How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 29

Yang Chen hadn’t expected to make much money driving for ride-hailing services, but that didn’t mean he could just slack off.

Because of that one bad review, he needed to accumulate dozens of good ones to pull his overall rating back up.

So, whenever he had the time and energy, he needed to do as many rides as possible.

More good reviews meant he wouldn’t panic so much when he encountered weird passengers.

After just two rides, Yang Chen received a call from Zhang Yaowu.

Zhang Yaowu was still trying to resolve the issue with money, hoping Yang Chen would take it and forgive Zhang Hengzhi.

Yang Chen replied, clearly annoyed, “Zhang Yaowu, didn’t I sign that non-forgiveness agreement in front of you yesterday? Why are you still pushing this? You and your son are so arrogant, thinking money can solve everything. Well, use that money on your son’s case and see if you can get him acquitted. Calling me is a waste of time. I won’t have any private talks with you. Is that clear enough?”

Zhang Yaowu chuckled coldly. “Young man, don’t be so cocky. I’m being very polite in trying to find a solution with you. Don’t be ungrateful. What if you’re walking down the street one day and a rock just happens to fall from the sky and hit you on the head? The consequences could be severe.”

“Are you threatening me? Too bad, it won’t work. I don’t have time to waste with you. Goodbye. Don’t call me again, or I’ll report you to the police.” Yang Chen hung up.

On the other end, Zhang Yaowu was furious, cursing, “Damn it, a poor ride-hailing driver dares to talk back to me! I’ll show you what’s what. You’ll learn that this world is divided into the haves and have-nots! Damn!”

As evening approached, Wang Qianni suddenly called Yang Chen.

“Hey, are you free?” Wang Qianni asked.

Yang Chen had just accepted a ride and was on his way to pick up the customer.

So, he quickly said, “I’m not free! I’m driving. I just got an order and have to pick someone up. I don’t have time to talk right now.”

“Hey, wait a minute. Didn’t Zhang Hengzhi smash your car? How are you driving?” Wang Qianni asked.

“What are you talking about? Can’t I buy another car?” Yang Chen replied.

“Oh, that’s right. Then go pick up your customer. After you drop them off, come pick me up. I need a ride. Is that okay?” Wang Qianni asked.

“Of course, there’s a problem. Don’t you have a Porsche 911? Why do you need to take my ride-hailing car?” Yang Chen retorted.

“My car is in the shop for maintenance. Just come, I’m not going to stiff you [not pay you]. Charge me taxi rates, okay?” Wang Qianni replied.

“Okay! Send me your location, and I’ll pick you up later,” Yang Chen replied.

Wang Qianni happily hummed and quickly hung up.

Then she sent her location to Yang Chen.

Yang Chen picked up the customer, dropped them off, and followed the navigation to find Wang Qianni.

It was an apartment building by the roadside.

When Yang Chen arrived, he called Wang Qianni.

Soon, a girl in a white pleated skirt by the roadside answered her phone.

Yang Chen looked over and was a little stunned.

Was that fair-skinned, clean, and elegant girl really Wang Qianni?

Wang Qianni answered the phone and said, “Hello, where are you?”

“I’m right in front of you. Can’t you see me?” Yang Chen replied.

Wang Qianni quickly looked down at the driver of the Volkswagen in front of her. Confirming it was Yang Chen, she quickly got into the car.

And she sat in the passenger seat.

“Why did you buy a Volkswagen? With your status as the second-largest shareholder of the Peninsula Hotel, you should be driving a Porsche or something,” Wang Qianni asked.

Yang Chen was carefully looking at Wang Qianni.

Her tattoos were gone, and her skin was fair and radiant. He wondered if it was as smooth and tender as it looked.

And because she only wore light makeup, it was completely different from her previous smoky makeup as a rebellious girl. She looked prettier and more pleasing to the eye.

Wang Qianni lifted her skirt slightly and slid her hand over her leg, saying, “How is it? My long legs, are they long and white?”

Good heavens, as soon as she opened her mouth, Yang Chen’s beautiful fantasies about her vanished.

What proper goddess would be so unrestrained when she speaks?

“Can you not talk? You’re a 99 [out of 100] if you don’t talk, but a 59 when you do,” Yang Chen said mercilessly.

Wang Qianni immediately shut her mouth, then put down her skirt and acted like a lady.

Yang Chen smiled helplessly and asked, “Where did you get your tattoos removed? They’re so clean.”

Wang Qianni didn’t speak.

Yang Chen rolled his eyes speechlessly and said, “Why aren’t you talking?”

“No, I want to be a 99-point woman in your heart. I don’t want to be a 59-point loser in your eyes,” Wang Qianni replied.

Oh, damn, she really found an excuse.

“Get out of the car if you don’t talk. I don’t want a piece of wood sitting next to me,” Yang Chen said.

Wang Qianni immediately complained, “Why are you so hard to please, you stinky man? I told you to look at my long legs, and you thought I was a little unrestrained. Now I’m not talking, and you’re not happy. So, do you want me to be a 99 or a 59?”

“I think you can be a 59 now. You can stay at 99 after you answer my question,” Yang Chen replied helplessly.

Wang Qianni nodded and said, “Got it. Actually, those weren’t tattoos, they were stickers. You didn’t really think a beautiful girl like me would tattoo Guan Gong [a famous Chinese general often depicted in tattoos] on herself, did you? You’re too silly. Haha…”

Yang Chen looked at Wang Qianni, who was laughing so hard she was bending over, with an embarrassed expression. He didn’t know what to say.

After Wang Qianni laughed enough, Yang Chen asked, “Are you done laughing? Where are we going now? I still have to make money to support myself. Tell me the destination quickly, and I’ll take you there now.”

“I booked a table at Queen Mary’s Restaurant. I’m treating you to dinner tonight,” Wang Qianni said with a smile.

Yang Chen shook his head and said, “Thank you. I don’t have time. I have to drive. Besides, why are you treating me to dinner? Are you trying to get me drunk and harvest my kidney in a hotel?”

“Haha… You’re so handsome. Even if I wanted to harvest your kidney, I’d have to sleep with you enough times before doing it. Oh, sorry, I was a little unrestrained again. You don’t like girls like that, do you? It’s okay, it’s okay, you like gentle girls, and I can be gentle. Actually, I want to thank you. Didn’t you introduce Tianmu Investment Company to us? I heard my dad say that they’ve already reached an agreement, and they can wait for the funds to arrive after signing the contract tomorrow morning. So, I want to thank you. I originally wanted to offer myself, but you’re too cowardly, so I had to change it to dinner,” Wang Qianni said exaggeratedly.

If that was the case, Wang Qianni should indeed treat him to dinner to thank him.

However, Yang Chen didn’t care about a meal. Her intention was enough.

“Okay, I’ve received your intention. No need for dinner. I have to go drive,” Yang Chen said.

Wang Qianni was speechless. She lifted her skirt again, stuck out her chest, and said, “Bro, are you kidding me? A fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged girl with big boobs, a small waist, and a fat butt is asking you to dinner, and you’re telling me you have to go drive? Are you even a man? Is there any difference between your behavior and Sun Wukong [the Monkey King from Chinese mythology] freezing the Seven Fairies and only picking peaches? Do you have a problem with your orientation? If you were even a little normal, you wouldn’t say you have to go drive.”
