My cousin-in-law helped me achieve my ambitions.

Half an hour later, the second container truck arrived.

This time, Su Ming took the initiative to stand up, took off his shirt to reveal a white undershirt underneath, and worked alongside the workers.

He moved goods, handed them over, and stacked them. He was quick and strong, doing the work of two people. After working for more than an hour, he was soaked in sweat, but he didn't feel tired at all.

Li Wei nodded approvingly, "Good lad, you've got some skills!"

Su Ming smiled and continued working.

By the time the second truck was loaded, it was almost 5:30. There were still five minutes left before I had to leave work.

Su Ming had just washed his face and was about to return to the goods team when he saw Wu Yumin sauntering over again.

He stood beside the container truck, looked at the neatly stacked goods, then at Su Ming, who was soaking wet, and a smile that made people uncomfortable appeared on his face.

"Not bad, well done," he said. "Come on, come back with me."

Su Ming said goodbye to Li Wei and followed Wu Yumin back.

Wu Yumin remained silent throughout the journey. Su Ming also didn't bother to speak.

Back in the receiving team's office, Tian Jing was packing up to leave work. Seeing Su Ming return, she breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something when Wu Yumin spoke first: "Su Ming, you did a good job today. As a reward, I've decided..."

Su Ming looked at the other party curiously, wondering what tricks this bastard was up to now.

Wu Yumin paused, his gaze sweeping over Su Ming and Tian Jing's faces, his smile deepening: "I'll have you stay for lunch to arrange for receiving the goods. There's an urgent shipment to collect, so I'll let you have it. Don't worry, I'll pay you overtime."

Tian Jing was taken aback, then her expression changed: "Team leader, what do you mean? Su Ming has only been here for one day, how could he possibly know anything about this?"

"Really?" Wu Yumin tilted his head to look at her. "Then how about this, you stay and mentor him. You're a long-time employee, you should know how, right?"

"You..." Tian Jing's chest heaved with anger.

Wu Yumin didn't give her a chance to speak, waving his hand: "Alright, it's settled then. You two pack it together, and you can leave work after you're done."

He walked to the door, then turned back, grinning smugly: "Listen up, you can't leave until you've finished collecting all the goods! If it's late, go out for a big meal! Haha, anyway, the cafeteria food will cost you money."

Tian Jing pouted, wishing she could tear him to pieces. It was late; going out meant eating something even more expensive, which was clearly just wasting money.

Wu Yumin ignored her and slammed the door shut.

The office was silent for a few seconds.

Tian Jing stomped her feet in anger: "How could this person be like this! It's too much!"

She turned her head and saw Su Ming looking at the door with a calm gaze, and suddenly felt a little sorry for this new young man.

"Su Ming, don't take it to heart..." she said, trying to comfort him.

Su Ming smiled, walked up to her, and said gently, "Miss Tian, ​​why don't you let me receive the goods by myself? Actually, I've already seen your receiving process and I know how it works. You should go have dinner first; the canteen might not have any food left if you go late, and you'll have to spend money to eat out, which is even more expensive."

Tian Jing was taken aback: "You've already learned how to do it?"

"Okay!" Su Ming nodded. "I remembered what you said this afternoon. I also watched how they count and put the goods into storage at the finished goods warehouse just now. The receiving process should be more or less the same."

Tian Jing looked at him, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. This young man was rather interesting.

But she still shook her head: "No, I'm not comfortable with that. If something goes wrong, Wu Yumin will have even more to say. He might just find a reason to fire you!"

"Then... what should we do..." Su Ming hesitated.

"I'll go with you." Tian Jing smiled, a stubborn glint in her eyes. "We can just have lunch a little later. Two people working will be faster."

Su Ming looked at her, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

"Thank you, Ms. Tian."

Tian Jing rolled her eyes at him: "Can you please stop calling me 'Miss'? People who don't know me might think I do something else." She paused, then smiled, "Just call me Sister Jing."

"Sister Jing," Su Ming called out obediently.

Tian Jing nodded in satisfaction and turned to get the documents: "Let's go, the goods are in the inspection area, let's go check them."

The two left the office one after the other and walked towards the inspection area.

As the sun set, it cast long shadows on them.

As Su Ming walked behind, looking at the figure in work clothes with light steps in front of him, he suddenly felt that this factory wasn't so bad after all.

Some people are there to hold an umbrella for you.

Tian Jing closed the office door, but didn't lock it.

"It's just the two of us anyway," she said. "We still have to go out when the goods arrive."

Su Ming nodded and sat down in front of the computer. Tian Jing moved a chair next to him and began to teach him how to use the operating system.

"Look, this is the inventory receiving interface..." She held the mouse, the cursor moving across the screen. "First, scan the delivery note number, then enter the material code. The system will automatically display the name and specifications. Check the quantity, and if everything is correct, click 'confirm'..."

Su Ming listened intently, his eyes fixed on the screen, but all he could smell was Tian Jing's faint fragrance—not perfume, but more like the scent of laundry detergent mixed with a girl's body heat, light and subtle.

"Have you learned it?" Tian Jing turned to look at him.

The two were very close, so close that Su Ming could see the curve of her eyelashes.

"I understand." He looked away and stared at the screen.

Tian Jing smiled and handed him the mouse: "Then give it a try, click around a bit, and get familiar with the interface."

Su Ming took the mouse and moved it clumsily. Back in his hometown middle school, he'd only had a few computer classes, using 386 computers with black-and-white DOS systems. This computer, with its Windows interface and color screen, was a completely new experience for him.

"This is refresh... this is back... this is save..." Tian Jing pointed out from the side.

Su Ming slowly explored it and found it quite interesting.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened. The fluorescent lights in the office were on, illuminating the entire room. In the distance, the occasional roar of a truck and the laughter of workers leaving get off work could be heard, gradually fading away.

The factory area has quieted down.

Su Ming was making his mark when he suddenly heard Tian Jing cry out, "Ouch!"

He turned his head and saw her clutching her stomach, her brows furrowed.

"What's wrong, Sister Jing?"

"My stomach hurts..." Tian Jing said with a pained expression. "I probably ate something bad at lunch."

She stood up, holding onto the edge of the table: "I'm going to the restroom. You wait here, call me when the goods arrive, and I'll be right back."

"it is good."

Tian Jing opened the office door and strode into the depths of the warehouse—the restroom was in the innermost corner of the warehouse.

The door wasn't closed; it was ajar.

Su Ming continued exploring the computer. He moved the mouse over "Input Query" and clicked it, watching rows of data pop up on the screen. He was studying what the numbers meant when suddenly—

"drop."

The warehouse door slammed shut.

That was the sound of a card being swiped at the access control system.

Su Ming was taken aback.

At this hour, are people still coming?

He subconsciously looked towards the door and, through the half-open office door, could see the lights on in the main warehouse corridor, and a figure walking towards him.

The high heels clicked crisply on the concrete floor.

It's a woman.
