The driver glanced at Xue Jing through the rearview mirror and, while handing over the QR code to Xue Jing, asked with confusion,
"You're going on foot? We're quite far from Qingcheng Affiliated Middle School, even if you run, I'm afraid it would take half an hour. It might be better to wait until the road is clear."
After Xue Jing paid using the QR code, he smiled and said,
"No worries, my running speed is a bit faster than others."
He opened the car door and got out.
Instead of heading along the road, he turned and looked towards Qingcheng Affiliated Middle School.
"Between two points, the straight line is the shortest."
He muttered to himself.
The driver rolled down the front passenger window and called out to Xue Jing, "Young man, if you want to run, I can show you a shortcut..."
He hadn't finished speaking when his eyes went wide.
This handsome young man actually leaped straight off the overpass.
"Suicide!?"
The driver exclaimed.
