Her Secret Homecoming

Li Youning, a design graduate, chooses to stay and build a career alone in the big city after graduation. However, she suffers constant workplace bullying and oppression from her supervisor. When she stands up for herself and quits her job, her former boss blacklists her across the entire industry, leaving her stuck with no career prospects. Downhearted and helpless, Li Youning saves a little boy named Shao Sinan who is crossing the street unattended. The boy figures out that Li Youning is the woman his father (in truth, the boy’s maternal uncle, the male lead) once loved, so he immediately acts as a matchmaker and calls the male lead over. When Li Youning sees the boy’s father, she realizes it is the man she had a secret crush on throughout college, stirring mixed emotions of joy and heartache inside her. Learning that the male lead is single and raising a child alone, she acts on impulse after getting drunk and drags him into getting married. Their feelings for each other grow warmer after marriage, yet Li Youning dares not tell her family that she secretly wed and became a stepmother. For the Spring Festival, she is forced to return to her hometown and pretend she is still single.
