Chapter 141 - When We Were Young and Reckless (1) (2/2)

Furthermore, the fact that his phone number always rang meant that his phone had not run out of battery.

As she continued to call him, she flagged down a cab and asked the cab driver a question that he found extremely strange, ”Could you randomly drive me around this cafe and stop at any place which can be reached from the cafe in exactly ten minutes?”

She worriedly stared through the car window. However, she did not see any car accidents along the road.

She got even more worried.

In the end, she went directly to the nearest police station and asked if any car accidents had happened nearby.

The answer she received was as follows, ”There was a tailgating accident. However, they have settled their respective car insurance issues, so they left the scene.”

She bit her lip and silently stared outside the cafe.

It was already dark here in Beijing, and cars drove to and fro on the road.

At this moment, her cell phone finally began to ring.
