Chi Yun'er repeated the same pitch four or five times that day, successfully procuring canned goods, honey, candies, and biscuits that would last through the summer for her work unit's employees!
With their first battle won, the group returned in a jam-packed van. Just as they reached the entrance, Uncle Li shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Is Miss Chi around? Your boyfriend Little Jiang is here!"
Chi Yun'er was stunned. As the van screeched to a halt, her head bumped against the seat in front of her.
She had been overworking her brain lately and was a bit slow on the uptake. She rubbed her slightly aching forehead, utterly bewildered. 'Boyfriend? What boyfriend?'
But a moment later, her cheeks flushed. She cleared her throat and said:
"Could you two comrades please take the samples from the van into the warehouse? And grab a case of drinks to share with everyone in there. You've all worked hard these past few days."
