Chapter 14 - My Car is a two-seater

n“Anyway, I’ve already told my colleagues that you would go with me. That young man is not bad. He works in a public institution and has some money. You two are suitable to be together,” Xia Hongyuan said.

n

n“I already have a boyfriend. I don’t need you to introduce me,” Xia Xinyu said.

n

n“You have a boyfriend?” Xia Hongyuan asked in surprise.

n

n“Where did you find a boyfriend?”

n

n“Where else could I get a boyfriend? I found one myself,” Xia Xinyu said. “Do you think I dug him out from the ground?”

n

nThe old couple was abnormally excited when they found out that their daughter had a boyfriend.

n

n“Then what are you waiting for? Ask the family to take a look. We’ll check him out for you.”

n

n“Ah? You want our family to take a look?”

n

nXia Xinyu was at a loss for words. She had just said it casually. Why did these guys take it so seriously?

n

n“That’s right. Since you have a boyfriend, we naturally have to see who he is. We can’t just casually hand you over, right?”

n

n“Forget about meeting him. He’s also quite busy with work. We’ll talk about it another day.”

n

nXia Xinyu stood up. “I still have something to do in a while, so I’ll be leaving first.”

n

n“Stop!”

n

nXia Hongyuan said, “I think you’re trying to trick me.”

n

n“No, I really have a boyfriend. Don’t even think about introducing me to someone else.”

n

n“I’ve raised you for more than 20 years. Don’t you think I know what you’re like?” Xia Hongyuan said.

n

n“If you don’t bring your boyfriend here today, you must obediently follow me to the party. You can choose your fate.”

n

n“Alright, I’ll make a call and ask him then.”

n

nBack in the house, Xia Xinyu was running around like a headless chicken.

n

nIt had been so many years, and she did not have many friends of the opposite sex. Where could she find someone to pretend to be with her!

n

nHuh?

n

nSuddenly, Xia Xinyu’s eyes lit up and she muttered to herself, ‘How about finding a delivery boy to pretend to be with her?’

n

nHowever, very quickly, Xia Xinyu dismissed these thoughts.

n

nA delivery boy was definitely not allowed. If he did not dress appropriately, her parents would not believe her. It would be too easy for her to be exposed.

n

n“A Didi driver seems to be pretty good option,” Xia Xinyu thought.

n

nAt the very least, he would have a car and would have some form of assets.

n

nThe only thing left was to find a younger driver!

n

nIt was perfect!

n

nBecause she usually took taxis, there were two taxi-hailing apps on Xia Xinyu’s phone.

n

nOne was Didi, and the other was Kuadi.

n

nShe would use the service that offered more discounts.

n

nHowever, the situation was different this time. Due to the size of Didi, she ended up choosing Didi.

n

nShe picked a random destination and started placing orders.

n

nAbout five seconds later, the order was received and she hurriedly called the other party.

n

n..

n

nRing, Ring, Ring..

n

nLin Yi’s phone rang before he could get out of the car.

n

n“Hello, are you the Didi driver?”

n

nLin Yi already knew who the person was. It was the passenger who placed the order.

n

n“It’s me, what do you want?” Lin Yi said.

n

n“I want to ask, how old are you?”

n

nHuh?

n

nWhat kind of question was that?

n

nHow old was he? Did that have anything to do with the passenger?

n

nAlthough he didn’t know what he was up to, Lin Yi still told him his age.

n

n“Twenty-four.”

n

n“Oh nice!”

n

nXia Xinyu was a little excited. She actually met someone her own age!

n

nSoon, Xia Xinyu calmed down and asked in a low voice,

n

n“I want to ask you for a favor, can you do that?”

n

n“No, I’m just a Didi Driver. I don’t provide extra services.”

n

nLin Yi had seen too much of this kind of news.

n

nThere were some perverted customers who would always making things difficult for the Didi driver or the guy outside.

n

nThey would either ask him to buy cigarettes, take out the trash, or even buy sanitary pads.

n

nLin Yi was not interested in that sort of thing.

n

n“Don’t misunderstand me. My name is Xia Xinyu. I want you to pretend to be my boyfriend and deal with my parents. I’ll give you a five-star review afterwards. What do you think?”

n

n“Uh…”

n

nLin Yi paused. This was a good idea.

n

n“On account of the five-star review, it’s a deal.”

n

n“Then it’s a deal. What’s your name?”

n

n“Lin Yi.”

n

n“Okay, my house is in Tianyi Homestead, Building 4, unit 1,1302. You can come straight here.”

n

n“Okay.”

n

nBecause Tianyi Homestead was nearby, Lin Yi arrived at Xia Xinyu’s house after about ten minutes.

n

nKnock, Knock, Knock

n

nXia Xinyu heard someone knocking on the door and opened it.

n

nShe prayed in her heart that this Didi brother was not too ugly, or else it would arouse suspicion.

n

nCreak.

n

nThe door was pulled open and Xia Xinyu froze on the spot when she saw Lin Yi.

n

nWhat, what kind of god-like beauty was this?

n

nDid she save the Earth in her previous life?

n

n“Yo, it’s Xiaoyu’s boyfriend, right?”

n

nSeeing Lin Yi standing at the door, Xia Xinyu’s mother greeted with a smile.

n

nThis young man was really good-looking. He was more than enough for her daughter.

n

nBefore Xia Xinyu could say anything, Lin Yi was pulled in.

n

n“Your name is Lin Yi, right? How long have you been with my daughter?”Xia asked.

n

n“Uh, more than half a year,” Xia Xinyu answered first.

n

n“I didn’t ask you, what are you talking about?” After scolding Xia Xinyu, Mother Xia asked again,

n

n“Young man, what do you usually do?”

n

n“I’m a driver,” Lin Yi replied.

n

n“A driver?”

n

nThe old couple’s faces changed. This didn’t seem like a decent job.

n

n“Are you a pilot? Then you should call yourself a captain.”

n

nLin Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The old couple’s imagination was quite rich.

n

n“I’m not flying a plane. I don’t have that kind of skill.” Lin Yi said

n

nThe old couple’s expressions weren’t as warm as they were before.

n

n“Are you driving for a certain boss?” Lin Yi asked

n

nThe two of them could accept it if it was for a certain boss. After all, this gig was quite attractive.

n

nHowever, this was their bottom line.

n

n“You’ve misunderstood. I’m driving for Didi, I’m a Didi driver.” Lin Yi said

n

n“Didi driver?”

n

nWhy did Xia Hongyuan’s expression suddenly change? He now looked a little ugly.

n

nHow much money could a Didi driver earn? If they were to be together in the future, how would they support their child?

n

nWould they be able to live off the wind?

n

n“That’s right, he’s a Didi driver.” Xinyu said

n

n“Dad, Mom, he’s actually making a lot of money now. Lin Yi bought all my cosmetics and jewelry for me,” Xinyu explained.

n

n“Plus, he still has some money on him. We’re planning to start a business in the future, so we won’t work for Didi forever.”

n

nHearing that, their expressions softened, but it was obvious that they weren’t very happy.

n

n“Let’s talk about this later.” Because Lin Yi was here, there were a lot of things that Xia Hongyuan still could not talk about. He planned to talk about it when there was no one else around at night.

n

n“Oh right, mom and dad, aren’t you going to a gathering? You should leave now or you’ll be late.”

n

nXia Hongyuan looked at the time and said:

n

n“Alright, let him send us there. Don’t leave either, just come with us.”

n

nThe two of them had not yet thought the matter surrounding Lin Yi through.

n

nAlthough his work was suboptimal, his looks were not bad. They had to weigh it properly before deciding which one to choose.

n

n“I don’t think it’s possible for us to go together,” Lin Yi said.

n

n“Huh? Why Not?”

n

n“My car is a two-seater. It can’t fit four people.”
