The gatekeeper disappeared. Fu Liqun returned the halberd to his back, faced the gate, and let out a prolonged sigh.

Zhou Sheng said, "Gege, think through it carefully. Don't open that door before thinking it through clearly."

Fu Liqun didn't look back.

Yu Hao recalled what Zhou Sheng said to him before he had first pushed his door open.

Four people went up to stand behind Fu Liqun. Fu Liqun still didn't turn back. After a long period of silence, he slowly shook his head, then turned back and said, "Did you guys ask yourselves the same question before going through this last door?"

Ou Qihang turned his head sideways to look at Fu Liqun and answered, "I didn't."

"I......un, I did." Chen Yekai thought about it for a bit, then answered, "But the problem I faced was different from yours."

Yu Hao knew that on the second morning after they returned before the New Year, Zhou Sheng and Fu Liqun had seriously discussed their careers, futures, Fu Liqun's feelings with Cen Shan, their confusion about their futures, and all of these were still thorns in Fu Liqun's heart.

Although Fu Liqun had thought about what path he wanted to take in the future, when he faced a challenge regarding his personal values and how he should live the rest of his life, he still had not truly, completely figured it out.

"What about you?" Fu Liqun asked Yu Hao.

"Mine was different too." Yu Hao said, "At that time in my life, I still hadn't faced the same anxieties as you do now."

Ou Qihang said, "You should be the kind of person who wouldn't really worry too much about material things ba, Yu Hao."

"Yeah." Yu Hao smiled, "Perhaps it was because of my childhood."

So the five of them just continued standing like that in front of the door and didn't go in. Fu Liqun looked up at the primitive patterns on the door. Zhou Sheng suddenly said, "My dear wife, counsel Gege a bit? It should be your turn at this kind of time."

Yu Hao, "I really don't know what to say."

Ou Qihang smiled, "Don't you always have a way, somehow? When it comes to brainwashing, you're even better at it than Uncle Kai."

Chen Yekai said, "Even more amazing than pyramid schemes."

Yu Hao didn't know if he should laugh or cry, yet Fu Liqun was staring at the door seriously.

"Which path do you want to choose?" Yu Hao suddenly said, "Sometimes, I feel like the problems that both you and Zhou Sheng face are very similar."

"Which path?" Fu Liqun muttered.

Yu Hao said, "Become a CEO, marry sis-in-law, and embark on a path to the pinnacle of your life?"

Fu Liqun said, "If it's possible, who wouldn't want that? Who wouldn't want success? But the thing is, I can't do it!"

"If you can do it," Yu Hao thought about it, "Then would you walk forward and push the door open? Gege, have you ever thought about what kind of success you would regard as true success? Is it a success in the eyes of the people in this world, or success in the truest sense for you?'

This was a belief that Yu Hao has always insisted upon as well.

Yu Hao continued, "Is there only one way to succeed in this world? In the eyes of others, is the path that's filled with all sorts of riches the only path that's considered right? I don't know about others, but I know in my heart clearly, that for me, I have far more than just one choice in my life. I believe that I'm currently walking on the right path. And more importantly, I've never regretted choosing it."
