The morning sunshine is beautiful, but Tang Lihua suddenly feels the sky has darkened. Her neighbor, Xiaoxi, sees Tang Lihua's son-in-law walking affectionately with a girl on the street, and this girl is not Tang Lihua's daughter. This accidental discovery not only makes Tang Lihua heartbroken for her daughter but also rekindles her own pain as she remembers her husband's betrayal from years ago. After that hurt and humiliation, Tang Lihua raised her daughter alone, changing her name to "Tang Hong" in hopes of severing all ties with a person named Ai Mingyan. Tang Lihua's own experience is now being repeated in her daughter's life. She sadly wants to tell her daughter about this news, but she did not expect that Tang Hong already knew. The concealment by her daughter leads to an uncontrollable argument between the two. Xiaoxi is someone Tang Lihua has watched grow up. As Xiaoxi matures from a small, kitten-like girl into a charming woman, their bond becomes stronger. The beautiful and lively Xiaoxi falls in love with Huang Chao, a vibrant and passionate boy. He is dedicated to his craft and determined to become a playwright. Tang Lihua, Tang Hong, and Yang Er form a standoff, and Yang Er hardly enters Tang Lihua's home since then, having only an ordinary fondness for the girl Guo Weiwei. Tang Hong secretly looks for her father, whom she hasn't seen for many years. Her father is a professor of aesthetics at a university. However, when she sees him, she hesitates; saying "Dad" is not something that can be done easily. Huang Chao is a kind and ambitious artist, but he is also self-centered. He pursues the art in his heart at all costs, giving up much and choosing a lifestyle that most people cannot understand. This state inevitably affects his life with Xiaoxi, and despite Xiaoxi loving him very much, he unintentionally hurts her time and again. Yang Er buys a new house; due to his discord with Tang Lihua, he moves in without renovations, bringing Tang Hong along. Soon, Yang Er's parents come to visit from their rural home in the northwest. Tang Hong works hard every day, making Tang Lihua heartache for her daughter, so she calls her to rest under the pretense of being sick. When Yang Er's parents go to visit, they learn from Xiaoxi that Tang Lihua is not actually sick, making Yang Er even more displeased. Tang Hong feels very wronged, and the two grow increasingly distant. When Tang Lihua learns of her daughter's connection with her father, she becomes furious; to her, this is an absolute betrayal. Ai Mingyan suddenly calls Tang Lihua asking to meet regarding Tang Hong, catching her off guard. Under Xiaoxi's encouragement, she surprisingly agrees to meet her ex-husband. Tang Lihua cannot help but blame Xiaoxi; for her, confronting this scar is not an easy task. Tang Hong knows that her mother has begun to contact her father, generating a complex mix of feelings within her. Her mother once so fiercely opposed Yang Er, yet now she is interacting with the person who abandoned her. What surprises Tang Hong more is that, arranged by Xiaoxi, her mother has started dating men. Tang Hong feels ashamed and even considers not returning to her mother's house. She excitedly tells her father about her mother's changes, only to find that he understands her very well. Xiaoxi makes up her mind to break up with Huang Chao and dates Old Tan, hoping to forget Huang Chao. However, she discovers he is a shallow and hypocritical person, which contrasts sharply with Huang Chao's sincerity. Time quietly changes everything. One day, Tang Hong calls her mother to inform her that she and Yang Er are inviting him to dinner. Yang Er intends to start a business in the northwest, and Tang Hong decides to follow him. Tang Lihua can't help but worry about her daughter, but she reluctantly agrees. On a rainy night, Huang Chao comes to find Xiaoxi. Xiaoxi does not open the door, but when she sees Huang Chao stubbornly waiting for her in the pouring rain from the window, she finally rushes down regardless of everything. Meanwhile, Tang Lihua receives a call from her daughter, who excitedly reveals she is pregnant.
