However, this didn't mean the repair fee the curly-haired man mentioned was fake. On the contrary, it was a legitimate price with no markup. The cost was mainly for repainting the bodywork.

Though it was just an electric scooter, it wasn't an ordinary one. This was a scooter worth eleven Yuan! The cost of the paint job was not cheap at all.

A moment later, under Uncle Jin's reluctant gaze, Xia Liang rode off on the small electric donkey with Ling Ji, leaving behind a group of bruised and battered underclassmen silently cleaning up the battlefield.

After a night of passion at home, he took Ling Ji to work the next morning. Then, Xia Liang started another day of driving for DiDi.

「In a coffee shop in the city center.」

"Xiao Yan, you're twenty-five this year, right? Still haven't found a boyfriend?" a woman with a standard "internet celebrity" face asked He Zhiyao.

Another woman, who looked to be about 165 pounds, nodded in agreement. "Yeah, Xiao Yan, you shouldn't be so picky. Back in our university dorm, you had the most suitors out of all of us."

He Zhiyao was very pretty. She had a delicate oval face, large eyes, and the wholesome charm of the girl next door, complemented by a gentle, scholarly air.

After graduating from college, Zhang Dan's unimpressive resume, a result of her lack of effort, led her to get plastic surgery in South Korea. Afterwards, she became an internet celebrity and Anchor. She now had tens of thousands of followers and earned several points a month.

Ma Yan, who was overweight and not conventionally attractive, constantly faced rejection in her career. She eventually sought refuge with Zhang Dan, becoming her assistant. The two had their eyes on He Zhiyao's beauty and planned to recruit her as an Anchor.

"I'm still focused on advancing my career, so I'm not thinking about a boyfriend right now," He Zhiyao told her two former college roommates.

"Xiao Yan, you earn about one point a month at most, right?" Ma Yan said, prompted by a look from Zhang Dan. "In a big city like Shangjing, life must be very difficult with just one point. Why don't you become an Anchor too? With your looks and refined temperament, plus an introduction from Dan, you'd definitely get famous."

Ma Yan grew more excited as she spoke, as if certain He Zhiyao would be tempted.

Zhang Dan pulled out a business card. "This is from President Wang of Yuehua Entertainment Company. I went to great lengths to get it. I've already shown your picture to President Wang, and he's very impressed. He promised that if you're willing, he'll definitely make you a huge internet celebrity."

Zhang Dan's voice grew more excited as she spoke. Thinking of the rewards President Wang had promised her, she was eager to take He Zhiyao to meet him right away.

Looking at Zhang Dan and Ma Yan, whose expressions practically screamed 'abduction,' He Zhiyao felt a sudden sense of alienation. She wasn't foolish; she was smart. Otherwise, she wouldn't have landed such a good job with her excellent grades. She knew exactly what would happen if she agreed to their proposal. Leaving aside the question of whether she could even become an internet celebrity, the mere thought of President Wang's greasy, lecherous face disgusted her.

"Dan, Yan, something came up at work. I need to head back to the office," He Zhiyao said, standing up to leave. She was starting to feel afraid of the women who were once like sisters to her. To think they actually wanted her to go entertain that President Wang!

"Alright then. You don't have a car, do you?" Zhang Dan said, pressing a key fob. Outside the cafe, a Mercedes-Benz lit up. "I'll give you a ride."

He Zhiyao hesitated. Seeing the scheming looks on their faces, she realized it wasn't out of the question that they would try to take her directly to meet that President Wang.

"No, no, that's okay. I have a ride," He Zhiyao said, refusing quickly. She was now certain they were trying to drag her down with them, and her heart filled with a mix of complicated emotions.

"You're not planning to call a DiDi, are you? Don't waste the money! I'll give you a ride. We can even stop by and meet President Wang on the way," Zhang Dan said with an expression that showed she was sure she had He Zhiyao cornered. Ma Yan nodded in agreement.

"No thanks, my boyfriend is coming to get me," He Zhiyao replied, discreetly placing a DiDi order on her phone. She added a note to the request: *Dear driver, when you get here, can you pretend to be my boyfriend? Please! I'll definitely give you a five-star review!*

Xia Liang cruised down the street, causing a massive stir. Passersby whipped out their phones to record videos, posting them to their social media feeds. Some women even kicked off their high heels and ran after the car, hoping he would stop and give them a glance.

"OMG, have you guys ever seen a luxury car like this?"

"That's my boyfriend's car! Isn't it amazing?"

The comment sections were flooded with astonished replies.

"An order!" Xia Liang opened the request. It was for a pickup at a coffee shop in the city center. The note at the bottom piqued his interest. This will probably trigger a mission.

Xia Liang floored it, drawing screams from countless beautiful women on the street.

"Zhiyao, when did you get a secret boyfriend?" Zhang Dan asked, taking out her lipstick to touch up her makeup.

"What kind of car does he drive?" Ma Yan asked gossipily. Although He Zhiyao had never dated, it didn't mean her standards were low.

"Looks like a Volkswagen," He Zhiyao said, glancing at the order details on her phone.

Hearing it was a Volkswagen, Zhang Dan seemed to visibly relax. She pursed her lips and put her lipstick back in her purse.

"A Volkswagen is nice. It can't compare to President Wang's one-Yuan BMW, of course, but it's decent enough for a commuter car for an office worker," Ma Yan chimed in, taking the chance to flaunt President Wang's wealth.

"A BMW is nothing," Zhang Dan scoffed. "President Wang has plenty of luxury cars. Yan, you've ridden in them with me, haven't you? See my Mercedes out there? It's worth four hundred thousand Yuan, and President Wang gave it to me just like that!"
