Forty Is Pretty Good

With her daughter away at school overseas, Qiao Sheng, who had been a housewife for more than a decade, suddenly felt that her life had lost its purpose. She decided to have a second child to fill the void, but never expected her whole family to oppose the idea.

Recently divorced Xing Yining had returned to Beijing from Guangzhou with her child. Her demanding job, young child, and mother's cold treatment of her after the divorce left her overwhelmed.

Wu Weiwei, an unmarried woman in her thirties who had drifted to Beijing and worked as a receptionist at the same company for ten years, was forced to become a livestream sales host when the company shifted to live commerce. Having never done the job before, she made mistake after mistake and was eventually fired.

The sudden loss of her job left Wu Weiwei, a young woman with no house, no car, and no partner, facing the difficult choice of going home or staying in Beijing.

An unexpected incident brought three women who had never known one another together, and they became close friends. They supported and helped one another succeed, and ultimately each found a happy life of her own.
