New Year's Eve: My Mother-in-Law and I Stole the Show

share time: 2025-12-11 06:02:34

Lin Xiaoman, an overworked office worker, has always had a distant relationship with her retired teacher mother-in-law, Zhou Xiufen—she finds Zhou too naggy, while Zhou complains Xiaoman cares more about work than family. When the company forces employees to bring family for a New Year's Eve performance, Xiaoman is at a loss until Zhou pulls out a jazz dance video she's secretly practiced for half a month: "I asked the girls in the community—young people love this." They stay up late practicing—Zhou panics when she messes up steps, and Xiaoman laughs, slowing down: "Even wrong steps can be cute!" On the big day, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in matching haze-blue outfits dance to "Herbalist Manual"—cool yet adorable. Colleagues scream and film, and Xiaoman suddenly sees in Zhou's sweaty forehead the unspoken wish: "I want to get closer to you."
