In the barbeque shop.
The girl turned her anger into appetite and said that she wanted to treat Qin Luo to a big meal. In the end, after the skewers were served, she ate without a word. She did not care about her image. The way she grimaced made Qin Luo wonder if she had mistaken the skewers in her hands for him.
Qin Luo happily ate the kidney. He wasn't too poor, but it had been a long time since he had eaten barbecue, especially since he hadn't eaten with a woman for a long time.
Thinking of what happened in the car, although he did not know how the girl was feeling, he was indeed in a good mood. He smiled and asked her,"Hey, I still don't know your name.”
"None of your business!" The girl mumbled as she ate.
Qin Luo didn't mind. He picked up his wine glass and mocked her.
So, she also raised her glass and clinked it with Qin Luo's. She glared at Qin Luo as she downed the beer in one gulp and then began to wolf down the food.
Qin Luo couldn't help but complain,"I can't tell if I'm craving barbecue or you're craving barbecue."”
The girl glared at him again and gritted her teeth."This old lady has never been so unlucky in my life. Anyway, I'm going to be cheated by you. Of course, this old lady wants to eat back my money!”
"Oh…as long as you're happy."
"Humph."
The two of them chatted casually. Most of the time, they were eating and occasionally drinking together. The atmosphere actually became inexplicably harmonious.
After another glass of wine, the woman suddenly said,"Zhang Manni."
"Ah?" Qin Luo blinked in confusion.
"My name is Zhang Manni."
"Oh, my name is Qin Luo."
"The name is not bad, and he looks like a human dog. Why doesn't he do anything?”
"If you had nagged less when you got in the car, I wouldn't have been angry with you.”
"Petty men are the most useless.”
Zhang Manni rolled her eyes.
She originally wanted to leave after dinner. After all, tonight's experience was not very pleasant. However, after three rounds of drinking, she was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, she was a little interested in Qin Luo.
She sized up Qin Luo and asked,""You look like you're only in your early twenties. Why would you hire a car online at such a young age?”
Qin Luo smiled." He's already 24, not in his early 20s. Besides, no one has ever stipulated that only middle-aged greasy uncles can drive an online taxi."”
"You're much worse than the middle-aged greasy uncle.”
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Tsk."
This was the first time Zhang Manni had met such a shameless person. She was so angry that her teeth itched.
Qin Luo looked at her with interest. He thought for a moment and said,"I don't have much talent myself. After graduating from university, I was too lazy to work according to the rules. I don't like the restrictions of other companies, so I came to hire a car online. I can run if I want to, and I can rest if I don't want to.”
"That's true, but you have to work to make a living. How much can you earn doing this?”
"About ten thousand a month."
Zhang Manni's face darkened. She suddenly did not want to talk to Qin Luo anymore.
She worked her ass off every month, but her current position was only 14,000 yuan a month. Half of it was paid for rent, and the rest was spent on cosmetics and clothes. She looked glamorous, but in fact, she could not compare to Qin Luo, the driver.
At the thought of this, she felt a deep sense of defeat.
Qin Luo saw through her thoughts and explained,""Shanghai isn't like other cities, after all. You can earn more by hiring a car online. Some of the more hardworking ones can earn about 20,000 yuan, but nearly half of them have paid the car rent. Moreover, driving for a long time is very harmful to the body.”
Zhang Manni felt a little better and said,""That's quite hard, but why do you still have to pay the car rent? Wouldn't it be better to save more money to buy a car?”
Qin Luo shook his head." It's not difficult to buy a car. What's difficult is the license plate in Shanghai. Most of the online taxi drivers rent cars, so they can only pay rent.”
"What about you? He had to pay a few thousand yuan a month?”
"I don't need it. The car is my own.”
"Then you won't have much left after renting a house every month, right?”
"My house is also my own."
The corner of Zhang Manni's eyes twitched. She downed a glass of beer in one gulp. She had just calmed down a little, but she lost her balance in an instant. She glared at Qin Luo and gritted her teeth."So you're a rich second-generation heir experiencing life.”
The word "rich second generation" made Qin Luo's eyes dim slightly. He silently took a sip of wine.
Zhang Manni sensed that something was wrong with his expression and asked,""What's wrong with you?"
Qin Luo pondered for a moment before saying,""The house and car were left to me by my parents, and they're the only things I have now.”
"Your parents…" Zhang Manni was stunned.
" He died in a car accident two years ago," Qin Luo said calmly.
Zhang Manni's expression changed. Guilt and panic appeared on her face. Even her voice became much softer."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring it up.”
Qin Luo smiled." It's nothing. It's been a long time since I've sat down to eat and chat with someone, so I couldn't help but think about it. It has nothing to do with you. Besides, it's been two years, and I've already digested my emotions. Now, I'm still living a relaxed life with a car and a house. Isn't it very comfortable?”
Grieving past experiences could always arouse people's sympathy and emotions. Zhang Manni's previous resentment towards Qin Luo suddenly disappeared.
Looking at Qin Luo's tranquil smile, she knew that there must be a sadness hidden under that smile that had not completely faded. For a moment, she could not help but want to know more about Qin Luo, so she asked,"Then do you plan to keep going online?”
Qin Luo thought for a moment and explained," I started to go online to hire a car after graduating from university. At that time, my parents had just passed away and I was at a loss about the future. I didn't know what to do, and I didn't learn any skills in university. I thought that I still had a car at home, so I went online to hire a car. As for the future... I haven't thought about it yet.”
Zhang Manni said slowly," It's pretty good. At least you don't have to pay rent or car rental. Not to mention other online taxi drivers, even most white-collar workers can't compare to you. It's indeed very comfortable…Anyway, it's fine as long as you feel comfortable.”
"What about you? How are you doing in Shanghai?" Qin Luo asked with a smile.”
" Don't mention it," Zhang Manni sighed." It's so annoying…"
