[A Life Reversed + Clear-Eyed Strong Female Lead + Climbing by Leveraging Others]
An ambitious newcomer at the provincial department × a gentle, patient university professor
A favorable wind can carry me high into the clouds.
Ye Zhenzhen has neither power nor connections, but she’s determined to turn her life around. She’s long since etched hard work and “leveraging others” into her bones.
The first time, she relied on her roommate to set her up on a blind date with Zhong Xuqiao, the favored son of heaven.
With his family background and her academic credentials and abilities, she passed the provincial department’s hiring exams and established herself there.
She thought she and Zhong Xuqiao were made for each other. But on the eve of their engagement, his first love returned, and she realized she had never been his first choice.
She severed her attachment and walked away decisively, without the slightest hesitation.
The second time, she chose a safer path. Through an introduction arranged by a superior, she met and married Jiang Tingjun, a gentle and understanding university professor. At last, she had a warm harbor in the provincial capital.
Some people call her unscrupulous, but no one understands:
She never wanted a man. She wanted to ride the wind and carry herself all the way into the clouds.
