Chapter 118: Chapter 117: Takes Less Than a Second
But what if she really did know some big shots?
Running that well must have e from expert guidance, right?
Under the anticipative gazes of everyone, Chi Gui calmly dialed Lu You’s number.
Lu You had just finished a race and was resting; he answered the phone instantly, “Sister Chi, do you miss me?”
“Can you find me some racers?” Chi Gui ignored the unnecessary remarks and went straight to the point, “I need ones who can outrun the top ten racers in the nation.”
Lu You: ?
He paused before asking, “Who are the top ten racers in the country?”
People at his level mainly focused on international petitors of the same caliber, not really paying attention to the domestic ones.
Everyone was sitting close by, and Lu You’s words were almost entirely overheard by everyone.
Everyone, including Chi Mingkun, felt their last bit of hope shatter.
Chi Gui ignored everyone else, and relayed the few names Chi Mingkun had mentioned.
After hearing them, Lu You reacted just like Chi Gui had, then concluded, “Four people, right? No problem. Send me the race time and location on WeChat, and I’ll bring them over.”
Though he didn’t know who those people were, the level of domestic racers was almost the lowest in the international racing world. Finding a few who could outrun the top ten domestically was fairly easy.
Chi Gui agreed, hung up the phone, and turned to ask Chi Mingkun, “The race time and location.”
Chi Mingkun felt disheartened but obediently answered, “On Qifeng Mountain in Lin City, at ten in the morning.”
Chi Gui nodded, sent the time and location to Lu You, and then stood up to leave.
Chi Mingkun was full of worry, “Sister… Are those friends you found really capable of outrunning Zhang Ziyi’s people?”
“No problem,” Chi Gui reassured with a smile, “Don’t worry. I wouldn’t gamble with five million.”
Until Chi Gui left, Chi Mingkun and the others were still uneasy.
After a long while, the person who had spoken earlier softly said, “Should we… find someone else to help?”
“Do you have any other connections?” Chi Mingkun looked up.
That person immediately shut their mouth.
Chi Mingkun sighed, “Let’s just trust my sister and hope for a miracle tomorrow!”
Everyone, including himself, felt this was far-fetched.
Chi Gui wasn’t worried at all. When she got home, took a bath, and just then, Su Niannian sent her a WeChat message.
It was about the topic for a provincial petition’s defense.
Struggling through the all-English document and using Google and Baidu to barely understand it, Su Niannian summarized the core points and, still uncertain, sent it to Chi Gui for verification.
Chi Gui glanced over it and replied to Su Niannian, “It’s fine.”
Su Niannian instantly replied, “That was only a second! Sister Chi, can you check again to see if there’s anything I missed?”
Chi Gui: “Do I need to spend more than a second on these few lines?”
Su Niannian, who took a minute just to understand it, felt slighted.
Chi Gui offered a few more suggestions to Su Niannian and was just wrapping up when someone called.
Chi Gui checked the caller ID and answered.
Immediately, a voice as woeful as a young wife’s came through, “Boss… if I don’t call you proactively, do you not think of me at all?”
Chi Gui: “… Shen Yun, talk straight.”
“Ah…” Shen Yun sighed heavily, “When will I ever feel your warm attitude like a spring breeze?”
Chi Gui: “Are you sure you want to feel it?”
Shen Yun: “No, just kidding…”
Chi Gui was only ever warmly forting to those lying sick in bed, the more serious the illness, the warmer she was…
After joking for a bit, Shen Yun got to the business, “Boss, the pany’s annual project bidding is starting… This year the Chi Family has also submitted an application…”
