After dropping out of middle school, Xu Jiameng worked tirelessly to put her younger brother, Jiahao, and younger sister, Jiayan, through school. Through her clothing business, she painstakingly scraped together a fortune of eight million yuan, only for her parents to sell her boutique behind her back. Every cent went toward buying a house for her brother and funding her sister's doctoral studies abroad—while her boyfriend, Zhou Haoran, was looked down upon and driven away.
Severing ties with her family, she ventured to Jiangzhou all alone. A winning lottery ticket gave her the capital to start over, and after earning the respect and trust of Qin Hanwen, she took the helm of Xinrong Garment Factory. Five years later, she had risen to become the chairwoman of Lingfeng Group.
When fate brought them together again, her brother was bankrupt and begging for a partnership, and her father was critically ill with no way to pay for treatment. Only then did the family finally remember the eldest daughter they had once written off as a failure. She paid for the life-saving surgery and bought back the old family home, yet when faced with her parents' belated apologies, she refused to offer easy forgiveness. Having walked through life's bitterest realities, she knew all too well that only she could truly measure the bittersweet hardships of her journey.
