    Chapter 78: The Show’s About to Begin!

    2025-01-21

    Chapter 78: The Show’s About to Begin!

    Ten o’clock.

    The underground parking garage, Zone F, of the shopping mall.

    “*&%¥#@……”

    The scene was still incredibly chaotic.

    Gu Yin and Xia Xiangsi had left, but Mengmeng and the Honda owner remained, arguing with Zhou Liang, a mall employee.

    It went from shouting to shoving. If his wife hadn’t been holding him back, the Honda owner would have already tackled Zhou Liang to the ground and given him a good beating.

    Perhaps the commotion was too much, attracting many onlookers exiting the mall, and also drawing in other mall employees…

    Several employees came to mediate, and even their manager came out to apologize.

    “I’m so sorry… so sorry…”

    “We are truly sorry…”

    “This is the mall’s responsibility, and we will take full responsibility.”

    “Check the security footage! Check it now!”

    “Quickly find out where the owner of this car went?!”

    The manager was decisive, but neither Mengmeng nor the Honda owner were buying it…

    Didn’t checking security footage take time?

    What time was it?

    Ten o’clock!

    If this hadn’t happened, they might already be home, washed up, snuggled in bed, enjoying a drama and a warm cup of tea…

    In this freezing cold weather, the temperature in the mall’s underground parking garage wasn’t high. They had been stuck here for over an hour with no solution, and now they had to wait for the security footage to be reviewed?

    Was this reasonable?!

    “Well… that’s all we can do for now,” the mall manager said, also quite vexed.

    What could the mall do in a situation like this?

    Besides checking the security footage and helping find the people, there was nothing they could do…

    Mentioning this, the manager also wanted to curse. Those Audi owners were such idiots! It was ten o’clock, the mall was almost closing up, and they still hadn’t finished their drinks?!

    And they still weren’t coming down?!

    People would think they died up there…

    In short.

    Right now.

    The scene was still incredibly chaotic.

    Because it was so late, many onlookers had given up and driven off…

    The mall was about to close, and the number of people and cars in the underground parking garage was dwindling. When Gu Yin and the others had come down, the area was full of cars; now, one by one, the cars were leaving, and the area was almost empty.

    This meant that people who had come down an hour later than them had already left, while they were still stuck in this standoff…

    How could this not make people furious?!

    “Damn it!”

    The Honda owner, unable to bear it any longer, stormed back to his car, opened the door and got in.

    “What are you doing?!” His wife was terrified, rushing to slap the car window.

    “I’ll ram it open!” The Honda owner shouted, “Can’t get in touch with them? Don’t care? I’ll see if anyone cares if I ram it!”

    “Are you crazy?!” Angered, his wife went to the front of the car, holding her child and stopping him from ramming…

    The man was so upset he started crying…

    As the saying goes, men don’t cry easily, but the owner couldn’t help it, he was just so incredibly frustrated!

    Honest people pushed to the limit will resort to desperate measures!

    “Sir, please calm down, please calm down…”

    The mall manager and the employees rushed forward to stop him.

    At that moment, the manager was thinking that the Honda owner was so irrational. The BYD owner next to him was much calmer; at least he hadn’t planned to ram the car, right…?

    He clearly mistook Mengmeng for the BYD owner.

    To be honest, if the car had been his own, Mengmeng might have already rammed it…

    Just then…

    At the height of the chaos.

    “Vroom vroom…”

    With the sound of an engine, a forklift slowly drove towards them from a distance.

    “Where did this forklift come from?” Seeing the forklift, everyone was stunned.

    “That’s…” Mengmeng was also surprised.

    She clearly saw two people sitting on the forklift. Although they were far away, judging from their clothes, it was Gu Yin and Xia Xiangsi.

    Mengmeng: “???”

    A series of question marks flashed across Mengmeng’s face!

    What the…

    What was going on?!

    Gu Yin had suddenly left without explanation, and Mengmeng was wondering what he was doing, but in a moment, he appeared driving a forklift?!

    Where did he get a forklift?!

    “No, this…”

    The Honda owner, his wife, child, and the mall employees were all dumbfounded when they saw Gu Yin approaching on the forklift.

    “Who are they?” the manager asked Zhou Liang.

    “The owner of the BYD…” Zhou Liang pointed at Mengmeng: “They’re together.”

    “Oh~”

    The manager nodded, his expression relaxing considerably, letting out a silent sigh of relief.

    Although he didn’t know what was going on, if it was the BYD owner who had gotten the forklift, it meant they were here to solve the problem.

    No matter where he got the forklift from, as long as he could move the Audi A6, that was good.

    Everyone at the mall probably felt relieved like the manager.

    In the moment it took them to think, Gu Yin and Xia Xiangsi had already driven the forklift to the blocked entrance.

    “Sir, hello…” As Gu Yin got off the forklift, the manager approached him with a smile, saying, “I’m the mall manager, Liu Si. You’re the owner of this BYD Qin, right?”

    “Yes.” Gu Yin nodded, not bothering to exchange pleasantries with the manager, and directly said, “Your mall doesn’t care, so I found a forklift to move the car. Is that okay?”

    “Oh, yes, of course, of course.” The manager looked delighted. Gu Yin solving the problem himself made him relieved.

    He stepped back, pointing to a nearby area of empty parking spaces, saying, “Just move the car to anywhere over there. As long as it doesn’t obstruct traffic, we’ll handle the communication with the other party.”

    Then, he apologized again, “I’m really sorry for the trouble. We will cover the forklift fees…”

    “No need.” Gu Yin didn’t give him a good look, not even glancing at him.

    He got directly back onto the forklift.

    The manager didn’t mind, calling to Zhou Liang and the other employees, “Xiao Zhou, quickly, keep an eye on things!”

    Under everyone’s gaze, Gu Yin drove the forklift to the Audi, inserted the forks under the car, slowly lifted it, and raised it into the air.

    “Whew…”

    At that moment, everyone in the mall breathed a sigh of relief.

    However, Mengmeng, Xia Xiangsi, the Honda family, and even the viewers watching the show were still furious.

    After all, the Audi owners hadn’t paid any price.

    A sense of suppressed anger, neither rising nor falling, made people uncomfortable…

    But just then!

    【Hey! Look!】

    【Where is Coach Gu moving the car?!】

    Viewers of the “Reconciling with Life” show quickly noticed that Gu Yin hadn’t moved the Audi A6 to the area designated by the mall staff.

    But…

    He moved it to a corner of the wall.

    A wall-banging move!

    【Pfft…】

    At that moment, everyone burst out laughing.

    Everyone realized one thing:

    【The show’s about to begin!】
