On the day she turned thirty-five, Lin Jingshu's world collapsed. At the birthday party, the explicit chat records between her husband and his mistress were projected on the spot, and a collection call from her mother who was critically ill followed. After ten years of marriage, what she got in exchange was the threat of leaving the house, a rebellious daughter and sky-high surgery fees.
When she was desperate to deliver food, she broke her knees and shattered her dreams. In the old magazine on the table leg, she saw an interview with her former senior and business tycoon Gu Chen: "Architecture is solidified dignity." These words ignited the remaining fire in her bones.
She tore up the check donated by her ex-husband and dragged her tired body into his company: "Mr. Gu, I need a job." From being ridiculed as an "aunt" by her colleagues, to pointing out her fatal flaws to stunning everyone; from being framed and suspended by an anonymous letter, to fighting back in court; from establishing a personal studio, to using her daughter's paintings to defeat American giants in international bidding... She fought back all the way, slapping everyone who looked down upon her in the face.
Her ex-husband begged to get back together. When she stood on top of the city she designed, Gu Chen hugged her from behind: "Jingshu, look, all the lights in these houses are your stars."
This is the legend of a woman who rose from the abyss, not only regained her life, but also became a beacon of light for others.
