"Are you trying to tell me that the bad thing isn't you, but this era?"
“I didn’t say that… I just think it’s fine this way, because fixing things is too tiring, replacing them is the easiest thing to do.”
"Is that so!"
"Ninety-nine percent of people think this way."
Amidst the rustling of leaves, I lit a cigarette and followed a truck carrying a cement mixer... I thought about some things: like relationships, and how much money one really needs to achieve great success...
But I still don't want to be like Chen Jin. I don't need that many women in my life. I've never changed. I just want to find a woman who truly understands me and love her properly.
But this is also painful.
Therefore, I think that it's not that people like to change, but that they are more afraid of pain. They might as well change to a different woman or a different man and start over. Even the most meticulously repaired things will always have cracks.

"He's going to Kunming with his dad tomorrow, so I can only ask you for help... I won't let you do it for nothing; I'll treat you to a meal next time I go to Dali."
"I'm a little unaccustomed to such sudden politeness."
"I'll get used to it eventually... By the way, for the people who want to rent the place, please keep a close eye on them. If they're sloppy and messy, I won't rent it to them no matter how much money they offer. I don't want the place to get dirty."
"knew."
After receiving my response, Yang Sisi didn't send any more messages, while I stared blankly at my phone screen for a long time...
