Chapter 332: First Drive
Chapter 332: First Drive
After the two of them agreed, He Lingting wanted to put on his shoes barefoot, but Xiaomai stopped him, "Honey, I think it's better for your feet to be left out to dry. It will make you feel better."
"Then just leave it alone." He Lingting felt that what Xiaomai said made sense.
"Then how do you drive? How about I drive?" Xiaomai said hesitantly.
"You can?" He Lingting had never seen her drive before, so he was a little skeptical.
"I think so! I studied the theory in advance when I wanted to get a driver's license in college, but later I was too busy to sign up."
"Then you come!" He Lingting said as he was about to get out of the car and give his seat to Xiaomai.
"But I don't have a driver's license." Xiaomai said dejectedly. She regretted not having taken a driver's license test in the first place. Now she couldn't help much.
"It's okay. There aren't many cars in this suburb."
Xiaomai looked into the distance and saw that there were indeed few cars on the road. "Okay then! I'll give it a try!"
Xiaomai was really worried that He Lingting's foot injury would get worse if he drove again, but in fact she overlooked the fact that the left foot can be completely free in an automatic transmission car.
She sat in the driver's seat. He Lingting adjusted the seat for her and fastened her seat belt. Then he put his left foot on the shoe and walked to the passenger seat and sat down. "We can set off now."
"Okay, uncle, aren't you worried? Your life is in my hands at this moment." Xiaomai said mischievously.
"Silly girl, my life originally belongs to you, open it!"
Xiaomai blushed, glanced at He Lingting and said nothing more. She sat there looking for a long time and asked, "Honey, where is the clutch? And the handbrake, why can't I see it!"
He Liting's head buzzed when he heard this, and he really regretted it now, but the little girl was in high spirits, so he couldn't just change her. So he patiently explained to Xiaomai the configuration of the car, what each button was used for, and told her how to drive an automatic transmission car.
Xiaomai is indeed a top student. She remembered everything He Lingting said once. She said excitedly, "This automatic transmission car is so easy to drive. I can do it with just one foot. Uncle, sit tight. I'm leaving."
"Ah."
Xiaomai was really great. She pressed the electronic handbrake button and rushed out directly. He Lingting was shaken a little, but didn't say anything.
Xiaomai hurriedly applied the brakes to stabilize the car. Slowly, she got the feel of the car and drove it easily. He Lingting also gradually relaxed from his initial nervous state.
He Lingting looked at the little girl handling things with ease like a seasoned driver, and his heart was filled with pride. This is my baby, she is clever and deft, and can do everything.
Xiaomai looked at the navigation and drove all the way home. She felt that there were more and more cars on the road, so she asked, "Honey, are we going into the city? There are too many cars."
"Well, don't be nervous, just drive your own way."
"Ah! But I don't have a driver's license." Xiaomai said worriedly.
"It's okay, I'll get you one later." He Lingting said indifferently.
"Okay then!" Xiaomai was still quite confident. Just drive. Who's afraid of who? But she thought about the uncle's foot injury. She reached out and searched the words "Central Hospital" on the navigation, and the route was changed immediately.
It was the first time for He Lingting to ride in a car driven by his wife. Instead of being worried, he crossed his legs and closed his eyes to rest.
Xiaomai drove all the way to the Central Hospital, parked the car, and He Lingting opened his eyes and said, "Are we there yet?"
"Well, get out of the car!"
"Why are you here at the hospital? Aren't you going home?"
"Back, let me take a look at your feet first." Xiaomai said.
"No need, the skin is dry now." He Lingting stretched out his left foot and took a look.
"I'm worried. But now that we're here, let's go in!" Xiao Mai said as she helped He Lingting get out of the car and walked towards the hospital. He Lingting walked as if he was limping because his left foot was pulling at his shoe.
As soon as the two entered the hall, they saw Bai Chen coming out of the elevator. Bai Chen saw them from a distance and walked over.
"Why are you two here? Who's having problems?" Bai Chen asked.
"His foot is injured, Bai Chen, can you please check if the bones are broken?" Xiaomai said hurriedly.
Bai Chen also became serious after hearing this. He didn't have much work to do today and wanted to leave early to relax. However, he ran into these two people before he even left the hospital.
Bai Chen took He Lingting to take a bone X-ray. Fortunately, the bones were fine, and they were just flesh injuries. They would be healed after applying some medicine and resting for a few days.
After reading it, Xiaomai finally felt relieved and said, "Husband, since everything is fine, you can drive the car!"
"My foot is injured and I can't drive."
"Tsk, do you think I'm stupid? You can't even use your left foot to drive this car. I don't have a driver's license, so it's not good to drive on the road." Xiaomai glanced at He Lingting and said.
"Okay then!" Since his wife wanted to be a law-abiding citizen, he certainly supported her. However, he didn't know who had instigated his wife to drive to the hospital without a license.
After checking the feet, the two returned home. Xiaomai specifically asked the kitchen to make some pig's trotter soup for dinner to nourish He Lingting.
The moment he saw the soup, He Lingting really didn't want to eat dinner. If he remembered correctly, pig's trotter soup seemed to be used to increase milk production. When Xiaomai was in confinement after childbirth, he did a lot of homework!
He looked at the big bowl of pig's trotter soup but couldn't drink it! He stood up and wanted to leave, but Xiaomai stopped him.
"Honey, you don't want to eat?" Xiaomai asked curiously.
"Eat, eat, but can you not drink this soup?" He Lingting said, pointing at the soup bowl.
"Soup, what's wrong? If you don't like it, just don't drink it! Eat more pig's trotters to nourish your feet." Xiaomai didn't care too much, but when she came closer and took a look, she burst into laughter.
He Lingting looked at the little girl who was laughing so hard that her face turned green with anger. He asked in a cold voice, "Is it appropriate for you to ask the kitchen to make this for me to drink?"
"No, it's not appropriate, husband. I really didn't mean it. I just want you to take advantage of the body. Eat more pig's trotters and you'll get better faster." Xiaomai quickly comforted He Lingting.
"Well, let's eat!" He Lingting could only hum when he saw Xiaomai's flattering look, because she was his baby after all.
After dinner, the two went to the child's room to accompany him. After the parents left, the house suddenly became a lot quieter. Xiaomai was afraid that the child would feel lonely, so she went to accompany them whenever she had time.
He Lingting was forced by his wife to rest at home for two days before he could go to the company. As soon as He Lingting arrived at the company, he asked Asan to get a driver's license for Xiaomai.
Xiaomai's life returned to normal, and everything was as she wished. She returned to the company and began to prepare for new challenges and work towards her dream.
She submitted the preliminary design drawings for the International Jewelry Design Competition while she was in confinement. After more than a month of review, she had passed. She received the notice some time ago, but there were too many things to do at home and she had no time to take care of it.
Now everything is fine. She is out of confinement and someone is taking care of the child. Most importantly, the uncle’s illness has been cured, so she can finally rest assured.
