Chapter 26: An Unlucky Start

Yang Chen finished tidying up the kitchen, and it was already past ten.However, getting into bed at this hour definitely wouldn’t lead to sleep, and it would surely turn into scrolling through Douyin, wasting time.

So, why not go for a run for two hours and then come back to sleep?

Yang Chen changed into some clothes and drove away in the Phideon.

Not far from the villa district, the system dispatched a request.

A passenger placed an order at the cinema entrance 1.5 kilometers away.

Yang Chen immediately seized the order and followed the navigation to find it.

After all, he’d just gotten the new car, and Yang Chen really wanted to kick off with a great start.

Hoping to provide the best service to the customer, striving to earn a good review.

At the cinema entrance, Yang Chen dialed the passenger’s number.

At that moment, a man and a woman walked over, and they looked like university students.

Yang Chen’s registration info on the Bibi platform was still listed as a Buick, so those two students looked a bit confused about the car and the license plate.

Yang Chen quickly got out of the car and said, "Sorry, my Buick with license ending in A52C13 is malfunctioning and is being repaired, so I came here with my newly purchased car to do the ride. Are you Mr. Zhang with the end number 3062?"

With Yang Chen saying the info so accurately, there surely wouldn’t be any issue.

The guy nodded, pulling the girl into the back seat of the car.

Yang Chen: "Welcome to Bibi Taxi, please fasten your seatbelt."

The girl asked urgently while fastening her seatbelt, "Driver, I’m a student at the Finance University, can you get to the entrance of the girls’ dormitory by 10:30?"

Yang Chen quickly turned around and took a look—it turned out she was a junior from Finance.

Let’s make some acquaintances later; this positive review should be secured.

"Which building? Block A or Block B?" Yang Chen quickly asked.

The girl hurriedly replied, "Block A."

It’s now 10:15, Finance University locks the dormitory gates and lights out at 10:30. If following the navigation, Yang Chen has to cover 15 kilometers in 15 minutes, which is quite a challenge.

Just hitting a few red lights, usually the journey wouldn’t be completed in time.

The guy nervously implored, "Driver, please, my girlfriend’s dormitory locks at 10:30. You must get us there before then."

Actually, he thought unless Yang Chen ran through red lights all the way, it would be absolutely impossible to reach the girls’ dormitory entrance before 10:30.

He deliberately delayed until now, intending for his girlfriend to stay outside tonight, and then... heh heh heh...

"I’m taking Lin Xiaoyu’s virginity tonight, not even Jesus can stop me! Haha..." the guy thought to himself.

The girl quickly chimed in, "Driver, can you get us to Block A by 10:30?"

Yang Chen immediately started the car, said, "No problem! Sit tight!"

The girl joyfully said, "Thank you, driver."

The guy, a bit anxious, quickly said, "Driver, don’t boast. If you can’t get to the dormitory by 10:30, we won’t pay, and you’ll have to take us back."

The girl quickly gave the guy a knowing look.

The guy whispered, "I’m bluffing him so he’ll drive faster."

The girl smiled and nodded.

Yang Chen chuckled, saying, "Don’t worry! Since I made this promise, I’ll surely fulfill it. Back when I was in school, I often brought my girlfriend here to watch movies, and after the show, I rushed back. 15 minutes is enough, just watch!"

Back in the day, Yang Chen drove his Buick every weekend to take Zhao Feifei to the movies, then drive to get back before the dormitory locked.

Thus, Yang Chen was confident in getting them to Block A girls’ dormitory before 10:30.

The girl quickly asked, "Ah? Driver, are you also a Finance University graduate?"

Yang Chen smiled and replied, "Yes! I just graduated last year."

The girl excitedly asked, "Which department were you in? What’s your name?"

"My name is Yang Chen, Marketing. What about you?" Yang Chen replied.

"I’m Lin Xiaoyu, English major. Haha... I didn’t expect such a coincidence, getting a ride from a senior’s car," Lin Xiaoyu said with a smile.

At this moment, the navigation notified Yang Chen that there was a deviation.

The guy immediately asked, "Hey? Where are you headed? Why did you deviate?"

Yang Chen laughed and answered, "If we take the main road, we definitely won’t get back in time. Taking the shortcut saves us 5 minutes, just enough to ensure you get to the dormitory entrance."

Lin Xiaoyu happily said, "Seems like senior is really familiar with the roads. Can we add WeChat later, so we can contact you directly if needed?"

Yang Chen nodded, saying, "Sure, let’s discuss it when we get there."

This really infuriated the guy.

He originally intentionally delayed until fifteen minutes were left for Lin Xiaoyu to call a taxi, ensuring she couldn’t get back to the dormitory.

Once she couldn’t return to the dormitory, she’d gradually fall into his trap, and tonight he’d take her virginity.

He never imagined encountering Yang Chen, a driver who didn’t understand the situation, and would desperately try to get them back to the dormitory on time.

Passing through a small path, then through a residential area, the car surged onto the main road, and Finance University was ahead.

Lin Xiaoyu looked at the time and saw there were three minutes left, excitedly saying, "Senior, senior, you rock, there are three minutes left, go, go! Haha..."

Yang Chen didn’t say anything, but the guy was fuming, his face turned red with anger.

Soon, Yang Chen drove to the campus entrance where the guard blocked the way.

The guy immediately perked up, as even a one-minute delay would be enough.

Lin Xiaoyu quickly said, "Driver, driver, I’m an English major student, the dormitory is closing soon, please let us in, or I won’t be able to return. Please, please."

The guard nodded and quickly opened the electric gate allowing Yang Chen to drive in.

There was a minute left at this moment.

However, there were already few people in the campus, so Yang Chen could drive a bit faster.

A distance of over a thousand meters, Yang Chen took only a minute to reach there.

When the car stopped at the entrance of Block A girls’ dormitory, Lin Xiaoyu hastily took out her phone urging Yang Chen to add her on WeChat.

"Senior, senior, quickly add me as a friend. Oh, auntie, wait a minute, I’m coming right away!"

Lin Xiaoyu was panicking; she was trying to add Yang Chen as a friend while yelling at the dorm manager to keep the door open.

Lin Xiaoyu scanned Yang Chen’s WeChat, added him as a friend, and hurriedly ran inside.

While her boyfriend remained seated in the car, dumbfounded.

You’d almost think they were strangers.

She just went in like that, without even bidding farewell to him.

Is this definitely a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?

Lin Xiaoyu ran into the dormitory entrance, remembering her boyfriend was still sitting in the car.

She quickly called her boyfriend to apologize.

The boyfriend hadn’t taken her virginity yet, so of course he wouldn’t get angry with her, generously comforting her that it’s okay, as long as she made it back to the dorm.

After hanging up, Lin Xiaoyu sent a message to Yang Chen.

"Senior, thank you for getting me back on time. Please take my boyfriend home too. I’ll transfer the fare to you later. Thanks a lot."

Yang Chen showed the WeChat to the guy, saying, "Brother, your girlfriend asked me to take you home. Are you going to place an order on the platform, or should I take you directly, or do you not need my car?"

The guy chuckled, saying, "I definitely need your car. Let’s go, to Fukang Garden."

Yang Chen located Fukang Garden and then started the car heading in that direction.

Just outside the campus not far away, the platform notified Yang Chen of receiving a negative review.

This night’s only ride must be a negative review given by the guy in the back seat.

At this point, the system had sent out a notification.

"Congratulations to the host for earnestly receiving a negative review. The system rewards the host with an actual combat version of [Baji Fist], effective immediately."

A lot of silhouetted figures popped up in Yang Chen’s mind, and after a few seconds, everything returned to peace, as if nothing had happened.

However, Yang Chen had already comprehended the actual combat version of [Baji Fist].

At this moment, the guy in the back was contacting people via WeChat.

Yang Chen asked, "Brother, what’s the meaning of this? I ran 15 kilometers in 15 minutes to make sure you got back, efficiently getting your girlfriend to the dormitory. Why did you give me a negative review? I just hoped to get a good start with my new car. Was there something specific I did wrong? You can point it out; I’ll make it up to you, don’t give me a negative review."
