Yan Ruitang resolved that this summer vacation, she would learn to swim if it killed her.
Instead, she slipped during her very first lesson and nearly drowned.
The moment the lifeguard pulled her from the water, she felt a warm sensation between her legs.
Her first-ever emergency treatment ended with her being rushed into an obstetrics and gynecology clinic.
She glanced at the blood gushing beneath her and nearly passed out.
"Doctor, um, my hymen wasn't damaged, was it?"
The county town was so small that by the next day, her coworkers and students all knew. Even the students' parents came to the maternity ward to offer their condolences.
She overheard someone whispering, "Why is the doctor a man?"

At an exclusive financial networking event, Wen Jiayin was stopped by the man behind her.
Leaning against a tall table, the man gave her a cuttingly mocking look with his long, charming eyes.
"Instead of wasting your breath on those old men, why not catch up with me?
Your mom was involved with my dad, after all. We know each other inside out, don't we?"
"Run into someone you know?" her arriving supervisor asked.
Wen Jiayin smiled sweetly and stepped back with graceful poise. "We just said hello. We're not close."
During the years she had to live under someone else's roof, she had seen more than enough of Pei Youlin's condescending attitude.
But back then, all she could do was pretend to be deadpan and unresponsive.
Now, she wore the most perfect professional smile.
Late at night in a hotel, Pei Youlin cornered Wen Jiayin by the bed, his gaze icy.
He asked tentatively, "I heard you're pretty close with the chairman here?"
Wen Jiayin didn't answer his question.
Instead, she met his lips and casually hooked a finger into his belt.
"Mr. Pei, did you come all the way here in the middle of the night just to ask me that?"
