The next morning, Hayden woke up when the sky was already bright. A ray of sunlight from the window shone on her face. She subconsciously raised her hand to cover the sunlight for a moment, then sat up.
There was a slight squeaking sound coming from the outside of the car.
“What are you doing?”
Hayden got out of the car and looked at Joseph who stood in front of the frontal tank of the car fiddling with a plastic pipe. She was a bit stunned.
Joseph looked at her.
“I am refueling the car.”
A white tube connected the two cars’ fuel tanks and transmitted the gas with a gobbling sound.
Hayden’s car broke down while Joseph’s car ran out of fuel, so he could only use the resources temporarily.
“Hey? What the hell.”
After Hayden understood what he was trying to do, she glanced at him, “It’s quite weird. Last time these two cars were still far away from each other, how come they are so near together now?”
Joseph looked at her again, “A shepherd passed by here in the morning and he helped me to push the car over here.”
“Really? The people here are very nice,”
“I gave him a thousand Yuan.”
Hearing his words, Hayden shut her mouth and could not help but frown.
Why did she feel that Joseph was so angry this morning? He looked like she was the one who irritated him. Did he drink the petrol?
Lowering his head, Joseph fixed the tube. He wiped his hands and straightened up his waist.
“If we drive for thirty miles, we will reach Sea View Town which you are going to. It is not too far. Have some food first, there are moon cakes and water in the car.
“I am not hungry.” Hayden shook her head. “It is only thirty miles. Let me treat you to breakfast when we reach there. It is said that the fish congee there is very delicious.”
Joseph who looked unhappy previously smiled, “Okay.”
Hayden felt a bit blur about the things that happened last night. She only knew that she did not drink any wine nor anything else, perhaps she became a bit dull-witted after being blown by the cold breeze.
She only knew that they became reconciled in bewilderment.
Since Joseph who was a president of a company already apologized to her, she would not be bothered with him.
After refueling the car, they set off along the road to Sea View Town.
When they drove for ten kilometers to the foot of the mountain, their phones finally had a signal.
“Shit, so many missed calls.”
Hayden looked at missed calls from Alayna on her phone and felt a bit nervous as she knew that she would be scolded by her for sure.
Then she saw that there were missed calls from Kevin and called him after she hesitated for a moment.
Before she thought of what she wanted to say, Kevin picked up the phone on the spot.
“Hello? Is that Hayden?
“Yes, I am…” Hayden could not recognize the voice on the other end of the phone as Kevin, as it was hoarse like a duck whose neck had been stepped on. “Kevin, we are fine now. Joseph is with me, sorry to have bothered you…”
“Did Alayna have depression before this?”
