    Chapter 95 A Rocking Chair?

    “Aren’t you being cocky?”

    “Aren’t you the one insulting people?”

    “Huh? Fatty?”

    “You, I’m talking to you! Look over here! What the hell is that crap you’ve drawn on your neck?”

    “It’s…a broken dragon…”

    “No, weren’t you two pretty arrogant just now?”

    “Weren’t you pretty happy cursing people at the intersection just now?”

    “Weren’t you stubbornly refusing to let me pass when you cut me off?”

    “What’s going on now?”

    “Why isn’t anyone speaking?”

    “Dumbstruck?”

    “Are you born to dislike talking?”

    Tonight…

    Gu Yin truly pushed the phrase “bullying others using someone else’s power” (狗仗人势 – relying on someone else’s power to act arrogantly) to its limit.

    The Mercedes-Benz owner and his friend, intimidated by Su Nuan’s police officer status, didn’t even dare to retort. After getting out of the car and standing by the roadside, they were subjected to an impromptu “military training session” by Gu Yin.

    At that time, not only Su Nuan, but the viewers watching the live stream of “Reconciling with Life” were laughing hysterically…

    【No way, Coach Gu, you’ve gone too far!】

    【Who acts so arrogantly? Tone down that expression! If you continue like this, how can I be your sister’s police dog?】

    【The anchor’s expression is so disgusting, I can’t bear to watch anymore. Can a sports car donation buy more minutes of insults?】

    【Pfft… you guys haven’t let him off either!】

    Su Nuan, being a police officer, had turned her back. She had claimed she needed to wait for the traffic police and look at their car, but in reality, she was secretly laughing…

    Gu Yin was too funny!

    Seriously, he usually presents himself as quite composed. Su Nuan never imagined he had this side to him…

    “Police officer,” perhaps unable to bear the humiliation from Gu Yin, the Mercedes-Benz owner couldn’t help but call out to Su Nuan, saying, “He’s verbally abusing us, aren’t you going to do anything about it?”

    “Yeah!” His companion also chimed in, his voice low and hesitant: “Even if he’s your friend, he can’t humiliate us like this. We have human rights too…”

    Through their conversation, they realized Su Nuan was a police officer, but Gu Yin wasn’t.

    They endured Su Nuan reprimanding them, but what was Gu Yin?

    Before Su Nuan even said anything, he had been cursing for ages. Mountain Winter Region (山冬地区) was already experiencing cold weather, and his mouth was dry from cursing. He went back to his car, got a cup of water, and then continued cursing while drinking…

    What a jerk! So disgusting!

    “Isn’t it right that he said a few things to you?” Su Nuan wasn’t shielding Gu Yin. The two men had acted excessively, so she said frankly, “You two were maliciously cutting him off. If things had gone slightly wrong, it could have easily threatened his personal safety. Shouldn’t he be allowed to scold you two?”

    To put it bluntly, your actions threatened his life, so he’s allowed to scold you!

    It may not be completely legal, but it’s logical and reasonable!

    “Did you hear that?!”

    Gu Yin, emboldened by her words, became even more aggressive!

    “You two idiots almost threatened your father’s life!”

    “What’s wrong with scolding you?”

    “I didn’t kill you two BYD-driving sons of b*&^%$#@…”

    When Su Nuan hadn’t agreed, Gu Yin still had some restraint and paid attention to his language.

    Now that Su Nuan agreed, he dropped the pretense, going all out, using the dirtiest and most offensive language possible.

    The Mercedes-Benz owner and his companion were furious…

    To be honest, they both regretted it. If they hadn’t protested, Gu Yin’s insults might not have been so harsh.

    【Ahahahaha…】

    The viewers were entertained. Although Xia Xiangsi wasn’t in the live stream tonight, the viewership was incredibly high, with over 700,000 concurrent viewers in Gu Yin’s driving school instructor and ride-hailing driver livestream.

    Shortly after.

    The traffic police arrived.

    The officer seemed to know Su Nuan, referred to as “Team Leader Liu” by her. After exchanging greetings, Su Nuan explained the situation…

    “Get in the car and come back to the station with us.” Team Leader Liu, in his traffic police uniform, addressed the Mercedes-Benz owner sternly.

    The large, sturdy Mercedes-Benz owner, resembling a tiger, now looked like a deflated cat, bowing his head without speaking, merely nodding in agreement.

    He actually knew a few friends at the traffic police station, but honestly, even his friends couldn’t save him in this situation.

    If only the person he cut off wasn’t a police officer…

    He knew better than to pull strings. He would accept his punishment obediently.

    His actions…

    were extremely bad.

    Although no major traffic accident occurred, he would still face detention and a fine.

    Witnessing the Mercedes-Benz owner being taken away, the viewers cheered:

    【Serves him right!】

    【Justice prevails!】

    【People like this should be shot!】

    A single bad apple doesn’t spoil the whole bunch. Although they were disgusted by the Mercedes-Benz owner at first, it was quite satisfying to see him get scolded later. Therefore, neither Gu Yin nor Su Nuan took the matter to heart.

    Back in the car, Gu Yin drove while the “Police Beauty” (警花) put away her bag and removed the hair tie from her bun. Her long, black hair cascaded down her shoulders and chest. Su Nuan opened the sun visor on Gu Yin’s car, using the mirror to adjust her appearance.

    “Impressive!” Gu Yin gave a thumbs-up, offering a fair assessment of Su Nuan.

    “You…” The Police Beauty shook her head and smiled helplessly, saying, “Be more polite next time, okay?”

    When she listened to the recording of Gu Yin confronting the Audi driver who blocked his parking space exit, she was speechless at his “opening bombardment.” Hearing him unleash on the Mercedes-Benz owner in person today was satisfying, but it certainly wasn’t very refined.

    “Yes, yes, I’ll remember it!” Gu Yin nodded, “Any other instructions, sis?”

    “Chatty…” Seeing his serious expression, Su Nuan couldn’t help but chuckle: “Let’s go eat, what time is it already!”

    “Should I speed up then?” Gu Yin preemptively warned Su Nuan: “If we drive fast, we won’t encounter things like that again.”

    Perhaps due to their shared experience, Gu Yin’s conversation with Su Nuan became less formal. Su Nuan wasn’t being fussy, so she said directly, “Okay, just be careful and don’t exceed the speed limit.”

    As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it. As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yin floored the accelerator, the electric car’s power maxed out. With a surge of pushback, the car practically shot forward!

    “I didn’t mean that fast… slow down… slow down!” The Police Beauty was startled.

    Gu Yin chose a Cantonese restaurant he had previously visited with friends for dinner. It was a small restaurant tucked away in a narrow alley. They served excellent Chaoshan beef hot pot, with freshly sliced meat, and hand-beaten beef balls (Liu Wan) which Gu Yin particularly enjoyed. In addition, Gu Yin ordered their honey-glazed char siu and stuffed tofu, along with a side of cold-dressed water spinach. That was it.

    “I didn’t know you were such a foodie.” Complimenting Gu Yin, the Police Beauty took off her wool coat, revealing a white long dress underneath.

    The autumn/winter dress had long sleeves, and its cinched waist perfectly accentuated Su Nuan’s graceful figure. Her chest appeared full, like it held treasure, complementing her dignified demeanor, creating a mature, older-sister-like allure that was incredibly attractive.

    At that moment, the viewers watching “Reconciling with Life” went crazy spamming “police dog” in the chat!

    That night…

    countless people wanted to be Su Nuan’s police dog!

    The Police Beauty was simply too cool!

    “Don’t just focus on eating, sis…” Seeing Su Nuan’s eyes light up upon seeing the food, forgetting her purpose, Gu Yin reminded her with a wry smile: “What was it you wanted to talk to me about?”

    He remembered Su Nuan saying she wanted to have dinner with him and had something to discuss.

    Why was she only focusing on the food now?

    Gu Yin was worried about delaying her business…

    “Well…”

    Su Nuan, with a piece of char siu in her mouth, had some sauce smeared on her lips. She hesitated, unsure whether she should speak or not.

    She had originally scheduled dinner with Gu Yin to discuss something serious – mainly to ask him not to talk nonsense during the live stream, to avoid any adverse effects on the local police department…

    But today, Su Nuan felt that Gu Yin wasn’t unreliable.

    At the same time, he wasn’t an extremely biased person…

    He wouldn’t do certain things unless he absolutely couldn’t stand it anymore.

    Like today, the Mercedes-Benz owner was being incredibly unreasonable. Others might have just rammed into them…

    Gu Yin had endured it, so how could he not deserve the word “rational”?

    So, after considering it, Su Nuan smiled brightly and said frankly, “Actually, it’s nothing serious. I just wanted to remind you that if you encounter those difficult people on the road, try to rely on the police and the law. That’s better for you.”

    Upon hearing this…

    Gu Yin scratched his head.

    “Actually, I wasn’t really confident in the police before…” Gu Yin leaned close to Su Nuan’s ear, whispering, “My impression of the police was that they only mediated disputes; few would actively help solve problems.”

    This made Su Nuan giggle, saying, “What kind of impression is that?”

    Fortunately, Gu Yin quickly changed the subject, saying frankly: “But after seeing how you work, sister, I feel that the police are indeed very trustworthy.”

    These weren’t empty words, but Gu Yin’s heartfelt feelings.

    Whether it was the Kartelai female driver blocking the road to pick up her child, the Audi driver blocking the parking space exit a few days ago, or the malicious driver in this incident, Su Nuan showed Gu Yin what it meant to be a responsible police officer.

    She truly handled things fairly and impartially, never shirking her responsibilities.

    Therefore, Gu Yin’s words were sincere…

    Being looked at so sincerely by Gu Yin, Su Nuan somehow felt embarrassed.

    Her cheeks flushed slightly, the Police Beauty avoided his gaze, trying to appear gentle, saying:

    “It’s good that you think so.”

    Perhaps the encounter with the Mercedes-Benz owner had delayed them, but by the time they finished dinner, it was already 9:30 pm.

    “Gu Yue escaped another night…” Gu Yin thought to himself. After sending Su Nuan home, it would probably be past 10:30 pm, so he couldn’t pick up Gu Yue from evening self-study.

    While paying the bill, Gu Yin checked his phone. He hadn’t checked it since picking up Su Nuan. The restaurant only accepted handwritten orders, no scanning involved.

    Now that he had his phone, Gu Yin suddenly noticed many messages from Xia Xiangsi…

    “Where are you?”

    “Who are you with?”

    “Who are you having dinner with?”

    Gu Yin: “???”

    No…

    How did she know he was having dinner with someone?

    He glanced at the camera on his chest…

    “Oh~” Gu Yin realized.

    “You’re monitoring me…” Gu Yin chuckled.

    Come to think of it, things have been a little ambiguous with Xia Xiangsi these past two days…

    What’s up with this female star?

    Could she actually have a crush on me?

    Busy with paying, Gu Yin didn’t reply. They weren’t newly sent, he could reply later tonight.

    After 9:30 pm, traffic thinned out significantly. It was freezing cold, and Gu Yin checked his phone: it was almost below zero…

    He arrived at Su Nuan’s home around 10:30 pm. She lived in a new residential area not far from the police station. The apartments there were expensive, almost nine thousand yuan per square meter.

    In a small county town, that was considered very high.

    “Did you buy this place, sis?” As they approached the entrance, Gu Yin glanced at the building and casually asked.

    “Yes, my parents paid the down payment, and with my housing fund, it’s not actually that expensive to pay it off.” Su Nuan replied nonchalantly.

    “A wealthy woman…” Gu Yin joked.

    “Heh, what wealthy woman…” Su Nuan shook her head: “You don’t seem like the type to be a kept man either, right?”

    “Not necessarily…” Gu Yin was about to say he could be a kept man, but realized it was inappropriate to say that to Su Nuan, so he scratched his head and parked the car at the entrance of the community.

    “Stay safe on the road.”

    “Bye-bye.”

    After bidding farewell to Su Nuan, Gu Yin drove home, a journey of about ten minutes…

    When he arrived, as expected, his mother and sister were asleep, and Gu Yin returned to his lonely home.

    “Whew…”

    Lying in bed, he let out a long sigh, hands behind his head, recalling the details of his meeting with Su Nuan today. To be honest, Gu Yin was a bit moved.

    But he was well aware of the gap between them. Someone like Chen Yunjin wouldn’t look at him, let alone Su Nuan…

    In Mountain Winter Region, those with civil service ranks (编制) and those without were essentially two different classes, an insurmountable divide.

    “Ding-dong.”

    While lost in thought, his phone rang. Gu Yin picked it up and saw another message from Xia Xiangsi.

    She sent Gu Yin an angry cat emoji with the text: “You haven’t replied to me for two hours!”

    Gu Yin found it amusing…

    Female stars are still the cutest.

    He had slept late the previous night, and Gu Yin lacked energy the next morning. After heating medicine for his mother, he wanted to wake up Gu Yue, but when he went to her room, the door was open, and she was gone, seemingly having left long ago…

    Gu Yin scratched his head, not thinking much of it, assuming his sister had left early for school.

    She was in her second year of high school, and after the new year, she would only have one more semester until her third year. Her studies were indeed intense, which was why Gu Yin wasn’t pressing her too hard…

    After his mother had taken her medicine, seeing he had some time left, Gu Yin cooked a bowl of noodles, sharing one with his mother.

    The weather was getting colder, sometimes reaching below zero in the mornings at six or seven o’clock. Many breakfast vendors were just street stalls, not shops. Eating outdoors in this weather would be freezing, not to mention he was tired of the usual street food…

    After breakfast, he drove to the driving school. He didn’t arrive very early. Many students had already come and started practicing.

    His area had several older women Coach Ma had assigned to him already practicing.

    “I admire these students…” Gu Yin thought.

    You have to admire these students. The driving school opens at 7 am, and even in this cold weather, some students arrive at the gate at 7 am, possibly getting up before dawn…

    “It’s not easy.” With such thoughts, Gu Yin thought, “I should teach those older ladies today; they haven’t done anything wrong, and it’s not easy for them.”

    Gu Yin had planned to teach those older women before Xia Xiangsi arrived, but that plan was never implemented…

    Turning his head, Gu Yin saw a familiar figure in the training ground.

    “Squeal…”

    The sound of tires and ground friction was incessant. Gu Yin stopped his car, his eyes widening as he looked towards the edge of the Level 2 (科二) driving test area at the slender girl in a long gray down jacket.

    “No way…” Gu Yin lowered his window and shouted at Xia Xiangsi, “Has the sun risen in the west? Why are you here so early?”

    Today, Xia Xiangsi wore an all-gray, knee-length down jacket, her legs below the knees were covered in black leggings, and she wore brown snow boots. Her short hair and small head were covered by a silver fox hat with ears, keeping her warm, but that did nothing to hide her shivering…

    “Achoo~”

    Seeing Gu Yin, Xia Xiangsi wanted to talk to him first, but perhaps because she had stood outside in sub-zero temperatures for too long, she sneezed first.

    “I’m in a hurry to get my driver’s license, I’m in a hurry to practice driving, is that not okay?” Her rosy lips were slightly pursed, and Xia Xiangsi appeared particularly stubborn.

    “No…” Gu Yin found it amusing: “This isn’t something you can get just because you’re in a hurry. You know your own lack of talent, right?”

    “You… you’re so mean!” Xia Xiangsi gritted her teeth, clenching her fists and preparing to confront Gu Yin.

    Gu Yin smartly floored the gas pedal and drove off.

    When he returned, he had changed into a white Jetta instructor’s car.

    “Ready?”

    He drove to Xia Xiangsi, got out, offered her the driver’s seat, and sat in the passenger seat, holding his thermos cup, lazily reclining, saying only one sentence:

    “You practice, I’ll take a nap. I’m too tired. Don’t call me unless it’s really necessary; I’ll ignore anything else.”

    He thought he could avoid the trouble by ignoring it…

    But Xia Xiangsi turned his car into a rocking chair!
