Daily Life - Single Female Protagonist.
Coin? Double?
In the hustle and bustle of the graduation season, he picked up a worn old wallet in a corner of campus. No one could have imagined at that time that this chance would completely change his life - the money in the wallet would double every day.
From the initial few dozen yuan to the astronomical figures later, wealth came unexpectedly. He resigned from the internship offer he just received, moved out of the shared rental house, moved into a penthouse with river views, and collected all the limited-edition and luxury cars he once envied. Compliments at the banquet and envious looks from others have become a daily routine, but whenever he is alone late at night in front of a room full of luxury goods, he always loses sight of the empty room. Those "perfections" piled up with money make life seem particularly empty.
The turning point occurred in a community bookstore. That day, he was wandering aimlessly and knocked over a picture album on the bookshelf. A girl in a cotton skirt reached out to hold him up, smiled and handed him a copy of "Human Plants", and said softly, "The small and beautiful things in ordinary days are the most rare." The clarity and certainty in the girl's eyes were like a beam of light shining into his life that was filled with money but had no warmth.
Later, he became a frequent visitor to the bookstore, watching the girl sorting books, reading picture books to her children, and listening to her talk about her dream of saving money to open a small bookstore. He was no longer obsessed with filling the void with consumption, and began to help the girl prepare a bookstore, accompany her to the community to help the elderly, and eat hot wontons together in the alley. I once thought that wealth could solve all problems, but it wasn't until I met her that I realized that doubling the money can buy material abundance, but it cannot buy inner fulfillment. True happiness.
