Due to her exceptional performance, she was tasked with overseeing the maternal and child sector for better prospects. This presented a significant challenge for Xiao Yan, who believed in self-love and prioritized a dual-income-no-kids lifestyle. With the assistance of You Ya, a full-time mother and her girlfriend, Xiao Yan began to understand the challenges and sacrifices of motherhood, leading to a transformation in You Ya's personality from dependency to independence. As Xiao Yan focused on the maternal and infant project, her competitor Chen Jiao Rui had to leave due to pregnancy. Upon returning to work after giving birth, Chen Jiao Rui struggled to balance her family and career, feeling overwhelmed. Xiao Yan stepped in to help Chen Jiao Rui regain her confidence and realize the selfless and genuine love she had for her children. Through this experience, Xiao Yan also underwent a transformation from self-love to embracing love for family and friends, respecting mothers, and cherishing children, ultimately learning the true meaning of empathy and genuine love. In the end, the three women, each with their own strengths and determination, came together to embark on a business venture, supporting and inspiring each other as they navigated the challenges and joys of life.
