share time: 2025-12-19 00:30:41

Lin Xiaoman, a down-and-out art academy graduate, sets up a stall selling her grandfather’s "century-old power pills" to raise money for her grandma’s medical bills—only to be mocked as a fraud. That is, until a corporate slave who’d worked three straight days regains full energy instantly after taking one, a high school student bullied by thugs finds the courage to fight back, and even an elderly aunt can carry a sack of rice up three floors. Just as her business booms, a mysterious man in a suit shows up, claiming, "The 'power' you’re selling is our company’s lost mental power reagent," and produces a lab contract signed by her grandfather. It turns out the "power pills" are actually "emotion repair pills" her grandfather made from leftover research materials—and the company behind it is eyeing this "pill that cures exhaustion," wanting to buy the patent and eliminate anyone in the way. As Lin Xiaoman fights to keep her stall to save her grandma and outwit the mysterious man, she discovers her grandfather gave up a high-paying research career just to help ordinary people with these "little pills"—and she’s determined to sell her grandfather’s "power" to every tired heart.
