Eighty-year-old Lin Guilan had been a "doormat" all her life—until her birthday, when her husband asked for a divorce, gave all their property to his mistress, and her own son called her a "burden." On the verge of collapse, she suddenly recalled her past: she was once a top chemistry student at a prestigious university, tricked into dropping out by her husband's forged withdrawal papers and forced to give up her career for marriage. Awakened, Lin Guilan fought back: she reclaimed her dowry house with a prenuptial agreement, started a handmade soap business with her old friend using her college-era formula, and found support from Kong Defeng, her neighbor who'd loved her silently for decades. When her ex-husband tried to reconcile, she slapped the divorce papers on the table; when her son begged her to come home, she pointed to a new order and said, "I'm too busy to be your 'maid' anymore." When her soap business went viral overseas and her alma mater invited her to speak, she stood on stage and smiled: "It took me eighty years to realize—A woman's life is never for others."
