Chapter 487: Chapter 221: You’re Driving a Ride-Share and Still Bring Bodyguards?

Chen Qingxia: "Hehe... of course. Tonight’s on me, let’s not leave until we’re drunk!"

Yang Chen: "Do we really have to get drunk? You don’t have any ulterior motives toward me, do you?"

Chen Qingxia: "That’s right! I must tell you, going against a woman’s wishes is against the law, you know."

"Haha..." Yang Chen laughed out loud.

Chen Qingxia probably doesn’t earn much in a month, so Yang Chen only ordered beer.

The two of them kept drinking bottle after bottle and unknowingly finished ten bottles.

Yang Chen felt a little dizzy and said, "I can’t take it anymore; I shouldn’t drink any more."

Chen Qingxia’s cheeks were flushed as she giggled and said, "My heartthrob, why have you become two people? Hehe... did you learn how to do the splitting technique?"

Alrighty, she’s really drunk.

Yang Chen waved his hand to call the waiter for the bill.

Chen Qingxia was slurring her words a bit and said, "Don’t fight with me, I’m paying today! Handsome waiter, how much is it?"

Waiter: "Miss, it’s 298 in total."

Chen Qingxia took out three hundred yuan and handed it to the waiter, saying, "Keep the change! My heartthrob, let’s go!"

Yang Chen and Chen Qingxia supported each other as they walked out of the bar.

As soon as they were outside, Chen Qingxia fell into Yang Chen’s arms and didn’t respond to anything he said.

In their current state, there was no way they could drive home.

Yang Chen had no idea where Chen Qingxia lived, so he had to find a hotel nearby to stay the night.

Just as Yang Chen laid Chen Qingxia on the bed, she suddenly clung tightly to his neck.

"Hey, hey, hey, you’re gonna strangle me," Yang Chen said.

Chen Qingxia abruptly opened her eyes and said, "Let me educate you with a little law lesson: going against a woman’s wishes is illegal. Did you understand?"

Yang Chen was taken aback for a moment, then tried to get up, but Chen Qingxia pulled him back down.

"Are you trying to break the law?" Chen Qingxia asked.

"I knew you had ulterior motives asking me out for drinks!" Yang Chen replied helplessly.

"Haha... now you understand, but it’s too late! My heartthrob, just give in to me." Chen Qingxia laughed.

Alright, she’s pretending to be drunk.

Man, this is a big loss; I helped her solve a major case, got nothing in return, and ended up in this situation myself.

"I’m just joking, I wouldn’t actually want to experience that," he said.

...

Even though Yang Chen had excellent physical fitness, he was exhausted by the 26-year-old primal energy Chen Qingxia had accumulated, and didn’t wake up until noon.

Yang Chen headed to the hotel restaurant for lunch when Qiu Yuhong called.

Qiu Yuhong: "Mr. Yang, as per your request, I’ve selected five skilled, but ordinary-looking guys to protect you. Where are you now? I’ll send them over."

Yang Chen: "I’m having lunch at Yundu Hotel, the car is parked downstairs, tell them to come over. Make sure they’re clear about following at a distance and not showing up unless necessary."

Qiu Yuhong: "Don’t worry, Mr. Yang, I’ve briefed them thoroughly."

With these five bodyguards, whoever dares to ambush Yang Chen halfway will have a hard time.

After lunch, Yang Chen checked out and left the hotel.

As soon as Yang Chen logged into his Bibi account, the system sent him an order with a passenger less than ten meters away.

Yang Chen called him, and a bespectacled young man, who appeared very honest, walked over.

"Wow, this is so close! It’s the fastest I’ve ever gotten in a car. Haha..." the passenger said with a laugh.

The Bibi platform’s order-pushing mechanism works based on proximity—given the passenger was less than ten meters from Yang Chen, the order naturally came to him.

Yang Chen smiled as he verified the passenger’s phone number, then drove him to the destination.

Originally, everything seemed normal to Yang Chen, but after driving for a while, he felt something was off.

This was already the desolate outskirts of Jia Ding North District, no one in sight—what’s this guy doing here?

At that moment, the passenger received a call and then said to Yang Chen, "Driver, could you take that little road up ahead? My friend is fishing there; I’m going to join the fun. Thanks."

Yang Chen: "Then you should update the destination in the app."

The passenger nodded and randomly marked a location on the map, updating the destination to there.

Yang Chen turned onto the small road and ahead was a pond.

Indeed, there were some people fishing by the pond.

As soon as Yang Chen’s car stopped at the entrance, the group rushed over and surrounded his car.

Then, the couple whom Yang Chen beat up yesterday walked over.

Burberry man, Zhou Ming, grinned and said, "Sun Thief, remember me?"

The woman sneered and said, "You enjoyed hitting us yesterday, didn’t you? You think you’re so tough? We brought over 20 guys today; let’s see if you can take them on."

Yang Chen nodded with a smile and said, "So you went through all this trouble to ambush me here for revenge. A fight will definitely happen, but I won’t be the one fighting—let them play with you instead."

Just then, a small Jinbei van drove up.

Five men jumped out and shoved away those surrounding Yang Chen’s car.

Burberry man Zhou Ming was utterly shocked and asked, "You drive a rideshare and still have bodyguards?"

"Why not? Who says running a rideshare means I can’t have bodyguards?" Yang Chen replied with a smile, then ordered, "They want a fight, so entertain them a bit, alright? Give special attention to this pair of jerks."

"Yes!" the five responded in unison.

Then they took off their jackets and charged ahead, striking first.

There may have been only five of them, but they were taking on over twenty.

However, these five were the elite handpicked by Qiu Yuhong. Each could easily take on seven or eight men, if not more.
