Why Can't We?
"Jingyi, I took a taxi and forgot my wallet to pay the bill, please save me, I'm in front of the hotel … …" Chentian said quickly, afraid that Sun Jingyi would hang up on him.
Huh? Jingyi heard Chentian's words, and her heart almost bloomed with joy. You didn't bring your wallet? You didn't bring your wallet, did you? Your wallet is in Lin Yi's hands!
But wasn't Lin Yi's wallet with Chentian? How could he not have the money to pay the bill? At that thought, Sun Jingyi pretended to be angry. "Wu Chentian, stop acting like a clown. You took Lin Yi's wallet, didn't you? How could you not have the money to pay the bill? "
"That money … I tipped it to the doorman … …" Chentian said, feeling wronged.
"Do you think I'd believe that?" Sun Jingyi said, feeling good. Who told you to be so cocky? You're good now, aren't you? "I'm busy. Bye!"
Sun Jingyi hung up without hesitation and turned off her phone, leaving Chentian to his own devices.
"Jingyi … Jingyi … …" Chentian called out a couple of times, but the phone was already hung up.
He called again, only to hear a notification saying "The number you have dialed is currently unavailable" … Chentian wanted to cry, but no tears came out … …
"Master, bro, bro, you saw it … My friend doesn't believe me … …" Chentian said bitterly.
"Stop pretending, I don't even know if you called him or not, and you tipped him to the doorman. You're lying, keep lying." The taxi driver said with disdain. "I've seen too many liars like you. Do you want to talk to the police?"
"Don't … Don't … Bro, let me think about it!" Chentian quickly waved his hands. It'd be too embarrassing if people knew that the young master of House Wu couldn't afford a taxi fare if he went to the police station for something like this!
The only person he knew in Songjiang was Sun Jingyi … All of a sudden, Chentian remembered that his aunt and uncle seemed to have brought grandpa here for treatment … But he'd just come back and didn't remember their phone number- it'd be embarrassing if he called home to ask about something like this …
With that in mind, Chentian could only say, "Bro, look at this phone of mine, it's an iPhone 4, and it cost four to five thousand when I bought it. Why don't I give it to you as a fare?"
"Apple 4?" The driver looked at Chentian's phone. "Is this for real? Knockoffs are worth around two to three hundred yuan. It's already pretty good if a second-hand one is worth a few dozen yuan! "
"Bro, this is the real deal, take a look if you don't believe me!" Chentian said as he handed the phone to the driver.
The taxi driver fiddled with it for a long time before nodding reluctantly. "I'll believe you for the time being. That's all. You can go now …"
Chentian got out of the car with endless humiliation. When had he ever been so down and out? Fuck, it was all because of that Lin Yi bastard. He needed to investigate him and teach him a lesson …
Some people were unlucky because of their own reasons, but they just had to put the blame on others … Chentian was one of those people- he felt that if it wasn't for Lin Yi, his relationship with Sun Jingyi wouldn't have been this stiff, and he wouldn't have forgotten to bring his wallet either … Eh? Wait, that's not right. He paid for the cab when he went to the bar, and his wallet was still there. Could it be that he forgot it in the cab?
… …
At first, Mengyao was still bothered by the fact that Lin Yi was hitting on an adult, but when Chentian came, she started to see what was going on!
Lin Yi was being used as a shield by that woman! Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she was a little pissed off. What right did he have to do that? He was her shield, and now he was being used by another woman? What was going on?
But Mengyao couldn't do anything about it, and Yushu, on the other hand, looked like she was watching a good show. Mengyao had no choice but to watch Lin Yi put on a show …
She couldn't help but call Lin Yi a money-grubber when she saw him take a thousand kuai in the end.
"Yao Yao, I think Shield Bro's really good!" Yushu was a lot more observant than Mengyao. "That wallet in his hand, he got it from that guy in the suit!"
"......" Mengyao was a little speechless. "You're quite observant, aren't you? Tell him to hand it over when we get home and confiscate all his illegal earnings. "
"Hehe, alright!" Yushu nodded in agreement.
"I'll leave it to you then." Mengyao gave the task to Yushu after seeing how enthusiastic she was.
"Ah?" Yushu blinked. "I say … Um, Yao Yao, we haven't ordered anything to drink yet. We were just watching the show. Maybe we should get something to drink first?"
Once again, Yushu used her specialty to change the topic.
"Alright … …" Mengyao, of course, knew what Yushu was thinking. But she was just saying it casually. Mengyao didn't care about that little bit of money Lin Yi had. She only said that because she was angry at Lin Yi.
She didn't forget to make some extra money while she was protecting herself at night.
Yushu called the waiter over and ordered a couple of drinks from the menu. They were all weird names, and the two had never been to a bar before. They didn't know if the drinks were good or not.
The waiter noted down the two's orders, hesitating for a moment. It was obvious that this was the two's first time at a bar, and they didn't know what to make of the drinks.
"Is there anything else?" Yushu looked at the waiter, puzzled. Did they have to pay in advance here?
"Ladies, do you need someone to chat with you?" The waiter could tell that it was the two's first time, so he decided to give it a try. After all, there were quite a lot of people who came to the bar looking for male attendants.
"No need … …"
"Sure … …"
Between Yushu and Mengyao, one of them saying "no need" and the other saying "okay", took the waitress by surprise.
"Yao Yao, you … …" Yushu looked at Mengyao, not understanding why the girl was looking for someone to chat with. Wasn't that a "duck"?
"Get us a handsome one!" Mengyao ordered the waiter.
"Alright, please wait a moment." The waiter nodded and retreated respectfully. He thought to himself, 'These two innocent girls really came for this. It seems like you really can't judge a book by its cover …'
Just like that pervert from before … … And these two ladies … … The waiter hated himself for not being handsome enough, or he'd have done it himself.
"Yao Yao, why did you call a handsome guy?" Yushu was starting to panic after the waiter left. "Yao Yao, you're not thinking of trying the special service, are you? You can't, you're still young … What if you bleed out … … "
