Yuchen and Elena sat side by side in the back seat of the car, the quiet hum of the engine filling the silence. The driver up front navigated the streets on their way to the airport, leaving the two passengers in a world of their own.
Elena, engrossed in her tablet, was busily working. She had tasks to finish, and even this car ride couldn't be spared from her professional obligations. Yuchen, on the other hand, sat in silence, reclining comfortably in his seat, making the journey a quiet one.
Despite the seemingly calm ambiance, Yuchen's phone vibrated multiple times, indicating incoming messages. Elena, though focused on her work, couldn't help but notice the persistent alerts.
"It seems like you're receiving a lot of messages. Aren't you going to respond?" Elena asked, her attention still fixed on her tablet.
Although Elena was currently immersed in her work, it didn't mean she was oblivious to the vibrations and even a ring from Yuchen's cellphone.
