Aiding Others is a Great Joy in Life – What’s Wrong with a Ride-Hailing Driver Having Some Money?
Male Passenger: “Xin Xin, just come downstairs. I brought you a bouquet of flowers. Let’s go see a movie first, and then have a nice meal at Dream Paris, okay?”
Xin Xin: “I played games too late last night. I really don’t want to get up. It’s tiring enough putting things together at work during the week. It’s rare to have a Sunday, so I just want to rest at home.”
Male Passenger: “But didn’t we agree yesterday? I got up early to buy you flowers, did my hair, and put on the clothes I just bought. I prepared so much for this date, you can’t just say you’re not going.”
Xin Xin: “Then what do you want me to do? I feel awful right now. Do you think I’m in the mood to watch a movie and have a nice meal?”
Male Passenger: “Then we won’t go to the movies. Can I come up and keep you company?”
Xin Xin: “Ugh, you’re really annoying! I already said I’m not feeling well and want to sleep. Why are you trying to come to my house? Just leave now, and I’ll go on a date with you after work tomorrow, okay?”
*This woman is definitely angry; she’s speaking very loudly. Yang Chen can hear her.*
*It’s obvious that the woman doesn’t take this guy seriously. He’s just a backup at best.*
*It’s just that this guy hasn’t figured out his position and really wants to take her out.*
*And she seems to be urging this guy to leave quickly.*
Yang Chen hates people who play with others like this the most. If you like someone, you like them; if you don’t, you clearly reject them. Why give them a little attention when you feel like it and push them away when you don’t want them?
To make this guy recognize the reality and stop being a stupid simp [a person who does too much for someone they like, often unreciprocated].
Yang Chen decided to help him out.
“Young Master, are you ready? My boss still needs the car later. After I drop you off at the cinema, I have to hurry to the riverside villa to pick up my boss for a company meeting. He can’t be late for the meeting, or I’ll definitely get chewed out,” Yang Chen said loudly.
The male passenger was stunned, looking at Yang Chen with a dumbfounded expression.
Yang Chen winked at him, and he immediately understood.
At this moment, Xin Xin asked, “Gangzi, who was that talking just now?”
Male Passenger: “It’s my family’s driver. My dad needs the car later; he doesn’t dare to delay. He’s urging me to hurry up.”
Xin Xin: “Ah? Your family’s driver? What kind of car did you come in?”
Yang Chen quickly said with his lips: “Phaeton!”
Male Passenger: “Phaeton.”
Xin Xin: “What kind of car is a Phaeton?”
Male Passenger: “It’s a high-end luxury car, about two million yuan [roughly $300,000 USD]. It looks similar to a Volkswagen Passat; only low-key rich people would buy it. Those *nouveau riche* [newly rich] who like to show off wouldn’t buy this kind of luxury car.”
Xin Xin: “It would be bad to delay Uncle’s meeting. Wait for me; I’ll come down right away. See you later, darling.”
Hanging up the phone, the male passenger was stunned.
He understood; he had an epiphany.
Xin Xin wasn’t feeling unwell, nor did she want to sleep; she just simply looked down on him and didn’t want to go out with him.
As soon as she heard that he had a driver and was driving a two-million-yuan Phaeton, her head immediately stopped hurting, her back wasn’t sore anymore, she wasn’t swaying when she walked, and she ran down from the sixth floor in one breath.
Xin Xin deliberately looked at the car logo from behind and compared it with the Phaeton logo she had just searched online, and it was exactly the same.
“Darling, thank you for picking me up. Muah…”
Xin Xin hugged Gangzi and started kissing him.
She said on the phone that she wasn’t feeling well and wanted to sleep, but she was clearly dressed up beautifully with heavy makeup on her face.
Is that how you dress for sleeping?
From the time she hung up the phone to the time she ran downstairs, it was less than two minutes, and it was impossible for her to put on such makeup in that short amount of time.
Then there’s only one possibility: she did have a date today, but the target wasn’t this guy.
Alas…
The sorrow of a simp.
Gangzi asked, “Didn’t you say you weren’t feeling well? That you played too late last night and wanted to sleep?”
Xin Xin: “Oh, you specially drove to pick me up, so I can’t be insensitive, right? Let’s go, let’s go see a movie.”
Yang Chen couldn’t wait any longer; he had already wasted more than ten minutes here.
“Young Master, hurry up. My boss is still waiting at home for me to pick him up,” Yang Chen said loudly.
Just then, a Mercedes C300 drove over.
The driver honked the horn twice. Yang Chen thought he was blocking the way and was about to move when the Mercedes driver rushed down angrily.
Xin Xin was shocked. *Oh no! She was so excited when she heard that Gangzi was driving a 2 million Phaeton that she forgot to send away today’s real date.*
*Now that he’s come to her door, wouldn’t that be a disaster?*
The Mercedes driver was very irritable and started fighting with Gangzi.
“Hey, stop fighting! Stop fighting! Driver, hurry up and pull your young master away,” Xin Xin shouted.
Since he was helping, Yang Chen quickly got out of the car and pushed the Mercedes owner to the ground, saying, “Young Master, if I beat him to death today, can you get my boss to spend money to bail me out?”
Gangzi quickly replied, “Definitely! Beat him to death! If you get arrested, I’ll go bankrupt to get you out!”
“Okay! Sorry, brother!” Yang Chen said, about to attack the Mercedes owner.
The Mercedes owner saw that something was wrong and quickly said, “Brother, wait, wait. You… aren’t you just a factory worker? How… how can you be…”
Gangzi smoothed his hair and said, “I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but I didn’t expect to be looked down upon by you. Forget it, I won’t pretend anymore; I’m a rich second generation [a person born into wealth]. See that? That’s my dad’s car, a Phaeton, a two-million-yuan car. You’re showing off in front of me with a broken Mercedes; are you crazy!”
*Damn, this guy is quite good at pretending.*
*Yang Chen is so rich now, but he can’t pretend like that.*
Yang Chen thought, *”I don’t have a son like you. If my son is a simp like you in the future, I’ll break his legs directly. It’s better to support him for the rest of his life than for him to be such a wimp.”*
The Mercedes owner took a closer look at Yang Chen’s car and realized it was really a Phaeton. He thought it was a Passat just now.
People who can afford a Phaeton must not be short of money, and those who have money and are willing to buy a Phaeton must be low-key rich people, mostly some state-owned enterprise bosses, low-key and not ostentatious, but not losing their status.
The Mercedes owner is just a small factory owner and doesn’t dare to go against someone driving a Phaeton.
The Mercedes owner said angrily, “Li Xin Xin, why are you still flirting with me when you have such a boyfriend? You lied to me and said he was just a…
a factory worker.”
Li Xin Xin said very guiltily, “I didn’t know his real identity was a rich second generation. Leave; don’t come looking for me again in the future. I am now officially Gangzi’s girlfriend.”
Mercedes owner: “You’re playing me? Fine, you’re ruthless!”
After speaking, he turned and walked towards his car.
Li Xin Xin hugged Gangzi’s arm with a happy face and said, “Darling, let’s go see a movie now.”
Gangzi nodded with a smile, and the two turned and walked towards Yang Chen’s car.
At this moment, a car stopped next to them.
The driver stuck his head out and shouted, “Xiao Yang, are you in trouble?”
Yang Chen turned his head and saw that it was Zhang He from the driver group.
Yang Chen quickly shook his head and hurried forward to stop him from speaking.
Zhang He asked with a smile, “How’s it going today? How many rides have you given?”
“It’s over!” Yang Chen thought to himself.
Li Xin Xin let go of Gangzi and asked, “What do you mean? Who is he anyway?”
Gangzi was deflated and replied, “He… he’s a ride-hailing driver. I took his car here.”
“Ah? You lied to me!” Li Xin Xin roared, then she quickly turned around to chase the Mercedes.
“Liangzi, Liangzi, don’t go! What am I going to do if you leave! Liangzi, Liangzi!” Li Xin Xin shouted as she chased, but the Mercedes disappeared without mercy.
Lin Xin Xin ran back, raised her hand and slapped Gangzi, scolding, “It’s all your fault! You actually lied to me, making Liangzi angry. You bastard, go apologize to him!”
Yang Chen really couldn’t stand it anymore and said, “Brother, aren’t you going to put up with it anymore? Can’t you see what kind of person she is? Do you think she will stay with you?”
Gangzi’s expression gradually became ferocious, his eyes widened, and then he shouted and slapped Li Xin Xin.
After hitting her, he pushed Yang Chen into the car and left.
In order not to cause trouble, Yang Chen quickly drove away.
If Li Xin Xin calls the police later, it will be difficult to leave.
Yang Chen said with a smile, “Brother, you’re tough!”
Gangzi was silent.
Soon, they arrived at the cinema.
Gangzi said lightly, “Thank you, driver.”
“You’re welcome; helping others is a great joy in life. There are plenty of fish in the sea; why bother loving just one flower? Find someone who suits you; it’s much better than this,” Yang Chen replied with a smile.
Gangzi nodded with a smile and then got out of the car.
Yang Chen immediately grabbed an order, and a couple got into the car.
After verifying their identities, Yang Chen drove away.
After a while, the ride-hailing platform reminded Yang Chen that he had received a bad review.
Yang Chen was dumbfounded on the spot…
