The Story

Stomping on her own blood to secure a half-million dollar windfall, stepmother Liu Shufen forces Chen Feifei into a marriage with the violent Wang Daqiang, sacrificing her own daughter Lili in the process. Feifei suffers brutal treatment at her in-laws' hands, enduring forced labor, starvation, and permanent reproductive damage after being denied care following the birth of a girl. When the Wang family schemes to replace her with a new wife for a son, Feifei escapes with her infant daughter, Xiaobao. Collapsing in the streets, she is found by Meijuan, her long-lost biological mother, who now commands a vast fortune. Armed with sudden wealth, Feifei demands a divorce and the return of her dowry. The greedy Wangs attempt to curry favor with her new status, but Feifei exposes their true nature by feigning bankruptcy. They immediately turn on her, revealing their lack of integrity. Feifei ultimately secures her divorce, leaving the Wang family to face the full weight of legal consequences for their actions.
