I was down 386u, and I stared at that red envelope in the work chat for two minutes without tapping it.
There couldn’t have been more than twenty-some yuan in it, and if I opened it, I’d have to reply with a thanks. I couldn’t be bothered to play along.
The person across the desk was already calling out who’d grabbed how much. My phone was sitting on the keyboard, screen lit up, and the red envelope expired.
It wasn’t about being above it all. That little bit of money wouldn’t even count as loose change in my account. Tapping it would only remind me that I’d pulled four all-nighters for nothing.
I just watched it turn gray.
Do you ever have those moments when it’d be so easy to just tap, but your finger refuses to listen?
