After her divorce, Xu Shuang moves back to her parents' home with her daughter, Guoguo. For ten years, she works tirelessly to support the entire family and put her younger brother, Xu Yi, through college. Just as Xu Yi and Ren Qianqian are about to register their marriage, Ren lays down three conditions at the dinner table: Xu Shuang and her daughter must move out of the Xu family home, they must not attend the wedding, and the relocated home and compensation for the family's old house must belong entirely to Xu Yi. For the sake of Guoguo's household registration and school enrollment, Xu Shuang is willing to concede the first two demands, but she refuses to budge on the third. Their mother slaps Xu Yi on the spot, while their father urges his daughter to give in. Xu Shuang remains outwardly calm but secretly orders her assistant to investigate. Then an ultrasound report surfaces: Ren Qianqian is already nine weeks pregnant, contradicting her claim that she is only six weeks along.
