Chapter 239: I've Only Watched Videos for One Day!
"Ah!" Upon hearing the driver's anxious and urgent warning, a wave of fearful shrieks suddenly erupted in the carriage.
Having the car go out of control is a very, very dangerous thing!
If you're lucky, it might result in a collision.
Unluckily, it could even cause the vehicle to roll over.
But whether it's a collision or a rollover, it's a nightmare for both the driver and passengers.
Either dead or injured!
At that moment, the out-of-control minivan was like a runaway wild horse, completely uncontrollable and hurtling across the road haphazardly.
"What to do?"
"Driver, can't you brake?"
"We're doomed now!"
The passengers in the vehicle had all turned pale with fright!
The driver was even more terrified, as if he had lost his soul!
The situation was very bad!
The car couldn't stop at all, and it happened to be rush hour after work. It was the peak traffic time, and a collision could lead to a series of accidents.
"Lin Tian!" Bu Mengting clung to Lin Tian's arm, her soul still unsettled.
"No, we have to make the car stop!" Lin Tian pondered secretly, then signaled for Bu Mengting to let go of him and stood up, rushing directly toward the driver.
Having just learned to drive online in the past two days, Lin Tian decided to give it a shot himself.
It couldn't be helped; this driver seemed very unreliable!
Reaching the driver's side, Lin Tian didn't say a word and directly yanked the driver away, then sat down in the driver's seat himself.
The driver, suddenly pulled away, was shocked.
Turning his head and realizing that Lin Tian was just a young kid, he couldn't help but loudly complain, "Hey, what are you doing? Do you know how dangerous it is right now..."
"Don't shout!" Lin Tian roared without turning his head.
Startled by Lin Tian's formidable yell, the driver hurriedly shut up.
Glancing at Lin Tian, the driver quickly found a place to hold on tight, thinking to himself, "Anyway, I'm completely powerless now. This guy is so arrogant, let him stir things up. Later, I'll just put the blame on him!"
"Watch out, we're going to hit something!" Seeing the minivan about to crash into the rear of a bus, the driver couldn't help but shout loudly.
Hiss!
Lin Tian suddenly turned the steering wheel to the left.
The minivan closely skirted the tail of the bus, slipping into the gap in the left lane, only scraping off a bit of paint and leaving a shallow scratch.
Just as they made it into the gap in the left lane, a large truck was coming head-on.
"It's over! We're definitely done for this time!" The driver's heartbeat accelerated drastically, and he suddenly felt weak, slumping down in the cabin.
"It's over!"
"We're going to crash!"
"We're done for!"
Apart from Bu Mengting, everyone else also started screaming loudly.
But the outcome surprised everyone!
Lin Tian forcefully steered to the right, and the minivan's front end almost grazed the front of the large truck as they passed each other.

"Phew!" Seeing the minivan narrowly avoid a collision with the large truck, all the passengers in the vehicle instantly let out a long sigh of relief.
But no one relaxed!
The minivan was still out of control; only by stopping could the danger be resolved.
"Brother, hang in there!"
"Our lives are in your hands now!"
"Hold on, we're all counting on you!"
By this time, everyone in the vehicle was fixated on Lin Tian.
Everyone had placed their hopes on Lin Tian, loudly cheering him on, hoping he could get them safely through the danger.
And Lin Tian did not disappoint everyone!
The minivan's speed was unabated, yet it moved like a fish in water, weaving through the congested traffic, dodging and threading its way through.
Each time, Lin Tian managed to narrowly avoid collision dangers.
Several times, everyone thought for sure they were going to crash, but under his driving, they merely brushed past danger.
Lin Tian maneuvered the minivan, continuing forward in tense excitement for three to four hundred meters.
Finally, about ten meters ahead, there appeared a construction site next to the road with a mound of sand piled up like a small hill.
"Phew!" Seeing the mound of sand, Lin Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Without a doubt, this was a good place to stop!
Without thinking, Lin Tian turned the steering wheel sharply, driving the minivan toward the mound of sand.
Thud!
The minivan plunged into the sand.
Shortly after, due to the overload, the engine automatically shut down.
"We're finally safe!" Lin Tian exhaled, turned around, and flashed a smile at Bu Mengting, who sat on the seat stunned.
"Lin Tian, you scared me to death just now!" Bu Mengting immediately rushed over and hugged Lin Tian.
Lin Tian chuckled and patted her back, "Silly girl, what's there to be afraid of? I'm here, I won't let anything happen to you!"
"Yes!" Bu Mengting nodded her head and followed Lin Tian out of the car.
All the passengers in the vehicle also disembarked one after another.
"Young man, your driving skills are incredible!" No sooner had they gotten out of the car than the minivan's driver approached Lin Tian, excitedly praising him.
"Hehe, not too bad!" Lin Tian said with a humble laugh.
Though he sounded modest, there was an undeniable pride hidden in his smile.
He had only learned how to drive online for two days, and today was his first actual practice. Astonishingly, he resolved the van's uncontrollability.
This could definitely be described as a miracle!
"You are really amazing!" the van driver said, shaking his head and smiling, "You saw how dangerous the situation was just now. If it weren't for you, we all would have been in great danger today!"
Before Lin Tian could respond, the driver curiously asked, "By the way, with your driving skills so formidable, you must be a professional racer, right?"
"A professional racer?" Lin Tian paused, then shook his head, "No! I just watched some videos online for a day, and today is my first time driving…"
"What? You only watched videos for one day?" Hearing Lin Tian's words, the driver's jaw dropped, his eyes widening in amazement.
The other passengers were also stunned by Lin Tian's answer!
Just from watching videos online for one day!
Today was his first time driving!
Isn't that incredible?
Even a veteran driver with over a decade or two of experience might not have managed to come out unscathed in today's situation.
Lin Tian could see the shock in everyone's eyes, which was mixed with some disbelief.
He wasn't surprised at this reaction.
Touching his nose, he laughed and said, "It's true! I just downloaded some videos the day before yesterday and spent the whole day yesterday watching them…"
As Lin Tian reaffirmed this, without the slightest hint of deception, the crowd's look toward Lin Tian was filled with even more shock and a bit of admiration, as if they were looking at a once-in-a-lifetime genius.
"That's just incredible!"
"There really are geniuses in this world!"
"I want to hit a wall!"
After a burst of praise, everyone began to thank Lin Tian profusely.
They had all clearly seen how the van driver reacted when the van lost control.
It was extremely poor!
If Lin Tian hadn't taken decisive action and snatched the steering wheel from the driver's hands, none of them would necessarily be standing here safely now.
Of course, no one blamed the driver!
After all, facing a runaway vehicle, no one could guarantee they could keep everyone safe; they could only do their best.
But Lin Tian did it!
This was like saving their lives, and they naturally wanted to express their gratitude!
"Brother, thank you just now!"
"Thank you so much, brother! If it weren't for you, I really don't know what would have happened!"
"Thanks, Brother! I'm Xu Haifeng, the Vice-President of the student council at our school! If you ever need anything at school, just mention my name, and it will be taken care of!"
"My name is Liu Mang! No nonsense! My mom is the deputy director of our city's health bureau, if you need anything, just call me, brother!"
In the midst of these verbose thank-yous, a few oddballs suddenly popped up!
Is this gratitude or are they showing off?
Lin Tian found it amusing but didn't mind!
He understood that they weren't trying to show off, they just felt that mere words of thanks were too hollow, and planned to repay him with real actions in the future.
So, he noted down their phone numbers with a smile.
It's good to have more friends; you never know when they might come in handy.
After expressing their thanks, everyone gradually left.
Lin Tian, though enjoying the compliments and gratitude, feeling quite proud, did not linger long, and quickly left with Bu Mengting by taxi.
"Lin Tian, did you really only watch videos online for one day?" On the taxi, Bu Mengting couldn't help but ask Lin Tian about his video learning experience.
"Of course!" Lin Tian replied with an air of pride.
"I don't believe it!" Bu Mengting pouted and huffed, "Driving isn't like studying, it requires actual hands-on practice, how could you be so good on your first try!"
"I'm a genius, and a genius is definitely not the same as an ordinary person!" In front of his girlfriend, Lin Tian never hid his awesomeness.
"Praising yourself? You really are shameless!"
"I'm just stating the facts!"
Chatting and laughing, they eventually arrived at the entrance of their residential community.
The two got out of the taxi, and Lin Tian paid the fare.
Lin Tian went to his own home, Bu Mengting went to her uncle's house.
When Lin Tian got home, he walked around and found no one was there.
"Handling that out-of-control van so smoothly today, I must have reached the required driving skills. I should find time to enroll in driving school!" Feeling bored alone, Lin Tian thought about getting his driving license.
While mumbling about enrolling in a driving school, Lin Tian suddenly felt a bit silly.
He knew Director Zhong!
This could totally be a matter for Director Zhong. It would be resolved in minutes, so why foolishly run off to enroll at a driving school?
That's just making trouble for myself!
"Director Zhong, I have something I want to ask you…" Having made up his mind, Lin Tian called Director Zhong and explained the situation.
"Oh, just handling the driving license? That's simple!" Upon hearing him out, Director Zhong immediately agreed without hesitation, cheerfully saying, "Wait a moment, I'll call Xiao Wu to get in touch with you. You just prepare the necessary documents and materials!"
After hanging up, Lin Tian secretly sighed, "Indeed, it's good to know people!"
After sorting out the driving license matter, Lin Tian went to find Bu Mengting next door.
Lin Tian peeked into her house using Clairvoyance and found it was empty.
Planning to give Bu Mengting a "surprise" and scare her a bit, Lin Tian didn't knock, quietly opened the door, and stealthily made his way in.
