Qi Xuan suddenly felt that in this world, there was no woman more beautiful than Ye Zhi.
"Aren't you afraid you'll fail?" he asked in a low voice.
"Anything is possible to fail. If you don't try because you're afraid of failure, how can you move forward?" Ye Zhi said calmly, "Since there's an opportunity now, I definitely have to try. Even if I fail, I can still deliver express packages, or... you could take me in?"
As she spoke, Ye Zhi looked at him, her bright eyes filled with a shallow smile.
Qi Xuan only felt his heart beat faster.
"Then I'll come work for you. After all, you know my capabilities, I can help you make money!" Ye Zhi said proudly.
Qi Xuan: ...
In the end, he had overthought things.
"Regarding the acquisition of the express delivery company, I agree to invest. We'll proceed according to your plan," Qi Xuan said faintly.
Ye Zhi was delighted, "Since you're investing, why not invest a bit more?"
Qi Xuan: ...
Why did he feel like he was just her ATM?
"It's like this," Ye Zhi quickly explained. "I delivered express packages for a morning, and I found that for a novice like me, most of the time was spent finding directions and recognizing routes. Moreover, even experienced couriers have to spend a lot of effort planning their routes. So I was thinking, we could cooperate with a digital map company to see if we can develop a specialized intelligent navigation service for couriers, which can save them time and effort. If the effect is good, we can also promote this navigation system!"
Qi Xuan looked at her with a complicated expression. Her thoughts were always so wild and unrestrained, yet so precise. She was still considering acquiring the express company, and she had already started planning to create a map navigation system. Of course, if this matter truly succeeded, the future profits would be considerable.
"Let's do as you say," Qi Xuan nodded.
"Thank you so much, Qi Xuan, you're truly a good person!" Ye Zhi said with surprise.
Qi Xuan: ...
He didn't want a "good person" card, thank you.
"How long are you planning to deliver express packages?" he asked.
"Three days," Ye Zhi said. "One day is too short to see any problems. Too long is also not good. Even if I want to, the thousands of investors won't give me too much time."
"Okay," Qi Xuan nodded. "Your fitness plan is paused for these few days. We'll resume it after three days."
"Then thank you, Coach Qi~" Ye Zhi smiled faintly.
Afterward, Ye Zhi had lunch and continued delivering express packages.
Qi Xuan did not try to dissuade her; he knew it was futile. Moreover, rather than persuading her not to do it, it was better to support her in doing what she liked.
Three days passed in a flash. Ye Zhi was driving her express delivery van, but her heart was filled with regret. She truly felt that people shouldn't be too talkative. She had suffered losses from this before, why hadn't she learned her lesson?
As her three-day delivery career ended, the owner of Shunda personally found her, and the two had a cordial and friendly conversation.
Everything was going well at first, but then Ye Zhi couldn't help but praise their express delivery van, saying it had good shock absorption and was very stable.
The owner of Shunda was so pleased that he insisted on gifting Ye Zhi a van.
Ye Zhi couldn't refuse and accepted.
The owner of Shunda initially planned to have someone deliver the van to her, but on impulse, thinking she knew how to drive, she volunteered to drive it back herself. The owner of Shunda agreed.
However, as the half-mountain villa grew closer, Ye Zhi realized the seriousness of the situation.
Driving such an express delivery van back to her half-mountain villa, wouldn't she die of embarrassment?!
So, she bought a mask on the way and covered her face, wanting to return discreetly.
But as soon as she approached the villa area, she was stopped by the security guards.
The security guard said, "Stop, stop! Express delivery vans aren't allowed in here! Leave the packages here, and we'll deliver them for you!"
Ye Zhi dejectedly took off her mask and said helplessly, "It's me, I'm going home."
The security guard froze for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Ms. Ye?! Why are you driving an express delivery van back?"
"A friend gave it to me," Ye Zhi said helplessly.
"Oh, oh..." The security guard was bewildered. Are rich people now gifting express delivery vans? Is this a hobby? However, he didn't ask further and quickly cleared the way, "Please come in."
Ye Zhi nodded and continued driving the express delivery van home.
However, it was now evening, and her neighbors had all returned home. Ye Zhi had specifically visited her neighbors before, so everyone knew her.
Thus, Ye Zhi paraded through the neighborhood under the surprised gazes of many neighbors.
"Is that an express delivery van? Why is there an express delivery van here?"
"The person driving the express delivery van also looks familiar, it seems to be Ms. Ye from Taoxun..."
"The one from Taoxun that's so popular lately? Young people nowadays are indeed so hardworking!"
"Dad, Dad, what kind of car is that? Why haven't I seen it before?"
"That's an express delivery van."
"Daddy, then buy me one too! I want to go to school in an express delivery van!"
"Be good, son, how about Daddy buys you a different car?"
"No, no, I want an express delivery van! Wahhh..."
...
Listening to the murmurs along the way, Ye Zhi felt utterly dejected. She... she kind of wanted to just disappear.
Finally returning to her house, she stopped the car and saw the butler from across the way walking out with a look of surprise.
"Miss Ye, is this your new car?" the butler asked curiously.
"Mhm..." Ye Zhi nodded.
"This looks quite stylish!" the butler said, walking around the car.
"If you like it, I'll give it to you," Ye Zhi sighed.
The butler was taken aback and then said happily, "Then thank you, Miss Ye! I'll use this car to buy groceries for you from now on!"
Ye Zhi: ... Can she take the car back now?
Clearly, it was too late. The butler was very fond of the express delivery van. He immediately got in and started learning how to drive it. Soon, he learned, and then he drove the express delivery van around the neighborhood many times.
"I haven't seen the butler so happy in a long time," Qi Xuan said as he came to Ye Zhi's side, smiling faintly.
"It's good if Uncle Butler likes it. I don't have any use for it anyway," Ye Zhi said with relief.
Her feeling of embarrassment had subsided quite a bit. Or rather, since she couldn't resist, she had accepted reality. In a couple of days, she would buy another one for the child next door. Didn't he want one? Let's all be embarrassed together.
"Do you want one? I'll give you one too," Ye Zhi asked, turning her head.
