We all lie flat, you roll into a major general?

After excluding the daily expenses and the high rent, I can only save a few thousand yuan every month.

For this small amount of money, I kept working overtime and making my body worse and worse. What are you trying to do?

Facing the elevator door, Chen Ming fell into thought.

dream?

When I first applied for the position of game copywriting planning, it was also because of my passion.

Since he was a child, he has been in contact with games of all sizes, from the two-person puzzle game on the small website to the 3A masterpiece later.

He is willing to spend his whole life making a game of his own for the legendary games that inspire him.

As a newcomer, the closest to this dream is undoubtedly to join a big factory.

He came from a prestigious school, and he also did game guides online when he was in college.

In this way, he was hired by Penguin during the school recruitment and became the envy of everyone.

After passing the internship period, I became a full-time employee smoothly.

I thought I could flex my muscles and create an epoch-making game with many colleagues.

But reality is often skinny.

The edges and corners that came out of the ivory tower, and the love for games, were gradually obliterated in the overtime work day after day.

Thinking of this, he took out his phone.

Click on the main planning chat box at the top of WeChat, and at this moment, he still stays on his message "The main planning, the second edition document has been sent to the mailbox, please check it".

Write down the words "main policy, I want to resign".

If you quit, everything will be free...

But when his thumb rests on the send button.

Chen Ming suddenly came back to his senses, and found that his own voice had been typed into the input box by himself, and it became a clear black and white screen.

And it's just one step away from sending.

He calmed down and examined his heart.

If I resigned, what would my family, classmates and friends think of me?

Will they feel that their brains are pumped?

I have to resign from such a good job, so many years of hard study, exams, interviews... all in vain?

Moreover, what will I do after I resign, can I find a better job than now?

For a while, he couldn't send this sentence.

In the end, Chen Ming silently deleted the sentence, watching the cursor turn the input box into blank.

"Ding dong."

The elevator door opens.

He walked quickly into the elevator, feeling the drop in space.

This is the helplessness and bitterness of adults. They don't want to stick to the status quo, but they are helpless.

……

Walking out of the company gate, in the vast night.

Chen Ming took a taxi and whispered the address of his residence.

The taxi driver was very energetic, and joked with a smile: "You young people are really hardworking, working overtime until so late."

Chen Ming laughed at himself and didn't reply.

I thought helplessly in my heart, you think I am willing, but it is not because of life.

Sitting in the car, letting the night wind blow over his brows, he didn't feel much sleepy because of the entanglement and boredom in his heart.

The car shuttles on the deserted street.

Before a traffic light, the taxi stopped slowly at an empty intersection.

The green numbers on the sidewalk gradually become smaller.

Chen Ming subconsciously looked out the window.

Next to the road, there is a banner slogan illuminated by red light - "While you are young, go where the people need you!"

It's draft season.

This is the banner hung by the local armed forces in Pengcheng on the building of the armed forces.

Seeing this banner, Chen Ming's eyes suddenly lit up.

In this slightly cold late night, the original depression and confusion were swept away, and there was a feeling of warmth in my heart.

"Yes, I can go to the army!"

Speaking of which, Chen Ming wanted to become a soldier since he was a child.

Holding a steel gun, defending the country, how handsome, and how righteous.

But the thing about Versailles is that his academic performance is so good that he was directly admitted to Fudan University in the college entrance examination, so it is naturally impossible for him to join the army.

Even if you go, the family will not agree.

After all, in the eyes of many people, being a soldier is a way out for many children who fail to get into a good university.

You have a bright future, why do you want to join the army?

But now, he is tired of a workplace full of introversion and friction.

Going to the military camp is undoubtedly the best choice for him at present.

Get rid of overtime and introspection, and stay away from social sophistication and intrigue.

As long as you have a sincere heart, there is the purest place.

And you don't need to take out food, you can exercise your body and get back what you lost.

The most important thing is to save money!

There is nothing to spend in the army, and subsidies can be saved.

After retiring, there is still a retirement fee. With this money and the 10 yuan I saved this year, it would be great to open a small shop!

The more Chen Ming thought about it, the more feasible it was.

In my mind, I was already changing into a military uniform, the picture of training, and my heart instantly ignited the longing for the military camp.

Thinking of this, he quickly checked the conscription requirements through his mobile phone.

I don't know if the conscription policy has changed compared to the past.

The first thing to look at is hard indicators.

The age requirement for conscription is usually 18 to 20, but for undergraduates it can be relaxed to 24.

I have only been out of the society to work for a year, and I am only 23 this year, so I meet the conditions.

In addition, I am from a famous school, and now the army will give priority to recruiting college students with high academic qualifications, and I hope to have a bigger share.

Moreover, his family background is clean and clean, so the political review must be no problem.

On the other hand, Chen Ming, regardless of his family history or personal history, had no illnesses and no tattoos. He looked all the way and found that he met all the conditions.

Even he himself is not short-sighted, Chen Ming secretly rejoiced that if he worked for another year or so, he might have to undergo vision correction surgery.

But now, perfect pass.

This may be the best arrangement.

For a while, Chen Ming made up his mind and went to serve as a soldier.

Chapter 3 Go where the people need you while you are young

Soon, the taxi arrived at the gate of the community.

Chen Ming got out of the car.

Under the street lights, he walked briskly to the residential building and took the elevator upstairs.

I don't know if it was a relief to make a decision.

At this moment, he felt very relaxed.

It seems to be a good choice to find another sustenance away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

When I came to the door of the rented house, I took out the key and turned it twice to open the inner lock.

Immediately, he gently pushed the door open. After opening the door, there was a faint smell of alcohol.

Chen Ming rented a house with two bedrooms, one living room, one bathroom and one kitchen.

Of course, he doesn't live alone.

Instead, they share the room with someone else, and the roommate is a girl named Xia Ying.

After all, there is nothing else in this area of ​​Pengcheng, except that the rent is expensive.

Renting a house can't be too far away from the company, and this is the place to pick and choose.

Two rooms and one living room cost [-] yuan, which is too much for one person to rent.

In order to save money, soon after Chen Ming rented a house, he looked for a roommate to share with him online.

Xia Ying was the first to contact him. The two parties got to know each other about the situation and agreed to visit the house after they were satisfied.

The rest of the conditions were pretty good, except that during the house inspection, Xia Ying said that she was working at night, which was not acceptable to Chen Ming.

KTV accompanying wine girl, this profession is quite discouraging.

If possible, he would of course prefer to choose a more stable roommate.

But at the beginning, Xia Ying had already known about Chen Ming's conditions, and strongly begged to share the rent with him.

And it is guaranteed that they will never bring anyone back, and they will pay half of the rent and also contracted the sanitation.

Dispelling all Chen Ming's worries, he agreed.

Of course, the main reason is that Xia Ying's personality is not like the stereotype brought about by this profession.

On the contrary, with self-pity and strength.

It was only later that Chen Ming found out why Xia Ying was so determined to share the rent with him.

It was because she saw Chen Ming as a clean boy at first sight.

Engaged in game writing work in Dachang, he is cultured and well-educated.

He just graduated from college and has no girlfriend.

These conditions add up to her ideal roommate.

And in the subsequent shared life, the two of them also lived in a tacit understanding.

She fulfilled the promise Xia Ying made before co-renting, and she hardly let work affect her life.

Of course, it is difficult to completely isolate work.

In the night market, being drunk is unavoidable, and this is also a rather cumbersome job.

Whoever can drink better will be able to sell more alcohol and achieve more performance, and the price will naturally be the body after drinking.

After Chen Ming walked in, he turned on the light bulb in the hallway, and the incandescent light brightened the living room.

When she came to the living room, she saw Xia Ying collapsed on the couch in a state of drunkenness.

Before she had time to change her clothes, she curled up in a corner of the sofa with a cartoon pillow in her hands, her blushing face was covered by loose hair.

It was the same as before, coming back drunk and making the room smell of alcohol.

The more pungent smell of alcohol made Chen Ming frowned uncontrollably.

But he was used to it, there were always a few days a week when Xia Ying had to work harder.

Drinking is their job, otherwise, who would want to drink bottle after bottle to make themselves so uncomfortable?
