Chapter 16 Bread and Dreams

He didn't know if Yan Zejun had a good dream, but Duan Zhinan woke up naturally after a nap, lamenting happily that today is Sunday, so there is no need to "pretend to go to work."

He patted his face, walked out of the dormitory, and found that Yan Zejun had already started working in the kitchen.

Seeing him coming out, Yan Zejun smiled: "Can I just have some noodles for lunch?"

Duan Zhinan trotted over quickly and said, "What are you cooking for? Let me come, let me come. Your waist is not healed yet."

Yan Zejun hesitated for a moment and said, "Would you?"

"Of course I can!" It's not that Duan Zhinan doesn't know how to cook, he's just lazy. Of course, his cooking is definitely not as delicious as Yan Zejun's.

"I can cook for you..." Duan Zhinan pointed to the few dishes he knew, "Tomato omelette...?"

Yan Zejun: "...Yes."

The last two people ate tomato fried egg noodles at noon. The eggs were a little bit mushy, and the tomatoes were forgotten to be peeled, but the taste was barely edible.

The two chatted while eating, and then talked about work at the dinner table yesterday.

Yan Zejun is actually quite entangled now. Although his grades are not good, they are not so bad that he cannot graduate.He and his parents had a relatively big disagreement on future career planning. He actually "followed" his parents' wishes and tried to go out to find an internship when he went out every day.

"But, I can't get an interview with a good company, and I really don't like the atmosphere of an ordinary company." When Yan Zejun said this, he was very serious. Duan Zhinan felt that he should be speaking from the bottom of his heart.

"I don't know that at the age of a college student, it is unrealistic to suddenly want to take the road of sports. After all, one is a dream and the other is reality. It is really difficult for me to choose."

Duan Zhinan was actually very emotional when he heard it.

His dream is actually to be able to independently operate an account with a million fans, but the reality is that if he had listened to a good friend's advice to get a fixed salary in the system when he just graduated, his life now would be much better than before.

After thinking for a long time, he decided to tell people the truth: "I don't want to just talk to you..." He smacked his lips, not sure if the next words would hurt Yan Zejun, "The job I'm doing now...well...is I think I like it better, but let me tell you the truth, my salary is very low, and even the basic guarantee is difficult to solve, otherwise I would not put the house out to share..."

Seeing that Yan Zejun was looking at him seriously, he gritted his teeth and mustered up the courage to talk about some of the confusion that had plagued him for many years: "Actually, sometimes I also think to myself, if I decided to go another way then, now I would It can’t be very successful. If I say I have no regrets at all, in fact there will be occasionally, because you are also asking me very seriously. I don’t want to say something like ‘I will support whatever you do’ like yesterday. I will feel very irresponsible to you, and it is more fake..."

Which is more important, bread or dreams?

This seems to be a problem that every young person must experience.Everyone's plans for their future are often too good, but the vast majority of people often fail to achieve their desired goals.

Take Duan Zhinan as an example. His current "self-media" business has almost entered a bottleneck period. He is eager to make a breakthrough in increasing followers, but the old methods are all the same, and it is difficult to attract the attention of the market. Unless the handsome men and beautiful women who contributed all started at the level of Yan Zejun, it would be difficult to complete a good transformation.

Seeing that Yan Zejun didn't respond, Duan Zhinan lowered his voice again, became a little cautious, and stumbled, "Of course, these are just some of my personal thoughts, I don't mean to make you give up..."

Hearing the obvious change in Duan Zhinan's voice, Yan Zejun came back to his senses in a hurry: "I was too fascinated by thinking just now, brother Zhinan, don't worry, I'm actually very moved." Touching the back of his head, "Actually, you are different from my parents and other friends. The opinions of my parents are completely contrary to those of my other friends who play golf. Therefore, my thinking mode has always been two extremes, but you gave me a comprehensive Considering the possibility also allows me to face this issue more realistically."

But there is one thing that he can't figure out. The city they are in is only a second-tier city. If they want to maintain their usual daily expenses, it doesn't look like it will cost too much. What's more, Duan Zhinan has a house of his own, so there is no need to think about it Rent, mortgage and other issues, how could it be... er... so serious as he showed that he was short of money?

While thinking about it, he asked casually: "Brother Zhinan, what is your monthly salary now? Can you tell me?"

Duan Zhinan instantly petrified.

He just knew that he had put his words on someone's lips again!

"Uh..." Duan Zhinan bit his lip, and said pitifully, "Actually... I don't have a basic salary..."

"?" Yan Zejun's long and narrow eyes were full of confusion, thinking that he had heard it wrong: "No basic salary? No five insurances and one housing fund?"

Duan Zhinan wished he could bury his head under the table: "No...no."

The confusion in Yan Zejun's eyes deepened, and he almost wrote "I'm afraid you have joined a deceitful company" directly on his face.

Looking at the sluggish Yan Zejun, Duan Zhinan wanted to forcefully explain: "The more orders we take, the more we earn. In fact, when I have a lot of orders, I can still earn [-] a day, but the income is a bit unstable..."

This is not ordinary instability!

Yan Zejun could tell that Duan Zhinan wasn't lying at this moment. It turned out that the reason why he found the room full of instant noodles at first might not only be because Duan Zhinan was a bit lazy and had bad habits, but more likely to save money. Bar.

Thinking of this, he felt a little emotional again.

The pair of sneakers he gave him were not cheap. If a girl gave him these gifts directly, he didn't even have to guess what it meant.

After all, since I was a child, because of this face, there are really not a few people who chase me.

But if it's a...boy...who lacks money and becomes like this, there's no reason to be so kind to himself.

what does it mean?

Yan Zejun lowered his eyes, trying to get rid of these messy thoughts in his mind, and kept telling himself that Duan Zhinan was different from his gay roommate, he should be a straight man, so don't think too much about it.

But the more he rushed, the more he thought about some things, and he suddenly thought of Duan Zhinan's abnormal enthusiasm for him from the beginning, moving house and entertaining guests, and running so hard to buy medicine because of his injury.

His thinking drifted towards places where he could not develop, and he was a little empty.

Duan Zhinan here breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, I am not entangled in my "weird" work!Otherwise, you will soon fall off the horse!
