After they got onto the track one after another, Shen Zhaoyi walked to Pei Yan's side.

Although she was an outsider, she could still see that there were differences between the two when they were in charge of the track and when Pei Yan was in charge.

Circle after circle.

Amidst the roar, Shen Zhaoyi heard the person beside her say, "Thank you."

She didn't turn her head; her gaze remained fixed on the track.

This continued until the three-lap test was completed.

Are you confident about leading them in this competition?

Pei Yan stood up. "There are still two weeks left. With some time to adjust, there won't be any problems."

He didn't use words like "should" or "probably," so Shen Zhaoyi knew he was truly confident.

He continued to give instructions—

"I'm leaving S City tomorrow, and I'm not sure when I'll be back. If you need anything, just let Xiaoyuan know."

"where to?"

"I'd say it's a kind of vacation."

She had thought of this plan not long after she was connected to the system, and now that she has some free time, she's finally able to do it.

Unexpectedly, Pei Yan asked, "Just you?"

"if not?"

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shen Zhaoyi turned around curiously to look at him.

Stray cats often throw tantrums for no apparent reason, but it's okay, just open a can of food and give them a treat.

"Focus on preparing for the competition, I'll bring you a gift when I get back."

Pei Yan rolled her eyes. "Are you trying to coax a child?"

Shen Zhaoyi suddenly reached out and ruffled his hair.

"That's what it means to coax a child."

The person, who would normally be furious at having their head stepped on by a parrot, actually held back for now, saying irritably, "My hairstyle is going to be messed up..."

This scene caused Chen Hong and Zhou Yiling, who should have been reviewing their actions, to stop talking.

If I remember correctly, when Qiu Yu was in the racing team, he did this because he was older than Pei Yan.

But the result was that the next day someone drew a turtle on that pretty face.

But now, the beautiful boss has escaped unscathed.

In contrast, their good brother kept staring at the back of the person who had already walked away.

Something's up here?

They see through it but don't say it out loud. Right now, their priority is the competition at the end of the month. As for romance, they can talk about it slowly when they have time.
