Beep! Beep! Beep!

At this moment, Huai South Middle Road was completely blocked, and the sound of horns rose and fell.

"It was fine when I came through here half an hour ago. Why is it so congested now?"

As he spoke, the taxi driver impatiently honked twice.

In the back seat, the girl dozing off was woken up by the commotion. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly and she slowly opened her eyes.

Nan Ge had just woken up and was still a little confused.

When she came back to her senses, she reached out and pushed her hair away. "Did something happen up ahead?"

Hearing this, the driver automatically looked up at the rearview mirror. "There's suddenly a traffic jam, so there must be an accident in front."

Nan Ge was about to say something when her phone vibrated on her lap. There were a few messages on WeChat.

Yu: [Miss, where are you?]

[You said you were leaving half an hour ago. Why aren't you here yet? Where on earth are you? Will I see you tonight?]

[Isn't it about time you changed your lousy Lamborghini? It's no different from a tractor now.]

[Hey, did you see the photo on my Moments? I just got the latest model. Isn't it cool? Hehehe. Are you jealous?]

[It's been two years and you still haven't gotten a new car. Miss Nan, are you broke or something?]

[...]

[Hey, say something! Where are you? Where are you with your tractor?]

[Say something, will you? Is the signal in the tractor bad?]

Looking at the sarcasm spewing from the screen, Nan Ge was so angry that she woke up. She gritted her teeth and replied.

[I won't even take a second look at your lousy car even if you give it to me for free! It's so ugly! You have a such horrible taste!]

[Also, my brother has promised to get me a new car during the new year!]

[Are you serious?]

[That goes without saying.]

[Okay, so where have you reached with your tractor now?]

Nan Ge took a deep breath and typed hard. [My car was sent for maintenance. I took a taxi here, and it's still stuck on the road.]

Yu sent a string of ellipses and said: [Is the evening rush hour in Huai City so terrible these days? A couple of years ago, it wasn't so bad.]

Yu was her childhood friend. Neither of them was local to Huai City, and they were from a neighboring city. She was studying at Huai University, and Yu happened to come to a new bar here to celebrate his birthday today.

[It's not the evening rush hour. I think there was an accident.]

[Fine.]

After a few seconds, she received another message.

[Oh right, it's raining outside. Did you bring an umbrella? Do you need me to pick you up at the entrance of the bar later?]

Hm? Was it raining?

Nan Ge's gaze shifted from the phone screen to the window. Only then did she realize that the window was blurry.

In early January, it suddenly rained in Huai City.

However, from the looks of it, the rain was not heavy. It pattered on the car window. Looking out of the car, the raindrops slanted, adding a hazy beauty to the bustling night scenery of Huai City.
