The white rose I picked up cried and said she liked me.

"Huh? What's wrong, Tiger? We were doing so well, why all of a sudden..."

Qi Yu was immediately panicked and hurriedly asked the question.

Xu Nian also looked astonished.

Although changing jobs is a normal occurrence for him.

But he had been doing this job for more than a month, which gave him the illusion that it was very stable.

Subconsciously, he already believed that he no longer had to go back to the life of struggling to make ends meet.

But reality still dealt him a heavy blow.

Xu Nian quickly felt relieved.

It's already very fortunate that he was able to stay employed for more than a month.

He didn't want to ask for anything more; he was just content to have earned enough for a day's work.

Xu Hu didn't say much, but his face revealed a lot of anger and resentment.

He assigned everyone their duties for the last day and then left.

"Brother Xu, what... what should we do?"

Qi Yu, completely bewildered, asked Xu Nian.

He finally adapted to the job and saved up some money, but it was still far from enough to cover his school tuition.

He never imagined he would one day be unemployed.

"Let's stand guard until the very end."

Xu Nian led him to his workstation for the day, and they began their last day of work.

Unlike the usual lighthearted atmosphere, today's mood was unusually somber.

Qi Yu was always absent-minded while working, and several times he reassigned the goods to other production lines.

Fortunately, Xu Nian has a sharp eye and can always pick out the missorted goods.

He remained silent, pondering how to find his next job.

After paying Xu Xi's tuition, he had very little money left.

If I don't find another job soon, I'll be back to struggling to make ends meet.

"Brother Xu, can you ride a bike?"

"I know a little, what's wrong?"

Qi Yu thought for a moment and then said.

"Can you teach me how? I want to use my savings to buy an electric scooter to deliver food."

Delivering takeout?

Xu Nian remembered that she had considered this job a few years ago.

However, the basic requirement of owning an electric vehicle kept him out.

Moreover, the real-name verification process on food delivery platforms is very strict, and you can't fool them with fake IDs.

Now that he's an adult, the issue of using his real name is no longer a problem.

However, electric vehicles remain an insurmountable barrier.

Although she had enough money to buy an electric car, this meant Xu Xi wouldn't be able to afford her tuition.

"Okay, tomorrow then."

"it is good."

Xu Nian shook her head with a wry smile.

Sending Xuxi to school is more important; if we miss this year, we'll have to wait another year.

As for how to make money, I'll go to the job market tomorrow when I have time.

Before leaving work, Xu Hu found the two men.

"Xu Nian, Qi Yu, let's have dinner together after work. It's on me."

Qi Yu hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Xu Nian was about to refuse when Xu Hu interrupted her with a displeased look on his face.

"Farewell dinner, Xu Nian, I'm treating everyone who's worked with me for a long time."

"You and Qi Yu have worked for me the longest, you wouldn't refuse to give me this face, would you?"

Having said all that, Xu Nian had no choice but to agree.

He called Grandpa Deng and asked him to tell Xu Xi that he wouldn't be coming home for dinner that night.

After work, besides Xu Nian and Qi Yu, there were four or five other people who followed Xu Hu.

Without a doubt, these were also the people Xu Hu was treating them to.

Xu Hu led the group to a lively food stall.

"Old Li, bring out all your best dishes. I'm treating my comrades who worked with me to a farewell dinner today. Don't make me lose face."

"Alright, I have to give my brother Tiger face. Today I'll personally cook a few of my specialties for you guys."

The boss was a middle-aged man similar to Xu Hu. He wiped the sweat from his brow, smiled, and took a ladle into the kitchen.

Before long, several large and fragrant dishes were served.

While eating heartily, Xu Hu started talking non-stop.

Among the group of people who had been with him the longest, he spoke frankly about the truth behind the breakup.

It turns out that a leader with connections was transferred to the logistics park. Eager to achieve some results, he devised a cost-reduction and efficiency-enhancing plan.

The gist of it is that the budget originally allocated to temporary workers was halved, and Xu Hu was required to recruit even more temporary workers.

As a result, each temporary worker received less than fifty yuan a day.

Xu Hu was furious. The sorting work was already extremely hard, and not only did they not allocate more funds, they also reduced their treatment.

As the manager of the temporary workers, he argued with the leader for several days to prevent the temporary workers' hard-earned money from being deducted.

Finally, the leader made a harsh statement: if you can't do the job, you have to resign.

Xu Hu wouldn't tolerate his bad habits and announced his resignation on the spot.

After he finished speaking, all the workers present cursed the leader for being heartless.

They don't know how hard they work, they just boss them around.

They all said they would rather starve to death on the streets than contribute a single day of labor to the Little Bird Logistics Park.

Xu Nian listened quietly to their discussion without participating.

He's not one to curse; he'd rather take action than talk.

After the group had eaten and drunk their fill, Xu Hu suggested they go to a karaoke bar.

So the group went to a nearby karaoke bar.

Here, Xu Nian witnessed the diversity of human voices.

Everyone present was a rough, tone-deaf man.

They all sing by shouting, and their voices are all incredibly loud.

There was no skill involved, only emotion.

Qi Yu, as the only cultured person here, was finally able to sing a complete song.

"Xu Nian, what are you doing lying there like that?"

Xu Hu shouted at Xu Nian, who was hiding in the corner.

"They barely say a few words while eating, and they don't even sing a couple of songs."

"What, you think your mouth is all you need to eat?"

"Brother Tiger, I can't sing, so I won't make a fool of myself in front of everyone."

Xu Nian said somewhat awkwardly.

Of all the people present, he was only really familiar with Qi Yu and Xu Hu.

He just wanted to remain a nobody, to stay until the game ended and then leave.

"What are you saying? None of us brothers can sing!"

Xu Hu chuckled and pointed at the group of roughnecks present.

"You're all equally bad, neither of you're going to laugh at the other. If you come here and don't sing, what's the point of coming?"

The people around them joined in the commotion, urging Xu Nian to come up and sing a song.

With no other option, Xu Nian had to bite the bullet and go up to the song request stage.

But what song should we sing?

Xu Nian thought for a long time, but there was almost no song whose melody she could remember completely.

Suddenly, he remembered a piece of music that had been played on TV when he was working at a restaurant.

"Don't ask me where I come from."

My hometown is far away.

Why wander?

"Wandering far away."

"Wandering~"

......

A few lines of lyrics brought tears to the eyes of Xu Niansheng, who was only 14 years old at the time.

What was that song called again?

correct.

olive tree.
