Chapter 240 A way out

Jiang Ke didn't think much about it when she said it, but she felt a little embarrassed when he was stunned.

After not seeing each other for a few years, things are still different after all.

When Jiang Ke was young, her academic performance was not outstanding.

He is noisy and can't sit still. Besides causing trouble, he also disturbs his deskmate and gossips during class.

Maybe Zhu Xiaotong didn't expect him to pass the exam.

For friends who haven't seen each other for several years, their impression of each other will mostly remain at the time of separation.

Zhu Xiaotong majored in accounting. There are not many male students in the accounting major, but there are still some.

He has some talent for studying and he calls himself a small town test-taker.

In a county high school with scarce educational resources, he performed exceptionally well and was admitted to a top university.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Xiaotong suddenly spoke up: "You know, Jiang Ke, I have envied you since I was a child."

Jiang Ke felt that this sentence was not a good start, and wanted to say something to change the subject: "We are talking to each other, why are we talking about this?"

Zhu Xiaotong continued to talk to himself: "You are smart and quick-witted. Even if you get into trouble because of your mischief, there are still many people rushing to help you settle it. It seems that everyone is willing to revolve around you."

I am actually very jealous of you. I am jealous that your family is rich and powerful, and that the village chief has to look at your family's face. I am jealous that you are willing to put all kinds of delicious snacks in your pocket. I am jealous that you can never spend all your pocket money. I am jealous that you don't study during normal times, but you can do better than me in exams no matter how hard you try...

Zhu Xiaotong said: "At that time I felt that you were the most annoying person in the world..."

Jiang Ke didn't respond. He and Zhu Xiaotong had been playing together since childhood, but he didn't expect this.

“Maybe I’m just a really bad person.”

Zhu Xiaotong: "Brother Kai didn't like me at the time and warned me to stay away from you, but you were stupid and rushed to play with me. I often wonder, if I were you, would I be like you, naive and silly but very loyal..."

Zhu Xiaotong: "Later, when you transferred to another school, I realized that I wasn't jealous of you, but of all the people who were better off than me..."

Jiang Ke did not make any other movements, but just looked at him quietly. Zhu Xiaotong looked up and met his gaze, then lowered his head again.

Jiang Ke saw tears in the corners of his eyes.

Zhu Xiaotong: "You know, my family is poor, my mother is disabled, and my father is the only one who earns money. All the money in the family is used to support my education. My sister graduated from junior high school, but my family didn't let her continue to study, saying that they would support me to go to college."

"That night, she accused her parents of being partial and favoring boys over girls, and said that once she walked out that door, she would never come back."

Zhu Xiaotong said: "She has better grades than me, and I will always feel sorry for her."

Zhu Xiaotong said: "My envy of you comes from my poverty. The book says that all men are born equal, but why do I have to live such a hard life?"

"The biggest scam is that everyone is born equal. People's lives are marked with class from birth. Some are born in Rome, and some are born into the mud. The only way to change your fate is to study and get ashore. Only with power can you have influence, and with influence can you have money."

"I thought I could..."

“It turns out there are so many excellent people…”

"There are too many lucky people. I don't know what to do..."

"Am I wrong?"

Zhu Xiaotong rarely says such discouraging words in front of others.

He is a kind and silent person, studying and working diligently.

This kind of personality is actually very disadvantageous in the workplace.

You do the most work but see no benefits, and you are always at the back of the queue for promotion and salary increase, neither high nor low.

All the work that no one wants to do will eventually fall on him.

Everyone likes people who know how to get things done, so their popularity should not be too bad, just like a frog in boiling water.

Zhu Xiaotong is not a fool, so he can naturally see it.

So he chose to resign and return from the big city to the village where he had wanted to escape countless times.

"this is not your fault."

"So, who's wrong?"

What is the way out?
