Life is Hard, But you have to be Sweet.

Due to delaying time at the public security bureau, Su He was not able to take the same flight as Shen Yuanzhong. At 4pm he finally arrived at the Capital International Airport.

Su He did not have a suitcase, only a large plastic bag containing all his belongings. Coming out of the airport, he looked at the distance on his mobile navigation and prepared to take the subway.

Just after walking two hundred meters away, a red Ferrari convertible stopped in front of Su He. In the driver's seat, Bei Leqiao wore sunglasses and said to Li Ziting next to him: "Look, this is the good-looking man in your eyes. Do you want to roam the streets with him carrying a plastic bag to pick up junk?"

Li Ziting glanced at Su He and lowered her head.

"Buzz Buzz Buzz Buzz..."

Bei Leqiao's mouth curved up as he stepped on the gas pedal and raced away, leaving Su He standing there dumbfounded.

"System, how can you endure this? Don't you give me a pretentious, face-slapping choice?"

"Do you believe I'll uninstall you?"

"Damn you, wimp!"

Su He spat on the ground. No matter how he scolded, the system did not react.

"Hey, young man, you can't spit here casually. The fine is 5 yuan." An auntie wearing a red armband walked up to Su He and handed him a fine slip.

"Auntie, do you know who I am?" Su He asked.

The auntie put her hands on her hips and glared at Su He, "How would I know who you are? No matter who you are, you still have to... Hey, don't run!... Bunny!"

Sitting on the subway, Su He called Shen Yuanzhong.

"Hello, Uncle Shen, I arrived in the capital...on the subway...No issues on your end, right..."

"Su He, we're fine here...Today the doctor did a full body check on Yueyue and said her body functions are quite good..."

"Uncle Shen, how much does it cost per day?"

"Four to five thousand..."

After hanging up, Su He was somewhat silent. At this rate, they could only stay in the hospital for four months. This was not a TV plot, it was brutal reality!

He clenched his fist tightly. This time, no matter what, he would not let Shen Yue be kicked out of the hospital. 150,000 per month, he had to find a way to earn money!

As a man, what he needed to do was not accompany Shen Yue in the hospital, but think of ways to make money so Shen Yue could get the best treatment.

Looking at the various rewards he got from the system, the navigation map, takeaway order acceptance rate, takeaway order assistant, these three could ensure he could become the king of takeaway deliveries if he worked desperately hard. Working at his time and physical limit, the most he could make in a month was forty to fifty thousand.

Wound suturing skills - as an outstanding vocational high school graduate with an excavator operation certificate, let alone apply for a job at a hospital, even a veterinarian would not want him.

As for grappling martial arts, perhaps he could find a martial arts school to be a coach, but the income would probably be less than delivering takeout.

Cooking skills were also ruled out, leaving only performance and singing.

As everyone knew, the entertainment industry was where the most money was made. Stars could easily accumulate wealth in one endorsement, one movie, that ordinary people could not accumulate in decades or even generations.

Su He had never dreamed that one day, he would have such thoughts, but in order to make money, as long as it was not illegal, he was willing to do anything.

The appearance and rewards of the system were too random. He could only rely on existing resources to plan out reasonable solutions, after all, his system would not feed him.

Two kilometers away from Capital People’s Hospital, Su He found a cheap hotel that only cost 65 yuan per day. He then walked to the hospital and came to Shen Yue’s ward.

In the ward, the white-haired Shen Yuanzhong was eating. On the bowl of white rice there were only a few greens. Renting in the capital was too expensive. They had rented a small apartment for 4,800 yuan per month. If not for too much luggage, they would rather sleep in the hallway of the hospital.

"Su He?"

Behind him, Xiang Wanrong walked over carrying a basin of hot water.

"Auntie Xiang..." Su He went up and took the basin, smiling, "Let me take it!"

Shen Yuanzhong was called out by Xiang Wanrong, leaving only Su He alone in the ward.

"Yueyue, we came to the capital... You have to get well soon. I've made plans already. First we'll go to Tiananmen Square, then the Forbidden City..."

After staying in the ward for over an hour until the nurse came in to change Shen Yue's dressings, Su He left the hospital.

Aimlessly walking down the street, the prosperous and bustling scenery of the capital came into view. Su He walked onto a pedestrian overpass where a long-haired man was singing with a phone set up to livestream beside him.

"When I walk on every street here

My heart never seems to be calm

In addition to the roar of engines and electric sounds

I seem to hear his piercing heartbeat

..."

The man's voice was thick and slightly hoarse, giving a unique flavor. Many people stopped to watch, taking out their phones to record while others took out their phones to scan the QR code at the man's feet and tipped him.

After finishing singing a song, the man sat down to rest. Su He came over and asked, "Bro, how much can you earn in a day?"

The man glanced at Su He and laughed, "I only sing three songs every night, probably just over a hundred bucks... What, do you want to try too?"

Su He showed an embarrassed smile. That was less than he earned delivering takeout. It was said online hosts made big money, but it seemed to depend on the person, every industry was not easy.

At this time, people kept sending messages on the livestream screen.

"Bro Feng, the passerby is so handsome, make him sing a couple lines."

"Bro Feng, Bro Feng, I want that little brother's contact info..."

"Wow, such a handsome little brother... No, Bro Feng, keep him. I'm taking a plane to the capital immediately..."

The man's online name was Crazy Brother Feng. His fans all called him Bro Feng in the live chat.

Seeing so many people sending gifts, Bro Feng's eyes lit up. He looked at Su He and said, "Bro, my fans want me to let you sing. How about singing one song?"

"Forget it. I can't sing... Besides, I'm hungry. I'll go eat some noodles and sleep." Su He was going to check out the takeaway pickup points in the area tomorrow morning. He couldn't keep idle after coming to the capital. He would start delivering takeout while looking around.

The screen was still flooding with messages. Bro Feng both loved and hated it. Currently he only had over 50,000 fans. During each stream, if 500 people watched he would be very excited. In just a short while, the viewer count had exceeded 1,000 and was still going up.

These people were clearly attracted by Su He's looks. Bro Feng had already added a beauty filter, so Su He looked even more handsome on screen than in person.

"Bro, don't go yet..." Bro Feng was about to go crazy. He hurriedly pulled Su He, "Just help sing one song... I'll treat you to a meal after... You can chat with them a bit..."

Worried Su He would be a bad singer, Bro Feng pulled him in front of the camera and said, "Fans, I caught the little brother you wanted. He is very handsome. Let me turn off the beauty filter for you all to see..."

No need for that... Su He smiled bitterly. He didn't expect Bro Feng to turn off the beauty filter directly. A dramatic scene ensued on the screen. No one continued praising Su He for being good looking. Instead they unanimously sent: Bro Feng, turn the beauty filter back on. I feel like throwing up.

Bro Feng looked at Su He in confusion and asked, "Am I really that ugly?"

Su He stared at Bro Feng in astonishment and blurted out, "Have you never looked in a mirror?"

"Actually, I think you're quite unique..."

Su He said a couple sentences and the screen went crazy again: Not only good looking, but so funny too...

Brother Feng looked at the number of people in the live stream room about to break through two thousand, and the reward income had exceeded five hundred yuan. He grinned.

With this grin, the screen was instantly filled with wails, and various vomiting expressions.

Su He was also amused by this scene. This was his first time live streaming. Interacting with strangers online was quite interesting.

"Brother Feng...why don't you just turn on the beauty filter...Looking at you, then looking at the screen, it's double damage..."

Brother Feng didn't expect Su He to be quite good with words. With one sentence, he attracted the fans' attention again. Seeing the livestream room so active, how could he bear to turn off the beauty filter.

"Bro, the fans all want to hear you sing. Why don't you sing a few songs?" Brother Feng hurriedly changed the subject. Regardless of whether Su He could sing or not, whether he was bad or good, just with this face, the popularity had risen.

In just a moment, his account had gained over a thousand more fans. If he posted another video of Su He singing, it would definitely trend tomorrow.

If he sang well, people would just simply comment. If it was really bad, then that would be amazing. The comment section would definitely explode.

Since this was Su He's first time engaging with a livestream, seeing the fans enthusiastically calling out on the screen, he happily said, "Okay then, I'll sing one song!"

Su He had no musical talent since he was young. His singing voice sounded like a duck quacking. Over the years, he rarely opened his mouth to sing. After obtaining advanced singing skills from the system rewards, he had tried singing in private. His voice did become better sounding. Facing the screen, he also became confident.

"What song to sing?" Brother Feng asked.

Su He didn't sing nor listen to songs often, so he said, "Just the song you sang earlier."

Su He couldn't even remember the lyrics, so he searched for them on his phone.

Soon, the prelude rang out and Brother Feng handed the microphone to Su He.

"When I walk down every street here

My heart never seems to be at peace

Other than the roar of engines and the hum of electricity

I seem to hear his bone-eroding heartbeat

..."

With his eyes closed, Su He felt himself wandering aimlessly down the street, his heart empty, full of confusion about the future, Shen Yue's medical fees, whether she could wake up, in this prosperous and bustling city, he persevered alone, only because there was still a light burning in the distance...

On the overpass, all the pedestrians stopped their hurried steps. Every day they struggled in this prosperous and bustling city, yet had no time to appreciate the beauty around them. The helplessness of life, wanting to struggle but unable to make a sound, as if fate had grabbed them by the throat.

Su He's voice was ethereal, like a nightingale bursting out of its cage, flying freely towards the sky. One second it was lonely and wandering, the next second it was full of hope, with firm beliefs.

Life is bitter, but you must be sweet. Su He's voice cut deep into their hearts, using joy to cover up crying, keep moving forward.

Brother Feng silently watched Su He. Damn, so annoying!

Being handsome was already excessive enough, his singing voice was so nice too... Really, it was as if God had handed food right to Su He's mouth.

"Thank you!"

After finishing singing, Su He handed the microphone back to Brother Feng. This was his first time singing in public, and it was even livestreamed, but he felt very comfortable, an unprecedented feeling.

Originally, interpreting a song could also calm his heart down.

The audience on site came out of the trance from Su He's singing, and immediately erupted in warm applause.

Su He smiled and waved to them, and also prepared to leave to eat noodles. He was still hungry.

On Brother Feng's phone screen, the barrage was now indiscernible. The number of people in the livestream room had actually broken past ten thousand. Before Brother Feng could feel happy, he turned his head to see Su He walking towards the underpass of the overpass.

"What to do?" Brother Feng was about to cry. He had only wanted to chat with Su He for a bit, how did it become like this!

The barrage kept scrolling: Where did the handsome guy go?

Brother Feng picked up the livestreaming equipment and gritted his teeth as he chased after him.

"Bro, wait for me! I'm treating you to a meal!"
