He handled the purchasing and heavy work, while she ran the shop and took care of all the housework. Before long, the daily grind of pregnancy and raising a child wore away the warmth between them. Unable to understand each other's hardships, they argued and gave each other the silent treatment again and again. On Labor Day in 2008, they had a bitter fight and decided to divorce. The Civil Affairs Bureau was closed for the holiday, so they agreed to take a trip to Dujiangyan to ease the tension. But then an earthquake struck. He instinctively shielded his wife, and in the middle of the disaster, their souls unexpectedly switched bodies. Forced to live as each other, they experienced firsthand the entire process of carrying and giving birth to a second child, and finally came to understand each other's struggles. Their resentment gradually faded, and understanding quietly took its place. Their lives improved amid the role reversal, the supermarket business flourished, and their son and daughter grew up healthy. In 2013, hoping to ease the discomfort of their switched identities and fully accept their current genders, the two set off for Ya'an once again. An unforeseen change was quietly drawing near...
