2001, early April.
It's cloudy in Beijing with continuous light rain.
Chi Wan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, quietly overlooking the blurred night view of the entire city.
Tonight she was going to do something very bold.
I was hugged by a man from behind, and a familiar smell hit me. I heard the man's vague tone, and I could tell he was drunk when I heard it: "Wanwan, let's be together..."
Although the man called Chi Wan's name, Chi Wan still knew in her heart that the Wan Wan he was talking about was not her.
But she still made the mistake, turned around, stood on tiptoes, and lightly covered his lips.
But in an instant, the man regained his sovereignty.
The rain outside the window was still pattering.
But Chi Wan felt real pain at this moment, but after the cocoon transformed into a butterfly queen, it felt different.
The night was long, and the hot atmosphere in the apartment was completely different from the cold and wet weather outside.
When Chiwan woke up the next day, she opened her eyes and saw a man sitting by the bed with a sullen face.
His exposed arms had clear muscle lines, and there were a few inconspicuous red marks on his back. You can imagine how intense last night was.
Chi Wan sat up, looked down at the red and purple marks on her body, and said slowly: "Mr. Ji.
Ji Yanli frowned and said in a cold tone: "What do you want?"
Chi Wan bit her lip and did not answer his question. She took a deep breath, met his gaze, and said slowly: "I don't want to lose Ji's job, and I also want the position of chief secretary."
The real daughter of the Chi family will be back in a few days, and she, the fake, will have no choice but to leave in despair.
She had no choice but to focus on the quarterly banquet ceremony.
She still needs money.
So she had to take a gamble.
"Chi Wan." Ji Yanli glanced at her sideways, but after a moment, he said expressionlessly: "You know what I hate most."
As he spoke, he stood up without any hesitation and left one sentence: "There are obviously many solutions, but you chose the stupidest one."
After saying this, the man stood up and left.
There was no hesitation.
Chi Wan lowered her eyelashes without much reaction on her face, more like she had anticipated the banquet.
She also knew that this method was stupid, but she had no other choice.
The rain last night didn't stop until this morning, and the road surface was still wet.
When she just came out of Ji Yanli's apartment, before the fatigue in her eyes had subsided, a rapid ringtone on her cell phone suddenly rang.
She looked at the contacts on the phone screen, her face turned pale, and she hesitated for a few seconds before slowly picking up the phone.
A woman's anxious voice came from over there: "Zhuyuan, your brother is going to the operating room again now, please give mom some money quickly."
Chi Wan suddenly felt powerless. She wanted to ask her biological mother if she never considered her feelings.
But now it was a waste of words. She closed her eyes and said feebly: "I know, I will transfer it to you now, please save it..."
Before she could finish her words, the call was hung up.
The cold wind blew her strands of hair hanging around her ears. Chi Wan laughed to herself. After transferring the money, she looked at the balance on the card with a hint of sadness in her eyes.
It was impossible for the Chi family to give her another penny.
Therefore, she can only seize the quarterly banquet for now.
But currently, according to Ji Banli's attitude towards her, whether she can achieve her so-called goal is still unknown.
Thinking of this, Chi Wan sighed.
