"I get a little anxious driving by myself!" Tangya continued.
Bai Ningbing also giggled. "That’s right, Luofeng. Mom isn’t really good at driving, so why did you jump in the back?"
Luofeng looked at Bai Ningbing’s triumphant smile and slightly raised his hand. He gave a mock salute, An Lushan style. Then he rolled his eyes at Bai Ningbing before moving to the co-pilot’s seat.
"You’re getting braver." Tangya had actually noticed his gesture. She blushed slightly and was now watching Bai Ningbing tidy her top.
After Luofeng moved to the co-pilot’s seat, he said, "Auntie, don’t worry. Driving is actually very simple. The Porsche Cayenne is very safe; you can just drive casually!"
Upon hearing him say that driving was very simple, both won were speechless.
Tangya took a deep breath. Following Luofeng’s guidance, she adjusted the seat, familiarized herself with the steering wheel, and finally fastened her seatbelt.
After starting the car, Tangya first checked the rearview mirror to ensure it was safe, then activated the turn signal to rge into traffic.
Luofeng could tell Tangya was nervous. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, her gaze fixed straight ahead, and the car moved very slowly.
Thirty-four kiloters an hour, maybe?
"Auntie, you don’t have to be nervous," Luofeng reminded her. "Look, there’s hardly any traffic on the road. Just relax a bit; the Cayenne is very easy to drive!"
With Luofeng’s reminders, Tangya gradually relaxed.
She began to speed up.
The Porsche Cayenne was indeed very easy to maneuver.
After a few kiloters, Tangya had basically mastered the essential driving skills. After all, she had graduated from driving school. Moreover, she was driving a high-performance car with an experienced driver beside her giving advice. She was bound to improve quickly. Luxury cars, after all, are generally more user-friendly.
When Tangya returned to Butterfly Villa, Bai Ningbing advised her in advance, "Mom, you can drive straight in. I’ve just registered this car as a guest vehicle through the smart ho system!"
This ant that as a guest car, it could enter the compound.
"Ah?" Tangya was startled.
Luofeng knew about this feature; many high-end residential areas had it.
"Is it that convenient? There’s no need to register with security?" Tangya asked as the garage entrance opened. She then drove the Porsche Cayenne into the garage and, following the prompts, arrived at Building One.
Eventually, she parked in spot A2.
Tangya’s reverse parking skills were still a bit lacking. Perhaps she only knew how to park by spotting reference points taught in driving school, a thod that wasn’t always applicable in real-life situations. But that was okay. All the parking spots were theirs, so if she didn’t park well, nobody would say anything.
Luofeng advised from the co-pilot’s seat, "Auntie, you should practice driving more. You can drop off at ho on the way; my car is still over there!"
"Sure!" Tangya nodded quickly, suddenly taking a keen interest in driving.
Near Luofeng’s ho, Tangya got out of the car and took the initiative to thank him. "Thank you, Luofeng!"
"Auntie, you’re welco!"
"By the way, we’re planning to buy so groceries at the supermarket. I’ll cook dinner tonight to thank you for being so good to Ningbing!" Tangya said.
"COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, Auntie, I have plans with my classmates tonight," Luofeng said. "Ningbing, Li Jie has arranged dinner tonight. Do you want to join us?"
"Are there any girls?" Bai Ningbing asked.
"No, just Xu Shaoyuan, Zheng Zeyao, Li Jie, and a few of us!" Luofeng said.
"In that case, forget it!"
Luofeng nodded. "Then, Baby, I won’t accompany you to the supermarket. I’m going to et Li Jie and the others!"
"Mm-hmm!" Bai Ningbing nodded.
After they parted, Luofeng drove away in his Lamborghini.
He called Li Jie while in the car.
As soon as the call connected, Luofeng imdiately asked, "Li Jie, are you at ho?"
"You coward! If I’m not at ho, where else would I be?"
"How about we get dinner together?" Luofeng enjoyed this way of talking; it made him feel like he had good friends.
"What about Xu Shaoyuan and Zheng Zeyao?"
"Of course, they’re invited. Are we just going to have dinner, or should we hit an internet cafe and ga for a bit?" Luofeng asked.
"Let’s see how we feel after eating sothing!" Li Jie suggested. "I’ll pass on the Pufferfish Feast; I’m too scared and value my life!"
"Hahaha, you’re like a wild boar that can’t appreciate fine bran!"
"I’m afraid you’re trying to send your buddies to their doom!"
"Then how about a buffet?"
"Sure! That sounds good!"
"You really have no ambition at all!"
In truth, Li Jie didn’t dislike the idea of a Pufferfish Feast. It was just that he thought it was too expensive. Besides, there was the custom of treating soone in return after they treated you. But tens of thousands for a al? How could he ever afford to reciprocate?
「anwhile, on the other side.」
Tangya and Bai Ningbing were shopping in the supermarket.
Bai Ningbing, arm in arm with Tangya, inquired, "Mom, is driving really that simple?"
"Actually, it’s pretty simple. I used to think it was hard too, but now I find it really simple!" Tangya said.
"It seems so difficult to !" Bai Ningbing complained. Learning to drive near the school had been ridiculously challenging.
"Take it slow! Once you’ve learned and he buys you a Cayenne, I’ll return this one to him!" Tangya said.
"He’s really good to you!" Tangya remarked.
Bai Ningbing smiled sweetly. She was truly content with how good Luofeng was to her.
"I will be good to Mom too!" Bai Ningbing said. "By the way, Mom, shall we go for a swim when we get back? Sounds good?"
Tangya nodded. "Mm-hmm!"
"Then I’ll start the cleaning and disinfection systems first, and then set up the heating system. By the ti we get back, the pool should be just about ready for us to dip in," Bai Ningbing said, operating her smartphone to activate features of the swimming pool through the smart ho system.
Even if the temperature was only a few degrees Celsius, with advanced technology at their disposal, they could still heat it. By then, it would be like an outdoor hot spring.
In about an hour, Tangya and Bai Ningbing returned to the Butterfly Villa residential area.
They had bought a lot of ready-to-eat food. It seed Tangya was self-aware enough to know her limits. Why bother cooking when you could just buy ready-to-eat food?
Now, the pool temperature had reached around 40 degrees Celsius. With the ambient temperature at only eight degrees, steam naturally billowed from the water.
Clothed in bathrobes and holding towels, Tangya and Bai Ningbing made their way to the Infinity Pool Area.
Tangya looked up at the sky and casually remarked, "The sky isn’t even safe now; you have to worry about drones!"
Bai Ningbing responded, "That won’t be an issue. The smart ho system indicates that this area is a no-fly zone; drones are forbidden from coming here!"
"That’s a relief!" Tangya breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Ningbing was the first to shed her bathrobe, reveling in the bliss of the outdoor hot spring.
After getting into the water, she exclaid in delight.
"It’s so comfortable!"
"Mom, co on in! It’s really like soaking in a hot spring!"
