Huang Wenjie had silently shouldered the family expenses throughout his eight-year marriage, while his parents-in-law moved in to enjoy the fruits of his labor without effort. Meanwhile, his wife Sun Jinyue secretly embezzled eight hundred thousand of their shared savings to support her gambling younger brother's business venture. Repeated compromises only led to the wife's family pushing their luck further, and the endless demands left Huang Wenjie breathless. Seeing through this constantly drained marriage, he resolved to cut his losses in time and decisively requested a divorce. Faced with his wife's pleas to stay and her family's entanglements, Huang Wenjie softened his heart no longer. Sun Jinyue finally came to her senses, but the damage had already been done. Walking out of the shattered past, Huang Wenjie headed overseas to start a brand-new life of his own.
