Having enjoyed breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the hotel, Zhou Chao left feeling satisfied. It was now 5 o’clock in the afternoon.
Zhou Chao didn’t know much about the city, except for the Meizu smartphone, which was a nostalgic relic from a previous generation.
Walking on the streets of Yinzhou District, the crowds coming and going made the place especially lively.
“The sky is blue, waiting for the rain, and I’m waiting for you!”
Just as Zhou Chao was about to buy some street snacks, he heard his phone ringing in his pocket. He took it out and saw that it was an unknown number. “Hello!” Zhou Chao didn’t think much and directly answered the call.
“Hello, Mr. Zhou. I’m from Autohome. Your Lamborghini Veneno has been serviced and is ready for pickup. When would you like to come and get it?” “Is it already serviced? Alright, I’ll come right away. It might take about ten minutes!” Zhou Chao checked the time; it was already past 5:40, and it would be around 6 o’clock by the time he reached the car service center.
“Alright, Mr. Zhou!”
Zhou Chao hung up and immediately hailed a taxi to go to the Autohome service center.
By the time Zhou Chao arrived at Autohome, it was exactly 6 o’clock. As soon as he walked in, he noticed a crowd of people surrounding his car, taking pictures of it.
Without much thought, Zhou Chao walked straight into the store.
“Hello, I’m here to pick up my car!”
Approaching the front desk, Zhou Chao saw a young lady engrossed in her phone. When she heard Zhou Chao’s voice, she quickly looked up.
“So handsome!” The girl was captivated by Zhou Chao’s appearance and thought to herself.
“Hey handsome, are you here to pick up that car outside?”
“Yeah, the Lamborghini. How much is it in total?” Zhou Chao pointed outside to the Veneno, which was surrounded by onlookers.
“All, you’re the owner of that car? Sir, please wait a moment. Let me call my boss. Just a moment!”
After saying that, the girl rushed inside, leaving Zhou Chao somewhat puzzled.
Soon, a well-dressed middle-aged man with a prosperous figure came out, wearing a big smile on his face even before approaching.
“Mr. Zhou, a pleasure to meet you!” He extended his hand for a handshake, and Zhou Chao reciprocated.
“Boss, how much do 1 owe for the car?”
“Mr. Zhou, accepting your payment would be a slap in the face for me. If the people of Ning City find out, they’ll probably criticize my business. I absolutely cannot accept your payment this time. It’s free!” The boss’ face changed as soon as Zhou Chao mentioned payment, and he looked at Zhou Chao in astonishment for a moment.
Seeing the fleeting surprise on Zhou Chao’s face, the boss immediately understood and asked, “Mr. Zhou, do you occasionally watch short videos?” “Occasionally, but today I’m too tired. I just came from the hotel and received your call, so I rushed over. Is there a problem?”
The boss quickly grasped the situation and took out his phone from his pocket. After a few taps, he found a video and handed it to Zhou Chao.
Zhou Chao glanced at the prosperous boss and casually took the phone from the boss’s hand.
Upon seeing it, he was surprised.
On the phone was the official account of the Ning City Expressway Traffic Police, playing a video about the events surrounding Zhou Chao’s emergency blood delivery. It showed parts of Zhou Chao driving on the highway, the expressway traffic police clearing the way, and scenes from the city when they transferred the blood. Through a series of cooperation between the police and the people, they successfully saved the lives of a child and an adult. The video, edited by the authorities and accompanied by music, was truly heartwarming. “Boss, how did you recognize it was me?” Zhou Chao asked curiously. After all, the license plate wasn’t visible, and Lamborghinis were not uncommon.
“Hehe, luckily, I know a bit about cars; otherwise, I wouldn’t have recognized you. After all, this model of car, the Venom, is quite rare in China. Plus, at this time in Ning City, there can only be one person who fits the description – you!” The boss was also delighted as he had been part of this memorable event.
“I just did what I could. It’s not a big deal. If you were in my shoes, I believe you would have helped too!” Zhou Chao smiled at the prosperous boss and handed the phone back to him.
“Of course, of course!” The boss rubbed his hands awkwardly.
“Boss, I won’t stand on ceremony then. Thank you very much. Could you please disperse the people outside? I don’t really like the attention.”
Zhou Chao looked at the seven or eight people crowding around his car outside and couldn’t help feeling a headache.
“Oh, no problem at all. They’re all my employees. Let’s go, I’ll talk to them.” “Well, thank you, boss!”
Zhou Chao and the prosperous boss walked outside, and when the onlookers saw the boss approaching, they quieted down.
“Disperse, everyone! What are you doing crowding here!”
Hearing the boss’ scolding, the group of people dispersed, but some of them recognized Zhou Chao and discussed his heroic actions as they walked away. Seeing that the crowd had dispersed, Zhou Chao didn’t linger and said, “Boss, it’s getting late. I’ll be on my way now.”
“Sure, Mr. Zhou, take care!”
Without further ado, Zhou Chao opened the car door, got in, waved to the prosperous boss, and drove the Venom into the flow of traffic.
As for the prosperous boss, he took out his phone, his social media feed already flooded with likes and comments, and his face broke into a big smile.
Zhou Chao, having left the Autohome service center, leisurely drove through the city of Ning City, taking in the urban scenery.
Unconsciously, Zhou Chao arrived at a park, one of those automobile-themed parks. He noticed several RVs parked there, and not far away, some people were setting up tents, apparently preparing for a night of camping.
Zhou Chao parked his car, got out, and walked to a spot with a good view. He sat down, intending to relax and enjoy some time here.
Not even ten minutes had passed since he sat down when his phone rang again. Glancing at the seven-digit number on the screen, he knew it was a landline call.
As soon as Zhou Chao answered, he heard a voice on the other end.
“Hello, Mr. Zhou, this is the Ning City Traffic Police Department. We want to express our gratitude for today’s events. Additionally, the individuals involved would like to thank you in person. Do you have any time for that?”
Zhou Chao was momentarily surprised by the request but replied, “Thank you is not necessary. 1 just did what 1 could, and I prefer not to draw too much attention to it. Could you please decline on my behalf? I would appreciate it.” “Well, okay, I’ll convey your message to our superiors. I won’t disturb you further then.”
“Thank you.” Zhou Chao hung up the phone, a smile appearing on his lips.
“Ah, the feeling of doing a good deed is indeed different. It warms the heart. Hahaha!”
Zhou Chao spent a little over half an hour in the park before deciding to leave. The abundance of mosquitoes in the park made it hard to stay any longer. He continued his leisurely drive, exploring the city in his car..
