Ning Lang picked up her phone and glanced at it.

Sheng Xuan quickly noticed that her fingertips paused when she swiped to "answer".

Seeing this, his mood improved without him even realizing it, and he even started humming along to the music playing on the radio.

Ning Lang gave a soft "Hello?" and then spoke in a polite and gentle voice: "Thank you for your support, Senior Jiang. It's a pity I have to leave early. I'll treat you to a meal next time."

Jiang Lirong seemed to say something else, and Ning Lang couldn't help but glance at Sheng Xuan before quickly looking away.

"...Yes, I've been a bit busy lately, so I asked him to pick me up and drop me off."

Sheng Xuan stopped humming and secretly rolled her eyes.

Damn it! What business is it of yours, Jiang Lirong!

Ning Lang quickly changed the subject, asking, "Senior, you'll be going to the auction tomorrow, right? Hmm... I happened to get two tickets, so I'll be going to check it out too. Okay, see you then. You go ahead and have your meal, goodbye."

She then hung up the phone, pressed the lock button, and put the phone aside.

She was probably tired; she closed her eyes and leaned back in her seat.

The car continued driving towards the old town where the pet hospital was located.

A little while later, Sheng Xuan drove the car to the side of the road, adjusted her seat, and turned up the car's heater.

Ning Lang wasn't asleep; he just twitched his fingertips slightly.

The car resumed gliding, its speed decreased, and it became more stable.

In a daze, Ning Lang remembered that night.

Inside the cramped blue Lamborghini, he angrily bent down to pick up the keys, and she inadvertently turned her head—their lips suddenly pressed together!

He was stunned.

She was stunned.

Until she suddenly came to her senses, she pushed him away!

Both of them blushed deeply and remained silent, awkwardly sitting there for a long time. Only the cheerful music of "Pigsy Carrying His Bride" played in the carriage, carrying a mocking and sarcastic tone, making the awkwardness even more intense...

Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.

Sheng Xuan stopped the car and glanced at the dimly lit pet hospital.

Unlike humans, the animals don't get addicted to their phones or stay up late; they go to bed early and are very quiet.

Sheng Xuan felt the person beside her breathing evenly and shallowly, knowing that she was fast asleep.

Huh? She looks so tired? Could it be because she didn't sleep well during her afternoon nap, as she mentioned?

She always appeared energetic, dignified, and composed, except for that time she had appendicitis...

How could low blood sugar turn a perfectly healthy person into this state?

Is that possible?

Sheng Xuan frowned, took out her phone, quickly unlocked it, opened the browser, and typed in the words "What are the symptoms of severe hypoglycemia? How should it be treated?"

"Whoosh—" Tens of thousands of related links appeared all at once.

Sheng Xuan browsed through them carefully, reading one after another.

Suddenly, a loud "Horn!" rang out from not far away!

Ning Lang, who was standing next to him, was startled and woke up in a panic!

Sheng Xuan was also startled and quickly turned off her phone, throwing it into her pocket and looking around nervously.

"Honking the horn is free?! Why don't the traffic police fine him tens of millions to donate to charity?!"

Then, he glanced at his bright, handsome face.

"Alright, saves me the trouble of waking you up! We're here! Get off the bus! Green can't wait any longer!"

Ning Lang rubbed his face, quickly regaining his senses, and grabbed his phone to put it in his coat pocket.

She straightened up, and her light gray sweater pulled up, revealing a loose section of dark fabric around her lower abdomen.

She frowned abruptly, quickly pulled the bag back, and glanced nervously at the driver's seat on the left. Seeing that Sheng Xuan had already turned around and gotten out of the car, she quickly calmly pushed open the door and got out as well.
