CHAPTER 644: CHAPTER 644

As soon as the female woke up, she showed a look of panic and tried to struggle to get up.

"No need to be afraid, calm down," Wei Yue’er comforted.

Seeing the truck driver, the female pointed at him and shouted in panic, "He wants to harm me, quickly catch him!"

The truck driver looked speechless.

Wei Yue’er reassured, "Don’t worry, we’re here, even if he really wants to harm you, he can’t, besides, I don’t think this guy has any intention to harm you."

The female said emotionally, "What do you mean he doesn’t? He’s definitely seeking revenge! He deliberately drove to this remote road, he went off course several times, isn’t that proof enough!"

The truck driver couldn’t hold back anymore and said, "Are you freaking paranoid? I was just taking a shortcut, who the hell wants to harm you!"

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Miss, do you know what just happened?"

The female said, "I was afraid he would harm me, so I thought of jumping out to escape."

Lin Fan said, "Do you know what would happen if you jump out of a moving truck? You’d die instantly."

The female said, "No way, I’ve seen in movies, people jump out of trains, and they’re fine, aren’t they?"

Lin Fan sweated and rolled up his sleeve, revealing a scar on his elbow, "This scar is from two years ago, I accidentally fell while riding an electric bike, and I was going really slow. But when I hit the ground, it scraped my skin and flesh, and it took half a month to heal, and this scar is still here two years later. That was just an electric bike, if you jump off a high-speed moving truck, what do you think would happen?"

The female, still stubborn, said, "I’m fine now, aren’t I!"

Wei Yue’er said, "That’s because he saved you, it seems you have forgotten what happened just now, luckily I recorded it all."

Wei Yue’er took out her phone and played a video, which captured the moment Lin Fan saved the female.

The female watched the video, stunned, Lin Fan actually caught her with his bare hands in such a situation, if it weren’t recorded, she wouldn’t have believed it.

Lin Fan said, "You can’t trust movies, in martial arts films people are flying around, but does anyone actually fly in real life? Jumping out of a window like that, you’d definitely land on your head, causing serious injuries, brain trauma, brain hemorrhage, skull fracture—those would be unavoidable. If you’re lucky, you might end up in a vegetative state, if not, you’d be dead."

Upon hearing this, the female grew more frightened, trembling uncontrollably.

"It’s all his fault, if he hadn’t tried to harm me, I wouldn’t have jumped out of the truck!" The female then screamed, pointing at the truck driver.

Lin Fan said, "I also heard the driver explain what happened just now, and I don’t think he wanted to harm you."

The female said, "What, you believe everything he says? Why don’t you believe me? He wanted to harm me, otherwise why did he go off course!"

The truck driver said, "Didn’t I say, I was taking a shortcut!"

The female scoffed, "Of course you’d say that now, it’s just a lie to cover up your crime!"

The female wouldn’t listen to the truck driver’s explanation, convinced that he intended to harm her.

Lin Fan said, "If the driver wanted to harm you, why would he take another order?"

The female was taken aback, "What?"

Lin Fan said, "I saw the driver’s phone earlier, he took another order while on the way, judging by the timing, he probably wanted to finish your order quickly, which is why he took a shortcut, to save a few extra minutes for the next order. If he wanted to harm you, why would he do that?"

The female: "..."

For a moment, she was speechless; indeed, if the driver wanted to harm her, there was no need to take another order, it would be unnecessary and even disadvantageous to him.

Imagine, if the driver wanted to harm her, like abuse her or even kill her afterwards, then his next move would definitely be to escape and make sure to give himself enough time to get away.

But taking another order would prevent him from reaching the next client on time, exposing him quickly, it would just create trouble for himself.

This indicates that the driver deviated from the route only to take a shortcut, simply thinking about earning a bit more money, completely disconnected from the female’s wild ideas.

Lin Fan said, "I totally understand your feelings, Miss, because of this order, both you and the driver are discontent, you think you’re not at fault..."

The female interrupted Lin Fan, saying, "I’m not at fault, what wrong did I do? I paid to hire him to move my stuff, I moved it all within the stipulated time, I didn’t exceed the time, what did I do wrong? I get it, he’s upset because I wouldn’t pay extra for him to help move the stuff, he’s holding a grudge, if this is indeed a misunderstanding, it’s his fault, the look he gave me was like he wanted to kill me, and he went off course, can you blame me for misunderstanding?"

Lin Fan said, "You are indeed not wrong, from your perspective, you completed the move within the time limit, saving money, very impressive. However, when you were calculating for your benefits, it was to the detriment of the driver’s earnings, and that conflict over profit made the driver frustrated."

The female said, "He’s losing money? I wasn’t late, if he thinks he’s losing out, he should take it up with the platform, not me. It’s not like I set the 40-minute limit, so why blame me!"

Lin Fan said, "Exactly, that’s it, this is on the platform. To attract customers, the platform charges very low for moving fees, how much was your order?"

The female said, "40 bucks."

Lin Fan said, "See, with so much stuff moved so far, only 40 bucks, having moved before myself, if you weren’t using a platform, just hiring a traditional moving truck would have cost hundreds, right? The platform set such low prices to attract people, but introduces a loophole. If the driver needs to help with moving, an extra fee is required. This gives customers an option, but also creates conflicts. Drivers want to earn more and hope customers pay, but the customers can choose to save money, leaving the driver without that income, creating a conflict unknowingly. This can be considered the platform’s wrongdoing, making customers and drivers bear this risk."

The female said, "Exactly, so he should blame the platform."

Lin Fan shook his head, smiling, "You’ve understood everything I’ve said and you know this is a fault of the platform, and you know this rule harms the driver’s interests, but you used the rule to maximize your benefit, legally, you’re right, but it seems a bit inconsiderate as a person. The driver isn’t your enemy, he just wants to make more money. Even if you’re unwilling to pay extra, there’s no need to be cold, nor to see the driver as a villain. With your extreme behavior, you almost harmed yourself, and the driver too."

The female, after hearing this, revealed a cold smile, "I’m extreme? What about him, as a driver, is his poor service attitude justified!"
