Ye Zhou seemed to sense his confusion, pointed to the access card outside, and said, "See it?"

"The access card is displayed outside; residents can simply swipe it to enter."

"I can sleep here without disturbing anyone."

"Let's not bother each other!"

"This is called...improving efficiency, that's right...improving efficiency!"

"..."

The photographer's lips twitched.

This was the first time he had ever heard anyone call sleeping at work "improving efficiency."

The viewers in the live stream were also amused by Ye Zhou's logic.

[Haha, Ye Zhou is absolutely right!]

This is called "automated management"!

[Ye Zhou: I have already achieved the digital transformation of the security guard position!]

Although I know he's just making excuses, it still feels like there's a tiny bit of truth to it!

……

So, don't bother me.

Ye Zhou waved his hand and went back to sleep.

The photographer's expression stiffened slightly.

Good grief, is he going to film Ye Zhou sleeping at work every day?!

If things continue like this, he has a feeling he'll be severely reprimanded by his superiors!

But he was just an ordinary photographer, what could he do?

Just then, the silent entrance to the residential area was suddenly filled with footsteps and heavy breathing.

A middle-aged man in sportswear was running towards the entrance of the residential area.

He paused for a moment when he saw the access card hanging on the gate.

He then picked up the access card, looked at the note on it, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

The middle-aged man frowned and looked towards the guardhouse.

When he saw Ye Zhou sleeping in the armchair, his face instantly darkened.

Seeing this, the photographer felt a pang of anxiety and was about to wake Ye Zhou.

The middle-aged man, who had been frowning, didn't say anything when he saw Ye Zhou's appearance. He simply took the access card and swiped it on the machine next to him.

The barrier gate is opened.

The middle-aged man expressionlessly hung the access card back on the gate and turned to go inside.

This series of actions left everyone, including the photographer, dumbfounded.

This seems completely different from what they imagined.

"Brother, you see this kind of irresponsible security guard and you're not angry?"

Seeing the middle-aged man about to leave, the cameraman quickly grabbed his small camera and chased after him.

"I'm definitely angry."

The middle-aged man was slightly taken aback and said, "After all, I pay a lot of property management fees every year."

"Then why did you just leave like that?"

Hearing this, the photographer became even more curious.

"I've heard of this new young man; he's the one who helped us get revenge."

The middle-aged man laughed with satisfaction, "That shrew Huang Meifang has been running rampant in our neighborhood for who knows how many years, always making a huge fuss over the smallest of things!"

"As a result, I was completely subdued by this young man yesterday, and he even dropped a bombshell. It was truly gratifying!"

As he spoke, he glanced back at Ye Zhou, who was fast asleep in the guardhouse.

"To be honest, just because of this, I wouldn't mind if he stayed here sleeping forever."

"Anyway, there are surveillance cameras, so it won't have much of an impact!"

Photographer: "..."

The viewers in the live stream were also completely bewildered by this twist.

【? ? ? 】

What did that woman do to make the people in the neighborhood dislike him so much?

So this is the legendary "those who have rendered meritorious service go unpunished"?

[Haha, homeowner: I can tolerate you sleeping at work as long as you stand up for me!]

This plot development is way too absurd!

[Ye Zhou: I'm not conceding; I'm enjoying the fruits of victory!]

……

[Ding! Host's emotional value has exceeded 10,000. Please keep up the good work.]

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Zhou was slowly awakened by the system notification in his mind.

"Are you awake?"

The photographer, who was so bored he almost fell asleep, said something rather speechless after seeing Ye Zhou wake up.

"More or less!"

Ye Zhou yawned and said weakly.

"Brother Ye, are you planning to continue like this?"

Seeing this, the photographer couldn't help but speak his mind: "You're still young, why waste your time here?"

"With your education and abilities, wouldn't it be more fulfilling to work as a programmer at any big company than wasting your time as a security guard here? Wouldn't you earn more money than that?"

Ye Zhou didn't immediately refute, but instead stretched and slowly said, "So, how much do you think I could earn a month if I went to work as a programmer at a big company?"

The photographer paused for a moment, then subconsciously said, "At least ten thousand."

"Seven thousand five," Ye Zhou replied.

Photographer: "..."

"Big companies offer high salaries and good career prospects."

Ye Zhou continued unhurriedly, "But the price to pay is that you have to work overtime until 11 or 12 o'clock every day, and your hair will fall out in clumps."

"When I get older and my health fails, I'll have to spend my savings to pay for medical treatment."

"And now?"

"You can sleep at work and rest after get off work, protected from the wind and rain."

Tell me, which one is better?

The photographer opened his mouth, but was speechless.

Although Ye Zhou's words sounded like a far-fetched argument, upon closer examination, they did seem to make some sense.

The viewers in the live stream also started discussing it.

[That seems...to make sense?]

This is a true reflection of the working class's reality!

Ye Zhou: It's not that I lack ambition; I'm simply choosing a lifestyle that suits me.

My uncle is like that; all the money he's earned over the years has gone to medical expenses.

……

"I'm fine as I am now."

"At least, I live an easy life."

Ye Zhou leaned back in his chair, looking at the bright sunshine outside, and said slowly, "People don't have to live such a tiring life."

"Life is long, and you'll eventually have to pay the price for your current ease," the photographer said stubbornly.

"You carry a camera around every day, braving wind and rain, and when you're busy you can't even take care of your family. What are you working so hard to earn money for?"

Ye Zhou glanced at the photographer.

"Of course, it's for a better life in the future!"

The photographer said without hesitation, "My biggest dream is to buy a motorhome and travel around after I retire."

Ye Zhou looked at him and suddenly smiled.

There was something in that smile that was hard to describe.

"Wait until you retire?"

"Do you think that if you keep working this hard now, you'll still have the energy to travel around after you retire?"

"It's already a blessing that you don't have to go to the hospital every day."

The photographer's expression froze.

"Furthermore, the retirement age for men has now been postponed by five years."

Even if you're lucky and still in good health after retirement, you still have to think about your next generation.

Ye Zhou pressed his advantage: "A car and a house are essential. Do you really have enough money to realize your dreams?"

The photographer was rendered speechless by Ye Zhou's barrage of questions, his face drained of color, and he was completely overwhelmed.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found that he couldn't refute it at all.

[Dude, that really hit home!]

I was speechless...?

Yes! Think about it carefully, what are we working so hard for?

Holy crap, this is so true!

Many people risk their lives for money, and then use that money to prolong their lives.

A friend of mine drank and socialized every day, and by the time he was thirty, he was diagnosed with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar.

Even though I know it's wrong, why do I feel so envious?
