Chapter 105: About to Become the Sixth-Time Failure of Driver’s License Test Level 2!

“What the f***, is this place really haunted???”

Less than a minute after the three-person filming team left, Gu Yin had already driven away, taking a completely different route, so he didn’t run into them at all.

Those three guys were so stupid. They circled the area several times, even using flashlights to search the small alleys. Not only did they fail to find Gu Yin’s vehicle, but they didn’t even realize that Gu Yin’s live stream was still on…

“Could it be… haunted?!”

The guy in the hat was huddled in a ball. This guy seemed to be really timid, his whole body curled up in the seat, sometimes raising his hand to draw crosses on his head, chest, and shoulders, sometimes clasping his hands together to pray and chant. With such a mixed-up belief system, even Buddha and God wouldn’t bless him!

“This… Holy shit…”

The fat guy in the backseat was also feeling a bit spooky. They had been circling this pitch-black place for several rounds, okay…

Fortunately, Lin Ge remained calm and said:

“Is their live stream still on?”

“Oh, right!”

At this moment, the fat guy finally reacted and immediately took out his phone to check…

“No… they…???”

He shouldn’t have looked. Once he did, his face was filled with a question mark!

Gu Yin and the others were already on the main road, driving leisurely, chatting and laughing along the way.

“How did they get away?!” The fat guy was questioning his own sanity.

They had been tailing Gu Yin’s car the whole time. He disappeared from their sight in less than 10 seconds when he was turning, how on earth did he escape! It was simply beyond belief!

“Check the playback.” Lin Ge also stopped the car.

The main road didn’t have as few cars as their current location. To catch up, they would have to drive over a hundred miles per hour. Let alone the possibility of a traffic accident at that speed, the traffic police would soon smell something fishy.

Since they had already lost them, chasing after them now would be difficult. Lin Ge simply decided to park and check what happened.

“Okay.” The fat guy nodded.

“Buddha bless, Buddha bless…” The guy in the hat was still frantically chanting, making the other two guys nauseous.

How Gu Yin had evaded their sight with a “hiding in plain sight” maneuver was perfectly displayed before the three of them.

“No, this…”

After watching it, the fat guy was dumbfounded!

His mouth twitched, and he exclaimed: “So that kid was on the opposite lane after turning at that intersection???”

In the video, they stupidly drove away right in front of Gu Yin, Xia Xiangsi, and Mengmeng.

Gu Yin even mocked them afterward!

How embarrassing!

“Such a pity!” The fat guy gritted his teeth.

“…”

It’s worth mentioning that Lin Ge remained silent from beginning to end.

He only remembered that after turning, he had accidentally glimpsed a familiar yellow license plate…

Although it was just a glance, the impression was deep. He initially thought that the position and distance made it unlikely to be Gu Yin. Unexpectedly, it really was Gu Yin!

This kid, he was able to park into that spot so precisely!

His driving skills…

Were a bit terrifying!

As the saying goes, outsiders see the excitement, insiders see the doorway. The fat guy was only angry and regretful, but Lin Ge saw the technical content of Gu Yin’s drifting into the parking space…

This kid, looking so young, was actually quite scary!

Meanwhile, the fat guy was still saying: “Next time, no matter what, we won’t let them escape! I’ll keep the live stream on the whole time, and I don’t believe we can still lose them…”

The reason they turned off the live stream before was simply because Gu Yin was right in front of them, how could they possibly lose him?

Who would have thought that they could lose him while following right behind him!

This time, they learned their lesson. They definitely wouldn’t make the same mistake next time.

However…

The moment the fat guy finished speaking, Lin Ge beside him suddenly said without warning:

“With his skills, even if you keep the live stream on and stare at him, he can easily shake us off…”

At this moment, Lin Ge finally understood why Gu Yin had been so confident when they watched his live stream before he even graduated from driving school.

“What?”

The fat guy was immediately surprised…

“No, it’s just a drifting turn, is it that exaggerated?”

Logically, any professional racer who knows how to drift would basically know how to drift into a turn, right?

What’s so technically demanding about that?

To this…

Lin Ge sneered and said bluntly:

“But you have to see what kind of parking space he went into!”

“That parking space, you can only use a reverse drift to get out. In that situation, him drifting in after turning was already very difficult, and it was at night without streetlights…”

“Even a slight misjudgment, either the car in front or behind would easily get scratched!”

“With his skills, getting rid of us would be effortless?!”

Lin Ge wasn’t deliberately praising Gu Yin…

He was a veteran himself, having won several awards in racing. Because of this, he could fully appreciate the gold content of Gu Yin’s drifting into that parking space…

What was he thinking right now?

He was thinking that it was no shame for him to be shaken off by Gu Yin.

Why didn’t he stop to check when he saw the yellow license plate of the driving instructor’s car and felt suspicious?

It was because, seeing the distance between that car and the cars in front and behind, he thought the possibility of drifting into that parking space was too small!

Let alone Gu Yin, even top international racers wouldn’t dare to say they could do it in one go.

Before seeing the video, he would rather believe the “haunted” claim from the guy in the passenger seat than believe that Gu Yin actually drifted into that parking space!

Simply put: He shook them off with his skills!

No complaints!

“This…”

The fat guy was a bit flustered.

No, a driving school instructor from this small place was actually a real expert?!

Is this for real?!

…

Because of taking the filming team for a ride, they lost some time. When Gu Yin sent Xia Xiangsi home, it was already past seven o’clock.

“Bye.”

“See you tomorrow.”

After saying goodbye, Gu Yin drove away.

Speaking of which, since meeting Xia Xiangsi, Gu Yin’s life had become much better and easier…

Before, he would drive ride-hailing cars in the city after work. Now, he just charged Xia Xiangsi a fee, eliminating the need for ride-hailing and going straight home.

In this cold weather, who wouldn’t want to buy some food and drinks and go home to rest earlier?

“What’s this guy’s background?” Walking back to the apartment building, Mengmeng carried her bag, recalling the scenes, and felt a little dubious.

Since knowing Gu Yin, she had only thought that he had a bad temper, spoke harshly, and had a sharp tongue. But he was conscientious in teaching driving, except for his occasional irrational actions on the road, there was nothing special about him…

However, what happened tonight clearly made Mengmeng realize that she had underestimated him.

When Gu Yin started drifting around the bend tonight, she thought, what is this guy doing, a driving school instructor playing drift racing, isn’t he afraid of traffic accidents?!

Later, she slowly discovered that this guy actually had some skill…

Later still, his drift into the parking spot and immediate reverse out made Mengmeng suddenly feel that she had underestimated Gu Yin all along.

Seeing that Xia Xiangsi seemed to know about this, Mengmeng simply asked.

“Not quite sure.” Wearing a face-shaping mask, the female star shook her head slightly and tightened her down jacket.

She wasn’t being evasive. Mainly, after chatting with Gu Yin last time, she had also inquired with some of her friends in the racing field, but they hadn’t heard of a “Gu Yin.”

It felt like he was the kind of person who was very low-level and unknown, but had excellent skills and talent, just hadn’t met a Bole (a wise person who recognizes and promotes talent), a hidden gem…

“I’ve asked him, he didn’t say.” Entering the elevator, Xia Xiangsi shook her head slightly and said, “People probably all have privacy they don’t want to mention.”

Just like she wasn’t willing to answer Gu Yin at the time…

However, she later answered Gu Yin with her actions, but Gu Yin didn’t take the initiative to answer her. If Mengmeng hadn’t been there today, she might have asked.

“Mmm…”

Mengmeng nodded, thought for a moment, and said bluntly:

“Racing is inherently the most expensive thing. All the famous racers are basically rich before they become famous, those without a strong financial background can’t afford it.”

That makes sense…

Cars, ordinary civilian cars, even the cheapest ones cost tens of thousands.

Racing cars are even more expensive. Whether it’s buying or modifying them, it costs hundreds of thousands, or even millions, constantly burning money…

There are large-scale racing teams that provide cars for drivers, but without status or background, let alone competing, it’s hard to even touch a car. Being able to test cars for those who can compete might be the peak.

Although they didn’t know Gu Yin completely, they knew he was a local, a native of this place, and his family wasn’t well-off, otherwise he wouldn’t be so stingy, like someone who’s obsessed with money…

For him, even if he raced and had the skills, it’s normal not to be noticed.

Class and background are unavoidable in all walks of life. In any place, only substantial capital gives people the confidence to speak.

…

Back to his apartment complex, around eight o’clock, there was definitely no dinner at home. Gu Yin circled the pedestrian street again, looking for something to eat.

He didn’t eat fried pancakes today, spending over ten yuan on a bowl of rice noodle soup…

Speaking of which, Gu Yin only recently learned that the rice noodle soup in their city was quite famous, even branching into different schools of thought.

The rice noodle shop was quiet at night. While waiting, Gu Yin removed the camera from his chest…

Today’s live stream was really long, the duration should be fine.

Speaking of which, he had been participating in the recording of “Reconciling with Life” for about twenty days, and he didn’t know when they would pay.

When he joined the show, the agreement was 200 yuan a day, plus car allowance. The car allowance was calculated based on mileage and fuel costs using the platform’s formula. It shouldn’t be a loss.

“Will it exceed ten thousand?” Gu Yin thought happily.

If it exceeded ten thousand, plus his regular salary, he might get nearly twenty thousand next month!

“My luck is really amazing recently!” Gu Yin thought happily.

He earned money from Xia Xiangsi, and extorted a sum from the Audi driver. His older male cousin also sent him a 700 yuan red envelope in the afternoon, which seemed to be the remaining part of the repair fee from the earlier additional work on the Kartelai.

His older male cousin was really honest and kind. He probably didn’t keep much for himself. Sometimes Gu Yin wondered how his aunt, with her personality, could give birth to such a kind cousin?

Maybe it’s complementary, like lazy parents often have diligent children…

A few days ago, Gu Yin saw a video of a child getting up early for school in winter, and his parents couldn’t get up, so they gave the child some money to go to school by himself, buy some food on the way, and if there’s enough time, bring them breakfast.

See?

Did the child want to be diligent?

No!

It’s because the parents were not diligent, and would starve to death…

Similarly, his aunt was so troublesome outside, if his cousin wasn’t a little honest, the whole family would be really annoying.

“Hehehe…”

Thinking this, the rice noodle soup was ready. Gu Yin took it home. The northern winter night at eight o’clock was freezing. Gu Yin didn’t even want to put his hands out, staying outside for a while was torture.

When he got home, he smelled a medicinal scent, and he saw a busy figure in the kitchen. He thought it was his mother making medicine…

“Didn’t I say I’d do it?” Gu Yin subconsciously muttered while taking off his coat.

Entering the living room, his mother was watching TV on the sofa…

Then who was in the kitchen?

“Gu Yue?”

Going in, he saw his slender and well-developed younger sister standing in front of a clay pot, staring.

“How… did you change your personality?” Gu Yin laughed. Why was his sister so well-behaved today?

Speaking of which, Gu Yin hadn’t seen Gu Yue come back so early in a long time…

She usually came back late after evening self-study, what was the situation today?

“? What do you mean?” Gu Yue rolled her eyes: “I’ve always been a very sensible person!”

“Doesn’t your conscience hurt when you say that?” Gu Yin squatted down, took a large bowl from the cupboard and put the rice noodle soup in it.

“Is it the rice noodle soup from that shop opposite the pharmacy?” His sister swallowed.

“…Your brother hasn’t eaten yet!” Gu Yin rolled his eyes: “How dare you snatch it?”

“Oh, I have a small appetite, I’ll only eat a little…”

“Get lost!”

The siblings started making a ruckus in the kitchen…

“Oh, alright, Gu Yue, if you want to eat, make your brother some noodles, your brother hasn’t eaten yet…” Their mother said this without showing any clear bias.

She treated them both equally!

“You are really my dear mother!”

Gu Yin rolled his eyes, but eventually shared some rice noodle soup with Gu Yue…

He slurped the soup, the night at home was quite warm.

While eating, Gu Yin took out his phone and transferred 5000 yuan to his mother. It was the money he earned from Xia Xiangsi.

When she asked where it came from, he said he recruited several more students last month, who all passed the test, so he received the performance bonus.

“So much?” His mother’s eyes lit up, but she didn’t directly accept it, just saying: “Oh, maybe don’t take it, we have money at home, you need to spend money when you’re out, don’t give it all to me…”

She hesitated, clearly wanting to say something but not knowing how.

For example, is her son old enough to have a girlfriend?

Last time she saw her son lying on the sofa chatting happily with someone, she thought her son might have finally found a girlfriend…

If he really had a girlfriend, wouldn’t he spend more money?

If he gave all his money to the family, what would he spend on?

“It’s okay, just take it, I still have some, I can earn more when I spend it all.” Gu Yin said indifferently.

Just then, his phone “dinged.”

Gu Yin picked it up and saw that it was a message from Sister Liu…

The one who was the fifth-time failure of Driver’s License Test Level 2 driving a Santana.

Of course, this was the current nickname. If she failed again, she’d be the sixth-time failure.

That’s right, Sister Liu also scheduled an exam…

To be honest, Gu Yin didn’t want her to practice anymore. She basically knew everything, practicing was a waste. She just got nervous in the exam, it was a psychological problem that Gu Yin couldn’t cure.

Initially, Gu Yin felt annoyed when he saw Sister Liu’s message, but when he read it, he instantly changed his expression, smiling brightly!

Sister Liu: “Coach, I want to introduce you to a student. (Smiling)”

A referral!

Could Gu Yin not change his expression?

“Mom, see, I told you, there are plenty of opportunities to make money.” Gu Yin laughed and showed his phone to his mother.

“…Alright, then I’ll take it.” His mother nodded with relief, saying: “Your birthday is next month, I’ll buy some mutton and make you mutton dumplings.”

Mutton dumplings in winter, they were delicious!

“Mmm!” At the mention of mutton dumplings, Gu Yin’s eyes lit up.

He didn’t like dumplings when he was young, even when he did eat them, he wouldn’t eat them with vinegar or garlic. But in the past two years, he didn’t know if his bloodline had awakened, but he increasingly found dumplings delicious, and without vinegar or garlic, it just didn’t taste right.

In short, good things were happening one after another…

The whole family was very happy.

But then, after Gu Yin finished chatting with Sister Liu about her friend’s child learning to drive, he asked another question…

Sister Liu asked: “Coach, how are you arranging those students? They haven’t learned anything, and they’re just going to take the exam?”

…
