IFBNW 1.1

The weather in February is warm and cold.

Ji Fei came out of the driving school, straightened her new Versace white cotton jacket, and held the hard-earned small notebook in her hand. On it, a line of golden characters stood out: Motor Vehicle Driver’s License.

As a rapidly developing city in all aspects, Quanzhou is synonymous with tall buildings and developed transportation. Therefore, even riding an electric scooter now requires a driver’s license. This posed a great challenge for Ji Fei.

The Ji family always travels in various SUVs, and no one would drive a two-wheeled vehicle. Helpless and unable to rely on her family, Ji Fei had to enrol in driving school herself. Fortunately, she had both luck and ability and passed the exam in one go.

“Fei Fei, have you thought this through?” On the phone, Xu Ranran sounded worried and distressed.

“Of course, I’ve always been someone who takes action.” Ji Fei said as she walked towards the parking space. The driving school was located in a remote area with few pedestrians nearby. In the distance, she could see a high-profile luxury white BMW parked at the corner.

“But…”

“But why would you give up being a proper young lady and choose to deliver takeout?” Xu Ranran couldn’t understand. Was this the joy of being wealthy?

Ji Fei was very calm. “There are few classes in my third year, so I’m just adapting to working life in advance.”

Xu Ranran said, “I believe you’re up to something.”

Ji Fei had a clear goal. In recent years, with people becoming busier with work, the food delivery industry has rapidly developed. Until now, there are countless food delivery companies, and among them, “Rice Ball ” and “Big Appetite” are the most well-known, with both companies being neck and neck.

As the future heir of Big Appetite Group, Ji Fei naturally had to contribute to the development of the company. She planned to deliver takeout during her free time and weekends to understand the company’s food delivery business and conduct market research. Of course, the most important thing was to understand the difference between Big Appetite and its competitor, Rice Ball.

 

Xu Ranran wanted to say something else, but Ji Fei suddenly said, “Wait, don’t make a sound.”

Xu Ranran asked, “What’s wrong?”

Ji Fei stopped and tilted her head slightly. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a figure not far behind, neither too close nor too far. She calmly said, “I think I’m being followed.”

Xu Ranran exclaimed, “In broad daylight, in a society governed by the rule of law, there are people so audacious?”

Ji Fei only took two seconds to think and quickly made a decision. “I’m near Tengxiang Driving School. Call me in twenty minutes. If I don’t answer, call the police.”

Xu Ranran’s voice trembled in fear. “O-Okay, be careful!”

Ji Fei hung up the phone and put it in her pocket. She walked quickly around the corner and leaned against the wall, waiting.

Ji Fei had been learning boxing since she was eleven, and today marked the tenth year. Although she appeared slender and lovely, with cute curly hair, once she rolled up her sleeves, her arms were covered in well-distributed and beautiful muscles.

Because of this, Xu Ranran gave her the nickname “Iron Doll”. The Iron Doll moved her neck and wrists, biting her pretty lower lip.

Footsteps approached. Three steps, two steps, one step.

Ji Fei struck like lightning, elbowing the person in the abdomen. Before the person could react, she followed up with a powerful knee strike!

“Ah!” Accompanied by a painful cry, Ji Fei only had two words in her mind: perfect.

Zhou Lu, who had just obtained his driver’s license and was happily preparing to hit the road happily: ???

He was stunned by the beating but relied on his excellent physical fitness to not fall on the spot. But it didn’t get any better. He couldn’t speak a word, and his abdomen convulsed as soon as he opened his mouth. In the end, he could only choose to squat on the ground leaning on the BMW’s body, breathing in with a small arc of movement.

Ji Fei leaned against the car, ignoring his appearance.

At this moment, she looked down at him from a high position: “Tell me, why are you following me?”

Zhou Lu was so angry that he raised his head to look at her when he heard this.

At this time, Zhou Lu had no time to appreciate the beauty that was so close at hand.  He was ashamed, angry and in pain:” …Who is following you? My car is here!”

From this angle, she could see the back of Zhou Lu’s neck exposed in the air as he lowered his head. The label of his black coat collar faintly revealed a line of English: Burberry.

(Burberry is a luxury brand similar to Versace.)

…

She messed with the wrong person.

Ji Fei calmly retracted her hand and put it behind her back. In a short time, she thought about a lot of things. No wonder this person kept walking in this direction. He could afford Burberry. Maybe he is the owner of this BMW.

“Um, sorry about that.” Ji Fei’s expression was embarrassed. When she made a mistake, she apologized sincerely. She reached out with both hands to help Zhou Lu up, showing 120% sincerity. “Are you okay? Do you need me to take you to the hospital?”

Zhou Lu stood up with the help of her, but the pain made it difficult for him to straighten his back. This time, he finally had a good look at the girl’s face. To put it mildly, she was very beautiful, stunning at first sight.

A small face, fair skin, a high nose bridge, and delicate features, especially her eyes. Even without coloured contact lenses, her natural light brown eyes were clear and bright, like a finished product drawn by an art student. Her brownish-yellow curly hair was loosely tied into a ponytail, with a thin layer of air bangs covering her forehead. Despite being permed, her hair didn’t appear heavy or frizzy but rather added a touch of playfulness.

All in all, a typical configuration of a young female college student. If it weren’t for the familiar Versace watch on her wrist. This watch was a limited edition, and Zhou Lu missed the chance to reserve it last time.

– This girl has a big background. Not someone to mess with. That was Zhou Lu’s only thought.

“No need to go to the hospital, I’m not that fragile.” Zhou Lu waved his hand and stepped aside. “Is this your car? I’ll move over there. You can go ahead.”

Ji Fei hesitated and said, “Isn’t this your car?”

The two looked at each other and saw the hidden probing in each other’s eyes. Other than a luxurious BMW, there were two eDonkey’s on the left and right. Ji Fei cautiously extended a finger and pointed at the left one.

Zhou Lu’s voice was strained as he pointed to the right side, “That one, mine.”

An unnamed awkwardness spread in the air, and for a while, both remained silent. At this moment, Ji Fei distractedly named this awkwardness as “the temptation of money” BMW next to the eDonkey.

In the end, it was a car that bore all the burden.

Seeing the boy still clutching his abdomen, Ji Fei broke the silence first, “………… um, if you don’t mind, I have a bottle of red flower oil in my bag.” She reached into her bag as she spoke and indeed took out a bowl-sized bottle of safflower oil, which looked like it had been used up by half.

Zhou Lu:…

Zhou Lu looked at the slanted shoulder bag that belonged to the girl. He didn’t recognize the brand of the bag, but that wasn’t the issue – why did other girls carry cosmetics in their bags, but she had a bottle of safflower oil with her?

Thinking back to Ji Fei’s earlier kick, Zhou Lu felt even more pain in his abdomen.

Zhou Lu took the safflower oil weakly and said, “Thank you.”

The atmosphere cooled down again. Ji Fei didn’t leave, but staying wasn’t an option either. Just then, the phone rang. Ji Fei picked it up eagerly, as if seeing her father: “Hello.”

Xu Ranran’s voice was extremely noisy, “Feifei, are you okay? Has the criminal been subdued? Do you still need to report to the police?”

The worry in these three consecutive sentences was more deadly than the previous ones. Ji Fei felt like a knife was stabbing directly into her heart.

She thought Xu Ranran was here to rescue her, but this phone call made the already tense atmosphere even worse. Because while she was listening, Zhou Lu beside her also listened attentively, not missing a single word.

Zhou Lu:…

Ji Fei looked at him and said with difficulty, “I can explain.”

Zhou Lu extended his palm to create some distance between them and sincerely said, “It’s okay, I understand.”

What do you understand? Ji Fei forced a fake smile, not wanting to ask too much, and could only reply, “Well, thank you very much for your understanding.”

Zhou Lu had just recovered a bit from his abdominal pain and walked towards his eDonkey, saying, “Well, I’ll go first. You can continue with your phone call. Let’s clarify things next time.”

Watching the unsteady figure of the young man, Ji Fei felt a bit guilty and reminded him before leaving, “Remember to apply the safflower oil. Before applying, use a hot towel to apply to the wound, and then rub the red flower oil in.”

The response from the other person was to accelerate on the eDonkey without looking back.

 

….. So, it was just a misunderstanding?” In the dormitory, Xu Ranran was eating potato chips, with a layer of jelly mask on her face, leaning against a huge plush toy, expressing great shock.

Ji Fei washed her face and replied, “Hmm.”

Xu Ranran asked again, “You hit someone wearing a Burberry, and he didn’t ask you for any compensation?”

Ji Fei covered her face and said, “No.” That’s why I feel a little guilty.

Xu Ranran instinctively touched her chin, accidentally touching off her mask, “Tsk, I’m dirty………….. In that case, I think his character is pretty good. He could have demanded a large sum of money from you, but he didn’t. There aren’t many people like him nowadays.”

Ji Fei sighed: “I know .”

Xu Ranran thought for a while, then suddenly leaned over and asked in a mysterious whisper, “Is he handsome?”

Ji Fei: “… I didn’t pay attention .”

“I don’t know.” Ji Fei replied. She was consumed with guilt at that time.

At that time, in the male dormitory of A Food College. Zhou Lu sat on the bed with his back to the door, lifting the hem of his clothes. There was a large bruise on his abdomen, visually striking.

Zhou Lu couldn’t bear to look at it for more than a glance: “The little girl sure hit hard!”

Chen Yuanyang felt something was wrong when he came back. The dormitory door and windows were tightly closed, and the curtains were drawn. Because of poor sound insulation, there were occasional inappropriate sounds like “hiss, ah, oh” coming from inside.

There were two people in the A dormitory, and if he wasn’t there, it must be Zhou Lu. The ten thousand-year abstinence dog finally had a breakthrough? He didn’t expect that.

Chen Yuanyang didn’t intend to disturb Zhou Lu. As a good brother, he was preparing to leave alone to create a personal environment for Zhou Lu when he suddenly saw someone coming at the end of the corridor. It was fortunate that he heard it, but if someone else heard it, what would happen to Zhou Lu’s face?

With this in mind, Chen Yuanyang could only put on a brave face and awkwardly cleared his throat, saying, “Brother Lu, um, you should get ready, I’m coming in !”.

Zhou Lu didn’t respond, but the sound stopped.

Chen Yuanyang pushed the door and walked in, seeing Zhou Lu still, with his back turned to him. He thought that Zhou Lu was a bit annoyed by the interruption, so he walked over with a silly smile on his face and said, “It’s okay, Brother Lu, we’re all brothers, you don’t have to feel awkward…” Before he could finish his sentence, his nose suddenly twitched. “No, what is this overwhelming smell?”

At this moment, Zhou Lu turned around. He hadn’t put down his clothes yet and was holding a bottle of safflower oil, with a cold expression on his face as he asked, “What did you ask me to prepare just now?”

Chen Yuanyang thought at an inappropriate time: Such a good environment is being used to apply safflower oil? What is he doing?

Zhou Lu stared at him and asked again, “Why do I feel awkward?”

Chen Yuanyang’s strong survival instinct made him immediately shake his head and say, “No, nothing.”

Zhou Lu looked at him faintly several times and finally withdrew his eyes with great mercy. He put his things down, smelled the pungent smell on his hands, and went to the bathroom to wash his hands with a frown.

Chen Yuanyang followed him like a little tail and pointed to his belly: “Brother Lu, what’s wrong with you, didn’t you go to get your driver’s license? Did you fall off the scooter on the way?”

Zhou Lu felt unlucky to think about it, took a deep breath and said: “Forget it, there is no point in talking about it.

He wiped his hands clean, fished out his phone, and skillfully tapped into the rice ball platform.

Sensing his intention, Chen Yuanyang suddenly grabbed his hand, sounding excited, “Wait, brother, have you thought this through?”

“Thought what through?”

“About becoming a delivery driver?”

“Yeah.”

This morning, the food delivery app updated and started recruiting new part-time delivery drivers. Unlike full-time employees who receive a monthly salary and performance bonuses from the company, part-time drivers are paid per delivery with no guaranteed minimum wage.

In short, the more deliveries you make, the more money you can earn. Although it doesn’t sound like a lot of money, the advantage of part-time work is that you can choose to accept or decline orders without any restrictions, making it suitable for students.

This recruitment was decided by the senior management of Rice Ball Company after nearly a month of discussion. Zhou Lu, as one of the senior executives, was fortunate enough to become one of the first practitioners of the new plan.

Chen Yuanyang looked at Zhou Lu’s handsome face and then at his finger about to click on the words “become a delivery rider”. He grabbed his hand and angrily said, “Brother, it’s not necessary, really not necessary! With such a face, who would still go and deliver food? It’s simply a waste!”

Zhou Lu glanced at him, exerted force with his arm, and his fingertip barely touched the screen.

Chen Yuanyang forcefully lifted his hand upwards, struggling so much that even his eyes unconsciously widened, making him look fierce. He gritted his teeth and said, “Brother, think about it again. Your fangirls will cry! Or maybe we can switch faces. But it’s impossible to switch faces, not in this lifetime.”

Zhou Lu was stronger than him, and his fingertip finally touched the screen. Seeing the page redirected, Chen Yuanyang felt defeated, like a defeated dog.

The handsome male god of  University  A  is going to deliver takeout, and just thinking about it feels like his image is shattered.
