Love? I'm reborn and I just want to get rewards

Chapter 1 If I could do it again, I would choose Li Bai

"Xiao Su, there won't be any problem with next month's rent, right?"

The landlady's eyes were full of suspicion. She even suddenly opened Su Huai's bedroom door and looked inside, as if she was detecting a country thief.

And Su Huai could only nod and smile: "No, no!"

……

"Can you guys stop making fun of me and Su Huai all the time? Are we a good match?!"

The beautiful colleague's outburst came without any warning, and her irritable and angry attitude suddenly cooled the atmosphere of the department dinner.

Su Huai stood there awkwardly, his lips moved twice, and he held back his excuses.

I really didn't miss you...

……

"Mr. Su, thank you for the treat, but I'm afraid it's not suitable for us. Oh, by the way, I'll pay for my half myself."

The blind date partner hardly touched his chopsticks the entire time and was impeccably polite. After paying half of the bill, he turned around and left as if he was relieved.

Su Huai was also freed.

He liked the other person very much, but knew he was not worthy of her, so he started to worry as soon as he sat down.

The current result is not bad.

……

Are they going too far?
In fact, no one is too much.

They are all normal people who try hard to protect their own interests and are realistic, but they did not deliberately insult Su Huai.

But it is also a fact that all these factors combined have made Su Huai live in an environment where he encounters obstacles everywhere.

There are really not so many idiots in society. Most of them are just ordinary people who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak and weigh internal and external interests with double standards. If you are not successful enough, they will weave a big net to make you feel uncomfortable all the time.

Who is to blame?
Su Huai didn't think it was his problem.

As a young man from a small town with average height, average looks and average IQ, facing this era of soaring prices, it is already very difficult for me to just live seriously.

He tried hard, he just couldn't do more.

But unfortunately, Darwinian society never shows mercy to the weak, let alone sympathy for reasons.

The strong can treat the world as a bitch and rush forward however they want, but the weak can only be crushed repeatedly, with no joy at all in the process.

The world has always been like this.

Su Huai has lived for more than thirty years and has seen everything clearly.

His mentality became more and more stable, and he was less and less easily disturbed by the outside world. However, when some people asked him condescendingly, "Have you tried your best?", at that moment, he finally couldn't help but sneer.

How much more do you want me to work on?!
My grandparents were ordinary rural people. They worked hard in the soil for many years and finally sent my parents out of the countryside.

My parents were also very hardworking. When they were young, they cut grass for pigs while studying, and eventually they settled down in a small county town.

Su Huai worked even harder and tried his best to get into a non-key university.

Three generations have worked hard for decades, and you guys are blaming us for not working hard enough?!
Why not eat minced meat?
It’s so fucking funny!
Su Huai did not vent his emotions online, but just took a box of beer home angrily.

While drinking, I recalled my life.

Childhood is the happiest time. That kind of heartless happiness will never come back.

My most profound memory of middle school is that I studied hard despite my inferiority complex, and then became even more inferior under the blow of my talent.

Studying and working part-time in college was very fulfilling, but when it was late at night, I was always struck by confusion and anxiety.

After working, I become a corporate slave, my horizons become broader and my personality becomes more smoother, but my future becomes increasingly bleak.

Today, it seems that the situation is too serious to be reversed.

It's so fucking sad...

Su Huai shook his head and smiled bitterly, his eyes blurred. He suddenly wanted to call his mother, but was afraid that she would worry.

When an adult man wants to chat with his parents about family matters but is worried that they will worry about him, it proves that he is not his parents' pride, but a burden to them.

It's so sad.

Waves of frustration surged into Su Huai's heart, making him almost go crazy.

in case……

If I had worked harder in high school, could I have been admitted to a better university?
Not very realistic.

When the study intensity is maximized, it all depends on pure IQ and understanding. If you can't solve the final math problem, you just can't solve it. There is no possibility of an upset.

……

If I had taken more exams in college, would I have found a better job? Not much difference.

Postgraduate study, working in foreign companies, and large factories, these are the best ways out.

If you want to be promoted to a senior executive with an annual salary and achieve true success, you still need abilities, emotional intelligence, background and resources.

If you just rely on overtime, you will be blamed by the department until you die.

……

If you start your own business early and seize those so-called turnaround opportunities, can you achieve financial freedom?

I guess it's enough.

People will definitely encounter many opportunities in their lifetime, but most ordinary people cannot grasp them. In fact, this is normal.

Those masters on TikTok open their mouths and close their mouths to talk about patterns, as if buying a course and improving your cognition will definitely lead to success, but is this really the case?

Shit!

There are so many opportunities within our cognitive scope. In hindsight, those opportunities seem so tempting, but beforehand, who can guarantee success?
If you can’t succeed 100%, you will have to face the consequences of failure.

Those who have capital are never afraid to start over, but Su Huai, like millions of ordinary workers, has no room for error.

If you fail once, you will be burdened with heavy debts, spend a huge amount of time, and never be able to recover.

Under such heavy pressure, even if you really dare to try and find the right project, the greater possibility is that your mentality will be unbalanced and your operations will be distorted, leading to failure.

Therefore, office workers are not suitable for starting a business at all.

Su Huai was restless for a while when he was in his early 30s, but after he really saw himself clearly, he could only feel grateful.

Starting a business? Are you fucking cut out for that?!

People are worse than dogs when they reach middle age. Going bald doesn't make you stronger, it just makes you uglier.

Really, luckily I didn’t waste time.

……

If you weren't so stubborn and tried hard to pursue a wealthy woman while you were still young, could you change your fate?

Well, this is a little bit reliable.

After all, you can find pure love in college, but the problem is, how can a 20-year-old young man be so thick-skinned?
Moreover, it is useless to just be thick-skinned. If your appearance is not good enough, the difficulty is +100; if your words are not sweet enough, the difficulty is +500; even if you have great potential, what is the point if you can't use it?
Oh, by the way, the above sentence is just daily bragging. I’m not that great, just an old-fashioned flashlight.

……

"If I could do it again..."

The half-drunk Su Huai clenched his fists tightly, and his tone was as cruel as it could be——

"I can't fucking lick them to death!"

It is impossible to work. Even if you earn money in a regular way, you will never be able to keep up with inflation in your lifetime.

Starting a business is even more boring; it’s busy, tiring and stressful.

Su Huai has really worked hard enough. He just wants to go back to his youth, find a beautiful, rich and pretty girl to eat soft food, steadily make his first pot of gold, and then seize any of the three major opportunities: live e-commerce, Bitcoin, and the 22nd World Cup. After that, he can enjoy life happily.

But the ambition only lasted for a few seconds, and soon Su Huai became discouraged.

"Lick the hair! With my appearance, it's hard for me to lick a pretty girl with 80 points. Who gave you the courage to lick a top-notch white, rich and beautiful girl?"

Most men are very aware of their own situation, and Su Huai, whose hairline has moved up 4 centimeters, is particularly aware of his own situation.

When he was in his prime, he was tongue-tied, penniless and shameless. Now he is ruthless and sophisticated, but he has been ravaged by time and has become a black and yellow old dough stick dripping with oil.

In short, no matter what age he is, he is not... unworthy of picking up girls.

"Forget it, I don't want to start over again, just give me a Tongzi father!"

Su Huai drunkenly threw a can, trying to shoot it into the trash can in the corner, but ended up hitting the wall.

There was a loud bang, which woke him up.

"Grass!"

Su Huai slapped his thigh hard, disgusted with himself: "Little brother, what's wrong with you? You don't even dare to do the best even in your dreams? What choice do adults make? Of course they have to do both!"

Humming an unformed tune, Su Huai staggered onto the bed. Before he fell asleep, there was only one thought in his mind -

If I could do it again, I would choose Li Bai.

Laughing out a glass of wine, killing people in the city.

******************
　Originally, I really didn’t want to write about the city anymore, but now I need long-term treatment, and the results are unknown. The financial pressure is too great, so I have no choice but to save more money while I can still write.

　　It is purely commercial writing, has nothing to do with ideals, is super refreshing and plain, and is meant to make you laugh.
