How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 638

Actually, if ethical, moral, and legal constraints weren’t a consideration, humans would have been able to customize their “children” long ago.

Ten years ago, a team of gene research experts in Dragon Country [China] created two children, and the news caused a huge uproar. In the end, no one knew how to handle the situation.

Because once “gene customization” is allowed, the children of the wealthy will have advantages, while the children of ordinary people will still follow the laws of nature. This is very unfair and could easily cause significant social issues.

However, Yang Chen’s idea doesn’t involve gene editing or other such services, just normal reproduction.

Yang Chen returned to his hotel room, took a shower, and went to sleep. The next day, he planned to visit the park before returning to the capital.

…

Before nine o’clock, Yang Chen arrived at Luogang Park.

The traffic was terrible, and the cars were completely stuck.

Soon, Cao Ruoxue called Yang Chen.

Cao Ruoxue: “Mr. Yang, where are you? I just arrived and I’m waiting for you at the entrance.”

Yang Chen: “There are too many cars, I really can’t get through. Don’t wait for me, just go in and enjoy yourself.”

Cao Ruoxue: “There are too many people, I won’t be able to find you later. Where are you? I’ll come find you now.”

Yang Chen: “I’ll send you a location; I don’t know exactly where I am.”

Yang Chen sent Cao Ruoxue his location, and she found him.

Cao Ruoxue got into the car and said with a smile, “There are so many people today; it’s impossible to get through in half an hour.”

Yang Chen: “I should have parked at the mall entrance and walked over.”

At that moment, someone shouted from a nearby car: “The cars in front, move to the sides and let us pass!”

Yang Chen looked back and saw a Rolls-Royce Ghost. He knew that the number of people in He City who could afford this kind of car could be counted on one hand, so it must belong to someone extremely wealthy.

Other car owners saw the Ghost’s logo and license plate and quickly gave way, creating space for it to squeeze through.

At this time, Yang Chen’s car seemed very out of place. All the other cars were giving way, but his car didn’t move. However, he didn’t plan to give way. He would change lanes and cut in when there was space in front.

Yang Chen’s actions stunned the other car owners who had yielded to the Rolls-Royce.

“Damn! This ride-hailing driver is really something!”

“Haha… This is going to be interesting. The Didi [Chinese ride-hailing app] driver actually dares to cut off the chairman of Dabai Group. He’s asking for trouble.”

“The Didi driver from Hai City probably doesn’t recognize Mr. Shen’s license plate number.”

“It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t recognize the license plate number; can’t he recognize the car logo?”

“Can a ride-hailing driver recognize such an expensive car?”

“Haha…”

…

Dabai Group is a local mid-to-high-end chain mall in He City. It uses He City as its base and expands its scale to other cities in Wan Province. Chairman Shen Liancheng is a prominent figure in He City and even the entire province.

Today is the park’s opening, and the He City government invited many entrepreneurs from the province to participate in the opening ceremony. Mr. Shen was naturally on the invitation list.

Cao Ruoxue recognized Shen Liancheng’s license plate number and said, “Mr. Yang, the car behind us is Shen Liancheng’s, the chairman of Dabai Group. My dad said he’s a very high-profile and image-conscious person, and he usually pays special attention to his appearance when he travels. Other car owners are giving way to him.

You’re cutting him off like this; he definitely won’t let it go.”

Yang Chen: “Is that so? Dabai Group runs a chain of malls, right?”

Cao Ruoxue: “Yes! Mid-to-high-end malls, with a significant presence in He City and even the entire Wan Province.”

Yang Chen: “What status does a mall owner have in front of me? Besides, I’m driving legally; he can’t do anything about it.”

As they were talking, two bodyguards came to Yang Chen’s car and knocked on the window aggressively.

Yang Chen opened the car window, and the bodyguard immediately said unpleasantly: “Are you blind? Everyone else is giving way to Chairman Shen; how dare you cut him off? Do you think you’re very clever, daring to drive where others don’t?”

The car owners next to them laughed.

“Hey, buddy, the car behind you is Shen Liancheng, the chairman of Dabai Group. If you don’t recognize the license plate, don’t you even recognize the car logo? How dare a ride-hailing driver like you cut off a Rolls-Royce?”

“You have to be smarter when driving. When you encounter a luxury car, you must avoid it. It’s not just that you can’t afford to offend the luxury car owner, you can’t even afford to pay for a scratch!”

“It’s normal for someone from Hai City not to recognize Mr. Shen’s car. Hurry up and back up now. Although there are many people now and Mr. Shen won’t say anything, his subordinates might come looking for you later. Haha…”

…

Yang Chen naturally wasn’t afraid of Shen Liancheng and directly said to Shen Liancheng’s bodyguard: “I’m driving normally; if there’s a problem, call the traffic police.”

Shen Liancheng’s bodyguard was immediately unhappy and said, “Hey! Are you deliberately causing trouble? The car behind you is Shen Liancheng’s car, the chairman of Dabai Group. Do you understand what that means?”

Yang Chen shook his head and said, “I don’t understand! I only know that I’m driving legally, and who’s car is behind me has nothing to do with me.”

Bodyguard: “Hey! You’re asking for a beating, aren’t you? Get out of the car, get out!”

Yang Chen’s bodyguards, who were following in a separate vehicle, came over and happened to hear Shen Liancheng’s bodyguards scolding Yang Chen. They immediately stepped forward and physically removed the two sycophants.

Shen Liancheng’s bodyguards were too weak and didn’t even have the ability to fight back.

Shen Liancheng’s driver quickly said, “Mr. Shen, the bodyguards were beaten.”

Shen Liancheng looked confused and quickly tilted his head to look forward.

“Damn it, is there anyone in He City who dares not to give me, Shen Liancheng, face?” Shen Liancheng said angrily.

Driver: “It’s not a local license plate; it’s a Hai A car, and it’s a ride-hailing car. But, it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with him. Someone else couldn’t stand Zhang Long and the others being too arrogant, so they intervened.”

Shen Liancheng: “…”

Shen Liancheng’s bodyguards ran back in embarrassment.

“Mr. Shen, we were beaten.”

“That ride-hailing driver is shameless and just doesn’t want to give way.”

Shen Liancheng: “Damn it, it’s okay not to give way, but you can’t let them beat you. Call the security guards in charge of park order and have that ride-hailing car towed away and teach the driver a lesson.”

The bodyguards nodded and quickly went to find the Xingchen Defense staff in charge of today’s security work.

Soon, a dozen security personnel from Xingchen Defense’s He City branch came over.

“It’s them, take them away and teach them a lesson!”

“Damn it, they hit too hard; I almost got killed.”

As soon as the dozen or so security personnel approached, Yang Chen’s bodyguards showed their work permits.

The bodyguards responsible for protecting Yang Chen’s safety have special work permits. In addition to the Xingchen Defense logo and steel seal, there is also a “Special” character. All Xingchen Defense Group security personnel know this designation.

The security personnel turned around and beat up Shen Liancheng’s two bodyguards, and then pulled them to the sidewalk to stand properly.

“What are you doing? Why are you hitting us? We asked you to deal with them!”

“We are Mr. Shen’s bodyguards; don’t you want to work here anymore!”

The security personnel didn’t bother to talk to them. As soon as they dared to speak, they would get hit on the head, and soon the two of them obediently shut up.

Shen Liancheng couldn’t stand it anymore and immediately said to the driver, “Go down and see what’s going on! Damn it, why are they even hitting my people!”

The driver nodded and quickly got out of the car and ran to the sidewalk to ask what was going on.

“Brothers, what’s going on? They are Shen Liancheng’s bodyguards; why are you hitting them?” the driver asked.

At this time, Yang Chen’s bodyguard gestured to the other bodyguards to slap the driver.

“Slap!”

Shen Liancheng’s driver was slapped in the face.

“You… why did you hit me? I’m Mr. Shen’s driver!” the driver said with a look of grievance and anger.

The Xingchen Defense security personnel didn’t talk to him; they grabbed him and made him squat with Shen Liancheng’s bodyguards.

The surrounding drivers and passers-by were completely stunned. These security personnel must be crazy. How dare they treat Shen Liancheng’s bodyguards and driver like this?

Shen Liancheng was mortified. His bodyguards and driver were detained, and now he was the only one left sitting awkwardly in the car. It would be too embarrassing to get out of the car, but it would be even more awkward not to.

At this time, Deputy Mayor Chen and others walked over.

A smug smile appeared on the corner of Shen Liancheng’s mouth, thinking: “Now you know my status, right? Damn it, these security guards really need to be taught a lesson!”

Chen Feng and others went to chat with Yang Chen, and Shen Liancheng smiled confidently again. He felt that Chen Feng and others were persuading Yang Chen to give way to him.

At this time, two traffic police officers ran over and started manually directing traffic on the left and right sides of Yang Chen’s car.

Shen Liancheng felt that Chen Feng had given him enough face and finally had the courage to get out of the car.

Shen Liancheng walked over to greet Chen Feng and others, and then said, “These security personnel are too ignorant; they even beat my bodyguards and driver.”

Yang Chen immediately said, “You think you’re so important just because you drive a Ghost, scaring other car owners into giving way to you. What a sense of entitlement!”

Shen Liancheng: “You still dare to talk! If you hadn’t cut me off, I would have been inside the park already.”

Chen Feng: “Mr. Shen, is there some misunderstanding? Let me introduce…”

Shen Liancheng immediately interrupted: “There is no misunderstanding! Other car owners were very friendly and gave way, but this ride-hailing driver from out of town has no manners at all!”

Yang Chen: “I’m driving legally; why should I have manners? Even if I give way to important people, you don’t qualify as an important person in front of me. You need to improve yourself. You’re not worthy of passing my car!”

Shen Liancheng was furious. A ride-hailing driver dared to humiliate him.

Shen Liancheng angrily slapped the roof of the car. He didn’t expect Yang Chen’s car to be modified, and the roof was so hard that it almost made him scream in pain.

“Who do you think you are? I’m not worthy of passing your car? My name is Shen Liancheng. If you’re so ignorant, go online and see who I am! Let me pass!” Shen Liancheng said angrily.

Chen Feng said with a smile: “Mr. Shen, don’t get excited; let me finish speaking, okay?”

Shen Liancheng: “Okay!”

Chen Feng: “Let me introduce you; this is Mr. Yang from the Xingchen Group.”

Shen Liancheng: “…”

Shen Liancheng’s face changed drastically in an instant. He swallowed and said, “Deputy Mayor Chen, you’re not kidding me, are you? He’s Mr. Yang from the Xingchen Group?”

Chen Feng: “Would I joke about something like this? He is really Mr. Yang from the Xingchen Group. Mr. Yang was invited by our municipal government to visit Luogang Park. Mr. Shen, please be understanding and don’t compete with Mr. Yang for the right of way, okay?”

Shen Liancheng immediately smiled obsequiously, stretched out his hands to shake hands with Yang Chen, but Yang Chen ignored him.

Shen Liancheng didn’t care about the embarrassment and quickly said with a smile: “Mr. Yang, I’m very sorry; I didn’t know it was you. I apologize for my behavior just now, and I hope Mr. Yang will forgive me. Your time is precious; please go first.”

Yang Chen: “Mr. Shen isn’t in a hurry to get on with his day?”

Shen Liancheng: “Haha… Mr. Yang is joking; I’m not in a hurry at all. Please go first.”

Yang Chen smiled and signaled the security personnel to clear the way and escort him into the park.

The drivers who were watching the show earlier were completely stunned. What does it mean to have security escort a ride-hailing car?

“Damn! I’m not seeing things, am I? So many security guards are escorting a ride-hailing car?”

“Is the woman in the car very powerful?”

“Don’t be ridiculous; what kind of powerful person would take a ride-hailing car?”

“That’s right! So what’s going on? Why are these security guards clearing the way for a ride-hailing car?”

“We were laughing at him for being ignorant just now, but it seems that he’s not ignorant; he has someone to rely on. Shen Liancheng doesn’t even get a security escort, but this guy does.”

…

Shen Liancheng’s bodyguards and driver ran back covering their faces.

Driver: “Mr. Shen, you have to stand up for us.”

The two bodyguards also pleaded with Shen Liancheng to avenge them with mournful faces.

Shen Liancheng said angrily: “Stand up for you? I’ll stand up for you, then who will stand up for me? Do you know who he is? And you want me to stand up for you!”

Driver: “Who is he?”

Shen Liancheng: “He is Mr. Yang from the Xingchen Group!”

“Ah?” The driver and bodyguards sighed in unison.

Driver: “No wonder he dared to cut off Mr. Shen’s path!”

Bodyguard 1: “No wonder someone beat us; it turns out those were his bodyguards!”

Bodyguard 2: “No wonder the security personnel turned around and beat us; it turns out they are all Mr. Yang’s people.”

Shen Liancheng: “Stop talking nonsense; let’s go! I’ve had a glorious life for the most part, and I’ve completely lost face today.”

Driver: “Mr. Shen, don’t say that; he is Mr. Yang from the Xingchen Group. It’s understandable that you couldn’t pass his car; no one will think you’ve lost face.”

Shen Liancheng kicked the driver and cursed, “Thanks for reminding me! Get in the car; let’s go home!”

Driver: “Aren’t we going to go in and take a look?”

Shen Liancheng: “Look at what? I’m not interested in looking!”

…

Yang Chen finally found a parking space and parked the car. He said with a smile, “That was really difficult!”

Cao Ruoxue: “You should have come as a guest; that way, you wouldn’t have been stuck in traffic.”

Yang Chen: “I’m not comfortable in that kind of setting; I’d rather come as an ordinary person and take a look.”

At this time, Chen Feng walked over.

Chen Feng: “Mr. Yang, are you sure you don’t want to say a few words at the opening ceremony?”

Yang Chen: “Haha… I’m sure I’m not going; I have social anxiety. I can’t stand so many people watching. Go ahead and do your work; don’t worry about me. Miss Cao and I will just walk around. Please convey my best wishes and greetings to Mayor Luo.”

Chen Feng: “Okay! Then I won’t force you, Mr. Yang. I wish you and Miss Cao a pleasant time. Goodbye.”

Yang Chen and Cao Ruoxue nodded and waved goodbye to Chen Feng.

Yang Chen and Cao Ruoxue got out of the car and followed the crowd towards the park.

“Wow, it’s so big!” Yang Chen exclaimed.

As far as the eye could see, there were people everywhere.

Cao Ruoxue: “This is the largest urban park in the world, covering an area of 15 square kilometers. The area we are standing on now was previously a backup runway for airplanes, so it is particularly long. This place is actually transformed from the previous Luogang Airport.”

At this time, a sightseeing helicopter flew over their heads.

Cao Ruoxue: “I heard people say that it only takes five minutes to fly around in a circle. If you rely on walking, you won’t be able to see everything in a day. There are also many urban and national theme parks inside. You can’t experience the different styles of these theme parks by plane.”

Yang Chen: “You’re making me tempted; I have to visit the entire park today.”

Just as the two were about to leave, someone called Cao Ruoxue’s name.

“Cao Ruoxue, what a coincidence! You’re here too!”

Cao Ruoxue looked over in the direction of the voice. It was Li Xinyue, the older sister of her next-door neighbor from high school.

Cao Ruoxue: “Sister Xinyue, what a coincidence! Long time no see; you look even more beautiful.”

Li Xinyue: “No way; my foundation isn’t good. No matter how much I change, I can’t be as beautiful as you.”

Li Xinyue was being insincere. She had just had cosmetic surgery not long ago, and now she thought she was more beautiful than Cao Ruoxue.

Cao Ruoxue: “Sister Xinyue is still as good at flattering me as before. Is this your boyfriend?”

Li Xinyue immediately took her boyfriend’s arm and said, “Yes, he is my boyfriend, Lin Chaoyang. Chaoyang, this is the little sister who lived across from my house in high school that I mentioned to you before. Isn’t she very beautiful?”

Lin Chaoyang: “She is very beautiful. Hello, Miss Cao; nice to meet you.”

Cao Ruoxue: “Hello, Mr. Lin; nice to meet you.”

Li Xinyue looked Yang Chen up and down and said, “Ruoxue, who is this? Aren’t you going to introduce him?”
