Volume 1, Chapter 156 How can a genius have a dark history...
A few days before Xu Jingmo started school, the two of them went together to book a new house.
Du Ruo actually misses her current little home very much. It is filled with their warm memories, and she has no plans to move.
But my current address is good in every way except that there is no dedicated study room.
The simple desk and bookcase in the master bedroom are now totally insufficient for two people. They both have a lot of books, but they are in different fields and cannot be mixed together, so the space seems very crowded.
It is not comfortable to work at the coffee table for a long time. When squeezed at the desk, the office worker always moves to the bed to rest unconsciously. The concentration becomes worse, which greatly affects the work efficiency.
In short, they still needed a bigger house and had to move.
As long as you have enough money, buying a house is a pretty quick process.
After locking in the location and taking a liking to the floor and layout of the house, we quickly decided on a lake-view house within the Second Ring Road. It is a 320-square-meter duplex with north-south ventilation, one floor per household, and excellent privacy.
The house was originally delivered by the developer with fine decoration, so no major changes were needed. Xu Jingmo hired a designer to make a simple renovation according to the needs of the two of them, and they could move in a week later.
The house was paid in full by Xu Xingzhi. He didn't seem to have expected that they would choose such a simple house as their wedding house. He confirmed it several times and asked, "Are you going to buy this one?"
Du Ruo nodded affirmatively.
Compared to living in a secluded villa area, she still likes the feeling of living in the city. Looking at the lights of thousands of homes and the hustle and bustle of traffic at night, she can feel the atmosphere of fireworks.
After Du Qian heard that they had decided on the wedding house, he urged them to choose a car.
Xu Jingmo only got his driver's license last year and was only able to drive on the highway this year. He doesn't have much need for a car on a daily basis and has never really thought about buying one.
Du Ruo doesn't even have a driver's license.
Neither of them had a strong desire for a car, so they kept putting it off.
Du Qian was worried that he couldn't deliver the gift, and he urged Du Ruo to take the driving test as soon as possible.
Du Ruo thought it would be convenient to have a driver's license in case of emergency, so she asked Xu Jingmo to teach her how to drive before school started.
One of Xu Jingmo's friends runs a driving school at home, and that's where he got his driver's license.
For Du Ruo, Subject 1 is something that he can learn in just one hour and he can practice driving very quickly.
Xu Jingmo borrowed a place from someone and taught Du Ruo how to drive himself.
The training car used by the co-driver has a secondary brake so that he can control it at any time.
After getting in the car, Xu Jingmo introduced the vehicle functions to Du Ruo and then began to practice.
"Are you seated properly? Adjust the seat back, height, and front and back, and position yourself properly."
Du Ruo sat upright, nodded, adjusted his seat and fastened his seat belt.
Xu Jingmo: "Next, adjust the left and right rearview mirrors."
Du Ruo did as he was told.
Xu Jingmo: "There are four directions on the steering wheel: 9 o'clock, 12 o'clock, 3 o'clock, and 6 o'clock. Hold the 9 o'clock with your left hand and the 3 o'clock with your right hand."
Du Ruo held it obediently.
Xu Jingmo started the car and continued, "There are three pedals under your feet: clutch, brake, and accelerator. First, step on the clutch to get a feel for it."
Du Ruo hesitated for a moment.
Xu Jingmo asked: "What's wrong?"
Du Ruo asked in confusion: "There are three pedals here, but I only have two feet. What should I do later?"
“…”
Xu Jingmo suddenly couldn't help laughing, he came over, pinched her chin and kissed her hard, and said with a smile: "Ruobao, why are you so cute."
Du Ruo pushed him away in disgust, "Don't take advantage of me, can you teach me properly?"
Xu Jingmo explained with a smile: "The right foot needs to switch between the accelerator and the brake flexibly."
"Oh." Du Ruo carefully tested the clutch with her left foot, then looked at him with innocent eyes full of curiosity, "And then?"
Xu Jingmo showed her how to shift gears. After shifting the gear to 1st gear, he said softly, "Lift the clutch pedal slowly with your left foot. Don't lift it suddenly."
As soon as Du Ruo raised her left foot, the car suddenly stalled, which scared her. She looked at Xu Jingmo in horror and said, "What happened? Did I break the car?"
The more Xu Jing looked at her, the more he wanted to laugh. He never expected that the little genius turned out to be a hidden street killer.
After he changed the gear to neutral, he deliberately scared her: "Yes, the car is broken, what should I do?"
Du Ruo preemptively said, "You don't teach well."
Xu Jingmo laughed angrily, pinched her face and said, "Okay, okay, it's all my fault, right?"
Du Ruo: "Go and compensate them for their car. It's broken down. What should we do?"
Xu Jingmo nonchalantly pointed at his lips and said, "Kiss me, and I'll beg for mercy and not let you pay."
Du Ruo: "That's not good. If it's damaged, you'll have to pay for it."
Xu Jingmo said: "They have insurance, so they can repair it for free. It's just a matter of one word whether you use insurance or pay for it yourself."
Du Ruo went over and kissed him.
Xu Jingmo smiled and restarted the car, pretending to be surprised and asked: "Do you think I can open a car repair shop in the future?"
Du Ruo was still not sure what to do. She pulled his ear and twisted it, gritting her teeth and said, "Xu Jingmo, if you continue to mess with me, you will sleep on the floor tonight."
Xu Jingmo quickly begged for mercy: "I was wrong, wrong, wrong..."
Du Ruo snorted, "Teach me well!"
Xu Jingmo taught her again, "You must lift it slowly. If you lift it suddenly, the vehicle may stall easily."
This time, Du Ruo lifted the car slowly and carefully. The sound of the engine began to become lower and the car body began to shake gradually.
Xu Jingmo said: "Remember this feeling, this is called half-clutch."
The car body kept shaking, making Du Ruo nervous.
She held the steering wheel tightly and said softly: "Xu Jingmo, I'm a little nervous..."
Xu Jingmo released the handbrake and soothed her, "I'm here, don't be afraid, don't be nervous."
"Release the clutch and add gas at the same time."
Du Ruo looked ahead, as if he had made a great decision, and nodded: "Yeah, I'll try my best."
With a whoosh, the vehicle stalled again.
She stared at Xu Jingmo blankly.
Xu Jingmo also stared at her blankly.
"Come on, you better do your best."
“I added it.”
"...No, I mean you release the clutch and press the accelerator at the same time."
"…Then why don't you just say step on the gas? I thought you were telling me to step on the gas in my heart."
“………”
They were speechless.
Xu Jingmo whispered, "Ruobao, Brother Wang has been very idle recently. Wait until you pass the driving test and invite him back. Otherwise, he won't be able to earn enough money."
Du Ruo glared at him.
Xu Jingmo shut up honestly, "It's my fault, I didn't teach well, give me another chance and try again."
Du Ruo ordered: "Okay, okay, teach!"
Xu Jingmo nodded repeatedly, "Yes, sir."
He was worried whether he could pass the driving test or not. If he failed, he would have to take the blame.
After all, how can a genius have a dark history...
