Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints-Chapter 78 - 76: Doesn’t That Mean She Thinks I’m a Simp?
Li Xiaofei scrolled through Xun Wukong’s Xun’s social media moments for a while and concluded that this girl was definitely a manipulative "green tea" girl.
Yang Chen immediately laughed and asked, "You can tell she’s a ’green tea’ girl just from her selfies? What’s the scientific basis for that?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
"Look at her selfies, always highlighting some designer bags and famous locations, and her captions have a sort of harmless vibe. Brother, trust me, she’s totally a manipulative ’green tea’ girl. If I’m wrong, I’ll be a little dog." Li Xiaofei said confidently.
Chen Yuyan couldn’t take it anymore from the kitchen. She came out with a spatula, pointed at Li Xiaofei, and said, "Li Xiaofei, if you want to die, just say it, and I can do it myself."
"I’ve only been home a few days, and you’re already annoyed with me. Brother, I’ll go to Hai City with you later. I don’t want to stay at home anymore. And I’ve decided, I’ll apply to Finance University where you studied. Xiaoyanzi, you’ll regret what you did today! When I leave, I won’t come back. Just don’t try to find me!" Li Xiaofei retorted.
"Oh, you really want to go to heaven, huh? Can you even call her Xiaoyanzi? Just wait for me to finish cooking, and I’ll deal with you! You’re not escaping this, I’m telling you now." Chen Yuyan said angrily and rushed back to cook.
Li Xiaofei’s father died early, and it’s just been the mother and daughter relying on each other for the past ten-plus years.
When Li Xiaofei was staying at school, Chen Yuyan missed her terribly.
But as soon as it was holiday time, after a few days at home, the mother and daughter didn’t get along.
Chen Yuyan found her daughter to be annoying, always thinking she had too many flaws.
Like loving to sleep late, not making her bed, not washing clothes, etc.
Not long after the college entrance exam, the mother and daughter were already quarreling eight times a day.
This might be a common issue for many parents. When their child is boarding, they miss them so much they’d love to see them studying at night.
Once the child is home on holiday, within a week, they could quarrel eight times a day.
Li Xiaofei hurriedly grabbed Yang Chen’s hand and pleaded, "Brother Chen, later, can you talk to my mom and take me to Hai City to play?"
"Let’s talk about it after you’ve filled out your college application. If I take you now, and then in a few days when the school wants you to fill out your application or if a classmate has a goodbye party, you’ll have to go back and forth." Yang Chen said.
Li Xiaofei pouted and nodded, then turned the conversation back to Xun Wukong’s Xun.
But as soon as she started, Chen Yuyan shouted from the kitchen, "Li Xiaofei, keep your mouth shut! You haven’t even met her, why are you badmouthing her? Chenzi, don’t listen to her nonsense, make sure you ask that girl out for dinner tonight. Got it? If you don’t ask her out, your aunt will be angry. If your aunt doesn’t help you out, who will?"
Yang Chen had no uncles or aunts, only his aunt and cousin left.
His aunt indeed had his best interest in mind.
Yang Chen quickly replied, "Okay! I’ll definitely ask her out for dinner tonight. But you said she’s a streamer, can I really ask her out?"
Chen Yuyan quickly replied, "Don’t worry, I talked to her mom. As long as you ask her, she’ll definitely come out."
Without waiting for Yang Chen to reply, Li Xiaofei quickly took his phone and said with a smile, "Brother, I’ll help you ask her out. I’m a girl, I know how to ask girls out."
Chen Yuyan quickly reminded, "Li Xiaofei, if you mess this up, I’ll smash your skull with a spatula to see if it’s full of crap."
"Got it! You’re cooking, can you not say such gross things? Won’t people still want to eat later?" Li Xiaofei retorted.
Then, Li Xiaofei quickly started chatting with Xun Wukong’s Xun.
But after Xun Wukong’s Xun introduced herself as Sun Xiaoxun, she went silent.
Li Xiaofei sent a long string of messages, only to receive brief, perfunctory replies like "oh" and "hehe."
Yang Chen laughed out loud and said, "Didn’t you say you know girls well? She’s treating you like a lackey, brushing you off."
Li Xiaofei suddenly smirked mischievously and said, "But... Brother, isn’t this your WeChat? Hehe..."
Yang Chen’s smile immediately froze. Damn, wouldn’t Sun Xiaoxun think of him as a lackey?
Seeing Yang Chen’s expression change, Li Xiaofei sheepishly returned the phone to him and then puffed up her chest and confidently said, "You can tell from the chat that she’s definitely a manipulative ’green tea’ girl. Because, normally, if both parents have arranged a blind date, she would either disagree or formally get to know each other openly. Right? But she clearly has an attitude of neither actively seeking nor refusing, isn’t that a manipulative ’green tea’ girl? Brother, be careful when you have dinner with her tonight. Got it?"
Just then, Chen Yuyan brought out the dishes, her eyes fixed on Li Xiaofei.
Li Xiaofei snorted arrogantly and then turned her head away.
Soon, Aunt had made a large table of dishes, with two big bowls of the sweet and sour ribs and braised lion’s head that Yang Chen specifically requested.
Aunt said to eat one bowl first, and the other bowl would be packed for Yang Chen to take home and keep in the fridge until tomorrow. It might not taste as good then, but it shouldn’t be too bad.
Since losing his parents, Yang Chen cherished his relationship with his aunt and cousin dearly.
For now, they were the last family he had in the world.
So, seeing how kind his aunt was to him, Yang Chen was touched, tears welling up in his eyes.
He was initially able to control his emotions, but then his aunt mentioned his mom, and he couldn’t hold back his emotions anymore and started crying, covering his eyes.
When Yang Chen cried, Chen Yuyan also started crying, and soon Li Xiaofei joined in.
Li Xiaofei also lost her dad when she was in her teens. Just after Yang Chen’s parents passed away, her dad, Li Chenghe, drowned after getting drunk.
At the time, Li Chenghe was the manager of the purchasing department at Yang Chen’s family’s company.
After Yang Chen’s parents died, Li Chenghe was supposed to temporarily manage the company for Yang Chen.
Unfortunately, within less than a month, Li Chenghe got drunk and drowned.
Once Li Chenghe died, a bunch of creditors came seeking debts, and that’s how Yang Chen’s family’s company went bankrupt and was liquidated.
What should’ve been a joyful reunion turned into a crying session.
Chen Yuyan and her daughter relied on each other, with no men in the house.
Even things like clogged drains, they couldn’t handle well.
So every time Yang Chen visited, he would help them solve some problems.
It took Yang Chen over ten minutes to unclog the kitchen drain.
Half an hour to fix the bathroom drainage.
By the time he was done tidying up, it was already past three.
Since he still had plans to meet Sun Xiaoxun for dinner, Yang Chen quickly drove back to Hai City.
By the time he returned to Hai City, it was almost six o’clock.
At this point, going home and coming back out would be too much hassle.
So, he called Sun Xiaoxun, asking if they could meet now.
Yang Chen had no interest in Sun Xiaoxun, and judging by her responses, she probably wasn’t interested in him either.
The two of them were just trying to placate the elders, brushing things off, so neither needed to feel awkward.
Sun Xiaoxun agreed to meet but chose Bvlgari Hotel as the location.
To be honest, meeting at such an upscale place for the first time felt a bit much.
If an average person went on a date with her, they’d have to spend tens of thousands on a meal, it would be painful.
But Yang Chen mainly wanted to give his aunt an explanation, so Bvlgari it was.
They agreed to meet at 7 PM at the Bvlgari Hotel.
Yang Chen went straight to the Bvlgari Hotel, got a table, and waited for Sun Xiaoxun to arrive.
