Chapter 534 - 233: The Overbearing Foreigner Entangles Lin Yiren (Part 2)
The outcome was predictable: he was forcibly dragged out and scolded, then obediently picked up the money and apologized to the traffic officer.
In the end, the traffic officer gave him half an hour of legal education and fined him 500 yuan before letting him go.
Yang Chen was speechless, damn it, had to listen to half an hour of legal education.
Setting off again.
Yang Chen complained, "Mister, see, there was no need for all this fuss. Buckling up takes just a few seconds, and we’ve wasted over half an hour."
Mister: "Damn! What are you babbling about? Haven’t you been charging me all along? You won’t lose any money, stop whining. A mere ride-share driver trying to lecture me?"
Yang Chen chuckled and didn’t say more.
Soon, Yang Chen brought the mister to the destination.
After he got out of the car, Yang Chen sent a message to the bodyguard following him.
"Teach that old bastard a lesson, say I did it, but don’t leave any evidence."
Then, Yang Chen drove home.
A few seconds later, the Bibi platform notified Yang Chen of a negative review.
"Nothing is going well tonight, I can’t let anything go smoothly for you either!"
This review was something, and Yang Chen was left speechless.
At this moment, the system sent a reminder.
"Congratulations to the master for receiving a negative review, the system rewards the master with [Bian He’s Jade Collection]. The master can choose whether to read the book slowly or have the system directly help master to comprehend it."
Who is Bian He?
Historically, he was the one who discovered the famous He Shi Bi.
Legend has it that this guy found a stone on Jing Mountain and realized it contained a stunning piece of jade.
He wanted to curry favor with the king and offered it to King Li of Chu.
After identification, King Li of Chu deemed it to be just a regular mountain rock and concluded Bian He was deceiving the king, and had him cut off his left kneecap.
Later, when King Li of Chu died, King Wu of Chu took the throne, and Bian He offered the treasure again.
King Wu of Chu also identified it just as a regular mountain rock, and had Bian He’s right kneecap cut off.
Eventually, King Wu of Chu died, and King Wen of Chu came to power.
Bian He, having lost both kneecaps, didn’t dare to offer the treasure again. He cried at the foot of Jing Mountain for three days and nights, and his tears turned to blood.
King Wen of Chu sent someone to ask why he was crying so sadly, to which Bian He said he was sad because no one recognized the treasure.
King Wen had the stone opened, and indeed there was a piece of jade inside, which became the historically renowned He Shi Bi.
It’s unknown whether anything was wrong with Bian He; why didn’t he ask the previous two kings to open the stone to see, only waiting until the third king’s reign after losing two kneecaps?
Anyway, the legend illustrates one thing: Bian was skilled in recognizing jade, able to see beauty where others saw just a regular stone.
If that mister had this book, would he have lost three million?
He’d have picked out all the stones with jade from Mingcui Square.
Horses don’t get fat without night grazing, people don’t get rich without windfalls.
Looks like the system wants Yang Chen to sweep Mingcui Square.
Now Yang Chen had to make a choice; if he chose the book, it meant using years, even a lifetime to understand it, and having the book meant a risk that this incredible skill could leak out.
So after careful consideration, Yang Chen decided to directly comprehend.
System: "Command received, please wait."
Images of countless stones and jade appeared in Yang Chen’s mind, along with a figure examining stones from various angles.
A few seconds later, everything returned to normal.
Feeling delighted, Yang Chen considered going to Mingcui Square to test if Bian He’s jade-collecting skills worked in this day and age.
Just as Yang Chen arrived home, Bibi customer service called him.
Customer service: "Master Yang, a passenger just called to complain that you arranged for someone to beat him up. Did that happen?"
Yang Chen: "Huh? No way! Is there some mistake? Which order was it?"
Customer service: "The last trip you took."
Yang Chen: "Nope! I just got home, haven’t stepped out of the car yet. You can check the surveillance, I didn’t have anyone beat him. That mister isn’t a decent person; he lost three million in gambling and went up against traffic police, who knows what enemies he has. He can’t blame me if he got beaten up; I’m so innocent."
Customer service: "Alright then. Now I know how to handle it. Sorry to disturb you so late. Have a good rest, wishing you a pleasant life."
Yang Chen: "Alright."
Hanging up the phone, Yang Chen joyfully whistled as he got out of the car and went into the house.
...
Lin Yiren has been extremely busy since she was promoted to chief purser, not only flying international routes but also training stewards.
As she said, she didn’t want colleagues gossiping that Yang Chen made her chief purser disregarding ability; she wanted to prove she was truly proficient for the role.
However, she is only human, and her body naturally couldn’t endure such intense work for long.
So, after flying back from the United States, she used her accrued leave during the New Year to take a good rest.
Lin Yiren messaged Yang Chen in advance, asking him to pick her up at the airport at 5:30 tomorrow evening.
Since Wang Jiayi and others already have cars, Lin Yiren shouldn’t be left out.
Yang Chen doesn’t play favorites or neglect anyone, so he’ll buy Lin Yiren a BMW Z4 too.
