Today I went to the workshop to borrow semi-manufactured products for Shen to test my new software. I met Hui in the workshop again, who was a 18-year-old worker. When she gave me two semi-manufactured products, I could not help asking her, “why do you work here?” She stared at me in surprise. I continued voluntarily, “I mean, you’re so pretty, you don’t need to be a normal worker…” I was about to say, “you’re really wasting your good looks”, but I held my tongue.

     She said with a smile, “I think it’s really nice to work here. I didn’t have high education and other abilities, what else can I do? Besides, earning bread by my two hands is good.”

     I was too ashamed and left. Why should I feel sorry only for Hui working in the workshop? There were so many girls working in the workshop here. Just because she was the prettiest girl, I thought she was wasting her good looks. Alas, a lot of people are complaining the social ethos is becoming worse and worse. A girl who doesn’t make money by her good looks, which I even think is a pity and waste. I don’t know how many people like me, but all people like me are responsible for the social ethos going from bad to worse

     Really an offense. I need to use lime to listerize my soul now.
