Xu Ya, who is eager for quick success and unwilling to accept the status quo, does her best to go abroad. But the reality is not satisfactory. The United States did not give her the paradise life she expected. China's rise and prosperity made her even more disappointed. What also hit her was her husband's betrayal and terminal illness. She was unwilling to be tricked by fate and struggled hard. Wang Zhen, a kind-hearted, simple and willing to accept the status quo, was inexplicably brought to Canada by her gay husband who was tortured by his gender orientation, and then later moved to the United States. The geographical changes did not solve their problems, but instead contributed to the early death of his father-in-law. Dysfunctional families are even more precarious. Two women with completely different personalities became neighbors upstairs and downstairs by chance, and they had to start their strange relationship. Their respective trajectories go in separate directions but influence each other. Whether the dream falls, New York is still New York, they are no longer them...
