The car was parked on the second floor below. Gu Nianxi followed Su Yuheng and walked to a red car. She glanced at him unexpectedly, with an expression that seemed to ask, are you sure this is your car?
The color of this car is very inconsistent with his temperament. How could he, a straight man, drive a red car?
"Can you drive?" Su Yuheng turned to ask her.
"Um?"
"The doctor said I can't drive because of my eyesight. It would be difficult to drive back."
"Then why did you come to the hospital just now?"
Gu Nianxi's smart appearance annoyed Su Yuheng. He took out the car key from his pocket and handed it to her.
"The driver had something to do at home, so I asked him to go back."
Gu Nianxi looked at him suspiciously, "Really?"
Su Yuheng nodded. In fact, he was the one who asked the driver to take a taxi back to the company.
"So can you help me drive the car back?"
"..."
The two stood in front of the car, staring at each other. It took a while before Gu Nianxi realized that he invited her to dinner because he wanted her to drive for free.
"But...I can't drive either."
"Why?" He tilted his head and asked her pretending to be stupid, "Can't you drive?"
"It's not that I can't drive, it's because I had an accident and haven't driven since then."
Since the car accident, Gu Nianxi has not touched the steering wheel for more than three years. There are two reasons why she does not drive.
First, she suffered from psychological distress after the car accident; second, her boyfriend, He Jianchen, was worried about her reaction ability and did not allow her to drive alone.
The car she gave her last time has been parked in the parking space in front of her house. She has never touched the steering wheel, but she has always wanted to try driving because the clinic is far away from home and it would be more convenient to drive to work, but He Jianchen did not allow her to drive alone.
, has always said that she would practice driving with her when he takes a break, but he is too busy with work and has not had the chance so far.
Therefore, his request was a bit difficult for her.
Su Yuheng was silent for a moment and said softly: "Get in the car and I'll teach you how to drive." He didn't give Gu Nianxi a chance to refuse and put the car key into her hand.
"I can't do it, I really can't do it." Gu Nianxi waved her hands repeatedly.
Amidst her refusal, Su Yuheng was already sitting in the passenger seat. Gu Nianxi was unable to get out of the car, eager to try but a little worried.
"Don't be afraid, I will protect you." He stretched out his head and said to her.
His words "I protect you" seemed to have powerful magic power, making her feel safe. Gu Nianxi got into the car in a daze as if she was hypnotized.
Sitting in the car, Gu Nianxi took a look at the interior of the car. The decorations on the car and the fragrance in the air vents were all very feminine things.
The owner of this car should be a woman, is it his ex-wife?
"Fasten your seat belt," he reminded her.
"oh."
Gu Nianxi lowered her head and fastened her seat belt. She glanced at Su Yuheng and saw that the expression on his face was not good.
"Is it fastened?" he asked her, and then checked it for her uneasily.
Gu Nianxi sat there awkwardly. She was already very nervous, but she was even more nervous when he did this to her!
The seat space was a bit unsuitable. Gu Nianxi touched the adjustment button on the left side of the seat, but couldn't adjust it properly after working for a long time. The chair moved forward, backward, up and down, which was really embarrassing.
She looked at the people next to her and saw Su Yuheng's mouth pursed into a straight line, with a half-smiling expression on his face, which was very hurtful.
He was laughing at her.
Being laughed at by him made Gu Nianxi a little anxious. Because she was too nervous, she planned to adjust the seat to a certain distance at will and just drive out.
But she didn't know that she looked funny like this, with her back straight and her chest almost touching the steering wheel.
"A space like yours would be very uncomfortable."
Su Yuheng said and came closer. Gu Nianxi gasped in fright. His body was almost lying on her lap. Gu Nianxi raised her hands nervously and looked ahead as if surrendering.
When he adjusted her position, Gu Nianxi did not dare to move, her whole body felt hot with embarrassment.
Su Yuheng stood up. Gu Nianxi thought the alarm was lifted, but she never thought that his face stopped in front of her.
The two of them looked at each other in the silent air. Gu Nianxi stared at her eyes behind her sunglasses and her breathing became more and more careful.
"Are you ready?" she asked weakly, quickly breaking the ambiguous situation.
Su Yuheng hummed and returned to his seat naturally. He reached out and set a destination on the navigation system.
"Let's go."
Gu Nianxi breathed out and held the steering wheel firmly. She looked ahead nervously and encouraged herself in her heart.
Gu Nianxi! You can do it! Come on! If you take this step, you will have a different life! Come on!
"This is the left turn light, right turn light, this is the brake...this is the accelerator...it is D gear, P gear...reverse gear...where is the start button of this car?"
After groping around in the car, Gu Nianxi looked at the person next to her with a confused expression, and saw that his face was timid and... ugly.
Gu Nianxi touched her nose and smiled awkwardly at him.
"Forget it, I'll find a driver."
Gu Nianxi took out her phone and suddenly a big hand pressed down on the screen.
"No, you can do it." He smiled slightly, and his indifferent expression moved Gu Nianxi inexplicably.
"Aren't you afraid?" Gu Nianxi asked him.
He shook his head and said softly to her: "Don't worry, I'm lucky."
His words shocked Gu Nianxi. He looked calm and calm, as if he had seen through the past of the world. What kind of experiences had he had to have the stable state of Mount Tai at this moment.
Gu Nianxi looked at him in trance, but was suddenly interrupted by his words.
"Doctor Gu, twenty minutes have passed."
"..."
A burst of crows flew over her head, and Gu Nianxi quickly looked for the start button. She searched everywhere but could not find the start button. At this moment, the person next to her held her hand. Gu Nianxi was so frightened that she was about to throw it away when her index finger fell on her right hand.
On a big button on the control.
He stared at her and lent her some strength. When she pressed the button, the car made a starting sound.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes, yes." Gu Nianxi stammered back, and withdrew her hand from his palm. She hurriedly looked forward to hide her shyness.
This man is really good at causing trouble. He can just tell her no with his mouth. Why does he do such ambiguous actions?
The car slowly drove out of the parking space. The speed was very slow. Gu Nianxi looked straight ahead. She was a little nervous at first, but then she gradually found the feeling. She was driving like a beginner, and she wanted to touch her whole face to the windshield.
.
"Relax."
Su Yuheng sat aside, reminding her step by step like a driving school instructor. Gu Nianxi listened to his instructions attentively, and became more confident the more she drove.
There was a tense atmosphere in the car. Along the way, Su Yuheng's eyes did not move away. Compared to Gu Nianxi who was driving, he was no less nervous than her. He was always worried that something might happen to her.
Gu Nianxi's cautious look was very cute. Perhaps because the speed was too slow, the overtaking drivers behind her all turned to look at her, and some even swore at her rudely.
She was not in a hurry and drove her car steadily.
"It seems that I am the only one who can drive a sports car at the speed of an electric car." Gu Nianxi glanced at Su Yuheng and joked.
When Su Yuheng saw her turning to look at him, he quickly pointed ahead, "Look ahead and don't talk."
"Oh." Gu Nianxi quickly stared at the road ahead.
His scared look made her a little funny. She didn't expect that he would be scared sometimes. He must regret letting her drive at this moment.
Gu Nianxi was thinking when she suddenly heard a soft voice coming from the side.
"You can do it."
His voice entered her heart, and these words gave her great encouragement. A sweet smile appeared on Gu Nianxi's lips, and she admired the man beside her from the bottom of her heart.
One of them dares to drive, the other dares to sit. They are both brave and brave.
"Thanks."
This thank you is a heartfelt thank you for a stranger being so patient with her.
At the traffic light intersection, the car slowly stopped. Gu Nianxi turned her face to look at him. Unexpectedly, he had taken off his sunglasses.
His elbows rested on the car window, and his palms dragged his chin. He leaned lazily on the back of the passenger seat, seeming to be thinking about something. His eyes were blurred as he looked ahead, with the winter sunshine shining on his porcelain-white face.
, adding a touch of gentleness to the cold face.
"drop--"
The sound of the horn woke Gu Nianxi up. She was so frightened that she came to her senses and found that the car light had turned green. She started the car in a panic and drove away quickly.
Su Yuheng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, glanced at her, with an intriguing smile on his lips.
"Focus, don't look around."
"good."
Gu Nianxi bit her lower lip in embarrassment, realizing that the man next to her was a very good teaser.
Forty minutes later, Gu Nianxi parked the car at the entrance of a private restaurant on the top of Jinshan Mountain. She breathed a sigh of relief after the car completely shut off.
She held the steering wheel excitedly, feeling very excited.
She finally drove the car to her destination without any problems!
She succeeded!
"Doctor Gu...is very powerful."
He looked at her with a frivolous tone and a careless smile that was very seductive.
Gu Nianxi swallowed her saliva and quickly turned her face away. She didn't dare to look at him, for fear that he would notice her nervousness.
She forced a smile and said to him, "Thank you." But in her heart, she was thinking, please don't look at me so ambiguously, okay?
"Get off the car."
Gu Nianxi got out of the car quickly. Su Yuheng looked at her running away, covering his lips and snickering.
The restaurant they came to was called Qian Qian Yimeng. It had a nice name and an elegant layout. The exterior of the restaurant was a Republic of China building. There were towering green bamboos and two stone lions on both sides of the grand door.
Stepping through the high threshold, what came into view was the waterside pavilion. There were several guests drinking tea and chatting in the pavilion. They saw Su Yuheng raising his hand to say hello. These men were his business partners.
Su Yuheng spoke to Gu Nianxi, and then went over to say hello to them. They didn't chat for a few words before returning to her side.
Gu Nianxi followed him through the antique corridor, and the beautiful sound of the guqin came to her ears. She looked around and saw a girl in Hanfu in a dark room. It turned out that she was playing the strings.
It's exquisite and sounds really nice.
As she walked along, Gu Nianxi was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. She was curious about everything. She didn't expect that a small restaurant could be so big inside.
This is really a nice and quiet place.
Su Yuheng led Gu Nianxi into the main hall, and an older man in a mandarin jacket came up to them and bowed to them.
"You are here, the private room is ready, please come with me."
The old man bent over and led them up to the second floor.
Gu Nianxi noticed that the details of the restaurant were all features of ancient architecture. The mahogany windows, the green bamboo outside the circular window openings, and the beautifully carved stair handrails all exuded nobility and elegance.
I didn't expect that there would be such a unique place at the top of Geumsan Mountain.
They entered the private room. On the right side of the private room was a round table, and on the left was a tea table. There was an antique shelf across the middle of the two rooms as a partition, and some vases and small objects were placed on the shelf for decoration.
Gu Nianxi looked at the layout of the private rooms and froze on the spot. Why did she feel like she had seen this place before?
"Come in." Su Yuheng took off his coat and handed it to the serving girl. The girl smiled and helped him hang the coat on the hanger.
He looked at the time and said to Gu Nianxi who was standing there: "It's not time to eat yet, let's drink some tea first."
Gu Nianxi said hello cautiously and followed him into the tea room.
Su Yuheng saw her looking around and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"I seem to have been somewhere, and it's very similar to here."
Su Yuheng paused and smiled, "The decoration style of the eating place is basically the same." After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and played with the tea set. The little girl just squatted beside him and helped him.
