Chapter 1: A Frustrating Life

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

The principal initially intended to stand up and put an end to this utterly absurd philosophy class, yet he was so intrigued by the question that he temporarily suppressed his overwhelming anger

Teacher, may I ask how we can lead a wonderful life without being... deceived?

After finishing the meal, I brewed a cup of fine Tieguanyin tea, moved a summer lounge chair, and sat on the balcony, sipping tea while watching the bustling crowd rushing by, all in pursuit of fame and fortune. The sense of comfort in my heart is beyond words

I will find two plastic bags to put the shoes in

The big girl is angry, this sandpit emperor is going too far. You may not respect women, but you cannot fail to respect a beauty like her, damn it

Upon entering the Xia Dian community, I greeted my neighbor, Mrs. Wang, exchanged a few casual remarks, and then, under the pointed comments of several women, Zhou Yi swayed into his room. Following that, he stretched his legs into the kitchen, washed his hands, and began preparing a meal, flipping ingredients in the pots as he cooked lunch

The large loli who had just asked a question stood up, her face flushed and her heart racing like a startled deer, hesitating and stammering. Maimai silently gazed at Zhou Yi, causing this guy, who was known for his laziness and lack of seriousness, to feel a bit guilty: "Uh, this female classmate, do you have any other questions"

Where?

I took off my shoes and am barefoot

The Xiaodian Road vegetable market is very close

Little Flower, I just finished my meal, and you called me. Are you intentionally trying to cause me indigestion?

This is what life is all about

Standing on the podium, Zhou Yi lazily yawned in front of more than fifty first-year students. He then cast a half-smiling glance at a first-year female student in the front row, who was strikingly beautiful and as pure as a lotus emerging from clear water. He slowly said: "Life... is like a vast sandpit..."

The Book of Changes continues to entice this group of big boys and little girls with an incomparably sighing tone and gentle gaze, simultaneously appealing to both auditory and visual senses: "Therefore, I have ultimately summarized a philosophical saying: Life is a process of being deceived by one's father; being deceived is our life..."

Although it was just one person dining, Zhou Yi did not skimp on himself. He spent over half an hour preparing three dishes and a soup: stir-fried pork with green peppers, sweet and sour ribs, garlic broccoli, and clear soup with crucian carp. There were both meat and vegetables, as well as fish and meat. Although it could not compare to the skills of a top-tier chef, it was certainly much better than the offerings of an ordinary restaurant

As a foodie, Zhou Yi is absolutely uncompromising when it comes to food; even when dining alone, he would never settle for less. This is why he feels extreme indignation towards those who label him as a 'lazy person.' He is clearly a principled 'idle person,' and there is a fundamental difference between him and a pig.

This is the sound of girls clapping their hands, turning their small hands red.

It is still wrong

Zhou Yi suddenly felt that he was a true philosopher, and moreover, the kind who is sober while everyone else is intoxicated

Teacher, I have a question

I said to you, young man, why are you so lazy? It's only a few steps, and you still want to take a taxi! Have you ever considered your parents? Is it easy for them to earn money? Are you just going to spend it recklessly like this?

I ... ...

Master, at the Xiadian Vegetable Market

With this messy, unkempt hair and an outdated, slicked-back hairstyle that is at least ten years behind the trend, along with a lazy and lackadaisical expression, it is evident that this individual is a social parasite, completely unrelated to elite talent. Could he possibly be someone who graduated from Kyoto Medical University?

Well, this student, please answer a question from the teacher first

Incredible! So exhilarating! It embodies the impact found in postmodern art, an absolute stream of consciousness. This teacher is truly a once-in-a-century talent

Years of brainwashing and debilitating education are like three towering mountains, and even the remarkably resilient comrades of the post-90s generation cannot simply overturn them at will

This is a placeholder text.

Let's see what this kid has to say, anyway, he has to be driven away...

As Zhou Yi stepped out of the gates of Chudu Medical University, he felt a sense of relief, as if returning to the embrace of a free world. He took a deep breath of fresh air through his high, Greek-like nose and then quickly walked to the roadside, hailing a taxi and lazily getting in.

Boom boom boom—this is the sound of the boys fiercely pounding on their desks, their iron fists invincible

At this moment, the Book of Changes appears to be a fusion of a poet and a philosopher, captivating the innocent little lambs before it.

The answer is to stand still, gaze at the blue sky, enjoy the gentle breeze, and feel the warm grains of sand beneath your feet... Ah, this is what life is all about...

Just as his first love, Maria, that French girl, once said, his heart is too soft; how could he be deceived by this kid and the connections behind him

Although the post-90s generation of young women is not lacking in rebellious spirit, the stirrings of adolescence have led them to change boyfriends faster than they change their phones, the traditional education they have received over the years still makes them question the teachings of the I Ching

Oh, Maria ... www.hetushucom.com ...

If it were not for the Book of Changes, perhaps this arduous task would have to be undertaken by the descendants of this post-90s girl in 2020 or even in the 2030s

Is this the outstanding master's student from Kyoto Medical University? Whoever cares, anyway, the president will not believe it

Even if the principal's head has been squeezed by a door, he knows how wrong his decision was to allow this guy to conduct a trial class

I assure God, I did not wave a red cloth; I simply wore a pair of red shorts. Is that not acceptable?

The taxi driver turned around in astonishment, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears

Sandpit Emperor

Zhou Yi smiled brightly and radiantly

The Book of Changes is quite perplexed; what has happened to this world that even teachers can no longer speak the truth

The principal, sitting in the back hall listening to the lecture, immediately spat out the premium Tieguanyin tea he had just drunk, nearly choking to death.

Then what do you say is the answer I don't care any longer

Leisurely glancing at the taxi driver, Zhou Yi added, "Laziness is laziness, leisure is leisure, you may take your time to comprehend..."

In the vast land of Shenzhou, you are everywhere. Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will arrive.

The taxi driver looked up and down at Zhou Yi a few times, confirming that this passenger's mental state and intelligence should be within the normal range. He then said somewhat hesitantly: "Young man, the vegetable market on Xiedian Road is just a one-minute drive from here, and it would only take about four or five minutes to walk. Are you sure you want to take a taxi?"

If there is a slight sense of unease, it is regarding my performance today, which truly feels somewhat unworthy of Comrade Xiaohua—my good brother who has been sleeping on the upper bunk for the past four years of university

Christians feel as if they have suddenly acquired the broad-mindedness akin to that of the Buddha and the ancestors of the scriptures

Ugh, you pig! I knew it, you must be holed up at home again. I say, Lao San, what exactly do you want to do?

Upon connecting the call, Zhou Yi began to joke around

As soon as Zhou Yi thought of classmate Xiaohua, his phone began to ring incessantly: "Fried rice with eggs, the simplest yet most difficult dish, all food lovers in the world must pass this test, fried rice with eggs..."

The classroom was filled with the fragrance, odor, and allure that emanated from the excessive evaporation of adolescent hormones, instantly giving this philosophy class a hint of the atmosphere of a health education lesson.

Puff—!

"Staying in place, isn't that just a lack of ambition and drive, isn't it just laziness?"

The call came from none other than Xiao Hua. Zhu Xiao Hua

Hmm?

Zhou Yi dropped this sentence and said nothing more, for the principal had already charged towards him like an enraged bull, pushing and shoving him out of the classroom

The girl who will develop calluses... and is your foot beautiful?

Life is like a vast sandbox, so the faster you run and the higher you jump, the deeper you will sink, my classmates

I assure the Minister of Education that the principal is indeed a qualified Christian; were it not for the Buddha's grace, he would not have given this damned lazy fellow even the slightest opportunity

In an instant, the big boy and the little girls presented Zhou Yi with a yellow emperor's crown, fortunately, it was not green

"Indeed, quite certain..." Zhou Yi lazily reclined in the back seat, slightly furrowing his brow. It was truly strange; why were all the taxi drivers he encountered so talkative, just like books?

Then, with an additional two liang of rice wine, a large bowl of specially purchased Dongbei Wuchang tribute rice, valued at ten yuan per jin, was served. Zhou Yi enjoyed it immensely, savoring the sweet and fragrant taste, his eyes squinting into a narrow slit, resembling a pig that had just indulged in a hearty feast

The student who just asked me what my philosophy of life is, I can respond to her...

Super flamboyant chubby brother Zhu Xiaohua

Wrong! There aren't many plastic bags in life; they have all been taken by the supermarket for sale. And are you sure you have any change?

"Master, if you do not drive now, I may have to file a complaint against you for refusing to take me..."

A leisurely life does not equate to laziness. Take your time to understand, classmate

Fortunately, the principal expelled me from the classroom; otherwise, if I had truly become a teacher, such a leisurely life would likely have been difficult to maintain. Thus, one might say, a blessing in disguise.

The Book of Changes seems a bit constrained, as it unexpectedly imitates a young girl, slightly tilting her head and asking: "If you find yourself in a vast sandpit from which you can never escape, and you are not wearing combat boots but do not wish for sand to get into your shoes, what should you do?"

Thinking of the hardships of life and his disappointing son, the taxi driver was suddenly filled with righteous indignation, his blood boiling with anger rising from the depths of his heart, and he looked at Zhou Yi as if assessing a class enemy

As Zhou Yi walked out of the Xiaodian Vegetable Market, his hands were filled with chicken, duck, fish, meat, and various vegetables. This time, he had bought all the groceries for the week, as there was a large refrigerator at home.

It is evident that this girl is still a very reserved and good-natured young lady, exhibiting strong loli traits. She tilted her head, smiled at Zhou Yi, and finally posed a question that was extremely hypocritical and utterly ridiculous.
