Liu Feifei worked until two in the morning, finally ending a day of work. Even the fruits loaded onto the truck were done. She held the seventy yuan the boss gave her, with a few extra for a late-night snack.
She had ridden with her uncle when coming here. With no bike to get home, she could only run back.
In the past, before her grandfather fell ill, he would wait for her late at night and ride an electric bike to take her home.
"It's so late, little girl, let me give you a lift!" the boss's wife kindly suggested.
"No need, Auntie, I'm quick on my feet. I can run home fast."
"How can that be? In the middle of the night, it's too dangerous for a young girl like you." The boss's wife insisted, still worried.
"Auntie, do you know who I am? I'm so fierce that no car could catch up with me, and my home isn't far from here."
Liu Feifei didn't want to trouble others. It was already too late when she got off work, and the boss's wife was also very tired.
"Goodbye, boss's wife."
