At night, it was as dark as ink, without a trace of starlight.

There was silence all around, and only the occasional barking of dogs could be faintly heard not far away.

Dragging his tired body, Su Mu numbly walked into a unit building that looked quite historical, mechanically took out the key and opened the door and walked in, a strange smell filled the small room, it was the unique smell of the old house that lacked ventilation, Su Mu didn't seem to smell it, anyway, he was used to it.

didn't turn on the light, threw the shoulder bag on his shoulder to the old chair on the side, Su Mu sat on the bed and lay down. The old plank bed creaked and screamed.

Out of the corner of his eye, he slid over the clock on the wall, oh, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.

Picking up the remote control on the side of the bed, Su Mu pressed it, and the old TV in the corner flashed a white snowflake.

Recalling what he had experienced recently, Su Mu rubbed his messy hair, and couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.

Su Mu, twenty-five years old this year, although he looks like Pan An, Yushu is in the wind, he is still gentle and elegant, and his facial features are good. After graduating from a second-rate bachelor's degree, my brain twitched when I chose a major, and I chose a civil engineering project, although I did not struggle on the front line of the construction site, but it was not much worse, and my performance was too outstanding when I graduated from the internship, and I entered a private design company.

Since then, the designer's life has begun.

Su Mu remembered that it was a job received at the end of last year, which was very smooth, but in the last two months, it was stuck in the neck, and the owner was not satisfied and put forward a lot of opinions, and urged him to hurry, only Su Mu and a few of his colleagues could not solve the problem, and the leadership pressure was also great, so he had to hire an expert with a high salary.

So, the question is, are the experts coming, and where does the salary come from? There are a lot of people in the design department itself, all the supervisors below, Su Mu has the highest salary, and there is a way to shoot the first bird, Su Mu has inexplicably become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the leader.

Approaching the end of June, in the past week, every day the leader will talk to Su Mu in the office, ask how the progress is, and even directly call Su Mu's name at the month-end meeting, saying that if he has no results for two consecutive months, he will have no face to stay in the company. even bluntly said that Su Mu's ability is not good.

Su Mu has worked in this position for four or five years, working hard every day, not to mention the brilliant achievements, it is also a remarkable achievement, the first time I heard that he was incapable.

If it weren't for the fact that Su Mu's bank card only had four digits in it, Su Mu would have thrown the drawings on his greasy face a long time ago.

"It's a big deal to change jobs, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain!"

"I can leave, but I must not be told that I left because I am not capable." Su Mu's muttering sounded in the dark room.

"Hello everyone, this is the evening news, I'm XX."

"I'm xxx."

"Today's news: After ten years, Longyao Group has created another masterpiece, and has joined forces with major online game companies around the world to create it. A new generation of large-scale virtual online game "New Life" is about to come out. ”

So, what are you waiting for, hurry up and join in! Gaming devices have been sold in all major cities and towns, and will go on sale on August 8, 2066. Please check the official website for the specific service opening time. Next, there is..."

Deceptive, right? Su Mu pursed the corners of his lips, although it is now 2066, and technology has long developed to an incredible point, but this kind of virtual space technology has always been a legend.

If it had been replaced by the meeting when he had just graduated, maybe Su Mu would have been moved, but now...

Don't think about it so much, go to sleep, tomorrow...

Alas...

Maybe the heartstrings have been too tight recently, and after thinking about it for a while, Su Mu didn't know when he fell asleep...

In the obscure room, only the TV hanging on the wall is flickering...

When Su Mu was woken up by the ringtone of his mobile phone, he stood up slowly, walked into the bathroom with his eyes open, and his habits over the years made him quickly solve self-hygiene even if he was not very conscious.

looked at himself in the mirror, because he often stayed up late, Su Mu's face was sallow, and the only thing that attracted special attention was the huge eye bags and dark circles.

After shaving the hideous beard that came out of the scratched skin, and taking the briefcase on the chair, Su Mu stepped out of the house quickly.

There are more than 8 billion people in this world, and China accounts for one-third.

Although the transportation is convenient now, it is still difficult to move forward during the rush hour of work.

There are many commercial buildings near the place where Su Mu works, so going to work every day is not much different from going to the battlefield.

Finally rushed to the company, and saw a fat figure from a distance, Su Mu secretly said in his heart that it was bad.

walked in, and sure enough, isn't it the celebrity in front of the boss?

"Xiao Su." When the fat figure saw Su Mu walking in front of him, he said to Su Mu with some meaning: "I know that you have been under a lot of pressure recently, lest you live up to the leader's expectations of you. But young people just have to endure hardships, and they can't choose comfort at the age when they can endure hardships the most. ”

Su Muzheng was curious why the leader, who usually felt impatient even at a glance, was so "approachable" today

Without waiting for Su Mu to ask, the fat figure raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist, and said in an unkind tone: "If you are late, you will be deducted from your attendance award for this month, and if you have any questions, talk to the boss." ”

So that's the case? Deliberately dragging me in and wanting me to be late?

After suppressing Su Mu's emotions for a while and finally showing some signs of outburst, Su Mu looked at the watch on his wrist and was already two minutes late.

"Yes, you're right, I failed to live up to the leader's expectations of me, and I can only say sorry for that." Su Mu said lightly: "Excuse me, I'll go to the boss to resign." ”

In the manager's office, Su Mu looked at this familiar leader, from his first entry into the society to the present, it was this person who gave him a place to stay.

"Xiao Su, don't blame me." The manager smirked and said: "This society is like this, if you can bring me benefits, I will use you, you can't bring benefits, I can only ask you to leave." ”

Su Mu shook his head: "I am very grateful to you for giving me a job and giving me a place to learn and grow, although I have not made any special contributions in the past few years, but the benefits I have brought to you are far beyond these, I don't owe you anything, I am worthy of the salary I get." Well, that's all. ”

Packed up his things and put them in a cardboard box, Su Mu settled his salary to the finance, walked out of the company without looking back, and thought about it carefully, well, except for the beautiful little girl at the front desk, there is really nothing to remember.

There was no light in the starry sky last night, and Su Mu knew that it would rain today, but he didn't expect God to be so appropriate.

Su Mu, who was holding the cardboard box, walked on the street in a trance, and the majestic rain had already soaked him and the box in his hand.

The rain was so heavy that it flooded the road in an instant, and at a corner, a car sped rapidly, splashing like a fountain and hitting Su Mu in the face.

Under the subconscious twist of his head, a notebook with a big red cover in the cardboard box came into Su Mu's eyes.

Su Mu put the cardboard box on the ground, picked up the red notebook, and opened it, it was his diary in college.

When did you stop keeping a diary? Su Mu thought hard.

Probably after she started working, but also after she left...
