She took the steering wheel of the bicycle from Chen Yan.
“Have you ever ridden one before?”
Jiang Ning thought about it and shook his head, "I've never ridden one."
She had never ridden one before.
In the past, there were too many cars on the street and she felt it was unsafe to ride a bicycle on the side of the road, so she gave up the challenge.
The reason I want to ride now is that there are very few cars on the road and it is very safe.
She was no longer afraid.
"Okay, you ride in front and I'll hold you from behind."
"Then let me explain it to you first. You can brake with both hands. The left one is the front brake, and the right one is the rear brake. Remember it?"
As Chen Yan spoke, he took the bicycle from Jiang Ning and started to operate it for her one by one.
Jiang Ning watched very seriously.
"When riding a bicycle, if you encounter a downhill slope, remember to put your hand on the brake. If you feel that the bicycle is going too fast, you can slowly squeeze the rear brake on your right hand, or you can slowly squeeze the front brake with your left hand."
"But..." Chen Yan paused.
Looking at Jiang Ning, he said seriously, "You can't squeeze both brakes at the same time, especially when going downhill. Don't squeeze the front brake first, or I'm afraid you'll be thrown out by the inertia of the bicycle. Remember to squeeze the right-hand rear brake first. This is very important, okay? Remember it."
Jiang Ning nodded, looking confident: "I understand. It's so simple, I can definitely learn it."
"Okay, let's try it first." Chen Yan handed the bicycle to her again.
Jiang Ning's face was filled with the expression, "This is nothing, there's no way I don't know how to do it."
With this idea in mind, she started learning how to ride a bike.
But the reality is not as simple as she thought.
Less than five minutes later, Jiang Ning felt that the bicycle might have a mind of its own.
"Chen Yan, what's going on? Why does the bike fall over as soon as I get on it? And it feels like the steering wheel of this bike doesn't obey my commands at all."
"I used all my strength to control the steering wheel, but it still didn't obey me. It kept twisting and turning. My arms are so sore from trying so hard to control the steering wheel."
Jiang Ning was a little discouraged.
How come this is completely different from what she thought.
Isn’t it easy to learn how to ride a bicycle?
Why was it so difficult for her now?
Chen Yan listened to Jiang Ning's words and smiled: "You have to use your skills when riding a bicycle, not brute force. Otherwise, you won't be able to lift your arms when you wake up the next day."
"Besides, it's not that the bike can't stand up. It's that you haven't mastered the balance between you and the bike, so the bike can't stand up. You just need to practice more."
"That's it?"
Chen Yan nodded and said sincerely, "Okay, try again. I'll be holding the back seat for you, so I guarantee you won't fall."
"Okay, Chen Yan, you have to hold me steady for me." Jiang Ning was a little nervous.
"No problem, go ahead."
After great effort, Jiang Ning finally learned how to ride a bicycle.
Why do you say it is reluctant?
Because Chen Yan couldn't let go of the bicycle behind him. If he did, Jiang Ning in front of him would definitely lose his balance and fall.
And Jiang Ning has another fatal problem: she doesn't know how to turn.
She only drives in a straight line.
"Okay, that's all you need to learn today. I'll continue teaching you on the weekend. I'll take you to and from get off work these few days."
After hearing this, Jiang Ning felt like a frost-bitten eggplant, thinking that he was going to trouble him again.
Chen Yan looked at her and couldn't help but comfort her, "You've learned so much today, it's already very good. Keep working hard, you will definitely learn it by the weekend. Don't lose heart."
Well, since the boss said so and guaranteed that she would learn it by the weekend, she stopped worrying.
Enjoy the treatment of being picked up and dropped off at get off work these days.
"Oh, I'm just too happy. How did you buy this bicycle? I remember you need a bicycle ticket to buy it, right?"
Jiang Ning was a little confused. Chen Yan was with her almost every day. How could she not know that he had a bicycle ticket?
"I saw that you were too tired from commuting, so I went to the black market to exchange bicycle tickets for someone." Chen Yan replied calmly with his hands in his pockets.
"Black market? When did you go there? How come I don't know about it?"
"Last time you went to compete, didn't we wait for you at the entrance of your workplace? We walked all the way here from home, but it was quite far. And since you won the competition, you'd have to work here. Walking to and from get off work every day was too tiring, so I went to the black market and bought a bicycle ticket. You know, you need a ticket to buy a bicycle. Otherwise, I would have moved the bicycle home for you on the day of your competition."
It seems that Chen Yan spent a lot of resources to buy this bicycle.
Jiang Ning didn't know what to say to express his gratitude.
She has been with Chen Yan for such a long time, and from the beginning she just wanted to cling to the big boss, so she took him in and kept him by her side.
But the longer Jiang Ning spent with him, the more she realized that Chen Yan was a very considerate person who could take good care of her emotions.
Moreover, Chen Yan always considers her first in everything he does, and only thinks of himself secondly.
She now truly regards Chen Yan as a good friend.
"Thanks."
Chen Yan was surprised to hear Jiang Ning's words, "What's wrong with you today? You seem a little abnormal."
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Isn't this just a thank you for letting me not have to walk to and from get off work every day? And before I learned how to ride a bike, you even acted as my driver to take me to and from get off work every day. Isn't this just a thank you?"
......
Soon the two of them arrived home.
Jiang Xiaomei had already prepared dinner and was waiting for them to come back.
Jiang Weimin was surprised to see Chen Yan pushing a 28-inch bicycle in.
After all, it is not easy to get a bicycle at this time.
"Where did you get the bicycle?"
"Chen Yan bought this today. It looks nice, doesn't it? I'll rely on it to commute to get off work from now on." Jiang Ning showed off to Jiang Weimin.
Jiang Weimin knew that Chen Yan was going to pick up his sister today, but he didn't expect that he actually got a bicycle.
No wonder he went out so early this afternoon. It turned out he was going to ride his bike.
"So, Ning girl, can you ride a bike now? Did you ride it back?" Jiang Weimin looked expectant.
Jiang Ning felt embarrassed for once.
"Brother, we just bought a bicycle. Currently, only Chen Yan knows how to ride it, so he has to pick me up and drop me off at get off work recently, but it won't be for long. This week I want Chen Yan to teach me how to ride a bicycle. I'm sure I can learn it."
"It's okay, he'll just pick you up and drop you off at get off work. My little sister and I are here to take care of the braised food stall, so you can rest assured, there will be absolutely no problem, but..."
Jiang Weimin hesitated to speak.
