Zhou Huaijiang was dumbfounded by the scolding. Previously, when he ordered take-out or called for an errand, he would always ask them to throw away the trash.
But now, they actually cursed at him?
Who gave him the courage to do this?!
“You f*cking wait. If I don’t file a complaint against you, my surname won’t be Zhou!”
“You can have as many last names as you want. You can even take my last name if you want.”
Lin Yi turned around and left after finishing his sentence. He didn’t want to entertain Zhou Huaijiang at all.
He walked to the door and saw a delivery guy with two bags of trash in his hands. He threw them into the trash can and picked up his phone to make a call.
“Hello, Ma’am. I’ve thrown out the trash for you. Please give me a five-star review. Thank you.”
“Okay, okay, okay, thank you.”
Lin Yi didn’t walk very fast. He looked around again and saw three delivery guys coming out one after another, two of them carrying trash.
They must have been taking out the trash for the customer.
There was also the weirdest one, a delivery guy carrying not only food but also more than ten packages.
If he wasn’t were not wearing a uniform, Lin Yi would have thought that he was a food delivery person.
Lin Yi wasn’t feeling too good about this scene.
Life was not easy, it was too difficult.
Just as Lin Yi was about to leave, he saw a man in a uniform carrying a broken table as he walked toward the bin with great difficulty.
Lin Yi didn’t stay idle as he ran over to help.
“Don’t worry, I’ll help you carry it.”
“Thanks, Bro.”
Lin Yi’s appearance saved the delivery guy a lot of trouble.
Panting, Lin Yi threw the table near the trash can and the two of them sat down on the steps to rest.
“Thanks, Bro, but I’m so fucking tired,” the delivery guy said as he pulled out two cigarettes. “Have one.”
“It’s not a big deal, there’s no need to thank me,” Lin Yi said with a smile as he took the cigarette.
Lin Yi had quit smoking after graduating from university. He would only smoke a few cigarettes when he was in an extreme situation like during the previous night.
However, Lin Yi was too embarrassed to refuse the cigarette as he was afraid of hurting the delivery guy’s pride.
“It’s too hard to do deliveries,” the delivery guy said. “Sometimes, I can’t even tell if I’m a garbage man or a delivery guy.”
“Why don’t you just reject them?”
“If you reject a customer, they’ll give you a bad review. Once the platform fines you, half a day’s work will be wasted. It’s so f*cking hard to do this job,” the delivery guy said.
“Usually, people like us stay far away from people like you. There are too few landlords like you who take the initiative to help.”
Lin Yi chuckled. “Actually, I’m not a landlord. I’m just an errand boy. We’re pretty much the same.”
“No way, why aren’t you wearing your uniform then? Aren’t you afraid of getting fined?” The delivery guy said. “You’re so handsome, it’d be a waste for you to come out and run errands. You can just hook up with any rich lady and you’ll be able to live happily ever after.”
“Everyone has their own aspirations,” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“F*ck, you’re still here!”
As the two were chatting, Lin Yi turned back to look at the yelling coming from not too far away.
He realized that the person who was talking was his previous customer, and he had two bags of trash in his hands.
“What? You want something from me?”
“Nothing. I just wanted to warn you that your five stars are gone, and I’m going to call in to complain. You can forget about this job.”
“Feel free,” Lin Yi said indifferently.
The delivery guy was stunned. “What happened to you, Bro?”
“He told me to take out the trash after I delivered the order. I didn’t pay him any attention, so he got angry out of humiliation.”
“That’s it?” The delivery guy stood up and said to Zhou Huaijiang,
“Sir, please calm down. It’s just two bags of trash. Don’t lower yourself to my friend’s level. If you call in with a complaint then we’ll have wasted our whole day. It’s obvious that you’re a kind person, so why lower yourself to our level?”
The delivery guy wanted to help Lin Yi out because Lin Yi had helped him earlier.
“Get lost, the trash can is right in front of me. Do I need you to throw it away?” Huaijiang cursed.
“This…”
The delivery guy didn’t say anything after being scolded. He was angry, but there was nothing he could do. This was the money he earned, and he was indeed inferior in this situation.
“Alright, don’t lower yourself to this kind of idiot,” Lin Yi said.
“Who are you calling an idiot?”
“I’m talking to you. Don’t you have functioning ears? Do you want me to say it again?”
Hearing the arguments on both sides, the people around stopped to watch the commotion.
This was the first time they saw a delivery guy who went against the customer. Did he not want to work anymore?
“I know this person. His family seems to be quite rich. He seems to drive an Audi A6. He’s a person of status.”
“Then this kid is finished. I reckon he will be toyed with to death.”
“These people really don’t realize their status. They don’t have any self-awareness at all.”
Zhou Huaijiang was so angry that he spun around on the spot. “A f*cking errand boy. Who gave you the confidence to act so awesome? Let me tell you, I will not let this matter go so easily!”
“Then who gave you the confidence to act so awesome?”
“Aren’t you afraid to find out? I’m the sales manager of Zhonghai Ruijia Petrochemical Company.”
As he spoke, Zhou Huairen took out his car keys and lit up the headlights of an Audi A6 parked not too far away.
“I earn 500,000 a year and drive the latest Audi A6. That’s where my confidence comes from. How can you compare to me?!”
The delivery guystood up and pulled Lin Yi back when he saw Zhou Huaijiang’s Audi A6.
“Bro, calm down, that car isn’t cheap. We can’t afford to offend him. If you still want to eat, you better apologize to him, otherwise, there’ll be no room for redemption at all.”
“Redemption? Why do you want to redeem yourself? There’s no need to bother with a guy like that.”
“But we can’t beat him. If he complains, you won’t be able to do anything.”
“Haha, you know your place, Brother.” Huaijiang laughed.
“I won’t make things difficult for you. I don’t want people to say that I’m a bully. You just have to bow to me and apologize, and I won’t hold it against you. I’ll even give you a five-star rating.”
“A lousy Audi A6, and you’re acting so arrogant?” Lin Yi laughed.
“Haha…”
Lin Yi’s words made everyone burst out laughing.
“What’s wrong with this kid? He’s just an errand boy, how could he look down on someone who drives an A6?”
“I was wondering the same thing. Could he be the legendary keyboard warrior? But why is he also doing this in real life?”
“He’s probably a newbie. After receiving a few bad reviews and complaints, he’ll know who’s the boss and who’s the grandson.”
“He’s just an errand boy who hasn’t been beaten up by society. What’s the point of being cocky?”
Huaijiang fiddled with the car keys in his hand. “I’d really like to know what you’re so cocky about. How dare you look down on my Audi A6?”
Lin Yi took out the car keys, and the Koenigsegg headlights lit up as the car door opened.
“That’s where my confidence comes from.”
