After Xue Qiandai left, Jian Yan picked up her bag and walked towards the restaurant with Qin Shu and the others.
"Let me do it," Qin Shu said, extending his hand.
Jian Yan didn't move; her bag wasn't heavy either.
But Qin Shu simply stretched out his arms, turning himself into a statue.
Jian Yan sighed softly and handed the bag to Qin Shu.
As the sun sets, the CBD comes alive with traffic, and light shows illuminate the buildings.
The three chose the most efficient route: walking. Jian Yao, being sensible, took three steps back and followed closely. Jian Yan and Qin Shu walked side by side, the man on the left and the woman on the right, saying little but not feeling awkward.

As a result, riders were willing to drive against traffic and even hit pedestrians to complete their tasks. Qin Shu wanted to hold a meeting at the company after returning; on-time delivery was important, but safe driving and avoiding injury to pedestrians were even more crucial.
