Synopsis[]
Three successful women – Wang Man Ni (Maggie Jiang), Gu Jia (Tong Yao), and Zhong Xiao Qin (Rachel Mao) – experience a turbulent start their thirties.
Wang Man Ni has always been ambitious, but after marrying a man she first believed to be her perfect match, she is now having second thoughts.
As the couple's relationship hits the rocks, she finds herself at a crossroad.
Meanwhile, Gu Jia was once happy to take a backseat role, playing the unseen hand and carefully guiding the career of her socially awkward and somewhat geeky husband. Her efforts paid dividends, with her spouse becoming his company's CEO.
However, in an unexpected turn, her husband suddenly becomes involved with another woman. Will her happy home be broken up? Or will she find a solution to this nasty conundrum?
Meanwhile, life is very different for the more carefree Zhong Xiao Qin. She is married to a faithful husband who works in an unremarkable job. She also has a middling career and spends her free time writing novels.
She expects that nothing will ever come of her writing, which is basically little more than a hobby for her. But one day, the unthinkable happens – a book company comes across her manuscripts and offers a huge sum for the right to publish her work.
All of a sudden, she finds her income dwarfing that of her husband, who feels intimidated and belittled by Zhong Xiao Qin's sudden wealth and fame.
Can the trio resolve their life and love dilemmas as the going gets tough?[2]
