    Chapter 97: Parallel parking led to fatigue driving…

    Some “dog lovers” popped up again, standing on a moral high ground, and began to criticize Gu Yin, escalating the situation.

    These people are just complete idiots. Pan Hong put the aggressive dog that injured someone into a cage, and they kept saying the cage was too small and the dog was uncomfortable. Imagine if you were a dog and were locked in a cage, wouldn’t you be uncomfortable…?

    You’re the dog! Your whole family are dogs!

    Then they opened the cage and released the dog, and the dog directly bit another dog to death.

    Oh, so the other dog wasn’t innocent?

    It’s the same now. Gu Yin just casually said a few words, and this can be escalated?

    Luckily Gu Yin couldn’t see the comments, otherwise he would have been mad to death…

    Xia Xiangsi was amused by Gu Yin’s words and let out a “pfft” of laughter, but she still couldn’t help but say, “No one’s dog can just be hit, right?”

    Then the funny part came…

    Gu Yin, impatiently, retorted: “Just go! The dogs at the driving school are better at avoiding cars than you are!”

    “What did you say?!”

    Xia Xiangsi’s face instantly flushed red at these words!

    She felt Gu Yin was insulting her!

    But the next scene was even funnier…

    At that time, Xia Xiangsi was already lifting the clutch and moving forward. The car was idling and moving forward slowly, already approaching the chubby Corgi.

    After Gu Yin finished speaking, within a few seconds, the dog, as if it had seen the car coming, got up nimbly and dodged.

    Seeing this scene…

    Xia Xiangsi was stunned!

    [Ah haha…]

    The netizens instantly went crazy laughing.

    It really turned out as Gu Yin said, the dogs at the driving school are better at avoiding cars than Xia Xiangsi!

    “Hmm?” Gu Yin crossed his arms and glanced at Xia Xiangsi.

    The actress blushed and lowered her head, feeling a little ashamed, but also a little unconvinced…

    “Okay, let’s do parallel parking.”

    Gu Yin said, walking to the marked parallel parking lines. Pointing to the dashed lines, he said to Xia Xiangsi, “Keep a 30cm distance between the car body and this dashed line, not too far, not too close…”

    “Oh, oh.” Xia Xiangsi awkwardly operated the car.

    Finally learning something new. It was evident that the actress was a little nervous, but luckily she had already familiarized herself with the car’s controls, and for a time, nothing funny happened.

    “Look in the mirror!” Gu Yin came to the right side of the car, pointing to the right rearview mirror, saying, “When the corner of the parking space appears in the middle of the rearview mirror, stop, shift into reverse.”

    “Mm-hmm.” Xia Xiangsi nodded, following Gu Yin’s instructions, braking, shifting into reverse, releasing the clutch, and the car slowly began to reverse…

    At that moment, Xia Xiangsi was very nervous, her heart was racing, but Gu Yin didn’t seem to notice.

    Gu Yin wasn’t in the car, and the viewers watching the show didn’t notice either.

    “When the corner of the parking space disappears from the rearview mirror, turn the steering wheel all the way to the right!” Gu Yin stood outside the car, giving instructions through the window to Xia Xiangsi.

    One thing that neither Gu Yin nor the audience in the live stream noticed at the time was that Xia Xiangsi’s nervous eyes were fixed on the rearview mirror outside the window. After Gu Yin gave the instruction, her brain seemed to not react for a moment, and when she did react, it seemed a little late…

    Then!

    She started to frantically hit the steering wheel!

    “Pap pap pap…”

    Her delicate hands pounded on the steering wheel of the instructor’s car. The originally rhythmic steering wheel movements seemed to be completely forgotten by Xia Xiangsi. She began to wildly hit the steering wheel. Not only was the action extremely chaotic, but she also accidentally…

    Turned on the windshield wipers!

    “Swoosh swoosh…”

    The wipers started to move back and forth across the instructor’s car window, the steering wheel was turning quickly, but because she’d reversed the direction, she missed the timing on this first attempt.

    [Pfft…]

    [Ah hahahahaha…]

    The audience in the live stream was laughing hysterically, the comment section scrolling wildly:

    [No way, goddess, are you that nervous?]

    [What’s with this franticness, ah hahaha…]

    [Xia Xiangsi: Watch out, I’ll jump up and kick your knees!]

    [Was that the “Adorable Mengmeng Palm” just now hahaha…]

    The audience knew Xia Xiangsi was good at creating funny moments, but they didn’t know she was this good.

    The scene of her wildly hitting the steering wheel was instantly named the “Adorable Mengmeng Palm,” it’s just that funny.

    “Stop! Stop, stop!”

    Gu Yin was stunned…

    He shouted, “Step on the brake!”

    Xia Xiangsi finally realized she had made a mistake, slammed on the brake to stop the vehicle, blushed, lowered her head, looking like she had done something wrong.

    “What is wrong with you?” Gu Yin was amused and exasperated. He opened the passenger door, leaned in, and asked, “Hey, are you tired?”

    Xia Xiangsi’s two little hands had been “pap pap pap”-ing the steering wheel. Gu Yin found it tiring just watching.

    “A… a little.”

    Xia Xiangsi clasped her hands together, placing them on her tightly-toned legs, her head bowed in shame.

    She naturally heard the sarcasm in Gu Yin’s words and knew that she had again done something embarrassing and mortifying…

    But just now, she had been so nervous!

    She thought Gu Yin’s previous words were sarcastic enough, and she didn’t retort, because she had made a mistake…

    But who knew, Gu Yin followed up with another sentence: “I think the car is more tired than you are.”

    As soon as these words came out…

    Xia Xiangsi and the viewers watching the show were stunned for a moment.

    Everyone’s eyes involuntarily glanced at the steering wheel, which had just been subjected to Xia Xiangsi’s frenzied “Adorable Mengmeng Palm,” and the windshield wipers that were still going…

    The next moment.

    [Pfft…]

    [Ah ha ha ha ha…]

    Everyone couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

    Hilarious!

    Too funny!

    Yes, the car really was, as Gu Yin said, more tired than Xia Xiangsi!

    Just look at those wipers, they’re still moving back and forth, they haven’t stopped…

    This car following Xia Xiangsi… really isn’t easy!

    Thinking that was funny enough…

    Xia Xiangsi was already blushing and couldn’t lift her head, wishing she could immediately escape this planet by rocket…

    Who knew, Gu Yin followed up with another sentence:

    “You haven’t even been at this parallel parking for two minutes, and you’re going to cause fatigue driving…”

    As soon as these words came out…

    Many people were taken aback.

    They didn’t immediately understand what Gu Yin meant.

    But soon, everyone recalled the scene of Xia Xiangsi’s “Adorable Mengmeng Palm” frantically hitting and turning the steering wheel, combined with Gu Yin’s previous sentence “fatigue driving”…

    [Pfft…]

    [Ge ge ge ge ge…]

    The live stream instantly turned into a “咏鹅 (Yong E – a classic Chinese poem often used to describe something humorous)” scene!

    This audience was already laughing uncontrollably!

    You know…

    Xia Xiangsi’s way of handling the steering wheel really could easily lead to fatigue driving!

    Her hand muscles would definitely get an incredibly exaggerated workout!

    [Ah hahaha…]

    [Coach Gu, you’re really talented!]

    [When it comes to insulting people, it has to be these driving school instructors hahaha…]

    “You’ve gone far enough!”

    Xia Xiangsi was utterly ashamed, her delicate feet tucked inside her snow boots were practically trying to dig a three-bedroom apartment out of the floor!

    So embarrassing!

    She had been so nervous just now…

    “Well, it’s my first time practicing parallel parking, I’m inexperienced, and I didn’t do well, isn’t that normal?” Xia Xiangsi didn’t dare to raise her head, but she was still quite stubborn, saying, “Why are you being so sarcastic?”

    There’s nothing wrong with this…

    Let alone her, even if other people made mistakes on their first try at parallel parking, it’s normal.

    Gu Yinzhen shouldn’t be so sarcastic…

    In the live stream of “Reconciling with Life,” there were also some of Xia Xiangsi’s fans. Usually they didn’t speak up easily, occasionally just stirring things up…

    Here?

    At this moment, they came out and said:

    [Exactly, this Coach Gu is too harsh…]

    [He talks to people like that, someone who could drive well would not be able to anymore…]

    [Finally someone said it, I’ve always thought this guy was too mean and too harsh on students.]

    A bunch of little trolls, finally revealed their true colors.

    And at this moment…

    “Heh~”

    Gu Yin, who was originally looking up in the car, unexpectedly smiled without reason.

    Then, he pulled his head out, stepped back two steps, pointed to the ground, and said to Xia Xiangsi,

    “Come, show me where the car is…”

    Upon hearing this…

    Xia Xiangsi and those trolls who had shown their true colors were all taken aback.

    With a “click,” Xia Xiangsi unfastened her seatbelt and got out of the car shakily.

    Seeing the scene outside, Xia Xiangsi was puzzled, and asked Gu Yin, “What’s wrong?”

    The vehicle was parked outside the parallel parking space. Because Gu Yin had called for an emergency stop, Xia Xiangsi hadn’t completely reversed the car in, only a small part of the car was touching the dashed line…

    However, the part of the car touching the dashed line…

    Was the front of the car.

    “Don’t you think something’s wrong?” Gu Yin’s mouth twitched wildly. He tightened his down jacket and pointed to the front of the car.

    “This… what’s wrong?” Xia Xiangsi still hadn’t realized…

    And the viewers watching next door…

    Were laughing hysterically!

    [Pfft…]

    [Ah ha ha ha ha ha…]

    [She turned the steering wheel the wrong way!]

    [Hahaha… I knew why Coach Gu was so harsh on Xia Xiangsi, it was because of this!]

    [Hilarious, Coach Gu’s previous reprimand was already light, your goddess got excited, and turned the steering wheel the wrong way hahahaha…]

    For parallel parking with the parking space on the right, when reversing, you must turn the steering wheel to the right…

    Gu Yin’s instructions were also to turn to the right.

    If it was to the right, even if it didn’t go all the way in, the rear of the car would be against the line, and it would never be the front of the car against the line.

    The front of the car against the line, there’s only one possibility, that is, the steering wheel was turned the wrong way, turned left, and the front of the car was reversed against the direction of the line.

    “This… this…”

    Xia Xiangsi was no longer so ashamed. The originally refined face, like that of an elf, had recovered its white and tender color.

    Now…

    After realizing what she had done.

    That delicate face began to turn red again at a visible speed!

    Her face flushed red instantly!

    Embarrassing…

    Too embarrassing!

    Embarrassing again and again and again!!!

    “Slap!”

    Her delicate hand slowly rose, Xia Xiangsi “slap” hit her delicate, made-up face, not even caring about ruining her makeup. Now she only had one thought in her mind, that she…

    Had no face to see anyone!

    “Pfft…”

    Seeing her like this, Gu Yin laughed and couldn’t help but say,

    “Oh my god, tell me, how many blunders have you made in one parallel parking attempt?”

    He started counting on his fingers how clumsy Xia Xiangsi had been:

    “You didn’t know how to turn the steering wheel, and then you turned it the wrong way, it’s just practicing parking in a different place, why are you so nervous?”

    “You’re like this in a different place, what if you go to the Driver’s License Test Level 2 exam? You’ll just be stupid as soon as you enter the examination room?”

    “You even reversed the direction during the reversing into a parking space, it’ll be really lively then!”

    “What’s wrong with you, why can’t you do anything right?!”

    As soon as he said this…

    [Ah ha ha ha ha…]

    The audience laughed along.

    Too funny!

    This actress, incredible!

    Those Xia Xiangsi fans in the live stream who kept saying Gu Yin had a bad attitude, none of them dared to show up now.

    They thought, if they were Gu Yin, faced with this situation, they would have to scold her, right?

    “Don’t… don’t talk about me…”

    Xia Xiangsi covered her face with one hand, looking like she had no face to see anyone, while the other hand secretly tugged at Gu Yin’s clothes. When Gu Yin looked over, she cautiously winked at him.

    “I don’t want to talk about you either…” Gu Yin was amused, “Tell me, who wouldn’t scold you after seeing how you practiced?”

    “…Stop it, you’re like a Tang Monk reciting the Tightening Hoop Mantra!” Xia Xiangsi was a little annoyed.

    “Okay, okay…”

    Gu Yin shook his head helplessly, knowing that nagging wasn’t good, so he pulled Xia Xiangsi to the driver’s seat of the instructor’s car.

    “Come on, get in the car first, let me see if you can tell left from right.” Gu Yin said.

    “Oh…”

    Xia Xiangsi reluctantly walked back. As she passed Gu Yin, she tossed her hair, her shiny black short hair swinging through the air, leaving a fragrant trail.

    She’s pretty, and she smells good. Usually men Gu Yin’s age would find her attractive, but the things she did had already made Gu Yin “desensitized” to her.

    Gu Yin now just wanted to see if she could…

    Sitting in the driver’s seat, Xia Xiangsi wanted to fasten her seatbelt to prevent Gu Yin from finding fault with her.

    But Gu Yin directly pushed her hand away, saying, “You don’t need to wear a seatbelt for this test.”

    “Oh…”

    Xia Xiangsi reluctantly pouted, sitting upright in the driver’s seat.

    “…Relax, don’t be nervous.” Gu Yin was afraid she would be nervous and make more mistakes, so he specifically said this.

    But the more he said it, the more nervous Xia Xiangsi became…

    Gu Yin didn’t notice this, and only after Xia Xiangsi was ready, he directly asked Xia Xiangsi, “Okay, which is left?”

    Xia Xiangsi paused, her brain reacted quickly, and she cautiously raised her left hand.

    Gu Yin nodded and continued to ask, “Which is right?”

    Xia Xiangsi lowered her left hand, and carefully raised her right hand.

    [Isn’t this no problem?]

    The viewers watching the show clearly hadn’t realized the seriousness of the situation yet, and thought Xia Xiangsi wasn’t left-right confused, and Gu Yin’s question was too elementary.

    But who knew…

    Gu Yin’s face showed no surprise, he didn’t praise Xia Xiangsi or scold her, he simply said,

    “Okay, turn the steering wheel to the right once…”

    As soon as the words fell.

    Xia Xiangsi was stunned, a trace of panic flashed across her pretty face, her hands crossed, and she almost became flustered again, and then in front of Gu Yin and the tens of thousands of viewers online at the same time…

    This actress, who had already lost face, actually, smoothly turned the steering wheel to the left.

    And…

    Her posture was no longer the standard one, but she gave the steering wheel another set of “Adorable Mengmeng Palm”!

    “Damn…”

    Gu Yin couldn’t hold it back anymore!

    “…Please, sister…” Gu Yin clasped his hands together, making a gesture of “worshipping the Bodhisattva Guanyin,” and frankly said, “Go drop out! I won’t earn a cent from you, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to earn this commission in my life!”

    Unexpectedly!

    Gu Yin really didn’t expect it!

    He knew Xia Xiangsi was clumsy, but he didn’t know she was this clumsy, she couldn’t even tell left from right!

    [Pfft…]

    [Ah ha ha ge ge ge…]

    The viewers watching next door were also laughing hysterically!

    The barrage wildly scrolled:

    [I’m laughing so hard my head fell off and I’m going to recycle it hahahahaha…]

    [Too funny, no, oh my god, my stomach hurts.]

    [Another talented player is born hahaha…]

    [I still feel sorry for Xia Xiangsi, I now feel sorry for Coach Gu!]

    [Coach Gu: This commission is really hard to earn!]

    [Hahahaha…]

    “Don’t be like that, you…” Xia Xiangsi didn’t dare to look up in shame, and still said, “I didn’t mean to, I just… I was too flustered, I didn’t mean to confuse left and right!”

    She was very anxious, as if afraid Gu Yin would misunderstand that she really couldn’t tell left from right…

    Not being able to tell left from right isn’t just being clumsy, it’s having a brain problem, it’s being stupid.

    It is worth mentioning that because parallel parking spaces are public, there aren’t many parking spaces available, Gu Yin’s other group of students were also practicing parallel parking here. The group of older ladies in the old Santana had been waiting for a long time.

    A few of the ladies were sticking their heads out of the car to look forward…

    Noticing this, Xia Xiangsi became even more frustrated, her face flushed even redder!

    “It’s also my fault… my problem!” Gu Yin not only didn’t quickly resolve her embarrassment, but continued, “Why didn’t I test whether you can tell left from right at the beginning?”

    “You’ve taught me a lesson…”

    “From now on, when I recruit students, I will ask them if they can tell left from right the first time we meet!”

    Xia Xiangsi was so angry her teeth were chattering, her pure white hand “slap” hit the steering wheel…

    This was a venting action, but she didn’t expect that it was just one action, and Gu Yin caught it and reprimanded her:

    “The steering wheel didn’t do anything, it’s innocent to receive such a beating from you!”

    At this moment, Gu Yin gave people the feeling that even a passing dog would be reprimanded by him!

    Don’t laugh people to death…

    Feel sorry for Xia Xiangsi?

    Gu Yin wanted to say, who would feel sorry for me!
