Chapter 10 A Young Man's Journey
Chapter 10 A Young Man's Journey
Taking out his phone, Su Jie scanned 1,000 yuan for each of the women. "I won't take you back. This money is an extra bonus. Use it to buy something nice to eat."
The women were delighted to receive the 1,000 yuan transfer. "Thank you, boss. Please remember to contact us again if you need this kind of service next time."
"must!"
Su Jie smiled and nodded, "Wishing you good health and a happy life!"
"Thank you, boss!"
"Boss, you really know how to talk!"
Watching the older women walk towards the bus stop not far away, Su Jie also took out his phone to call a Didi to go to the nearest subway station.
But when he opened his phone, a lot of messages popped up on WeChat from his colleagues with whom he had a good relationship.
"Engineer Su, you're awesome!"
"Cool!"
"Idol!"
"Brother Jie, I'll treat you to a meal sometime."
……
Looking at these messages, Su Jie smiled but chose not to reply.
If fate allows them to meet again, he will treat them to a meal.
If things aren't going well for him, he can lend a hand.
[The Brave Challenge round has ended. The host has gained 100 points of pleasure and received the blessing of the God of Bravery, rewarding him with ten million yuan!]
[The host is completely satisfied, his pleasure level has reached its peak, and he has received the blessing of the God of Bravery—A Young Man's Journey!]
[Youthful Journey: Flowers may bloom again, but youth never returns. Whenever you feel down, you'll quickly regain your youthful spirit!]
Seeing the 100 points of pleasure and the reward of 10 million, Su Jie's heart trembled slightly.
This was the first time he had ever seen so much money, and the last time he had heard of so much money was on Douyin (TikTok).
But when he saw the extra 100 points of pleasure, he was stunned.
A youthful journey?
A youthful spirit?
For some inexplicable reason, Su Jie felt an urge to cry when he saw these words.
Looking back on the first half of my life, perhaps the happiest time was when I received my university acceptance letter.
Although he only got into a second-tier university, the whole family was very happy!
Because this is the first college student in their family.
My cousins either went to college or only graduated from junior high school, and entered the workforce early.
When did he start to feel unhappy?
It was when he realized that no matter what you do in this world, you need money!
In the year or so since graduating from university and entering the workforce, he has changed companies and had several jobs.
From initially leaving work because I was unhappy, to later choosing to silently endure it.
A little numb, battered and bruised by the big melting pot of society.
Everything, all for the sake of making a living.
Being born is easy, living is easy, but making a living is not easy.
Life requires money!
His parents are getting old, and he must grow up and take over their responsibilities.
He can't just think about his own feelings; he has to consider his parents and his girlfriend.
He needs to earn money, he needs to earn a lot of money, to fulfill his responsibilities as a husband and a son.
Taking a deep breath, Su Jie looked at the ten million yuan that had just been deposited into his mobile bank account and felt better than ever before.
What is youthful spirit?
They were full of vigor and high spirits!
It's unruly!
They are ignorant of their own limitations!
My fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven!
It's the arrogance that you're sure to succeed and stand out from the crowd in the future!
He still remembers what he said when he was a child: he must be filial to his parents, buy them a house and a car, and let them live a good life.
But after entering the workforce and encountering setbacks everywhere, he finally came to terms with reality.
It's like a martial artist whose heart meridian is damaged, becoming sickly and losing the sparkle in their eyes!
But her parents continued to care as always, calling to ask about her condition time and time again.
Do you have enough money on you?
"Let Mom know if you run out!"
Every time he asked, he felt like crying.
A scrap of society, a source of pride for parents.
A son travels a thousand miles, but reports only good news, not bad.
If you can handle it yourself, never tell your family.
Because if Mom hears this, she will also be very sad!
Therefore, he didn't tell anyone about the grievances he suffered in society over the past year.
Watching his childhood sweetheart girlfriend gradually drift away, she wouldn't contact him even once a month.
These were all invisible mountains weighing on him, spurring him on and turning him into someone he didn't like.
Seeing a straight tree branch on the green belt, Su Jie went over and picked it up.
He swung it forcefully.
"call out--"
A fine horse knows its future is long, so it needs no whip to spur it on.
One day, with the wind at his back, he will break through countless mountains!
In a daze, he seemed to see himself as a child.
He took off his coat and draped it over his shoulders, only buttoning the top button, and then ran happily like a mighty general!
"Charge!"
"Hahaha--"
With a shout, Su Jie suddenly started running while laughing!
The security guards who had been staring at him from a distance were somewhat puzzled.
"What's wrong with this kid?"
"Are you crazy?"
"Are you out of your mind?"
"He seems really happy!"
……
I kept running and running until I couldn't run anymore and then I stopped.
Although he was very tired, Su Jie felt as if he had truly come back to life.
That young man with lofty ambitions and no fear of setbacks!
It is said that youthful spirit is a non-renewable quality, but he has it back now!
He took out his phone and made a call.
The call connected quickly.
"Hey, Xiao Jie!"
"Mom, I love you!"
"what?"
Wang Mei was startled and almost dropped her phone. "What's wrong?"
"Hahaha--"
Su Jie laughed loudly, "I just suddenly missed you so much, and wanted to hear your voice!"
Hearing her son's genuine happiness, Wang Mei smiled too, "Silly boy, you almost scared your mother to death just now!"
Su Jie asked, "Mom, do you remember what I said when I was little?"
Wang Mei shook her head. "What did you say?"
Su Jie said loudly, "When I grow up, I will definitely make sure my parents live a good life and take good care of them."
"Ha ha--"
Wang Mei couldn't help but laugh when the topic came up, "You were only a few years old then, I didn't expect you to remember!"
"I've always remembered."
Su Jie's eyes welled up with tears. "It's just that when I grew up and started working, the pressure was immense, and my monthly salary wasn't much, so I found it hard to talk about it."
"Last year during Chinese New Year, I didn't have much money, and I couldn't even buy you a new set of clothes!"
"Your father and I don't want you to be exceptionally talented, nor do we want you to be extremely wealthy."
Wang Mei smiled and said, "As long as you stay healthy and safe for the rest of your life, that's all that matters."
"mom!"
Su Jie's voice was still loud, "I will definitely give you and Dad a good life, I will definitely make you proud!"
Sensing a significant change in her son since she left yesterday, Wang Mei smiled and agreed, "Then your dad and I will wait!"
"Just you wait!"
Su Jie laughed and said, "I won't call Dad. Just tell him I love him too!"
After hanging up the phone, Wang Mei couldn't help but cry.
But as she cried, she suddenly laughed!
She didn't know why her son suddenly made that call.
But she felt that she had such a son.
It's all worth it, even if it takes a lifetime of effort!
Wiping away the remaining tears on her face, she quickly went outside and smiled at her husband, who was chatting with the neighbor, saying, "Honey, Xiao Jie just called and said he loves you very much!"
Su Yuan was taken aback. "Is this brat out of money again?"
"No, that's not true."
Wang Mei walked over with a smile, excitedly saying, "He just said he wants to take good care of us, make us live a good life, and be our pride!"
A neighbor suddenly remarked, "Su Jie was quite clever when he was little!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Mei's smile instantly froze. "Su Yuan, let's go back!"
