Chen Mo was separated from her family at the age of three, and after twenty years, returned to China to find her family. Her father, Lin Yuan, wanted to give her mother, Zhao Huiru, a surprise, so she wanted to plan a reunion at Zhao Huiru's birthday banquet after twenty years of separation, but the photos and notes on her father's cell phone caused her mother to mistake her daughter for a mistress, and bullied Chen Mo in the preparations for her birthday banquet. Until she finally learned that the one she had harmed was her own daughter, Zhao Huiru regretted her actions.

Discussion and ratings
Character motives are simple, but the low-friction pacing helps. The 7.3 rating feels fair for what it offers.
Good for short breaks, not really something to treat like a long-form drama.
1d agoThe main conflict is clear within minutes. The cover gets attention, but the pacing is what keeps people watching.
I also use the free episodes first before deciding whether to continue.
2d agoThe twists are quick; I just hope it does not rely only on misunderstandings.
3d agoBetter for quick breaks than for viewers expecting long-form drama texture. With 59 episodes, the first few are enough to decide. Some cuts feel rushed, so emotional turns do not always breathe.
The twists are quick; I just hope it does not rely only on misunderstandings.
3d agoCharacter motives are simple, but the low-friction pacing helps. The English version is watchable, though localization can still improve.
