perfect life

He Zihan returned to the place that could barely be called "home" - a small shack.

Summer is as hot as a huge steamer. If you stay in it during the day, your whole body will be soaked in less than 3 minutes. If you stay longer, you will definitely faint from heat stroke, or simply die from the heat.

At the hottest time, one night can't dissipate the heat of the day, so in summer, He Zihan simply sleeps on a bench in the park, so that it can be slightly cooler.

When the winter wind blows in, it hurts like a knife cuts on the body.

There was no particularly thick quilt in the house, and when it was coldest, He Zihan could only put a lot of waste newspapers under the thin quilt—he picked it up from the side of the road, so that it would be warmer.The quilt on it was still the one when grandma was alive, and the cotton batting was already very thin, but He Zihan couldn't afford a new quilt.

He could only take out all his clothes and put them on the quilt to keep warm, so as not to freeze to death—he was very afraid of the cold.

He Zihan lived in this shack for nearly ten years.

He has no parents, nor any relatives.

Didn't even live in an orphanage.

After his grandmother passed away when he was seven years old, He Zihan lived alone in this shack—and he didn't know whose house it was.

However, in the past ten years, it has not been blown down by a typhoon, nor has there been a fire. Even when the earthquake in Taiwan and the aftershocks hit City C, it was safe and sound.

He Zihan didn't know how he felt about this room.

Sometimes it's just a shelter, so that he doesn't have to sleep on the street on a cold winter night; sometimes it's more like a warm haven, because there is no other place that belongs to him.

He is 16 years old this year, which should be the youngest and frivolous age.Boys at this age are just sprouting grass, swaying and graceful.

Either play ambiguous games with the girl you like, or gallop around the basketball court or football field with the boys you can play with all day long.

However, He Zihan's life has nothing to do with the so-called youth and vitality.

After putting down his schoolbag and changing into his thick work uniform, He Zihan rode the bicycle that he himself had forgotten where he picked it up, and headed quickly towards the construction site.

Too much time was wasted by those gangsters in the alley just now, if he was later, he would be late.

If you are late, you will not get the full attendance bonus. Although it is only 50 yuan, 50 yuan can be enough for him for many days.

It took 5 minutes of desperately trying to get to the site before work started.

"Hey, why is Xiaohan late today? We've already finished dinner." A senior at the construction site smiled and patted He Zihan on the shoulder.

He Zihan avoided his hand indiscriminately, pursing the corners of his mouth.

He has always been here to eat cheap meals with these men. The monthly food expenses only cost 60 yuan. Although it is not delicious, there are fish and meat, and occasionally there are some seasonal fruits that are not very good. .

Many years later, when He Zihan knew that the construction site provided food for free, he just laughed it off.

He came late today, although he was only 5 minutes late, but the dinner was gone, and he had to work for 6 hours later...

He Zihan subconsciously looked at his shriveled stomach, shrugged his shoulders indifferently, put on thick work gloves, and walked towards the pile of concrete.
