Chapter 466 - 176: Nanaz, Do You Want to Sit or Lie Down?
"Yeah, it’s soft and you can even lie down on it. Nanaz, do you want to sit or lie down?"
Su Zelin raised an eyebrow at her.
"Class monitor, do you want me to sit or lie down?"
Nanaz giggled, covering her mouth, her laughter trembling like a flower.
"Either is fine. It’s so soft and well-cushioned that whether you sit or lie down, it’ll be comfortable."
Su Zelin chuckled.
This girl is getting more and more flirty; it seems I need to give her a shot to calm her down!
"This is a public place, the classroom. Please be mindful of your image, both of you!"
Luo Xi coughed twice, reminding the ’car king and queen’ not to go overboard.
Just then, the class bell rang, and the two stopped their chatter.
Taking Nanaz out for a drive is fine, but not today.
He had other things to do in the afternoon.
Song Yuwei was coming over.
She had officially completed her resignation from the auto trade city yesterday.
In her previous life, the little secretary left Shenghai without any nostalgia; after all, she wasn’t from Shenghai, just there to make a living.
Lin’an isn’t as bustling as Shenghai, but it’s still a Metropolis. The climate and eating habits in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai are pretty similar, so adapting shouldn’t be hard.
The main thing is, after coming to Lin’an, she wouldn’t just be a little worker in the auto trade city but a supervising manager.
Su Zelin had already discussed with Yang Fen about appointing Song Yuwei to this position.
At the time, Brother Xiao Yang was a bit surprised.
When picking up the car, his interaction with Song Yuwei was different but still memorable. He remembered the girl as quite young, seemingly in her early twenties, young and beautiful, yet slightly naive.
However, Brother Xiao Yang knew that Su Zelin wasn’t the type to be driven crazy by the sight of a pretty woman.
With his conditions, there were no shortages of beauties around him. How could he just casually arrange for a beauty he met while picking up a car to assume such an important position?
There’s only one possibility: he recognized her capability and believed Song Yuwei had the ability to take on the role.
Brother Xiao Yang trusted Su Zelin’s judgment. After all, Kang Baohong was just a small IT staff before, but now he’s thriving as the general manager at New Era, being intelligent, quick to learn, full of energy, and becoming increasingly smooth.
So when Su Zelin picked a rookie salesperson, Brother Xiao Yang wasn’t very surprised, nor would he oppose it.
After all, Su Zelin was the big boss with the controlling say, whereas he was just a small shareholder.
Besides, in the three newly opened branches, the marketing managers at the University and Electronic Technology were actively promoted by Su Zelin from his old subordinates.
It’s only fair to reciprocate the favor, so he couldn’t deny Su Zelin this face.
After the afternoon classes ended, Su Zelin returned to the dormitory, unusually not going for a game or a run.
He asked Song Yuwei to take the afternoon train over, expected to arrive in Lin’an around the evening.
He showed enough sincerity, planning to personally drive to pick her up, and had already rented a house for her.
After all, she was talent poached from another place and his bedside companion from a previous life, so her treatment had to be somewhat special.
While casually having some tea in the electronics store, his phone rang.
It was a call from Song Yuwei, informing him that she would reach Lin’an shortly.
After hanging up, Su Zelin drove the Santana parked not far from the store to head out.
...
At the train station, Song Yuwei, dragging a suitcase, looked around at the station entrance.
It was her first time in Lin’an, stepping into this unfamiliar city. Surprisingly, there wasn’t a hint of unease in her heart; instead, her face was filled with excitement and anticipation.
This is an opportunity that could rewrite my life, and I must seize it well!
The new boss is ambitious and promising; following him will surely lead to a bright future!
To those who gloat and look down on the Song family, you just wait and see!
Song MM’s beautiful eyes shone with light.
She wasn’t naturally a pragmatic girl; she once had a time of innocence.
When she was a child, her father was in business and made quite a bit of money, so the family was well-off. However, later her father’s business failed, and the family fell into decline. Those relatives, friends, and neighbors who used to be on good terms not only didn’t sympathize with them but carried a mentality of schadenfreude, taking pleasure in their misfortune. Some of them were even people the Song family had helped. After witnessing these people’s ugly faces, Song Yuwei became pragmatic.
Her father was discouraged, and her mother was an honest, traditional woman. She swore to make a name for herself and change her family’s circumstances with her own strength, to live a good life again, and to slap those gloating relatives and friends in the face.
In a previous life, she achieved it. After being with Su Zelin for a few years, she drove a small car back home and bought back the house her father had to sell to pay off debts when his business failed. At that time, seeing those envious, jealous, and hateful looks from the snobbish neighbors, she felt immensely gratified.
In this life, Su Zelin didn’t make her wait three years in the auto trade city; the experience of a loafer’s rebirth quietly changed or accelerated many things.
"Whoosh!"
A black sedan stopped in front of her, the very Santana that was sold not long ago.
Su Zelin pushed open the car door and quickly walked to her.
"Boss!"
Upon seeing the loafer, Song Yuwei beamed with a smile.
Her address had changed, dropping the surname.
Su Zelin nodded slightly, took her luggage from her hand, stuffed it in the rear trunk of the Santana, and then opened the passenger door, laughing, "We can’t stay here for long. Let’s chat more after we get in the car!"
There was a little detail here that Song Yuwei keenly noticed.
The boss was letting her sit in the front seat, not the back; this suggested a closer attitude, not merely treating her as an employee.
She could sense that Su Zelin treated her somewhat differently, possibly even having some intentions like that.
Yet, Song MM was secretly delighted.
"Thank you!"
She didn’t stand on ceremony, sat in the front seat, and fastened her seatbelt.
The Santana started again, and Song Yuwei looked out at the scenery with interest.
While driving, Su Zelin casually asked, "Yuwei, how do you feel about coming to Lin’an?"
"It’s great. Lin’an is an ancient city of culture, famous for the saying ’In heaven there is paradise, on earth Suzhou and Hangzhou.’ I’ve wanted to visit for a long time, especially West Lake!"
Song Yuwei withdrew her gaze from outside the window and turned back to Su Zelin.
The young boss’s profile was unbeatable; she’d never seen such a handsome man before. The way he drove the Santana with one hand was both manly and carefree, exuding the unique vibrancy of youth without a trace of immaturity, blending perfectly with the aura of maturity and stability, creating a quite unique charm.
Song MM had to admit that it wasn’t just the job benefits promised by Su Zelin that attracted her to Lin’an, but also the man himself.
When she first met the loafer at the auto trade store, she was already quite interested in him.
Initially, it was just because he was good-looking.
But later, she realized it wasn’t just the looks.
His speech and behavior, as well as his insights, were completely unlike those of an eighteen-year-old youngster.
His proficient car inspection and driving skills, treating a sedan as casually as a toy with AA batteries.
Song Yuwei discovered that this young man stood out in all the ways, and subconsciously, she was drawn to him, wanting to know more about the loafer.
There seemed to be an invisible magnetic field between her and Su Zelin, where they were inexplicably attracted to each other upon meeting amidst the vast sea of people, blending effortlessly. Perhaps this was what people called fate.
"Hehe, West Lake, huh? You’ll get to see it soon. We’re going there for dinner later!"
At a red-light intersection, Su Zelin shifted back to neutral, pulled the handbrake, and replied.
"Really? That’s great!"
Song MM was very excited.
She thought it might take some time, until her work and life were settled, to have the opportunity to see West Lake. But she never expected to see it as soon as she arrived.
Chatting casually with Su Zelin, although he was her new boss and it was only their second meeting, there wasn’t the slightest nervousness in Song Yuwei. It felt entirely different from how she felt facing superiors at the Volkswagen auto trade store.
Perhaps it was that the young boss was her peer, he was easy-going and unpretentious, making interactions feel very comfortable.
Song Yuwei mused silently.
