Chapter 547 Creating Opportunities
Zhou Yufan's suppressed vomiting sound could be heard from the back seat, as if he wanted to vomit out all his internal organs. The smell of alcohol poured out through the half-open car window, choking Wen Yang so much that she unconsciously turned her head to recognize his face.
The taxi driver was a middle-aged man in his forties. At this moment, his face, which had been roughened by life, turned purple with anger.
He stood beside the car, looking at the mess in the back seat, glaring at Wen Yang with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire: "Little girl, look at yourself! I just changed the seat covers!"
He pointed at the car, his tone full of accusation, "This stuff smells really bad, it won't wash off! Five hundred dollars is a bargain for you, if it were someone else, I'd charge them at least a thousand!"
Wen Yang took a deep breath and suppressed the irritation in his heart.
She knew that it was wrong for Zhou Yufan to vomit on people and cars, but the driver's exorbitant asking price was too much.
She walked to the backseat window and looked at the filth in the dim light of the street lamp.
The vomit splattered on the white cotton seat, creating a disgusting mess, and the smell of alcohol in the air was truly unpleasant.
"Master, I know it's wrong to dirty your car. We will definitely compensate you."
Wen Yang tried to sound calm, "But five hundred yuan is really too much. Look, it's just some vomit. It would only cost a hundred yuan at the car wash to clean it. Even if it's a new car seat cover, replacing it wouldn't cost five hundred yuan."
"What do you know!"
The driver stiffened his neck and retorted, spit flying as he spoke. "This is my commercial vehicle. You delayed my business for an entire night, and this amount of money isn't even enough to compensate me for my lost wages! I won't pay you even a penny less today, or you can't leave!"
As he spoke, he deliberately put his hand in front of Wen Yang, as if he would not give up until he got the money.
Wen Yang was so angry that his face turned pale.
She looked down at Zhou Yufan who was slumped in the back seat. His brows were furrowed and he was humming something intermittently. He was probably too drunk and had no idea what was happening outside.
Wen Yang felt helpless. The senior usually looked quite steady, so why did he become like this after drinking too much?
"Master, can you please be reasonable?"
Wen Yang patiently continued to argue with the driver, "We didn't do this on purpose. You're asking for such an exorbitant price, it's pure extortion!"
"Blackmail? I blackmail you?"
The driver's voice rose another octave, as if he had just heard a ridiculous joke. "You guys stained my car and affected my business. How can asking for a little cleaning fee be considered extortion? I'm telling you, you have to pay me today, whether you want to or not! Otherwise, I'm calling the police and letting them sort things out!"
Wen Yang was so choked by his unreasonable words that he was speechless.
She took out her cell phone and saw that the battery was running low, which made her even more upset.
She originally wanted to call the police, but then she thought that calling the police would definitely waste a lot of time, and Zhou Yufan was in such a state that he really couldn't stand it.
Moreover, she had to find a way to contact Fang Li as soon as possible. She didn't know how Fang Li was doing now.
Just when Wen Yang was in a dilemma, a low engine sound came from far away.
A black nanny car slowly stopped next to the taxi, and the window slowly lowered, revealing a handsome face.
It’s Jingsen.
Although there are not many people on the streets of Kuncheng at night, there is no guarantee that someone will see you.
Therefore, when the window opened, Jingsen was already wearing a mask. The black mask covered most of his face, leaving only a pair of deep eyes exposed.
He calmly scanned the chaotic scene before him.
Then, the electric door opened.
Jingsen got out of the car, wearing a simple black T-shirt and jeans, but he still couldn't hide his star aura.
He walked up to Wen Yang, his voice soft and gentle, "Wen Yang, what happened?"
Wen Yang saw Jingsen and felt like he had found a savior. He quickly recounted what had happened, his tone full of grievance and helplessness: "Brother Jingsen, look at the situation. It's not that I don't want to pay the 500 yuan cleaning fee, but the main thing is that the driver doesn't want to take us anymore. What are we going to do after he takes the money and leaves us here?"
Jing Sen followed Wen Yang's gaze to the back seat of the taxi, glanced at Zhou Yufan who was still in a drunken dream, and a barely perceptible complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
He didn't say anything, just glanced at the assistant behind him.
Then he went over and pulled Zhou Yufan out from the back seat, pulling his arm around his shoulders and supporting him.
The assistant understood and took out five hundred yuan from his wallet and handed it to the taxi driver. His tone was calm but with unquestionable authority: "Here's the money. Drive away quickly."
The taxi driver took the money, looked at Jingsen and his group, then looked at Wen Yang. Although he was still a little reluctant, he didn't dare to say anything more. He muttered a few words and started the car and left.
Glancing at the intoxicated Zhou Yufan, Jing Sen said to Wen Yang, "I'm just about to go back to the hotel. I'll give you guys a ride."
Wen Yang originally wanted to agree. After all, it was so late and it would not be easy to call a taxi.
But when she saw Zhou Yufan leaning his head against Jingsen, her heart suddenly moved.
Zhou Yufan has always had a crush on Jingsen, but he just didn't dare say it out loud. If they could be alone together this time, it might be a good opportunity.
Wen Yang's mind moved slightly, and he suddenly refused: "No, Brother Jingsen, thank you for your kindness. I still have to meet a friend, so I won't bother you. Just help send Zhou Yufan back, I'll go back by myself later."
Jing Sen was stunned for a moment, as if a little surprised, but he didn't think much about it, just nodded: "Okay, then, be careful."
After saying that, he carried Zhou Yufan towards his nanny car.
Wen Yang watched them get in the car, and only when the nanny car slowly drove away could he help but raise an eyebrow.
Senior, when you wake up tomorrow, you must thank me for creating such a good opportunity for you.
Wen Yang withdrew his gaze and was about to call another taxi when his cell phone suddenly rang.
She glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Han Xi.
Wen Yang's heart skipped a beat. He wondered why Han Xi called at this time. Did he know about Fang Li's situation?
She took a deep breath, answered the phone, and tried to sound calmer: "Hello, President Han."
"Wen Yang, where's Fang Li?"
Han Xi's voice came through the receiver, with a hint of barely perceptible anxiety and fatigue.
Wen Yang's heart suddenly jumped into her throat. She didn't dare to say that Fang Li and Lu Jie were together. She could only say vaguely, "Fang Li, Fang Li should be asleep. She must be too tired today."
Han Xi was silent for a few seconds, without asking any further questions, and just said lightly: "I understand."
