Starting is a little boring.
“Love’s Ambition” is a story about several people — the female protagonist, her sister, her sister’s ex and current partners, the male protagonist, and his family.
Xu Yan, the female protagonist, has struggled a lot since her childhood. Her parents never praised her for anything, and she always felt that they loved her elder sister, Qiao Lin, more than her.
At one point, Xu Yan wanted to study further and go to college, but her father refused. She began to feel suffocated in her parents’ house, so one day she ran away to her grandmother’s home and decided never to return. Since then, she has struggled a lot to secure her position at work.
During that time, she met a man who gave her the warmth she had been longing for. They fell in love, but she hid her true identity because he and his family belonged to a higher social class and expected a wife and daughter-in-law of the same standard. She endured all the humiliation given by her future in-laws but eventually succeeded. In the end, she finally got the life she had longed for.
Meanwhile, her sister faced her own struggles. Tired of the expectations of her fiancé’s parents and her own, she ran away to her younger sister’s place, where she finally found the life she had always dreamed of.
The male protagonist is somewhat arrogant and believes that money can solve everything. This is just a small glimpse into the main characters’ lives in the story.
I didn’t like the story at first — it felt dull until the elder sister entered the picture. Before her, the plot was quite boring, and I was fed up with the female protagonist’s attitude and acting. However, her sister’s character was cheerful and carefree, and I really liked the man she was paired with. I thought something good might come from their story, and after their divorce, the drama finally became more interesting and stayed engaging until the end.
