Chapter 749: Get into Trouble
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Yang Ming hadnât seen Zhao Ying for many days, but she was getting more and more beautiful. In Zhao Yingâs present self, Yang Ming couldnât notice a hint that she used to be a teacher. When Zhao Ying walked alongside Yang Ming. Yang Ming was somehow like a young man who just entered into society, while Zhao Ying was more like a university student.
âSister Ying.â Yang Ming saw Zhao Ying from a distance. He opened the window and shouted to her.
âYang Ming! You got here so soon? I just came outâŠâ Zhao Ying ran a few steps and went to the university entrance. Because it was still a holiday, the schoolâs gate wasnât open, and the car couldnât enter.
âI just took Mengyan home. It is not too far from here. There is no traffic jam at this time.â Yang Ming said, âGet in the car. You donât even have a hat and a scarf. Arenât you afraid of the cold?â
âWho said that I didnât bring it?â Zhao Ying opened the zipper of her down jacket. She revealed the scarf tied inside and then smiled, âAs for the hat, isnât there one at the back of the down jacket?â
Yang Ming looked at Zhao Yingâs appearance like a little girl. He couldnât help but shake his head. Zhao Ying, the teacher in his memory, had gradually become blurred. Now Zhao Ying was the image of a neighbor sister.
Without the ident.i.ty of the teachers and students, it was more natural for the two people to talk and make jokes.
âSister Ying, have you ever thought about getting into a relations.h.i.+p with a boyfriend?â Yang Ming started the car and pretended to be casual. âAfter all, itâs not a long-term solution to keep bluffing.â
To be honest, it wasnât that Yang Ming didnât feel anything for Zhao Ying. The heart-warming night was still fresh in Yang Ming memory. Yang Mingâs feeling toward Zhao Ying was the same as Chen Mengyan at the time. However, at that time, Zhao Ying decided to reject him rationally, so that Yang Ming didnât dare to go any further. Zhao Ying could only suppress this feeling in her heart.
â Ah ?â Zhao Ying heard Yang Mingâs words. She was clearly caught off guard and said unnaturally, âWhy⊠do you say so?â
âNothing. I just thought that⊠you arenât in a relations.h.i.+p yet⊠Do you have abnormal psychology?â Yang Ming wouldnât tell the truth. He could only bluff about it.
âYou are abnormal!â Zhao Ying was angry after hearing it. âHow am I abnormal?â
âYou seem like itâŠâ Yang Ming continued, âAt that time, I wanted to kiss you. Why did you reject me?â
Today, Yang Ming spoke many flirtatious words. In fact, it was because of w.a.n.g Xiaoyanâs words which ignited Yang Mingâs feelings again.
Zhao Ying didnât expect Yang Ming to mention the incident. Her face suddenly turned red. This was one of Zhao Yingâs most regrettable things so far. Her hesitation at the beginning caused her own embarra.s.sment.
If⊠If I could have been brave during that time and not think about the secular concept⊠Then, the situation would be reversed. It shouldnât be Chen Mengyan getting angry at me, but I should be angry with Chen Mengyan insteadâŠ
However, then again, Zhao Ying just thought about it. She couldnât do it.
âIn the beginning, I was your teacher. How can you do this? Also, arenât you treating Chen Mengyan unfairly?â Zhao Ying calmed herself down and spoke.
In the beginning? Yang Mingâs heart fluttered. What does Zhao Yingâs âin the beginningâ mean? Is it alright now when the two of us donât have the teacher-student relations.h.i.+p?
Yang Ming pretended to focus on driving. He secretly used his power to observe Zhao Yingâs expression. When Yang Ming noticed that Zhao Ying had no particular expression, he couldnât help but be disappointed. Maybe I overthought it?
In fact, Zhao Ying just pretended to be calm. Since it is the past, it wonât happen a second time⊠But the kiss during rock climbing that time, what did it mean? Unintentional? Intentional?
Perhaps, after that unintentional kiss, what could happen again was interrupted by the arrival of Chen Mengyan. Since it was fate, Zhao Ying could only sigh silently.
When Yang Ming came to the highway, he had learned his lesson and became smarter. He first observed the road conditions and the weather, so that any further traffic collisions wouldnât happen again.
Fortunately, todayâs weather was clear, and the number of cars wasnât many.
âHow did you talk to your mom about me before? I donât want to blow my cover later.â Yang Ming asked.
âI said that youâre a cla.s.smate in university.â Zhao Ying said, âIt shouldnât be exposed. Anyway, youâre indeed a student of Song Jiang Industry University. Besides, we are quite familiar with each other.â
âThat is true, but what did you say about my age difference?â Yang Ming nodded.
âI said you are the same age as me. Anyway, you donât look like you are younger than me.â Zhao Ying said with a smile, âYou are quick-witted with your words. I believe you can settle my mother.â
âItâs easy to settle. Iâm afraid that your mother will accept me. She will force me to be her real son-in-law. What should I do then?â Yang Ming said shamelessly.
â Ah , my mom is very pickyâŠâ When she said this, Zhao Ying had some guilty conscience. She was very familiar with her momâs character. Her mother, a serious money wors.h.i.+pper, would probably agree without opening her mouth after seeing Yang Mingâs car.
The plane landed in Donghai International Airport. Zhao Daquan and w.a.n.g Guifen walked out of the domestic arrival hall exit with their suitcases.
âThat woman! Donât go!â There was a sharp shout.
w.a.n.g Guifen and Zhao Daquan were all surprised, but they didnât think that it was for them. They didnât know anyone in Donghai.
âIâm calling you. Do you hear me?â w.a.n.g Guifen took two more steps and was stunned from behind.
w.a.n.g Guifen was surprised. She turned around and saw a young man who was holding a cigarette pulling her luggage.
âWhat are you doing?â w.a.n.g Guifen glared. She said it in a displeased tone. Although this young man didnât look like a good person, in broad daylight, w.a.n.g Guifen didnât believe the young man could do anything to her.
âWhat? You sc.r.a.ped my car. Do you want to go just like that?â said the young man as he bared his teeth and pointed at the black car behind him.
âI sc.r.a.ped your car? When did I sc.r.a.pe it? Why didnât I realize it?â w.a.n.g Guifen thought, Did I meet a scammer?
âFine. Donât say that I framed you!â The young man took w.a.n.g Guifenâs luggage and walked to the back. How could w.a.n.g Guifen have greater strength than the young man? She could only be dragged away by him.
âLook at it yourself!â The young man pointed at the scratch on the car and said in anger.
âWhy do you say that Iâm the one who scratched it? How come I didnât know?â When w.a.n.g Guifen looked at the car, she knew that it wasnât cheap. For this kind of car, who would know how much it would cost for a paint scratch? Even if she sc.r.a.ped it, why would she admit it?
The young man didnât answer. He put w.a.n.g Guifenâs luggage on the ground, and then said, âIs it still not clear?â
When w.a.n.g Guifen saw it, she was dumbfounded. Sure enough, the height of her luggage was the same as that scratch mark of the car. Moreover, the exterior of the suitcase was parallel to the scratch. There was a protruding metal buckle. As w.a.n.g Guifen looked at it carefully, there were still some paint fragments on the metal buckleâŠ
This time, she had to admit it. The truth was in front of her. She didnât have the right to argue.
âWe will compensateâŠâ Zhao Daquan also understood at this moment that it wasnât that someone deliberately deceived them, but that they unintentionally scratched the otherâs car.
âI donât know. Iâll have to call and ask, but it canât be settled without thirty to fifty thousand yuan,â said the young man.
âWhat? Thirty to fifty thousand yuan? Are you cheating me?â w.a.n.g Guifen was reluctant immediately. She wasnât a one-year-old child. How would a scratch of paint cost thirty to fifty thousand yuan? When she went for grocery downstairs usually, she heard her acquaintances in her neighborhood say that a paint scratch cost only a matter of one hundred to two hundred yuan. This fellow just asked for thirty to fifty thousand?
âLook at it clearly. This is the Rolls Royce Phantom!â The young man snorted and said, âThis car needs to be sent back to Beijing for paint repair. It canât be sprayed locally! I would say it is already less with just thirty or fifty thousand. If our boss knew his car was scratched, he might scold me!â
w.a.n.g Guifen heard about Rolls Royce and knew that this was the worldâs top luxury car. She couldnât help but be shocked. w.a.n.g Guifen had inadvertently sc.r.a.ped such a good car. But even if it was a good car, w.a.n.g Guifen didnât think that it would be that expensive. Besides, didnât every car need spray paint? What was the difference with normal paint? She decided that the person in front of her was blackmailing her, so she said, âOkay, I also understand what you think. Donât you just want to have more money? Fine. I will give you two hundred yuan or else forget about it. I will call the police which suits me more!â
âTwo hundred yuan? What an international joke!?â The young man snorted, âCall the police? Well, you broke my things without compensation. Letâs see what the police would say!â
âWho is afraid of who?!â w.a.n.g Guifen thought that the young man was deliberately acting tough. She was concerned as she took out the cell phone and dialed the police, âh.e.l.lo, I want to call the police⊠Yes, Iâm at the international airport. When I came out, I accidentally scratched a car. In the end, the driver of the car asked me to pay compensation of thirty to fifty thousand yuan⊠I suspect he is a scammer⊠Alright, then Iâll be waiting for youâŠâ
After the phone call, w.a.n.g Guifen looked at the young man proudly and said, âThe police comrade said that you might be a scammer who created the accident intentionally. If you understand your situation, you should drive the car away. Otherwise, you will have a good time!â
âIâm a scammer? Ha , what a joke! Then you wait. When the police come, letâs see if you wonât pay me!â said the young man with a grin.
It didnât take long for a police car to come over. The speed of the police in the provincial capital was fast. A police station was near the airport. Moreover, as an international friendâs pa.s.sage, the international airport was also relatively strong in combating these frauds.
âIs it you both who called the police?â A policeman got out of the car. He asked w.a.n.g Guifen and the others.
âItâs me. Itâs me. Police comrade, look at it. Itâs such a small scratchâŠâ w.a.n.g Guifen pointed at the scratches on the car.
â Ah âŠâ The police naturally recognized a Rolls Royce and knew the value of the car. So, he really was speechless at this moment. He couldnât say how much it cost for spray painting this kind of top luxury car, but if it were the original factory paint, it wouldnât be cheap.
