The gentle rhythm of light music drifted into the night air through the car window.
The moonlight was enchanting, the snow soft.
The city's hustle and bustle was left behind.
Everything around seemed to slow down with the falling snowflakes.
Looking back, the girl in the driver's seat had bright, starry eyes, occasionally humming a few notes, feeling content and free.
Everything seemed so dreamlike and beautiful.
It was as if she was the fairy who led him out of the black forest.
He Sichen's lips curved into a smile, and he didn't even know when he fell asleep.
When he woke up again, it was Ye Wan shaking him awake forcefully.
"He Sichen, He Sichen..."
The girl's voice was urgent, as if something major had happened. He Sichen jerked awake and sat up.
In the next moment, he widened his eyes.
The dim sky was pitch-black everywhere.
In the distance, though, the horizon was tinged with a hint of orange.
