All kinds of tangled situations in love relationships: violence and tenderness, ugliness and beauty, sadism and healing, reality and romance, and so on, all in -Happy Ever After?--.

This drama about love and marriage is limited to one or two narrators per episode. By switching narrators, narrative perspectives, and time and space, it constantly overturns and repositions the understanding of characters and events, thus highlighting that the world of love has always been complex.This is Rashomon, each has its own version, and the authorities are confused.The whole play is divided into four parts: divorce, infidelity, wrongful love and repair, exploring the situations or questions that everyone has experienced: What is love?Why get married?Why cheat?Why divorce?Why revenge?How to let go?How to recover?How to stay together till old age?Perhaps, only by daring to look directly at the ugliness, darkness, and brokenness of human nature can we have a chance to repair the cracks in a relationship.

After listening to Zhang Mingxin's account, the psychiatrist asked her if she had considered that the novel might be just Pan Shanren's way of venting his anger.Zhang Mingxin shook his head and said that Pan Shanren had written all the things that he did not dare to express into the novel. He believed that Pan Shanren was no different from wanting to kill her and was robbing her of her happiness.The psychiatrist asked her if she had sat down and talked with Pan Shanren.

She thought it was her fault and she should not try to persuade them to reconcile.She realized that they no longer loved each other, so she would no longer try to persuade them, and she cried with self-reproach.

She smiled and then asked about Lu Jinglin and Gan Chengjun's marriage.Lu Jinglin told her that their wedding had been put on hold because they did not want her and Pan Shanren to get hurt.Lu Jinglin also said that Gan Chengjun seemed to have a phobia about marriage.

When Pan Shanren was conceiving ideas in the office, Lu Jinglin suddenly came in with some people and some clothes, saying that these were sponsored by him and asking him not to dress shabby in the future.Pan Shanren angrily thought that Lu Jinglin did this to humiliate him, but Lu Jinglin said that they were in the same boat and that he might lose Gan Chengjun like Pan Shanren in the future.Then Lu Jinglin left, and Pan Shanren finally understood something.

The next day, Pan Shanren went to Gan Chengjun to pay back the money and found that he was still using the pen given by Zhang Mingxin, feeling mixed.Later, Pan Shanren went to Zhang Mingxin's house to pick up things. He saw the flute given to Yueyue by Gan Chengjun and said something sarcastically.Zhang Mingxin teased him about being jealous, but Pan Shanren denied it and invited him to stay for dinner together.At the dinner table, Pan Shanren saw Zhang Mingxin's seductive intentions and bluntly warned her that she would regret it and asked her to let them go.Later, Pan Shanren stood up to leave, but Zhang Mingxin hugged him from behind, and the two eventually had sex.When they woke up the next day, the two completely ended their marriage.

On the theme of infidelity, Lu Jinghai puts forward her point of view: love should not be bound by morality.However, others in the team did not agree with her idea, leading to several arguments.Fortunately, Cheng Tianhui stepped in to mediate the dispute.

Lu Jinglin received her grandmother's request and came to care for Lu Jinghai.When the two met, there was an immediate spark and they confronted each other.Lu Jinghai learned from Cheng Tianhui that Pan Shanren was in a divorce lawsuit, which made her both happy and worried.She asked Cheng Tianhui for her cell phone back and wanted to confirm whether the divorce had anything to do with her.Cheng Tianhui read part of the mobile phone message to Lu Jinghai, writing about the importance of Zhang Mingxin and his daughter to Pan Shanren.Lu Jinghai couldn't listen anymore and interrupted Cheng Tianhui's recitation.The two began to discuss why this matter would be made public. After all, there was only one photo of Lu Jinghai and Pan Shanren, and Zhang Mingxin should have no chance to get this photo.Lu Jinghai thought for a moment and suddenly remembered that Lu Jinglin came to see her that day. She guessed that Lu Jinglin should have done it, but as her biological sister, Lu Jinghai still felt very sad.

Grandma wanted to go to Lu Jinglin to help Lu Jinghai, but she was accidentally injured and hospitalized.Lu Jinghai felt very guilty about this and apologized to her grandmother.Grandma understood that Lu Jinghai had really seduced a married man, and felt very ashamed, thinking that she had not educated Lu Jinghai properly.The two hugged each other and cried. At this moment, Lu Jinglin came.Lu Jinghai called her aside, and the two had a big fight about that matter.

Lu Jinghai wanted to find Pan Shanren, but Cheng Tianhui left angrily.Gan Chengjun found Lu Jinghai and hoped that she would remain silent.Lu Jinghai told Gan Chengjun in detail what Lu Jinglin had done.After the divorce lawsuit between Pan Shanren and Zhang Mingxin ended, Lu Jinghai no longer wanted to hide, but Lu Jinglin found her and expressed his willingness to provide her with all the expenses so that she could study abroad.Lu Jinghai dismissed this, but Lu Jinglin insisted that he had good intentions.

Lu Jinghai was filled with resentment towards Lu Jinglin and Zhang Mingxin because they had teamed up to deal with him, even though Lu Jinghai was Lu Jinglin's biological sister.Lu Jinglin had a good impression of Zhang Mingxin, and even refused to marry Lu Jinghai for this reason.Now, Lu Jinghai feels very painful and doesn't know how to deal with it.She truly loves Gan Chengjun, but she is in trouble.

In order to solve the problem, Lu Jinghai went directly to Zhang Mingxin's company to find her.She first apologized to Zhang Mingxin, but Zhang Mingxin rejected her and asked her to leave.Lu Jinghai warned Zhang Mingxin not to damage her relationship with her sister again and not to force her to leave.Zhang Mingxin called her shameless, saying that she broke up other people's marriages but pretended to be a victim.Lu Jinghai admitted that she did not cherish Pan Shanren, which led to the current situation.Zhang Mingxin laughed a few times and gave the novel written by Pan Shanren to Lu Jinghai, asking her to go back and slowly read the essence of it.

After Lu Jinghai read the novel, she found that Pan Shanren described her as a slut who kept seducing him.She was completely shattered, so she went to Pan Shanren and asked him why he wrote it like that.Pan Shanren opened the door silently, and Lu Jinghai followed in.

Lu Jinghai shared with Cheng Tianhui that she fell in love with a married man, and Cheng Tianhui reminded her to be careful not to play with fire.Pan Shanren began to avoid Lu Jinghai, but she took the initiative to find him and told him that the hug that day was just to comfort him and let him not think too seriously.Pan Shanren insisted on no longer contacting each other, thinking that it would be good for both of them.Lu Jinghai said that there is nothing wrong with liking someone, she just wants to accompany him.

Later, Pan Shanren became emotional because of the conflict with Zhang Mingxin, and made a mistake with Lu Jinghai.After the recollection, Pan Shanren said that the divorce was not Lu Jinghai's responsibility, but Lu Jinghai sadly accused him of thinking that, like others, this was not true love at all.
