At ten o'clock in the evening, I was about to go to bed early after taking a shower, but my father suddenly called me.

When I saw the caller ID, my heart skipped a beat and I became nervous subconsciously.

Some people say that when people are middle-aged, they are most afraid of calls from their family members late at night. Usually, calls from midnight are bad things. I used to mute my phone before going to bed, but now I dare not mute my phone at all.

I took a deep breath and answered the phone.

"Hello……"

My father's hoarse voice came out, "Hey, Yu Bin, come back quickly."

My heart was beating wildly and I hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

He stammered on the phone, "Come back first! You will know when you come back."

"Okay! I get it."

Suppressing the rolling emotions in my heart, I knocked on Mei Xueyan's door overnight.

The door opened, revealing a small face the size of a palm, and the dark deer eyes under the willow eyebrows were stunned.

"Why are your face so ugly? What's wrong?"

"I just received a call from my dad and asked me to go back quickly. I... I have to ask for a few days off first."

From the time I received the call, my mind was blank and I stuttered.

"Okay, you go home to handle the matter first, and then come back to work after you finish your work. How do you leave? Is the high-speed rail?"

I shook my head, "I'll leave now, drive Feifei's car, it's still 200 kilometers away from my house, and it's just a few hours away."

Mei Xueyan looked trembling and said with some concern: "Can you drive in your current state? If it really doesn't work, I'll drive you."

I felt warm in my heart, but rejected her kindness, "It's okay, it's just two hundred kilometers, I'll drive slowly. You still have so much work to deal with when you go back."

Seeing that I was very determined, she stopped insisting and told me to pay attention to safety on the way and report safety when I arrived.

Before leaving, I sent Lin Feifei a WeChat message. After all, it was her car, and it was a bit unreasonable without her consent.

Lin Feifei replied to the message, she just told me to slow down and didn't say anything else.

I stepped on the accelerator and the car was like a wild horse with its reins, driving on the highway at a speed of lightning. Outside the window, the scenery on both sides of the road floated past the eyes like the wind. Big trucks were one after another on the highway late at night. During the winter and summer vacations, I followed my second uncle to pass a large truck. Only those who have driven it can understand the pain. For big truck drivers, turning around is common.

Life is not easy, we always rush forward without hesitation, racing against time, and dare not slackew.

The Tesla was out of power in the middle, so I was forced to stop in the service area to charge, smoke a cigarette, and relax my tense nerves.

It was already past 11 o'clock in the evening. I squatted on the curb and looked up at the dark and deep night sky, which made people feel a sense of fear.

At midnight, floating outside alone, undoubtedly aggravated the loneliness in my heart.

I was a little desolate. When I was feeling depressed, Lin Feifei called in.

I was shocked. She was not asleep yet!

"Hey, Yu Bin, have you arrived home?"

My heart felt warm. It was so good that I could be drifting alone and someone was caring for me.

"No! I'm in the service area and charging the car! It's so late, why haven't you been sleeping yet?"

"Who is the young man going to bed so early? I just finished playing games with Tang Qin and the others. They asked you why you are not here. Then I remembered to ask if you are home."

I smiled silently and said, "Have you heard a word of idiom? A donkey gnaws on a millstone."

Lin Feifei was stunned, "What does it mean?"

"Hard-mouthed!"

"Hey! I kindly care about you, you're hurting me! I'm dead!"

When I heard that she wanted to hang up, I subconsciously stopped her, "Don't hang up!"

A charming humming sounded from the phone, "I know you're scared now? How long will it take to get home?"

I opened the map of my phone and looked at it, "There are still 80 kilometers left to get off the expressway, and I have to drive more than ten kilometers after getting off the expressway. I arrived before 3 a.m.."

"It's too late, why don't you take a night off in the service area tonight?"

I was anxious and didn't have the time to rest. Moreover, the hotels in the service area were so expensive that I was reluctant to spend so few hundred yuan to stay in such a small and dilapidated hotel.

"No, it's not the first time I've been running a night car. You don't have to be too nervous about me!"

Lin Feifei said "cut", "Who cares about you! You are thinking too much."

Although she didn't admit it, I was very happy.

I looked at the car that was about to be fully charged, so I hung up the phone reluctantly.

Before hanging up the phone, Lin Feifei still stubbornly asked me to come home to report my safety to her.

I smiled, "Then you change my WeChat to the non-disturbance mode. I'm sending you a message and you will see it when you wake up."

"No, just report peace to me when you arrive."

Seeing that she insisted so much, I agreed.

I hung up the phone reluctantly, rubbed my face, bought a few cans of Red Bull at the convenience store 24 hours a day, and drove away.

Perhaps it was because of Lin Feifei's phone call just now that I lowered the car along the way and kept running within the safe speed limit.

After more than two hours of running around, I finally got home.

I calmed down and took out the key and opened the door.

"Dad! Mom!"

As soon as I entered the yard, I started shouting.

A moment later, my dad walked out of the house in a dress and pulled his slippers.

While he was hitting Hache, he scolded me: "Why are you quarreling in the middle of the night? Why did you run back in the middle of the night?"

My mother followed closely behind, "Yu Bin is back, have you eaten? Mom makes some food for you?"

I shook my head and looked at my dad suspiciously, "Didn't you ask me to come back? What happened? Is your physical examination report coming out?"

My dad looked a little weird and hesitated: "It's so late, let's talk about anything tomorrow!"

"What can't be said now?"

My dad was a little impatient, "It's too late to talk about it tomorrow. Don't worry, your mom and I are fine. If I had known that you had run back in the middle of the night, I would have called you during the day."

My mother also blamed him, "I just told you to talk about it during the day, and you will be calm."

After hearing what they said, I felt a little relieved. I ran the highway for several hours in the middle of the night, and the thread in my heart was tense. Seeing their mysterious appearance, I probably couldn't ask anything, so I might as well wait for the day before talking!

I was too tired and went back to my room, threw myself onto the bed, and stared at the ceiling in a daze. I suddenly remembered that I had not yet reported my safety to Lin Feifei, so I sent her a message so that she could feel at ease.

Me: "I'm here, you can put your heart in your pelvis."

After sending it, I was about to put down my phone and go to bed, but I didn't expect that Lin Feifei would reply in seconds.

"Who is worried about you? I am worried about my car."

Looking at the message on the screen, I couldn't help but laugh and replied quickly.

"A good girl, she just likes to talk nonsense. Go to bed early! Staying up late can easily cause eye bags."

"Tsk, what do you know? I'm called "Wu Meng". I'm not poor with you, good night."

After saying good night to each other, I fell asleep. The fatigue of running long distances tortured me exhausted. I woke up once in the morning, but I was drowsy, so I just got off and continued to sleep.
