Lin Shu's motive for taking the public examination was simple: to find a leisurely position and lead a retirement life of fishing and drinking tea in advance.
As a recent graduate from a well-off family and never short of spare money, he passed the professional test with his good talent. However, his application was overwhelmed by the writing logic taught by his father who had been deeply involved in government agencies for many years. In the end, he was able to pass the test and was admitted to the Municipal Council.
The days in the system were not as he had expected. They were all about fishing, writing materials, sorting out procedures, coordinating trivial matters, and everything was done well. He didn't have any ambition to be competitive. He just relied on his simple idea of getting things done, and occasionally listened to advice from his parents at home, and he managed to live a smooth and unhurried life in what others saw as "Qingshui Gang".
Life was moving forward smoothly, with a stable job, good friends by his side, money in his pocket, and nothing in his heart. Lin Shu felt that this was the ideal life he dreamed of. It wasn't until a division gathering that he saw again, across the room full of people, the gentle school girl who had handed him a bottle of warm water on the way to research, leaving him with a startling glance. It turns out that in his stable daily life, he still lacked a slow and gentle encounter.
Reader comments
I have read Chapter 23 so far. I personally feel that the public examination period is a bit too long. The last few chapters have become better and better, giving people a smooth and silent feeling, which is quite good. I have read a lot of refreshing articles, and this kind of life-style articles that are close to realism is also a good choice. It would be better if there are subtleties in the later stage that make people feel fresh and new!
