The practice road Xia Xiashan chose for Maomao was indeed very safe.
On the way here, for at least two kilometers, we hardly saw any vehicles.
Driving to the end, ahead was a towering pile of gravel and sand.
This kind of enclosed dead-end road was very suitable for a novice like Maomao.
After dropping Lin Yu and Maomao off, Xia Yiwei specifically ran to Lin Yu's side.
Speaking in a pleading tone:
"Little Master, if Maomao isn't learning well somewhere, please be extra patient, okay?"
"You know, her practical life skills are almost zero."
"But Maomao is very smart. I believe you can definitely teach her. Thank you!"
Lin Yu looked at Xia Yiwei and said:
"Vivi, why are even you being so polite?"
"Is there anything I've promised that I haven't done?"
After all these days of everyone being together, Lin Yu had helped out plenty.
Whenever anyone had trouble, he treated them all equally.
After all.
They're all good friends!
Helping one or another, there's simply no need for thanks.
What's going on today?
It's one thing for the museum director sister to be polite; maybe it's her consistent style.
But even the nurse sister is being this polite?
Do they really think Lin Yu would give up halfway and leave Maomao to her own devices?
Xia Yiwei said with a meaningful tone:
"Little Master, about this matter..."
"Forget it, you'll know in a moment, hehehe!"
Lin Yu looked suspiciously at Maomao, a bad premonition arising in his heart.
Could little Maomao be more terrifying than antique sister Shen Buyao?
Lin Yu dared to ride in Shen Buyao's car.
And even returned safely after getting out.
What's there to fear from a little Maomao?
Generally for beginners, at most they're just unfamiliar with driving.
Everyone has a different sensitivity to driving; with a little training, everyone should be able to improve.
Lin Yu actually felt that the Xia sisters seemed to be making a mountain out of a molehill.
After bidding farewell to the others, Lin Yu came up to Maomao.
The wilderness was empty, the car interior spacious.
Having a little drink, with a young girl by his side.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Gotta say.
The atmosphere really wasn't bad!
"Maomao, don't worry. When I got my driver's license, I learned very thoroughly."
"Passed everything on the first try, and I have some driving experience too."
"You just need to relax, keep a calm mindset while driving, and everything will be fine."
Lin Yu cheered Maomao on, starting with putting her mind at ease.
What novices fear most is nervousness. Once nervousness sets in, they start turning the steering wheel randomly.
If their feet go weak, they might not step on the brake or accelerator accurately.
The car they were driving today wasn't a learner's car.
Although there were no obstructing vehicles on the road to affect smooth driving.
But if control is lost, hitting the rock pile or the curb is still possible!
Seeing how nervous Xia Xiashan and Xia Yiwei were, Maomao might have really made mistakes before.
Hearing this, Maomao smiled and replied:
"Mmm, I was a bit nervous when Shan said she would teach me."
"Now that it's Yu, I feel very relaxed."
Lin Yu felt a wave of joy inside.
This little Maomao, she sure knows how to talk!
With just a few words, she highlighted Lin Yu's importance.
Lin Yu pointed to the Mercedes-Benz behind him, saying:
"That's good, let's get in the car then!"
Maomao nodded and walked lightly towards the passenger seat.
Lin Yu also walked towards the driver's seat.
After two steps.
Lin Yu: "Wait!!"
Maomao had just pulled open the passenger door.
She immediately stopped in place, looking at Lin Yu puzzled:
"What's wrong, Yu?"
"Didn't you say to get in the car?"
Maomao, having just opened the door, didn't know what new idea Lin Yu had.
Lin Yu pointed to his own side and asked:
"What are you going over there for? Aren't you the one practicing driving?"
"That's the passenger seat!"
Maomao was stunned for a moment, then realizing, she quickly said:
"Oh right, I'm so used to being a passenger, I almost forgot."
Saying this.
Maomao hurriedly ran over and swapped positions with Lin Yu.
This little episode before starting made Lin Yu vaguely sense trouble.
If she couldn't even tell the driver's seat from the passenger seat right off the bat, would the driving practice go smoothly later?
...
Meanwhile.
Inside Xia Xiashan's Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
Xia Xiashan, driving Xia Yiwei home, kept glancing in the rearview mirror.
They hadn't left the scene very far.
Xia Xiashan was already starting to worry.
Seeing her sister's expression, Xia Yiwei couldn't help but tease:
"If you chose to ask my Little Master for help, you should at least have a little trust, right?"
"Relax, my Little Master can handle any complicated situation!"
It was precisely because Xia Xiashan wasn't at ease that she kept looking around anxiously.
She couldn't help saying:
"It should be fine, right..."
"Driving on this road, even if something happens, at most it's just repairing the car."
"At least personal safety shouldn't be a major issue."
Xia Yiwei continued her sarcasm:
"Old sis, shut your jinxing mouth, quick, spit it out, ptooey ptooey ptooey."
Xia Xiashan really wanted to retort, but after thinking about it...
She said softly:
"Ptooey ptooey ptooey."
Xia Yiwei: "???"
At times like these, wouldn't her sister usually retort?
Just how worried was she to actually go along with what she said?
...
Inside the car where Maomao and Lin Yu were.
Maomao adjusted the seat and fastened her seatbelt.
Lin Yu watched for over a minute from the side: "..."
Finally.
Maomao, holding the key she had been fiddling with for a while, asked Lin Yu:
"Yu, is this key broken?"
"Why is there no part to insert into the keyhole?"
"It's a bit like a remote control for a toy car? Could it be that Shan brought the wrong one when we left?"
Lin Yu helplessly held his forehead, really not knowing how to comment.
After holding back for a long time, he managed to say:
"Maomao, did you go along when the car was bought?"
Maomao nodded quickly, then thought about it and shook her head.
Lin Yu didn't take it seriously, because it simply wasn't important!
"This car of yours, its key doesn't need to be inserted!"
"As long as you have it on you, press the start button, and it can enter the starting state."
Maomao's eyes instantly lit up, mumbling:
"So that's what Shan meant before."
Lin Yu: "..."
Aren't you the memory champion?
Can remember every tiny detail?
How come when it comes to driving, it's like your brain isn't working?
Fortunately.
She didn't need Lin Yu to point out the start button; she could find it herself.
Immediately after.
The sound of the engine starting rang out.
The vehicle started up very smoothly.
While the car was still parked, Lin Yu didn't rush Maomao to drive immediately, first explaining about the gears.
"Maomao, see the English letters on the screen?"
"P stands for Park, the parking brake state. After you park the car, you can switch to this gear."
"Besides this gear, there are also..."
Maomao: "Yu! Wait a moment!"
Before Lin Yu could finish, Maomao first looked over with a shocked expression.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
