Chapter 56: I Am a Deliveryman
CHAPTER 56: CHAPTER 56: I AM A DELIVERYMAN
Lin Fan said, "It seems Sun Xiaona tricked her best friend."
Chen Lingling let out an ’oh’: "Well, Sun Xiaona, really? Even tricking her own best friend?"
Lin Fan said, "Guard against fire, theft, and besties, there’s some truth to that. Lingling, let’s not bother with her, let’s go shopping."
Chen Lingling nodded happily: "Okay!"
Being able to go shopping with Brother Lin made her so happy, she couldn’t care less about Sun Xiaona anymore. She didn’t want to think about anything, just wanted to enjoy shopping with Brother Lin.
So, the two walked out, got into the Kosak, and left Starbucks.
The Kosak was already far away. Inside the coffee shop, Sun Xiaona and Ma Rongrong were still tussling...
Chen Lingling needed to buy a new computer, so Lin Fan took her to the computer mall.
Arriving at the parking lot of the computer mall, they saw it was full of cars, with very few vacant spaces left.
Lin Fan, with keen eyes, spotted an empty space and swiftly drove there, doing a smooth drift to park the car in the spot.
Because his view was blocked, he hadn’t noticed a Toyota next to him had already positioned itself intending to reverse into the spot.
The Toyota driver suddenly realized the spot was taken and got very angry, cursing as he got out of his car intending to confront Lin Fan.
"Dare to take my spot, you little..."
But as soon as he saw that the car taking the spot was a Kosak, a top-notch supercar!
He immediately went silent.
Lin Fan got out of the car and then noticed the Toyota guy wanted this spot, apologetically saying, "Sorry, brother, I didn’t see you just now. How about I give the spot back to you?"
The Toyota guy immediately showed a flattering smile: "No need, no need, the spot is yours. I’ll just find another one."
The before-and-after attitude was hugely different, and remarkably polite!
Of course, anyone driving a Kosak must be a super-rich tycoon; he wouldn’t dare offend him.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "Thanks a lot then."
"No problem!" The Toyota guy nodded and bowed back to his car, quickly driving away.
Lin Fan didn’t really mind this little incident and headed toward the computer mall with Chen Lingling.
As they were walking, an average-looking woman, scoring a 60, suddenly turned to glance at Chen Lingling.
"Chen Lingling?" the average-looking woman said with pleasant surprise.
Chen Lingling saw the average-looking woman and recognized her too, happily saying, "Little Mei! Didn’t expect to bump into you here."
Little Mei smiled and said, "I’m waiting for my boyfriend; he’s parking over there. He’s coming over now."
Little Mei looked towards a direction, seeing a sharply dressed man getting out of a BMW, walking their way, with Little Mei wearing a proud expression. She seemed quite satisfied with this boyfriend.
After all, she’s not from a wealthy family either, just like Lingling in the past. Finding a boyfriend with a BMW was something to be proud of.
Chen Lingling turned to Lin Fan and said, "Brother, Little Mei was my colleague part-timing at the restaurant before."
Lin Fan smiled, "Hello."
Little Mei looked at Lin Fan, stunned by his handsome, masculine face. So handsome! Is he really Chen Lingling’s boyfriend?
Little Mei asked, "Lingling, is this your boyfriend?"
Chen Lingling said, "He’s..."
She hesitated a bit, unsure if she should let Lin Fan pretend to be her boyfriend. After all, she previously asked Lin Fan to pretend to be her boyfriend just to deal with Sun Xiaona, and Little Mei wasn’t Sun Xiaona...
But Lin Fan had already taken the initiative, holding Chen Lingling’s little hand: "I’m Lin Fan, Lingling’s boyfriend."
Chen Lingling blushed; Brother Lin is so nice, afraid I’d lose face, he took the initiative to say he’s my boyfriend.
Little Mei felt a bit envious, didn’t expect Chen Lingling to find such a handsome boyfriend. Comparing him to her own boyfriend, he was far less attractive than Lin Fan.
But she took a closer look at Lin Fan’s attire.
Cheap clothes from a roadside stall!
Little Mei felt a bit consoled, at least her boyfriend was wealthier than Lin Fan, driving a BMW!
At that moment, the BMW guy had already walked over.
Little Mei pulled the BMW guy, confidently smiled, and said, "Let me introduce, Liu Ming, my boyfriend; Chen Lingling, my former colleague; Lin Fan, Lingling’s boyfriend."
The BMW guy saw Chen Lingling, his eyes lit up. What a beautiful girl, much prettier than Little Mei!
Given the scenario, it wasn’t appropriate for him to stare at Chen Lingling too long, so he shifted his gaze to Lin Fan.
This guy is lucky, he thought. Handsome too, but judging by his attire, could he be a poor guy?
"Lin Fan, what line of work are you in?" the BMW guy asked while taking out a box of cigarettes, preparing to offer one to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan smiled, "I’m a delivery guy."
What?
The BMW guy and Little Mei were both taken aback.
The cigarette that the BMW guy was about to hand out was retracted in silence, as if a delivery guy wasn’t worthy of receiving his offering.
"Heh heh, delivery work is good," the BMW guy said with false courtesy.
Little Mei’s eyes suddenly showed a hint of disdain, and the sourness she felt towards Chen Lingling vanished completely, replaced by a sense of superiority.
So what if Chen Lingling found a handsome boyfriend? He’s just a delivery guy from the societal lower rung. She’s different; she’s achieved a leap in social class, outperforming Chen Lingling!
Little Mei proudly said, "Liu Ming is in the accessories business. He owns a store in the computer mall, and he’s hiring now. Lingling, if you and your boyfriend need a job change, you can apply at his store."
Even Chen Lingling could sense Little Mei’s air of superiority. She was a bit speechless; Little Mei wasn’t like this before. How did she become so snobbish?
Lin Fan smiled and said, "What a coincidence, Lingling is indeed looking for a job change recently."
He wasn’t wrong; Chen Lingling was about to go be the boss at Tourist Comics.
Liu Ming’s eyes lit up. No way, if Chen Lingling came to his store to work, wouldn’t he get to see her every day?
"That’s no problem at all. You’re Little Mei’s friend, working at my store, I won’t treat you poorly. Whenever you’re ready to join, just let Little Mei know," the BMW guy voluntarily said.
The expressions and thoughts of the BMW guy didn’t escape Lin Fan’s keen eyes.
Lin Fan sneered inwardly, judging by this, the BMW guy didn’t truly love Little Mei either. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be having inappropriate thoughts about Chen Lingling.
Little Mei smiled and said, "Lingling, that’s great! We can be together every day again, just like before."
Little Mei clearly did not notice her boyfriend’s inappropriate thoughts. She still believed her boyfriend was very devoted. The BMW guy indeed acted very devoted in front of her.
Chen Lingling felt a bit embarrassed: "Sorry, I won’t be going to your store. I’m going to Brother’s company."
The BMW guy felt a bit disappointed at her words, as if the meat to his mouth flew away.
Little Mei was surprised: "Lingling, no way, you’re going to deliver food too?"
Chen Lingling explained, "No, it’s not..."
Actually, Brother Lin just bought a comic company and was preparing to let her run it. She’s honest and intended to explain clearly to Little Mei.
Lin Fan said, "Lingling is indeed coming to my company, but not as a delivery person."
Little Mei said, "Well then, Lingling, if you’re not happy with your work, you’re always welcome to our store."
She didn’t ask further. Chen Lingling going to work in a delivery company mostly involved lower-level work, considering her boyfriend was just a delivery guy.
Seeing the conversation ended, Chen Lingling was also too lazy to explain further and said, "Okay."
Little Mei said, "Lingling, why are you guys heading to the computer mall today? Are you buying accessories? You can have a look at our store."
She intended to show off her boyfriend’s accessories store.
Chen Lingling said, "No, I’m here to buy a computer."
The BMW guy let out an ’oh’: "Buying a computer? Well, you’ve come to the right person. I’m familiar with all the stores here. Let me recommend one to you. What’s your budget? There are quite a few computers for 3,000 bucks."
Judging by their attire, with Lin Fan being a delivery guy, they obviously couldn’t afford an expensive computer. He assumed a 3,000 budget was the most they could manage.
Chen Lingling explained, "No, I need a computer for drawing. A 3,000 budget might not be enough, but I don’t really know much."
Lin Fan smiled, "If it’s for drawing, a 3,000 configuration definitely won’t do. I suggest getting an Apple computer."
Apple computer!
The currently top-performing computer brand on the market, a show-off accessory!
But it’s also incredibly expensive!
The BMW guy chuckled: "Apple computers are good, but they’re a bit pricey. Are you guys planning to pay in installments?"
He laughed internally; just an Apple computer, over a dozen thousand bucks, could they even afford it on installments!
Lin Fan was slightly embarrassed, was it just an Apple computer, only over ten grand, and he needed installments?
