"The best objects are those that are stolen."
Wu Meilan firmly believes in this. When she learned that the city government had hired two graduates from Peking University, she immediately set a goal for her daughter Chen Xi—the best Dr. Zhou. To this end, she can mobilize all her connections and plan "perfect encounters" one after another, even risking her family's future.
"But what I want is not snatched away like this..."
Chen Xi, a "good girl" in the eyes of outsiders, is trapped in a walled city built by her mother with debt and expectations. She longs for marriage and escape, but even her heart beats with a sense of guilt. When she discovered that Dr. Zhou himself was so consistent with her spiritual world, she was overwhelmed with shame and fear - this good feeling started from a well-planned scam.
This is not just a family war.
· Su Qing, a returned executive, used "sobriety in the world" to fight against her mother's pressure: "It's not that I don't want to marry, I just don't want to marry with a 'condition'."
· Lin Wei, a rich girl, is kidnapped by her family's wealth and searches in the eyes of every man who approaches her: "Are you interested in me or my father's company?"
Three girls, three dilemmas, making the same cry. Behind them are three mothers with firm beliefs and different methods, strategizing and regarding their daughters' marriage as the most important battlefield and investment in life.
When "for your own good" becomes the heaviest shackles, when "love" becomes a commodity with a clear price tag, can they regain their sovereignty over life and build their own marriage on the ruins of emotions?
