"Um, manager, I have work to do first. Let's catch up when we have time." Sun Jun lowered his head in self-doubt, not daring to look at Zhang Xiaoting again, as it would only make him feel more inferior.
Zhang Xiaoting was taken aback by his words. She clearly wanted to continue reminiscing with her fellow alumni. Her pink lips murmured softly, "You go back first, and we'll chat about campus life another time."
Sun Jun breathed a sigh of relief, afraid of angering the manager yet also afraid of not being allowed to leave. Finally, he could leave this place. He didn't want to stay for a moment, even though the place was good and had a manager with an unparalleled appearance.
"What am I, a poor loser, daydreaming about? Stop dreaming. Do I still want a toad to eat swan meat?" Sun Jun walked outside with a dejected face.
"Wait a moment, Sun Jun."
Sun Jun turned around in confusion, only to see Zhang Xiaoting smiling at him. "You must be tired from running up here. I have an apple for you to eat."
Zhang Xiaoting is holding a bright red apple in her hand, as red as a heart.
Sun Jun's heart was beating violently, the heart that he had forcibly suppressed before was now starting to rebel. He hid behind the door, clutching his chest in pain, with cold sweat on his forehead.
Looking at the apple she gave him, he unexpectedly couldn't help but cry. "Why am I so useless! Why do I have to see you again at 27!"
He really wanted to cry his heart out here, but he didn't even have the courage to cry. Doing so would only make him more embarrassed and more looked down upon. A man sheds tears only when he reaches the point of heartbreak.
Sun Jun returned to the office with a cold expression, and his colleagues along the way were all frightened by his gloomy aura.
"Hey, brother Sun, what's wrong with you?"
"Sun Jun, won't be criticized by the general manager, right?"
"No, the general manager is a beautiful woman and very kind. There must be something else going on."
No matter what his colleagues said, Sun Jun remained silent. After returning to his own workstation, he opened the computer, the keyboard clacking loudly. Then he went to the printer to take a piece of paper.
"Brother Sun, what's wrong with you..." Liu Miao asked cautiously. Sun Jun remained cold and didn't speak.
"Sun Jun, what's wrong with you? You went to the general manager's office and came back with this dead look. Let me tell you, our general manager is a rare good boss. Don't give me that gloomy face!" Xu Xue said sternly. In the company, she was one of Zhang Xiaoting's trusted aides, a key member under her command.
Sun Jun Holding a piece of paper in front of her, "I quit! What's with the old lady? I've been tolerating you for a long time. I've been in this lousy company for years and haven't learned anything useful. I've always been doing odd jobs. What did I do to deserve this? I'm not doing it anymore, and I won't put up with your nonsense in the future!"
He vented all the grievances he had accumulated over the years in one go. This left Xu Xue stunned, but it also angered her.
"Okay, so you want to resign, huh? Don't regret it when you leave, I'm warning you!"
"Regret my foot! I'll regret it if I don't leave. I've wasted several years of my youth here, with no raise in salary, no improvement in skills. Why should I stay here?"
Sun JunPacking up his things, he didn't have much, just a cup and a laptop.
Xu XueApproved his resignation on the spot, arranged for a special exit, so he could take the money and leave now.
Sun JunI quit my job and walked out of this skyscraper feeling very small, as inconspicuous as a speck of dust.
With a monthly salary of only five thousand inside, no future, and encountering the campus goddess from my school days, this contrast directly crushed him psychologically.
Zhang Xiaoting said that it's impossible to chat about campus life with him in the future. The age gap between them is so big that Sun Jun feels inferior standing next to her, so how can they communicate.
"Let's go, let's go. If I hadn't run into you, I might have wasted a few more years here."
Sun JunChoose to walk back to the rental house. The place he rented is only a dozen kilometers away from here. Looking at the bustling city streets along the way, couples walk hand in hand with happy smiles on their faces. He is the only one wandering in this vast city like a floating duckweed, unable to find his place.
Perhaps only the corners of the city are where he can survive, filled with cockroaches, rats, and piles of stinking garbage. The air is filled with a pungent smell...
In a desolate mountain, two figures, one fat and one thin, are pacing anxiously in place, accompanied by a white horse.
"Second Senior Brother, what should we do? Master has been captured by a monster!" A bearded, dark-faced young man said to a strange figure with a pig nose, pig ears, and a big belly.
The strange figure impatiently replied, "How would I, Old Pig, know? Not to criticize you, Junior Brother Sa, but how did you take care of the master? I just went out to relieve myself, and when I came back, the master was gone."
"Second Senior Brother, let's stop arguing for now and focus on rescuing our master first!" Junior Brother Sa said, his face turning red.
"How can the two of us rescue our master? That's just sending ourselves to our deaths! Let's wait for the eldest senior brother to come back," Second Senior Brother said, sitting down on a rock and pulling out a hidden roasted chicken to gnaw on.
Junior Brother Sa is spinning around in place in a hurry.
Before long, a strange man with golden fur all over his body and a pair of clairvoyant eyes flew over here on a cloud. He was holding a basin of vegetarian food that he had just received from a nearby farmhouse.
"Senior Brother, you're back!" Junior Brother Sa hurriedly surrounded him.
"Hey, Junior Brother Sa, don't worry. Let me rest for a while before we divide the food."
"Brother Ho, I'm hungry. Let's eat first before we go save Master," the Second Senior Brother said as he leaned in to grab the bowl of rice.
Brother Ho dodged him, causing him to miss and kicked him in the rear, saying, "Get out of the way, you pig. Let Master eat first, then we can eat."
Junior Brother Sa was a bit slow-witted and when he got anxious, he could hardly speak. After struggling for a while, he finally managed to say, "Big... Senior... Brother, Master has been... captured!"
"What!" Brother Ho's bowl of food fell to the ground with a thud. In a panic, the Second Senior Brother rushed over to lick the food, snuffling it with his nose and making snorting sounds. "Don't waste it! This is all precious white rice!"
"You pig, stop eating and come with me to save our master."
The three senior brothers used the skill of riding clouds and summoning mist to attack the monster's lair.
The master of the three is a bald monk in a red robe, who is currently surrounded by three Great Demons. The three Great Demons are eyeing the stewed Tang Monk in the pot, drooling profusely.
"So fragrant, too fragrant. Once we eat this Tang Monk's flesh, we will become immortal," said a creature with the head of a lion and the body of a human.
"Big brother, the disciple of Tang Monk is none other than Sun Wukong, who caused a great disturbance in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago. We must be on guard against him!"
"Don't worry, second brother. I have a treasure that can subdue that Monkey King, guaranteeing that he won't come back." A strange man with the head and beak of an eagle, covered in feathers, said.
Three senior brothers quickly arrived at Shi Tou Mountain. Along the way, the terrifying sights made them shudder, as if they had entered a living hell. The hills were covered with skeletons, bones scattered like scales, and human heads turned into filthy patches of felt. Flesh and skin rotted into mud and dust. Human tendons were entwined in the trees, dry and shiny like silver.
"Elder brother, this place is so terrifying. Let's go back and discuss our plans," said the second senior brother, who was terrified by the gruesome scene. Even as the Marshal of the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, he had never seen such a terrifying and bloody sight.
"No! If we are late, Master will be eaten!" Brother Ho quickened his pace and arrived at the outskirts of Shi Tou Mountain.
He pulled a fine strand of hair from his ear, which instantly transformed into a massive staff. With a powerful swing, he struck Shi Tou Mountain, shattering its formation and turning the small demons hiding inside into mush.
Shi Tou Mountain Three Great Demons came out to meet them, and the three senior brothers fought together, causing the sky to change color for a while, with dark clouds gathering and thunder rolling.
"Monkey, don't be arrogant. Watch as I use my magic weapon to subdue you!" The three kings took out a bottle emitting a chaotic aura.
"This treasure is called the Yin-Yang Dual Qi Flask. Once you are sucked into it, in less than a moment, no matter how powerful your skills are, they will all turn into pus.
"Yin-Yang Dual Qi Flask, come to me!"
The Yin-Yang Energy Vessel emitted boundless power, releasing a purple divine light towards the three senior brothers, attempting to suck them into the vessel.
"I am the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong. There is no treasure in heaven or earth that can contain me!"
"Monster, take this from me!"
Brother Ho's Golden Staff shone brightly, becoming enormous as it swung toward the Yin-Yang Energy Bottle. In an instant, two massive forces collided, shattering the very fabric of space.
"Not good, it's a spatial rift. They can't be sucked in, or else they will be sent to the boundless and distant unknown place.
But it's too late, the spatial rift has sucked them all in."
"Don't go! Miss Gao, I haven't come back to marry you yet—please don't marry someone else!"
Sun JunAlmost home, there are very few people on this road because the environment is so poor and there are very few residents, especially at this time. The houses nearby are all run-down, looking like they're at least twenty years old, and the road is full of potholes and dark puddles. If you accidentally step in one, you're in big trouble. "Hmm, what should I do next?"
As he walked with his head down, suddenly, behind him, a spatial crack appeared, and he faintly heard, "The monster is going to get a beating from me, Sun Wukong." Then he passed out.
