Chapter 517: Chapter 517 Ride-hailing Maybach_1
From stepping off the high-speed train to exiting the station and then standing by the roadside...
Jiang Lu kept a stern face and didn’t give Bai Xiaosheng a warm welcome, but she also stopped finding faults with him.
She discovered that although this guy seemed gentle and polite, he was actually a master at arguing—calm and unruffled, able to leave others speechless without using a single foul word.
On the high-speed train, she had learned her lesson well, so naturally, she wasn’t going to ask for trouble.
Luran flashed Bai Xiaosheng an apologetic smile.
Even someone as slow as he could feel somewhat embarrassed by Jiang Lu’s attitude.
But Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t care less.
Jiang Lu tried hailing several taxis, but they were all occupied, which left her a bit irritated. "You two grown men, how can you just stand there staring blankly? Don’t you feel ashamed at all?"
"I’ll do it, I’ll do it! Jiang Lu, take a break," Luran hurriedly said.
Jiang Lu huffed and walked aside.
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head in disapproval.
It seemed that Ziyu New Science and Technology didn’t really treasure Luran, not bothering to send a car to pick him up. And the assistant they paired him with, she wasn’t an assistant at all—she was more like a tyrant.
No, I can’t let such a talented person suffer; I must poach him and offer him better treatment!
At that moment, Bai Xiaosheng felt fully justified in his intentions.
The guilt he had previously felt about ruthlessly headhunting dissolved into nothing.
Luran attempted to hail a taxi several times, but to no avail.
At this hour, taxis were all full—just our luck.
"How about I call a ride-hailing service? It might be more convenient," Bai Xiaosheng suggested with a smile, fiddling with his phone since earlier.
"Ride-hailing service? Isn’t that just an unlicensed cab? Pfft!" Jiang Lu said with disdain, "You take unlicensed cabs often, and you say you’re our boss’s friend? I’m very doubtful!"
"What’s wrong with ride-hailing? Plenty of rich people use them for fun. Call a few ride-hailing cars, and who knows—you might even snag a wealthy husband," Bai Xiaosheng replied, still smiling.
"You must be dreaming," Jiang Lu scoffed, "You people who ride unlicensed taxis all the time, how often do you see a luxury car? Let me tell you, if you can get a luxury car through a ride-hailing service, I..."
Jiang Lu hadn’t finished speaking when she heard the sound of brakes next to her. She turned her head to look, and her eyes nearly popped out.
A black Maybach S-Class worth two million smoothly pulled up alongside her.
Is it here already? That was fast. Can’t be real, right?
Jiang Lu was a little slack-jawed and incredulous.
"I’ve been calling for a car since we got off the high-speed train, impressed?" Bai Xiaosheng said as he smiled broadly, continuing to play with his phone.
It’s not even your car, what are you showing off for?
Jiang Lu gave Bai Xiaosheng a disdainful look and pursed her lips.
The car window rolled down, and a tall, thin man looked out at them.
"Who called for the car? I’m here!"
A real luxury car had arrived, and it was a Maybach.
Jiang Lu was still somewhat disbelieving, her beautiful eyes almost bulging.
"The car’s here, let’s go," Bai Xiaosheng said with a grin, heading to the passenger seat.
"Hey, you, get in the back!" Jiang Lu brooked no argument, pushing Bai Xiaosheng aside and hurriedly opening the door to sit in the passenger seat.
A Maybach S-Class, wow!
Jiang Lu looked greedily at the car’s interior.
Sitting in the front, she could enjoy and experience the luxury car to the fullest. Plus, when she returned to the office, she could impress everyone with the figure of Jiang Lu stepping out of a luxury car—it would be a shock to them all!
Jiang Lu couldn’t help but daydream, feeling ecstatic.
You have to understand, even their boss’s car wasn’t nearly as high-end.
"Riding in your car isn’t going to cost us a lot, right, handsome?" Jiang Lu suddenly thought of something and quickly asked, her eyes sparkling and sending flirtatious glances at the young man driving.
"No, just pay whatever you like; any amount is fine," the driver replied with a gentle smile.
So generous!
Right, would a man driving a Maybach be short on cash?
They probably just do it for fun!
Jiang Lu couldn’t help but size up the driver surreptitiously.
He was in his thirties, quite young, but to be able to drive a Maybach at such a young age and have the leisure to play at being a rideshare driver, he must come from a wealthy family!
"Handsome, hello, my name is Jiang Lu. What should I call you?" Jiang Lu’s voice was sweet and sticky.
"Oh, suddenly it’s so cold." A teasing voice came from the back seat.
The speaker, of course, was Bai Xiaosheng.
Luran had also gotten into the car and was curiously examining the luxury car’s interior.
"Hey, listen here, if you don’t speak up, no one will think you’re mute!" Jiang Lu snorted coldly and turned around to glare fiercely at Bai Xiaosheng, "Look at yourself, and then look at this handsome guy. He’s only a few years older than you and he’s driving a Maybach! Have you ever ridden in one? If not, then shut your mouth!"
After scolding Bai Xiaosheng, Jiang Lu turned back to the driver, her voice warm and gentle, "Sorry about that, this guy is not worldly. So, handsome, what should I call you?"
"My surname is Feng," the driver replied, glancing at the rearview mirror.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled faintly, shaking his head almost imperceptibly.
How could he possibly have really ordered a ride-share? In fact, on the high-speed train, as soon as Bai Xiaosheng guessed that they were about to arrive, he had already sent a message to Feng to pick him up.
Feng had been nearby the whole time.
When Feng received the message from Bai Xiaosheng, he also felt quite bemused.
Mr. Bai told him to pretend to be a rideshare driver, what was he hinting at?
However, since the boss had made arrangements, Feng naturally followed them.
Right now, pretending not to know each other and with a man and a woman joining, this woman was somewhat attractive. Was Mr. Bai planning to play a game of prince and Cinderella with her?
Feng thought to himself.
But, this woman chattered non-stop all the way, showing boundless enthusiasm toward him, and no matter what he said, she would laugh till she was trembling like a flower branch!
Feng was starting to feel a little uncomfortable!
If Mr. Bai’s woman took a liking to himself, that would really escalate the joke!
Every time this woman complimented him, she always managed to slip in a subtle jab at Bai Xiaosheng. Feng responded vaguely, with a forced smile, honestly wanting to slap her.
You really are blind!
Mr. Bai has such an exceptional presence and aura, and you didn’t even notice him, talking nonsense with me!
Oh, it’s because I’m driving a luxury car...
This car belongs to Mr. Bai!
Feng was genuinely on edge driving this entire way.
Bai Xiaosheng ignored Jiang Lu completely but was happily chatting with Luran.
Luran, while talking, noticed Jiang Lu’s boundless enthusiasm for the driving man and couldn’t hide the dim look on his face.
After all, he had once been fond of Jiang Lu, even pursued her, and was almost successful. If he had become the director, maybe it really could have happened.
Luran felt somewhat discouraged.
But in the end, the boss said he lacked management skills and was better suited for a technical position where he could play to his strengths, casually promoting his own son instead. Luran had no objections to this, as he himself disliked managing people and preferred coding and development.
But still, to be ignored by Jiang Lu wounded his male pride.
Luran was somewhat distracted.
Bai Xiaosheng also noticed and couldn’t help but think, "Luran, if only you would come to Zhongjing Media, I would make you the director with a monthly salary of thirty thousand and have you coming and going in luxury cars! You’ve lost face in front of one woman, I’ll help you regain it in front of a hundred!"
Of course, Bai Xiaosheng would not say these things out loud.
He just glanced at Jiang Lu indifferently.
This woman was quite materialistic and also couldn’t recognize a real gem!
"Oh, we’re here, that’s our company up front!" Jiang Lu excitedly pointed ahead, and then with a sweet smile said to Feng, "Handsome, would you like to come to my company for a cup of coffee?"
Feng didn’t respond.
Inside, he cursed furiously: You fool, you’ve been badmouthing Mr. Bai the whole way and now you’re asking me to go have coffee with you?
I’d rather have tea with your uncle!
