Jiang Yue asked Wen Xi to inquire about Li Junzhong not to find out his conditions, but to know herself and her enemy so that she could come up with a better strategy.
She didn't believe that someone she'd never spoken to could actually like her.
Moreover, Li Junzhong didn't even pursue her; he just wanted to be her boyfriend. When people go on blind dates, they usually have to go out for a meal and stroll in the park first. She didn't put in any effort at all; she just wanted a boyfriend. Even if she did get together with him, he probably wouldn't value something that's too easy to get.
Most importantly, he is a good worker, one of the eight most important officials of this era. He is proud to the core and thinks that it is your good fortune that I have taken a liking to you, and you should cherish it. He also unconditionally obeys my orders.
Having lived in the countryside for almost a year and witnessed too many different kinds of relationships between couples, Jiang Yue no longer expects to find a particularly outstanding husband, but he must cherish her and treat her well, so that her life won't be difficult.
She wouldn't want a life like the women in the village who manage everything at home and outside, expecting their husbands and in-laws to serve them. She certainly wouldn't marry a man like that.
Everyone has the right to decide their future life. She wants to live a better life, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Soon, the day arrived when Qin Mi was going to teach Wen Xi how to drive. Wen Xi rode her electric bicycle to the grove, then put the bicycle away and walked the rest of the way.
As soon as I came out of the country road, I saw a car parked in front of the hitchhiking point across the street. I didn't expect Qin Mi to be here so early. The first bus hadn't even left yet!
Wen Xi reached into the basket and put a box of fried rice inside. Then she walked towards Qin Mi's car and knocked on the window.
"Xi, you're here?" Qin Mi opened the car window and was somewhat surprised to see Wen Xi standing outside.
He hadn't expected Wen Xi to arrive so early. Had she gotten up two hours ago?
"Brother Qin, you've come so early. You probably haven't had breakfast yet, right? I brought you a box of fried rice with eggs." Wen Xi handed the lunchbox and spoon to Qin Mi.
"Xi, thank you." Qin Mi took the lunchbox, then sat sideways in the seat, her long legs stretched out with her feet on the ground.
Qin Mi opened the lunchbox and saw that the white rice contained golden eggs, diced carrots, and glistening diced cured meat, which looked very tempting.
Qin Mi scooped a spoonful and put it in her mouth. Unexpectedly, it also had the sour taste of pickled cowpeas. The combination of several flavors was quite delicious.
Qin Mi gave Wen Xi a thumbs up, "Xi, it's delicious, thank you."
"I should be thanking you. You rarely get a day off, yet you still have to come out and teach me to drive, even interrupting your morning exercise," Wen Xi said somewhat apologetically.
Qin Mi finished the fried rice as quickly as possible, took a few sips of water, then got out of the car and let Wen Xi sit inside. He then leaned into the car and began to explain the function of each part of the car to Wen Xi.
Watching Qin Mi earnestly explain things to her, Wen Xi couldn't help but recall how Qin Mi taught her to drive a truck in the mission world. She wondered how much time had passed there, and what stories had unfolded around Qin Mi...
Qin Mi noticed Wen Xi looking at someone else through him again, so he reached out and patted her head. "Xi, I'm teaching you how to drive. What are you thinking about?"
Wen Xi snapped out of her daze and smiled sheepishly, "Brother Qin, please say it to me again."
Qin Mi smiled helplessly and then earnestly explained to Wen Xi again. After explaining for a while, Wen Xi said, "Brother Qin, I've remembered it all. I want to try driving it myself."
Qin Mi looked at Wen Xi with concern, "Xi, you must grip the steering wheel firmly, turn it only slightly, and keep a firm grip on the direction..."
"I understand, Brother Qin, don't worry, I'll be careful." Although she can drive, it was her first time driving Qin Mi's car, so she was definitely going to be careful to avoid damaging it.
Although she is very rich and can afford to lose money, isn't it just giving people reason to suspect that a seventeen-year-old girl who has no job suddenly comes out with so much money?
Moreover, this car belongs to the company, not Qin Mi's personal property. He can apply to use the car if he needs to, but if he damages the car to a total loss, Qin Mi will probably be severely punished. Therefore, she will be careful and will not implicate Qin Mi.
Qin Mi stepped aside, Wen Xi closed the car door, and then started the car step by step and drove forward. She had several driving experiences, so she drove quite steadily.
However, in Qin Mi's eyes, Wen Xi's 'steadiness' was clean and efficient. He did not expect that Wen Xi could drive so steadily on her first time driving. The car drove forward in a straight line without any swaying. Although there was some shaking, it was due to the poor road conditions, but the direction did not deviate at all.
Wen Xi is really talented at driving; he's much better at it than when he first tried driving!
Wen Xi drove forward for about two hundred meters, then turned around and stopped the car next to Qin Mi. She said to Qin Mi, "Brother Qin, get in the car, I'll take you for a ride."
"Xi, I didn't expect you to drive so steadily." Qin Mi was a little worried at first after getting into the car, but seeing how steadily Wen Xi was driving, her heart gradually calmed down.
Wen Xi smiled faintly, "Brother Qin taught me so well! Brother Qin, I'll treat you to a meal sometime!"
"There's no need to treat me to a meal, but could you cook for me once?" Qin Mi looked at Wen Xi with expectant eyes. Wen Xi's cooking skills were excellent, and he wanted to eat more after eating her. Moreover, there was a sense of familiarity in her cooking, as if he had eaten Wen Xi's cooking before.
"Sure, why not?" Wen Xi said with a smile. It was just cooking once, she could accept it.
Qin Mi leaned back in his seat and looked at Wen Xi. "Xi, you drive very well. Very few people can drive a car this well. After you practice for a while, I will take you to the Transportation Bureau to get your driver's license."
Wen Xi frowned. "Practice? Won't that be too much trouble?"
Practice not only requires a car, but Qin Mi also needs to drive the car to her, which takes up too much of Qin Mi's time.
"It's alright. I'll write to you beforehand and arrange a time for you to practice. After all, you're the first apprentice I've trained, and I definitely need to be responsible for you until you successfully graduate," Qin Mi said.
Actually, Wenxi's skill level is good enough to take the test now, but Qin Mi was worried that he hadn't explained enough to her, and if she didn't pass, how could she pass? That's why he decided to let her practice driving more and share his experience with her more often.
