Qiang Hongtao's father passed away early, leaving behind three-year-old him and his mother to fend for themselves.
To raise him, his mother worked until she became ill. To pay for his education, all her relatives had grown afraid of lending her money, no longer daring to associate with their family.
Also, she refused to remarry, just so that he wouldn't be bullied.
Later, just a few years after Qiang Hongtao started working upon graduation, before he could provide a better life for his mother, she passed away.
Afterward, when he didn't own a car or a house, Zhang Meijuan chose to be with him.
The two of them struggled together, not daring to have a child too early. Now that they had both a house and a car,
They were able to consider having children.
But then Qiang Hongtao... ended up like this.
How could he let Zhang Meijuan become like his mother?
Qiang Hongtao looked at Zhang Meijuan, his eyes full of guilt.
But his resolve was even stronger.
