I glanced at the time; it was only around 9:40.
Lin Anshu couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect that if there's no traffic, it would be so quick to get to Ancheng by taking the highway."
Ji Chuan, who was playing games on his phone in the passenger seat, immediately said upon hearing this, "We're here?"
"Lin Anshu, after we deliver the vegetables, shall we take a stroll around Ancheng?"
"Ah, big city, I, Hu Hansan, have finally returned!"
"Let's finish delivering the food first." Lin Anshu neither agreed nor refused outright.
"Stop talking, just finish delivering the groceries and go shopping. I'll treat you to something delicious later!" Ji Chuan said directly.
"Then I'll think about it."
"What's there to think about? Don't you girls all love shopping?"
"The sun is shining brightly today, the sky is clear and the air is crisp, and I, this handsome guy, am accompanying you shopping. How great is that!" Ji Chuan continued to brainwash you.
Lin Anshu glanced at him casually.
Believe it or not, this guy knew he was going into town today, so he changed back into his expensive clothes and shoes.
Even her hair was styled with a hairdryer after breakfast.
Now that I look at her now, she really does have quite a bit of beauty.
She has the kind of looks and demeanor that would get people asking for her WeChat just by walking down the street.
"It's not impossible, but you know I'm very busy."
"If I spend an extra half day in Ancheng today, it means I'll be even busier tomorrow, just with all those packages that need to be mailed out..."
"I'll help you," Ji Chuan said, waving his hand.
“Alright, after delivering the groceries, I’ll show you around Ancheng~” Lin Anshu immediately said.
After all, she had worked in Ancheng before, so she was more familiar with Ancheng than Ji Chuan, who was from the capital.
"Okay, it's a deal!"
After following the navigation for almost half the distance, Lin Anshu discovered...
A long stretch of road ahead was under temporary traffic control.
To get to her destination, she would have to take a detour from other places.
"Why were they suddenly put under control?"
"If we take a detour, where would we go?"
After muttering a couple of things, Lin Anshu decided to park the car on the side of the road and get out to ask a passerby.
After all, the road restrictions are only temporary, and the navigation system won't remind you of that.
"You wait in the car, I'll go ask someone."
As soon as the car stopped, Ji Chuan got out.
Not long after, he returned carrying two bottles of Gatorade.
He handed Lin Anshu a bottle of Gatorade with the cap loosened as he spoke.
"I asked, and there's a marathon here at 2 PM, so the road is temporarily closed. It will be open again after the race."
"The specific control period is from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM."
"If you want to get to Jiandong Street, you have to make a U-turn and go through the Second Ring Road..."
After saying that, Ji Chuan unscrewed the bottle of Gatorade in his hand and took a few gulps.
Then, he suddenly spoke up: "Lin Anshu, aren't you supposed to be a super fast runner?"
"The competition doesn't start until 2 PM, why don't you go and register?"
"Stop joking! Registration for these kinds of competitions should close a month or two in advance. Have you ever seen anyone register just hours before the competition starts?"
"Wait a minute, let me search." Ji Chuan quickly screwed the bottle cap back on, then took out his phone and started typing rapidly.
"Hey? Lin Anshu, look, the first place winner is a Geely car!"
"Second place prize money, third place prize money."
"Wow, who is this organizer? They're incredibly generous!"
"If I had your skills, I'd charge in blindfolded!"
Not to mention Ji Chuan, even Lin Anshu couldn't help but feel tempted when she heard that the first place prize was a car.
Just a few days ago, she was thinking of buying her dad a car...
"Has the registration deadline passed?"
"Wait a moment, let me take a look."
"Oh, it's definitely over. Ugh, so annoying."
"..." Lin Anshu.
"Wait, Lin Anshu, I think I've seen a special recruitment notice..."
"Um?"
Ten minutes later, Lin Anshu and Ji Chuan had a complete understanding of the details of this so-called special recruitment information.
Logically speaking, the registration period for this kind of marathon should have ended long ago.
However, as everyone knows, in this kind of competition, the endurance of Chinese people is far inferior to that of people from Southeast Asian countries.
In any marathon like this, the top spots are invariably taken by Black runners.
Among those who registered for the marathon this year, at least twenty were from Southeast Asia.
Three or five of them were Black men who had won top three places in marathons several times.
The organizers, being patriots, especially hope that a Chinese person can finish in the top three in this year's marathon.
Therefore, we have been encouraging students from sports colleges and Chinese people with talent in long-distance running to participate in this competition.
Because the students from Anjo's renowned sports academy had just returned from a competition in Kyoto.
To allow them to participate, the organizers opened a final online registration channel before the competition.
Even the prizes and bonuses were just increased today.
The previous first place winner received 30,000 yuan, the second place winner received 20,000 yuan, and the third place winner received 10,000 yuan.
The deadline for registration is 10:00 AM.
Lin Anshu and Ji Chuan couldn't help but glance at the time on their phones.
It is 9:58 a.m.
"Lin Anshu, hurry up and sign up!"
"Cute..."
"I'll deliver it for you, you go and participate in the competition!"
"Okay!" Lin Anshu hesitated for two seconds before nodding.
