As midnight approached, two people drove to the hospital. Neon lights flickered along the way, and the night breeze brought a lingering coolness through the car window, brushing the cheeks of those inside the vehicle. A drizzle began to fall midway, seemingly due to a traffic accident ahead, causing Gao Chuan and Jiang An to be stuck on the overpass.
There was no communication between the two during the journey. The atmosphere in the car was heavy, with only the windshield wipers making a "thunking" sound as they swung back and forth. Gao Chuan, holding the steering wheel, had a grave expression on his face, his brows furrowed.
Jiang An had never seen the always calm and composed man show such emotion. In her memory, Dr. Gao was always unflappable, no matter what happened. She even felt that the Dr. Gao she saw at this moment was the truly authentic one.
