The Way Home Is Like a Rainbow

It took him twenty years to become a strong enough person, just to come back and tell her—not all the waiting was worth it, but you were. Story summary: Gu Shen, a top quantitative analyst and the youngest partner on Wall Street. When he was eleven years old, his father passed away. He was so hungry that he had stomach cramps in the corner of the alley. A little girl with a ponytail handed him a meat bun. That was the most delicious bun he had ever eaten in his life. The girl's name is Su Wanqing, and her father Su Mingyuan is his math teacher and has given him the most important help in his life. From that day on, Gu Shen planted an obsession in his heart - he wanted to become strong, strong enough to be worthy of those who were good to him. Twenty years later, he gave up everything on Wall Street and returned to China. But the Su Wanqing standing in front of him was no longer the little girl who followed him and called her "brother". She has her own life and career, and she doesn't need anyone's charity or "protection" from anyone. The male protagonist's strong pursuit vs. The female protagonist's insistence on equality and independence, coupled with workplace competition, third party intervention, and family pressure - Gu Shen must learn: love is not about proving that you are worthy, but learning to love with respect. Su Wanqing must also understand: being loved does not mean being looked down upon. She is already someone worthy of being loved. Finally, they discovered— Love is not about who saves the other, but two trees side by side, with roots entwined underground and branches and leaves facing the sun.
