Female-led story + regretful ex chasing his wife + doctor + relentless face-slapping satisfaction + marriage first, love later + second chance at love.
Shen Zhiwei, deputy head of cardiac surgery, has just finished a twelve-hour operation when she discovers her in-laws have turned her premarital apartment into a nursery.
Her brother-in-law slaps her six times in front of everyone, while her husband stands among the crowd without saying a word.
The next day, she sells the apartment with the property deed in hand. On the third day, the new owner arrives with the police to clear the place out.
“This place belongs to me now. Get out within the hour.”
Her in-laws throw a hysterical tantrum, and her ex-husband falls to his knees begging. She simply hands him the divorce papers:
“We're getting divorced. From now on, we're done for good.”
Later, she becomes the youngest head of cardiac surgery and reaches the peak of her career. Her ex-husband chases after her, eyes red as he begs her to come back:
“Zhiwei, I was wrong. Give me one more chance.”
She smiles faintly. “Too late. My life has never needed anyone to save it.”
