"Okay, no more joking. Let's get down to business. Don't call me a traitor. Let's put it another way. If your mother is sick, do you think I should tell you the news?" Wang Xudong asked.
"this……"
"In other words, if your mother feels unwell and goes to the hospital, would you worry about her?"
"I……"
"So, by the same token, if you are sick, I should notify your mother. Whether you call me a traitor or a dishonest person, I will do it because it is my responsibility."
Wang Xudong sat leaning on the chair.
"Humph, you can always make a lot of sense out of anything that comes into your mouth."
"I have something to tell you." Wang Xudong said to Lin Xiaoya.
"What?"
"I already called your boss earlier."
"Call my boss? What for?" Lin Xiaoya was a little confused.
"I helped you resign to your boss, and your boss also told me that he has paid you all your salary at noon today, so you and the hotel are now completely cleared." Wang Xudong stood up and said
With.
"What? Quit? Wang Xudong, how could you do this?" Lin Xiaoya sat up from the bed excitedly and almost pulled the needle in her hand.
"Why are you so excited?"
"Why do you help me quit my job? When did I say that I was quitting my job? You call him quickly and tell him that I didn't quit my job and that I will go back to work tomorrow." Lin Xiaoya was almost roaring.
Wang Xudong smiled and asked: "What? Do you like this job so much?"
"This has nothing to do with whether you like it or not. I have told you many times. This is my chance to prove myself to you. It is also my chance to prove myself to myself. I said I must do it no matter what.
Months, even if I get seriously ill and die there, I will finish the month. This is my promise to you, and it is also the promise I make to myself. If I cannot finish it, I will even look down on myself. Wang Xudong, call me quickly.
!”
Wang Xudong sat back on the stool again, lit a cigarette and started smoking.
"Please be careful, this is a hospital and you are not allowed to smoke."
Wang Xudong just smiled.
"why are you laughing?"
"Let me ask you a question." Wang Xudong asked Lin Xiaoya.
"What?"
"Do you like your current life?" Wang Xudong asked.
"Ah? What do you mean?" Lin Xiaoya was a little confused by Wang Xudong's sudden question.
"If you were given a choice, would you choose to continue the hard, tired, unpopular but fulfilling life you are living now, or would you choose to continue living the life of luxury and luxury that you lived before?
, confused and ignorant, there is no difference between living a year and living a day, but what about living a comfortable and comfortable life? Tell me the truth, your deepest thoughts." Wang Xudong looked at Lin Xiaoya seriously and asked.
Lin Xiaoya was stunned by Wang Xudong's question. After a while, she raised her head and said: "If I had a choice, I certainly don't want to live such a tiring and miserable life. I'm not a born masochist. Why should I let it go?"
I have a good life, but I have to suffer here? I’m tired of living this kind of life, and I don’t want to live anymore.”
"You don't know what I eat every day. I have porridge and steamed buns for breakfast, and pickles made by myself in the kitchen. I eat staff meals for lunch and dinner. They say they are meat and vegetables, but in fact they are all vegetarian.
The difference between meat and vegetarian is that there are two more pieces of meat. Two pieces of meat, if more than a dozen people eat them together, what difference does it make if you put them in or not?"
"It's okay to eat poorly. The main reason is that I'm tired. It's at least after 10 o'clock when the guests have left in the evening. After 10 o'clock, I need to tidy up and clean up. After work, it's at least 11 o'clock. I went to the store to eat at 8:30 in the morning.
Breakfast, morning meeting at nine o'clock, and after the morning meeting, cleaning begins. Cleaning takes an hour every morning, starting around eleven o'clock, and then there is no rest for the day. The most important thing is that as long as the store opens for business, as
Waiters must stand and cannot sit. Do you know how tiring it is to stand for a day?"
"It's not a good place to live. You've seen where I live. What it's like. You have to queue up every day to go to the toilet. You feel like your bladder is going to explode. The same goes for washing your face and taking a shower. There's still hot water on such a cold day.
Sometimes. Wang Xudong, if you want to ask me if I like this kind of life, I can tell you clearly that I don't like it. Anyone who says they like someone is sick in the brain."
After Lin Xiaoya finished speaking, Wang Xudong did not speak and was still sitting there smoking a cigarette. However, Guo Yu, who was standing at the door, was a little disappointed.
"However, if I were asked to choose a life to live between my current life and my previous life, I would rather choose this life now." Lin Xiaoya continued.
"Why?" Wang Xudong raised his head and asked.
"As you said, what kind of life was I living before? There seems to be no difference between living a year and living a day. In fact, for me, let alone living a year, I feel that living a day is not the same as living a year after more than ten years.
There is no difference. For more than ten years, I never know why I am alive, nor do I know what I want to do with my life. In the final analysis, I have no idea what the meaning of my life is."
"I live in a state of ignorance every day, bored, you know? Bored to the core, so boring that I feel like committing suicide, so I want to find something new and exciting to do every day, otherwise, I
They all feel like they have no interest in life anymore. To outsiders, that feeling may seem like a life of extravagance, corruption or extravagance, but in fact it is not at all. If you have not experienced it, you will never understand the pain involved.
If you ask me to tell you, I can’t explain why.”
"I didn't think so before, but since I came out this time, I have discovered that real life is not like that. Just like now, although I am tired and miserable, I am happy because I am very excited every day.
I live a very energetic life, thinking that I can get an extra day's salary after working for one day, and I feel motivated. I think that I will get a commission for every glass of wine sold, and I start to be impulsive."
"Do you know when I am happiest? It was when my boss paid me my salary today. Although the total amount is only more than one thousand and less than two thousand yuan, in the past this amount of money was not enough to buy me a pair of shoes.
, I would not necessarily reach up to pick it up if it fell on the floor, but today, when I took the money, I almost cried with excitement. Although I had a cold and felt like dying, when I went back to sleep in bed, I fell asleep
I’m always laughing.”
"Moreover, for me, I can experience a new world every day, encounter a lot of new things every day, what happens in the store, and listen to the people who work together telling their stories, I think this feeling is very
Well, I feel very satisfied and happy every day when I sleep in bed tired. I don’t know why, maybe this is what you call fulfillment.” (To be continued)
