I swear (/// ̄皿 ̄)○~ I will never let this sand sculpture Wu Yunfei sit in my car ever again!

Today morning, this guy suddenly said he wanted to drive me to work, but I didn’t take even a moment to consider it and decisively rejected him. 

Speeding early in the morning? He must be kidding me!

If the speed cameras on the road ended up capturing us speeding, I wouldn’t be working today and would be spending the rest of my day at the traffic management bureau instead.

He saw that I was resolute in rejecting him, so he tried to settle for the second best alternative and asked me if I could drive him to somewhere.

I looked at the map and saw that his destination was on the way to my office, so I agreed to his request. 

When a normal person is given a free ride, they would usually sit obediently and at most chat a bit with the driver.

But this guy was completely different, his antics had never stopped ever since he entered the car. He would touch here and touch there and then when he felt there wasn’t anything interesting left to touch anymore, he reached to the mini fridge at the back of my car. Taking out a Coke, he started to shake it.  SiKpuq

OTZ Now that I think about it, I really should have stopped those dumb actions of his. 

At that time I was too focused on driving my car, so I even heaved a sigh of relief when I saw him stop touching everything and fiddle with the coke instead. 

If he had continued his annoying behaviour, I would really have ended up scolding him.

In conclusion, I was very concentrated on reaching his destination earlier so as to get rid of this ADHD patient from my car.  E k6V0

Seriously, even a three year old child wouldn’t do this ba!

And this guy’s nearing thirty! tzMuE0

The consequences were obvious, the entirety of my car was instantly splashed with Coke. 

The situation in the front row was a little better, only my jacket had been stained by some Coke.

But this guy sitting behind in the passenger seat looked as if he had just fallen into a pond of Coke, not to mention his hair that was completely soaked with the beverage.

I wanted to reprimand him at first, but I didn’t have the heart to scold him upon seeing his pitiful expression. nhFOo7

In the end, I utilised only a few words from my vast vocabulary bank, “You must be retarded ba!”. 

He probably realised that he was in the wrong and hence, didn’t talk back at me. Instead, he lowered his reddened face. 

He he. He actually knew how to be embarrassed?

Ai, anyway, my monthly award for being the most diligent worker was gone because of him. ZyIo51

I looked at the calamity in my car and decided that I might as well take a leave for the entire day.

That’s right, the whole day!

I trembled as I sent out my request to take leave, and my heart was beating like a drum… I could already imagine those board directors nagging my ears off tomorrow. QAQ

This rascal noticed my predicament and didn’t feel more guilty at all. Instead, he mocked me for being an adult and yet acting like a little kid while requesting for a leave. xkijVM

(十▔皿 ▔)凸 If it was not for him, I would have won the Most Diligent Worker Award this month!

Does he think that everyone was like him, a rich boy idling about everyday?

I have a professional career!

But no matter how angry I was, I still couldn’t leave the car in this sorry state and wait for the Coke to evaporate while I argued with him. WUqt7d

I tried my very best to hold back my anger and located a car services shop nearest to us and passed them the car.

As we are both popular figures that often appeared on the news, we were recognised the moment we entered the shop. This made me even more vexed.

Who would want people to recognise them when they looked so pathetic?

Out of sheer courtesy, I forcibly gave a stiff smile to keep up my friendly persona. jdzY0Q

At this moment, I glanced at Wu Yunfei from the corner of my eye.

This guy had a black face that looked as if everyone owed him a few million dollars and his entire being emanated an air of oppression. This was a drastic difference from the sand sculpture who was playing around with Coke a while ago!

I suddenly thought of a great idea. I could use him as an excuse to escape from this situation.

But it was probably because of his instincts that his emotions seemed to become better once my attention went back to him. Although he still had a sour face, the corner of his lips were slightly raised.  zShJga

To prevent more people from gathering around and causing a commotion, I quickly left the car services shop with him.

After leaving the place, that guy couldn’t withstand his serious expression any longer and laughed loudly while clutching his stomach.

He said I acted like an old cadre, and didn’t look like a 20-something young person at all.

He also expressed his surprise about the fact that the both of us could actually cause a spectacle like we were hot celebrities, when we were only a jobless idler and a small employee.  NBYxlO

I felt relieved upon seeing his cheerful mood.

Just now when he had a black face, I thought that he was angry because his pathetic look had been photographed. 

That guy heard this and immediately whipped out his phone to show me his verified Weibo ID. 

Only now had I noticed this, that guy was astonishingly a verified fashion blogger?! hi8Okc

No wonder he always wore such weird and unfathomable clothes!

He told me that as a fashion blogger, any style he carried would be thought of as fashionable and trendy. Even if he told everyone that he had poured Coke on himself, they would believe that it was an artistic piece.

Emmmmm I truly couldn’t understand these fashionistas.

But, as long as he’s happy… heWwKI

To be safe, we didn’t go to a crowded shopping centre and went to a roadside clothing store instead.

Truthfully, this was my first time entering a small store like this. I thought at first the clothes they sold would be of poor quality, but shockingly, both the tailoring and the materials were all quite good. 

That guy told me that these kinds of small stores were usually personal studios where the clothes are tailored personally by the owners themselves. Although it still couldn’t compare to large luxury brands or tailor-made clothes, it was still considered topnotch for fashion mongers like him. 

The owner seemed quite moved when she heard him say this, and had the regretful expression of not being able to meet a customer like him earlier. tSrwfv

She told us that her shop sold very high quality clothes and that it would be no problem even if one did a Thomas Flare move wearing the clothes.. 

Usually, normal people who heard this would recognise that it was just an exaggerating figure of speech and laugh it off. However, this sand sculpture told the owner solemnly that it was difficult for him to do the Thomas Flare move, and that he could only handle radio exercises.

I thought I had heard it wrongly, but this guy really completed a set of radio exercises in that small shop…

I suspected that he had taken a fancy to the store owner, if not why would he act so mortifyingly in broad daylight? dDtCxi

I stared dumbfounded as they followed each other on Weibo right in front of me. The sand sculpture even told the girl to @ him if she wanted to post the video of him exercising just now, as he could help her in promoting the shop.

The girl looked very happy, she gazed at the sand sculpture with the face of an infatuated fan while enthusiastically thanking him. 

That sand sculpture also looked very happy. But I couldn’t understand why he would be happy at his embarrassing video being shared online. 

He probably really liked that girl… To win a beauty’s smile, this rascal really could do any perverse thing! dQFm5H
