"By the way, my name is Zhuo Qianyun. You can call me Sis Zhuo. What's your name?" the boss asked.
"I'm Ling Yiran. Sis Zhuo, you can just call me Yiran," said Ling Yiran, and all at once, it seemed as if the gloom in her eyes was dispelled.
Zhuo Qianyun looked at Ling Yiran, her eyes flickering.
Ling Yiran left after leaving her name and contact information. A woman in her 50s went over to Zhuo Qianyun. "What were you talking about with that woman?"
"She just applied to be our food delivery rider, and I agreed to let her come to work tomorrow," said Zhuo Qianyun.
"A woman her age applying to be a rider? There must be something wrong with her. Don't girls like her usually get an office job?" This rider job paid low wages, and only people in their 50s were asking about it these days. However, they resented the low pay and long hours, so they refused to join.
"She has a criminal record for killing someone with her car," said Zhuo Qianyun. "I think she's nice. She was kind to Lil Yan, so I don’t think she’s a bad person. The car crash must have been an accident."
"You!" Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhuo could not help scolding, "Haven't you suffered enough? Why do you trust people so easily? If you can differentiate a nice person with your eyes, then there wouldn't be bad people in this world! You shouldn't let someone with a criminal record work here. If she killed someone while delivering orders, are we supposed to pay on her behalf?"
Zhuo Qianyun sighed. "Mom, I just want to give her a chance. It seems to me that she really needs the job."
"A chance? Didn't they give you a chance? Lil Yan still needs to cure his ear, and we're short of money!" Mrs. Zhuo said angrily.
Zhuo Qianyun gave a wry smile and said, "It’s exactly because no one gave me a chance before that I... want to give her a chance all the more. After all… I've been to prison too."
Mrs. Zhuo could not help sighing at this and said nothing more.
