Wang Jiayi never thought that she would see Lu Zhiheng again at a road show when the company was on the verge of bankruptcy.
The man she thought she would spend the rest of her life with was now sitting in a suit as an investor, pointing out every flaw in her business plan in the coldest tone. During the graduation season four years ago, he said, "Come abroad with me," and she said, "I want to start a business." So the two proud people walked back to back in a sea of people.
Four years later, she was a startup dog with three months' salary arrears, and he was the youngest investment partner in the industry.
In order to keep the smiling faces of the children in the mountainous area, Wang Jiayi gritted her teeth and knocked on his door. But what Lu Zhiheng handed over was not a script about rekindling an old relationship, but a cold gambling agreement - if the performance did not meet the standards, she would have to get out of the company she founded.
From lovers to party A, from side by side to game. They slapped the table in the conference room and quarreled, ate cold takeaways together in the office late at night, watched the stars in a remote mountain village primary school, and held each other's hands tightly amidst the bloody storm of capital.
Later someone asked Lu Zhiheng what was the most successful project he had invested in.
He looked at her who was rubbing her eyes beside him and replied with a smile: "A tough-talking woman and her ideals."
