Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints

Chapter 383 - 194: I’ve Been a Professional Fake Boyfriend for Twenty Years (Part 2)

Jin Ming and others quickly looked over.

Jin Ming smiled and got up, running over to hold Yang Chen’s hand, explaining, "I’m accompanying the manager to meet a client. What brings you here?"

Yang Chen: "Oh, I just dropped off a passenger for dinner. He left something in my car, so I brought it over, and I didn’t expect to see you."

Jin Ming pulled Yang Chen over, smiling as she said, "Chairman Chen, Manager Lin, let me introduce my boyfriend Yang Chen. Ah Chen, this is my company’s investment department manager Lin Ming, and this is Chairman Chen from the rural commercial bank."

Yang Chen smiled and shook hands with the two, greeting them.

Lin Ming’s expression changed, but he soon smiled and asked, "Jin Ming, how come we haven’t heard about this? When did you get a boyfriend?"

Jin Ming: "We just confirmed our relationship last week. I generally don’t like to talk about personal matters, so I didn’t tell everyone."

Lin Ming: "What does Mr. Yang do for a living?"

Yang Chen: "I’m a driver for the Bibi platform."

Lin Ming almost couldn’t hold back his laughter.

A ride-hailing driver and an investment circle goddess, completely from different worlds. How could they possibly be in a relationship?

"Haha... I see. Jin Ming wants to use this method to get rid of me. How childish, am I that easy to fool? Okay! Since you’re pretending to be her boyfriend, I’ll let you know that some things shouldn’t be done, and if you do, you’ll have to face serious consequences," Lin Ming thought to himself.

Lin Ming laughed and said, "Since we’ve met, why not sit down for a meal together? Chairman Chen, what do you think?"

Chairman Chen: "Haha... It’s appropriate. What’s inappropriate about it?"

Yang Chen hurriedly declined, "No, no, I won’t interrupt your business talk. I’ll wait nearby, and when you’re done, I can chat with Mingming."

Chairman Chen: "Haha... It’s no problem, you should sit down. We’ve already finished discussing business; it’s alright."

Lin Ming: "Chairman Chen said it’s alright, so you should sit down. Otherwise, we’d worry you might have some misunderstanding. Right, Chairman Chen?"

Chairman Chen: "Haha... Right, right, you should stay."

Jin Ming: "Since Chairman Chen and the manager want you to stay, you should sit down."

Yang Chen: "No, it’s my first time here. I’d rather open a table by myself to really experience the food and service here."

Yang Chen wasn’t just making it up; it truly was his first time here.

But in the future, he could come here often, even daily without issue.

So, he sat down at the empty table nearby.

Lin Ming: "Mr. Yang, order whatever you like. It’s rare to come once; who knows when the next time will be. I’m treating, so go ahead."

Lin Ming still wanted to show off in front of Jin Ming.

Yang Chen: "No need, I’ll pay for myself. I’m a bit picky with food, so the price might be a bit high, and I wouldn’t want Manager Lin to pay for it. It would be awkward if you didn’t bring enough money."

Lin Ming showed a disdainful smile. What could a ride-hailing driver be picky about?

How picky could he be?

"Trying to show off in front of me, huh? So childish, do you think I can’t see through your act? Alright, let’s see how much Jin Ming is willing to spend on this performance," Lin Ming thought to himself.

Then Lin Ming smiled and said, "I’ve definitely brought enough money, so no worries there. But since you insist on paying, I won’t push. Let me introduce a few dishes to you that I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with. After you eat, you’ll want to come back."

Yang Chen: "Really? That sounds good! Please go ahead, Manager Lin."

Lin Ming: "French foie gras, Italian black truffle, Kobe beef, sturgeon caviar, these are all world-famous top ingredients. Since it’s a rare visit, wouldn’t you want to try them?"

Yang Chen: "Great suggestion! Waiter, I’ll take a portion of each of those things that Manager Lin mentioned."

The waiter was immediately delighted and nodded quickly, "Alright, alright. Please wait, I’ll immediately place the order with the kitchen."

Jin Ming’s face looked troubled, so many expensive ingredients, her wallet might not be enough.

However, since she’d invited Yang Chen to help, she had to endure it no matter what.

Lin Ming’s lips formed a sly smile. He thought to himself, "Jin Ming’s expression changed, haha... I wonder how they’ll continue this act. Do they think such small tricks will work on me?"

Soon, the food was served by the waiter.

The other dishes were okay, but the caviar portion was too small.

The default portion was 10 grams, priced at 1998 yuan.

Only one spoonful for 10 grams, that’s too stingy.

Yang Chen: "Excuse me, Miss, what’s with this caviar portion? It’s so little, I’ll finish it in one bite. It’s rare for me to come, and with portions like this, people might think I can’t afford it. Bring me a whole can; one for me and one for my girlfriend, and open a bottle of champagne to go with it."

Waiter: "Ah? Sir, this is European sturgeon caviar, it’s quite expensive. One can is about 250 grams, costing 50,000 yuan."

Yang Chen: "No problem, as long as the food is delicious, it’s worth the price. Go ahead, bring it over, one can for each of us. A three-star restaurant being so stingy isn’t something to boast about."

The waiter was a bit stunned; today they met a tycoon who didn’t seem to know how to spend money wisely.

"Alright, alright, I’ll bring it right away," the waiter said happily.

Lin Ming and Chairman Chen were both a bit baffled by the side, wondering if being a ride-hailing driver had become lucrative?
