After transmigrating into the book "A Little Dilemma", Nan Yao becomes the late-born son of Nan Jianlong and Zhao Na, fifteen years younger than his older sister, Nan Li. He's the undisputed family favorite.
After his parents divorce, he chooses to stay with his mother, Zhao Na, and his sister, Nan Li. He feels nothing but cool distance toward his cheating father, Nan Jianlong. No matter how guilty Nan Jianlong feels or how hard he tries to make amends, he can't warm Nan Yao's heart. Outgoing, irreverent, sweet-tongued, smooth, and sociable, he's a successful publicly listed company chairman who seems to have the world at his feet to outsiders. But he'd do anything for his family, and his sharp tongue always comes to their defense. He's their most reliable support, and anyone who dares bully his mother or sister will get such a verbal dressing-down that they'll question their entire existence.
In late spring and early summer, Nan Li's daughter, Xia Huanhuan, wins the choir competition at Fengfan Primary School. It should be a time for the whole family to celebrate, but Nan Jianlong's dinner invitation arrives right on schedule. Cai Juying's fake sincerity, Tian Yulan's pride and bragging, Yan Peng's wisecracks, and Nan Jianlong's belated fatherly affection all unfold over the family dinner.
Caught up in the whirlpool of family squabbles and cutthroat competition over the kids, Nan Yao supports his sister, Nan Li, as she deals with one headache after another, maintains a good relationship with Yan Peng, mercilessly mocks Tian Yulan's bragging, and gradually falls for Zhang Xue'er.
Faithfully following the original story, watch Nan Yao protect his family, put the people he can't stand in their place, find a happy romance, and live the way he wants in a world full of conflict and regret.
It's well written, but a little too kind. It seems that Nan Li is the one who is wronged.
