Chapter 39: Friction, Friction
Tian Yuling gave an awkward laugh and said, "I also just passed the test recently. However, I drove quite well during my lessons, and I even drove here all by myself today. It’s just that I got a bit nervous earlier, no worries."
Everyone’s face darkened, and Li Yue said, "Yu Ling, are you sure you can do this? I feel like we’re in danger here."
"Really, it’s fine. I was just a bit nervous when starting the car, but I’m okay now," Tian Yuling said as she slowly released the brake, and the car finally began to move forward gently.
However, seeing her hands gripping the steering wheel tightly and her body leaning slightly forward, it was evident that she was still nervous.
The expressions on everyone in the car were grim, sitting in a car with a novice driver was scary enough, but having a female novice driver made it even more frightening.
None of them felt like joking anymore; all were staring straight ahead.
Miao Xuanxuan was doing the same, leaning forward to look ahead, meanwhile forgetting that she was completely sitting on Song Xiaodong’s lap.
While Song Xiaodong enjoyed it, safety was important too. Such a tense atmosphere could only make the driver, Tian Yuling, more nervous, thereby increasing the likelihood of an accident.
So he smiled and said, "This car is really new, looks like it was just picked up, right?"
Tian Yuling immediately responded, "Yes, I just bought it yesterday afternoon. I had to haggle my mom for a long time before she agreed to buy it for me."
Song Xiaodong said, "Hehe, having a car is convenient. I should consider buying one for commuting too."
Li Yue quickly jumped in, "What kind of car are you thinking of buying? Xuanxuan told me you came back from abroad; you must be quite wealthy, right?"
