Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints-Chapter 62 - 61: I’m Inviting You to Go Swimming

Yang Zhiqiang was a bit scared and nervous, and asked, "Mr. Yang is the second largest shareholder of the Peninsula Hotel Group, right?"

Yang Chen nodded and replied, "Yes! Didn’t I just say when Manager Cheng came over that guests should be treated well when they come to spend here? Doesn’t that mean I’m also an owner of the hotel?"

Oh dear, everyone wanted to give themselves a big slap.

How did we overlook such a small detail?

Xu Xiaowan hurriedly asked, "You’re a shareholder of the Baoqing Restaurant and also of the Peninsula Hotel. How much money do you actually have?"

"It’s all just on paper, this equity stuff. As long as it’s not liquidated, it’s just a statement. Manager Yang, am I right?" Yang Chen said with a smile.

Yang Zhiqiang quickly nodded and bowed, replying, "Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Yang is right. I’ll explain futures investment knowledge to you right now."

Yang Chen nodded and said, "Hmm, go ahead."

...

Originally, after this meal, Xu Xiaowan was going to go with them to the interview at Sky Curtain Investment.

But Yang Chen had already talked to Zhang Long earlier, so she didn’t even need the interview and could join directly.

Yang Chen took Xu Xiaowan to Sky Curtain Investment to handle the onboarding procedures.

Fang Huihui only took a leave for the morning and had to stay at the company in the afternoon.

Xu Xiaowan came out alone and wouldn’t start officially until tomorrow.

Xu Xiaowan asked with a smile, "Back in school, no one could tell your family was this well-off. Other classmates’ families ran businesses and couldn’t wait for everyone to know. Why is your family so rich, yet you live so frugally?"

"Sigh... don’t mention it. My girlfriend at the time was Zhao Feifei from the trade department. Her family wasn’t well-off, her father was bedridden, and her mother took care of him while doing odd jobs, plus she had a younger brother in junior high. I thought to myself, if I married her, I’d have to support her family. Frankly speaking, her family is a bottomless pit. If I didn’t save more money, how could I support her family in the future?" Yang Chen replied, feeling a tinge of bitterness in his heart again.

If it wasn’t for Zhao Feifei, or if he was with a girl from a normal family, Yang Chen could have lived quite lavishly.

But he considered their lifetime together, yet Zhao Feifei betrayed him for a wealthy old man.

Whenever he talked about it, Yang Chen felt uncomfortable.

Although it had nothing to do with Xu Xiaowan, she was almost moved to tears.

A responsible man like Yang Chen is truly rare in the world.

If it were other men, knowing Zhao Feifei’s family situation, they would have broken up before marriage.

What kind of family could withstand the burden of her family?

"So, you never told her how much money you actually had?" Xu Xiaowan asked.

Yang Chen shook his head and replied, "If I had told her, she wouldn’t have exposed her true nature. Speaking of which, I should at least be grateful that I didn’t actually marry someone who would betray me."

"Exactly, it’s good you think that way. She doesn’t know how to cherish what she had and isn’t worth remembering. There are plenty of good girls out there; if you search carefully, it’s not hard to find one." Xu Xiaowan said, somewhat meaningfully.

Yang Chen nodded with a smile and said, "Sigh... I’m not thinking about it for now. I’ll consider it after I adjust my mindset. So, where to now? Until 12, I’m at your command."

Xu Xiaowan quickly replied, "To thank you for helping me find a new job, I’ll treat you to dinner and a movie tonight."

"Haha... sure! So where are we going now?" Yang Chen replied.

"The weather is pretty hot, how about we go swimming at the Great Ocean World? You can take me home to get my swimsuit. How’s that?" Xu Xiaowan asked.

Yang Chen nodded with a smile and replied, "Sure! Until 12, you’re in charge."

Yang Chen took Xu Xiaowan home to get her swimsuit.

Since they were going swimming, Yang Chen also needed to bring his swimsuit.

He certainly couldn’t go in the water wearing a shirt and trousers, could he?

So he took Xu Xiaowan home to get his swimsuit as well.

When they arrived at the gate of Binjiang Villa, the guards saw Yang Chen’s car and quickly came out to greet him warmly.

"Welcome home, esteemed owner!"

Yang Chen smiled and nodded in response, driving straight in.

Xu Xiaowan was completely shocked. Yang Chen actually lived here?

This is the Binjiang Villa District, where even the cheapest villa costs a billion!

"Yang Chen, does your family live here?" Xu Xiaowan asked.

"Uh-huh, yes." Yang Chen replied with a smile.

"Right, since you have money to invest in Baoqing Restaurant and Peninsula Hotel, it’s understandable that you could afford a house here." Xu Xiaowan nodded.

What shocked her even more was when Yang Chen drove up the bridge leading to Villa No. 1 in the center of the lake.

"Does your family live in Villa No. 1?" Xu Xiaowan asked again.

"Uh-huh, yes." Yang Chen nodded with a smile.

"Oh my gosh, I heard this is the most expensive villa in the whole district, costing four or five billion!" Xu Xiaowan exclaimed.

"They are all just houses, expensive or not, it’s just a place to eat and sleep, nothing special." Yang Chen replied.

Yang Chen opened the electric gate and parked next to a Bugatti Veyron.

Xu Xiaowan’s mouth dropped open in amazement, and she asked, "Did you just buy this sports car? Bu... Bug... Bugatti, is this a Bugatti Veyron?"

Yang Chen got out of the car and replied with a smile, "Yes! It’s a Bugatti Veyron. I’m going in to get my swimsuit. Do you want to come in for a drink?"

Xu Xiaowan nodded and followed Yang Chen inside.

She felt like a child from the mountains entering the city and seeing skyscrapers for the first time, her eyes full of curiosity.

Mr. Yang living alone in a three-story luxury villa with a basement is just too lonely; it needs a lady of the house.

Mr. Yang told Xu Xiaowan to help herself to whatever she wanted to drink, while he went upstairs to look for swimwear.

It was Xu Xiaowan’s first time at such a large villa, and she appeared quite reserved.

She didn’t look for a drink and just waited downstairs for Mr. Yang to return.

Then, the two of them walked out of the villa together.

"Let’s take the sports car and go for a spin," Mr. Yang said.

In fact, Xu Xiaowan really wanted Mr. Yang to drive the sports car, but she was too reserved to say it.

Now that Mr. Yang suggested driving the sports car, she quickly nodded in agreement.

Mr. Yang came from a normal background, so he knew ordinary people were curious to experience what it’s like to drive a sports car.

He also understood that Xu Xiaowan was too pure and shy to ask.

So, he took the initiative to suggest driving the sports car to the Ocean World.

Who among the young doesn’t want to experience the thrill and excitement of sitting in a sports car?

Recently, Mr. Yang was rewarded with the [Magical Driver] skill by the system, making him feel at ease driving the sports car, no longer as nervous as before.

This skill made Xu Xiaowan find Mr. Yang even more charming as he drove.

The system explained that the longer Mr. Yang drove, the stronger his personal charisma would become, and with the added bonus of a Bugatti Veyron, any girl who saw him would be captivated.

At this moment, a Rolls-Royce was driving on the road.

A man in the passenger seat was instructing the woman in the driver’s seat on how to drive.

Man: "Drive steadily."

Woman: "Oh, I know, stop nagging. You’ve been droning on the whole way."

Man: "You just got your driver’s license, of course, I’m concerned."

Woman: "Got it! Oh, darling, there’s a sports car ahead. Should we slow down?"

The man took a closer look and burst into laughter: "It’s just a Porsche 918, a car worth over a million. It should yield to us! Just honk at him."

The woman did as told and honked the horn.

In front, the Porsche 918 did indeed make way.

"Wow, it actually moved aside! Hehe... How interesting. I had no idea your car was so awesome, it even has an automatic passage-clearing function," the woman said happily.

The man puffed his chest out in pride and said, "Of course, this is a Cullinan worth over 7 million after everything’s sorted out. Of course, it has to give way to us! It’s street etiquette; junk cars yield to good cars."

Just then, another Ferrari 488 came from behind, disregarding the honk.

The woman quickly asked, "Honey, what’s the car behind? It seems quite arrogant."

The man glanced back and responded, "A Ferrari 488, a car worth over 4 million. I’m not making way! Don’t worry about it, you just drive."

The woman nodded and said: "Okay! Honey, your car is fantastic! I used to see sports cars zooming past on the road, all haughty. Today, I finally get to teach one a lesson."

The man grew even more smug and said, "You’ll never have to fear them again. My car can outperform most sports cars. Only a very few compare in price, and we hardly ever see those. They’re usually kept at home, not driven for fear of wear and tear."

The road conditions weren’t great, so the Ferrari behind didn’t dare to overtake.

Only after passing the traffic lights did the Ferrari manage to turn and get away from the Cullinan.

"Ah, feels good. Holding back a sports car is even more satisfying than driving one. Hehe..." the woman teased confidently.

After a while, a roar was heard again from behind.

The woman didn’t even look and said, "There’s another sports car. I won’t let it pass either. It’ll have to trail us slowly like that Ferrari."

The man laughed heartily and instinctively glanced back at the sports car.

Then he realized something was off. As the sports car approached, he finally saw it was a Bugatti Veyron.

"Beep beep..."

The Bugatti Veyron honked.

There’s no reason for a supercar to crawl at 20 km/h behind a Cullinan.

The woman smugly said, "Nagging again? Keep up slowly. A lousy sports car wanting to overtake our Cullinan? How ridiculous!"

The man quickly replied, "You silly woman, move aside! That’s a Bugatti Veyron, a car worth 40 or 50 million, enough to buy six or seven of mine. If you’re driving this slowly and it tries to overtake, we could be on the hook for millions if it even gets scratched; insurance won’t cover it! Move to the right lane!"

The mention of the car behind being worth 40 or 50 million made the woman panic.

She had only recently gotten her driver’s license, and in her panic, she accidentally hit the accelerator, plowing into the greenery.

The Bugatti Veyron roared past.

Xu Xiaowan, in the passenger seat, asked, "What happened to that car just now? Did you scare the driver by honking?" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"No idea. Probably not, right? If they’re that timid, they shouldn’t be on the road," Mr. Yang replied with a laugh.

Poor Cullinan owner intended to woo a girl but now had to call the dealership to repair the car.

Man: "I knew you weren’t capable, but you insisted on driving!"

Woman: "Didn’t you say such sports cars are just kept at home and never driven to avoid wear and tear?"

The man looked at the Bugatti Veyron disappearing into the distance, thinking: "Who on earth takes such a car out to impress girls? Do they even know how to live?"
