Heiche: (after my friend gets out) Okay, now to Xinjiekou. How do I get there?
Me: Take the second ring road, past Heping West Bridge, it's right by the Jishuitan subway stop.
Heiche: What? Xinjiekou isn't right over there?
Me: What? No. I told I wanted to go to BNU. It's over there.
Heiche: Friend! Are you serious?
Me: Who are you calling friend?
Heiche: Aren't we friends?
Me: Are you going to try to cheat me after we already made our deal and became friends?
Heiche: Who's cheating who? I thought it was just over there. You really didn't agree to give me hardly any money at all!

Heiche: (slamming on the brakes) FUCK YOUR MOTHER
Me: (timidly) Are you sure you're going the right way?
Heiche: YES. Can't you see? West! All the way out to the third ring!
Me: We won't get to the third ring.
Heiche: BNU isn't by the third ring?
Heiche: Huh! Well, I didn't know that. I didn't go to university!
Heiche: You! This is too far! You! You're too foxy.
Me: I'm not foxy. It's the official price.
Heiche: What's official? I've never even been here before. You're too foxy by far!
