The next day, Han Yi drove up to Du Yuhan and asked her directly, "You really know how to drive? I took the blame for you yesterday, so you have to tell me the truth today."
Du Yuhan knew Han Yixian had asked her first, and she smiled, "The truth is, I really can drive. Don't believe me? I'll take you for a spin."
Han Yixian said, "Of course I need to see how well you drive, otherwise I won't feel at ease. Let's go, let's go to the suburban highway and you drive while I take a look."
After leaving home, Han Yi drove Du Yuhan out of the city.
Once they reached the main road in the suburbs, Du Yuhan sat in the driver's seat, while Han Yixian sat in the passenger seat, keeping a close eye on her, afraid that she might make a mistake and cause danger.
Du Yuhan smiled at Han Yixian's worried expression, then skillfully shifted gears and depressed the clutch, and the car started moving smoothly.
Han Yi could tell from Du Yuhan's skillful driving that she was truly a good driver. He was relieved. However, he discovered another talent of Du Yuhan's, making her seem increasingly mysterious. He understood her less and less.
Du Yuhan parked the car steadily on the side of the road and turned to ask, "How about it? Are you relieved now?"
Han Yixian looked at Du Yuhan and said, "I really don't know what you can't do. If this continues, I feel like I'm not good enough for you."
Du Yuhan chuckled and said, "When did you, Han Yixian, become so insecure?"
Han Yixian sighed and said, "I've never had any confidence in front of you. When I started to like you, I was disabled and didn't dare to express my feelings. Later, I finally mustered up the courage to confess, and when we understood each other, I hurt you. Since then, I've lived in guilt and regret."
Later, when I found out you weren't dead, I was afraid you wouldn't forgive me. Besides, you have many outstanding young talents around you, younger than me, and I was afraid your family would think I was too old.
If I didn't know you had feelings for me, I wouldn't know what to do.
Du Yuhan felt a pang of sadness upon hearing Han Yixian's words, and her nose also stung. She pursed her lips and said, "Silly boy, am I the kind of person who would easily change my mind? If it wasn't you, it wouldn't have been anyone else."
To tell you the truth, I'll either never get married in this life, or I'll definitely marry you. Are you satisfied now?
Han Yixian was overjoyed to hear Du Yuhan's heartfelt words. Du Yuhan's words were the greatest affirmation and encouragement for him.
Han Yixian couldn't resist turning around and pulling Du Yuhan onto his lap, holding her in his arms.
Du Yuhan was stunned by Han Yixian's sudden action. Why did he hug her in his arms without warning?
Du Yuhan, nestled in Han Yixian's arms, quickly turned to look out of the car to check her surroundings. Seeing no one was around, she breathed a sigh of relief and playfully patted Han Yixian's arm, scolding, "You scared me to death! What if someone saw us? They'd definitely think you were being a jerk!"
Han Yixian laughed and said, "Don't worry, there's definitely no one outside. I've been watching, no one will see us. Just let me hug you. I was so excited after hearing what you said that I couldn't help but want to hug you. Yuhan, have I been given the opportunity to test you?"
Du Yuhan, nestled in Han Yixian's arms, didn't even look at him and said, "If you say so, then so be it."
Han Yixian happily kissed Du Yuhan's forehead and said, "Thank you, Yuhan. I will seize the opportunity and try to marry you as soon as possible."
After saying that, Han Yixian didn't hold Du Yuhan anymore and put her back in the driver's seat. If someone saw them, it wouldn't be good for Du Yuhan's reputation, and he couldn't let his happiness make him forget himself. Once they became a real couple, no one could interfere with how he hugged her.
He had officially entered the probationary period, which meant that he was not far from marrying Du Yuhan. How could he not be overjoyed?
After calming himself down, Han Yixian said, "Alright, you'll be the driver today. Let's go home. I told your mother that you'd have dinner at my house today, and then when it's almost time, you can drive to pick up the supplies."
Du Yuhan nodded and said, "Then let's go to your place, I'll cook you a nice meal."
Du Yuhan skillfully drove the car back to Han Yixian's residence.
She hadn't eaten much of what she had prepared for Han Yixian and the others, so she decided to make them something more substantial today.
Stir-fried shredded pork with vinegar, stir-fried potatoes with chili peppers, dried shrimp and winter melon, seaweed and egg drop soup, and rice. Du Yuhan made large portions of everything.
Han Yixian, of course, was learning and assisting from the sidelines.
When Liu Gang returned from get off work, the food was already on the table.
When Du Yuhan saw Liu Gang return, she said, "We've been waiting for you. Go wash your hands and eat."
Liu Gang knew he was in for a good meal as soon as he saw Du Yuhan. He was overjoyed when he saw the food on the table after washing his hands.
The three of them had lived together for two years and then sat down to eat without any formality.
Du Yuhan ate very little, so she kept using serving chopsticks to put food on their plates. These two had really lost a lot of weight recently, and Du Yuhan felt sorry for them.
Watching the two eat, Du Yuhan asked, "Brother Han, how are Aunt Han and the others? Did Qiwen take the college entrance exam this year?"
Han Yixian said, "Qiwen got into Peking University, where he's studying mechanical design."
Du Yuhan said happily, "That's great! You got into Peking University. Studying mechanical engineering has a very promising future."
Han Yixian said, "Auntie is very satisfied with his admission to Peking University. She thinks that Qiwen made such great progress because of your and Gangzi's encouragement. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have been able to get into any university, let alone Peking University."
Du Yuhan smiled and said, "Now Aunt Han can rest assured. Both of our family members are college graduates; they'll be pillars of the nation in the future. It would be great if Qiwen could come to work in City C after graduation. We could study and discuss things together then."
Han Yixian smiled and said, "I believe your wish will come true soon. Qiwen said that he will come to find me after graduation and wants to work in City C."
"That's great! Now we can get together again," Du Yuhan said with a smile.
Liu Gang said, "Qiwen wishes he could come right now, but he can only wait until graduation. That's another four years. Maybe he can come during winter or summer vacation. He doesn't know you're still alive. If he did, he would have come to see you long ago."
Han Yixian said, "I didn't tell him your news right away because I was afraid he would insist on coming here and miss the reporting time. I'll tell him when he's on winter break, then he can come whenever he wants."
After dinner, Liu Gang insisted on washing the dishes. After dark, Han Yi went out and returned in a car not long after.
It turned out that Han Yixian was worried about Du Yuhan going to pick up supplies alone at night. He planned to go to the pick-up location with Du Yuhan and then come back to pick up Gu Qishen. This way, with Han Yixian accompanying her, Du Yuhan would spend less time alone and would be safer.
Du Yuhan had no choice but to agree to Han Yixian's approach.
