After leaving Xia Mingyue's office, Ye Xiao pondered to himself, what's going on here? How is it that what Jiang Miaoke said to me and what she told Xia Mingyue are two different things?

She clearly told me it was a great dream, but when it got to Xia Mingyue, it turned into a nightmare? It's really a bit unbelievable.

No matter how hard I think about it, I can't figure it out.

When I got downstairs, my phone rang. I thought it was Jiang Miaoke calling impatiently, but unexpectedly, it was Fang Jing's name on the screen.

Ye Xiao immediately answered the phone with a laugh, saying, "Assistant Fang, what's up?"

"Ye Xiao, can you please drop the 'assistant' part? Do you know how nauseating it sounds to me?" Fang Jing said, trembling with anger.

Ye Xiao deliberately said with some helplessness, "But I like calling you that, what should I do?"

Fang Jing snorted and said, "Ming Yue asked me to tell you, if you want to drive, come up and get the key. Of course, the logistics department also has cars, and you can just pick one and drive."

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "Oh right, I'm now the deputy general manager and should have a designated car. However, I won't use the general manager's car, to avoid complicating things when you need to use it. I'll call Li Shengrong later."

"Suit yourself!" Fang Jing then hung up the phone.

Ye Xiao looked at the phone that had been hung up, smiled slightly, and then dialed Li Shengrong's number.

"Mr. Ye!" Li Shengrong answered the phone and immediately said respectfully.

Nowadays, Li Shengrong truly revered Ye Xiao, because he's been quite close to Ye Xiao these days. Today, after Ye Xiao was appointed as deputy general manager, Liuu Yang, Zhang Jiang, and those originally high-ranking directors actually started to take Li Shengrong seriously and proactively greeted him.

Li Shengrong knows it's all because of Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao didn't think much about it and said, "Director Li, I need to go out for a while. I heard Assistant Fang say that you manage the company's cars?"

"Yes, Mr. Ye, where are you now? I'll drive it to you," Li Shengrong said obsequiously.

Ye Xiao said, "Just tell me where it is, I'll drive it myself."

"Mr. Ye, you must have just gone downstairs. I'll be right down," said Li Shengrong and hung up the call.

Ye Xiao looked at the phone that had been hung up, suddenly a bit dumbfounded, what was Li Shengrong up to?

Not long after, Li Shengrong came downstairs. As soon as he got out of the Dongning Building, he saw Ye Xiao wearing a cashmere coat.

"Mr. Ye!"

Seeing Li Shengrong approaching with his head sweat dropping, holding a car key in his hand, Ye Xiao immediately said with a smile, "Director Li, why bother coming down? You could have asked someone to bring it to me."

"Mr. Ye, it's my honor to run an errand for you. Please wait here a moment, I'll bring the car around for you," Li Shengrong said with a smile.

Ye Xiao replied, "There's really no need, just hand me the key."

"Mr. Ye, this..."

Ye Xiao said, "Give it to me, or I'll be unhappy."

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Li Shengrong immediately smiled sheepishly, hurriedly handed the key to Ye Xiao, and quickly told Ye Xiao the license plate number.

"Director Li, go upstairs and rest. In the future, have your subordinates handle these things. You're making me feel embarrassed," Ye Xiao said to Li Shengrong with a smile.

"Mr. Ye, please don't say that. It's my pleasure, and I won't take up more of your time," said Li Shengrong.

Ye Xiao forced a smile and then directly walked towards the parking lot.

Having someone be so diligent towards him, Ye Xiao was really a bit unaccustomed to it. After all, he used to be the one diligent towards others.

Ye Xiao found an old Santana in the parking lot, it looked a bit dated.

No matter how the car looked, it was definitely better than running on two legs, so Ye Xiao opened the car door, got in, and prepared to start the engine. However, after several attempts, he sat inside, laughing.

"Dang it, who drove the car without fueling up?" Ye Xiao looked at the fuel gauge at the bottom, laughing despite being frustrated.

Ye Xiao was really a bit puzzled now. What kind of skill did the person who last drove this car have to run it out of fuel so precisely?

Anyway, Ye Xiao couldn't deal with all that now. It's been more than twenty minutes since he called Jiang Miaoke, and that chick is not someone easy to deal with.

What to do?

Ye Xiao thought for a moment. Should he go find Xia Mingyue again and ask to use her car?

As soon as this thought appeared, Ye Xiao dismissed it. He had just said he wouldn't use it, and if he went back now, Fang Jing would definitely despise him. It wasn't good.

Ye Xiao sighed and muttered to himself, "Dang it, if only I had my own car."

Right after saying that, suddenly, a car flashed in Ye Xiao's mind.

Ye Xiao slapped his forehead and laughed, "Seriously, why think so much? I actually have my own car!"

Ye Xiao never had a car of his own and always drove other people's cars, so subconsciously he thought he didn't own a car, until now, he suddenly remembered.

He does have a car, and it's not a bad one. Yesterday, Fu Donglai gave him a car, an Audi A8, currently parked at Tulip District.

This Audi A8 could be considered a high-end car, but honestly, in Bird City, this big metropolis, it's not really considered a luxury car.

With this idea in mind, Ye Xiao immediately dashed out of the parking lot, hailed a taxi outside, and headed straight to Tulip District.

Even though the road was not easy to navigate at this time, Ye Xiao didn't care and directly gave the taxi driver double fare, so the taxi driver showcased his years of experience driving around.

Taking shortcuts all the way.

Incredibly, they reached Tulip District in less than fifteen minutes.

When Ye Xiao drove the Audi A8 out, he floored the gas pedal, it was as if he was going to push the pedal into the gas tank.

The black Audi A8 shot out like a black arrow, disappearing in an instant.

After a few minutes, Ye Xiao's phone rang.

Without even looking, Ye Xiao answered it directly, knowing whose call it was.

Just as expected!

Jiang Miaoke's voice came from the phone.

"Ye Xiao, what's going on? I've been waiting for almost an hour; are you coming or not?" Jiang Miaoke shouted over the phone.

Ye Xiao held one hand on the wheel, racing the Audi on the road, while calmly and bitterly told Jiang Miaoke over the phone, "Ran into a scammer who stages accidents."

"What? What kind of luck do you have to run into something like that at such a small chance?" Jiang Miaoke scoffed, "How much did you have to pay?"

"50 bucks!" Ye Xiao said offhandedly.

"Are you sure it was a scammer?" Jiang Miaoke said suspiciously, "You're not lying to me, are you?"

"Seriously, I came across a newbie, and he's not very old. I told him my dad is Li Gang, so he just asked for 50 bucks for medicine." Ye Xiao said earnestly.

"Really? Wasn't the Li Gang thing a few years ago? Do people still believe it?" Jiang Miaoke said.

Ye Xiao said, "No choice, fools appear every year, and there are especially many this year."

"Stop talking, hurry up!" Jiang Miaoke said.

Ye Xiao quickly replied with a laughing tone, "Alright, don't worry."

Ye Xiao hung up the phone, and just as he was about to accelerate again, suddenly, a shadow appeared ahead, and Ye Xiao immediately performed an emergency stop, even using the Nine Yang True Qi within him.

Finally, with the sound of tires screeching against the ground, he stopped, and Ye Xiao believed that the shadow wasn't more than 3 centimeters away from the Audi.

Oh damn!

Ye Xiao thought to himself, is there really a scammer? This is seriously unlucky.

At this moment, the sudden stop of the Audi on the road stunned quite a few people.

Yan Country people have one major trait, they love a spectacle; whether it's a wedding or a funeral, there's never a shortage of spectators, and more so for accidents happening on the road, even more people gather to watch.

Ye Xiao quickly got out of the car, thinking, this scammer is really bold, not afraid that I couldn't stop in time given my speed, and send him to the other side?

After getting out, Ye Xiao saw an elder woman, around fifty years old, lying in front of the car. The elderly woman seemed shocked too, with lingering fear, she glanced at the Audi.

"Ma'am, are you alright?" Ye Xiao hurriedly went over, wanting to help her up, while thinking about how much compensation would be appropriate.

If the person was young, Ye Xiao would absolutely kick them away, compensation? Who compensates whom isn't certain, but this is an elderly person, and there's no way he could do that.

The elderly woman noticed Ye Xiao after hearing his words, looked up at him and said, "Was it you driving the car?"

Upon hearing the elder's words, Ye Xiao thought she must be a scammer staging accidents, and directly said, "Ma'am, I'm in a hurry, I see you're not injured, how about I give you three thousand bucks and we settle this…"

"What did you say?" The elderly woman, hearing Ye Xiao's words, surprisingly stood up, looked at Ye Xiao and said, "You little rascal, almost hitting someone, and think you can settle it with money? Seems like you're a rich kid, a wealthy person, but does having money mean you can ignore the old and the young?"

Ye Xiao felt his face flush slightly hearing the elder's words.

Ye Xiao always respected the elderly, but he thought the elder was a scammer just now, so naturally, he wasn't polite. Now, hearing the elder's words, he felt somewhat ashamed.

Ye Xiao quickly said, "Ma'am, I'm really sorry, I didn't mean anything by it. Why don't we go to the hospital for a check-up, don't worry, I won't run away, it's my fault, I'll take responsibility."

"Humph, admitting fault with a good attitude, my legs feel fine, but I need to go home now, I was just about to hail a taxi, you have a car, so why don't you give me a ride back? Don't even think about saying no." The elderly woman said.

Ye Xiao quickly agreed, "Of course, of course!"
