Chen Xiaomin died at forty-eight, full of regrets.
The constant compromises in her marriage, the old engineering project her father had been blamed for by rumors for thirteen years, and the truths she had never managed to uncover all weighed on her in her final moments.
When she opened her eyes again, she was back on the eve of her wedding to Li Jianjun.
Her mother-in-law, Shen Guilan, prized rules and appearances. Her husband, Li Jianjun, was not a bad man at heart, but always tried to smooth things over between his mother and his wife.
In her previous life, she had always thought that if she endured a little longer, life would get better. This time, she would no longer trade her own grievances for the family's peace. She would speak plainly about what needed to be said, and investigate the old accounts her father left behind from the beginning.
What truth lay hidden in the old engineering project's accounts from thirteen years ago? This time, could Chen Xiaomin uncover what really happened and build a different life for herself?
