Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuehui couldn't help but glare sideways at Sun Yuanyuan, who was standing next to her with a mocking smile.
"No need," Zhao Xuehui thought to herself, not wanting these people to eat the food her younger brother bought. Then, feeling a little guilty, she added, "But you could bring some coffee. Everyone's tired late at night, and a little coffee can help them perk up."
Jiang Sheng readily agreed without hesitation. After hanging up the phone, he went to the coffee shop and bought a lot of coffee. Then, he rode his bicycle with one hand and the coffee in the other towards the broadcasting station.
Upon arriving at the radio station, Jiang Sheng entered the studio on the third floor, casually handed a glass of iced Americano to Sun Yuanyuan, and then greeted everyone.
Zhao Xuehui had already arrived at the broadcast control room. She saw Jiang Sheng walking in from afar, but she couldn't speak to him. She could only smile and wave as a greeting.
Jiang Sheng smiled at Zhao Xuehui and gave Sun Yuanyuan a gentle smile.
"Sister Yuanyuan, I brought you an iced Americano today. Try it and see if it suits your taste."
Sun Yuanyuan accepted the coffee with some surprise, gave Jiang Sheng a thumbs up, stuck out her tongue deliberately, glanced at Zhao Xuehui, and then giggled.
"Oh, my little brother is so thoughtful. It's just a pity that Xue'er won't let me do it, otherwise, I would really like to ask Xiao Sheng to be my boyfriend!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sheng couldn't help but scratch his head awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.
"Ahem, hey Sister Yuanyuan, when will our night shift end? I'm mainly worried about Second Sister's safety."
Actually, he had already asked Zhao Xuehui this question before, but he brought it up deliberately today to cover up his embarrassment.
“It seems like it should be ready the day after tomorrow,” Sun Yuanyuan immediately gave a positive answer: “Don’t worry, this time Xue’er will be replaced by a male announcer. As long as he’s there, Xue’er won’t have to work overtime at night anymore.”
Having received Sun Yuanyuan's reply, Jiang Sheng was relieved.
This means that Zhao Xuehui will work one more night shift tomorrow, and then she won't have to work overtime anymore.
Sun Yuanyuan teased Jiang Sheng a few more times, and the two chatted and laughed for a while before it was time to start recording the program.
At that moment, the phone rang in the broadcasting room.
The moment the phone rang, Jiang Sheng knew it must be Zhao Defu calling.
Sure enough, after Sun Yuanyuan answered the phone, he turned his attention to Jiang Sheng and waved to him.
"Xiaosheng, this is for you. They say they are your friend."
Jiang Sheng quickly stepped forward and took the phone receiver: "Defu, is everything alright?"
Zhao Defu on the other end of the phone didn't know how to explain, so he said, "I just got back. My older sister went out and seemed to be chatting with a boy. They chatted for a while and then left. Judging from their voices, it seemed like my older sister was going home to change clothes. I was afraid of being discovered, so I came back ten minutes early."
Go home and change your clothes?
Jiang Sheng felt an even greater sense of crisis. He subconsciously glanced at the clock on the wall and realized that it was already 7:30 p.m.
The older sister gets off work at 6 p.m., and an hour and a half has passed now, and neither of them has gone to eat yet.
Moreover, the older sister even changed her clothes specifically for this date, which made Jiang Sheng even more nervous.
“Defu, listen to me,” Jiang Sheng said very seriously, “After your eldest sister goes out, you should follow her from a distance and make sure you are not discovered.”
Zhao Defu nodded quickly, and hung up the phone just before the door to his house was opened.
"Big sister, you're back!"
Zhao Nianmeng looked at Zhao Defu standing not far from her, and without thinking too much, she smiled gently and greeted him.
"Oh, it's Defu," Zhao Nianmeng said with a smile, then added apologetically, "I'm sorry, I have a dinner appointment tonight with two friends, so I'm afraid I can't have dinner with you at home tonight."
Zhao Defu quickly waved his hand, and just as he was about to say something, Zhao Nianmeng looked around the living room with some curiosity.
"Xiaosheng must have told you, right? He's not coming home for dinner tonight. By the way, where is he now?"
“Brother Sheng just went to the radio station,” Zhao Defu quickly said. “He also told me that it’s okay if you’re not coming home for dinner tonight, I can manage on my own!”
To avoid arousing Zhao Nianmeng's suspicion, Zhao Defu went to the kitchen and pointed to the soup simmering in the pot.
"I can cook too, so we'll just have something simple to eat later, don't worry, big sister!"
He was thankful that he had hastily made a bowl of soup when he got home, and it came in handy at this moment.
"That's good!"
Zhao Nianmeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Knowing that Zhou Changgui and Liu Qianqian were waiting for her outside, she chatted briefly with Zhao Defu before returning to her bedroom to change her clothes.
Zhao Defu finally breathed a sigh of relief when Zhao Nianmeng returned to her room.
"Luckily I reacted quickly; I couldn't let my older sister find out I was secretly following him..."
Zhao Defu gently patted his chest, then hurried to the kitchen.
Meanwhile, Zhao Nianmeng, having changed her clothes, came to the living room and found Zhao Defu busy in the kitchen. After greeting him, she turned and left.
After Zhao Nianmeng left, Zhao Defu quickly turned off the stove in the kitchen and then quietly left the room.
Seeing Zhao Nianmeng standing across from his house talking and chatting with a boy and another girl, Zhao Defu was curious and quickly found a secluded place to hide.
At this moment, Zhao Nianmeng and Liu Qianqian were standing together, looking at Lin Jiafu in front of them, and smiled.
"I'm treating Qianqian and Team Leader Lin to dinner today, so they can relax a bit. After all, you two are invaluable friends in the factory."
Lin Jiafu quickly waved his hand, a shy smile on his face: "Director Zhao is too kind. It is my honor to be regarded as a friend by Director Zhao."
After exchanging pleasantries, Zhao Nianmeng suggested eating at a nearby noodle shop.
Lin Jiafu, looking at the arm linked with Liu Qianqian's, felt a deep sense of regret.
With an extra third wheel, there were some things he wanted to say, but he couldn't bring himself to say them today.
He had originally intended to sound out the situation regarding reforms, in particular.
But……
