The Three-Life Stone

After get off work, Yu Zhaozhao turned on his cell phone.

Shen Xingzhi: Are you off work?

Let's have dinner together. It's my treat.

Take a walk after eating.

Yu Zhaozhao: No, I’ll treat you another day.

Shen Xingzhi: "Angry Cat Expression"

Yu Zhaozhao: "Cat Laughing Expression"

Yu Zhaozhao walked and looked for a while but saw no news, so he put away his phone and walked out.

I walked to the parking lot and looked for the location of the electric car. When I got closer, I found that the person standing next to it was Shen Xingzhi, who seemed to be smiling.

"Well, I don't like eating alone all the time, and I'm saving money now. I don't have the ability to make a mutual appointment, so I'm not going." Yu Zhaozhao responded awkwardly, never expecting that anyone was here.

Apart from work, Yu Zhaozhao rarely interacts with others in private. He can be arrogant on the phone, can talk a lot and type a lot of words, and has time to think about rejection, but he becomes timid when he meets a real person.

"It's okay. Let's go to your house for dinner. It should be okay for you to take me on your electric bike, right?"

Yu Zhaozhao nodded, put on his helmet and rode away. Shen Xingzhi sat behind him, feeling the speed of more than 20 yards. He smiled faintly while enjoying the wind. It was good to go slower.

When they arrived at the community, Yu Zhaozhao swiped his card and entered with Shen Xingzhi one after another. When they went upstairs, Yu Zhaozhao opened the door, skillfully took out two frozen lunch boxes from the refrigerator, and put them in the microwave.

"Just two servings? Your son won't eat any?"

"He can do it himself. He's usually already eaten it."

Yu Zhaozhao opened a glass of Orange Juice and poured two glasses. Shen Xingzhi took a sip of the bottled orange juice, which tasted okay after being chilled.

Then the microwave made a "ding" sound.

Yu Zhaozhao turned on the TV and Shen Xingzhi watched quietly. Yu Zhaozhao searched for the cartoon [Doraemon], clicked play, and took out a rag to take out the lunch box.

Shen Xingzhi quietly watched Yu Zhaozhao's lifestyle, then went to the bathroom to wash his hands, came out to look at Doraemon, opened the lunch box, and looked at Yu Zhaozhao again. This contrast... Shen Xingzhi laughed.

Shen Xingzhi didn't find the lunch box very tasty, but it tasted pretty good. Not a lot of seasoning was added. It was just an ordinary home-cooked dish. The taste didn't differ much after being frozen and then heated up, so it was edible.

Shen Xingzhi experienced the atmosphere of ordinary people eating and felt it seemed okay.

Shen Xingzhi recalled that eating used to be either a routine or eating out.

There was a time when my girlfriend cooked and we ate on the sofa. No matter whether the food was good or not, she always expected me to praise her after finishing the meal. Why did we break up later? She said she was too busy.

In the early days, everything tasted delicious. At that time, there was no help from family, and everything needed to be accumulated slowly by oneself. It was common to have a full meal and a hungry meal after work. He sighed that even if he didn't have time to cook, he could still eat the food he cooked. That time seemed to have passed a century, and Shen Xingzhi seemed to have returned to that time, feeling that he was eating the food cooked by someone.

After dinner, Yu Zhaozhao went to wash the dishes. Shen Xingzhi came to Yu Le's room. As a person who had experienced it, Shen Xingzhi felt the rebelliousness of the boy at once. According to his observation, Yu Zhaozhao could not suppress it.

Shen Xingzhi was making a judgment in his mind. Maybe Yu Zhaozhao thought she was enough on her own, and she also had lingering fears...

Shen Xingzhi's phone rang, and the note was Lao Qin.

A short text message interrupted Shen Xingzhi's thoughts: Our President Shen is so fond of helping others recently?

Shen Xingzhi put away his phone, well, it’s fun to help others.

Shen Xingzhi wanted to expand Yu Zhaozhao's social circle and guide Yu Le to move forward. As one of the few friends in this city, he had just arrived in this city and was one of the few friends there.

That misunderstanding at the beginning, what a wonderful fate.

Life is short and countless people are passing by. Take a moment to cherish these few encounters.

Do you believe in past lives and present lives?

A feeling that makes you look for excuses even if it seems unreasonable.

Yu Zhaozhao suddenly received a resignation report at work, which was originally bad news. At the same time, news came from the gym that a fitness studio had just opened, and the shareholders there took a fancy to her steadiness and stability and invited her to work part-time.

After all the goings and goings, fortunately there was no funding loophole.

The leader on the other side was willing to pay double the salary for the person he was leaving. No matter what the reason was, Yu Zhaozhao didn't want to make things difficult, so he at least gave him the most basic decency.

Regardless of whether this matter makes sense or not, as long as things are going well, then just part ways amicably and just think that you didn't do well enough. Otherwise, even if some relative of a leader comes to the company, you won't be the one to be kicked out.

I got twice the salary here, and opened a studio there. The studio environment is high-end and the people serving are relatively wealthy, so not many people come here.

Both of his current jobs are in the fitness field. Yu Zhaozhao takes time out to take out his notes to improve his knowledge and continues to watch teaching videos, hoping that this part-time job can continue. Apart from the uncertainty, the only thing he has is that he can spend less time earning about the same amount of money as before.

Once you've adapted and are comfortable with it, you can find something else to do.

Yu Zhaozhao did not find other lucrative jobs. Instead, she followed Shen Xingzhi to the barbecue stall he went to when he was a student, and the place where he indulged in feasting and revelry when he was confused, the school he went to as a child, where he still has a deep impression of a teacher, and an old house that hides all the bitterness and pain.

Shen Xingzhi said that was where his dream began. It was a rental house where he used to live. The tenant was an elderly person. In order to let the elderly person enjoy his old age and to keep the house, Shen Xingzhi bought the house. When he felt life was difficult, he would stay there for a few hours, telling himself to move forward in life and not forget his original intention.

After Yu Zhaozhao met Shen Xingzhi, Yu Le became a little strange, but this strangeness was developing in a good way.

Yu Zhaozhao thought that her child had grown up and was very pleased. She had more motivation to go to work every morning. Everything was still moving in a good direction. The only thing was that the debt weighed on Yu Zhaozhao's shoulders, making her feel a little breathless. Money could be paid off and nothing could crush her.

After Yu Zhaozhao learned about Shen Xingzhi's past, she realized that his current achievements were the result of a lot of hard work that others have not seen. She also understood that no one has it easy, and that one should not always compare oneself with others. Everyone is unique, and no matter where one is born, she has her meaning.

Shen Xingzhi's life is considered successful by others.

At the age of thirty, some people have achieved something, while others are heavily in debt.

Shen Xingzhi's family was okay, but the family environment was not good. He came from a divorced family, and his life was in dire straits after his stepmother gave birth to a son. This made Shen Xingzhi more independent at an early age.

After several years of frustration and confusion while studying, Shen Xingzhi became depressed. After cheering up, he began to use his study time to develop small games and create his own media.

When Shen Xingzhi achieved some success, he was arrogant, conceited, and cold-hearted for a few years.

I had a low point when I first came out into the world due to the pressure of reality. After I became successful, I looked back and still felt like something was missing.

After the high school entrance examination, Yu Le returned home with a metal tank. Yu Zhaozhao didn't want to doubt Yu Le, but the workmanship of the metal tank didn't look cheap, and Yu Le didn't have the money to buy it.

Yu Zhaozhao was thinking about how to ask the child about this without causing misunderstanding. Shen Xingzhi came in and directly answered Yu Zhaozhao's doubts: "He earned this himself."

Yu Zhaozhao thought that Yu Le seemed to go to his classmates' houses to do homework recently. Could it be that Yu Le's real purpose was to do a part-time job? But at this age, no one would dare to hire him even if he was looking for a job...

Shen Xingzhi knew that Yu Zhaozhao had misjudged the idea, so he told Yu Zhaozhao about the agreement between him and Yu Le.

Yu Zhaozhao secretly laughed. Does studying hard mean making money?

It must be said that under the temptation of a tank worth thousands of yuan, Yu Le's motivation to study has indeed become stronger. Yu Zhaozhao doesn't know whether treating the symptoms can cure the root cause.

Shen Xingzhi smiled and sat on the stool: "Don't guess about men's affairs. Relax during the summer vacation. Yu Le has been studying very hard recently. You can relax appropriately. Remember to set aside time for Yu Le to review his high school textbooks."
