Chapter 1: Back to childhood

cold.

  Xia Shao woke up from the biting cold, with a noisy sound in her ears, making a mess, making her confused for a while. She was shaking her teeth with cold, her hands and feet were already stiff, but she couldn't stop shaking. The cold stimulated her to recall what had happened.

  After graduating from university, I was doing complicated work in a real estate company. I often had to follow the project until two or three at night, and lived a nine-to-five office life with dark circles, but had to work overtime at night. In the first-tier cities, I am busy from morning to night every day with a salary that is the envy of second- and third-tier cities, but only myself knows that this salary is in the capital, except for food and clothing, even a two-square-meter house cannot be bought in a year. .

  Working for seven years and working as a department manager, Xia Shao gradually realized the rules of society and the difficulty of life. But there is a kind of perseverance that a girl rarely finds in her bones. In the face of pressure, her way to relieve herself is to go out for a run and exercise every morning, rain or shine.

  For her habit, the few friends are puzzled. Because Xia Shao is a lazy girl in her leisure time, except for working hours. She is like a cat and can't wait to sleep on the sofa in her small apartment.

  But only Xia Shao knew that she did this because she was refreshed after morning exercises, and she was easily in good condition at work. Only when the condition is good can the performance be outstanding and there will be opportunities for promotion. Secondly, the body is the capital of the revolution. How can we work hard without a body? As for the third reason, it is actually to save money on the gym.

  The cold winter in Beijing came early, and there was just a snowfall last night. At five o'clock in the morning, Xia Shao got up, dressed and went for a run.

   Before dawn, a park near the small apartment had been cleaned by sanitation. Xia Shao was jogging along a cobblestone path, but he heard a call for help.

The call for help was not too loud. The public security in this park is usually okay. Xia Shao is not sure if someone has encountered a robbery or something. At this time, it is still dark. She is a girl who is not afraid of it, but she gradually heard it. The call for help had changed. After all, she couldn't pretend not to hear, so she ran over.

  After looking for it, I found out that an old man who was doing morning exercises fell into the lake!

This park is a bit big, and the lake area is also wide. Usually, to prevent people from falling into the lake, there are guardrails on the roadside, but two guardrails on this road are broken at some point. It is estimated that the elderly are walking along the road. During the morning exercise, he slipped and fell into the lake.

  Xia Shao immediately lay on the ground and stretched out her hand several times, but found that she couldn't catch the old man at all. After looking around, she didn't find anyone else passing by the morning exercise. At this time, the old man's hands were already a bit stiff, and the lake water was too cold. The old man flopped twice in the lake, and he was about to sink.

  Even though it was dark, Xia Shao could see the old man's face clearly with the light of the street lamp in the distance. It was an old man with a very kind face, with deep crow's feet in the corners of his eyes, which shows that he is usually a cheerful and cheerful person. At that moment, for some reason, there was a kind of pain in Xia Shao's heart.

  In the year she first worked, the grandmother who had watched her grow up died of a serious illness. At that time, she was following a project, and the family knew that she could not ask for a holiday, for fear that she would quit her job and go home. You know, working in the capital is decent from the perspective of her hometown. Naturally, the family didn't want her to quit, so they concealed the news from her. It was not until the end of the project that she received the first bonus, and she called home with a smile and said that she wanted to buy a beautiful Tang suit for her grandma in the capital for the New Year, only to learn that her grandma had passed away for more than a month! At that time, she couldn't accept it at all, and immediately flew back by plane, crying in front of the tombstone for a whole day.
