Chapter 48 Mutual Performance
"Let's go," Jiang Baohai said.

Gao Qinghe was taken aback. "Where are we going?"

Jiang Baohai thought to himself, "You came here just so I'd take you back, didn't I?"

He skillfully pulled the car keys from Fang Xiaoyu's pocket, tossed his head at Gao Qingmiao who was carrying empty baskets, and said, "I'll take you back."

Gao Qinghe glanced at him in surprise. Could it be that the sweet talk of giving gifts had worked?
Then she won't be polite!

Watching the car drive away, Fang Xiaolei stepped out from behind the door and exchanged a glance with his older brother, Fang Xiaoyu.

The boss is so stubborn; he always acts like he's not interested in people at all.

It turned out that the person had only come to give a small gift, and they happily followed along.

"Brother, do you think the boss will be back tonight?"

Fang Xiaoyu clicked his tongue and said, "That's hard to say."

If it were him, he would find a way to get into his future in-laws' house and get a meal.

We'll definitely have to drink a little wine with our meal, and who knows, we might end up sleeping at home.

Gao Qinghe didn't know whether Jiang Baohai slept or not.

She's asleep anyway.

It's probably because I was busy preparing for today's festival activities last night, and I've been busy all day today.

Not long after getting on the bus, Gao Qinghe fell asleep leaning against the back of the seat.

Jiang Baohai sensed the unusual quiet around him and glanced at the passenger seat.

The woman was sleeping restlessly with her eyes closed, but she was also very tired, her delicate eyebrows furrowed.

Jiang Baohai avoided the uneven road and slowed down the car.

He chatted with Gao Qingmiao, who was clearly in high spirits, and asked her a few questions about the siblings' street vending situation.

What time do you usually get up?

Gao Qingmiao said, "It's usually six o'clock, occasionally five-thirty."

"How's business?"

"It's great. The goods my sister chose sell well. All the other vendors on the street are envious of us."

"Someone secretly came over to ask us where we got our goods. They think my sister and I are idiots. How could we possibly tell them such trade secrets?"

"Besides, my sister and I worked hard to find the source of the goods ourselves, why should we give them to them for free?"

Before Jiang Baohai could even ask, Gao Qingmiao recounted the entire process of how she and her brother drove into the city to buy goods, how they found those goods, brought them back, and tried to sell them.

It wasn't that he wasn't on guard, but rather that he had a very high opinion of coal mine owners.

Why would a coal mine owner who makes a lot of money be interested in his small business?

There was no competition. He was originally a passionate young man, and he was very warm-hearted, so he couldn't help but talk a little more.

Jiang Baohai listened quietly, occasionally asking a question or two to keep Gao Qingmiao from falling silent.

He appeared calm on the surface, acting like an older brother caring for his younger brother, which made Gao Qingmiao like him even more.

I never thought that nouveau riche coal bosses could be so approachable.

As they chatted, the topic shifted from business to Gao Qinghe.

"Brother Jiang, my sister really cares about you. She talks about you all the time. When we first met, she went to great lengths to carefully select a gift for you."

Jiang Baohai's smile grew wider and wider.

Although it was obvious from the conversation that someone had ulterior motives.

But knowing that she puts her heart into him makes him feel good.

The mountain road was winding and swaying all the way, and with people talking in her ears, she felt very safe, and Gao Qinghe slept deeper and deeper.

Suddenly, the shaking and the talking stopped.

Gao Qinghe woke up immediately.

I opened my eyes and realized the car had stopped.

Jiang Baohai was outside the car, and Gao Qingmiao was following behind him.

In front of the two was a van full of passengers, and the van driver looked worried and somewhat fierce.

However, Jiang Baohai clearly had the upper hand in terms of momentum.

He raised his hand and pointed behind him, his words leaving no room for argument, "You fall back!"

The driver hesitated for a moment, but then sighed, got back into the car, and started reversing.

Jiang Baohai and Gao Qingmiao also returned to the car.

Seeing that Gao Qinghe was awake, Gao Qingmiao explained, "This section of the road is too narrow, it's blocked."

"Let him retreat, then we'll cross." Jiang Baohai looked at the narrow road in front of him and thought to himself, "I'll flatten this road sooner or later!"

In his past life, for Gao Qinghe, a delicate girl who gets carsick easily, he personally funded the widening and paving of this road with asphalt.

But I don't have any money right now, so I'll just have to put up with it. The van had already moved to the very edge of the roadbed, right next to the slope.

Jiang Baohai's car still can't get through!

"Are you sure you can do it?" Gao Qinghe asked worriedly.

Jiang Baohai is definitely not an option.

He's not a professional driver, and besides, how long has it been since he drove on such a mountain road?

He has a driver when he goes out and a private jet when he travels abroad, so he doesn't have time to practice his driving skills.

If someone tries to force their way through now, either the car or the van will be destroyed.

But Jiang Baohai would never admit to such a thing.

He turned off the engine and left it running, letting the driver figure out what to do himself.

He had honked his horn in advance, but the other side couldn't hear him. They didn't even bother to wait in a wider area below. So, he just had to wait it out.

Upon seeing that Jiang Baohai had stalled, the driver of the van knew he was in the wrong and prepared to reverse the car again.

Who would have thought there would be so many cars today? There was no way to turn back.

Jiang Baohai quickly looked behind his car and saw three other cars parked there as well.

The drivers kneading the noodles exchanged a glance, both thinking, "We're doomed."

These days, traffic jams are a common occurrence due to poor road conditions.

Drivers from other vehicles got out and came over to help come up with a solution.

The people in the car got off, and several drivers who claimed to be experienced drivers came to move the vehicle.

More than twenty minutes passed, and they still couldn't move it.

Gao Qinghe swallowed back the instructions that were about to come out of her mouth several times.

Because her current persona is that she doesn't drive, let alone have any experience with driving a car.

Only Jiang Baohai knew that there was one person who could definitely drive the car there.

That was Gao Qinghe standing by the roadside.

This woman drove every type of car she could in her past life. Let alone this little mountain road, she wouldn't hesitate to drive straight up the hill.

But Jiang Baohai couldn't say.

Otherwise, it would reveal that I was also reborn.

While she was feeling anxious, Gao Qinghe couldn't help but come out on her own.

She first gave instructions: "Back up a little, turn the steering wheel all the way to the right, press the accelerator halfway, and ride on it!"

Jiang Baohai understood the first three sentences.

What do the last three words mean?
Gao Qinghe, barely able to contain her impatience, said, "Get on it, it's half uphill, you can drive it at an angle."

The drivers stared in disbelief. Was this even human language?

Why do I not understand?

Gao Qinghe thought to herself, "It seems I can't keep a low profile any longer."

She waved to Jiang Baohai, signaling him to get out of the car, and then got into the driver's seat.

Jiang Baohai knew she could definitely do it, but this was a manual transmission car from forty years in the future.

Just as I was about to remind her of the precautions, I heard a loud "BOOM!"

A plume of smoke rose, and the red sedan, which had been parked flat on the road, had its right front wheel thrown onto the inner slope.

The entire vehicle tilted at a 45-degree angle, and to everyone's astonishment, with one wheel on the road and the other on the slope, it drove steadily across.

After passing the van, turn the steering wheel to the left, causing the wheels stuck on the slope to slowly descend.

With a slight thud from the rear wheel hitting the ground, the car returned perfectly to the center of the road.

The driver gave Jiang Baohai a thumbs-up in admiration and looked at him with envy, saying:

"Your girlfriend's driving skills must have been learned in the military, right? I've really been amazed today!"

Jiang Baohai said indifferently, "It's just so-so." He was arrogant, aloof, and charming.

After engaging the handbrake, Gao Qinghe got out of the driver's seat.

He shouted to the stunned Gao Qingmiao and the expressionless Jiang Baohai, "Let's go."

She opened the passenger door and sat back down.

Jiang Baohai feigned shock, "I didn't expect you to have this skill; you've been keeping it a secret."

Gao Qinghe calmly replied, "I practiced a few times with a retired driver from the army when I was studying in town. It's nothing to mention."

Gao Qingmiao: "Since you've said so, I believe you."

He was afraid he would go crazy if he didn't believe it.
