The trip from the shooting location to the city took roughly forty minutes by car.

Ning Ran felt slightly tired. She rarely spoke while sitting inside Huang Zichao's car.

On the other hand, Huang Zichao was in an excellent mood. He bobbed his head in time to the music and occasionally hummed.

Ning Ran kept quiet. She closed her eyes to rest and left Huang Zichao to his own devices.

Eventually, she fell asleep. When Huang Zichao woke her up, they were already in the city.

“Are you exhausted? If you are, I can send you home to rest.” Huang Zichao felt somewhat disappointed.

“It's nothing. I'm feeling much better now. I wasn't exhausted as well. It's just that the music you played in the car was too soothing. I felt relaxed and fell asleep because of it.” Ning Ran was embarrassed.

“Your sleeping face is quite attractive.”

Ning Ran's face warmed. “Sorry about that.”

“It's fine. If you aren't tired, why don't we have a few drinks?”

“Okay.”

The bar Huang Zichao chose was not the noisy sort. It also did not broadcast loud music. Instead, a young girl with an acoustic guitar was singing a folk ballad inside.

Ning Ran immediately took a liking to the place the moment she stepped inside.

Ever since she returned to the country, she had been embroiled in various inexplicable situations. She was mentally fatigued.

The life-and-death situation she encountered some time ago continued to plague her dreams.

Feeling relaxed upon arriving inside, she truly liked the atmosphere.

Apart from Huang Zichao, there was no one here who knew her. Everyone was a stranger. There was no need to keep her guard up as there was no beneficial relationship that needed to be made or maintained.

Huang Zichao ordered a platter of fruits, some snacks, and fruit beer.

“The alcohol concentration in this is very low. You won't get drunk so don't worry.” Huang Zichao laughed.

“Thanks.” Ning Ran smiled.
