In the following days, Lu Hao accompanied me every day to practice driving, and I gradually became more skilled. A week later, I finally passed the driving test. The moment I received my Driver's License, I was overjoyed and immediately messaged Lu Hao.
"I passed!" I said happily.
"Congratulations!" he replied.
"Thank you!" I responded.
"You're welcome," he replied.
That evening, I treated my roommates to a meal to celebrate my successful acquisition of the Driver's License.
"I didn't expect you to get your Driver's License so quickly," Zhang Qian remarked.
"I didn't expect it either," I laughed.
"This is what we call hard work paying off," Xiao Mei said.
"Yeah," I nodded.
We chatted and ate, enjoying a pleasant atmosphere. After dinner, we returned to the dormitory and continued our casual conversation.
"Li Ting, you seem to be getting close to Lu Hao lately," Xiao Min suddenly said.
"Yeah," I nodded.
"Are you two... dating?" Xiao Mei asked curiously.
"Not yet," I shook my head.
"Why not?" Zhang Qian inquired.
"I don't know; I feel like we haven't reached that stage yet," I said.
"Oh," Zhang Qian nodded.
We fell silent for a moment, and then Xiao Min suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Mei asked.
"I think Li Ting and Lu Hao make a great couple; it would be nice if they could be together," Xiao Min said.
"I think so too," Zhang Qian agreed.
"Thank you for your support," I smiled.
We continued chatting, and before we knew it, time flew by quickly.
On Monday, Lu Hao took me out to practice driving again. Coach Liu Ming was as strict as ever; any small mistake would result in having to start over. I was scolded harshly by him while sitting in the backseat watching Lu Hao drive.
He was holding back laughter so much that his body was shaking.
"What are you laughing at?" I glared at him.
"Sorry." He shook his head but still couldn't hold it in.
Coach Liu Ming got out of the car to smoke a cigarette, and when he came back and saw me still looking at him, he frowned.
"What are you staring at? Practice driving!" he shouted.
I shrank my neck, not daring to speak, and obediently practiced driving.
But I still made a mistake.
"What’s wrong with you? How can you make such a basic error?" Coach Liu Ming scolded.
"I'm sorry, I..." I hadn't finished explaining when he interrupted me.
"If you make this kind of basic mistake again, I'll really lose my temper."
I fell silent.
Lu Hao in the back seat couldn't help but laugh again.
"What are you laughing at?" Coach Liu Ming turned to look at him.
"Nothing, nothing, you go on." Lu Hao tried to suppress his laughter and waved his hand.
"You better not cause trouble for me, or I'll scold you too," Coach Liu Ming threatened.
"Got it, got it, you do your thing," Lu Hao replied.
Coach Liu Ming huffed and continued to guide me in practicing driving.
During the lunch break, I finally couldn't help but ask Lu Hao,
"Are you very familiar with Coach Liu?"
"Yeah." Lu Hao nodded, "We've known each other since we were kids."
"Oh." I nodded in response.
"His family is in business and quite wealthy, but he doesn't like doing business; he loves cars. He liked them since he was young and later got into a professional racing school and became a race car driver after graduation," Lu Hao explained.
"Wow, that's so cool," I said in surprise.
"Yeah, but his dad didn't agree and forced him to come back and take over the family business," Lu Hao sighed.
"How did he manage to stick with it?" I asked curiously.
"What could he do? He argued with his dad and even ran away from home; he did everything he could," Lu Hao said.
"You ran away from home?" I widened my eyes at Lu Hao.
"Yeah." Lu Hao nodded.
"What about you? Did you ever run away from home?" I pressed on.
"Me?" Lu Hao laughed, "Of course not."
"Really?" I looked at him skeptically.
"Really," Lu Hao affirmed, "I'm so well-behaved; how could I run away from home?"
"Cut it out." I rolled my eyes. "I don't believe you."
"If you don't believe me, that's fine." Lu Hao shrugged.
"Hey, I'm serious. Did you ever do anything rebellious when you were a kid?" I asked curiously.
"Rebellious?" Lu Hao raised an eyebrow. "I'm so well-behaved; how could I be rebellious?"
"Yeah, right." I scoffed.
"What am I bragging about?" Lu Hao looked at me in confusion.
"You said you never ran away from home. So tell me, did you ever do anything rebellious as a child?" I pressed.
"I..." Lu Hao hesitated for a moment. "In high school, I once tried to run away from home."
"Really?" I was taken aback. "Why?"
"Because I didn't want to follow my parents' plans for me; I wanted to live my own life," Lu Hao said calmly.
"And then what happened?" I asked.
"Then I went to Japan," Lu Hao replied.
"Really?" I was surprised. "Did your parents let you go?"
"What could they do if they didn't want me to go? I was already an adult; could they really stop me?" Lu Hao countered.
"So how long did you stay in Japan?" I asked.
"Three years," Lu Hao answered.
"Three years?" My eyes widened. "Didn't you miss the college entrance exam?"
"Yeah," Lu Hao nodded.
"So how did you...?"
"Later, I went to Paris and lived there for two years," Lu Hao said.
"Paris?" I exclaimed in shock. "Why did you go to Paris?"
"Because I wanted to see the world outside," Lu Hao replied.
I stared at Lu Hao, speechless for a long time.
