Locking away my heart and love! Going back to 2000 to be a top student again.

Previously, when Zhou Mochen forbade her to drink iced soda, he said, "If you don't want to continue taking medicine, then listen to me."

Xu Su felt a little guilty. She hadn't experienced menstrual cramps in a long time and had long since stopped restricting her diet when her period wasn't starting. However, since Shen Chen had guessed it, she still felt somewhat guilty...

She abruptly started the car and abruptly changed the subject: "Let's not talk about this anymore, Shen Chen. Teach me how to operate it. Don't forget the important thing, I'm here to learn to drive!"

Her guilty conscience was so obvious that Shen Chen could see it, but since she had already drunk it, what could he do?

Shen Chen took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to continue nagging her, and began to teach seriously.

"Don't press the accelerator too hard, be gentle, drive the car out first, the road outside is wider." Shen Chen put one hand on the steering wheel, helping Xu Su slowly adjust the direction, and successfully drove the car out of the courtyard gate.

Each villa in this area occupies a large area, and there are only a few households at a glance. Moreover, wealthy people own many properties and may not necessarily live here. It is rare to see a car on weekdays, and the roads are flat and wide, making it a great place for beginners to practice driving.

Xu Su stepped on the gas pedal and drove the car forward, her hands and feet stiff and extremely nervous.

Shen Chen asked, "Do you know anything about traffic regulations?"

"Yes, I took the written test (Theory Test 1 and Theory Test 4) on the computer myself." Xu Su said nervously, her eyes fixed straight ahead. "I took it many times and passed it every time."

"Not bad." Shen Chen praised, "Just drive around this road a few times, keep going forward, relax, don't exceed 30 miles per hour, you'll be fine, there aren't many cars passing by here."

Xu Su nodded, focusing intently on driving and not paying attention to replying.

"Always keep an eye on the road ahead and the rearview mirror, especially when turning or changing lanes. Always check the rearview mirror and slow down if anything seems wrong."

"By the way, the turn signal is on the left side of the steering wheel. Remember to use it when changing lanes or turning."

Xu Su knew this, and she nodded, "Okay."

It was Shen Chen's first time teaching someone to drive, and he found that once he didn't help hold the steering wheel, the car would veer off course. After a few times, he couldn't help but click his tongue and say, "If you don't move the steering wheel when driving in a straight line, the car won't swerve."

“I didn’t move it,” Xu Su also noticed that the car wasn’t going in a straight line. She tightened her grip on the steering wheel and said sincerely, “I didn’t move it.”

"Hold the steering wheel at the three o'clock and nine o'clock positions. Don't grip it all the way up, or your elbows will get sore. Relax a bit, and when you're turning, gently turn the steering wheel. Just don't use any sudden force."

Shen Chen pointed to the location on the steering wheel, and seeing that her forehead was sweating with nervousness, he comforted her with some concern: "Don't be nervous, I'm sitting next to you, I can't let anything happen to you."

Xu Su had no interest in chatting with him. Following his instructions, she placed her hands on the steering wheel in the correct position, drove for a while, and finally figured out how to drive straight.

After driving around the villa area several times, I finally got the hang of it and wasn't so nervous anymore.

Just as she was lamenting that she hadn't encountered a car in so long, she saw a seven-seater van coming from the front, and Xu Su's breath hitched.

"The road is wide, we're not blocking the way, just drive your own way, don't be nervous."

Shen Chen's calm voice sounded very reassuring at this moment. He taught very patiently: "If the road is very narrow and the two cars cannot pass each other, and you feel that you are not skilled enough to get through, pull over to the side and let the other car pass first."

"Okay, I've got it." Xu Su nodded obediently, and only after successfully passing the other car did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Shen Chen couldn't help but chuckle. This girl had never been so obedient in front of him before.

Looking at the speed of the van in the rearview mirror, Xu Su muttered, "Other people drive so fast. Will the driver think I'm a coward? He drove a perfectly good SUV at a snail's pace."

"So what if you're a coward? It's not shameful to be a coward right now." Shen Chen looked at her profile and said with a smile, "Let's drive at this speed for a few days first, and then speed up once you're not nervous anymore and we're officially on the road."

Xu Su enjoyed the pancake very much.

After practicing driving straight all morning, Xu Su encountered that car. After holding the steering wheel for several hours, he was no longer as nervous as when he first stepped on the gas.

As it approached lunchtime, when they passed by Shen Chen's house, he pointed to his front door and asked, "Would you like to come to my house for dinner? Or shall we eat out?"

"I'm having lunch with Zhou Mochen." Xu Su glanced at the time and realized it was already past eleven. She slammed on the brakes and stopped the car. She reached for her phone in her bag, somewhat puzzled: "He hasn't called me all morning."

“Brother Zhou hasn’t been back to Beijing for years. He’s been so busy, he doesn’t have time to have lunch with you.” Shen Chen tapped the car window lightly with his fingertips, tilted his head to look at Xu Su, and snorted: “Having lunch with me won’t make you feel bad.”

"He told me this morning that we'd have lunch together," Xu Su replied, feeling her phone vibrate as soon as she picked it up.

Speak of the devil, and he appears; Zhou Mochen called.

Xu Su answered the phone, chatted for a few minutes, and then hung up. As she opened the car door to get out, she said to Shen Chen next to her, "Let's practice again this afternoon. I have to go to Zhou Mochen's company."

"It's almost time to get off work, you're bound to encounter traffic on the way, it'll take at least an hour or two round trip, just for the two of you to have a meal together?" Shen Chen grabbed her wrist and pointed to the scorching earth outside the car window: "It's so hot, you really want to go?"

Xu Su nodded without any concern: "It's hot, but I'm not going to walk."

Shen Chen paused, seemingly somewhat helpless, and said, "Okay, I'll take you there."

"No need, Zhou Mochen's driver is already at my door." Xu Su quickly got out of the car, turned around and waved to him: "I'm leaving now, I'll be back after dinner, let's continue practicing driving this afternoon."

Shen Chen didn't speak, and Xu Su didn't wait for his reply either, jogging home.

The passenger sat expressionless, watching the girl's receding figure, his eyes churning with a deep, dark intensity.

If Xu Su saw this, she'd probably get goosebumps.

Soon, a black extended sedan drove past the SUV.

Xu Su, sitting in the back seat of the car, had no idea that Shen Chen was still in the car, nor did she know what kind of twisted emotions he was experiencing.

Shen Chen sat stiffly for a long time, then suddenly reached out and clutched his chest, which was aching, and couldn't help but bend over.

…………

Shen Chen's judgment was correct. The road was not short to begin with, and it just so happened to be during rush hour, so they were stuck in traffic for more than ten minutes.

It took nearly an hour for the car to finally enter the underground parking garage of Zhou's Real Estate.

As soon as Xu Su got out of the car, she saw a familiar face from her past life.

This was the first time that Assistant Li Li had met Xu Su. He didn't dare to stop for a moment after receiving the order and came straight to the garage. He waited for a full half hour before finally meeting this person who was currently the apple of his boss's eye.

Even though I was already mentally prepared, I couldn't help but be momentarily stunned...
