In a small and inconspicuous town, 37-year-old Chen Li lives a monotonous life day after day. As a housewife, her days are filled with housework and the task of taking care of her two children. Her husband, Zhou Hai, is a workaholic who devotes almost all of his time and energy to his construction company.
Chen Li's life seems to be calm and orderly, but deep down, she craves passion and attention. She began to feel dissatisfied with Zhou Hai's neglect. He was always busy with work and rarely even noticed the efforts she made for the family.
By chance, Chen Li met a man named Liu Bo during her child's school activities. Liu Bo's humor and praise for her made her feel a long-lost happiness. They began a secret exchange, and Chen Li found herself looking forward to every meeting with Liu Bo more and more.
As time passed, Chen Li's behavior began to become bold. She began to find excuses to leave home during the day and meet Liu Bo in secret. She thought she could balance this double life perfectly, but the guilt and worries about her family gradually increased.
Although Zhou Hai was busy with work, he was not unaware of the changes in his wife. He found that Chen Li has been absent-minded lately, and her phone is almost never left with her. One night, Zhou Hai decided to check Chen Li's phone, hoping to find the reason for the change in her behavior.
While Chen Li was taking a bath, Zhou Hai quietly turned on her mobile phone. He saw the ambiguous text messages between Chen Li and Liu Bo, and each message was like a heavy blow, making him feel unbelievable pain. Zhou Hai realized that there was a serious problem in his marriage.
Zhou Hai decided to take action. He began to pay close attention to Chen Li's every move, and planned to block the door himself when she and Liu Bo met next. He wanted to see it all with his own eyes, hoping to find a solution to the problem.
A few days later, Chen Li told Zhou Hai that she was going to the supermarket to shop, and Zhou Hai knew that it was just an excuse. He decided to go home early and wait for Chen Li and Liu Bo to appear. His heart was full of contradictions and pain, but he knew that he had to face it all.
Chen Li didn't know that Zhou Hai had discovered her secret. As usual, she arranged a meeting with Liu Bo. She told Zhou Hai that she was going to the supermarket and left the house in a hurry. Zhou Hai looked at her back, his heart full of pain and disappointment.
Zhou Hai returned home early and hid in a nearby corner, waiting for Chen Li and Liu Bo to arrive. His mood was mixed, with anger and sadness. He didn't know how to face what was coming.
Soon, Liu Bo appeared in Zhou Hai's sight. He saw Liu Bo ring his doorbell, and then Chen Li opened the door to greet him. Zhou Hai felt a wave of dizziness, and he couldn't believe his eyes. He took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to walk out.
Zhou Hai's appearance shocked both Chen Li and Liu Bo. Chen Li's face showed a panicked expression, while Liu Bo looked embarrassed. Zhou Hai stood at the door, looking at them coldly, his heart full of anger.
"Zhou Hai, I..." Chen Li tried to explain, but Zhou Hai interrupted her.
"I don't want to hear any explanation. I just want to know, what the hell is going on between you. Zhou Hai's voice revealed disappointment and anger.
Neither Chen Li nor Liu Bo could answer. Zhou Hai looked at them, and the pain in his heart was indescribable. He realizes that his marriage has broken down and his family is in jeopardy.
After a heated argument and deep pain, Zhou Hai and Chen Li decided to seek professional help. They started taking marriage counseling sessions in the hope of finding a solution to their problem.
During the counseling process, Zhou Hai and Chen Li began to relearn how to communicate and understand each other. They begin to realize that they all need to take some responsibility for the failure of their marriage. Zhou Hai admits that he neglects his family too much, while Chen Li also realizes that her actions have caused harm to her family.
Through hard work and the healing of time, the relationship between Zhou Hai and Chen Li began to gradually recover. They began to rebuild trust and work together for the future of their family. Although the process was difficult, they believed that their marriage could be saved if they were willing to put in the effort.
