She was born into a poor family and grew up in a rural family where patriarchy was supreme. Her father was violent and lazy, and her mother was a tolerant and humble mother. The repeated quarrels and insults left cracks in her ears during her childhood. Yan Yiyi has told himself since he was a child: When he grows up, he will never repeat his mother's life.
She tried her best to get into college and married the pilot who "returned from studying abroad." She thought it was a decent escape, but she didn't expect that it was the beginning of another abyss.
After marriage, her husband cheated on her for a long time, and her husband's family was cold and unkind. She raised her children and took care of the housework alone, but she was always treated as a transparent person. Until she took her baby to travel to the United States alone and met the gentle and meticulous single father Mike. For the first time in her life, she was treated with tenderness, and for the first time she ignited the courage to change her destiny.
She is determined to divorce, immigrate with her children, and regain control of her life.
But love is not a perfect salvation. Mike also has a secret, and the actual cultural differences and distance are also pulling them apart step by step. While she was soberly cutting her losses, she was gaining a firm foothold step by step. She regained everything she had been deprived of, including career, identity, freedom, and love.
She no longer waits, no longer pleases, no longer puts the key to life in anyone's hands.
She wants to become that woman who can live a beautiful life without relying on men.
