After walking out of the Public Security Bureau’s office building, Zhong Han took out the car keys and handed them to Gu Xiaofan.

"What are you doing?" Gu Xiaofan waved his hands quickly, "You don't want me to drive? No, no! I'm a famous road killer! You should drive!"

Zhong Han seemed to be in a dilemma. He held the key and thought for a while, then pointed outside the yard: "Then let's take the bus!"

"You can't drive either?" Gu Xiaofan naturally thought of Zhong Han as someone like himself.

Zhong Han shook his head: "It's not that I can't drive. I'm new here and I'm not familiar with the routes in City A. If I drive, I'm probably going to be like a headless fly. It's better for me to take public transportation to familiarize myself with the routes first."

"Just by taking the bus a few times, you can remember the route? And in the future you may need to go to a route that the bus doesn't pass by. How will you find it then?" Gu Xiaofan didn't mind taking the bus, but he couldn't help but doubt Zhong Han's confidence in remembering the route.

Zhong Han raised his index finger and waved it left and right in front of Gu Xiaofan: "Here's a piece of advice for you. Never question a man's ability to recognize the road and sense of direction in person. This is an important part of a man's self-esteem!"

Gu Xiaofan curled his lips and hooked his fingers: "Let's go, I can't drive, but I'm quite familiar with taking the bus."

So Gu Xiaofan, a native of City A, took Zhong Han, a foreigner who had just settled here, to the nearby bus station as he was familiar with the place. After changing buses twice, they finally arrived near the location of Ren Xuefeng's company.

"This is only your first day at work, and you've already prepared a change of clothes in your closet?" Gu Xiaofan asked when they got off the bus and walked towards Ren Xuefeng's company. If she hadn't noticed that the girl sitting next to her on the bus was secretly glancing at Zhong Han, she probably wouldn't have paid close attention to Zhong Han's clothing until now.

After the sleeves of his original clothes were soaked by Xu Ruobei's crying and were stained with tears and snot, he changed into a turtleneck sweater. The sweater was pure black and made of thick yarn. The turtleneck was not the kind that fits tightly around the neck, but a very loose pile collar. It matched well with the black and gray casual pants on his lower body, and the colors looked very harmonious and good-looking. Coupled with Zhong Han's straight posture and handsome looks, it's no wonder that the young girl next to Gu Xiaofan couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.
