On a stormy night in late autumn 1993, with his father seriously injured and his family struggling in poverty, Lei Li gives up his place at technical school and plans to work in a dangerous coal mine. Chen Xiulan rushes through the rain and gives him everything she owns: 55 yuan and two white-flour steamed buns. Thirty years pass in the blink of an eye. Lei Li becomes the chairman of the powerful Lei Group in Nan Province, only to discover that his benefactor has had billions in assets taken by her scumbag ex-husband and has been forced to sell eight-yuan fried noodles at a night market. He vows to get her all the justice she deserves.
