Swim Against the Current

I knew I was an orphan, but I was adopted 16 years ago. That year, I was sitting on a tree, looking at the handsome man below. I accidentally fell down and fell into his arms. He touched my hair and told the administrator, "I will adopt her." Later, I lived in his house. There was no one else in the house, just me, him, and many servants. Looking at the luxurious decoration and spectacular gardens and lawns of his house, I knew that he was very status and rich. He gave me a nice name: Qi Miao. By the way, his surname is Qi. The servants here all call me miss, which is very unaccustomed. The huge building is like a palace, and the gorgeous decoration reflects the extraordinary taste of the owner. However, it is deserted here and he always comes back very late. After a while, I went to school, a girls' school, and learned to write, and then I found out that his name was Qi Hanchen. He didn't have a wife, but he always played with a photo of a pretty woman late at night. This was what I saw when I went downstairs to drink water at night. I never ask about his personal affairs. He never called me "Miao Miao". He always called me "Qi Miao" I met a lot of friends in the girls' school. Almost all of them came from very rich families. Some of them were very hypocritical and always spent a lot of money to buy some very flamboyant clothes and accessories to show off here. Here, I met the second most important person in my life, her name is Yan Yu. Yan Yu's facial features are not particularly good-looking, but the whole combination gives people a special kind of beauty, just like Karen Mok. I met her at first because of piano lessons. She is like a teacher's assistant. When the teacher is not around, she can tutor anyone. When she was tutoring me, she smiled softly and said: You are so talented. I also smiled at her: Although we are in the same class, we don't seem to know each other well. Later, the whole school saw that Yan Yu and I were inseparable. She was a girl who played the piano well and always had a gentle personality. She had no father, only a mother who ran a clothing company. I met her mother, a very beautiful and gentle woman. Like Yan Yu, she had a soft smile. After entering high school, Yan Yu and I left this girls' school together and entered another private school together, which was a closed one. In fact, private schools are very chaotic, and fighting and falling in love are normal. Yu and I were not used to it at first, but later we found that boys are not that scary, and we started to get to know some boys. I could only go home once a month. After I returned home, my adoptive father always declined many appointments to accompany me. I knew he loved me very much. He bought me many beautiful and expensive clothes and jewelry, but I always put them away. I never accompanied him on any dates. Several times, I saw a beautiful woman in Qi Hanchen's Mercedes-Benz, a very coquettish kind, and he seemed to be very close to her. I was very unhappy and couldn't believe that his vision was so vulgar. After many days, I ignored him and he always observed my reaction innocently. Finally, I packed my luggage and went to school. After I got off the car, the servant took my luggage to the dormitory. I came to the classroom alone and met a burning gaze. I looked towards that gaze and it was him. His name was Cheng Yi, and he was a very famous person. I had heard before about how great his social skills were and how many girls he had and was sought after by his juniors. I just didn't understand why his gaze was directed at me.
