My boyfriend is a medical genius. I barely scraped through a Community College. Friends said I wasn't good enough for him, he cut them off directly: "Harper is my salvation, it's not your place to gossip." But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't see the hope of graduating. Had to beg Julian Vance to include me in his paper. He put my name before his without a word. But when I excitedly hugged him, I heard him chuckle in my ear: "Academic Leach." Since then, he saw me less and less. Went out more and more with that genius Campus Queen who is smarter and prettier than me. Even if I wanted to celebrate his birthday, only got a tease in return: "No paper to carry you recently, I dare not let you celebrate for me." I didn't cry or make a scene. Cancelled the internship at Mass General he arranged for me. Changed work location to Miami, thousands of miles away from him. ... Chapter 1 Julian's roommate told me he didn't return to the dorm at midnight, I found him in a Karaoke Bar private lounge. The moment the door opened, music stopped abruptly. Room full of people from Julian and Serena Sterling's circle. I hardly knew anyone. But they all seemed to know me. Someone raised an eyebrow and whistled: "Yo, Julian, your wifey came to pick you up." "Tsk! Braving the snow in the middle of the night, even brought Hangover Soup, so thoughtful, planning to ask Julian for a few more papers?" "Want me to say, getting married should still match door and household (social status). Our Serena is prettier than her and brain is top-notch smart, isn't she a better match?" Serena smilingly hit that person's shoulder: "Just sharp tongue!" Julian's eye tails slightly red from alcohol. Hearing this smiled, didn't refute. I gripped the hangover soup tightly: "Julian Vance, are you leaving or not?" He smilingly looked at Serena: "Do I want to leave?" Serena smilingly pushed him: "Annoying! Why ask me! That's your wifey, listen to her!" "Okay." He got up: "Listen to you." Serena's face blushed. I bit my teeth tight. I drove Julian's car here. Julian's medical talent is strangely high. Was scouted by Harvard Medical School without even taking SATs. Before graduation received invitations from many institutions, asking him to be a mentor after graduation. These years partners sent him resources and wealth. The little boy who once shared a schoolbag with me long lacked nothing. This Audi A6 in front, is his most insignificant asset. I was about to get into the driver's seat, he grabbed me: "Call a Designated Driver." "Why?" "You are so stupid, can you drive clearly?" He ordered a driver with tipsy eyes, smiled at me: "I still want to live a bit longer." I was exasperated: "I drove here myself!" "Really? So smart but need boyfriend to carry for a paper?" I bit my teeth tight: "You not willing, I return to you is fine!" "How to return?" He leaned over, familiar eyebrows and eyes gentle but carried some strange contempt: "You are not Serena, what, you can also write for top journals?" I was choked. Me and Serena, difference is more than just academic level. Serena's dad is the Director at a big hospital. My parents work early and late at the Fish Market. Although Julian's first tuition fee was earned by them selling fish. But times have changed. After the driver sent me and Julian back, I called my parents full of grievance. Told everything once. Phone side fell into silence. I thought signal bad, "Hello?" twice, opposite came parents' voice: "Julian said no wrong, you are indeed stupid ah, we are your parents, we know best." "Besides, Julian is a prodigy who could do college questions at eight, it's normal for people like them to think you are stupid!" "As for matter with Serena, they are both Ivy League, can you stop them socializing? Okay, late now, sleep quick." I unconvinced: "But..." "Enough!" Dad became impatient: "Your internship opportunity at big hospital was connected by Julian! Julian treats you well enough, don't make trouble!" Hung up phone, I couldn't help shedding tears. But, Mom Dad, I simply didn't want to choose medical major... Julian is a medical genius. I am not. Not only not. Grades also always at bottom. Sophomore year of high school, Julian took Harvard early admission and suspended school. Forced me everyday do those question types he can answer at a glance. Parents persuaded him: "Harper is not as smart as you, you go to Boston yourself, big deal let Harper sell fish with us later." He was decisive: "Harper not go, I also not go. "She sells fish, I kill fish, we husband sing wife follow. "Anyway, where Harper goes, I go." I know Julian's character. If I couldn't pass, he might really go sell fish with me. Days studied crazy, I also advised him care for himself. But he red eyes gripped my hand tight: "My parents died when I was five, family property swept away by uncles, was you took me home. "You drew bath water for me, you sewed clothes for me. "Your parents gave me a bite to eat, knew I study good, even used their fish selling money send me out state for advanced study. "If I forget who pulled me up back then, left alone, then I lived this life in vain. "Ungrateful things, I can't do." To not let him really kill fish with me, I fought life to learn. Finally scraped into a second-tier college in Boston. But now, Julian starts to dislike me. What makes me more cold-hearted is—— My parents also start to favor him. Chapter 2 I didn't return to dorm, afraid crying sound alarm roommates. But best friend Zoe still came downstairs found me. Heard me finish everything, she angry want go find Julian settle account. I grabbed her: "It's okay, I already thought well, I won't walk medical road!" Zoe widened eyes looking at me: "What you want do?" "Sell medicine!" Zoe dumbfounded. Me this person study grades not very good. But sales ability very strong. As long as days I follow stall, parents always can close stall home early. These years internship in hospital, skills didn't learn much, Pharmaceutical Supply Chain touched clear. "I thought long tonight, with my three-legged cat skills, later really let me on operating table, I also dare not. "That is risking human life. "Just now crying time, I inquired a warehouse in north city pressed a pile of goods, tomorrow I go look." Zoe looked at me: "But, you also studied full five years... give up like this, too pity." I shook head. Watching sky turn fish belly white: "Not pity, not pity at all." That batch goods in north city originally supply to Huaying Hospital. Is hospital Serena's father works at. But halfway came a competitor, boss goods all smashed in hand. Finally, I negotiated price. $20,000, I take all his goods. I have confidence, persuade Huaying Hospital reuse my batch goods. Just... $20,000 to me, really is big money. Go out have trouble finally still rely parents. I called Mom Dad. Mom Dad at first felt unreliable, but after I wore out lips, still decided let me try. I happily waited transfer. But waited a day no result. Called back, then knew, they transferred money to Julian. "You clumsy, medical related things, Julian definitely understand better than you. "Money to him, at least know how to spend, you want use money go find him, let him give you suggestions." I exasperated. But no time anger. Quickly inquired Julian location, took taxi went to that previous Karaoke Bar. This time, is Serena's birthday. I breathless appeared at private room door. Familiar scrutiny as always hit on me. I straight stared at Julian: "Julian Vance, give me $20,000." Someone spit out a mouthful wine. "Holy sh*t! This haven't married start ask for Dowry ah!" "This if really marry, she must open mouth close mouth millions tens of millions ah." "Although our Brother Julian afford these money, but she has to be worthy ah!" Julian turned off music, sat on sofa look me: "What you want do?" "You don't care, my parents transferred you a sum right? Give me." "Aiyo laugh die me, Brother Julian need Uncle Auntie help? You lie who ne!" "For own face this kind words also say." I came to Julian front: "Give me." "Uncle Auntie indeed transferred me a sum money, but not $20,000." I stunned. Transfer record shown to me, I surprised look at transfer less than $10,000. Also parents note: [Little Harper want money don't know do what, this money you hold, she if go out spend money like water, you million don't give her] Turns out parents think me like this... My eye rims red. "But, $20,000, I can give." Julian index middle finger clip bank card hand to me. I reach hand. He shrink back, mouth corner hook teasing smile: "What, not only want be Academic Leach, also want be Dowry Leach ah?" Room full laughter piercing ear. My hand hanging in mid-air became a joke. "Don't mind, I just joking." Bank card again hand to me. Everyone with playful look at me. Someone whistle to me: "Hey! Still have face take ma!" Serena also mood very good look me. I "Snap!" a sound snatched bank card. Dead stare Julian eyes: "Then thank you Mr. Vance!" In his slightly astonished gaze, I head not back left private room. Chapter 3 Zoe heard this news almost angry half dead. "You wait, I this go his school find him settle account!" I dead hug her, force press on chair. She red eyes: "You not angry ma!" Bank card flip in my hand a circle, I hook lip: "Angry or not, again can how? "I rather kneel on ground crawl forward, also won't stand in place anger and question." She stunned. "Moreover, I want anger and question show who see? "Him? "If these can let him regret or guilt, then he originally wouldn't do things hurt me." I lean over, show bank card in front her eyes: "Point is, money, we got." Ground promotion first day, I special put on beautiful makeup, want give responsible person leave good impression. But just push open her office door, mug fierce smashed on my forehead. "Roll! You these bitches! Vixens! Dress so beautiful show who see! "I this life won't use drugs sold by you these sluts! Roll out!" A nurse hurry bring gauze help me handle forehead blood: "You came not coincidental, Dr. Cheng this morning found husband cheated, mistress is a heavy makeup girl." My eyes black. Start unlucky... This matter noise compare big. When I cover forehead turn out corridor, just coincidental bumped into Julian come sit shift. Although he haven't graduated, but two years ago he lead a technology breakthrough, already let him become invited doctor. His side, is same white coat, figure curve distinct Serena. "Heard you and Dr. Cheng make noise." I don't want say much with him, bypass him want go. He a grab me: "Money I gave you not enough? So like give people be mistress?" "Slap!" A slap fierce hit on his face. Serena first reaction go cover his face. Then不满 (dissatisfied) look me: "Harper Xu!" I dead stare Julian: "Mouth put clean point!" "Harper Xu." Serena face disapprove look me: "You remember you are in whose territory." I didn't answer, turn head just go. But haven't out hospital, I knew Serena meaning. Few people blocked me into utility room. "Miss Serena spoke, let us give you some color see see." "She and Dr. Vance what relationship you don't know? Treat hospital is your family open?" "Small face quite good looking, no wonder Miss Serena say you rob Dr. Cheng husband." "Ah!!" I was forced press on ground. Phone thrown out. Julian call just happen come. I heard him "Hello?" two times. I a bite on man want cover my mouth hand: "Julian Vance! I in utility room! Someone want beat me!" Julian first stunned. Then sneer: "You just say you want how much money." "I don't want! You quick save... Mmph mmph!" "Harper Xu, stop pretending okay? Want just say you want, you really think I can't see out how you think." Julian sighed: "Call is to tell you. "Uncle Auntie money I transferred back, you later want money find me just fine, they earn money not easy, don't suck anyone blood." My mouth covered dead dead. Can speak time, he already hung up phone. Chapter 4 That day I went back face swollen half side. Zoe guard my sickbed keep crying: "Too excessive! Beat people in hospital, rely self is Big Miss just do whatever want! "Julian Vance also a scumbag! Anger die me!" I difficult raise my new signed contract: "It's okay, you look, have other hospital buy my goods le. "Not only so, I also introduced boss go that hospital do supplier. "Later this boss profit, I want 20%~" Zoe pout mouth: "Don't nonsense! You all like this, how talk cooperation!" I point self gauze wrapped head: "Just because like this, that hospital responsible person then pity me, gave me a chance ah." "You..." Zoe crying crying just laughed. Graduation ceremony day, Julian didn't get through my phone. He invited me go Harvard attend his graduation ceremony. Helpless under, he came my school. But learned I already early graduate left. "Harper seem injured, quite serious, lay in hospital half month. "Healed after then early took diploma left, only left this." Roommate gave box I left to him. Julian open. Dense red bills let him breath stagnate. Full $40,000. Beside note on, elegant handwriting wrote: [Harper Xu borrow Julian Vance $20,000, plus academic paper name fee $20,000, total $40,000] "Pata!" Box fell on ground. Those money, Julian a cent didn't take. He drove car, with fastest speed rush towards River West Hospital. Harper's roommate said, that is place Harper hospitalized before. Mind constant recall previous while Harper help call in phone. He that time determined that is Harper new lie trick. Now, he couldn't help connect Harper hospitalization and that call. He start again and again call Harper. No one answer. "Don't... beg you, tell me is fake!" Car stop at hospital gate. He stumble come lobby. But saw Zoe come take medicine. "Where is Harper!" He can't wait grab Zoe arm: "Harper still here right? Did she encounter what matter, always not answer phone!"

A sentence, Julian shoulder just collapse down. So say... that day Harper said someone want beat her, not lying... He red eyes: "Where is she?" "Working." "Impossible!" Julian disbelief: "I arranged work for her in Huaying Hospital! I this month simply didn't see her!" Zoe look him, like looking a joke: "She not do doctor, she now, is a Pharma Rep."
