I am a lonely man. After finishing the materials at hand, it was already past nine o'clock. I tidied up my things and prepared to go home after work.
Let me make it clear that overtime is voluntary. Moreover, as a single man like me, even if I go home, there's nothing to do, so I might as well stay in the company. If I happen to be seen by the boss, I may get promoted.
To be honest, there are not many people who neglect meals and sleep for the company like me. Nowadays, those who work hard are all honest people, while those who get promoted and become rich are all good at flattery and smooth talkers. However, on the other hand, we work for ourselves. I don't believe there's no one in the company who can recognize talent. One day, I, this thousand-mile horse, will...
I started dreaming again, and a smile involuntarily crept onto the corner of my mouth.
"Slap..." I slapped myself. It's time to go home.
My surname is Xue, and my given name is Jian. Maybe when my parents named me, they didn't consider the homophonic factor, so they gave me this name. Actually, I quite like the word "Jian", but when combined, it doesn't sound so good. From childhood to now, people around me have always grinned and called me "Xue Jian", as if I was born to be a lowly person. Every time I see their smug faces, I want to kick them.
