Let \(q\) be an arbitrary positive integer, \(\chi\) be a primitive character modulo \(q\), and let \(\Lambda(n)\) be the von Mangoldt function. For \(N\leq q^{16/9}\), the authors prove that \[ \left|\sum_{n\leq N}\Lambda(n)\chi(n+a)\right|\leq \left(N^{7/8}q^{1/9}+N^{33/32}q^{-1/18}\right)q^{o(1)}. \]
