Inside the car.
Shen Feng was driving attentively.
Yao Fangrou sat in the passenger seat beside him, and neither of them spoke.
The atmosphere in the car was quiet.
Though they both appeared calm, they were deeply conflicted inside.
Should they break the silence or not?
Soon, they reached a traffic light, and Shen Feng stopped the car.
He looked at the intersection ahead.
Then, pretending to be casual, he asked Yao Fangrou,
"Ms. Yao, want to listen to some music?"
Yao Fangrou had been wondering how to start a conversation.
When she heard Shen Feng's question, she felt slightly relieved.
She brushed the hair at her neck aside.
"Sure!"
Shen Feng smiled slightly and turned on the car stereo.
He had connected it directly to the music on his phone.
The songs Shen Feng listened to tended to be niche folk music.
A song slowly began playing in the car:
In a northern village lived a girl from the south,
She always liked wearing a floral dress as she stood by the roadside,
She did not speak much, but her smile was so serene and elegant,
What filled her gentle eyes was the sorrow of longing...
Yao Fangrou froze when she heard the song.
Then she looked at Shen Feng in surprise and delight.
"Southern Girl!"
The light had turned green, and Shen Feng started the car.
Hearing Yao Fangrou's words, he smiled and nodded.
"You've heard it too?"
"Of course! I like this song quite a bit!"
Yao Fangrou said with a smile, then seemed to think of something.
"Shen Feng, do you like folk music?"
As he drove, Shen Feng replied,
"Yes, I really like folk music!"
"Haha, me too!"
Yao Fangrou answered with a smile. She genuinely liked folk music.
Shen Feng glanced at Yao Fangrou
