[Family Life + Career-Focused + Alternate Setting + Romance]
In her previous life, Gu Manxiang lived a proper, conventional life until she was seventy. Her husband took the savings she'd spent her whole life building, telling her he was sending their son abroad so he could support her in her old age.
She eagerly looked forward to reuniting with the son she hadn't seen in years, but no matter how long she waited, she heard nothing from either her husband or her son.
Gu Manxiang went to her eldest daughter to ask what was going on. Her daughter gave a scornful laugh. "You think he's your son?" She showed her a post on her phone: a family photo captioned, "At last, Dad and Mom are together. After all those hardships, we've finally made it!"
Gu Manxiang couldn't believe the son she'd raised for so many years was actually the child of her husband and her close friend. So where had her own child gone?
In the end, Gu Manxiang collapsed in the snow, regretting that she'd lived her whole life by the rules, without even knowing what the people closest to her were really like.
When she opened her eyes again, her first priority was to find her daughter. She'd kicked out her fake son and his family, so why was a fake daughter showing up at her door too?
So what? She recognized her real daughter at a glance.
In this life, she picked up her career again. As she built her business, all sorts of bizarre incidents came her way.
At her mentor's birthday banquet, the rival who'd competed with her for first place back in school showed up too.
But why was he looking at her so tenderly?
(I picked the wrong tags. I'll change them later. The male lead won't show up until later, and he doesn't have many scenes.)
