Lin Wan was a medical student, beautiful but from a poor family. Back in college, she had a momentary lapse in judgment and slept with an eighteen-year-old high school boy. He was an athlete, full of energy and incredibly strong. He could lift Lin Wan with one hand. Most importantly, he was clingy, always following her around and calling her "bro" this and "bro" that, making her feel cherished.
Lin Wan was very satisfied and had planned to keep seeing him. But just before his college entrance exams, a middle-aged woman dressed in expensive clothes showed up and said the boy was her son. They were too far apart in status, she said, and couldn’t be together. Then she gave Lin Wan two million yuan to leave her son.
Lin Wan wasn’t stupid. She glanced at the glittering check, promptly broke up with him, made up some excuse, and went abroad to study.

Years later, Lin Wan returned to China and became a doctor. She was so busy with work that she had the air of a burned-out office worker. She was also so picky that nobody measured up. After several failed blind dates, she became a single man well past his prime.
One day, her cousin had an emergency and asked Lin Wan to take her child to kindergarten. Lin Wan rode her little electric scooter with her nephew to the kindergarten gate and saw a spotless, gleaming Maybach parked outside. Standing beside it was a mature, handsome man with a perfect figure and a very familiar face.
The man was exactly Lin Wan’s type, and he immediately caught her eye. She couldn’t help taking a few extra looks, thinking, Are parents this good-looking at my nephew’s kindergarten?
Then he turned around, and Lin Wan remembered who he was!
The high school boy she had abandoned for money years ago!
Lin Wan was mortified and was about to sneak away when the man called her by name.
Cheng Hemian walked over, holding a child’s hand. He glanced at the little nephew beside Lin Wan, who was staring up at him with eyes just as wide as hers, and sneered. "Is this your kid?"
Lin Wan didn’t want to make trouble, so she forced herself to say, "Yeah."
He fell silent.

The two of them eventually added each other as friends.
Lin Wan felt guilty and didn’t dare get too close to him or contact him first. But Cheng Hemian asked her out again and again. Unsure what he was after and afraid he wanted revenge, Lin Wan brought the child along several times.
Yet whenever he saw Lin Wan, Cheng Hemian was neither warm nor cold toward her, nothing like the gentle, passionate boy he used to be. Lin Wan began to relax a little.
But she hadn’t been relaxed for long before her nerves were on edge again.
Late one night, Cheng Hemian called. He was drunk, calling Lin Wan "bro" over and over, while asking, "I’ve been watching you for a long time. Your husband doesn’t seem to like you that much. Do I have a chance to be your mistress?"
Lin Wan nearly fell off her chair.
