Just before graduating from junior college, I somehow became a university student. After graduation, I couldn’t make it in the big city. I was fired from the bank, and telemarketing showed me every side of human nature. In the end, I swallowed my pride and returned to my small hometown county, only to unexpectedly reach the pinnacle of life: I passed the civil service exam and met the tax bureau director’s daughter! Watch me find my own way, one step at a time!
“Huh? You’re staying for seven days?”
Zhou Yong climbed out of his Passat with a belly like he was ten months pregnant. His first words were a complaint about my accommodations.
“What’s wrong with staying seven days?” I asked, greeting him at the door.
“How can you stay here for seven days?” Zhou Yong said. “This place is beneath you!”
As he spoke, Zhou Yong started laughing. The fat on his belly rolled like waves.
The guy was only just over twenty-four. How had he gotten such a big belly?
Did meals on the public dime really put on that much weight?
...And so the story begins!
It's been 10 years and I still haven't reached the deputy section chief level 😅
