CompletedPeople in the compound all said Wang Cuilan was lucky. Born in the countryside with only a middle school education, she was able to marry one of the most capable young men in their compound, thus achieving a class leap.
Everyone advised Wang Cuilan to cherish her blessings, be grateful, and value her good life, but no one noticed the fatigue hidden beneath her smiling face.
Wang Cuilan had been a scheming girl since childhood, knowing that if she wanted something, she had to strive for it herself.
So, when Xie Zheng came to her, asking if she was the one who saved him? With a quick turn of thought, Wang Cuilan nodded, and then she married Xie Zheng, climbing the social ladder.
