After a long while, Xuan Wen pushed an electric bike out from behind the trees at a highway fork, patting the rear seat: "Hurry up!"
"I didn't expect you to send me home like this," Gao Ming said, mounting the bike and gripping the backrest tightly. "Do people from the Shadow World also ride electric bikes?"
"The road was blocked, a car couldn't get through." Xuan Wen spat out the rainwater in her mouth and stared at Gao Ming. "Forget it, you give me the raincoat and then crawl in back."
"Fine, I'll do as you say."
Gao Ming, having switched raincoats, lifted the rear flap of the coat like a child, covering his head.
