IT Director Li Yang discovers that his two million savings have been entirely transferred by his wife to her mother Zhao Xiulan to "support her younger brother." At the same time, he is framed by high-level company executives and burdened with heavy debts, being forced to borrow from loan sharks. His mother-in-law coldly refuses to rescue him and applies to freeze Li Yang's real estate. Until Li Yang chooses to protect his wife with his life in desperation even if it means going to prison, Zhao Xiulan reveals her trump card. It turns out the mother-in-law is a top risk control mogul, freezing the property to isolate assets and protect her daughter and son-in-law, while the two million was a harsh test to force her younger brother to start a business and succeed. In the end, the family teams up to counter-kill the black-hearted executives and the scam syndicate, and Li Yang passes the character test, regains his wealth, and welcomes a happy ending.
