Jake hissed at Charlie’s irrelevant response, “Do you think it’s funny? It’s actually an honor to let you work at the construction site!”
Charlie nodded with a laugh. “Alright, I know, I get it. I’ll arrange it for you.”
Jake was irritated by his ambiguous remark and chided, “Crazy!”
Then, he added, “As an experienced person, let me give you some advice. You are still young, go out and find something serious to do. You may still be successful in the coming days.”
“What? Did you think working in construction is an obscure job? No, it’s not. Do you know Arnold Schwarzenegger? He was laying bricks and started his own construction business. Okay, his business failed, but he became famous, didn’t he?”
“Besides, look at the latest trends. TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook are so popular right now, you could register for an account and post some of your daily work at the construction site, maybe you will become famous!”
“By the way, I have a Snapchat account. Do you want to follow me?”
Jake asked disdainfully, “Oh, you, as a househusband, have a Snapchat account, huh? What’s your username? Aurous’s biggest loser?”
Charlie chuckled, “A househusband? I’m an amazing son-in-law!”
“Amazing son-in-law?” Jake glared at Charlie in contempt. “You? Amazing? Oh please, can you be less cocky? If you are amazing, then am I Godlike, a deity, a Maker then?”
“You? You are just a muddy son-in-law.”
“A muddy son-in-law? What do you mean?”
Charlie laughed. “The son-in-law who carries bricks! Don’t you understand this?”
“Fuck!” Jake cursed. “How dare you!”
Charlie ignored him. He carried Mr. Lee and walked swiftly up the stairs to the classroom.
Mr. Lee patted Charlie’s hand and said, “Thank you, young man. You can face humiliation with humor and stand your ground, you have a bright and promising future.”
Then, Mr. Lee turned his wheelchair and entered the room.
Jake muttered in a scornful tone, “Huh, bloody old man. I wonder where he can tell that this bugger is promising.”
Charlie couldn’t be bothered by his sarcasm. He was not far from his destiny anyway.
With the arrival of Mr. Lee, a loud cheer echoed across the room as the guys came forward to greet their teacher.
The relationship between teachers and students in their era could even be described as a relationship between father and son.
Mr. Lee nodded with a pleasant sigh as he looked at his students who were now with wrinkled faces and grayish hair.
He had been a lecturer all his life, and he had students all over the country and even the world. He felt no regrets as he looked at his students.
“Mr. Lee, give us another lecture!” Someone suggested with a sobbing voice.
The rest of the group nodded simultaneously.
Mr. Lee nodded, tears flooding his eyes. He sat behind the podium, his fingers stroking the rough surface, and he slowly said, “Good morning, class.”
“Good morning, Mr. Lee,” The crowd shouted in unison.
Mr. Lee smiled lightly. “I’m too old to even stand on my feet, and I can’t shout like I used to do, hence, the quality of the lecture may not be as good as before. Please accept my apology.”
