For three years, Gu Yan, a live-in son-in-law, has played the meek and submissive role, but beneath the surface lies a cunning and calculating mind. When his wife, Luo Hanshuang, humiliates him publicly for failing to conceive, Gu Yan begins his quiet revenge. He first gains control over his widowed mother-in-law, Wen Shu, and then falls prey to his scheming sister-in-law, Luo Lingxi, who manipulates him with aphrodisiacs and secrets. After Luo Lingxi seizes the position of matriarch, Luo Hanshuang and Gu Yan join forces to fight back, ultimately exposing that the child is not Gu Yan's bloodline and driving Luo Lingxi out. The title of matriarch returns to its rightful owner, but the real power lies with the live-in husband.
