How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 45

A Must to Embarrass Him—So What If a Ride-Hailing Driver Has Some Money? (1)

Zhao Yun clearly cares about Li Yun, treating her like a sister. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have given up her seat so easily.

If Li Yun felt the same way about Zhao Yun, she would have refused the offer more firmly.

However, after a few token refusals, Li Yun accepted.

Yang Chen thinks Li Yun is a bit of a schemer, the type to prioritize personal gain over a friend’s feelings.

Sigh…

This girl is so naive.

She almost got tricked into going to a hotel by Zhang Hengzhi a few days ago because of her roommate’s plot.

Now she’s treating a potentially manipulative person like her best friend. Isn’t that foolish?

However, Li Yun hasn’t said or done anything truly outrageous. It wouldn’t be fair for Yang Chen to label her a schemer just yet.

But the passenger seat isn’t for just anyone.

Especially not for someone Yang Chen dislikes. He definitely won’t let Li Yun sit there.

Yang Chen said, “Then you two can share a taxi. I’ll head to the Baoqing Restaurant’s University Town branch and wait for you. See you later.”

With that, Yang Chen revved the engine a few times, startling nearby pedestrians.

As expected of a top-tier sports car, even the exhaust sounds impressive.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone around, Yang Chen sped away in the Bugatti Veyron.

Along the way, drivers of various luxury cars leaned out, snapping photos of the rare Bugatti Veyron.

Suddenly, their Mercedes-Benzes, BMWs, and Porsches seemed less impressive.

Cars ahead slowed at the sound of the engine, and when they saw the Bugatti Veyron approaching, they quickly moved aside.

Yang Chen couldn’t help but think that luxury cars are great; they practically have an automatic lane-clearing function.

Zhao Yun pouted, clearly a little upset.

Li Yun quickly apologized, “Xiao Yun, I’m sorry. I didn’t expect it to turn out this way, so neither of us gets a ride.”

Zhao Yun immediately smiled again and said, “It’s okay. Yang Chen is right; since we’re taking a taxi anyway, we might as well go together.”

Lin Nanyou scoffed, “See? They don’t even care about you. If you chase after him in a taxi now, what would you look like? A gold digger?”

Zhao Yun chuckled and retorted, “So what if I’m a gold digger? At least there’s gold to dig. What about you? What do you have? Can you even compare what you show off to his car?”

Lin Nanyou was speechless.

Zhao Yun snorted and left with Li Yun.

What a humiliating experience!

Lin Nanyou has always been arrogant because of his family’s wealth, but he never expected to be outdone by money.

Zhao Yun hailed a taxi, and she and Li Yun headed to the Baoqing Restaurant’s University Town branch.

The onlookers began to gossip.

“Sigh… see? With enough money, even the most beautiful women will fawn over you.”

“I’m so jealous; I wish I could drive a car like that.”

“Sigh… driving such a nice car isn’t even the most enviable thing. What’s most enviable is that he’ll be ‘driving’ two beautiful ‘cars’ tonight, and they’re probably both brand new.”

“I think you have a dirty mind, and I have proof.”

…

Unbearable!

The onlookers’ comments deeply wounded Lin Nanyou’s confidence and self-esteem.

The surrounding people looked at the stunned Lin Nanyou with mischievous smiles.

His companions whispered, asking Lin Nanyou what to do.

Lin Nanyou replied weakly, “What can we do? Someone who drives a car like that is definitely not simple. What can I do to him?”

“But… I don’t think he’s very familiar with that car. It might not even be his.”

“Yeah, it’s weird. Who would park such an expensive car at a university entrance? There are so many people and cars around. Isn’t he worried about it getting scratched?”

“How could a ride-hailing driver afford a car like that? I bet he’s a 代驾 (dài jià, hired driver).”

…

After hearing his companions’ words, Lin Nanyou felt they made sense.

“Okay, I’ll have my sister check if there’s a Yang Chen in Hai City,” Lin Nanyou said.

The companions nodded.

Lin Nanyou got into the car and called his sister, Lin Xiyou.

The call connected quickly.

Lin Xiyou: “Hello, brother, what’s up? I’m busy.”

Lin Nanyou: “Big sister, can you check if there’s a guy named Yang Chen in Hai City who drives a Bugatti Veyron?”

Lin Xiyou: “No. There are only three Bugatti Veyrons in Hai City. Qin Feng, Song Siming, and Yu Cheng own them. Who’s Yang Chen? Never heard of him!”

Lin Nanyou was overjoyed.

The YC in 海中 (Hǎizhōng, a district in Hai City) isn’t the abbreviation of Yang Chen’s name but of Yu Cheng’s name.

A broke ride-hailing driver is also working as a substitute driver, and he dares to show off in front of me!

Lin Xiyou quickly asked, “Why are you asking about this?”

Lin Nanyou: “Don’t even mention it; it makes me angry.”

Lin Xiyou: “Who is it? Who dares to bully my brother? Do they have a death wish? I’m discussing business at Baoqing Restaurant. I’ll look for you when I’m done. Where are you?”

Baoqing Restaurant?

When Yang Chen drove away, he said he was going to Baoqing Restaurant to wait for Zhao Yun.

This is perfect timing; a chance for revenge.

Lin Nanyou: “Which branch are you at? The University Town branch?”

Lin Xiyou: “Yes! I’m at the University Town branch. What’s wrong?”

Lin Nanyou: “Great, he’s also going to the Baoqing Restaurant University Town branch for dinner. Wait for me; I’ll come find you right away.”

Lin Xiyou: “Who is it? The person who offended you?”

Lin Nanyou: “A ride-hailing driver who’s asking for trouble! I’ll go find you now!”

Lin Xiyou: “Okay! Come over! Today, I’ll help you get revenge, no matter who he is.”

Lin Nanyou: “Haha… thank you, sister; love you.”

Lin Xiyou: “You’re my only brother; who else would I help? Come on; I’ll wait for you.”

Lin Nanyou immediately hung up, opened the car window, and shouted, “Brothers, my sister checked, and there’s no one in Hai City with his name who drives a Bugatti Veyron. My sister is at Baoqing Restaurant; let’s go find her now. He dared to embarrass me; I’m going to make him lose all face today!”

The companions immediately laughed.

They don’t really care whether Yang Chen loses face.

It’s Lin Nanyou who’s losing face, not them.

The main thing is that they’re going to Baoqing Restaurant, so Lin Nanyou will definitely treat them to dinner, right?

Don’t be fooled by these rich second generations driving luxury cars. Most of them don’t have much money.

Because they have time to hang out, which means they’re not the family successors. It must be their siblings.

Since they’re not family successors, their usual allowance is limited.

And they’re used to spending lavishly, so that little allowance isn’t enough.

They’ll be very happy if their companions treat them to dinner or go to a bar.

Take Lin Nanyou, for example. He drives a sports car all day because he’s not the family successor; his sister Lin Xiyou is.

Lin Xiyou is 20 years older than Lin Nanyou and has been smart since she was a child.

From kindergarten to graduate school, she has always been one of the best students.

Because his father, Lin Xiaotian, is in poor health, and Lin Nanyou was still young, Lin Xiyou took over the family business.

Although Lin Xiaotian has always wanted Lin Nanyou to take over the family business, he’s not cut out for it. He’s more likely to mess things up than succeed.

For the sake of the entire family, Lin Xiaotian can only let Lin Xiyou continue to manage the business.

And Lin Xiyou is also very cunning.

She knows that she’s a daughter, so she can’t inherit the family business according to tradition.

So, she came up with a plan: spoil Lin Nanyou without limit.

As long as Lin Nanyou keeps causing trouble, the family business can’t be handed over to him, and Lin Xiyou can continue to manage it.

When Lin Xiaotian suddenly passes away, or Lin Xiyou replaces all the department heads with her confidants, Lin Nanyou will have no chance of taking over the business.

And Lin Nanyou is becoming more and more of a mess under his sister’s pampering, already on the road to being a useless person.

The reason Lin Xiyou agreed without hesitation when Lin Nanyou asked for her help is because of this.

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go now!”

“Damn it, I didn’t like him from the start. I’m going to embarrass him later!”

“Stop talking nonsense; let’s go quickly!”

…

Lin Nanyou originally wanted to explain to the students to save face.

But his companions seemed even more eager than him, so he had no choice but to give up and quickly drive to Baoqing Restaurant…
