Chapter 14: Cannot Get Off the Bus
Chapter 14: Cannot Get Off the Bus
"Ahem!" Liu Kexin looked embarrassed. Unlike Xiao Cang, who was not here and disappeared as soon as the broadcast ended, she felt a lot of pressure facing Qin Fen's teasing!
"By the way, Brother Qin Fen, are you hungry? How about I treat you to something delicious? Let's go to Jiangdu Hotel." Liu Kexin quickly changed the subject, trying to avoid the bet by treating him.
"Jiangdu Hotel, tsk tsk tsk." The most luxurious hotel in the country, the cost of a night starts at hundreds of thousands, something he never dared to dream of before.
Seeing Qin Fen's expression, Liu Kexin thought she had a chance, but to her surprise, Qin Fen retorted, "Do you think my current net worth is worth less than a meal?"
“You…” Liu Kexin was speechless. Indeed, for Qin Fen, who was worth hundreds of billions, it would be easy for him to buy the entire Jiangdu Hotel, let alone have a meal.
Without thinking, she looked at Qian Duoduo with teary eyes, seeking help.
Seeing her precious child being teased like this, Qian Duoduo slowly stood up from the sofa and said softly, "Alright, I haven't had breakfast yet, let's eat first."
"Alright!" Qin Fen was still relatively lenient with Qian Duoduo. After all, his current wealth was entirely dependent on Qian Zheng. As Qian Zheng's daughter, if Qian Duoduo were to speak ill of him to her father, Qian Zheng might turn his back on her and strip her of everything. After all, an illegitimate child is never as good as a biological one.
This also served as a wake-up call for Qin Fen.
He seems so successful now, but he's still living under someone else's roof. It's truly good to have your own talent.
He couldn't help but put away his teasing smile and appeared serious.
Liu Kexin was surprised by Qin Fen's change in expression, fearing that Qin Fen was up to something, and she was also very uneasy, so she dared not say anything.
Qian Duoduo seemed lost in thought, and the three of them went downstairs in complete silence. Since Qian Duoduo's supercar only had two seats, Liu Kexin went to get her car first. Despite being a superstar, Liu Kexin was actually a very low-key and down-to-earth person, unlike other celebrities who buy all sorts of luxury cars and have dozens of bodyguards with them, going out in a glamorous manner. Liu Kexin's car was just an ordinary Volkswagen. Liu Kexin took the initiative to be the driver and drove the car to the two of them. Qian Duoduo got into the passenger seat without hesitation, and Qin Fen could only open the rear door and get in.
As the car started moving, Qin Fen looked out at the fleeting prosperity outside the window, smelled the alluring perfume emanating from the car, and listened to Qian Duoduo and Liu Kexin chatting idly by themselves. He suddenly felt so out of place.
Even if you suddenly become rich, you're still two different people!
Qin Fen sighed, deciding to just let things take their course. He stretched lazily, preparing to take a nap.
Suddenly, the car braked sharply, and Liu Kexin let out a soft cry, startling Qin Fen.
Qin Fen saw the two women staring at each other in front of him and quickly leaned out to ask, "What's wrong with you two?"
"Look!" Liu Kexin raised her arm and pointed towards the front of the car.
Qin Fen looked over, his face full of surprise. In front of the car, an old man was lying on the hood, then his expression twisted, and he slowly shrank under the car.
"A staged accident?" The thought immediately flashed through Qin Fen's mind.
Because Liu Kexin was driving very steadily, there was a traffic light just a few meters ahead, and the speed had already dropped to almost 20 km/h. A sudden stop would bring the car to a complete stop, making it impossible for her to hit anyone.
Sure enough, just as Qin Fen had this thought, he could only look out from the inside. The car window, which he couldn't see from the outside, was violently pounded on, and loud shouts rang out from outside: "Hey you guys, get out of the car right now! You hit someone, you know that?"
As the driver, Liu Kexin instinctively wanted to get out of the car to check on the elderly person, regardless of whether she had hit anyone or not.
Qian Duoduo suddenly reached out and grasped Liu Kexin's hand, then shook her head.
Liu Kexin looked puzzled.
Just as Qian Duoduo was about to explain, Qin Fen noticed that many people on the sidewalk outside the car had already seen the commotion and were taking pictures with their phones. After a moment's thought, he said seriously, "Kexin, Duoduo, you are both public figures. You can't get out of the car rashly in this kind of situation, or it will cause a storm on the internet."
"Ah!" Upon hearing Qin Fen's words, Liu Kexin finally realized what was going on. She was a rising star who was currently very popular. If she got out of the car and someone took a picture and posted it online, regardless of whether she had hit anyone or not, with the help of malicious people, white could be turned into black. Her career might collapse instantly like a magnitude 13 earthquake, plunging her into an abyss from which she would never be able to climb out again.
Qian Duoduo's identity is even more sensitive. She is the daughter of the richest man in China, and her fame is no less than that of Liu Kexin. Moreover, her unconventional and flamboyant personality means that she has many critics. If someone takes advantage of the situation, not only her, but even Qian Zheng will be affected.
Sometimes a small thing can have a butterfly effect, creating a huge crater.
"If I'd known, I should have driven a sports car," Qian Duoduo muttered to herself, taking out her phone to make a call and find someone to resolve the matter.
The window was being pounded on incessantly. The man outside was yelling and screaming like he'd lost his parents: "Are you fucking getting out of the car or not? You've hit someone, you know? If you don't get out, I'll smash all your cars!"
Qian Duoduo's face was gloomy. She had never been treated like this before. She gripped the door handle and was about to get out of the car. Anyway, she was a controversial figure, which was a double-edged sword. If she handled things well, she would not only avoid being disliked, but would also gain a lot of fans.
Seeing this, Qin Fen grabbed Qian Duoduo's shoulder with one hand. Qian Duoduo turned his head and looked at him with a surprised expression. Qin Fen took a breath, exhaled, and said with a smile, "Let me do it! Your old man is gone. I finally managed to turn my life around. Now I'm going to have to endure the scorching sun again."
Qian Duoduo remained silent, so Qin Fen opened the back door and got out, closing the door behind him.
Watching Qin Fen get out of the car, Qian Duoduo's expression gradually became serious. Seeing that Qin Fen had already walked to the opposite side of the big man outside the car, and that several men were vaguely surrounding him, she still dialed the phone in her hand.
Outside the car, Qin Fen looked at the man in front of him, who was half a head shorter than him but appeared quite obese, and simply stared at him coldly.
The man felt uneasy under the stare. After all, he was in the wrong, so he could only roar fiercely to bolster his courage: "Kid, you hit my dad. You're not going anywhere until you pay me 10 or 8 yuan today."
"Oh! Is this your dad? He looks like he's about to die. Why don't you rush him to the hospital? Is a few tens of thousands of yuan more important than your father's life? Looks like you're an unfilial son! Or are you trying to scam us? Your acting is terrible! You can't even cry. At least smear some dog pee on your face to make it look like you're really crying!"
Qin Fen analyzed the whole matter word by word with witty remarks.
Sure enough, the onlookers who were initially indignant and pointing at the car owner for hitting someone suddenly realized what had happened.
Yes! This man doesn't look like his father was hit by a car at all.
