Because he is spoiled by his parents, Khoi (Le Nguyen Bao) always finds ways to tease and cause trouble for Bao (Thanh Thuc). When trouble arises, the one who gets scolded and punished is none other than Bao.
Everything started to change when Bao accidentally overheard the conversation between his stepmother and her stepdaughter about himself and his plans for the future.
Aware of his position as a stepchild, Bao changed his thoughts and attitude from then on, no longer resisting but obediently listening, studying well to compete for his father's love, choosing to be patient to live and wait for the day he grows up to make his stepmother and her cruel biological mother who abandoned him taste the bitter fruit of what they have sown.
Under Mr. Thien's training, Bao became an almost perfect copy of his father - intelligent, talented but cunning and scheming.
At the age of 18, Bao went abroad to study, and when he returned home, he became independent. His efforts over many years were rewarded with Mr. Thien's respect.
Not as talented as Bao, the pampering and protection of Mr. Thien and Mrs. Thanh (Than Thuy Ha) turned Khoi (Le Nguyen Bao) into an incompetent, incompetent person who only knows how to play around and rely on his family.
Speaking of Mr. Thien and Mrs. Thanh, over the years their marital relationship has remained strong and warm. However, the happy family is only a facade and in Mrs. Thanh's mind, while Mr. Thien has long been bored with his wife and secretly had affairs with young girls behind her back.
Bao knew about this but did not expose his father. On the contrary, he was happy to see his stepmother living in her husband's deception without knowing it.
