share time: 2026-05-27 00:35:05

For 30 years, Lin Lan has believed that "AA is the fairest in marriage", and the couple split household expenses precisely down the middle. Until her husband Chen Lang suddenly falls ill and is hospitalized, Lin Lan finds a stack of yellowed family accounts while sorting through odds and ends. Hidden in the books is Chen Lang’s secret over three decades—what she thought was "each pays half" was actually her husband secretly subsidizing her parents' family and saving for their daughter’s dowry. The so-called "AA indifference" she complained about turned out to be tenderness hidden in the books. When she lays out all the bills, this 30-year AA deal reverses into the most touching affection, making her realize that there is never absolute fairness in love.
