A Contract Family

Zhang Yuan is struggling financially and has just lost her job. Then she meets Wei Sihan, a rich girl whose father is always busy and often hires people to pretend to be her relatives at parent-teacher meetings. The two hit it off and become a mother and daughter under contract. To keep her job, Zhang Yuan seizes every opportunity to learn how to be the mother of a twelve-year-old girl, working her way from a training class to becoming a key member of the parents' committee over the course of a semester. For the sake of her job, she also spends six months pretending to be a devoted wife and mother. But she plays the part of a good mother and wife so convincingly that, in the end, the pretense becomes reality.
