Xia Xia, a recently heartbroken young professional, was wallowing in her rental after a breakup when her retired detective mom showed up unannounced for a "surprise check." True to her "tough" reputation, mom immediately turned Xia's "slacker life" upside down: she tossed all Xia's instant noodles to force her to cook, stormed into Xia's office to confront the colleague who'd been PUA-ing her, and even dug up dirt on Xia's ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend—revealing her to be a con artist—and took Xia to expose the fraud. Xia grumbled that mom was "stricter than a detective interrogating a suspect," until one night she caught mom secretly mending her torn suitcase with reading glasses. It hit her: mom's "toughness" wasn't about control—it was fear of Xia getting hurt. Mom had noticed Xia's breakup from her WeChat Moments weeks ago and came to help her "see through the lies of pretending to be fine and find the courage to start over." When a "slacker daughter" meets a "tough mom," who will win this battle of love hidden in bluntness?
