Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled - Chapter 1018: 766: The Profligate Son

Chapter 1018: Chapter 766: The Profligate Son

The job of a community security guard, without even mentioning the salary, is considered the lowest rung of society in most people’s impressions.

It’s on par with delivery workers, sanitation workers, and cleaning ladies, all professions that receive no respect whatsoever.

Sometimes, when they run into some unreasonable and bored residents, they often have to endure being scolded.

For the pitiful monthly salary, most of the time they can only swallow their pride and keep quiet.

Chen Pingsheng usually doesn’t get involved in such matters, treating himself as a leisurely person.

In the afternoons, if Little Ji Ye had the time, he would often come to the community to play with his grandpa.

The little guy was just as sensible as An’an was at his age.

And because he was often generous and helpful, he had the best relationships among the security guards, who would all greet Little Ji Ye with a smile.

When Little Ji Ye saw a group of kids playing soccer in the community, he wanted to join in, along with his friend Liu Chao who came with him.

After watching for a while, he politely asked if he could join, and the chubby boy quickly agreed.

So, Little Ji Ye and Yang Chao started playing together.

But in soccer, it’s inevitable to bump or get hurt, and maybe Little Ji Ye kicked a bit too hard, hitting the ball against the chubby boy.

The chubby boy quickly started crying, and his mom rushed over, pointing at Little Ji Ye’s nose and scolding, asking why he hurt her son and where his parents were.

When Chen Pingsheng came over, he tried to explain kindly, but the chubby boy’s mother insisted, “Aren’t you a community security guard? Since when can security guards bring their kids here to play? Where’s your captain? Let him talk to me.”

Her fierce expression clearly indicated she wanted to report him to the captain.

The security guard captain often borrowed money from him, and although he apologized nominally, he wouldn’t really say anything.

It was still Little Ji Ye who stood up and said, “Don’t scold my grandpa, I only accidentally kicked him.”

“Just an accidental kick, huh? Children like you from the lower class shouldn’t be brought to a high-end community like ours to play.”

You see… it’s only those online young people who haven’t entered society yet that think people are equal.

Once you step into society, family background, occupation, and such divide people into different tiers.

Children from wealthy families wouldn’t encounter such things, but they would have other issues.

Families with ordinary means, especially those with less money, often have their confidence and individuality eroded by various experiences.

“Alright, alright, it’s just kids playing, don’t think that just because you have money, you can look down on others.”

The lines coming from Chen Pingsheng’s mouth felt a bit awkward, but what else could he do, he was just an ordinary security guard.

That woman really had her eyes up in the sky, because for this tiny issue, she persistently complained to the captain and even pulled in the property management.

She even stirred it up in the residents’ group chat.

Eventually, the property management issued a notice that security guards or staff could no longer bring kids into the community to play.

The punishment was applied to all the security guards and ordinary workers in the community.

As Little Ji Ye went home, he kept apologizing to Chen Pingsheng, saying, “Grandpa, I’m sorry, I caused trouble again.”

“What trouble did you cause? That chubby boy is just too delicate. He cries over such a small thing, my Ji Ye is much better.”

“Grandpa, thank you. I’ll definitely earn a lot of money when I grow up, so that these arrogant rich people can’t look down on us anymore.”

“Hey Ji Ye, not all rich people are arrogant. Only those who are rich and conceited, those who look down from above.”

Chen Pingsheng quickly explained to him, hoping the boy wouldn’t see rich people as his opponents.

His family was quite wealthy, after all.

Unexpectedly, or perhaps expectedly, the situation took a turn.

Three days later, Chen Pingsheng was actually fired by the property management, a great disgrace.

He had been an outstanding founder for a lifetime and now, in his old age, he was fired due to the constant complaints from that chubby boy’s mom.

Thinking about it made him angry.

When An’an came over on her worn-out bike, she laughed at first, but then got so angry that steam seemed to come out of her nostrils.

For such a trivial matter, the chubby boy’s mom clung to it relentlessly, without even offering dismissal compensation.

This was because their family had money; if it were an ordinary family, her actions would have caused significant harm.

Chen Pingsheng felt there was no need to retaliate, but An’an couldn’t stand it.

Her dignified dad now had a blemish because of this boy’s mom.

After returning to the corporation, she quickly investigated the chubby boy’s family situation.

Their house was bought on a loan, with payments ongoing for three to four years.

The husband was a leader in a small company, and the woman herself was a manager at a luxury store, earning a hefty annual income.

She managed to get both the husband and wife fired, making it so they couldn’t find good jobs in Peng City.

Let them experience being low-level workers.

After realizing that his grandfather lost his job because of that one kick, Little Ji Ye became more sensitive.

He became more cautious about causing trouble, to put it bluntly, his courage was slowly diminishing.

It wasn’t intentional, but their family couldn’t bear much risk, so he had to become more cautious.

For ordinary people, their family’s ability to handle risks is infinitely low.

This is why many ordinary college graduates are severely lacking in confidence when they first step into society.

Little Ji Ye was gradually going through this process.

In stark contrast was Song Wu’s eldest son, Song Chaoqun, who actually beat someone almost to death in college.

He even drove over the person afterward.

And the reason was merely that the boy talked a bit more with a school belle he liked.

Song Chaoqun declared in college that since he liked the school belle, she should be his.

Anyone who dared talk to her would be beaten to death by him.

Song Wu had two children but didn’t really care for them much, always leaving them to Grandma Liu Fen. Liu Fen spoiled them terribly, and would immediately rush over to back her grandson whenever something happened.

Th𝗂ʂ 𝘤hа̄pţꬲr 𝙞𝙨 pɵ𝘴𝙩𝖾𝒹 b𝙮 Ḱ𝐢ţ℮𝗇◎ⱽ℮𝙡

Over time, this indulgent and domineering playboy attitude formed.

In fact, Song Chaoqun fully had the qualifications to be a playboy, even a top-tier one.

His mother had a fortune of over ten billion, not to mention his aunt, Song Yanxi, who was truly formidable.

There was nothing in the Jianghu that his aunt couldn’t handle, giving him such family confidence, with his grandmother indulging him endlessly.

This gave him boundless courage.

Past minor skirmishes aside, many were quietly smoothed over by Liu Fen herself.

She knew what kind of character her son-in-law had, so she never dared to tell him what Song Chaoqun was doing.

This time was different; the beaten person was not a regular person.

Their parents had only one son and a family fortune in the tens of millions. The mother brought a pack of relatives to the university, protesting with banners.

They even called in numerous reporters, threatening to make this a big deal online.

Just after Little Ji Ye had been bullied by the chubby boy’s mom, he grew to despise these bullying wealthy individuals.

If he heard about this, and knew it was his cousin who did it, he’d likely rethink his whole perspective on life.

As expected, with the Chen Family’s level of wealth, many second-generation heirs had already started turning into playboys.

These people always believed that with the Chen Family backing them, even if they caused the sky to fall, Chen Pingsheng could cover for them.

In fact, he could indeed cover for them, but whether he would or not was another matter.
