On a sultry July day, cicadas chirped noisily on the old sycamore trees. Chen Xuan rode a dilapidated electric bicycle through the narrow alleys. The takeaways in the bicycle basket exuded a pungent smell as the bicycle went bumpy. Sweat soaked through his faded T-shirt, with large dark marks on the back, and beads of sweat on his face dripped down his angular jaw.
"Ding——" A new order prompt popped up on the phone. Chen Xuan glanced at the address and frowned even more. It is a high-end villa area in the west of the city. Just climbing the hill takes a lot of time, and you will be charged for being late. He turned the switch fiercely, and the electric car made a laborious roar as it trudged forward on the steep slope.
"Young man, be careful!" The man selling watermelon on the roadside suddenly shouted. Chen Xuan looked up and saw a black luxury car rushing down the slope at an alarming speed. He braked hurriedly, and the electric car skidded on the hot asphalt road. The takeaway box flew out and the soup spilled all over the floor.
