"Hey, you haven't made your move yet, have you? You must be in on it together, right? How about I give you a chance too?"

Hearing this, the young man panicked and began to back away, waving his hands frantically.

"No, no, no! You're too kind, but no thank you! You might not believe this, but even though I sat on the same Stone with him for three hours, we really don't know each other!"

"Really! I'm just passing by!"

After getting rid of the two scammers, Xia Liang followed the navigation toward the passenger's pickup point. While driving, he sent a message to the passenger, explaining that he'd run into a small problem but would arrive soon. He asked them not to worry.

It was strange, though. Despite being so delayed, the passenger didn't seem to be in any hurry. Normally, a passenger would be cursing him out by now. This one, however, was exceptionally calm, even telling Xia Liang to slow down and prioritize safety.

This made Xia Liang sigh in admiration. There really are a lot of good people in the world!

About five minutes later, Xia Liang smoothly arrived at the pickup point. He immediately saw a middle-aged woman standing by the road, phone in hand. She was obviously the passenger he was there to pick up.

Xia Liang slowed down and pulled over. He watched as the middle-aged woman walked toward him, but she didn't head for the passenger door. Instead, she walked to the front of the car, and then, with a THUMP, collapsed to the ground. A wail of pain followed.

"AAAAH! I've been hit! Owwww, it hurts so much!"

What the...?!

Meanwhile, the roar of an engine sounded from behind. Xia Liang looked back and saw the same two young men from before, now chasing him on a motorcycle.

The leader parked his motorcycle by the road, dusted himself off, and gave Xia Liang an extremely arrogant smile.

"Hahaha! Run! Let's see where you can run to! You've fallen for it now! You thought I was on the first level, but actually, I'm on the fifth! In the end, you still fell into my hands! I told you before, I'm staking my ten years of professional honor on this. This Master is seeing this scam through to the end today!"

At that moment, Xia Liang glanced at the middle-aged woman still wailing on the ground in front of his car, then at the arrogant young man by the road. He instantly understood the entire setup.

Xia Liang couldn't help but clap his hands, exclaiming, "Holy crap! That's brilliant, absolutely fantastic! I can't believe even a simple scam has such a complex plot these days. It's a real brain-burner! This routine of yours... would you call it a scam within a scam?"

In that instant, the young man felt he had washed away his previous shame and was standing tall again. He had defended his honor with his ability and wit, protecting the reputation of his title: the Air Spinning Little Overlord!

The young man stepped forward and laughed smugly. "Hmph, now you get it, don't you? You celebrated too early!"

"Let me tell you, this stretch of road has no cameras, and there are no witnesses to help you. Right now, you have only two choices: handle this through official channels or settle it privately? You choose!"

Xia Liang rubbed his chin and looked at the youth, asking, "Have you ever heard of something called a dash-cam?"

The young man sneered dismissively and waved his hand.

"Don't try to fool me. You think I'm that stupid? I checked your car carefully when I was following you earlier. You don't have a dash-cam!"

"Give it up! Just admit defeat!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Liang sighed deeply and shook his head. "Buddy, times have changed. Has it ever occurred to you that dash-cams these days don't look the way you imagine?"

As he spoke, Xia Liang snapped his fingers. The front windshield immediately lit up, playing a video of the entire incident that had just unfolded! It was the high-tech system Xiao Qianxi had installed.

Most importantly, it wasn't just recording the front; damn it, it covered the entire surroundings! You call this a dash-cam? This isn't a dash-cam, it's a 360-degree surveillance system with no blind spots! And what kind of windshield is this? It can double as a screen?! And it plays with just a snap of the fingers? What the hell is that! This isn't 'times have changed,' you've skipped a whole damn generation! What kind of ridiculous black technology is this?

At this moment, everyone except for Xia Liang was completely dumbfounded.

We thought it was a sure win, but it turns out the other guy is a cheater! He's using hacks! How are we supposed to reason with that?

Xia Liang leaned casually against the car window, a smirk playing on his lips.

"Now, it's your turn to choose. Settle this officially or privately?"

"Or, to put it more simply: pay up, or take a day trip to the police station?"

"You choose!"

The middle-aged woman was still wailing on the ground. The sound grated on the young man's nerves until he finally snapped and yelled at her.

"What are you still crying for?! Shut up! Can't you see he recorded everything? With a brain like yours, I never should have brought you into this business!"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman slowly picked herself up from the ground, looking around, completely bewildered, as if she still hadn't figured out what was going on.

The young man covered his face, feeling that the reputation of the Air Spinning Little Overlord had been utterly destroyed today.

After a long moment, he looked at the smiling Xia Liang and declared through gritted teeth, "Private settlement!"

"No problem! Scan the code or cash?"

As he spoke, Xia Liang had already displayed his payment QR code.

A moment later, Xia Liang waved at the three of them and drove away with a beaming smile, leaving a sentence hanging in the wind.

"And for the auntie who ordered the car, don't forget to leave a five-star review!"

"Otherwise, I might just come back in a couple of days to give you some more 'business'!"

A cold breeze blew past. The three of them stared at each other in the wind, finally exclaiming in unison, "What a nightmare!"

「Elsewhere, he received an order.」

Twenty minutes or so later, Xia Liang arrived at the pick-up spot.

It was inside a residential complex. When Xia Liang arrived, he noticed that many cars were already parked along the road. Their rearview mirrors were tied with red ribbons, and some even had red floral bouquets on their hoods.

Is this a wedding convoy?

When Xia Liang pulled over, the imposing black Hui Teng immediately drew everyone's attention.

Among them, a bridesmaid with long, slender legs looked at her phone, then at Xia Liang's license plate. After a long hesitation, she finally approached and asked uncertainly, "Hello, may I ask, are you the Didi I just ordered?"

Logically, if the license plate matches, it has to be him. But I just ordered a regular Didi Express... what's a Hui Teng doing here?!

"Yes, that's me. My vehicle information is at the bottom of the Didi order; you might not have looked closely. By the way, is this scheduled order for a wedding car?" Xia Liang raised an eyebrow and asked, looking puzzled.

"Yes, my friend is getting married today. Everything was ready, but one of the cars suddenly broke down this morning. We figured we'd just get a Didi Express to fill in. We didn't need a luxury car, just something to follow the procession and carry a few people."

Saying this, the woman couldn't help but give the car another thorough look and sighed in amazement.

"But I never expected this. Talk about a happy accident! I just casually placed a timed order for a Didi Express and got a car worth tens of Yuan!"

"Oh right, the charge for your car..."

[Ding, congratulations, you have triggered a task: Helping Hand.

Task description: Meet the customer's request, act as a wedding car.

Task reward: Gene Potion*1, Work Points 40.]

Xia Liang immediately nodded.

"Don't worry, it'll be the normal price listed on the order!"

"Great! Could you please wait here a moment? I'll go talk to the bride and the others. We have to put your car at the front of the line!"

With that, the bridesmaid hurried away, but not before pressing a pack of cigarettes into Xia Liang's hand.
