Chapter 797: Chapter 797: Where There Are People, There Is a Jianghu
Gu Yingying saw Xinyan decline and, for some reason, said, "When the time comes, my dad will send a car to take us there; it’s very convenient."
Having lived a second life, Xinyan finally understood; this was someone trying to show off to her.
Xinyan feigned envy and said, "Your dad is really good to you."
Thinking, now your vanity should be satisfied, right? Please stop showing off to me, as if no one else has a doting father.
Perhaps Gu Yingying really was as Xinyan thought; her vanity was satisfied. She said, looking regretful, "That’s really a shame."
A classmate next to her chimed in with flattery, "Gosh, I’ve never ridden in a car before. Yingying, I’ll have to trouble you when the time comes."
Gu Yingying intentionally smiled warmly and said, "No problem, I’m going anyway, giving me a lift is one round trip, bringing a few more doesn’t matter."
Xinyan glanced at her, thinking: If only she could hide that bit of disdain in her eyes, she would actually seem more sincere.
However, where there are people, there’s always a social circle.
A classmate spoke up, "Gu Yingying, I heard you promised many classmates that they could ride in your dad’s car. Now you’ve promised so many again. Do you know what kind of car your dad will arrange, one that can fit so many people?"
As soon as this was said, many classmates looked at Gu Yingying.
Gu Yingying blushed immediately: "As for what kind of car, I need to go home and discuss it with my dad."
Xinyan saw her embarrassed expression and couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Really just looking for trouble, let’s see you show off again.

On the other hand, He Jinxuan and his group had just finished loading the cargo and were about to set off when a leader from the transport company approached: "Captain He, there’s something I’d like your help with."
He Jinxuan stood up, saw the people following the leader, and understood what it was about.
The leader continued, "This is a relative from my wife’s side, and they’re heading the same way. They’d like to hitch a ride with our convoy."
Hitching a ride is common. Since the leader had come over personally, he didn’t want to refuse. After understanding the destination, he nodded and said, "Alright, the convoy is about to set off. Let them take the last vehicle."
The leader turned to the two hitchhikers, "This is Captain He. Just follow his instructions during the journey and do not cause any trouble for Captain He and the convoy."
The two looked at He Jinxuan after hearing this.
He Jinxuan, not wanting any hassle, waved over a driver: "Xiao Zhao, these two comrades want to hitch a ride with our convoy. Let them take your vehicle."
Xiao Zhao, the one called, nodded in agreement: "Alright, Captain, I’ve got it."
After that, he said to the man and woman, "Come with me."
Seeing the matter settled, the leader exchanged a few pleasantries with He Jinxuan and left.
He Jinxuan checked his watch: "Everyone, double-check the vehicle conditions. We’re about to set off immediately."
Shortly after, everyone reported back that everything was in normal condition. He Jinxuan then shouted loudly, "Get in, let’s move out."
However, just as he announced departure, the woman who had arranged to hitch a ride came over: "Captain He, we don’t want to sit in that vehicle."
When He Jinxuan heard this, he was somewhat annoyed: "How you’re arranged, how you’ll ride; if you refuse to follow instructions, then don’t hitch a ride."
The woman was a bit irritated: "Hey, how can you talk like that? We’re your leader’s relatives, you know."
He Jinxuan didn’t care who she was: "I’m leading this convoy. I call the shots. If you don’t like it, suit yourself."
