Chapter 1219: Chapter 1223: Suddenly Tired Chapter 1219: Chapter 1223: Suddenly Tired Within just a few years, the only one who rose from nothing to going public, it seems, was no one else than Zhang Xiaohui.”
Old Bai laughed, “You’ve discovered it, it’s him.”
Xia Yangyang was incredibly surprised; Zhang Xiaohui was one of China’s top five e-comrce giants and also the youngest.
He had already suddenly amassed a net worth of over a hundred billion and stood as a legendary figure in the clouds.
Xia Yangyang truly hadn’t expected Old Bai to be his neighbor.
Xia Yangyang said excitedly, “Oh my God, Old Bai, for you to be acquainted with such a major figure, it’s simply incredible. I can’t believe he grew up in that kind of environnt; he must be the pride of your hotown. If he were to return now, it would truly be a case of ‘dressed in fine silk and returning to his hotown.’
Old Bai replied, “He is quite remarkable, but he has never returned to his hotown. He’s a big-shot philanthropist, donating a lot of money every year to charity, yet that muddy path outside his ho has never been repaired.”
Xia Yangyang was sowhat astonished, “Why?”
Old Bai said, “Initially, whenever people in our village talked about him, they were all very proud, but as ti passed, they started to think he was ungrateful.”
Old Bai took a sip of his drink and continued, “I know what everyone thinks, they all feel he was raised on the charity of others. ‘A drop of water shall be repaid with a gushing spring’ they say, let alone considering his current capabilities, it would be no more than lifting a finger. No one has benefited from him, and thus, everyone feels a bit resentful. I thought the sa at first, but only my mother said, he doesn’t owe it to anyone.”
Xia Yangyang actually had so doubts herself.
Xia Yangyang murmured, “Indeed, he doesn’t owe it to anyone, it’s a personal choice, but I can’t understand, if it were , I would definitely help those who once helped .”
Old Bai said, “Later, by a very coincidental chance, I t him, and we chatted for a while. At that ti, I also asked him this question. He told that although he has now achieved success, he regards the past of relying on the charity of others as the sha of his life. He felt it was charity, accepted out of necessity rather than true gratitude. He doesn’t want to be in contact with people from his past, doesn’t want to rember the details because those faces remind him of his most humble monts. He said that even though he is now a billionaire, he still feels lower before those who have seen his wounds.”
Xia Yangyang thoughtfully said, “But why? Why would he feel that way?”
Old Bai said, “I guess it’s the sa with Gong Xue’er for you; having seen her at her lowest, she still harbors feelings of inferiority inside. So she wants to step on you to prove her strength, and that’s probably why she betrayed you.”
Xia Yangyang asked, “Does everyone feel that way?”
“Not everyone feels that way, but everyone has their own dark corners within their hearts. The reason I tell you this is to let you know, these are issues she needs to question herself about, not yours. You don’t need to bother yourself over soone else’s dark nature,” Old Bai advised.
Xia Yangyang beca a lot more cheerful.
Indeed, why should she bother herself over Gong Xue’er’s issues?
She’ll just have to deal with whatever cos her way.
Xia Yangyang said, “Old Bai, I’ve gotten a bit tired of staying at the TV station; it actually makes miss the days when I was a paparazzi with you at Cherry News Agency.”
Old Bai said, “Television stations are indeed deep waters, not as free as the news agency. In fact, from the ti you were able to ntor Xiaorong, I knew you wouldn’t stay long at the television station.”
