He clearly ranked first in the exam, yet he still had little presence.
Si Er couldn't help but sigh. This was something he should have gotten used to long ago, but every time he changed classes for a higher grade, he couldn't help but struggle with it, but unfortunately, he could never get a result.
He had no choice but to give up struggling and think about where he could work during the summer vacation to earn more living expenses so that he wouldn't be in financial straits and embarrassed again when there were extra fees to pay next time.
Fortunately, he always seemed to have divine help when he was looking for work. Although not many people remembered him, he always managed to find a job smoothly.
This life of feeling invisible continued until he graduated from high school. When he went out to work a summer job, he suddenly met a boy whose eyes lit up the moment he saw him.
"Wow, are you here for a summer job too? You're so pretty!"
That was the first time Si'er felt that she had a sense of existence in other people's eyes.
Si Er couldn't help but smile and say, "Thank you, you're very good-looking too."
"Haha!" The other person immediately cupped their face and burst into laughter. "Everyone who knows me says that. By the way, my name is Wen Yihan, what's your name?"
"My name is Si Er."
"Si Er? Which two characters?"
Si Er thought for a moment: "Si, as in commonplace, and Er, as in renowned."
This explanation was a small wish he had for himself. Although his experiences over the years had not made him feel inferior, he still felt very lonely.
Si Er thought that even if he would never become a household name, even if he would never become famous, at least he hoped that someone would see him and remember him, so that he wouldn't feel like he had come to this world in vain.
Looking into Wen Yihan's bright eyes as he looked at him, Si Er felt as if he had finally been seen by someone.
But will this person remember me? Not sure, let's wait and see.
Wen Yihan is a sucker for good looks, and he is happy to see Si Er every day. Over time, they became friends.
Si Er found this feeling novel; in his more than ten years of life, this was the first time he had made a friend.
The other person always sees him first in a crowd, and is incredibly enthusiastic when calling his name. Even his every move is seen as a virtue by the other person.
"Wow, Er'er, you look so beautiful when you smile."
"I think Er'er's voice is so beautiful!"
"Does Er'er really like small animals? I knew Er'er was very kind-hearted."
During that time, Si Er was happy every day. Wen Yihan would introduce him to any small jobs that he found that paid well. Of course, he felt the same way.
They worked together happily every day, planning for the future together, and had endless hopes for what lay ahead.
It wasn't until a talent show widened the gap between them.
Both of them participated in that program, but Wen Yihan received all the attention, while Si Er was ignored.
Si Er wasn't jealous; she just couldn't understand why she felt so invisible.
He was eliminated in the first round and left the show to continue working outside to earn money, while Wen Yihan shone brightly on the show and became increasingly popular.
He was happy to see the other person debut successfully, but the gap between them would cause him to lose this only friend. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
