During the Chinese New Year, a few taxi companies in the city jointly issued a very strict punishment for violations. The driver knew very well that if Qu Sen really made a complaint today, he would face a fine of at least a thousand yuan.
The driver's words were stuck in his throat. He glanced at Qu Sen and unhappily took out his wallet to give the change.
Zhou Li, who was in the backseat, did not say a word. Li Ying wanted to persuade Qu Sen when she heard that he wanted the driver to give the change. However, before she could say anything, Zhou Li gently poked her.
Later, when he heard from Qu Sen that the driver was actually scolding him, the sympathy he had for the driver was gone. The driver got out of the car with Zhou Li while he was giving the change.
Qu Sen got out of the car and walked directly to the buggy not far away. The driver was still using a crowbar to clean up the area.
Taxis did not care about the extra weight, but buggies could not. The icicles on the buggy meant that it had to carry more weight. More weight naturally meant more fuel consumption. Fuel was expensive, so it was best to save as much as possible.
"Driver, do you need help?" Qu Sen smiled as he stood behind the driver and asked.
"No need." The driver replied instinctively. He was puzzled as to why someone had popped out of nowhere and wanted to help. He straightened his back and looked back.
The driver looked at Qu Sen with the help of the car's lights and then looked at Zhou Li, who was smiling behind him. The driver laughed and said, "Hey, why are you two students here?"
"It's too cold, so we came here to seek shelter." Qu Sen saw that the driver recognized him, so he smiled and joked.
"Hurry up and get in the car." The driver hurriedly urged Zhou Li and Li Ying when he saw them carrying a bunch of bags.
This master was the one that Qu Sen and Zhou Li had met on the day of registration. They had been swimming for a while. He was a very nice person. Before Qu Sen got out of the car, he even deposited 50 yuan with him.
After Qu Sen recognized the taxi, he just wanted to change to another car. He didn't really plan on not paying. Now that he saw his master recognize him and Zhou Li at a glance, he was quite happy. When the two girls got into the car, he took the crowbar from his hand and helped to clean the chassis.
"Did you guys come from the city?" When the master saw the bags in Zhou Li and Li Ying's hands, he knew that the three of them had gone to the city to buy things. However, he had been so busy just now that he did not notice that Qu Sen and the other two had come out of the taxi behind him.
"No, we took a taxi here. The driver didn't want to take us because the traffic was too bad, so we got off," Qu Sen explained.
"Then give me more money. It's so cold. If you didn't see me, would you really have walked back?"
"Hey, we got off because we saw you."
"Ha, I don't have a heater in my car."
"It's okay. As long as it can block the wind."
"Well, you bunch of military students are really tough."
"…" When Qu Sen heard the word "tough", he was speechless. He quickly cleaned up the large pieces of ice hanging on the chassis and followed the buggy master back to the car.
It was still okay during the day when the sun was shining. However, the temperature dropped drastically at night.
In the car, Zhou Li and Li Ying were sitting in the narrow back seat hugging each other for warmth. When they saw Qu Sen get into the car, Zhou Li asked, "Have you thought about how to compensate us?"
"Okay. We'll really catch a cold if we wear such thick clothes." Qu Sen didn't hear the chatter of the taxi driver anymore. After chatting with the buggy master for a while, he calmed down.
"If I knew that he was scolding us, I would have gotten off the car long ago. You're the only one who can hold it in." Li Ying was still angry when she thought about how she was kept in the dark and was scolded for a long time.
"Don't be angry. You're so beautiful today. If you're angry, it'll affect your image." Qu Sen teased Li Ying.
After being praised, Li Ying started to care about her image. She just rolled her eyes and let Qu Sen go.
Trouble had a lot to do with a person's mood. When the three of them and the buggy master chatted for a while, the road outside started to become smoother.
The traffic police had arrived because there were so many scrapes in a row. Under their guidance, the traffic jam was quickly restored and the traffic was naturally faster.
After the big and small cars that had been stuck in the traffic jam for more than an hour, some of them went straight while some of them turned into the left and right side roads.
When they could vaguely see the signboard of the Information Engineering University in the distance, only Qu Sen and the other two's buggy were driving alone on the road.
"Oh no, we fell into the ditch." The buggy master suddenly said.
The buggy was driving fine on the road, so the master was definitely not talking about them. Therefore, Qu Sen and the other two at the back craned their heads to look in front.
As expected, they saw a silver Chalil with a lot of paint peeling off at the bend in front of them. It had plunged into the roadbed.
Although they saw that there was an accident in front of them, the people in the buggy were not too worried.
This was because the road they were driving on was not like the one where there was a traffic jam before. There were too many cars on the road, so the snow on the road had been compressed into ice. However, there was still snow on the roadside. As far as the eye could see, there was only snow in front of them.
It was impossible for a car to drive fast on this kind of road. There was also a thick layer of snow under the roadbed. A car like the Chalil's didn't drive fast, so if it plunged into the snow, the people in the car would basically be fine.
However, even though he knew that the people in the car were probably fine, the buggy master slowly slowed down and moved closer to see if there was anything he could do to help.
As he got closer to the Chalil, Qu Sen saw that the Chalil's car was in reverse. It was trying hard to return to the road. There were also two men pushing the car in front of the car.
Therefore, he prepared himself and decided to wait for the buggy to stop before getting out to help. Just as the buggy was about to stop, the back door of the Chalil's car suddenly opened. A child jumped out of the car and climbed up the roadbed on all fours before running towards the buggy.
The driver's seat door of the Chalil's car opened immediately after the child jumped out. A man got out of the car and looked like he wanted to chase after the child. However, the adult was not as agile as the child. When he climbed up the roadbed, he accidentally slipped and fell. The two men pushing the car in front of the car saw the situation and let go of their hands. They went around the Chalil from both sides and climbed up the road on all fours.
After the child climbed onto the road, he ran towards the buggy while shouting, "Help!
help!
[PS: Help, it means I've been kidnapped.]
The child's voice was sharp and had a strong penetrating power. It was instantly transmitted into the buggy.
Although the buggy master didn't understand what the child was shouting, he instinctively felt that something was wrong when he saw the three adults chasing after him. The child was running in a hurry and panic.
Zhou Li and Li Ying's expressions changed. As for Qu Sen, he had already opened the car door and rushed over when the child climbed onto the roadbed.
The reason why Qu Sen reacted so quickly was not because he heard the child's cry for help, but because under the headlights of the buggy, he immediately saw that the little boy was wearing an orange sweater and jeans!
He could also vaguely see that one of the two men pushing the car in front of the Chalil's car was dressed very similar to the tall man who was carrying the child in the supermarket.
When Qu Sen was about to leave the supermarket, he heard the missing person announcement. He was scared out of his wits, but since he was in a hurry to leave the supermarket, he didn't think too much about it.
Now that the child's dirty coat was gone, it was obvious that he was wearing clothes. In addition, he ran out of the car in a hurry. Qu Sen didn't think too much about it. He made a judgment in his heart and went up to him.
Because he didn't remember the child's voice from the missing person announcement in the supermarket, he only remembered the child's surname. After he took the child over, he put his hands on his shoulders and asked, "Is your surname Zheng?"
"Yeah, yes, I'm Zheng." Although the child had a Chinese face and could understand Mandarin, he didn't speak well.
He answered with a frightened look on his face. He turned around and pointed at the three men who were chasing after him and shouted, "They!
me! [They kidnapped me.] "
