"Me?"

Seeing Qingqing give him a meaningful glance, Xia Liang said, "Her boyfriend."

"Boy… boyfriend?"

Just then, his phone announced, "Received an order…"

Upon hearing this, the Sycophant guy grew even more annoyed, mainly because Xia Liang was better looking than him. He snorted coldly. "You're just a Didi driver."

Xia Liang didn't care at all. "What's wrong with driving for Didi? Is there a problem?"

"A toad lusting after a swan! What gives you the right to pursue the tycoon's daughter?"

Tycoon? Xia Liang glanced at Qingqing with some surprise. "So, you're saying *you're* worthy?"

The Sycophant guy flicked his bangs, revealing a confident smile as he gestured behind himself.

Xia Liang followed his gaze to a white BMW X7.

"See that? A BMW! The new X7! Starts at one million Yuan! You, a Didi driver… let me guess your car. A BYD? A Wuling Hongguang? Are you planning to have Susu bouncing around in a wreck every day?"

Xia Liang couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at! Have you never seen a BMW before?"

Xia Liang took out his car key and pressed a button. "So we're comparing cars, are we? Hmm, let me think… what model was mine again?"

"Model? You actually have a model to remember?"

The Sycophant guy doubled over with laughter. This Didi driver must be insane. "I'll tell you what model you have. Is it a BYD electric car or the almighty Wuling Hongguang?"

Qingqing couldn't stand the Sycophant guy's typical behavior. If it weren't for the business dealings between their fathers, she wouldn't give him the time of day. Even this car repair was only happening because he had shamelessly insisted on doing it for free.

Given her family's wealth, the money for the repair was trivial. However, her father, a self-made tycoon, had raised her well. As a result, Qingqing lacked the arrogance and bossiness common among rich heirs. On the contrary, she was very approachable and disliked causing trouble.

At that moment, she was pulling on Xia Liang's arm to leave, only to find the Sycophant guy blocking their path.

He smirked maliciously. "Let me have a look, don't be shy. Hey, it couldn't be that little delivery truck by the door, could it?"

Qingqing was getting angry, but her good upbringing meant her rebuke was mild. "You… don't go too far! You're horrible!"

The Bootlicker was used to being scolded by all sorts of beautiful women, so to him, an insult of this level was like a sweet whisper.

"Qingqing, I'm trying to help you. Don't let people from the bottom of society harbor ill intentions toward you."

Hearing this, Xia Liang strode forward and threw a punch.

The force of the blow sent the Sycophant guy stumbling back several steps before he fell to the ground.

"You dare hit me? Do you know who I am?"

Xia Liang walked up, stood tall, and looked down his nose at the man on the floor. "Who you are doesn't concern me, but I won't stand for you insulting working people."

With that, as the Sycophant guy's eyes practically bulged with rage, Xia Liang pressed his car key.

RUMBLE, RUMBLE, RUMBLE!!

The engine roared to life automatically, the sound of the exhaust echoing down the entire street.

The Sycophant guy whipped his head toward the sound. On the street, the headlights of a Lamborghini Poison blazed to life. The sound was more beautiful than… anything.

No, this has to be a coincidence. There's no way it's this Didi driver's car. he thought, frantically scanning the area for any other beat-up vehicles.

Then, Xia Liang pressed the key again.

The Sycophant guy watched, dumbfounded, as the gull-wing doors of the Bugatti slowly rose.

Holy shit! It's really his! He was so shocked his eyes felt like they were about to pop out of their sockets. My dad is the biggest auto dealer in Qingyun City, handling sales, repairs, and after-sales service for practically the entire city. Growing up around cars, I obviously know what this is. More importantly, I learned from my dad how to judge a person by their car. This Didi driver… he's definitely someone important. Anyone who can drive a car like this has a background I absolutely cannot afford to offend. As for Qingqing, who cares about her anymore? With money, I can get any woman I want. Going after her was just my dad's idea anyway. But this low-key God of Wealth… if I can get on his good side and we become brothers, the future benefits would be endless!

With that thought, the Bootlicker's true nature was laid bare. If I can't suck up to a purebred, a golden retriever will have to do. No, wait, this brother just hit me. With that explosive temper, he's not a golden retriever, he's a priceless Tibetan Mastiff! Time to act! A wise man knows when to yield!

He scrambled to his feet, not even bothering to dust himself off. His face suddenly broke into the same fawning smile he'd worn when he first saw Qingqing.

"Bro, I was just joking with you."

This guy is just asking for a beating, Xia Liang thought.

"Joke my ass."

"Yes, yes, your ass! I knew it! Anyone with Sister Qingqing has to be low-key, luxurious, and tasteful!"

Qingqing, standing to the side, was stunned. This Sycophant guy was five or six years older than her; why on earth was he suddenly calling her "Sister"?

Xia Liang looked at the man and smiled. "Remember this: being too flashy will get your face slapped."

"Got it, Bro!" he exclaimed. "Your teachings will benefit me for a lifetime, Big Brother!"

"Sister Qingqing! Come on, let's go check on the car!" the Sycophant guy said, walking over and gently nudging her toward Xia Liang. "Sister Qingqing, you've got excellent taste!"

Disgusting. Qingqing thought, shrinking away from him while her eyes remained fixed on Xia Liang.

What kind of charm does he possess to make a rich girl like me, pampered by countless men my whole life, fall for him? What is it about him that makes a girl who's been fawned over endlessly finally understand what it feels like for her heart to flutter?

She gazed dreamily at Xia Liang for a moment. To her surprise, he hadn't even noticed her staring. Instead, he asked, "Is that your car?"

Qingqing snapped back to reality and pointed.

Xia Liang followed the direction of her delicate hand to a Porsche Cayenne.

Not bad. The tycoon's daughter isn't too flashy; she has good manners, he thought.

Xia Liang walked straight to the car, got in, and expertly started the engine, checking the dashboard and other instruments.

The Sycophant guy leaned on the car window, still smiling. "Bro, you really know your cars, huh? From now on, any repairs you need at my place are on the house!"

Xia Liang shot him a look.

The Sycophant guy immediately realized his mistake. "Ah, Bro, I misspoke! It's not about the money! How about this? As a welcoming gift, you get lifelong at-home maintenance! It has nothing to do with money, I swear. It's just a little something from your brother to make things more convenient for you."

Xia Liang paid him no mind. Seeing that the car was fine, he turned to Qingqing. "The car's fine. I've got more orders to take."

With that, he left the shop without a backward glance at the two of them, leaving Qingqing and the Sycophant guy staring after him, each lost in their own schemes.

「 」

Meanwhile, Xia Liang had just completed a delivery when his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up, and a familiar voice came through from the other end.

"Hello? I have the money. Tonight at eight, Paradise Bar. Let's settle this face-to-face!"
