   Topic1-Netizens criticize customer for asking for 2 bottles of water on deluxe 1 chauffeured 2 car


  Placing a booking on your car-hailing app before taking off to your next destination is a preferred way of commute 3 for Chinese urban dwellers 4. When you pay a higher fee for a deluxe chauffeured car, customers are promised with extra amenities 5 such as free bottled water, phone charger and tissues.
  Recently, a video of a Didi passenger and driver has gone viral. The two men argued profusely 6 because the customer asked for one more bottle of water. And to people's surprise, more internet users took the driver's side. Why is that?
