The Last Bus · Appointment 422

Tang Qing promises to take the last bus to pick up the keys to Wei Qing's new studio, but her final delivery is dispatched to the wrong address, forcing her to choose between explaining promptly or pushing through to make it. She calls on her own initiative to explain the situation, and Wei Qing takes the keys to wait at a stop along both their routes. Rather than blaming each other for the ruined original plan, the two check their respective time off and decide to leave buffer room for future meetings so that appointments no longer feel like a sprint.
