Chapter 38 Why Are You Glancing at My Crotch?
The driving school is very remote, about an hour away from home.
Lin Yan didn't expect that Xing Yu would drive over to pick her up even though his leg hadn't recovered yet.
The car drove slowly on the slippery road, and the sound of the windshield wipers swinging left and right covered up the subtle awkwardness caused by the silence.
"Do you know Coach Shi?" Lin Yan spoke first.
"His son is learning fighting from me."
No wonder……
After she finished speaking, Lin Yan turned her eyes calmly, occasionally glancing at Xing Yu's left leg which had not yet healed.
I wanted to say something, but I felt awkward.
"Friend." Xing Yu's casual voice interrupted her gaze: "Why are you glancing at my crotch?"
"..." Lin Yan retracted her gaze: "Coach Xing, I'm looking at your leg. I value my life as you're driving while injured."
"Is that so?" Xing Yu tapped the steering wheel lightly with his index finger. "I thought you wanted to 'drive'."
This driving is not that driving.
Lin Yan didn't want to be led astray by him, so she simply kept silent.
I looked out the window, watching the raindrops streak across the car window one by one.
"Close your eyes and rest for a while." Xing Yu turned the air conditioning temperature in the car to 26 degrees. The joking tone in his voice just now completely disappeared, leaving only the concern of a man: "Practicing driving is tiring, take a break."
Lin Yan leaned back in the car seat, turned her head towards him, looked at his deep profile, and couldn't help but ask a question.
"Xing Yu, how did you know I was learning to drive?"
The red light at the intersection ahead came on and the car stopped.
Xing Yu tilted his head, his eyes piercing her. He asked, "Then answer me first, why do you suddenly want to get a driver's license?"
My heart skipped a beat at an inopportune moment, and I twitched my knuckles involuntarily.
I felt a little panicky, like being caught cheating on an exam.
What is she feeling guilty about...
There's nothing to feel guilty about.
"What happened in Jingbei that night made me realize that being able to drive might help me escape death." Lin Yan shrugged slightly, "So I took the test."
Xing Yu lowered his eyelids and stared at her for a long while, until the horn of the car behind him sounded, and then he shifted his gaze to the front...
In the evening, Lin Yan received a call from He Lan himself.
Invite her to her birthday party.
The boss had spoken personally, and she really had no way of refusing.
When I went out and went downstairs, I saw the familiar SUV parked on the side of the road.
Xing Yu was leaning against the car, waiting for her downstairs as if he had foresight.
Lin Yan didn't want to go with him, fearing that He Lan would see her and misunderstand her.
He took out his cell phone to hail a taxi, but Xing Yu spoke first.
"He Lan said that since we live in the same neighborhood, he asked me to give you a ride."
Lin Yan took the opportunity to give him a shot of caution: "Xing Yu, don't be so careless later. He Lan likes you, so don't cause me any trouble."
Xing Yu didn't respond, but opened the passenger door and said, "Get in."
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the hotel.
He Lan was dressed very casually today and didn't look like the birthday boy at all.
Apart from her, there were only Su Xin and Mo Kai.
She was a little surprised, thinking that He Lan would invite other colleagues from the company.
"We're waiting for you two, please sit down!" He Lan asked the waiter to serve the dishes and asked them to sit down quickly.
In order to avoid suspicion, Lin Yan deliberately sat between Mo Kai and Su Xin.
As for Xing Yu, he could only sit next to He Lan no matter how he sat.
Su Xin glanced at Xing Yu secretly, and whispered to Lin Yan with her hands clasped together.
"Sister Lin Yan, why are you so high-profile? You actually came here with Coach Xing!"
Lin Yan didn't want to explain: "Talk less and eat more."
After the dishes were served, everyone started eating.
He Lan filled his glass with wine and raised it towards them: "Everyone, today is a good day! Everyone, please help yourself. After you're full, we can go to the next game and then go drink and sing karaoke! Anyway, our Coach Xing will pay for everything today!"
"So, let's all raise our glasses and wish our Coach Xing a happy birthday! Make a lot of money and find your partner soon!"
Su Xin and Mo Kai had already picked up their wine glasses and stood up, but Lin Yan had not yet recovered.
It turns out it’s not He Lan’s birthday.
It’s Xing Yu’s birthday!
"Lin Yan, what are you standing there for?" He Lan called her with a smile on his face, a meaningful smile on his face: "Clink a toast with Coach Xing!"
Lin Yan reacted, picked up the wine glass and looked at Xing Yu: "Happy birthday."
The wine was already at his lips when Xing Yu suddenly spoke.
"You can't drink much, don't drink."
He Lan leaned back in his chair and said sarcastically, "Coach Xing, how do you know Lin Yan can't drink much?"
Mo Kai continued, "Brother Yu knows everything about Sister Lin Yan. He knows everything!"
The only ones who were embarrassed were Lin Yan and the bewildered Su Xin.
In order to prevent Xing Yu from losing control of his mouth.
Lin Yan tried not to communicate with him and ate her meal in silence with her head down.
Su Xin is a person with a strong sense of justice, and is concerned about the secret interaction between Xing Yu and Lin Yan.
She silently felt sorry for He Lan.
He gave her a comforting look: "Sister Hong, are you...are you okay?"
He Lan smiled but refused to explain: "Sister is fine."
Su Xin pursed her lips, then leaned close to Lin Yan's ear and sighed earnestly.
"Sister Lin Yan, look. Sister Hong must be trying her best to hide her inner sadness with her smile. Even a fool can see that you and Coach Xing are not simple. You... this... hey..."
Lin Yan's expression was gloomy: "Stop talking and eat quickly."
"What are you two whispering about?" Mo Kai interrupted Su Xin, noticing her sneaky behavior, "If you have any secrets, tell us and share them."
Su Xin shook her head like she was fiddling with something: "No, no."
Mo Kai ignored her and raised his glass to toast Xing Yu again.
"Brother Yu, happy birthday. I wish you and Sister Lin Yan a happy birthday..."
“Bang!”
Before he could finish his words, Su Xin slapped Mo Kai's thigh and winked at him, "Can you please shut up... and consider Sister Hong's feelings..."
Mo Kai was confused: "No, why did you hit me?"
"I'm going to hit you."
"Alright." Xing Yu said calmly, "Let's eat."
After dinner, they rushed to the next scene.
Lin Yan deliberately took a car with Su Xin and Mo Kai.
Leaving their own world to Xing Yu and He Lan.
He Lan asked Xing Yu for a cigarette, and looked at the departing car while blowing out smoke rings.
"Hey, Old Xing, why haven't you explained our relationship to Lin Yan yet? Are you waiting for me to explain it to you?"
"No need. I'll talk to her myself."
He Lan gave him a sympathetic look: "By the way, do you know how to pursue someone? It's been over a month, and I see that you and Lin Yan have made no progress."
"She's slow and not in a hurry."
"I don't care." He Lan held the cigarette between his fingers and suddenly changed the subject: "By the way, when will Brother Xun come to Longping County to see you again?"
"Why? Are you still obsessed with him?"
"A graceful gentleman is always sought after by a beautiful woman. I'm old enough to admire a pretty boy like Wang Yixun. Is there something wrong with that?"
"No problem." Xing Yu raised his eyebrows: "It just so happens that he said he broke up, you might have a chance."
