"Sorry, passengers, our bus is currently experiencing some problems and cannot continue on the scheduled route. Please disembark at this stop and take the next bus,"
The bus driver's announcement caused an uproar inside the vehicle.
"I'm already running late for work, and now I have to wait again!"
"What exactly is wrong with the bus? It looks fine."
"Is it easy to wait for a bus during rush hour?"
Although everyone complained, they still got off the bus one by one, and Xia Lu was among them.
Standing at the bus stop, she hoisted her bag with force. There had been no seats on the bus, and carrying it for so long made her laptop feel exceptionally heavy.
According to the prompt on her phone app, the next bus would arrive in ten minutes, and it was already 8:30 am. She didn't know if she could make it to the office by 9 am.
