EP 03

Jian Ci had suicidal thoughts.

His boyfriend of three years who was involved in illegal fundraising activities, took all his money and fled. The victims of his boyfriend’s fraud came looking for Jian Ci, claiming that he had to bear the joint responsibility, and demanded for him to pay. As an intern who had just graduated, where would he get all the money to repay them when he had not even paid off his student loans.

After going through a series of terrors, threats, and even injuries, Jian Ci thought there would not be anything worse than that. Only until the bank seized the house that his parents had left for him, did he realize that he had been so unreasonably wronged. His ex had taken his house as a collateral, and he wasn’t even sure when he was deceived to sign the papers.

Jian Ci broke down from his own stupidity.

The next day, he went to work at his intern company as usual.

Standing at the ground floor of “Bai Sheng”, one had to lift up their head and strain their neck to see the top of this large building. This was the third tallest building in the whole of City Z. Jian Ci thought that if he jumped from the top, he would definitely die a tragic death.

In the morning, the Human Resource Manager called him in, and informed him that they received a ton of complaint calls. In addition, the security had also stopped a bunch of people who came and made a fuss. After some questioning, they found out that these people were all after Jian Ci. In order to not affect the image of the company and the other employers…

Ah, they’ve even found their way here.

Even before the manager had finished his sentence, Jian Ci understood – he had lost his job too.

Hence, Jian Ci discreetly walked into the elevator that would take him up to the highest floor. He wanted to go to the rooftop and think about life.

He was on the ninth floor when he pushed the button to go up. The elevator raised from the ground floor to the ninth floor and when the door opened, there was only one person standing inside.

Jian Ci did not bother with who the person was. He glanced at the floor buttons and after realizing that the button of the highest floor was lighted up, he quietly stood at a corner and stared into space.
