If you cut in, you will get hit. Do you call this a driving school instructor?

"Recruitment..."

Gu Yin didn't want to discuss this topic with anyone else, so in the end she went to find Xia Qianyi, the female celebrity who had just left that morning.

"Why don't you mention it in your live stream? Your viewership is usually high..." This was Xia Qianyi's suggestion.

That's true. Gu Yin's "Reconciling with Life" program usually has 300,000 to 500,000 viewers online every day. If there's a minor accident, the number of viewers online at the same time will skyrocket, and sometimes it's not uncommon for it to exceed one million.

With such a massive influx of people, even top-tier celebrities wouldn't stand a chance. Why not take advantage of it? A simple mention is more effective than any recruitment brochure.

"Then I'll find someone to make a registration link..." The female celebrity in the video seemed to be applying a face mask. It was late, very late, time to get ready and go to bed...

She said, "I'll share this on my official account, and then you can get everyone to sign up through me."

"Sure." With everything arranged so perfectly, and him only needing to be a hands-off manager, Gu Yin felt he had made the right decision. He said, "Then I'll leave everything to you. But do you think our recruitment will go smoothly?"

"Are you worried about not being able to recruit enough students?" Xia Qianyi was so angry she laughed, and couldn't help but say bluntly, "You should be worried about whether you can teach too many students!"

With Coach Gu's current fame, if he raises his arm and calls out, everyone will surely be in control. I'm afraid he won't be able to teach everyone!

“Okay,” Gu Yin chuckled, “then you do it, I’ll leave it to you.”

"I also asked someone else to do it," Xia Qianyi said with a laugh. "By the way, what do you think of the support video?"

Didn't Gu Yue say this morning that she wanted to ask Xia Qianyi to make a support video?

The female celebrity is really efficient; she sent it over at noon. Gu Yin thought it looked great, but when she showed it to Gu Yue that evening, Gu Yue was so excited she almost jumped for joy…

The female celebrity in the video specifically mentioned that she was a good friend of the students from their school, wishing them success in their exams. What a prestigious thing that is!
"You spoil her too much..." Gu Yin said helplessly, "There's no need to mention her name."

"Girls this age care about their image, right?" Xia Qianyi had a different understanding of this.

The two chatted casually, perhaps because they were talking about the college entrance exam. Xia Qianyi suddenly asked Gu Yin, "By the way... your sister will be on vacation soon after the college entrance exam. What are your plans after she starts her vacation?"

Generally speaking, there are many different arrangements after the college entrance examination. Some people have finally made it through three years of high school and just want to relax and stay at home doing nothing but eating and sleeping.

Some people want to see the outside world. After all, the summer before graduating from high school and going to college is almost the most carefree time in one's life, and many people want to take the opportunity to travel.

Summer vacation is peak tourist season.

Of course, there are also students from impoverished families who have to work during the summer vacation to earn tuition fees...

Similarly, some people want to get their driver's licenses during the summer vacation, so they go to the driving school every day.

In short, students who are at the beginning of their lives after the college entrance examination during the summer vacation have a lot of plans. Xia Qianyi felt that Gu Yin was quite clever and would probably want to go out and have some fun.

Sure enough, Gu Yin said directly, "She's probably planning to take her out for a month, and then come back to learn to drive."

"Are you coming together?" Xia Qianyi asked.

“Yes,” Gu Yin nodded and replied, “I’ll take my mom and my sister with me. My mom hasn’t traveled far in all these years, and she might not have time later if the driving school gets busy, so this is a good opportunity.”

Actually, if things had gone according to plan, given their family's circumstances, even if Gu Yue finished her college entrance exams and Gu Yin wanted to take the whole family on a trip, they would have been reluctant to spend the money.

Tourism is inherently expensive, and summer vacation is peak season, making airfare and accommodation ridiculously expensive. If you're going to Tibet or Yunnan, a one-way ticket can cost 2,000 yuan per person, and a family of three would easily spend 13,000 to 14,000 yuan round trip, not to mention accommodation...

Thirteen or fourteen thousand yuan would be enough for a family to eat and drink for more than half a year if they cooked for themselves in their small county town, so Gu's mother couldn't bear to part with it.

But now there are conditions, aren't there?
If possible, Gu Yue would give her family as much as she could. She didn't mind, but given her mother's health, she might never have the chance to fly again if she didn't take one now.

"Great, that's good. You're really quite filial..." Xia Qianyi couldn't help but look at him with new respect after hearing what he said.

Although Gu Yin was always a difficult person in Xia Qianyi's eyes, it was undeniable that he was both upright and filial, and that he was simply protecting his own interests in a reasonable way.

"So, where do you want to go?" Xia Qianyi held up her index finger and thumb, making a checkmark gesture, and said smugly, "I've been to many places, I can give you some advice!"

"Yunnan should be..." Gu Yin was extremely disappointed as her plan to act as an "advisor" was thwarted.

“…No, you don’t need to go straight here,” Xia Qianyi said. “If you start your trip too high, the places you go later will feel less good than the ones you went to earlier. It’s better to go to a few average places first and then gradually go to better places later.”

"Aren't you just talking nonsense?" Gu Yin laughed. "Who would go to the ordinary place if they could go directly to the best one? What kind of advisor are you, you dog-headed strategist..."

"You're the strategist, what are you saying! Waaaaah!" Xia Qianyi said in the video, sounding both cute and fierce.

"Haha..." Gu Yin laughed heartily.

The two chatted for a while, and then talked about driving school matters. It's worth mentioning that at the end of the conversation, Gu Yin asked Xia Qianyi, "How long are you going to be busy?"

The female celebrity paused slightly upon hearing this, then a helpless expression appeared on her face as she said, "I don't know, my schedule is already booked until the end of the year. Even if I go back, I'll probably only stay for a day or two..."

"I see..." Gu Yin nodded.

"..."

Then the two of them tacitly remained silent.

After a short while, Xia Qianyi said to Gu Yin in a reassuring tone, "Don't worry, I can't possibly not go to the driving school when it opens at the latest. I'll also be participating in a program in Yunnan next month, and maybe I'll have some free time to see you then. We can just meet there, right?"

"Meeting an old friend in a foreign land?" Gu Yin was amused by her words.

"Mmm," Xia Qianyi said, "Don't miss me too much."

"Who wants you..." Gu Yin retorted stubbornly, her eyes darting away.

"Yo yo yo~"

"Ha ha……"

……

With the college entrance exam approaching, things seem to be on fast-forward. Recently, the entire Gu family has been focused on Gu Yue. Not to mention Gu's mother is busy preparing nutrition for her daughter, even Gu Yin has become a "chauffeur," picking her up and dropping her off in his car.

The driving school has dedicated staff; Gu Yin just pays the bills. He doesn't need to constantly monitor things. It's worth mentioning that he occasionally updates the driving school's progress in the group chat he's created with Chuanda Driving School, which is a way of reassuring everyone. I wonder what Ma Jixiang and his dear uncle, Principal Ma, will look like when they find out that Gu Yin has emptied their driving school's coffers…

Of course, all of this will have to wait until after summer vacation.

During the summer vacation, Gu Yinke is going to be busy enjoying life.

While busy taking care of Gu Yue, Gu Yin, having nothing better to do at home, also did some research...

To be honest, Gu Yin was really no expert on these things, so on Xia Qianyi's recommendation, he contacted a travel agency that could customize trips. The price was a bit high, but the service was excellent, and he didn't have to worry about anything throughout the trip...

When Gu Yin traveled alone, he thought it would be enough to just travel on a budget and see the beautiful landscapes of the motherland. But since he was traveling with his family, especially his mother, Gu Yin felt that he couldn't let his mother suffer if he had to. So after looking at the travel agency's itinerary and finding it to be pretty good, he paid the deposit without hesitation, even though the price was a bit high.

Hearing that they were going on a trip, Gu's mother was quite excited. She's been frequently buying travel supplies online lately. Hearing that the UV rays are strong there, she specifically bought some sunscreen spray—of course, only for her and her daughter, not for her son…

It's not that Gu's mother is biased, but in the minds of her generation, they subconsciously believe that boys don't need to play these silly games, you know?

It's good for men to have a tan; it makes them look more masculine!
These are Gu Ma's original words.

Under such "preparations", as time went by, the day of the college entrance examination finally arrived.

Because of the extensive preparations made beforehand, nothing unexpected happened that day. Gu Yue's exam went quite smoothly, and when asked how it went afterward, she seemed quite confident...

In fact, Gu Yue has always been a worry-free person for her family. Unlike Gu Yin, her academic performance has always been quite stable, consistently ranking in the top three of her class and the top fifty of her grade. Even during the time when Gu Yin thought she had been "tricked by Huang Mao," her grades never changed.

But then again…

While something may be good locally, you still need to consider where "local" refers to.

As a high school graduate from Shandong, a province known for its intense civil service exams, Gu Yue, who comes from a small county, could not reach the same academic heights as students from other provinces, and was destined to miss out on those prestigious universities. Getting into a 211 or 985 university would be considered a "defying fate"!

Fortunately, Gu Yin didn't have high expectations for these things...

He thinks it's not important what university his sister goes to or what job she does. As long as she's happy, that's all that matters.

Anyway...

Exams are over!
After a good two or three days of rest and relaxation, Gu Yue, along with her family, embarked on a trip to Yunnan, a province known for its colorful clouds, on a Monday when there weren't many people around.

The whole family was quite happy going on a trip, especially Gu Yue. The little girl was taking pictures everywhere, snapping away with the latest iPhone 16pm 1TB top-of-the-line model that Gu Yin had rewarded her with. She chattered non-stop the whole way, her face full of "anticipation" and "excitement".

Gu Yin was completely exasperated and couldn't help but complain, "...Gu Yue, shut up! If you keep chattering, I'll kick you off the stage!"

"You think you can do that!" Gu Yue didn't take it seriously at all, shouting, "You want to kick me off the plane? Would the staff allow it?"

"Hey, I've noticed you're really..." Gu Yin was so angry that she was about to go over and slap her.

"You two are really something!" Even Gu's mother felt embarrassed.

Gu Yue is one thing, after all, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl is at the height of her life, but Gu Yin has so many older sisters, yet he acts like a child who never grows up, fighting with them every day...

Gu Yin still complained about this: "Oh, I let your daughter have her way for so many days before the college entrance exam, and now that the exam is over, I have to listen to her? Is it possible to be that biased?!"

Gu's mother: "(￢_￢) Glance"

Hello, you've made it!
In short, the mother and her two children boarded the plane amidst their constant bickering.

It was already afternoon when they landed. Because it was a private customized trip, the travel agency staff came to pick them up early. Gu Yin received a call from them before she even got off the plane. Following their instructions, she left the airport, got into the car, and drove to the hotel to drop off her luggage.

The hotel I booked seemed to be a star-rated one, but to be honest, in Gu Yin's eyes, no hotel is as good as home, so they were all the same...

The service was pretty good. When they got off the bus, someone was there to help them carry their luggage to their room. Once the check-in process was complete, they just had to go.

"Wow~ The clouds over here are so beautiful!" While Gu Yin and her mother were checking in, Gu Yue ran outside and started taking pictures like crazy with her phone.

Yunnan, known as "the land of colorful clouds in the south," has clouds that are distinctly layered with the sky. Each cloud looks like a delicious cotton candy, making you want to take a bite.

"Stop filming, put your things down, rest for a while, and then go eat," Gu Yin called out from afar.

"Eating?!" Gu Yue, who had a strong craving for pigs, immediately perked up at the mention of food and asked, "What are we eating? What are we eating?"

Since the first meal upon arriving in the area was definitely to try the local cuisine, Gu Yue had done a lot of research beforehand. But who knew that Gu Yin would grin mischievously and say, "Shaxian!"

Gu Yue: "..."

"No, no, no!" She really wanted to kill Gu Yin!

"Ah ha ha……"

Gu Yin laughed heartily; of course, he couldn't possibly bring his family to eat at Shaxian snack shop...

The travel agency has already made arrangements to take them to a well-known local restaurant for mushroom hot pot.

Mushroom hot pot is a local specialty of Yunnan. The main ingredient is mushrooms, which are abundant in the mountains. After the rain, people even go up the mountain to pick mushrooms. These mushrooms are quite expensive and not something that ordinary people can afford...

It's worth mentioning that many of these mushrooms are poisonous, the most famous of which is the "Jianshouqing" (见手青), which can really kill you if you're not careful.

"Brother," Gu Yue asked Gu Yin on the way to dinner, "Should we rent a car? I saw that some people say they rent cars to go around Erhai Lake."

“Let’s look back…” Gu Yin replied.

Although it's nice to have a tour with a travel agency and it's worry-free, it always feels awkward to have an outsider with the family when traveling together, so Gu Yin had actually considered renting a car.

What frustrated Gu Yin the most was that, damn it, this very car rental company had an accident.

Even though it's out of town, there are still plenty of people driving recklessly!
