Su Zhiyuan is the Su family's real daughter, who had been lost for many years. After she is found, her family welcomes her with open arms, and her parents treat her with loving care. To avoid excessive attention from the wealthy elite, she gets her family's consent to use the overseas records of a distant elder as cover, posing as an ordinary student returning from abroad to enroll at Mingde International Academy. She wants to complete high school through her own efforts.
Her childhood friend and boyfriend, Shen Yubai, knows the whole truth. Respecting her wish to keep a low profile, he quietly clears obstacles for her and gives her his wholehearted affection and protection. Lu Yanci, heir to the academy's investors, knows everyone and everything in their social circle. With his popularity among women and his wide network of information, he becomes Su Zhiyuan's close friend and source of intelligence.
Lin Wanning, who was mistakenly brought into the Su family as a baby, is used to a life of privilege. Jealousy drives her to keep trying childish tricks to test and frame Su Zhiyuan. But her limited wits make every scheme backfire in a farcical mess.
At the academy's annual gala, Lin Wanning is egged on by others and publicly presents a collection of pieced-together "evidence," hoping to expose Su Zhiyuan and get her expelled.
The truth comes out in front of everyone. Su Zhiyuan drops her disguise, and her identity as the real heiress shocks the crowd. The truth about Lin Wanning having been switched at birth is revealed as well.
The Su family does not destroy Lin Wanning's life, and continues to provide for her. After a crushing blow, Lin Wanning comes to her senses, lets go of her vanity, and begins an ordinary life of her own.
No longer needing to hide behind a false identity, Su Zhiyuan shines in competitions, charity work, and her studies. With a loving family, her partner by her side, and close friends around her, she proves that a person's worth has never been defined by their background.
