Dai Li, the head of the Kuomintang secret service, was famous for his ruthless methods and lustful nature. However, among the many **, the most favored by him is Yu Shuheng, who was born in a middle-class family.
Yu Shuheng has been smart and talented since childhood. She began to study at the age of five, was already proficient in Tang poetry and Song poetry at the age of seven, was admitted to the girls' middle school with excellent grades at the age of ten, and skipped the entrance examination of ** University (later Nanjing University) at the age of sixteen, and was successfully admitted to the Department of Foreign Languages. At the age of 20, she graduated with the first overall score and was awarded the Medal for Academic Achievement, and the department leaders admired her and invited her to stay in school as a teaching assistant. However, Yu Shuheng is determined to study abroad and pursue a higher space for progress. However, her father's unemployed accident shattered her dream of studying abroad, and she could only work first to earn money and accumulate capital to go abroad.
In late 1937, when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, the Japanese invaded Shanghai and Nanjing, blocked the external passage, and Yu Shuheng's dream of studying abroad was shattered and he was forced to stay in Shanghai. A friend introduced her to work as a translator and be responsible for business negotiations with foreign-funded enterprises. Cheerful and talkative, she quickly became the leader at the negotiating table. However, fate brought her a twist at this time. At the beginning of 1938, a boss surnamed Dai came to the door and hired her as a secretary with a high salary. This "Boss Dai" is Dai Li, he took a fancy to Yu Shuheng's talent and beauty, and tried to draw her to his side.
From the first day Yu Shuheng came to work beside Dai Li, Dai Li had evil thoughts about her. He hinted to Yu Shuheng many times that if he wants to make progress in his career, he should find a "backer". Yu Shuheng knew it, but she didn't want to have anything to do with Dai Li, so she kept pretending to be deaf and dumb and didn't accept his teasing. However, Dai Li's patience with Yu Shuheng was limited, and he finally used drugs to stun her and forcibly possess her. Afterwards, Yu Shuheng cried aggrieved and threatened to denounce Dai Li. In order to calm the situation, Dai Li threatens her not to make a noise, otherwise he will kill her. In order to save her life, Yu Shuheng could only swallow her anger, and over time, she was forced to become Dai Li's lover.
However, Yu Shuheng did not succumb to Dai Li's obscenity. She always kept a clear head and knew that she couldn't rely on Dai Lia for the rest of her life. Therefore, she has been looking for a way out for herself. Every time she became intimate with Dai Li, she would take the opportunity to ask for benefits and accumulate them as expenses for going abroad in the future. In 1941, Yu Shuheng finally saved enough money and began to plan how to get rid of Dai Li and go to the United States to settle down.
Yu Shuheng is a person with extremely high emotional intelligence, she did not fall out with Dai Li directly, but forced him to marry her. Dai Li was naturally reluctant to marry Yu Shuheng, so in order to appease her, he had to send her to the United States. This was exactly what Yu Shuheng wanted, and she immediately went to Guangxi, took a cruise across the Pacific Ocean, and settled in New York. In the United States, she applied for a graduate degree at a public university to resume her studies and improve her abilities. While falling in love with a Chinese scientist. A year later, she and her boyfriend successfully entered the palace of marriage.
And after Dai Li lost Yu Shuheng, he soon became an underground lover with female star Hu Die. The two are very affectionate, and Hu Die is even called "Mrs. Dai" by people within the military command. Dai Li, who had a new love, quickly left Yu Shuheng behind and completely forgot about her. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Dai Li was killed in an accident while going out to work. Hu Die, on the other hand, moved after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, worked in the film industry for a while, and married an actor. In 1966, she said goodbye to the film industry, moved to Canada with her husband, and spent the rest of her life peacefully. In 1989, she died peacefully in a nursing home at the age of eighty-one.
Yu Shuheng lived a happy life in the United States. With her talent and hard work, she has achieved great results in the academic world. She spends a wonderful time with her husband and enjoys an ordinary and peaceful life. She has never forgotten her original intentions and dreams, and has always maintained her thirst for knowledge and love for life.
