19: The Destiny Child who was rear-ended, an encounter in the script

After Chi Wange entered the bookstore, she subconsciously looked towards her usual seat.

She didn't expect someone was already sitting there.

This was her usual seat.

Now occupied by someone else.

She subconsciously frowned.

However, Chi Wange's steps only paused slightly.

She didn't say much.

She planned to leave.

And find another place to read.

But.

Just at this moment.

Her peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of the cover of the book in Chen Tianming's hand.

"All Quiet on the Western Front...?"

Chi Wange's steps halted.

He was reading the same book as her?

She was slightly stunned.

Just then.

Chen Tianming, who had been reading with his head down, seemed to be planning to leave.

He closed the book in his hand.

Then stood up.

The moment Chen Tianming looked up.

Chi Wange looked at Chen Tianming's handsome, somewhat scholarly profile.

For a moment, she couldn't help but stare, captivated!

She even forgot to move!

Undoubtedly.

This was, in all her years.

The most handsome man she had ever seen.

Little did she know.

All of this was meticulously planned by Chen Tianming.

With his financial resources and good looks.

Having a makeup artist adjust his attire and hairstyle.

Coupled with some subtle behavioral adjustments from his ancient martial arts strength.

He didn't even need makeup.

He could easily exude that scholarly aura.

Based on his analysis of Chi Wange's information.

A top student like her.

Had never been in a relationship until now.

Plus, she had just entered society and hadn't been 'polluted' yet.

Compared to those successful men in society.

Her ideal prince charming would naturally be more inclined towards a man who shared her interests, had similar hobbies, and was handsome.

Coincidentally.

It wasn't difficult for Chen Tianming to achieve these things.

However, to appear more natural.

And not arouse the other party's suspicion.

After Chen Tianming stood up.

He didn't speak to Chi Wange.

As if he hadn't seen her.

After paying.

He simply walked past her and out.

By the time Chi Wange reacted again.

She turned her head to look outside the bookstore.

But where was Chen Tianming's shadow?

A hint of disappointment flashed in Chi Wange's eyes.

"He should come again, right?" A thought couldn't help but flash through Chi Wange's mind.

The next moment, a rare blush appeared on her pretty face.

She sat absentmindedly in the seat Chen Tianming had just occupied.

And opened the book in her hand.

...

On the other side.

Zhou Cai finally got his account unblocked!

However, having experienced the system's punishment.

This time, he didn't continue to pick up passengers in the center of Magic City.

Instead, he went directly to the more remote area beyond the Third Ring Road.

Zhou Cai had also come to terms with it.

—Anyway, for him, the main income came from the system, so it didn't matter where he went, as long as there were people.

Only then did he open the APP and start taking orders.

Beyond the Third Ring Road.

The roads were relatively clear.

Traffic jams were almost non-existent!

Having learned from the last lesson.

The place he chose this time was much more cautious.

Little did he know, all of this was seen by Chen Tianming through reports from his subordinates.

He sat on the sofa in the villa, chuckling: "Do you think changing places will make everything fine?"

"How naive."

...

After Zhou Cai changed places.

Things indeed became very smooth.

The number of vehicles coming and going became much fewer.

He no longer encountered traffic jam problems.

However.

There was also a problem in places with fewer people.

That was, the number of orders became much fewer.

It took a long time to get one order.

Correspondingly.

The frequency of system-triggered tasks also decreased significantly.

Just when Zhou Cai finally waited for the next order.

Accompanied by the APP's prompt sound.

The system in his mind finally sounded a prompt!

[Ding! Task activated, complete the next order within twenty minutes!]

"It's finally here!" A hint of excitement flashed across Zhou Cai's face.

He was about to drive towards the location on the map.

But just at this moment.

Bang!

He suddenly felt a strong push!

Which directly sent his entire body lurching forward a distance!

At the same time, the airbag in front of him deployed!

[Ding! Detected that the Host's current state cannot complete the current order!]

[Task failed!]

[Task failure penalty: Electrotherapy for fifteen seconds!]

Zhou Cai was already a bit dazed from the collision.

Bleeding from his temple.

Upon hearing this sound, he immediately widened his eyes.

"What? No... Ahhhh!"

After a violent convulsion.

Coupled with the effects of the previous impact.

Zhou Cai's eyes rolled back.

And he completely fainted!

...

When he opened his eyes again.

He was already in a Hospital bed.

After some inquiry.

He learned that he had been rear-ended by a drunk driver.

He himself was fine.

But the taxi was severely damaged.

The back half was almost compressed to half its original space.

It was certainly unrealistic to repair it and start taking orders again in a short time.

Unless he spent money to buy a new car.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Cai.

Nearly spat out a mouthful of blood!

[Protagonist Zhou Cai's mentality exploded, Devil's Value +999]

[Protagonist Zhou Cai doubted life, Devil's Value +999]

[...]

He was really going crazy!

Two days ago.

It was all kinds of traffic jams.

He originally thought changing places would solve it.

But he didn't expect that after changing places.

His car was actually hit directly!

This couldn't even be called bad luck!

It was simply being possessed by a jinx!

Just then.

He suddenly paused.

Because Zhou Cai suddenly thought.

His bad luck began.

It seemed to be because he had publicly shamed the manager from the neighboring company back then.

"Could it be him?" Zhou Cai's expression was uncertain.

He frowned.

However, he quickly reacted.

—The other party shouldn't have that much power.

"Could it really just be bad luck recently..."

Zhou Cai shook his head, finally giving up on thinking.

There was no evidence at present.

Thinking about it was futile.

After completing the discharge procedures.

He received tens of thousands of alliance coins in compensation.

This amount of money certainly couldn't satisfy him.

But he had no other choice.

He could only take a taxi back to his rental apartment.

For the next few days.

Because his original taxi was still being repaired.

He couldn't continue to pick up and drop off Chi Wange.

Chi Wange's taxi driver naturally changed to someone else.

Zhou Cai's original plan to take advantage of the situation to get closer to Chi Wange.

Was completely ruined by this car accident.

...

And Chi Wange naturally didn't know about Zhou Cai's situation.

In fact.

During her usual time.

She didn't have much to talk about with Zhou Cai.

Every time she took a ride.

It was often Zhou Cai who talked incessantly beside her.

While she occasionally responded with "Mm" or "Oh".

Even though she had clearly expressed her disinterest in talking.

Zhou Cai seemed not to notice.

Still talked incessantly about some nonsense to her every day after she got in the car.

This made her very annoyed.

But due to their relationship.

She didn't show it.

She just made up her mind.

That she would definitely buy her own car later.

Now, for some reason, Zhou Cai.

Suddenly no longer appeared in her life.

She, on the contrary, felt that life was much quieter.

And she wondered if her public acknowledgment of her relationship with Zhou Cai last time had an effect.

Until now.

No one had confessed to her again.

Coupled with her recent promotion.

She truly felt the beauty of life.

Her mood also improved a lot.

The only fly in the ointment was.

Her parents were urging her to marry recently.

Thinking of this.

She couldn't help but close her eyes with a hint of helplessness.
