Synopsis
70-year-old Shen Mengjun has been troubled recently: her son failed in his business and asked her to help him pay off his debts; her daughter is about to get married and is waiting for her to pay for a house; she was given money for a demolition project but was cheated out of it; Shen Mengjun asked her old classmate Chen Yumei to lend her money and was taunted instead.
However, her partner Xiang Dahai, who has never cared about family matters and has been a "good man" all his life, still accepts requests for money from relatives and friends.
After a quarrel with Xiang Dahai, Shen Mengjun swallows half a bottle of "sleeping pills" in anger but accidentally returns back to her twenties.
The young Shen Mengjun is determined to live for herself. She becomes close friends with her granddaughter Xiang Xinran, and together they participate in a music talent contest. Because she is beautiful and capable, she is loved by many young men.
At this point, her partner Xiang Hai discovers the secret of the "sleeping pill". Seeing that Mengjun is being courted by someone else, he eats the rest of the pill.
When he wakes up, the old man who used to be so slow has turned into a "fresh" with tense muscles.
The younger Xiang Dahai joins the contest as expected, and becomes a rival to Mengjun. Although they both look young and beautiful, their mind is still in their old age and are causing a lot of jokes.
They don't want anyone to know about their relationship, but the familiarity that comes with being married for fifty years cannot be hidden, and this leads to many misunderstandings. Even Chen Yumei, an old classmate who had long been suspicious of them, kept giving pressure.
The marathon was so close to the finish line, only to be kicked back to the start and have to run it all over again.
Everything has to be experienced again, but can these two 70-year-old hearts really handle the life of a 20-year-old?
