I feel like the woman is a little sentimental, and she seems to have a lot of things that she can't find anyone to talk to.

That's why when a stranger comes around, a woman will be so eager to express her inner thoughts.

Alone in the corner, with a miniature cake and no one even singing happy birthday to myself.

This scene inevitably makes people sympathize.

But the woman didn't seem to have finished speaking. She looked up at Gu Chen and said with a melancholy look on her face: "It's not that I didn't walk to the next destination, I just walked halfway and couldn't continue walking, so I fell back to the starting point.

"

"I also know that there is no right path in life. It will still happen in the future, and you will find that the path is not working until you are halfway through. But it cannot be said that it is completely in vain. At least you know how to do better next time. Although I know

It may not be useful.”

"I think you should make more friends." Gu Chen said.

"No, no." The woman seemed frightened and quickly shrank back: "Friends? Colleagues at work are not suitable to be friends. They are very dangerous."

"Then you don't interact with others, and you close yourself off." Lu Weiwei felt that she had no choice, and couldn't help but said: "Although there is competition among colleagues, it is not as terrible as you said."

"As long as you treat people sincerely, you can still make some good friends."

Glancing at the people around her, Lu Weiwei said again: "Did you see that? We are colleagues, and our relationship is very good. If you can make some friends like us in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, maybe you won't be like this

Too sentimental, don’t you think?”

"It's harmful!" The woman sighed faintly and shook her head: "Maybe you are special. After all, the most annoying thing in life is repeating the same mistakes. Not everyone gets along well like you."

"I think..." Yuan Shasha hesitated for a few seconds, and then said openly: "I think you have a personality problem? I mean, how to get along with others?"

"I don't know." The woman continued to shake her head, but also looked hesitant: "I don't know if it counts, maybe there is no sunshine in my spiritual world."

Looking up at Lu Weiwei and Yuan Shasha carefully, the woman also said lightly: "Later, I also discovered that in fact, the most common setting for heroines in Japanese and Korean dramas is to fall into hardship and grievance at the beginning, as if they have been abandoned by the entire life."

"Before the wonderful ending, there are always the disappointments of falling out of love and losing one's job. I think I am just like a TV series. Only through such ups and downs can life be interesting."

"So I encouraged myself secretly, thinking, look, this is how heroines act."

"I...I advise you to stop indulging in this kind of drama, TV series..."

"I know, you may refute me and say that TV series are all lies and that real life cannot be like that."

Before Lu Weiwei could finish speaking, the woman interrupted directly.

Lu Weiwei was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

However, the woman added at this time: "But I think, since such a script has been written and is widely loved, doesn't it prove that at least many people have experienced, or are currently experiencing, such a dark moment?"

"After all, the screenwriter may have experienced it himself, so that he can write those delicate plots and insights. Isn't the success of the final work the arrival of good results? At least we can look forward to it that way, right?"

Looking at the expectant look in the woman's eyes, Lu Weiwei couldn't bear to hurt her.

Perhaps it is because of her withdrawn personality that the woman talks nonsense.

But when I think about it, this woman works in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital and is also a medical staff.

But the medical staff looked so insane, Lu Weiwei was really worried about those patients.

So Lu Weiwei picked up the candle on the table and said with a slight smile: "Let's not say anything else. Let's sing a birthday song to you and wish you a happy birthday."

"Uh... yes, I wish you a happy birthday and we will sing you a birthday song." Seeing Lu Weiwei say this, Yuan Shasha quickly picked up the candles on the table.

The woman suddenly grinned.

It seems that if someone celebrates his birthday, even singing a happy birthday song is good.

Then Gu Chen also joined in...

Several people put more than 20 candles on the mini cake for her, but they couldn't find a lighter.

The woman smiled lightly: "The reason I didn't light a candle just now was because I didn't have a lighter."

"Then you didn't tell me earlier?" After hearing what the woman said, Lu Weiwei glanced at Officer Wang who was sitting not far away and asked: "Old Wang, did you bring your lighter?"

"Hey~"

In a beautiful parabola, Lu Weiwei caught the lighter thrown by Officer Wang in the air with one hand.

Everyone lit the candles and began to sing birthday songs around the woman.

The woman put her hands together, squinted her eyes and made a wish for a moment, then blew out all the candles.

"Happy birthday."

Everyone offered their blessings together.

The woman laughed with tears in her eyes and said, "Thank you. Actually, I really don't care if I can't celebrate my birthday. The reason why I bought a cake is just to commemorate the previous days at school."

"But in the end, I also knew that I no longer have a happy birthday after turning 20, simply because I am one year older and I have not grown into the strong person I am inside."

After sniffing, the woman continued: "And the time is decreasing minute by minute. I haven't been able to cope with life with ease, accept the growth of age, adapt to the maturity and ability, and have a close companionship.

I can only regard it as a wish for myself in the future.”

"So I hope that you at that time really...happy birthday." Gu Chen said.

"Thank you." The woman nodded slightly.

At this moment, Officer Wang shouted from downstairs.

When everyone saw it, he had already occupied an excellent position.

Lu Weiwei turned to the woman and said with a faint smile: "We are going to eat, how about we go together?"

"No, thank you." The woman showed a long-lost smile.

At this moment, it seemed that she was really happy.

Since everyone originally wanted to eat, they didn't stay too long at the woman's place.

At this time, Officer Wang saw everyone coming downstairs and said with joy on his face: "Fortunately, I am as smart as I am. If I hadn't predicted that the guests at this table were leaving, I probably wouldn't have been able to get a seat."

"Then I have to thank you, Lao Wang." Lu Weiwei also breathed a sigh of relief after sitting down.

Officer Wang asked: "What were you talking about just now? I heard you were still singing happy birthday."

"A woman celebrated her birthday, and she felt quite lonely sitting there alone. She probably got emotional over the scene, so she cried secretly." Yuan Shasha glanced at the second floor, and then added: "So we sang a birthday blessing song to her. This is

Senior Brother Wang’s lighter.”

After finishing her words, Yuan Shasha handed the lighter back to Officer Wang.

Officer Wang chuckled and said, "I guess they are people who have just graduated and started working."

"Huh?" Gu Chen's eyes were startled, and he said with a faint smile: "How does Senior Brother Wang know?"

"How do I know? I'm a veteran police officer. I can tell what's going on with this kind of woman at a glance."

"Either life is unsatisfactory and I feel wronged at work, or I am too lonely and get emotional."

"When I looked at her age, she looked like she was in her early 20s. I thought she was a newcomer who had just graduated and had just started working."

"Okay, Lao Wang." Seeing that Officer Wang was right, Lu Weiwei was also quite surprised and said: "She said she works in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital, and because it's her birthday today, her mother sent her a blessing text message."

"Because she used to celebrate her birthdays at school, and she was always accompanied by her good sisters. Now she is alone, a little sick, and will soon have to work the night shift alone. Thinking about it makes her very sad, so she couldn't help but cry."

"That's what I'm saying." After ordering the meal, Officer Wang said with a faint smile: "Generally, these young people who have just joined the workforce have weak ability to withstand pressure. Whenever they encounter some grievances at work, they will hide alone.

It’s normal to get up and cry secretly.”

"If you want to be lively, you might as well go move bricks. The construction site is so lively, but you are not working anywhere." Lu Weiwei looked around, expecting her hot pot to be served soon.

Gu Chen smiled lightly and shook his head: "To be honest, the monthly salary that many of us earn is not as high as that of real bricklayers, so don't call yourself a bricklayer all day long."

"That's right." Officer Wang also agreed: "Compared with other people who move bricks, it's far behind."

"Some people are lucky enough to have money and time after working, some people have time but not money, and some people have money but not time."

"And some people are very powerful. They have neither time nor money, so we must cherish jobs that make money but are not happy, and we must cherish jobs that do not make money but are happy.

"

"Why?" Lu Weiwei asked.

"Why?" Officer Wang raised his eyebrows and said with a slight smile: "Because most people's jobs are neither profitable nor happy."

"So that's it?" Lu Weiwei, who understood instantly, suddenly felt that her job was actually quite good.

Yuan Shasha asked out of curiosity: "Brother Wang, how should we judge whether our work is good or not?"

"Well..." Officer Wang hesitated for a moment, then explained: "It's not difficult at all. In fact, the method to judge whether your work is good or not is very simple. There is only one method, torture from the soul."

"Just imagine, if you have children and they grow up, would you let them take over your duties?"

Yuan Shasha scratched her head and thought, falling into deep thought.

Gu Chen smiled faintly: "Actually, a good job is probably the kind that doesn't affect your daily routine or family reunion, and can also support your family, right?"

"Yes." Officer Wang waggled his finger and said involuntarily: "Gu Chen, you summed up this point very well. A good job should probably look like this, but this kind of job is very rare. Generally, people who achieve financial freedom,

They don’t care about their work at all, they work purely as a hobby.”

"Does Junior Brother Gu count?" Lu Weiwei said: "After all, if Junior Brother Gu doesn't become a policeman, he will have to go back and inherit the family business."
