On the night Yuan Mengjie and her fiancé were supposed to register their marriage, her future father-in-law suddenly cut the 280,000 yuan bride price to just 8,888 yuan and demanded that she provide a luxury car as dowry for her future brother-in-law to use at his wedding. Her fiancé, Gao Fan, sided with his family throughout and expected her to give in. After seeing through his family's schemes and his blind filial obedience, Mengjie decisively called off the engagement. She then impulsively married Zhang Mian, her high school deskmate who had secretly loved her for more than ten years. At the family reunion banquet, she produced her marriage certificate and publicly humiliated her ex-fiancé's family when they showed up to cause a scene. Only then did Gao Fan finally realize his mistake and lower himself to win her back, but he could only watch as the Zhang family cherished and protected her, while she no longer spared him even a glance.
