"Alright, just try to get there as fast as you can." Mo Ran had no choice but to give up since hailing another taxi

was too late now.

"Don’t worry, I'll make sure to get you there as quickly as possible," the driver confidently assured her.

Mo Ran glanced at him and said nothing more.

Now, all she could do was pray to make it on time.

Unfortunately, fate had other plans.

As the car entered the highway, it suddenly showed signs of stalling. The driver quickly pulled over to the side,

and the car would not start at all.

"Damn, looks like we ran out of gas," the driver frowned.

"Out of gas!" Mo Ran exclaimed in shock, "How can we run out of gas at a tlike this!"

This was the inner ring highway; where could she possibly go to hail a taxi!

"Letsee if there's any reserve fuel." The driver got out of the car and leisurely opened the trunk to search

through it.

Mo Ran also got out, anxiously asking, "Do you have any fuel?"

"No, | forgot to prepare sreserve fuel," the driver said innocently.

"How could you..." Mo Ran was at a loss for words, she helplessly gave him a glance and hurriedly began to wave

down other cars.

However, on the highway, where picking up passengers was not permitted, taxi drivers simply did not dare to

stop.

As tticked by, Mo Ran was so anxious she was about to cry.

There was no other way; she had to explain the situation to Gu Yixuan.

She dialed his number, and it was immediately picked up on the other end.

"Have you arrived?" Gu Yixuan immediately asked.

A wave of disappointment washed over Mo Ran, "I haven't... Gu Yixuan, there’s something | need to tell you."

"Not arrived? Where are you now? I'll cto pick you up." The man’s eyebrows were tightly knit, his tone

tense.

"I'm on the highway to the Civil Affairs Bureau now. The taxi ran out of gas, and | can’t find another car. What

should | do?"

"You're just on your way now? What exactly have you been busy with, and why are you only coming now?!"

Mo Ran bit her lip, trying to calm herself down, "Actually, | was at the hospital just now. Mr. Yuan had an allergic

reaction to shrimp while dining withand was rushed to the hospital, so | had to wait there until he was out of

danger before leaving. Believe me, | had calculated the time, and it should have been enough to make it, but

who knew the taxi would run out of gas on the road."

Mo Ran tried earnestly to explain, but Gu Yixuan wasn't listening to a word.

"So you mean to say, you haven't made it until now because you were waiting with that Mr. Yuan?" he asked

expressionlessly, his voice devoid of warmth.
