Chapter 605: Close Your Eyes and Wait for Death
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Under Qin Mucheng’s command, Ji Yuanyuan successfully started.
The events of her previous life were too distant, Ji Yuanyuan could barely remember them.
Therefore, as the car started moving, Ji Yuanyuan’s heart also started to race. Her mind was in a mess and she only knew to follow Qin Mucheng’s instructions, “Try turning left. Yes, turn the steering wheel to the left. Turn it back a little. It’s too left… Stop, brake, step on the brake…”
Probably because Ji Yuanyuan had used too much force when turning the corner, the car was a little unstable.
Qin Mucheng reminded her to step on the brakes nervously.
Ji Yuanyuan naturally remembered that the brake was on the left, but she accidentally stepped on the accelerator when she stepped on it.
The car sped off, and Ji Yuanyuan panicked. After being stunned for two seconds, she retracted her foot and stepped on the brakes.
When the car stopped, Ji Yuanyuan nervously wiped the non-existent cold sweat off her forehead.
Fortunately, they practiced driving here, and the s.p.a.ce was big enough. Something might happen if she went to a place specialized in driving.
She tilted her head and looked at Qin Mucheng, wanting to praise him for being calm. 5
Fortunately, Qin Mucheng did not shout when the car went out of control just now.
If he shouted, she would be even more nervous, and her rhythm would be disrupted. She would definitely not be able to calm down so quickly.
However, she looked over, she realized that Qin Mucheng was leaning against the back of the chair with his eyes closed.
His hand was tightly gripping the handle of the seat.
Looking closely, his breathing was a little hurried.
“What kind of expression is that?” Ji Yuanyuan asked.
Qin Mucheng let go of her hand, “Scared expressioin.”
Ji Yuanyuan did not know whether to laugh or cry, “Are you afraid too?”
Qin Mucheng finally opened his eyes and looked at Ji Yuanyuan. He let out a breath of turbid air and said softly, “I’m also a human. Why can’t I be afraid?” “Then why are you so scared you’re closing your eyes and not saying anything?” Ji Yuanyuan asked curiously.
When people were afraid, didn’t they subconsciously open their eyes and shout?
Why was Qin Mucheng’s fear different from others’ fear?
“Close your eyes and wait for death,” replied Qin Mucheng naturally.
“Bah! Why are you talking about death for no reason?” Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly said. “We’ll be lucky and live to 80!”
Qin Mucheng tilted his head and finally smiled.
Ji Yuanyuan took a deep breath and exhaled, “It’s my first time driving, and was too nervous. I’m feeling better now. Should I continue?”
After a pause, she added, “Do you dare?”
Qin Mucheng nodded resolutely and grabbed the handle again, “I dare. Continue!”
After experiencing that earlier incident, Ji Yuanyuan was indeed much calmer.
After a morning of practice, she finally got the hang of it.
They practiced until 11 pm and Qin Mucheng brought Ji Yuanyuan to the place where Lin Nan had arranged to have dinner.
Lin Nan chose a relatively cheap small restaurant to not cause any psychological pressure on the little sister.
She was afraid the little sister would fight to pay the bill out of grat.i.tude.
If she chose a place that was too expensive, the little sister would not be able to afford it.
It had to be said that although Lin Nan’s personality wasn’t outstanding, she was worthy of the four words ‘beautiful and kindhearted.’
When Ji Yuanyuan arrived at the agreed location, Lin Nan was already waiting for her at the restaurant entrance.
Seeing Ji Yuanyuan and Lin Nan meet, Qin Mucheng felt relieved and left to eat. He had no choice. His fiancee didn’t want to bring him along, so he could only find food alone.
Lin Nan held Ji Yuanyuan’s arm and said in a low voice, “Your boyfriend is quite rich. He changed his car again?”
Ji Yuanyuan was not too willing to discuss Qin Mucheng with Lin Nan and the rest, so she changed the topic, “Is she here yet? Why did you think of funding this little sister back then?”
Lin Nan shook her head, “Not yet. She just texted me and said that she was on her way. Actually, it hadn’t been for long. It was just last month. I accidentally saw a message on the news. As little as 300 yuan a month could help a child fulfill their dream of going to college.”
When she spoke, her tone was a little emotional, “Sometimes, when I go out for a meal, it’s more than 300 yuan. However, it was able to let a child go to university. I felt very emotional at that time. I took the initiative to contact the orphanage and sponsored one of the pretty girls.”
“You sponsored her because she’s pretty?” Ji Yuanyuan was a little amused as she asked, “When we get back, give me the contact information of the welfare inst.i.tute. I’ll sponsor a child too.”
Lin Nan shook her head, “It’s definitely not enough just because she’s pretty. I chose her because she’s from the same place as you. Look at how good I am to you. Why don’t you dump your boyfriend and follow me…”
Lin Nan joked with Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan could not help but laugh, “I won’t. My boyfriend treats me better.”
Lin Nan pursed her lips and reached to cover Ji Yuanyuan’s face, “I suggest you don’t show off your love in front of me. It’s not good for me.”
“Can’t we go in and wait?” Ji Yuanyuan laughed and suggested. “Book a table, drink some water, and wait for her!”
It was autumn, and the wind outside was still a little cold.
When Lin Nan heard this, she brought Ji Yuanyuan in.
After they entered, the two chose a seat by the window, table 11.
The waiter brought the menu over, and Ji Yuanyuan lifted her head to take the menu.
Suddenly, she froze.
She looked at another corner where a man and a woman were eating together. The woman’s back was facing Ji Yuanyuan and the others, so she could not see the woman’s face.
The man was facing Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan could see his face.
That face was very familiar to Ji Yuanyuan.
In her previous life, she had also spent some time with him day and night.
It was Zhao Tianhua. It was really Zhao Tianhua.
She clenched her fists tightly under the table and did not lose her composure. Lin Nan sensed something was wrong with Ji Yuanyuan and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong with you?”
Ji Yuanyuan forced herself to retract her gaze and shook her head reluctantly.
She said in a low voice, “I’m fine. You can order first.”
Lin Nan hesitated momentarily and lowered her head to order the dishes.
Ji Yuanyuan also lowered her head, but her mind was not on the dishes.
After waiting so many years, she finally had the chance to take revenge.
Zhao Tianhua!
Recalling the events of her previous life, a ball of fire burned in Ji Yuanyuan’s heart.
When she lowered her head, she only felt a suffocating feeling in her chest.
Helpless, she could only raise her head and let her breath flow.
However, she was afraid Lin Nan would see through it, so she could only turn her head out of the window.
The scenery outside the window finally made her look better.
But soon, her gaze froze again.
After seeing the person clearly, Ji Yuanyuan could only smile bitterly. What kind of luck was this today? Why did she encounter enemies one after another?
She retracted her gaze and s.n.a.t.c.hed the menu from Lin Nan’s hand.. After standing up and holding her hand, she asked the waiter, “Excuse me, is there a bathroom here?”
