On this side, Shu Pan woke up early, picked up her luggage, and quietly opened the door, stepping out of the living room, She glanced around, sighed, and realized that there might never be another chance for her to step into this place again. Reluctantly, she placed the keys on the coffee table.

Then, she quietly opened the door and took the elevator down to the ground floor. She dragged her suitcase and slowly walked outside the residential area.

When she reached the entrance of the residential area, the friendly security guard smiled at her, “Madam, you’re leaving so early?”

“Yeah,” Shu Pan mustered a smile in response.

The security guard, a young man, opened the gate for her and said, “You’re leaving quite early today. It’s not easy to catch a cab at this hour. Why don’t you let Mr. Gu give you a ride?”

“He’s still asleep, and I have something to do,” Shu Pan absentmindedly responded, bidding farewell to the guard.

Indeed, it was too early. There were hardly any people on the road, and there was no sign of any cars.

Shu Pan sighed helplessly, walking down the road with her head down.

Suddenly, there was a screech, and Shu Pan heard the sound of tires on the road. A black car stopped next to her, and a smiling face appeared from inside, his peach blossom eyes unforgettable.

“Ms. Shu, why are you here? Where are you taking your luggage?” Shu Pan recognized him as Wen Chi from the moment he spoke.

“Why are you here?” Shu Pan asked him in return. Unlucky things happened every year, but this year, there were especially many. She met someone who knew her in such a miserable appearance.

I live nearby. I was on night duty last night and now I’m going home,” Wen Chi explained.

“Where are you going? It’s hard to find a car now. Let me give you a ride,” Wen Chi offered.

“Well… there’s no need, Dr. Wen. Please go back and rest. I can wait a bit longer,” Shu Pan replied, hearing that he had worked a night shift, she didn’t want to trouble him, and she wasn’t familiar with him either.

“Call me Wen Chi, and I’ll call you Shu Pan. How about that? Meeting each other is fate. Get in the car, don’t let it delay your trip,” Wen Chi said as he got out of the car and opened the trunk, lifting Shu Pan’s suitcase into the car.

Shu Pan was stunned, then realized it didn’t matter and opened the car door to get in.

“So early, on a business trip?” Wen Chi steered the wheel, and the car smoothly moved forward.

“Where’s your hometown?” Wen Chi took the opportunity to ask.

“Lotus Town. It’s not far from here. It’s a three-hour drive.”

“Just hearing the name makes me think it must be a beautiful place. I’ll visit next time I have time off. Will you welcome me?” Wen Chi smiled and said, not knowing why, it just came out naturally.

Seeing her downcast tone and weakened speech, he didn’t press on about what had happened.

“Sure, next time you come, I’ll be your tour guide.” Feeling indebted to him today, she readily agreed upon hearing his suggestion.

At a red light, Wen Chi handed her his phone. Shu Pan was puzzled, not understanding what he meant.

“Enter your phone number so that you can be my tour guide later, ” Shu Pan realized after a moment.

Indeed, she was a divorced pregnant woman. Her intelligence and memory weren’t on the same level as an ordinary person’s.

Self-mockingly, she put her hand to her forehead, took the phone, lowered her head, and diligently entered the eleven-digit number.

The morning sunlight shone on her face, a bit pale, but her facial features were like a painting. Her brows and eyes were delicate, and her features were gentle. Her pair of eyes glittered like stars in the dawn sky, as if countless fragments of starlight were mixed in, shining brightly. Her long eyelashes playfully blinked, like a small fan.

Wen Chi was a bit dumbfounded. Even someone who was used to seeing various beautiful women like him was astonished for a moment. Her beauty wasn’t flashy or arrogant. It was simply elegant. He inexplicably felt a trace of unusual sentiment in his heart.

“Dr. Wen, what’s the matter?” Shu Pan called out, seeing him lost in thought.

“It’s nothing, just thinking about something,” Wen Chi coughed lightly, covering up his moment of distraction.

“You can stop right here. I’ll get out and walk in. It’s hard to find parking inside.” The car was about to reach the station, so Shu Pan spoke up.

“Alright, I’ll pull over. Take care,” Wen Chi said, pulling over at the side of the road.

“Okay, thank you, Dr. Wen.” With that, Shu Pan got out of the car, carrying her luggage, waved at Wen Chi, and turned to leave.

Wen Chi stared at her receding figure for quite a while, lost in thought..
