"Why do you need to think about it for a while?" Chen Ling asked Li Lili curiously.

"No, I was just trying to feel my emotions," Li Lili said with a smile.

"You're such a cutie," Chen Ling couldn't help but say after hearing what Li Lili said.

“Well, that’s not it,” Li Lili quickly retorted.

"Let me tell you, I reckon when you came back, you weren't really stressed, you were probably just hungry," Chen Ling said, then immediately laughed.

However, Li Lili calmly replied, "Your assumption is actually quite possible."

"Haha, you foodie," Chen Ling said with a laugh.

"Alright, just drive your car. I'm going to browse my WeChat Moments for a bit." Li Lili said to Chen Ling, then took out her phone to play for a while.

However, Chen Ling, who was standing to the side, started to pout after hearing Li Lili's words, feeling quite resentful.

Chapter 404 Overcoming Obstacles 2

Li Lili sensed the awkward atmosphere and turned to look at Chen Ling. However, Chen Ling's face was full of reluctance.

Looking at Chen Ling's expression, Li Lili felt utterly helpless.

So Li Lili spoke up again, "What's wrong? Don't you want me to play on my phone? Okay, then I'll chat with you for a bit longer."

"No need, you can play on your phone," Chen Ling said calmly.

“When a girl says she doesn’t need it, she means she does. Tell me, when you boys say you don’t need it, do you really mean you don’t need it, or do you mean you do?” Li Lili asked Chen Ling deliberately.

At this moment, Chen Ling was also amused by Li Lili's words.

"Alright, if you want to play on your phone, go ahead and play for a while. I'm not as stingy as you girls," Chen Ling said at this moment.

However, upon hearing this, Li Lili immediately replied sweetly, "Okay."

After Li Lili finished speaking, she immediately started playing on her phone. At this moment, Chen Ling turned to look at Li Lili again and thought to himself, "Really, she actually went and played on her phone after I told her to. She doesn't hold back at all."

Chen Ling kept having doubts, but fortunately the journey wasn't too far, and they arrived soon after.

"Alright, we're here. Get ready and start practicing." Chen Ling said after stopping the car.

"Okay, sure." However, after the car stopped, Li Lili felt a little scared.

"What's wrong?" Chen Ling, who was standing to the side, also noticed Li Lili's unusual behavior.

"Hmm, I'm getting a little excited again. What should I do?" Li Lili looked at Chen Ling and said with a wronged expression.

"Um... then calm yourself down first. It's nothing, it's all in your head. Just relax. Don't think about anything." Chen Ling quickly began to speak.

"Huff, huff..." Li Lili took a deep breath after hearing what Chen Ling said.

"Are you feeling better?" After a while, Chen Ling asked Li Lili.

"Mmm, much better," Li Lili nodded in response.

"Then you go drive, I'll sit in the passenger seat," Chen Ling said.

"Oh, okay," Li Lili said calmly.

After Li Lili finished speaking, she got off the bus.

Soon, the two of them got back into the car.

"Don't be nervous, I'm right next to you, I won't let anything happen to you," Chen Ling said from the side.

"I'm panicking," Li Lili said immediately after hearing this.

"It's okay, relax, relax," Chen Ling continued to comfort Li Lili.

"Hmm," Li Lili replied casually, but hesitated to drive.

Just then, Chen Ling continued, "Let me tell you, don't overthink it, don't think about anything. You're a beginner, you've never driven before, and you want to learn to drive. What should you do? Relax. Relax, okay, right, start slowly."

Hearing Chen Ling's voice, Li Lili felt a little better, but she still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Seeing that Li Lili still refused to start, Chen Ling said again, "Ningxue, I believe in you. Keep going."

"No, I dare not touch it, I dare not!" Li Lili said loudly to Chen Ling.

At that moment, Chen Ling looked at Li Lili and felt extremely sorry for her. He wanted to say, "Then let's stop practicing," but he knew that Li Lili wanted to overcome this difficulty.

"It's okay, relax, keep going, I believe in you, you can do it." Chen Ling continued to encourage Li Lili.

Li Lili turned to Chen Ling and asked, "Can I really do it?"

"Yes, you really can do it," Chen Ling continued.

Li Lili then took another deep breath and slammed on the gas pedal. The car started moving again.

"Hmm, you did a good job. Try slowing down. Try going slower." Chen Ling continued.

So Li Lili followed Chen Ling's instructions and gradually slowed down...

"Yes, it's very good," Chen Ling said, praising Li Lili.

"Chen Ling, can I drive now? Am I driving again?" Li Lili was extremely excited at this moment, so she continued to ask.

"Haha, yes, you're making those inappropriate jokes again." Chen Ling couldn't help but laugh as he looked at Li Lili's happy expression.

"That's wonderful," Li Lili continued.

"Drive slower, don't go so fast," Chen Ling said.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili immediately began to slow down.

"I told you you could do it," Chen Ling continued.

"Haha, I'm so happy. But, my car..." Li Lili began.

"Your car is broken. I didn't fix it for you last time. I'll buy you a new one in a couple of days," Chen Ling said with a smile.

"Huh? Buy another one? Um, let's wait. Let's wait until the company gets a new project and makes money before buying one," Li Lili said with a smile.

However, Chen Ling, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh after hearing what Li Lili said.

"Of course, it'll be after the company closes the deal. Otherwise, how am I supposed to afford a car for you right now? I'm penniless and have nothing," Chen Ling said with a smile.

“That’s not right. How can you say you have nothing? You still have me. I am your greatest treasure.” Li Lili turned to look at Chen Ling and said seriously.

"You just told me not to be so cocky and to keep a low profile, but look at you, you're even cockier than me now," Chen Ling said with a smile, looking at Li Lili.

“Where is it? Tell me yourself, aren’t I your greatest asset?” Li Lili asked Chen Ling.

"Yes, yes, you are my greatest treasure. Okay, okay, let's drive carefully," Chen Ling continued.

Seeing that Li Lili's technique had become more skillful, Chen Ling said, "I think you've practiced enough now. Why don't you drive back?"

"Okay, I'll drive." Li Lili immediately agreed after hearing this.

"Then you focus on driving. I'll browse my WeChat Moments for a bit," Chen Ling said from the side.

Upon hearing Chen Ling's words, Li Lili felt somewhat displeased, but she knew that she had treated Chen Ling the same way when they arrived, so she could only remain silent.

Chapter 405 Empathy

Chen Ling said this on purpose, because Li Lili had said the same thing to him when he arrived. So at this moment, Chen Ling was secretly observing Li Lili's reaction.

"Are you unhappy?" Chen Ling asked deliberately when he saw that Li Lili had stopped talking.

"No, why do you say that? Why am I unhappy?" Li Lili turned to look at Chen Ling and said.

However, seeing that Li Lili didn't mention it, Chen Ling decided not to bring it up either.

"It's good that you're not unhappy." Chen Ling then added.

"It's fine, I'm not unhappy," Li Lili said calmly.

At this moment, Li Lili was actually a little unhappy, mainly because of what Chen Ling had just said. However, Li Lili genuinely didn't want to dwell on it.

Chen Ling then opened his phone and began scrolling through his WeChat Moments.

Li Lili, standing to the side, kept stealing glances at Chen Ling. Seeing Chen Ling engrossed in his phone only fueled her displeasure. However, out of pride, she didn't show it.

Chen Ling was doing it on purpose, so he was naturally well aware of it. But it was precisely because of this that Chen Ling became even more audacious.

After a while, Chen Ling turned to Li Lili and deliberately asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

“Weren’t you playing on your phone? What am I supposed to say?” Li Lili turned to Chen Ling and said.

Upon hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling immediately burst out laughing.

Then Chen Ling deliberately said, "Oh, then you can talk too. I can talk to you while I'm playing on my phone."

However, Li Lili felt even more uncomfortable when she heard Chen Ling say those words.

"No need, I'll just focus on driving. You can play on your phone." Li Lili's attitude became impatient, and then she said indifferently.

"Oh, then don't say I ignored you later," Chen Ling said deliberately.

At this moment, Li Lili's complexion became increasingly worse.

"Hmm," Li Lili replied in a low, indifferent voice.

"Okay, I'm going to play on my phone now," Chen Ling said, feigning excitement.

However, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, was feeling even more upset.

"Can you stop playing?" Li Lili said to Chen Ling, looking straight ahead.

"Oh, what's wrong?" Chen Ling asked deliberately.

"Hey, stop playing around." Li Lili said impatiently.

"Sure, if you don't want to play, then don't," Chen Ling said casually.

After Chen Ling finished speaking, he stared at Li Lili, wondering how she would respond.

However, Li Lili remained silent for a short while afterward. Chen Ling, standing to the side, couldn't help but speak up again.

"What's wrong?" Chen Ling asked.

"Nothing much," Li Lili replied casually.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't let me play on my phone? Look, I don't play on it anymore. So what happens when you ignore me?" Chen Ling said, feeling wronged.
