On a stormy night, the hematology ward at City No. 1 Hospital became a reflection of Su Wan’s desperate circumstances. She leaned over her younger brother Su Xiaoyu’s hospital bed, exhausted and anxious. He had acute leukemia, and the bill the nurse had brought showed that his continued treatment would cost another 300,000 yuan. For Su Wan, whose parents had died and who survived on part-time work, that was an astronomical sum.
Su Wan had already spent all her savings and gone into debt. Her relatives had turned her away when she asked for help, and the cafe where she worked part-time had suddenly fired her. These two blows plunged her into despair. Even worse, Su Xiaoyu, lying in his hospital bed, sensibly urged his sister to give up, leaving Su Wan heartbroken and helpless. Just as she was on the verge of breaking down, a news report on the nurses’ station TV lit a spark of hope: the Li Group was urgently hiring temporary translators, with no experience required and excellent pay.
Although she knew she had no translation experience and stood little chance of getting into the top-tier Li Group, Su Wan decided to grasp this “lifeline” for her brother’s medical bills and go to the interview the next day, rain or shine. She had no idea that this journey was about more than making a living. It would completely change the course of her life and bring her face-to-face with the person who would change it forever.
