My name is Zhou Yi. I’m a food delivery rider. My life’s ambition is to pay off my electric scooter loan.
But I have a secret: whenever people argue, I can absorb their negative energy and briefly transform into a superhero with a massive boost to both fighting ability and intelligence. The catch is that afterward, I’m completely drained and need chocolate to stay alive.
My life used to consist of just three things:
Taking orders, making deliveries, and avoiding conflict.
Until I met them.
Qin Yue: “Based on your blood sugar fluctuations, you fainted from hypoglycemia. I recommend you stay in the hospital for observation for twenty-four hours.” (Zhou Yi: Doctor, stop staring at me.)
Tangtang: “Hey, everyone in the livestream! Today we’re following that urban delivery hero! Oh no, a cat scratched him! Quick, close-up! Let’s title it ‘Urban Hero Versus the Three-Colored Bully Cat: The Ultimate Showdown!’” (Zhou Yi: I was feeding the cat! Feeding it!)
Xia Wanxing: “Director, I don’t think this scene where the princess kisses the guard by force feels realistic enough. Zhou Yi, come over. Let’s rehearse it. Don’t worry, this won’t make it into the final cut. I’ll keep it for myself.” (Zhou Yi: Director! This is workplace harassment! I’m filing a complaint!)
Shen Mo: “You happened to be passing by the robbery at the convenience store in the West District last night, happened to pin the suspect down with your delivery bag, and happened to notice that the mud on his shoes came from a construction site in the eastern suburbs. Come in and give a statement. How about becoming a specially appointed consultant? You’ll get full benefits.” (Zhou Yi: I’m just a delivery guy! A delivery guy!)
Lin Wei: “You helped my client mediate her divorce and even found her a new job. That’s humanitarian assistance beyond the terms of our contract, so this coupon is perfectly valid payment. Take it.” (Zhou Yi: Is it weird for a lawyer to give someone a coupon?)
