Chapter 84: Beginner's Driving Skills! (Part 2)

"Xiao Ru, is this your first time driving?" Du Zixi turned his head and asked Lin Xinru.

"Yeah, I haven't driven since I got my driver's license. Brother Mo, don't joke around. If you buy me a new car and I end up damaging it, what will we do?" Lin Xinru still felt uneasy.

"As long as you don't step on the gas pedal recklessly and crash into someone, it'll be fine. Drive however you want," Chen Mo laughed.

"Then let's get a Ferrari," Lin Xinru said.

"Huh? Those cars are really expensive. It's not a good idea for me to drive one for the first time," Lin Xinru felt that the price of such a car was extraordinary as soon as she heard the word "Ferrari."

She had just said that it was her first time driving, but now she was picking something expensive.

Du Zixi laughed and said, "A convertible sports car is perfect for a beginner like you. You can easily observe everything around you and have a clearer view of your surroundings."

Hearing Du Zixi's words, Lin Xinru found them quite reasonable and didn't say anything more.

Chen Mo laughed and said, "Then let's buy it. The one billion yuan that Director Du gave me, I haven't spent it properly yet."

"One billion!?" Lin Xinru almost thought she misheard.

"Then let's go and cash the check for you," Du Zixi said with a smile.

Soon, Du Zixi drove Chen Mo and Lin Xinru to the bank and cashed the one billion yuan check, depositing it into Chen Mo's account.

Looking at the message Chen Mo received on his phone, along with the long string of numbers on it, Lin Xinru had never seen so much money in her life.

Her Brother Mo, who used to work hard to make ends meet, had suddenly become a billionaire.

This was something she never could have imagined.

As Chen Mo's money arrived in his account, he smiled at Lin Xinru and said, "Let me treat you to something delicious."

Lin Xinru smiled and said, "I was supposed to treat you today."

"It's the same thing."

Seeing the close relationship between the two, Du Zixi casually said, "You two lovebirds are really sweet."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xinru shook her head and said, "Sister Du, you misunderstood. Brother Mo and I are not in a romantic relationship."

"Huh?"

This statement surprised Du Zixi.

Seeing Lin Xinru hugging and cuddling with Chen Mo so naturally, she thought they were a couple.

If they weren't a couple, then why were they so intimate? Was Chen Mo just Lin Xinru's cousin?

Du Zixi didn't ask any further.

She actually didn't want to hear answers that she didn't want to hear.

She preferred to keep her own speculations.

"Let's go, let's go see the car."

After learning that Lin Xinru and Chen Mo were not a couple, Du Zixi's mood noticeably improved compared to before.

As girls, Lin Xinru naturally noticed this.

"Indeed, Brother Mo is becoming more and more popular," she glanced at Chen Mo and Du Zixi sitting in the front seat.

From the surface, they seemed more like a suitable couple.

A talented man and a beautiful woman, Du Zixi was beautiful, had a good temperament, gentle personality, and came from a strong family background. Lin Xinru felt that she couldn't compare.

However, although Lin Xinru felt a bit uncertain when she saw Chen Mo and Du Zixi sitting together, she felt reassured when she thought about Chen Mo buying a car for her with his own money. Thinking about this, she felt a little better.

At this moment, the two girls had different thoughts, while Chen Mo was leisurely planning his next move.

The main task was to have ten Rank Five or above friends and relatives, with at least five of them having a favorability rating of 90 points or above.

Currently, Liu Qinlan and Mu Xiyue had helped Chen Mo complete two of the requirements.

Du Zixi was still lacking 10 points, so two more people needed to be brought up to 90 points.

Su Ya and Yu Siyu were good targets.

As long as he could raise the favorability of five people to 90 points, it would be easy to become friends with the remaining five, just by making friends with five Rank Five or above people.

If the Rank Nine Corpse King counted, Chen Mo could complete one less requirement.

Unfortunately, Lin Xinru's full favorability as the Rank Nine Corpse King didn't count.

After taking a glance at the progress of the main task, Chen Mo shifted his focus back to the matter of swallowing the Hong family.

The incident just now, where a terminally ill patient almost came to blow up the people around him, had pushed Chen Mo's patience with the Tang family to its limit.

However, there was no way to stop the Tang family's plan to deal with him. After all, the Hong family must have been involved, and there were many who wanted to buy his life.

In this case, he could only completely crush the Hong family.

Without the Hong family, the Tang family in Shanghai would be nothing special. By then, he could easily manipulate them.

Killing the high-level members of the Tang family might be useless, but threatening them would definitely be more effective than killing them.

After dealing with the peripheral forces of the Hong family according to plan tonight, Chen Mo planned to go to the Tang family and give them a threat, letting them know that he was not someone to be trifled with. This would at least stabilize the situation for a while, so they wouldn't frequently use these human bomb tactics to disgust him.

With his thoughts settled, Chen Mo unexpectedly glanced at Du Zixi and Lin Xinru, who were unusually quiet in the car. He immediately smiled and lightened the atmosphere.

With him joining the conversation, the two girls could chat more freely.

Just now, they were both lost in their own thoughts.

After chatting for a while, the three of them arrived at the Ferrari 4S store.

Since Chen Mo had already mentioned in the car that Du Zixi, as a professional, would help Lin Xinru choose, Du Zixi directly picked a red sports car for her when they entered the dealership.

Lin Xinru didn't dare to say whether she liked it or not. The prices of the cars here were already ridiculously expensive. No matter what car Du Zixi chose, she just nodded blankly to show her approval.

Seeing this, Du Zixi could only choose the one she thought was most suitable.

As soon as Du Zixi made her choice, Chen Mo immediately paid for it without hesitation.

However, when he learned that they would have to wait for some time to pick up the car, Chen Mo turned around and went to the neighboring dealership where he could immediately buy a car that was in stock and ready to be driven away, using his credit card to make the purchase.

The speed at which he bought the car and his casual attitude left Du Zixi and Lin Xinru a little stunned.

"You buy cars faster than you buy groceries," Du Zixi said helplessly with a smile.

"A car is meant to be driven. If it breaks, you replace it. There's no fun in picking and choosing," Chen Mo said with a faint smile.

"Then let's get you a good license plate while we're at it."

"The vehicle registration office should be closed at this hour."

"No problem, I have some connections there. Just drive the car with me to get the license plate," Du Zixi said to Chen Mo with a smile.

Soon, the dealership brought Chen Mo's car over. Originally, they were going to get temporary license plates, but Du Zixi told them they didn't need to.

"It's convenient to have connections. Miss Du, please lead the way," Chen Mo said, sitting in the driver's seat of the new car.

"Are you sure you can handle it?" Du Zixi looked at Chen Mo and asked.

"Although I haven't driven much after getting my driver's license, I've learned by watching others," Chen Mo confidently said.

"This is not a joking matter, don't mess around," Du Zixi sternly said.

"Don't worry, I really can," Chen Mo replied with a smile.

Seeing Chen Mo's confident attitude, Du Zixi still wasn't reassured. She let him drive after he made a round, just to be sure.

"Xiao Ru, this guy is driving for the first time. You should ride in my car first, let him drive alone for a while, so he doesn't cause any trouble for you," Du Zixi said.

Upon hearing Du Zixi's words, Lin Xinru immediately smiled and said, "Okay, senior."

On the way, Du Zixi drove in front but kept an eye on Chen Mo through the rearview mirror.

Seeing that the other party was driving steadily all the way, she felt a bit more at ease.

Lin Xinru also kept an eye on Chen Mo's driving situation from behind.

Seeing Chen Mo driving smoothly, she couldn't help but gain some confidence in her own first-time driving experience.

After all, Chen Mo was also driving for the first time.

"Driving straight is generally not a problem even for beginners, but reversing on narrow roads is difficult," Du Zixi said, mischievously adding, "I should test him on a narrow road."

"Ah? Brother Mo just started driving, isn't it too much of a test for him?" Lin Xinru immediately said.

"It's fine, it's not that narrow of a road, just the kind where you need to pay attention to the left and right. The main point is to test his stability," Du Zixi said with a smile.

Soon, she deliberately drove the car into a narrow alley between residential buildings.

To her surprise, Chen Mo followed and drove steadily.

He even maintained a perfect distance from the obstacles on both sides.

This truly surprised Du Zixi.

"It seems that Chen Mo is quite talented. He can drive steadily on his first try," she said.

After testing Chen Mo a bit, Du Zixi didn't make him drive around aimlessly.

She took him directly to the vehicle management office.

After elegantly and effortlessly parking in a parking space, she was about to get out of the car to see how Chen Mo, as a newcomer, would park. But she saw Chen Mo perform a perfect parking maneuver just like her, smoothly entering the parking space.

She couldn't help but be stunned.

At this moment, Chen Mo got out of the car and smiled, saying, "How about it, Miss Du? Is my driving skill up to par?"

"Chen Mo, are you kidding me? Are you really a beginner with this driving skill?" Du Zixi looked at Chen Mo with an incredulous expression.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "I really am a beginner, I just watched a lot of videos of skilled drivers and learned some techniques."

"You're joking with me. I've never heard of someone learning techniques by watching videos of skilled drivers," Du Zixi felt a bit dumbfounded.

Meanwhile, Lin Xinru, who was beside them, praised Chen Mo's parking maneuver, saying it was quite cool.

Chen Mo smiled and ruffled her hair, saying, "If you want to learn, I can teach you next time."

"Alright, let's get the driver's license first."

With Du Zixi's connections, Chen Mo's new car quickly completed all the procedures and got its license plate.

"I've done my part, so I'll leave now," Du Zixi said as she prepared to leave after helping.

Chen Mo immediately said, "That's not acceptable. You've worked hard for half a day. Can't I treat you to a meal?"

Du Zixi immediately smiled and said, "Chen the Divine Doctor, your kindness to our Du family is immeasurable. I owe you so much that even if I offer myself, it wouldn't be enough. If I go back without being scolded by my dad, I'll be lucky."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo laughed and said, "That's not a thank you. I'll treat you as a friend."

Du Zixi glanced at Lin Xinru and said, "Next time, I have something to do today."

"Sure, you can remember this meal. Feel free to find me whenever you have time." Chen Mo smiled.

"It's not easy to make Chen the Divine Doctor owe me a meal. I can't bear to eat it casually, so I'll save it for later." Du Zixi smiled and drove away.

"Now that the car is bought, it's time to eat. Get in the car, and I'll treat you to a good meal." Lin Xinru looked at Chen Mo after getting in the car and said, "Brother Mo, it seems like that Sister Zixi really likes you."

"What's wrong? Are you jealous again?" Chen Mo teased.

"You said I still have plenty of bowls to eat, so I don't need to eat anymore." Lin Xinru smiled helplessly.

"I saved her father before, so she is more grateful to me." Chen Mo briefly explained.

"I see. Sister Zixi is beautiful, has a good figure, good temperament, and comes from a good family. She's quite suitable to be your partner." Lin Xinru commented.

"Then I'll try to develop something with her." Chen Mo immediately smiled.

"You playboy." Lin Xinru immediately rolled her eyes at Chen Mo.

"You said she's good, so I can't let others take advantage of it."

"So, am I the one taking advantage?" Lin Xinru smiled.

Chen Mo immediately lifted her chin and kissed her red lips, saying, "What do you think?"

Lin Xinru smiled, didn't answer, and just felt happy, saying, "Let's go, let's have a feast."

Chen Mo, who had mastered impressive driving skills through the Perfect Replication ability, drove fast and steadily.

After a while, the two arrived at the Red Fate Square, a romantic dating spot for couples.

There were many couple restaurants here, and Chen Mo remembered a three-star Michelin couple restaurant called "Maple Night." He planned to bring Lin Xinru here to enjoy a good meal.

With extremely skilled driving skills, Chen Mo quickly parked the car and led Lin Xinru towards the Maple Night restaurant.

As the saying goes, "Park XX Maple Night."

The name of this restaurant has some meaning.

This restaurant is not only a restaurant but also provides hotel-like accommodation services. The rooms have many special devices that can provide guests with various intimate services.

After Chen Mo and Lin Xinru parked the car and walked out of the garage, they heard a cute and childish voice.

"Big brother, buy a bouquet of flowers for the pretty sister."

Hearing this familiar voice, Chen Mo immediately turned his head.

Lin Xinru's gaze fell on the delicate flowers in the little girl's hand.

"Oh? Tongtong?"

Chen Mo was surprised, and the little girl suddenly rushed towards him, happily shouting, "Brother Mo!"

Chen Mo immediately squatted down and hugged her.

"Huh? Do you know each other?" Lin Xinru asked in surprise.

Chen Mo hugged Tongtong and smiled, "Her name is Ye Tong. I met her and her mother, Qingjie, when I was working before. Qingjie took care of me back then."

After saying that, Chen Mo smiled and touched Ye Tong's head, asking, "Where is your mom, Tongtong? Why are you selling roses here so late at night?"

At the same time, Chen Mo glanced at the label on Ye Tong's head and couldn't help but be surprised. It was unexpected that this little girl not only survived in the apocalypse but also thrived.

The label on Ye Tong's head showed that she was a Rank Six Anomalous Being, indicating that this little girl had mutated into an Anomalous Being in the apocalypse and had considerable strength.

This really surprised Chen Mo.

Originally, when the apocalypse came, the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled were the most vulnerable, and it was considered lucky to survive, let alone reach such a high level. It seems that Ye Tong's luck is quite good.
