On her way to school, Lin Qiao is unexpectedly transported 25 years into the future, only to discover she's the mother of the male lead in a campus drama. In the story, she abandoned her husband and son when he was ten, shaping his arrogant and unruly personality.
Now, standing in an unfamiliar high school, Lin Qiao faces her grown son, who bears an uncanny resemblance to her. With a smirk, he casually says, ""Hey, beauty, add me on WeChat?"" Lin Qiao is left speechless.
At eighteen, Gu Xingran is the infamous bad boy of Nancheng High School, feared by all. But during a game of truth or dare, a young girl scolds him furiously, ""How dare you talk to your mom like that!"" To his shock, he realizes she really is his mom.
Gu Xingran has always hated his mother for leaving him, and now that she's back, he vows to make her pay for the pain of the past eight years. Yet, he soon discovers that the eighteen-year-old Lin Qiao isn't just a mothershe's a force to be reckoned with.
From that day on, Nancheng High School witnesses bizarre scenes: the once untouchable Gu Xingran trailing behind the new transfer student Lin Qiao, seemingly provoking her but actually... serving her?
""Lin Qiao, your backpack is so tacky Wait, why are you throwing it at me? I'm not carrying it for you! Come back here!""
""Seriously, you can't even solve this? Was education this bad 25 years ago? Fine, second questionchoose B.""
""Lin Qiao, this is the last time I'm running to the store for you. Next time, handle your own errands!""
The classmates watching: Looks like getting humiliated becomes second nature after a while.
Meanwhile, Gu Zhixun, Lin Qiao's childhood sweetheart and husband, returns from a business trip to hear the shocking news from their son. He thought he hated the woman who abandoned him during his lowest point. But when he sees the eighteen-year-old Lin Qiao, smiling brightly with stars in her eyes and teasing, ""Gu Zhixun, you've aged so much,"" he's left speechless.
After a long pause, Gu Zhixun sighs. Fine, since she's here, he might as well treat her like a daughter and spoil her.
