A trip that normally took over ten minutes on foot took only a few minutes by bicycle.
Wen Zhixia suddenly found herself wishing the commute to and from school were a little longer.
"Taoist, slow down."
"Any slower and we'll be late."
"No we won't!"
Chen Shi'an slowed down a little and asked curiously,
"When do the results for the monthly exams come out?"
"They'll probably hand back the papers tonight. The rankings should be out around tomorrow."

"Heh."
Chen Shi'an laughed. "Then just get ready to carry my bag."
