Late at night, the drizzle gently tapped against the window frame, gently waking Ye Wanqing from her dream.

There was still no sign of dawn in the sky, and she gently pressed the switch on the bedside, and the light in the room instantly dispelled the darkness around her.

Pulling open a corner of the curtain, I saw a hazy rain curtain outside, which was in stark contrast to the sunny weather forecast for the upcoming Qingming Festival.

Ye Wanqing hadn't stepped into the house for a long time, and the refrigerator was empty, just like her slightly empty heart at the moment.

At six forty in the morning, the sky was still immersed in the embrace of night. She decided to go out for breakfast and buy some supplies for this empty little nest.

The accident a few years ago caused her car to stay in the repair shop for a long time, and she finally had to reluctantly give it away and gave it to someone else.

Now, the only thing left in the garage was the sports car, but it seemed a little out of place on such a rainy day. Ye Wanqing thought for a moment and decided it would be more practical to call a taxi.

The night was as dark as ink. She was wearing a simple yet elegant white dress, holding an exquisite umbrella, standing quietly on the threshold of the villa. There was only the whisper of wind and rain around her, making it seem particularly peaceful.

The taxi approached quickly. The driver looked out the window and noticed the beautiful woman. He couldn't help but blurt out, "Miss, are you a celebrity?"

Ye Wanqing smiled calmly and shook her head, "No."

The driver sighed regretfully, "Ah, it's such a shame she's not a star!"

She responded with a smile, "Thank you for the compliment."

Seeing that she had a gentle temperament, the driver started talking. Ye Wanqing also occasionally interjected a few words, and the atmosphere in the car was warm and harmonious.

About ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of a breakfast shop. The driver hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Ye Wanqing: "Miss, can we exchange contact information? Don't get me wrong, I'm a family man with children. I just retired and I drive a taxi purely for fun."

"Actually, I have a cousin who's also from Beijing. He's an executive at a well-known company, and he's in his thirties and still single. His elders are all university professors, and they're very anxious about his marriage, so they asked me to help keep an eye out for a suitable girl."

Although the driver is middle-aged, his speech and behavior reveal an extraordinary temperament.

Ye Wanqing understood his good intentions, but she had no interest in this kind of sudden "matchmaking": "I'm really sorry, I don't have any plans in this regard at the moment."

The driver was slightly embarrassed after hearing this. "Ah, I'm sorry for being so rude. How about this? I'll waive the fare this time. This is my apology for being so rude."

"It's okay, you're welcome."

Ye Wanqing gently opened the door and stepped into the rain, leaving behind an elegant figure. The driver watched her leave, feeling a pity in his heart, thinking that his cousin had missed a good opportunity.

At this time, the nearby shopping malls have not yet opened to welcome customers, and only the 24-hour convenience store on the corner of the street is emitting warm lights.

Ye Wanqing folded her umbrella and walked into the store. It was the time when the employees changed shifts, so she waited patiently for a few minutes.

Until half past seven, the sky gradually turned pale. Ye Wanqing took a short rest in the corner of the convenience store and then stepped into the rain again.

It was rush hour and the bus stop was crowded. She waited patiently for three No. 1 buses and finally got on.

Not having a private car is indeed inconvenient. Ye Wanqing secretly decided to buy a new car today.

When she arrived at the car dealership, the door was still closed. She put away her umbrella, stood under the eaves, took out her cell phone from her bag, and sent a message to her friend Qin Zhuyu, asking if she was free to have lunch together at noon.

Qin Zhuyu replied quickly and agreed happily. At the same time, the door of the car dealership opened.

In the early morning of a car dealership, a beautiful woman stood at the door, startling the salesperson who opened the door: "Miss, are you here to apply for a job?"

Ye Wanqing tilted her head slightly, a faint smile on her lips, "No, I came here to look at the car."

The salesperson quickly welcomed her into the store. "Miss, what's your name?"

"Your surname is Ye."

"Ms. Ye, do you have a car model in mind, or what is your approximate budget for buying a car?"

"I want to take a look at the BMW X5." Ye Wanqing had already made up her mind and had done some research in the convenience store before.

When the salesperson heard this, he immediately became more enthusiastic: "Okay, Miss Ye, this way please!"

Ye Wanqing followed the salesperson to carefully inspect the car. After some consideration, she asked for a test drive. "Of course!" the salesperson readily agreed.

Ye Wanqing has always been decisive when shopping, including when buying a car.

After a half-hour test drive, she returned to the store without hesitation and completed the purchase. Seeing her willingness to do so, the salesperson secured a number of extra gifts for her as a token of his gratitude.

"Thank you for your cooperation."

With a crisp "beep" from the card reader, the sensor at the dealership's door sounded a warm reminder of "Welcome again" in a timely manner.

At this moment, a familiar voice penetrated the rain curtain, intertwining with the sound of the sensor: "Mom, I really like that sports car, can you buy it for me?"

It was Lin Yanrong. Beside her, Lin Shuhuai stood aside, his eyes accidentally meeting Ye Wanqing's. "Miss Ye, what a coincidence."

Ye Wanqing responded to this unexpected surprise with a smile, and Lin Yanrong also greeted her obediently: "Hello, Miss Ye."

"Hello, Mrs. Lin, Miss Lin." Ye Wanqing's voice was soft.

"I heard that your leg injury has healed?" Lin Shuhuai's eyes fell on Ye Wanqing's left leg with some concern.

"Yes, thanks to the care of Mrs. Lin, I have fully recovered now." Ye Wanqing replied softly.

The salesperson handed her the car keys and a pile of documents at the right time. Ye Wanqing carefully put them away, picked up the car keys, and said goodbye to Lin Shuhuai and his daughter: "I'm leaving first, Mrs. Lin, Miss Lin."

Lin Shuhuai watched Ye Wanqing's back gradually walk away. He seemed to have something to say, but he hesitated for a moment and finally called her: "Miss Ye, please stay."

"Mrs. Lin, is there anything wrong?" Ye Wanqing turned around with a questioning look in her eyes.

"Lin Xuan... Has he contacted you recently?" There was a hint of imperceptible worry in Lin Shuhuai's voice. Obviously, Lin Xuan's recent condition made her very worried.

Ye Wanqing shook her head slightly, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes: "Boss Lin and I haven't been in touch for a while."

Hearing this, Lin Shuhuai sighed softly: "I'm being abrupt."

"It's okay. How is Mrs. Lin these days? It rains a lot. Has her headache recurred?" Ye Wanqing asked with concern, her tone sounding sincere.

"Fortunately, thanks to your concern, the old lady has been in good health recently, but she only mentions you occasionally. If it is convenient for you, I hope you can go and see her." There was some anticipation in Lin Shuhuai's voice.

Ye Wanqing smiled slightly, nodded in agreement, then said goodbye to Lin Shuhuai and his daughter again and drove away.

After completing all the formalities, it was already approaching noon. Ye Wanqing decided to drive directly to Qin Zhuyu's company, intending to have lunch with her before her lunch break.

When Qin Zhuyu saw Ye Wanqing, her face was filled with joy of reunion. During lunch, the two had a great chat, and Qin Zhuyu even confessed to Ye Wanqing how much she missed her during this period.

In the afternoon, Qin Zhuyu had an interview assignment, so Ye Wanqing sent her back to the company. Afterwards, Ye Wanqing drove to the mall and bought some fresh fruits and vegetables, intending to add some food to her little nest.

When Ye Wanqing drove the new car slowly back to the villa, a black Maybach was quietly parked on one side of the villa door.

Ye Wanqing slowly parked the car, lowered the window, and made eye contact with the sharply defined man inside. "Lin Xuan, why are you here?"

The rain was still falling, and the cold wind mixed with rain blew into the car, making Ye Wanqing shiver.

"The old lady wants to see you." Lin Xuan's voice was low and firm, without the slightest hesitation.

Ye Wanqing frowned slightly. She had just met Lin Shuhuai at the car dealership. She naturally understood that the old lady missed her, but Lin Xuan's appearance surprised her a little.

"I'll go see her in a few days." Ye Wanqing's voice was firm.

"Yeah." Lin Xuan responded simply and drove slowly past her, leaving behind a series of wheel sounds that gradually faded away.

Ye Wanqing looked through the windshield and watched the Maybach gradually disappear in the rain, and ripples began to form in her heart.

Why did Lin Xuan come to tell her this in person?
