Qin Shi and Gu Cheng's real interaction began at the lowest point of Qin Shi's life.
Due to her long-term alcohol abuse and lack of sleep, she frequently made mistakes at work. As a finance-related worker, this was fatal, and after repeated tolerance, her company no longer recognized her as the talented graduate from the renowned finance university, and she was directly dismissed.
Moreover, she had to compensate for the losses she caused during her work, or else the company would sue her and send her to jail.
At that time, Qin Shi had just started working not long ago and didn't have much savings; she had completed her studies with the support of part-time work and the financial aid from Bai Zhan and Shen Xian over the years.
Those astronomical compensation figures weighed on her like a mountain.
