Zhao Shuzhen and her husband Li Zhiqiang toiled to raise their adopted son, Li Wei, funding his studies abroad. For 11 years abroad, Li Wei neglected his parents completely, failing to return even when his father passed away. Living a lonely and bitter life, Zhao Shuzhen eventually received millions in compensation from the demolition of their old house. Li Wei returned with his wife Wang Xuan; unaware of the huge sum, they only pressured her to hand over her "casket money." Refused, they flipped out and severed ties. Zhao Shuzhen invested in a charity gala, where Li Wei and his wife discovered the truth and brought a lawyer to demand all the funds in the name of parent-child relations. Zhao Shuzhen presented the adoption papers and evidence of Li Wei's abandonment, leaving him facing public revulsion. Zhao Shuzhen took him to court and declared they would have nothing to do with each other until death. After suffering a major downfall, Li Wei awakened and knelt to beg his mother for forgiveness.
