share time: 2026-01-15 12:35:07

Thirty-year-old Su Xiao faces constant workplace setbacks—her proposals are stolen, clients are poached. One night, she breaks down in the company restroom, only to find her mother Lin Shulan, a janitor, revising her discarded draft. Little does she know, this “ordinary aunt” who mops floors daily was once the “Planning Queen” of the advertising industry two decades ago! She retired to care for her terminally ill husband, but now, to protect her daughter, Lin reclaims her edge: she tweaks Su’s proposal to hit client pain points, calls out credit-stealing colleagues without mercy, and even helps Su land a viral project. When Lin’s hidden identity is exposed, the mother and daughter not only take down workplace bullies but also rediscover the brightest light in each other’s lives—turns out, “returning to prime” means me protecting you as you grow, and you accompanying me to reignite my passion.
