After four years of living alone after marrying far away, he went back to his parents' home and

After Lan Yujuan pulled over, she briefly recounted what had just happened.

After listening, Chen Mo remained silent for a long time before finally letting out a long sigh of relief.

"It's good that you're alright."

After a while, Chen Mo said again, "Juan'er, share with me the location we're going to now."

"Okay, I'll send it now."

Lan Yujuan didn't ask any further questions and immediately shared the location of the old lady's neighborhood with Chen Mo.

After hanging up the phone, Lan Yujuan gradually came to her senses and felt a wave of fear as she thought about what had just happened.

Lan Yujuan rarely traveled the road that took Lan Qingqing home, and she wasn't very familiar with the road conditions.

If she hadn't seen the old lady while stuck in traffic, and hadn't taken pity on her and gotten out of her car to persuade the old lady to hitch a ride and take another route, she would have been different.

Based on the travel time, she should be stuck in the underpass right now, unable to move forward or backward.

More importantly, the signal in that underground passage was already poor, and then there was a downpour...

"Little girl, what's wrong?"

The old lady sitting behind her noticed that something was wrong with her expression and quickly asked.

"Did you get caught in the rain? Are you feeling unwell?"

Lan Yujuan suddenly came to her senses and quickly said with a smile:

"Auntie, don't worry, I'm fine!"

"I just got a call from my husband. He said the road I was going to take was blocked by traffic and flooded, and it was very dangerous."

"Fortunately, we changed our route at the last minute."

The old lady had only asked casually, but when Lan Yujuan mentioned the underpass, her brows furrowed instantly, and she said nervously:

"Oh dear, young lady, you're not very familiar with this area, are you?"

"Let me tell you, you absolutely must not use that underpass at the intersection on a rainy day. You must avoid it!"

"Every time there's a heavy rainstorm, that underpass floods and accidents happen. Sometimes cars get submerged, and in severe cases, people have even drowned!"

Lan Yujuan shuddered after hearing this.

Seeing this, the elderly woman sitting behind quickly unfolded the small blanket beside her and draped it over Lan Yujuan's shoulders, saying with concern:

"You silly child, you're so concerned about others that you've forgotten about yourself!"

Lan Yujuan felt a warmth in her heart, smiled, tightened the blanket draped over her shoulders, and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Auntie!"

"Please be seated, shall we continue our journey?"

The old lady nodded, quickly sat down, and fastened her seatbelt.

About 45 minutes later, Lan Yujuan arrived at her destination and successfully delivered the old lady to the entrance of her residential community.

This place is relatively remote, a semi-rural area. The buildings in the community are new, but they are quite close together, and the greenery doesn't look very green.

"Auntie, look, is this your residential compound?" Lan Yujuan stopped in a safe spot and pointed out the window towards the entrance of the compound.

The old lady glanced at it, then smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, this is it!"

After saying that, he was about to change into his wet shoes and get out of the car.

Lan Yujuan quickly handed over her umbrella, saying, "Auntie, this umbrella is for you!"

The old lady tried to decline, saying, "No, no, it's raining, you'll need this umbrella later!"

As she spoke, the old lady took out a hundred-yuan bill from her canvas bag, stuffed it into Lan Yujuan's hand, and rushed off the bus.

Seeing this, Lan Yujuan quickly opened her umbrella, stuffed the hundred yuan into her pocket, and chased after him all the way to the guardhouse.

"Auntie, I'm just giving you a ride because it's on my way, you don't need to pay!"

As Lan Yujuan spoke, she took out the hundred yuan from her pocket, insisting on returning it no matter what.

The old lady insisted on giving it to him, but he refused with a stern face:

"Does your car run on gas for free? Do you wash it for free?"

"On a rainy day like this, even if I wanted to take a taxi home, I couldn't get one!"

"The fact that you brought me back shows you have a kind heart!"

"What I'm entitled to, I must give!"

"What, you don't think a hundred dollars is too little, do you?"

As the old woman spoke, she reached into her canvas bag to take out more money, "If you think it's not enough, I'll give you another hundred!"

Seeing that the other party refused to accept the money, Lan Yujuan remembered what the old lady had done earlier and immediately came up with a plan:

"Auntie, you're soaked to the bone. Don't catch a cold, go home quickly!"

After saying that, he stuffed the hundred yuan in his hand into the old lady's arms, put down the umbrella, and ran away.

The old lady got anxious and tried to chase after her with the money, but the hundred-yuan note fell to the ground. When she bent down to pick it up, she discovered that Lan Yujuan had accidentally stuffed her business card from her pocket into her hand.

"A secluded cafe halfway up the mountain? What kind of place is that...?"

"Hey, little girl! Don't go yet!"

When the old lady finally saw the business card clearly and looked up to continue chasing after Lan Yujuan, she found that Lan Yujuan had already driven away and turned around.

The security guard in the guardhouse next door peeked out and said with a grin:

"Grandma Wang, please listen to me, go home first, take a hot shower, and change into clean clothes!"

"Maybe this business card belongs to the shop that girl just opened."

"If you want to find her, just wait until the rain stops, and go to the address on her business card."

The old lady thought for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, that's true!"

Then, she carefully put away the hundred-yuan bill and the business card, picked up the umbrella from the ground, shook her head and sighed:

"Oh, what a wonderful girl, it's a pity she's married..."

Lan Yujuan, who had just gotten married, was about to drive onto the main road when she saw a familiar car parked on the side of the road with its hazard lights on.

She almost thought she was seeing things.

Then my phone suddenly vibrated; Chen Mo was calling.

"I'm right in front of you, pull over."

Just as Lan Yujuan was about to do as instructed, she saw Chen Mo, carrying a coat and holding an umbrella, get out of the back seat of the car in front and walk straight toward the driver's seat.

"Visibility is poor on rainy days."

"You sit next to me, I'll drive!"

Chen Mo held up the umbrella, let Lan Yujuan sit next to him, gave her his clean coat, and then returned to the driver's seat.

Looking at his earnest expression, Lan Yujuan felt a warmth in her heart.

"You came all this way to pick me up?" Lan Yujuan took out two tissues and wiped the rain splashing on Chen Mo's face.

Chen Mo turned to look at her and said softly:

"I was terrified when I found out the underpass was flooded; how could I possibly stay there?"

"Thankfully, you're alright today..."

As Chen Mo drove onto the main road, he said, "Oh, right, there's a thermos in my coat pocket with ginger soup in it. Drink some to warm yourself up."

Lan Yujuan smiled slightly and nodded, "Okay."

About half an hour later, after circling around the overpass for a short while, the two finally arrived home.

After arriving home, I took a shower, leaned back on the sofa, and just as I turned on my phone, I saw a local trending news report showing videos and news of flooded underpasses, vehicles and people trapped, and emergency rescue operations underway.

"I almost, I was so close to making the news." Lan Yujuan looked at the news article, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

Chen Mo sat down next to her, put his arm around her, smelled the fragrance of her hair, and said with a reassuring expression:

Good deeds will be rewarded!

"It seems we should do more good deeds; maybe that's God giving us a chance to save ourselves in danger."

Just as Lan Yujuan was about to put down her phone, it rang again.

As soon as she answered the call, Lan Qingqing's anxious voice came from the other end:

"Sis, are you home yet?"

"I just saw on the news that a section of the road was flooded. Are you alright?"

Lan Yujuan quickly explained with a smile:

"Don't worry, I'm home safely!"

"The route was changed at the last minute, so I didn't take that road home."

On the other end of the phone, Lan Qingqing also breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good! It's good that you're alright!"

This sudden torrential rain flooded many parts of the city.

With the café closed for two days, Lan Yujuan took advantage of the break to focus on her creative work at home, making rapid progress.

Until the rain stopped and the water level gradually dropped, the coffee shop reopened for business.
