The evening breeze was a bit chilly. Wan Ge, who had just lost her job, walked along the riverbank, listening to the caring phone call from the original owner's father.

“Ge’er, in your parents’ eyes, you will always be our precious child. If you’ve been wronged over there, come home. Your parents may not be able to earn as much money as you, but it’s enough to support you.”

"Dad, look at what you're saying. Don't you want to listen to what you're saying? It's okay, I'll find a new job." Wan Ge quickly reassured the person on the other end of the phone, afraid that if the other person was unhappy, they would call her back.

"Alright, alright, if you want to stay there a little longer, your parents won't stop you. Your mother just sent you some money, so remember not to be stingy and buy whatever you want."

Wan Ge immediately responded on the other end of the phone: "Yes, thank you, Mom and Dad."

"Alright, it's getting late. You should go home and get some sleep. Your dad is worried about you being out so late."

"I understand, I'll go back now. Goodnight, Mom and Dad."

"good evening."

After hanging up the phone, Wan Ge put down her phone.

She looked up and saw a man sitting on a bench not far away. There was an incredibly familiar feeling in her heart. She had been here for several days and had not seen him. She was worried that she would have to wait a long time like in the last world, but she did not expect to meet him now.

The man met her gaze, the envy in his eyes just moments before vanishing in an instant.

Wan Ge smiled slightly and walked over to the other person: "Why are you sitting alone by the river so late at night, little brother?"

The other person looked at her and said, "Aren't you also alone by the river late at night, young lady?"

Wan Ge sighed, "I just lost my job and was feeling down, so I came to the riverbank for a walk. How about you, young man? Are you feeling down too?"

"More or less," Mu Jingnian replied casually.

I don't know why, but after seeing the little girl in front of me, I felt much more relaxed about things that were making me unhappy.

"Want to grab a drink together? It's on me."

Mu Jingnian shook his head: "I don't drink."

He didn't know why she was so enthusiastic, but he was quite happy. Although he felt a little confused, he felt joy just seeing her. How strange, could this be the feeling of being moved?

"Why would a girl like me go drinking with you? I meant drinking milk tea."

"ah?"

Wan Ge gave him a look: "Want to come together?"

"Okay." Mu Jingnian got up and walked with her. Whether she drank milk tea or not didn't matter to him. What he was more worried about was the safety of a young girl like her.

…

The two had walked a few steps when they saw a milk tea shop.

Wan Ge ordered a drink for both of them, but when it came time to scan the QR code, the other person scanned it first.

"You're a lady, how could I let you pay the bill?"

"Thanks then, young man. Would you like to exchange contact information?" When facing him, Wan Ge didn't feel rushed or abrupt at all, because she knew him too well. He might even think it wasn't fast enough!

"Okay." Mu Jingnian then asked the other party to scan the QR code to add him as a friend.

"We are both wanderers in this world, and we can hardly be considered as close friends."

"You've become close friends so quickly?"

"Don't worry about the time." Wan Ge smiled at him again.

Looking at her smile, Mu Jingnian felt a warm glow in his heart: "Let me take you home."

“Okay, my home is in the neighborhood up ahead.”

"I didn't know you lived so close by."

Wan Ge smiled again: "Right? I missed the chance for the handsome young man to take me home slowly."

"No, it's good that you live nearby." He was worried about the other person's safety, but now he could breathe a sigh of relief; it turned out he lived near the other person's home.

…

The two walked slowly and soon arrived at the entrance of the residential area.

Looking at the residential complex in front of her, Mu Jingnian asked Wan Ge with some confusion, "You live here, what's your job...?"

Wange glanced back at the neighborhood and then replied, "I rented a place here. I lost my job, so I guess I'll have to move."

The house is indeed rented. She hasn't moved in yet because she's worried that the formaldehyde wasn't completely removed from the house she bought after renovations.

She hadn't actually graduated for very long; she had worked here for half a year and had only been officially hired a few months prior, but now she had lost her job again.

"Do you need my help?"

Wan Ge noticed that the other person was dressed simply, which was different from their previous style. The clothes they were wearing weren't very expensive, so she concluded that the other person probably hadn't made a fortune yet.

Judging solely by his demeanor is insufficient; in terms of his soul, his aura would be considered quite good no matter where he goes.

So some people are suspicious: "You have listings? You're not a real estate agent, are you?"

"No, but I do have some recommendations."

"Okay, but I still have more than half a month's rent to pay. We can talk slowly."

"Um."

Wan Ge could actually move to his new home now, since the tests are all negative. However, he wanted to have more contact with the other person, so naturally he wouldn't tell him that he had a choice of places to go.

"Okay, then we'll see you next time, Miss Lin."

"You don't need to be so polite with me, just call me Wange."

"Okay." Mu Jingnian nodded, but still didn't call her name so easily.

…

Wan Ge went home and had a good sleep. Just as she woke up, she received a phone call.

She was Wange's colleague at the company. The two had always had a good relationship. Now that she had just left the company, they hadn't lost contact so quickly.
