Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints
Chapter 429 - 206: This Is Just the Prelude—the Climax Comes Later (Part 3)
Who would have thought his son had such poor taste and found himself a female player, completely disgracing the Lin Family.
Lin Zhengtian made a decisive decision, telling his grandson to inform Lin Hongyi to stop getting tangled up with them. The longer it dragged on, the more the Lin Family would be embarrassed.
At this point, it would be wiser to openly accept these people and quickly hold the wedding, as long as they don’t register their marriage afterward.
If Xinyi is willing to have a child with Lin Hongyi without legal protection, then let her. Anyway, she shouldn’t think of obtaining anything from the Lin Family.
After understanding his father’s intention, Lin Hongyi immediately smiled and said, "Xinyi, since everyone is here to bless you, let’s accept their blessings. I’m in my forties and have two children, marrying a young and beautiful wife like you is quite a bargain. Overall, neither of us loses out. Alright, everyone, please return to your seats."
Chen Xinyi let out a sigh of relief, feeling she had survived this crisis.
Once married, she would use the Lin Family’s connections to slowly avenge these people.
Since the groom didn’t mind, the other onlookers had no choice but to return to their seats.
Lin Hongyi said to Qiu Tian, "Since you’re all here, why not sit down for a meal as well."
Qiu Tian thought that since Yang Chen was still here, he had to ensure his safety.
So, he called for a gift and squeezed a seat at a table with his people.
Yang Chen couldn’t help but chuckle to himself, "This has to continue, they sure are patient!"
Next to him, Zhao Feifei let out a small laugh, saying, "Do you think everyone is as petty as you? If you truly love someone, would you care about these things? It just means you don’t love enough; everything can be an excuse."
Yang Chen couldn’t help but complain, "Aren’t you all annoying? I’ve made it clear that I don’t want to talk to you, can’t you take a hint?"
Zhao Feifei: "Then why did you come over, knowing you’d run into me?"
Yang Chen: "I came to watch the show, why not? Isn’t this spectacle entertaining?"
Zhao Feifei: "Did you arrange for these people to come?"
Yang Chen: "Yeah! What about it? Is there a problem?"
Zhao Feifei: "You..."
Zhao Feifei immediately got up to find Chen Xinyi.
Yang Kang chuckled and said, "Brother, what do you do for a living? You seem pretty impressive."
Yang Chen: "I’m a ride-share driver. So what, do you suddenly feel a boost of confidence? It’s normal; idiots like you always first ask what I do for a living, and when they hear I’m a ride-share driver, they feel great about themselves."
Yang Chen saw right through these people, always waiting to see if anyone would ask about his assets so he could show off a bit.
Everyone always asked about his job, and the job was just a ride-share driver, right?
Yang Kang straightened his back, adjusted his tie, and laughed, "Just a ride-share driver, huh? I thought you were someone really important. What’s with the attitude?"
Yang Chen: "Can’t help it, I’m just born this way. Alright, stop talking to me, I don’t want to talk to you."
Yang Kang sneered and said, "I don’t even care to talk to a ride-share driver like you."
After a while, Lin Hongyi and Chen Xinyi came over angrily, while Zhao Feifei on the side had a gloating look.
Not far away, Qiu Tian wanted to step forward, but Yang Chen immediately gestured for him not to come over.
Lin Hongyi quietly gritted his teeth and said, "Did you bring those people here?"
Yang Chen: "Yeah. How about it? I said I wouldn’t come, but Chen Xinyi insisted I come, so I said I would definitely give her a big gift. How about it, is the gift satisfactory?"
Lin Hongyi: "Kid, you’re playing with fire!"
Chen Xinyi: "You have a grudge against me; you can retaliate against me. Why do you have to cause trouble in such an important occasion? I don’t care about losing face, but the Lin Family can’t lose face! What you’ve done is truly excessive!"
Lin Hongyi: "What do you do for a living?"
Oh, why does everyone ask that?
Why can’t they ask in a different way?
Wouldn’t it be better to ask about assets?
But, on second thought, it seems no one ever asks about assets; they usually ask about where you work or something.
Yang Chen said helplessly, "Ride-share driver."
Chen Xinyi intentionally didn’t remind Lin Hongyi that Yang Chen was also a minority shareholder in the Peninsula Hotel.
Because if she reminded him, Lin Hongyi wouldn’t dare to easily touch Yang Chen.
Now that Lin Hongyi thought Yang Chen was just a ride-share driver, he would certainly teach him a lesson.
"Even a measly ride-share driver dares to go against the Lin Family, you really are ignorant and overestimating yourself!" Lin Hongyi said.
Yang Chen: "So what? Are you going to get Bibi to freeze my account?"
Lin Hongyi: "What? You don’t think I have the ability? Freezing your account is just a phone call away."
Yang Kang: "Brother, why are you so arrogant for a ride-share driver? Don’t mention Mr. Lin, even I could use my connections to get your account frozen. Understand? Mr. Lin, don’t bother with him; lower-level people are just like this. I’m Yang Kang, Feifei’s boyfriend, let’s look out for each other from now on."
The money from selling a single piece of painting from the Lin Family would take the workers in Yang Kang’s family’s factory to earn by working tirelessly at sewing machines.
This lowly attitude was understandable in front of Lin Hongyi.
Lin Hongyi nodded, not even glancing at Yang Kang, who had warm feelings for a cold response.
杨辰:"Cut the bullshit! Try making a call to freeze my account? I bet even if your dad made that call, it wouldn’t work."
林弘毅:"Kid, you’re way too cocky! Damn it, if I don’t have your account frozen today, my last name will be spelled backward!"
After saying that, Lin Hongyi called the CEO of Bibi, Li Changqi.
Lin Hongyi: "President Li, there’s a driver named Yang Chen on your platform, help me have his account frozen. I’ll arrange everything from dinner to a full-service session afterward, my treat."
Li Changqi: "Haha... many thanks for your kind offer, President Lin, but Yang Chen’s account can’t be frozen, and I won’t be able to enjoy your full-service treatment anyway."
Lin Hongyi: "Why not?"
Li Changqi: "He’s a star driver on our platform and even the head of the driver’s union. If I freeze his account, he’ll just take the other drivers and join another platform, and wouldn’t Bibi suffer a massive loss? We would lose our leading position in Hai City. I can’t damage the company’s interests so severely for your offer; I could even get fired."
Lin Hongyi: "Got it! I understand!"
After that, he hung up the phone.
Yang Chen: "So what? Is my account frozen?"
Lin Hongyi: "Don’t think you can be arrogant just because you’re some head of a crappy union; I have plenty of ways to deal with you. I’ll go greet the guests first, and we’ll see each other soon!"
After saying so, Lin Hongyi took Chen Xinyi by the hand to the entrance to welcome the guests.
Yang Kang chuckled and said, "I see why you’re acting so high and mighty; turns out you’re a union head. But you probably don’t understand what the union’s position in our country is, it’s nothing. You don’t seriously think you can have the same power as union leaders in the United States or other countries, do you?"
Yang Chen said to Zhao Feifei, "This is the boyfriend you found? Your taste isn’t that great. He’s not only ugly, but also self-righteous. Seeing you guys makes me sick, don’t talk to me, okay? Once I’m done watching the show, I’ll leave, and you can keep chatting as much as you like."
Zhao Feifei: "What do you mean? Is there more to come?"
Yang Chen: "Of course, I didn’t come all this way to disappoint Chen Xinyi, did I? That was just the prelude; the climax is yet to come. If Chen Xinyi manages to complete this wedding, I’ll change my family name to ’Dog!’"
With so many big shots associated with Yang Chen, once Lin Hongyi learned about Yang Chen’s identity, it’s impossible that he’d go through with the wedding if he had any sense.
Chen Xinyi still wants to marry into the Lin Family and use their power to take revenge on Yang Chen; that’s simply daydreaming.
