I spent 30,000 yuan on a custom suit, and my mom tells everyone that I bought it online during a clearance sale for 300 yuan. I've been running my startup for three years, and the company makes millions a year—just a drop in the bucket. My mom only says I’m just making a small living. At a classmates' gathering, I brought imported cherries, which my mom quietly took into the kitchen and served her homemade sour plums and frozen pears. The sweet and sour flavors were a hit, and everyone was grabbing them, but I felt uneasy the whole time. After the event, my mom held my hand and said: "Child, the higher you fly, the more thorns others see in you." Life is lived for yourself, not for others to see. It was a wake-up call: everyone hopes you fail, not succeed.
