Liu Xueying entered the steakhouse and deliberately chose a table right next to Yang Chen.
She ordered an M9 tomahawk steak set and instructed the waiter to add Yang Chen’s bill to her tab.
Yang Chen smiled, set down his phone, and said, “Miss Liu, you’re quite attractive, and those yoga pants certainly accentuate your figure. You could easily be considered a top-tier woman. Plus, you drive a Bentley, so your family must be well-off. You must have plenty of admirers, so why bother with a humble ride-hailing driver like me?”
Liu Xueying: “Because you’re the only one who dared to crash into my car.”
Yang Chen: “But I already pointed out, your car rolled into mine, I didn’t crash into you.”
Liu Xueying: “That just proves we’re destined. Why has my car never rolled away before, but it happened when I met you? Don’t you think that’s fate? Since it’s fate, you should just accept it. What’s destined by heaven is the greatest.”
Yang Chen: “Do you know who I am?”
Liu Xueying: “You said your name is Yang Chen.”
Yang Chen: “Yes, besides that?”
Liu Xueying shook her head and said, “Then I don’t know.”
Yang Chen: “I’m Yang Chen, the CEO of Starlight Group.”
Liu Xueying chuckled, covering her mouth with a smile, and said, “Big brother, there’s no need for that. I’m not a gold digger. I didn’t look down on you for being a ride-hailing driver, so there’s no need to pretend to be someone else. Just be yourself, you’re a handsome young man. Do you drink? I’ll treat you. Romanée-Conti or Lafite [two very expensive and prestigious wines]? I’ll cover all the expenses today, order whatever you want.”
Liu Xueying assumed Yang Chen was just a ride-hailing driver who had probably never tasted expensive wines like Romanée-Conti.
*Could there be a man in this world who wouldn’t be impressed by her generosity?*
Yang Chen smiled and shook his head, saying, “Thank you. I have to drive, so I can’t drink.”
Liu Xueying’s steak set arrived.
Yang Chen: “Huh? Waiter, I ordered first, why is hers ready first?”
Waiter: “Sorry, sir, Miss Liu is our VIP and has priority. Yours will be ready soon, please wait a moment. Sorry.”
Liu Xueying ostentatiously took out her platinum membership card and deliberately placed it on the corner of the table closer to Yang Chen.
“Be my friend, and I guarantee you can enjoy VIP treatment in any venue in Hecheng. How about it?” Liu Xueying said with a smile.
Yang Chen shook his head and said, “No need. I won’t be here for many days, so no need to bother.”
Liu Xueying: “Ah? Aren’t you a local of Hecheng?”
Yang Chen: “I’m from Haicheng.”
Liu Xueying: “Oh, what a pity… But it doesn’t matter, I can come to see you when I have time, and you can come to see me when you have time. Distance makes the heart grow fonder, don’t you think?”
Yang Chen laughed heartily, unsure how to respond.
Just then, someone approached to ask if they could add Liu Xueying on WeChat [a popular Chinese messaging and social media app].
To be honest, her figure was truly top-notch. Many men might hesitate to marry a girl like that, fearing they couldn’t handle her, but they certainly wouldn’t refuse to date her.
Liu Xueying said with a smile, “Sorry, my WeChat friends list is full, I can’t add you.”
The man said with a smile, “Then delete someone you don’t contact often, I guarantee I’ll be there whenever you call.”
*This is why many people are hesitant to marry this type of girl; there’s a subconscious feeling that women with figures like hers are playful and easily tempted.*
However, she is, after all, the daughter of the chairman, and must be different from those gold diggers.
Liu Xueying: “Big brother, can’t you read the room? I’m making an excuse to reject you to save you from embarrassment, don’t you get it? Do I have to say directly that you’re too ugly and I don’t want to add you as a friend? If you were as handsome as him, I would add you myself.”
The man glanced at Yang Chen, then said with a sneer, “Wow, what are you pretending for? I know you yoga girls, aren’t your targets all rich old men in their 40s and 50s? I have money too, I have more than a dozen houses at home.”
Liu Xueying: “My name is Liu Xueying, and my father is Liu Congren, the chairman of iFlytek Group. Are you trying to compare who has more houses than me?”
The man’s face immediately changed, and he nodded and bowed with an awkward smile before walking away.
Yang Chen said with a smile, “You are the daughter of the iFlytek chairman, why would you need to take the initiative to befriend a ride-hailing driver like me?”
Liu Xueying: “To be honest, I just think you’re handsome. I’m not showing off my wealth to you. As long as it’s not something too outrageous, I can have whatever I want. Now I just want to find a handsome and strong man to marry. I think you fit my aesthetic—handsome but not effeminate, strong but not rough. Marry me, and you won’t have to drive a ride-hailing car anymore. You just need to eat, drink, and have fun with me every day, and I can give you 100,000 yuan [approximately $14,000 USD] of private money every month. You can spend it however you want, I won’t ask or check your accounts. How about it? Brother, such a good opportunity may only come once in a lifetime, you have to seize it.”
At this time, the waiter served Yang Chen’s meal.
Yang Chen first took a bite of the steak to taste it, and then replied, “Miss Liu is offering such tempting conditions to a ride-hailing driver, I can’t help but suspect that you want to harvest my kidneys. Or you have other purposes. In short, I don’t quite believe that a pampered young lady would be so proactive and sincere towards a ride-hailing driver.”
Liu Xueying: “Wow, you men are really impossible. When people are aloof, you say I’m pretending. When people finally take the initiative, you say I have bad intentions. Then what do you want me to do?”
Yang Chen: “Haha… Let’s just say everything Miss Liu said is true, but I don’t want to be a kept man right now. Thank you.”
Liu Xueying took out a piece of stationery, wrote her number and name on it, and put it on Yang Chen’s table.
Liu Xueying: “Call me when you figure it out. After you finish eating, shall we go shopping together? I’ll buy you AJ [Air Jordans]. How about it?”
Yang Chen: “No need to buy AJ, that style doesn’t suit me. Then I’ll contact Miss Liu when I want to be a kept man.”
Liu Xueying: “Sigh… An opportunity is delivered to your hands, and you can still throw it away.”
More than half an hour later, Yang Chen finished his dinner.
“Waiter, check, please.”
Waiter: “Sir, your bill is on Miss Liu’s account.”
“No! I’ll pay for it myself,” Yang Chen replied, and then took out his special unlimited black gold card from the Bank of China.
Liu Xueying’s eyes lit up immediately, and she said, “Huh?
What is this card? Why haven’t I seen the Bank of China have such a card? I am a super VIP customer of the Bank of China.”
Yang Chen: “Maybe you’re not high enough level.”
Liu Xueying: “Big brother, a ride-hailing driver like you can get this card, and I’m not high enough level?”
Yang Chen swiped his card to pay the bill and said, “I wish Miss Liu finds someone who loves her back soon. Goodbye.”
Liu Xueying quickly had the waiter swipe her card to pay the bill and chased Yang Chen out.
As soon as she went outside, her father, Liu Congren, called her.
Liu Xueying: “Hello, Dad, what’s up?”
Liu Congren: “What are you doing?”
Liu Xueying: “Dad, let me tell you, I saw a boy I really like. Not only is he handsome, but he’s also very strong, and his temperament is particularly good, which completely meets my criteria for choosing a spouse. Although he is a ride-hailing driver, he is not greedy for money. I took the initiative to befriend him, but he was unwilling.”
Liu Congren: “Is that so? He’s probably playing hard to get.”
Liu Xueying: “I don’t know, sigh… Dad, haven’t you been urging me to find a partner? Now I finally met someone I like, but he doesn’t seem to like me. What do you think I should do?”
Liu Congren: “Are you kidding me? In Hecheng, who doesn’t like my daughter, Liu Congren’s daughter?”
Liu Xueying: “Um, he seems to be from Haicheng, not Hecheng.”
Liu Congren: “Oh, no wonder… Hmm? What about being from Haicheng? My identity as Liu Congren works all over the country. Where are you now? Dad will go and support you, I don’t believe I can’t handle a ride-hailing driver. But, daughter, you have to be sure you really like him. If you don’t really like him, it would be embarrassing for our family to have a ride-hailing driver as a son-in-law. Only if you really like him, Dad is willing to lose face. For you, Dad is willing to do anything, as long as you are happy.”
Liu Xueying: “Of course I really like him, otherwise, why would I waste a night following him? We are at Yida Plaza, and he seems to be going up to buy something.”
Liu Congren: “Okay! You wait, I’ll go over and help you take him down! My daughter finally likes a stinky boy, it must be successful.”
Liu Xueying: “Hehe… Thank you, Dad. Hurry up, I’m following him.”
Hanging up the phone, Liu Xueying quickly followed.
Yida Plaza is quite popular in Hecheng, and there are really a lot of people inside.
Yang Chen didn’t have anything to buy, he just came in to stroll around and be among the crowds.
About half an hour later, Liu Congren and Liu Xueying met.
Liu Congren: “Daughter, where is the boy you like? I want to see what kind of person can make my daughter so fascinated, that he doesn’t even like my daughter, Liu Congren’s daughter.”
Liu Xueying pointed to Yang Chen, who was looking at his phone in the Longwei store, and said, “It’s him! How is it? Can you tell from his back that he is different from others?”
Liu Congren: “Why do I think he looks a bit familiar?”
Liu Xueying: “Hehe… This is fate. It shows that you also like him, and you two will definitely get along well in the future.”
Liu Congren walked in with a puzzled look, came to Yang Chen and stretched his head to look, and was immediately shocked to say
“Oh, I knew he looked familiar. President Yang, hello, hello.”
Yang Chen: “Oh, Chairman Liu, why are you here?”
Liu Congren: “Oh, it’s a little embarrassing to say.”
Liu Xueying looked confused and quickly asked, “Dad, do you know each other?”
Liu Congren: “Oh, he is… I’ll tell you later. President Yang, this is my daughter, I’m really sorry, I made you laugh.”
Yang Chen: “Haha… It’s okay, your daughter is very good, very brave. There are not many brave girls like this now.”
Liu Congren: “Haha… I’m ashamed, I’m ashamed… Xueying, quickly apologize to President Yang, you are really messing around.”
Liu Xueying: “Apologizing is no problem, but you have to let me know who he is. Oh, by the way, he just used a Bank of China card that I have never seen before. He said my level is not high enough.”
Liu Congren: “Then your level must not be high enough. President Yang is… I’ll tell you when we go out later, there are too many people here. President Yang, please take your time, we’ll wait outside.”
Yang Chen: “If Chairman Liu has nothing to do, you don’t have to wait for me. I’m just looking around.”
Liu Congren: “We have to wait, we have to wait.”
Yang Chen put down his phone and said, “Handsome guy, when will this X5 be in stock?”
Clerk: “It’s hard to say, now it’s all online and offline reservations, and a few units are gone in seconds.”
Yang Chen nodded and said, “Okay, I got it. Thank you.”
Yang Chen followed Liu Congren out, and the group came to Yang Chen’s car to talk.
Liu Congren: “Daughter, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Yang Chen, the boss of the Starlight Group. Now you know how foolish you were, right?”
Liu Xueying was immediately shocked and widened her eyes, saying, “Boss Yang? No wonder he doesn’t like me. I said, with my good conditions, how could a ride-hailing driver not like me? It’s reasonable that you are Boss Yang, you must be surrounded by all kinds of girls every day, you must be tired of it.”
Yang Chen: “Haha… Miss Liu is really good, it’s just that I don’t know how to appreciate it.”
Liu Xueying: “You’re making me embarrassed. Oh, by the way, what kind of card is that? It looks so special, so beautiful, I want one too.”
Yang Chen: “Then Chairman Liu has to work harder. I have deposited hundreds of billions of gold in the Bank of China, and they specially made this exclusive unlimited credit card for me.”
Liu Congren: “Haha… I don’t have that ability, even if I live a few more lives, I can’t earn that much money. President Yang, it’s like this, you see you are also preparing to invest in our company, when can we finalize this cooperation? This afternoon, Chairman Ge of Jianghuai Group called me to show off, saying that you have already signed a contract. I also want to finalize the cooperation with President Yang as soon as possible, and I will feel at ease when I sign it in black and white.”
Yang Chen: “Haha… Then let’s do it tomorrow, I will visit your company at nine o’clock tomorrow morning and sign the cooperation agreement by the way.”
Liu Congren excitedly held Yang Chen’s hand and said, “No problem! Thank you for your support, President Yang.”
iFlytek specializes in intelligent speech and language technology research, software and chip product development, speech information services, and e-government system integration. They have in-depth cooperation with Longwei in artificial intelligence
and chip technology.
From their main business, you can see why Yang Chen wants to invest in them, because Yang Chen wants to make humanoid robots, and they can cooperate in system software, chips, and intelligent language.
At this moment, Yang Chen had a flash of inspiration, and his eyes fell on Liu Xueying.
Liu Xueying thought Yang Chen had discovered her beauty, and smiled confidently and straightened her chest.
*”Hmph! Stinky man, now you’ve discovered my good qualities? Look, look, the more you look, the more you will be obsessed with this lady,”* Liu Xueying thought to herself.
*If a humanoid robot is made according to Liu Xueying’s appearance, it should sell well.*
Oval face, long hair, fair skin, beautiful appearance, long legs, big breasts, thin waist, and fat buttocks—all the characteristics of a top-quality woman are embodied in her. Which normal man can withstand such a test?
Yang Chen: “Chairman Liu, then let’s go to your company to talk tomorrow.”
Liu Congren: “Okay! Then we won’t disturb President Yang. Xueying, let’s go home.”
Liu Xueying: “Ah? Are we leaving now? Well then… President Yang, are you going to our company tomorrow?”
Yang Chen: “Yes!”
Liu Xueying: “Okay! See you tomorrow.”
Yang Chen: “Okay. Let’s add each other as friends.”
Liu Xueying smiled proudly, thinking, *”Stinky man, you’re finally getting the hang of it.”*
Liu Xueying took out her phone and added Yang Chen as a friend, and then happily followed her father away.
Yang Chen sent Liu Xueying a message.
“Miss Liu, send me a set of your beautiful photos. It must be three-dimensional in all directions, so that I can fully and intuitively appreciate your beauty.”
Liu Xueying saw Yang Chen’s message as soon as she got in the car, and immediately smiled proudly.
*”Stinky man, you’re not pretending to be reserved now? Hehe… Got you!”* Liu Xueying muttered softly, and quickly searched her album for her favorite selfies to send to Yang Chen.
You can often see beautiful women wearing yoga pants for fitness on Douyin [a popular Chinese video-sharing social networking service]. No matter how good or bad they look, their figures are definitely top-notch.
But they are far behind Liu Xueying. The most important thing is that they lack the charming but not vulgar temperament.
Yang Chen carefully looked at more than 30 selfies sent by Liu Xueying and confirmed his idea of using her as a model for a humanoid robot.
Yang Chen put down his phone and accepted an order to pick up passengers.
Yang Chen arrived at the pick-up point. A man and a woman walked over unsteadily. It was obvious that they had drunk a lot. The woman was also holding a large Labrador.
Yang Chen quickly asked, “Hello, did you call a car?”
Girl: “Yes, we called the car.”
Yang Chen: “Is the dog coming too?”
Man: “Are you talking nonsense? Are we going back and abandoning it?”
Yang Chen: “Then I’m sorry, the dog can’t get in the car. I’ll cancel the order, you can find another way.”
The man immediately ran over and slammed on the car window and shouted, “Open it! Open it for me now!”
Yang Chen ignored him and drove away with a kick of the accelerator.
The man ran after him, but because he had drunk a lot, he fell after only a few steps, and blood immediately spurted out of his nose.
The woman quickly ran over to help the man up and said, “How are you? Oh no, your nose is bleeding. Wipe it quickly!”
The man struggled to get up and sat down by the side of the road.
He wiped his nosebleed and cursed, “I’m going to turn Hecheng upside down, and I must find him. Call Guan Lei, and immediately find this driver all over the city! I told them to drive over to pick us up, but you insisted on taking a ride-hailing car. Now what?”
Woman: “Why are you blaming me for this? I was thinking it wasn’t far, and we could get a ride-hailing car in a few minutes. It would take them more than an hour to drive over, I didn’t want to bother them.”
Man: “They are the dogs I raised. Don’t say it takes more than an hour to drive over, even if it takes ten hours, as long as I need them, they have to come and pick me up without complaint.”
The woman gasped speechlessly, looking very angry.
Man: “Call! Can’t you hear me?”
The woman angrily took out her phone and called Guan Lei, saying, “Guan Lei, Shi Hao is in trouble, come here quickly!”
At this time, Yang Chen had already picked up a new passenger.
The passenger was a petite girl dressed in Lolita fashion.
Yang Chen checked the last four digits of her phone number and destination with her, reminded her to fasten her seat belt, and set off.
At this time, the girl took out a large pair of scissors from her bag and deliberately waved them next to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen instinctively dodged to the side, and the car almost lost control.
He quickly pulled over, unfastened his seat belt, and got out of the car.
The passenger immediately said with a smirk, “Brother, don’t be afraid, I just want to remind you that I carry a weapon with me, I don’t want to hurt you.”
Yang Chen: “Ah? Why are you reminding me of this?”
Passenger: “The news has reported many incidents of girls having accidents when taking ride-hailing cars alone at night. It’s almost ten o’clock now, and I’m such a small girl traveling alone, of course I have to carry a self-defense weapon with me.”
Yang Chen returned to the car speechlessly and said with a smile, “Even if you meet such a perverted driver, he has to be able to notice you. The girls who are harmed are all beautiful and have good figures, who can see your little flat chest?”
The female driver looked down at her chest, and then pointed at Yang Chen and said, “You… you insult people! I’m going to kill you!”
The little Lolita waved the scissors next to Yang Chen a few times.
Yang Chen: “Hey, hey, pay attention to safety. If I can’t control the car, we’ll become doomed lovers.”
Little Lolita: “Who wants to be a lover with you, you wish. Don’t you think girls like me are cute? Everyone says I’m cute!”
Yang Chen: “People can’t always say you’re a little flat chest, right? What if you want to die?”
Little Lolita: “You are such an annoying driver. I’m just a little flat chest, so what? There are many people chasing me. You’re big, but do you have a girlfriend?”
Yang Chen: “I’d rather be single for the rest of my life than have a little flat chest like you.”
Little Lolita covered her chest and made an exaggerated expression, saying, “You… you are really vicious! Every sentence has to have a little flat chest, will you die if you don’t say little flat chest. My name is Shi Xiaoping, call me Miss Shi, or Xiaoping, understand?”
Yang Chen: “Haha… Your name is a perfect match for you, it seems that the person who named you was very visionary, small and flat.”
Little Lolita: “…”
Little Lolita took out her phone and said, “I’ll give you a chance now, as long as you praise me with a few nice words, I’ll give you a good review. Otherwise, I will definitely give you a bad review, which will lower your rating and make it difficult to get orders in the future.”
Yang Chen: “Oh, little flat chest knows a lot, and also knows that it’s not easy to get orders after lowering the rating. What do you want to hear, I’ll tell you.”
Little Lolita: “Just say wow, you are so beautiful, your figure is so good, you are the most charming woman in the world, everyone loves you, flowers bloom for you, and cars get flat tires when they see you…”
Yang Chen: “Stop, stop! I think you should give me a bad review, I can’t say so many lies against my conscience.”
Little Lolita: “You… you really want to piss me off. I’m the only child in my family. If you piss me off, my parents will have no children. Will you take care of them in their old age?”
It’s been a long time since I’ve had such a happy chat. When we were almost at the destination, Yang Chen said, “The most beautiful woman in the world, we have arrived. Please take your belongings and prepare to get off the car. I hope to see you again next time.”
Little Lolita immediately smiled happily and said, “Hmph! You’re sensible! But, it’s too late now, I’m still going to give you a bad review, so you’ll always remember me, the most beautiful woman!”
Yang Chen stopped the car and said, “Okay! Give it if you want. Be careful when you get off the car.”
Little Lolita snorted and said, “Or I’ll give you another chance to make amends. If you praise me seriously once now, I won’t give you a bad review.”
Yang Chen: “Little flat chest, it’s not that I don’t want to praise you, it’s just that I can’t see any part of you that is worth praising. Besides, I’m not the kind of person who can be coerced.”
Little Lolita: “You are a stinky driver, you still have to say I’m a little flat chest in the end. You’re done, I’m very angry, the consequences are very serious. You’re stuck with this bad review, even Jesus can’t change my decision! Hmph!”
Little Lolita angrily opened the car door and immediately gave Yang Chen a bad review.
“This driver is too annoying, giving passengers nicknames and making personal attacks. But I am a kind person, as long as he apologizes to me and praises me a few nice words, I can delete the bad review.”
Yang Chen was searching for nearby hotels on his phone when the system issued a reminder.
“Congratulations to the host for receiving a bad review. The system rewards the host with 20% equity in Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, which takes effect immediately. Relevant supporting materials will be delivered to the host tomorrow morning.”
