Chapter 87: Unfamiliarity
"Driver, don't take his money. I should pay for it! Really, I can afford it myself."
Zhu Jingchen remained calm, a faint smile on his face. He said to the driver who was waiting to pay, "Please take my fee, not hers. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation."
The master is an old man who always has a kind smile on his face.
At this moment, he listened to the two people's back and forth refusing each other and couldn't help laughing, "Little girls, you two are really polite!"
After saying that, he took the money Zhu Jingchen handed to him and nodded in agreement.
"Since everyone is so sensible and polite, I will do as this young man wishes."
He added with a smile.
After getting off the car, the night wind blew over and the three of them stood on the side of the road to tidy up their clothes.
At this time, Shen Yan looked at the young man in front of her who was only a few years older than her, with a bit of gratitude and a bit of embarrassment in her eyes.
She whispered to Zhu Jingchen, "Brother Wei Qing... I feel really embarrassed for making you spend so much money and even sending us off specially."
Hearing this, Zhu Jingchen waved his hand, his usual calm and gentle smile still on his lips, "It's okay, I have to go back to my place anyway, I just happened to give you a ride on the way."
But the light-hearted words he said had a different meaning in Shen Yan's heart.
She knows it so well!
Zhu Jingchen's workplace is not here, so how could he possibly go all the way back here on a weekday?
And most importantly - he has already spent a lot of time and money on their affairs.
Even so, he would repeatedly use the excuse of "it just happened to be on the way" to comfort them and ease their inner burden.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but frowned, looking at him seriously and said, "Brother Wei Qing, we understand what you said. But...if people are too kind, sometimes they will suffer losses."
Faced with such consolation, Zhu Jingchen just smiled and didn't take it too seriously. "How can I suffer such a big loss?"
Then he added, half-jokingly, "Besides, compared to the 0.6 percentage point share I got from you guys for that cleaning product project, today's fare is really nothing."
"If you're talking about who's at a disadvantage," his eyes softened, and his voice lowered, "it's me who's actually taking advantage. So I should be the one feeling bad."
After hearing this, Shen Yan fell into a complex emotion.
She knew she couldn't convince this stubborn yet kind man.
In that case, let him be.
Okay...
Since he is willing to be the "sucker", it doesn't matter if he suffers a little loss!
snort!
So she didn't say anything extra and turned to look at Qin Che who had been waiting for a long time not far away.
"Let's go."
So, she, Zhu Jingchen and Qin Che took another step and headed towards the stall that was about to be set up.
The night wind gently blew on their cheeks, leaving behind figures that were gradually moving away under the dim street lights.
Unexpectedly, Qin Che actually owns a car!
Oh my God, this is not an ordinary car, but a sedan worth more than 100,000 yuan!
In the current economic environment, hundreds of thousands of yuan is not a small amount of money. It is enough to buy more than three small-sized houses in Shanghai.
But Qin Che drove it on the road openly!
This was the first time in Shen Yan's life that she had actually seen someone who owned his own private car.
It’s not that I haven’t seen cars before, but they were all government cars or the occasional taxi passing by on the street.
And now, this private car parked right in front of her actually belongs to Qin Che.
No wonder he was able to secure the stall location so easily!
With such a car, work efficiency is of course much higher.
Soon, the car stopped steadily at the side of a very busy road.
After Shen Yan and Song Xiaomei got off the car together, they immediately took the original owner to the stall they were going to take over.
This is a Feng Shui treasure land - a favorable position in the middle of the intersection, with a constant flow of people coming and going. Almost everyone who passes by here will cast a few glances or even stop.
This location is perfect for doing business!
At this moment, standing in front of this stall, Shen Yan had already sketched out a picture in her mind: when the two of them were standing there shouting and selling, they were surrounded by a crowd of curious people who stopped to choose the goods, and each of them looked very excited.
It is only 6:30 in the evening, but many citizens have already come out to stroll and shop, and the flow of people is very dense.
“That’s awesome too!”
She couldn't help but sigh, "Uncle Qin, thank you so much!"
Qin Che smiled faintly and shook his head, saying, "Don't thank me. If you really want to thank someone, you should thank Uncle Zhu."
"If he hadn't asked me to help with this matter, I wouldn't have taken on this trouble."
Zhu Jingchen has a very good relationship with the Qin family. In the eyes of Qin Che's parents, they cherish Zhu Jingchen as if he were their own flesh and blood.
As a son who was away from home all year round, his status was not even as respected as Zhu Jingchen's.
Moreover, when Qin Che was away from his hometown for a long time, Zhu Jingchen often took care of his parents' daily life for him, which made Qin Che grateful from the bottom of his heart.
Zhu Jingchen is a down-to-earth person who has always been low-key and doesn't ask for anything easily. He won't bother others to do him a favor.
Therefore, there must be a reason for his request this time, and it might be a very crucial matter for him.
For Qin Che, it was not a difficult task to investigate where there were vacant stalls and then get this stall done at the same time.
So he extended a helping hand without hesitation and completed this seemingly simple yet crucial task for Zhu Jingchen.
Chen Yan was very happy, the corners of her eyes curved into a gentle arc, and her face was filled with unconcealable joy.
She quickly bowed to Zhu Jingchen, clasping her hands tightly in front of her chest, and said sincerely, "Brother Wei Qing, thank you so much! If it weren't for your help, I don't know what I would do."
After hearing this, Zhu Jingchen instinctively wanted to wave his hand to signal her not to be so polite, and a habitual smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
But just as he raised his hand, his eyes swept across the girl's sincere and grateful face, his heart paused slightly, and he quietly put his hand down.
He nodded gently, and said in a gentle tone with a hint of tacit approval: "Well...Okay, then I accept your gratitude."
Now that you have accepted the thanks, there is no need to think about other ways to repay it.
For Zhu Jingchen, this approach is just right.
It neither complicates the friendship between the two nor makes it seem too distant.
