Because the competition in the food delivery industry was at a critical stage, Xie Wanghe and the other two stayed in the flower street for only two days during the Chinese New Year before hurrying back to Beijing to work. Xia Fenghua stayed a little longer, lingering for two more days until the fifth day of the lunar new year before returning to Beijing. He Wenjie, however, had no intention of going back so early; he stayed with Ma Siyi until the Lantern Festival had passed, and only reluctantly returned to Beijing because Ma Siyi had to head back to Italy.
After seeing Ma Siyi off, He Wenjie unenthusiastically went to work at the express delivery station, only to be surprised to find Xie Wanghe there. "Well, what a rare visitor," He Wenjie said. "You're supposed to be holding down the fort at the company—what brings you out here? Did you finally figure things out?"
"We don't all have your luxury, being able to stay in our hometown all the way through the fifteenth. I bet if Siyi wasn't leaving, you'd have stayed until next year. I didn't know you were working today, or else I would have bought an extra ticket."
