Yang Sisi asked me what time I would be busy until tonight. At first, I didn't react, but then I remembered that Wednesday was going back to Dali today, and we had agreed to have dinner together. I was a little embarrassed because I was still on the night shift tonight, and it was not easy to change shifts.

I tapped my temples and replied, "It won't be until after 2 a.m.."

"What about Wednesday... We agreed that you'd host a welcome dinner."

"Can you take the call for me? I really can't change my shift. Xiao Ruan took leave to go back to Xiangyun today, and Xiao Hu is also on the night shift. I don't know the others very well, so they definitely won't want to cover for me and take the toughest night shift."

"Why should I help you answer it? This is your friend."

"Just consider it support for my career... You've always been my biggest supporter!"

"What, you want me to be the woman behind you?"

"Look at you... such a small favor, yet you insist on making it sound like the sky is the limit."

Yang Sisi looked at me with a half-smile, and after a long while replied, "Think about it, Zhou San is such a fragile person. He has staked his career on you this time, but when he came to Dali, no one paid attention to him and no one asked about him... Do you think he'll break down? If he does, he's a brave man who dares to jump off a building... And you still dare to say that this is a small favor."

"Thinking about it, it's actually quite serious! ...Just tell me what to do."

"It's simple. As long as you acknowledge that I'm the woman behind you, I'll help you receive him."

Seeing that I didn't speak, Yang Sisi blinked again and asked, "Do you dare to give me a formal title?"

"What kind of heart are you pressing?"

"Miss, I want to flirt with you."

"So many eyes are watching, that's going too far!"

Yang Sisi ignored me and put her hand on my leg, saying, "If you drink my soup, you're mine... so just give in."

"Aren't you a beast?... Everyone over there is looking this way."

As I spoke, I removed her hand and pretended to stare at the computer screen... I felt like she had suddenly changed her tactics and was making it hard for me to handle... She was mischievous before, but never like this... Could it be that she was possessed by a fox spirit on the mountain?

Just as I was lost in thought, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then scolded, "You're clearly a wolf in sheep's clothing, but you insist on pretending to be a saint... That's all you're good for."

"I need to pee... I need to go to the toilet first."

"Trying to use the restroom as an excuse? ... Sure, take your food to the toilet, eat it, and then come out."

"Can you not be so mean?"

Yang Sisi sighed, "Only this mouth of yours can keep you in check... But what's the use of just being good with words? A strong heart is what really matters... Never mind, I'm not teasing you anymore. I'll pick up Zhou San for you tonight, and we'll wait for you to have a late-night snack together."

Yang Sisi's sudden change caught me off guard. I was stunned for a moment before replying, "Don't wait up, I don't get off work until 2:30."

"We agreed to eat together as a group of three"

There have to be three of us... we can't do without any of us.

...

After Yang Sisi left, it took me a while to get back into work mode; by the time I finished the advertising campaign plan, it was already 3:30 pm, and I had to start delivering food at 4 pm, so there was almost no time to catch my breath.

Fortunately, I ate the nutritious meal and mushroom soup that Yang Sisi brought for lunch, so I was able to keep up mentally.

Actually, whether I want to admit it or not, she is somewhat like the woman behind me.

Thinking of her warms my heart.

That's the truth. After all, we've known each other for more than three years and gone through so much together. Sometimes, even if we're not lovers, we're closer than family.

Furthermore, I never wanted to consider knowing her as a trouble in my life... I'm so glad I had the opportunity to bring her from Shanghai to Dali... Unfortunately, I've never known whether I have romantic feelings for her. Maybe I'll only figure it out when I lose her completely.

It's better not to figure it out. If that day really comes, everyone will be in pain!

...

It seemed like only a moment of daze passed before the half-hour break was over; I perked up, changed into my work clothes, and rode my electric bike through the streets and alleys...

At six o'clock, the woman named An'an ordered takeout. She seemed to really like Chaoshan porridge, so she ordered another type of Chaoshan porridge this time, along with a pastry.

If this is her dinner, then she does take good care of her figure.

...

I delivered the takeout to her place and knocked on the door. She opened it for me in her pajamas. As I handed her the food, I asked with a smile, "You haven't been sleeping in all this time, have you?"

"If I feel like it later, I'll go out for a walk... Any recommendations for fun places to go?"

"bar?"

"Any bar that isn't too noisy is fine."

“My friend opened a quiet bar behind Honglongjing that’s themed around women… I think you’ll like it…”

"What's your name?"

"Woman Flower... If you go there and mention my name, I'll definitely give you a discount."

She smiled and replied, "I really envy you; you have friends everywhere."

"If you're willing to open yourself up, you'll have plenty of friends... I'm off, I have several more orders to deliver, remember to give me a five-star review."

"Um."

...

After a brief chat, I left; the next moment, I received a positive review from An'an, which was really amazing, because in my very early days as a food delivery driver, this woman had given me the most positive reviews...
