She went back to work at Gong's father's company.

There was a girl named Qian, whose father had already passed away before she was born. She lived with her mother, grandmother, and stepfather, but neither her grandmother nor her stepfather liked her. Therefore, when she started high school, her mother sent her to a private school. The private school was full of children from wealthy families, and among these aristocratic heirs, Qian stood out as an oddity. Her monthly allowance was only 123.5 yuan, which was just enough for her to eat every month. Thus, she would wait until her classmates had finished eating, then hide in a corner to eat steamed buns and pickled vegetables. But the girl's strong-willed nature made her excel academically; she always ranked first in the entire grade. Many parents of wealthy children hoped she could tutor their own children, but she disliked the attitudes of rich kids, so she refused them all.

Not long after, a boy named Gong in her class asked Qian, "Can you help me with my studies?" Qian gave a disdainful laugh and said, "Why should I tutor you?" Gong replied earnestly, "Because my grades are poor!" This statement made Qian look at him again, and this glance made her feel that Gong was different. Unlike other wealthy children, he always wore an old overcoat and lacked the arrogance of the nobility. Thus, she agreed to tutor him. Every day, Qian tutored Gong, which also increased her income. Gradually, they got to know each other better. They learned that Gong's birthday was on December 31st, the last day of the year, while Qian's birthday was on January 1st, the first day of the year. Gong joked, "I am exactly one year older than you!" Qian responded indifferently, "Only by one day!"

That day after school, a BMW was parked at the school gate, which many wealthy children had never seen before. It was Gong's family coming to pick him up. As Qian watched Gong walk towards the car, she thought, "Why can they be so rich? Why can they drive a BMW?" At that moment, Gong turned around and gave her a faint smile before getting into the car.

Qian shook off her thoughts, thinking, "Why should I envy him? He isn't better at studying than me!" Days went by like this. Despite Qian tutoring Gong every day, his grades did not improve significantly. The college entrance exam approached, and they were both focused on their final reviews, no longer having time for tutoring. Qian was determined to get into Tsinghua University because she didn't want to be looked down upon by others. When the exam results came out, Qian successfully enrolled in Tsinghua University with a score exceeding the second-highest student in the entire school by 50 points.

Since school hadn't started yet, Qian wanted to go home to see her mother, as they hadn't seen each other for years. However, as soon as she entered the house, her stepfather beat and scolded her. Her mother protected her from behind, but Qian left the house in frustration. When she reached the building's balcony, she wished to see her mother one last time before leaving, but instead, her grandmother threw all her luggage down. Heartbroken, Qian left home and returned to Beijing.

Back in Beijing, Qian prepared to find a place to live. Just then, she saw an old woman tidying up a warehouse. She walked over and asked, "Old lady, is this house for rent?" The old woman smiled and said, "Young miss, do you want to rent a room?" Qian nodded, "Then it will be 100 yuan!" The old woman replied. While Qian was tidying up the house, she met Gong, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. Not wanting others to see her in such a pitiful state, she angrily asked, "Why are you here?" Gong still dressed casually as usual and said with a peculiar expression, "I'm visiting my aunt!" Qian felt as if she had been exposed and remained silent. Gong asked, "I heard you got into Tsinghua, congratulations!" Qian wasn't ungrateful, so she said, "Thank you! What about you?" Gong unhappily replied, "My dad wants me to study abroad!"

Gong continued, "Would you help me with something?" Qian asked curiously, "What is it?" Gong said, "Would you work as a typist at my mom's company?" Qian immediately became angry and said, "Are you pitying me?" Gong hurriedly explained, "No, my mom's company has recently had poor performance, many employees have left, and there's currently a shortage of staff. You can consider it as helping me, alright?" Qian agreed and worked at Gong's mother's company every day, earning a monthly salary of 600 yuan, which satisfied her greatly.

As Gong was about to leave for abroad, Qian invited him for a meal before he departed.

After Gong left, Qian continued to work hard, balancing her studies and job. By now, her monthly salary had reached 2000 yuan, and Gong's mother, considering her convenience, provided her with a laptop. In others' eyes, she seemed quite wealthy, though Qian neither admitted nor denied it.

In Qian's dormitory, there was a Beijing girl who was rather spoiled but never bullied Qian. Qian remained as competitive as ever, unable to tolerate anyone surpassing her academically. However, this time, she encountered a rival. A boy named Lin consistently scored higher than her, making her very upset and determined to surpass him. During a review class, Qian thought, "Next exam, I must surpass him!" At that moment, the teacher asked a question and called on Qian to answer, but since she wasn't paying attention, she shook her head. The teacher then asked, "Does anyone know the answer?" ...Lin stood up and answered correctly, receiving praise. Qian thought resentfully, "You think I don't know? Let me tell you!" After class, Qian stopped Lin and said, "Next exam, I will definitely surpass you!" The classmates present were surprised.

When the exam results came out, Qian indeed achieved first place. She searched for Lin's name on the score sheet but found that all his scores were zero. She was very angry: "If you don't want to compete with me, just say so!" Her roommate informed Qian that Lin was waiting for her by the lake on campus. Furious, she ran over and said, "What do you mean? Is this some kind of joke?" Lin remained silent and handed her the test paper. Confused, Qian asked, "How did you get the test paper?" Lin replied, "My aunt works in the academic affairs office..." Before he could finish, Qian interrupted, "Rich people are all like this! No wonder your scores are always so high!" Calmly, Lin explained, "But I've never used such connections. I've already completed the test; you can check the score!" Qian calculated the total score and found it was still higher than hers. She was very puzzled... Suddenly, Lin hugged her and said, "I like you!" Holding a boy in her arms, all her pride disappeared, and thus they began dating. Soon, they became intimate. Every time they went out, Qian would give money to Lin because it was proper for the man to pay when going out. Over time, she would regularly give Lin pocket money, which became a normal occurrence between them.

Qian's birthday was approaching, and she imagined what gift Lin would give her, thinking, "The pocket money I've given him is enough to buy me a necklace or a diamond ring." She felt happy just imagining it!

On Qian's birthday, Lin didn't contact her all day, and she assumed he was doing it intentionally to surprise her. Then the phone rang, and Qian picked it up, saying, "Where have you been?" She heard the other side respond in surprise, "Ah?" She asked, "Who are you?" "I'm Gong!" She angrily said, "Why is it you?" Gong calmly replied, "Happy birthday!" "Thank you! If there's nothing else, I'll hang up!" Gong said, "Alright then! Goodbye!" Gong didn't wait for Qian's response, and the sound of "beep beep" came from the other end... The phone rang again; it was Lin calling. After answering, Qian rushed downstairs, but Lin looked very unhappy. Qian thought, "Maybe he wants to give me a surprise!" Lin asked Qian, "Can you not go home tonight? Spend some time with me!" Qian hesitated but agreed. Upon reaching the hotel, Qian realized that painful emotions cannot be faked. Lin told her a story she least wanted to hear: Lin originally had a girlfriend named Rui, who studied at a film academy. He hoped his girlfriend would be different from other girls and not be tainted by worldly influences. However, when he went to see Rui, he found her with a wealthy man speaking degrading words about him, but Lin wouldn't accept it. In the morning, Lin used his saved-up pocket money to buy Rui a diamond ring, which she threw back at him. Qian held the diamond ring in her hand, seeing the word "Rui" engraved on it. At that moment, Qian hated herself, hating why she had worked so hard in her studies? Why had she learned to read? If she couldn't read, she might have thought the word was her name, but Qian held back her tears and consoled Lin, saying, "It's okay, it's fine!" Soon, Qian no longer worked at Gong's mother's company because her major in marketing management was precisely what Gong's father's company needed, so she moved to work at Gong's father's company. Graduation was approaching, and everyone would go their separate ways, so Qian and Lin parted ways.

Following Gong's father, Qian developed in Shenzhen, achieving remarkable success over the years. Through various connections, Qian is now the manager of the British headquarters' branch in China. Qian bought herself a house and a car, just to prove that what others have, she can have too; it's just a matter of time.

Gong returned from abroad and invited his family, including Qian, for dinner. Qian noticed that Gong was still the same as before, still casual and seemingly without much ambition. After dinner, Qian asked, "Where are you going?" Gong replied, "Swan Lake!" Qian sarcastically remarked, "Rich people always stay in star-rated hotels." Gong didn't respond to Qian's comment but instead asked her, "Can you come with me?" "Why?" Gong pleaded, "Please, just come with me, alright?" Qian thought for a moment and agreed to accompany him upstairs. As soon as they entered the room, Gong said, "Close your eyes!" Count down from five! When Qian opened her eyes, many clowns jumped out from the corner of the room singing for her. Then, Gong pushed a five-layer cake in front of Qian, "Happy Birthday!" Qian was deeply moved because she hadn't celebrated her birthday for many years. Holding the diamond ring in his hand, Gong knelt down on one knee and seriously asked Qian, "Will you marry me?" Qian said, "Give me a reason!" "I love you!" Gong replied. Qian nodded in agreement, but deep down, she wasn't sure if it was right or wrong because she still couldn't forget Lin, but Gong's parents were also very nice to her. Soon, Gong and Qian got married.

After marriage, Qian was still busy with work as before, while Gong stayed at home raising fish, tending flowers, and surfing the internet, which Qian couldn't stand. Once, Qian complained, "Why am I running around all day while you just sit at home doing nothing?" Gong laughed heartily and said, "Why don't we both stay at home? Anyway, the money my parents earned is enough for us to spend our whole lives!" As soon as the words were spoken, Qian angrily shouted, "Why should we spend your parents' money? Don't we have the ability to earn it ourselves?" Seeing his wife angry, Gong quickly laughed and begged to pacify Qian. This happened repeatedly.

One day, a stranger added Qian on QQ, and she vaguely sensed that it was Lin, but she still accepted the friend request. Sure enough, it was Lin, and they chatted for a long time. Qian learned that Lin was the manager of a company in the northwest, and she felt that her husband had no future. Back at home, Qian saw a fish floating belly-up in the fish tank and scooped it out to throw it away. When Gong returned and noticed a fish was missing, he asked his wife, "Where's my 'Second Concubine'?" Qian indifferently replied, "I saw it floating belly-up and threw it away." "No, it rests like that every day!" Hearing this, Qian became furious, "You just stay at home all day, unlike others!" Gong listened silently and asked, "Is the 'other person' you're referring to him?" Enraged, Qian slapped Gong across the face. Gong didn't say a word, quietly closed the door, and left the house. Two days had passed, and Gong hadn't returned home. Qian knew she had gone too far but was too embarrassed to call him herself. She suddenly remembered Gong's diary, which he had never let her read. Now, she could take a look.

Opening the diary, the first page read: Year X Month X Day, there is a girl in our class who is different from others. After everyone finishes eating, she hides in a corner to eat steamed buns and pickled vegetables. I really want to help her, but she seems to dislike rich kids. I need to come up with a good plan!"

"Today, I asked my dad to get me an old overcoat. I think this way, I can easily approach her, and she won't dislike me. She has agreed to tutor me, and to spend more time with her, I intentionally perform poorly on exams. Even though she calls me stupid every time, I am still very happy. But it's hard to explain this to my parents."

"My birthday arrived, and my dad came to pick me up in the car. I was a bit sad because I feared she might distance herself from me because of it. Tomorrow is her birthday, and I wish I could invite her to get in the car with me, but I know she definitely wouldn't agree. So, I can only send her a helpless smile. After getting in the car, I took off the old overcoat and put on new clothes. My dad even asked if I had any issues, always wearing this old coat."

"I think I have fallen in love with her!"

...

"My parents know I like her, but my dad says if I get into Tsinghua, he will approve of us being together. So, I started studying hard, but she is so competitive that I cannot surpass her scores. Therefore, I intentionally left a few questions unanswered in each subject, and this way, I scored 50 points less than her, ranking second in the entire school. But my dad wants me to study abroad, and if I refuse, he will reveal everything I did to help her, so I agreed."

"Before leaving for abroad, I met her and invited her to work as a typist at my mom's company. I was afraid she would know I intentionally helped her, so I discussed with my mom and said the company was performing poorly. Before I left, she said she would treat me to a meal. I said I wanted beef noodles, but she disagreed, so I lied and said I loved eating beef noodles because I knew even if we both ate, it would only cost 3 yuan, leaving her with 597 yuan as pocket money for the month. After the meal, she returned to school, but not far from there, I threw up because I had never eaten such terrible food."

...

"What a coincidence! There is a girl in her dormitory who was my junior high classmate. I told my classmate not to bully her, otherwise, I wouldn't be polite!"

...

"From my classmate, I learned that she has a boyfriend now. I want to ask her how she's doing, but I can't find a reason to call her!"

...

"Today is her birthday, and I finally have a reason to call her, but hearing her voice, she sounded very urgent, as if she was waiting for someone, so I quickly hung up. My classmate told me she didn't return to the dormitory that night, and I was very worried. I can't imagine what might happen! My mind is in chaos!"

...

"In abroad, I strive hard, but I can't tell her about my achievements because I fear she might ignore me. After a lot of effort, I finally managed to establish a branch of my company in China, and the general manager is her, so I naturally feel reassured! I am about to return home, but I can't tell her about my efforts over the years. However, whether she has a boyfriend now or not, I will propose to her."

...

"I proposed to her, and she agreed!"

...

"On the wedding night, I deliberately cut my finger to stain the bedsheet red. Although both of us know she is not a virgin anymore, in my heart, she will always be the person I cherish."

...

"After marriage, she remains busy with work, and I can't go a day without seeing her, so I communicate with the deputy manager of the headquarters via computer every day. Although she thinks I have no future, as long as it doesn't harm her, anything is fine."

...

"I feel she is contacting him again, and I am afraid I will lose her because I really can't live without her now. I want to spend my whole life with her."

...

"Wife, I really don't want to lose you because I can't live without you!"

...

Tears streamed down Qian's face as she realized how much effort and care this man had put into helping her, despite everything! She no longer cared about saving face and called Gong, saying, "Husband, I know I was wrong. Come back!" "Give me a reason!" Gong asked. "I love you!"
