School:
Everyone at No. 1 High knew that Cheng Qi was always first in his grade. Everyone also knew that his grandfather paid for his education by collecting garbage.
All the teachers at No. 1 High knew that Wen Xu, who had advanced directly from the junior high division, was a little menace. She was not only good at studying, but also a master troublemaker.
What could they do? Spoil her, of course. Her father had donated a whole building to the school, after all.
Before meeting Wen Xu, Cheng Qi had thought his life would simply go on like that: no friends, no fun, just studying. Even though scholarships could give him and his grandfather a normal life, he could still hear other people whispering, “So what if he’s good at studying? He still has to live among garbage.”
After meeting Wen Xu, he became especially self-conscious about whether he smelled bad when he was around her. He knew his clothes were washed regularly and only carried a faint scent of soap, but he still couldn’t help worrying.
Cheng Qi: I thought my long life would come to a quiet, uneventful end, until your unexpected arrival showed me that I, too, was loved.
City:
When they meet again, Cheng Qi, the new financial magnate, is no longer the penniless poor boy who used to collect garbage.
In his assistant’s eyes, he is always so composed, almost like a robot without emotions.
Until one day, they see him.
The usually emotionless Cheng Qi has bloodshot eyes as he grips a woman’s chin and says hoarsely, “Wen Xu, do you hate me that much? You won’t even say a single word to me?”
Only Cheng Qi knows that the hand gripping her chin doesn’t dare use any force. He knows she’s afraid of pain.
