Past
GRACE WAS BORN IN MAPLE CITY, WHICH IS A MUCH COLDER PLACE THAN YUKI CITY, HALF OF THE YEAR IS WINTER, AND THE REMAINING HALF OF THE YEAR IS SPRING, SUMMER AND AUTUMN, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A COLD CLIMATE, EXERCISING PEOPLE'S WILL, GRACE AND MOTHER, ARE VERY STRONG WOMEN.
WHEN GRACE WAS VERY YOUNG, HER FATHER RAN AWAY WITH ANOTHER WOMAN, AND SHE NEVER APPEARED AGAIN IN HER LIFE. MOTHER RAISED GRACE ALONE, STRONG MOTHER WHILE TAKING CARE OF GRACE, WHILE PARTNERING WITH FRIENDS TO RUN A SMALL FOREIGN TRADE COMPANY, ALTHOUGH THE BUSINESS IS DIFFICULT, BUT CAN ALSO ENSURE THAT THE MOTHER AND DAUGHTER LIVE A DECENT LIFE, THE MOTHER HAS HIGH REQUIREMENTS FOR GRACE, LET GRACE LEARN DANCE, VOCAL MUSIC, ENGLISH SINCE CHILDHOOD.
GRACE knows her mother's hard work, is more mature and sensible than children of the same age, studies hard, and has an IQ that is better than that of ordinary children, and skips grades during school, at the age of 20, she has graduated from Yan University, a first-class university in China, and was directly sent to Duke University by the school to continue her studies because of her excellent grades.
At this time, my mother pressed all the goods imported from abroad, because of the military coup in the country from which they came, they were all seized, and there was no hope of recovery, and my mother fell down because of the sudden blow, and the perennial overwork had made her physically sick, and the bankruptcy of the company became the last straw that overwhelmed her. GRACE GAVE UP THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO DUKE, FOUND A JOB IN THE CITY, HIRED A NURSE TO TAKE CARE OF HER MOTHER DURING WORKING HOURS, AND TOOK CARE OF HERSELF AFTER WORK, DOING HER BEST, DAY AND NIGHT. But a year later, her mother still left her.
GRACE HAS BEEN SAD FOR A LONG TIME BECAUSE OF HER MOTHER'S DEPARTURE, AND SHE HAS QUIT HER JOB IN THE CITY, GRACE KNOWS THAT SHE CAN'T LET HERSELF SINK FOREVER, AND SHE NEEDS A NEW LIFE TO GET RID OF THE MUD OF REALITY. After that, after half a year of hard work, I was admitted to the Virginia Business School MBA and won a full scholarship.
GRACE, WHO HAS NO WORRIES ABOUT HER COUNTRY, CAME TO THE UNITED STATES TO START A NEW LIFE OF HER OWN. During her time at Virginia Business School, in addition to the school's full scholarship, GRACE also worked several jobs part-time, and by the time she graduated, she already had a sum of savings, so she began to study the violin she had always dreamed of.
AT A FELLOW VILLAGER PARTY, I MET FRANK, FRANK IS A TALENTED STUDENT IN THE ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT, THERE IS ALWAYS A MELANCHOLY TEMPERAMENT, GRACE IS ATTRACTED BY THIS TEMPERAMENT, AND FRANK IS VERY CLOSE, BECAUSE OF THE LONELINESS OF A FOREIGN COUNTRY, THE TWO RELY ON EACH OTHER, AND SLOWLY DEVELOP FROM ORDINARY FRIENDS TO BOYFRIEND AND GIRLFRIEND, A RELATIONSHIP IS 5 YEARS.
5 years, from a lover to a relative, holding each other's hands is like holding their own hands, the original passion gradually faded, ready to enter the marriage, GRACE was transferred out of the United States because of work, returned to China, FRANK also continued to work in the United States Renault Bank, long-distance love is not so easy, plus both of them are very busy with work, the urge to get married has slowly receded, there is no reason, the two have gradually drifted apart. WHEN GRACE FELT THAT IT DIDN'T MATTER MUCH TO HER WITH OR WITHOUT THIS PERSON, SHE PROPOSED TO SEPARATE, AND FRANK ACCEPTED IT. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT SOON AFTER THE RENAULT BANK COLLAPSED DUE TO THE ECONOMIC CRISIS, FRANK RETURNED TO CHINA AND WORKED FOR JISHI BANK. BUT EVEN SO, FRANK IS THE CLOSEST PERSON TO GRACE BESIDES HER MOTHER.
After graduating from Virginia, GRACE received an offer from HAMILTON, a leading company in the field of biochemistry and a Fortune 500 company. WHEN GRACE FIRST CAME TO THE COMPANY, SHE WAS JUST DOING THE SIMPLEST WORK, WITH POSITIVE ENTHUSIASM, INTELLIGENT INTELLIGENCE, HER WORK ABILITY WAS QUICKLY IMPROVED, AND SHE WAS VERY GOOD AT HANDLING INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS, AND HER POSITION WAS ALSO PROMOTED STEP BY STEP, FROM MARKETING ASSISTANT TO DEPARTMENT MANAGER TO PROJECT MANAGER AND THEN TO MARKETING DIRECTOR, IN THE FIFTH YEAR OF COMING TO HAMILTON, GRACE WAS APPOINTED CEO OF ASIA PACIFIC, AND THE PLACE OF WORK RETURNED TO CHINA.
STEPPING ON HER HOMELAND AGAIN, GRACE DIDN'T HAVE MUCH EMOTION, THE FIRST THING SHE DID WAS TO FIND A LAWYER TO MAKE A WILL, THE REAL ESTATE INHERITED FROM HER MOTHER, PLUS HER HARD WORK OVER THE YEARS, THE ASSETS HAVE ALREADY EXCEEDED 8 FIGURES, SHE DOESN'T WANT HER RELATIVES WHO CAN'T BE BEATEN BY THE EIGHT POLES AFTER HER DEATH, AND SHE AND HER MOTHER WHO ARE IN DEEP DISTRESS TO INHERIT THEIR OWN PROPERTY, AND THEY DON'T WANT THEIR FATHER WHO ABANDONED HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN TO SUDDENLY COME OUT.
GRACE'S WILL WAS SIMPLE, AND WHEN SHE DIED, HER ENTIRE ESTATE WAS DONATED TO CHARITY. If there is anything left on her life, GRACE hopes to be a mark of her contribution to society.
THREE YEARS AFTER MAKING HER WILL, GRACE CRASHED ON A PLANE.
Although this life is short, it is not a regret, Lin Yi thought to herself, she worked hard, loved, and finally gave back to the society with everything she had, she was not sorry for anyone, and she fulfilled her responsibilities for everything.
IF ANYONE WOULD BE SAD ABOUT GRACE'S DEATH, IT MUST BE THE PERSON NEXT TO HIM, LIN YI TURNED HIS HEAD TO LOOK AT THE EMACIATED FRANK, AND A SOUR FEELING SURGED IN HIS HEART.
