Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints

Chapter 359 - 188: 100 Tables for the Bride, Two Tables Half-Filled for the Groom—What Now? (2)

Huang Lvxie: "Okay, okay."

Yang Chen: "By the way, hasn’t the hotel been bidding for garden renovation lately?"

Huang Lvxie: "Yes! We want to upgrade and renovate the landscape around the hotel."

Yang Chen then told Huang Lvxie about Chen Yanxi’s situation and asked if he could allow the person in charge to give her another half an hour to present.

Huang Lvxie was greatly surprised and said: "Mr. Yang is that enthusiastic online ride-hailing driver?"

Yang Chen: "Ah, yes. Just happened to come across it, can’t pretend not to see it, right?"

Huang Lvxie was instantly baffled, thinking how a ride-hailing driver could acquire 38% of the hotel’s shares?

There are only five acknowledged seven-star hotels in Dragon Country, and Haiyalantis was the second one certified as a seven-star hotel.

There are only two outlets in the entire Dragon Country, one in Hai City and the other in Shanya.

Countless capital and wealthy individuals want to invest in the Haiyalantis Hotel, but the shareholders are unwilling to sell their shares.

That Yang Chen could acquire 38% of the shares not only implies he is wealthy but also indicates he has powerful social connections. He must have certain means to force the shareholders to sell shares to him.

How could such a person be a ride-hailing driver?

Huang Lvxie: "Mr. Yang is really beyond comprehension. I understand what you mean. I’ll call the project leader right away to give your mentioned Chen Yanxi another chance."

Yang Chen: "Yeah! I’m off to drive my customers, bye."

Huang Lvxie: "Okay, okay..."

Being so wealthy yet still doing ride-hailing, it’s truly hard to understand the world of rich people.

...

On October 10th, after picking up passengers during the morning rush hour, Yang Chen went to the Haiyalantis Hotel.

Previously, Yang Chen had only passed by here and had never visited this hotel.

Now he could take a good look at what the second highest-ranked seven-star hotel in the country is like.

The main building of the hotel is a ring-shaped structure 100 meters high and 116 meters wide, also being the first ring-type overwater building in the country, leaving a lasting impression with its shape alone.

Additionally, it is the first all-inclusive overwater platinum seven-star hotel in Dragon Country, combining ecology, leisure, entertainment, gourmet, and shopping.

In short, coming here, everyone genuinely exclaims: having money is truly great!

Chen Xing’s old partner’s exact occupation is unknown, but judging from his tone, he seems to be a wealthy person.

Therefore, choosing to hold the wedding here should be her decision, also indicating she is quite well-off; otherwise, she wouldn’t dare to host a wedding here.

Yang Chen parked his car and walked towards the hotel entrance.

As expected of a seven-star hotel, all you see are luxury cars.

"Beep beep..."

As Yang Chen was walking, a car horn sounded from behind.

He turned around and saw it was a pink Porsche 911.

The car owner was a very fashionably dressed woman.

"What are you looking at? Move aside! Can’t you see I need to park?" the female driver shouted.

Damn, this is a pedestrian walkway, parking your car on a pedestrian walkway?

"It’s a walkway, can’t you understand?" Yang Chen replied bluntly.

If she were a bit polite, Yang Chen wouldn’t have said anything and just moved aside.

But with an attitude like she owes him money, Yang Chen didn’t want to accommodate her.

Female driver: "I know it’s a walkway; I just want to use it to make a U-turn and park in the space!"

Unbelievable!

An impressive female driver, who needs tens of square meters just to park a car.

Yang Chen couldn’t be bothered to waste words on this nutcase and quickly turned towards the hotel.

"What’s a guy driving a lousy Volkswagen doing at such a high-end hotel? Isn’t he embarrassed! When did Haiyalantis Hotel stoop to entertaining such paupers?" the female driver muttered quietly.

If he weren’t here to attend a wedding and didn’t want to spoil his mood, Yang Chen would really like to find out whether the man sleeping with her mom is impressive or the man sleeping with her is impressive, giving her the courage to be so arrogant in public.

Following the signs and staff’s guidance, Yang Chen arrived at Chen Xing’s wedding venue.

At first glance, Yang Chen felt slightly uncomfortable.

The bride’s side was packed, with all 100 tables occupied.

Moreover, they were divided into several areas.

Such as the [Elementary Classmates Area], [Middle School Classmates Area], [College Classmates Area], [Outstanding Employees Area], [VIP Clients Area], [Social Friends Area], etc.

But 10 tables were reserved on the groom’s side, with only two areas, [Family and Friends Area] and [Bibi Driver Colleagues Area], and only two tables were partly filled, with the remaining eight tables completely empty.

It was already past ten, and those who were supposed to come essentially had, meaning that among the driver group, aside from Yang Chen, Zhang Hu, Liu Hu, and Zhang He, no one else showed up.

Thinking about it, it’s normal—they’re merely fellow drivers from the same platform, occasionally having meals or foot massages together, but mostly busy driving with little interaction, so why would they want to attend such a high-class wedding banquet?

If they came with just a few hundred bucks, they’d definitely be mocked.

If they brought a few thousand, it would exceed their limits.

Therefore, not coming was the wisest choice.

But one couldn’t help but pity Chen Xing, who desperately wanted everyone to come and support him.

But reality is always so cruel, isn’t it?

Liu Hu and the others, seeing Yang Chen arrive, hurriedly stood up to greet him.

Meanwhile, the bride’s relatives had already started mocking the groom’s side.

"What’s with the groom’s side? Can’t even fill two tables? It’s hilarious, right?"

"You can tell it’s a humble household, where the family line is at risk of ending with just one child."

"Isn’t it obvious? The groom’s a gigolo, living off a woman’s money. Otherwise, how could someone in their twenties marry a 55-year-old woman?"
