McGee and every ex-boyfriend seem to be good friends. She will not end up with each other because of a breakup, and she will be open to everyone. McGee made a plan about raising a child by himself. She found a university alumnus who agreed to donate sperm. As the father of the child, the other party did not have to bear any responsibility for the child.
Everything seems to be going well.
However, she fell in love with accidental acquaintances. She worked as a teaching assistant in the same university. John, a well-known expert in academia, who likes to write novels, stubbornly wanted to be a novelist. McGee became the first reader of John’s novels. Because of this novel, they actually fell in love. McGee got his wish and became a mother and wife.
John divorced and formed a new family with McGee.
McGee was born in a single-parent family. Her mother died when she was sixteen. After that, she lived with her father again. These reasons may have contributed to her unique and strong character. In order to take good care of John’s two children and one of her own children, she is busy every day, trying to make everything perfect. She believes that life must be under her own control, even if she feels very, very tired and needs a life. When an individual came to help her, John would only help her and make her life more busy.
When she realized that in this marriage between her and John, only the nanny and the child were left, she was disappointed. In other words, she flinched. This is far from what she wanted. In the beginning, she just wanted a child and wanted to raise the child by herself. Unexpectedly, she had four more children in her life. Yes, her child, John's two children, and John. John, who is academically accomplished, is a mess in his life. In order to maintain this marriage, McGee tried to maintain the kind of admiration she had of John when she first met him, so she did not hesitate to sacrifice her career and did her best to do what a wife should do. She was afraid that once Without this kind of worship, the relationship between her and John will also be lost.
As a man who has not grown up, John didn't realize the meaning of marriage at all, nor did he notice the changes of McGee. He enjoyed McGee's wholehearted dedication and didn't feel anything wrong. He and his ex-wife maintain close contact, because they study the common field, it is inevitable to meet, and there are two children who are in puberty, so all these are intertwined into a net, an invisible net, two women Entangled with a man and three children.
At a book meeting, McGee met John's ex-wife, Qiao Qi. Qiao Qi is a very good woman. She publishes books and conducts interviews. She is a successful woman. She has the common characteristic of successful women, that is, she is very ego. Qiao Qi recognized McGee, and she had seen McGee's picture on her daughter's cell phone. At first, McGee felt very upset. After all, it was because of her that caused their marriage to break up. She was a third party and got involved in their marriage. McGee knew this very well. She was instinctively afraid of Qiao Qi. However, nothing happened. Qiaoqi is a very rational woman. She thanked McGee for taking good care of her two children. She did not deny or accuse McGee of her involvement. She told McGee that she only found out after the divorce. The downside is that she doesn't love John, but she cares too much about her career, ignores family, and ignores John. Now that she has succeeded, she feels that she still loves John.
McGee began to seriously reflect on what happened in the past few years. This seemingly perfect marriage of hers. She and Qiao Qi met frequently, and they became friends. McGee started his new plan. Yes, she is such a person, no matter what she does, everything is under her own control. She wants to take control of her life, starting from taking control of her marriage. She wanted to match Qiao Qi and John together. After obtaining Qiao Qi's consent, she implemented her plan.
Everything went as she wished.
In McGee's plan, Qiao Qi pretends to meet John by chance. With Qiao Qi's encouragement, John is freed from his difficult to publish novels, and his successful speech at academic conferences allows him to find himself. John realizes that Qiao Qi is the one who understands his needs best, and Qiao Qi will give him a heavy hammer when he is lost and let him be herself. And McGee? Because of the blind worship of myself, I encourage myself to write down the novel that never ends. After that, I will act as a good mother, give myself, and satisfy any wish I have. In Qiaoqi, John can find his own value, but in front of McGee, he feels like a kid in the way.
John had to face his current situation. He lives with McGee, but he and his ex-wife roll the sheets. He confessed everything to McGee. McGee was very sad, but McGee was not angry, but asked him to return to Qiao Qi. This made John ashamed and moved.
Just when McGee thought her plan had been successful, her good friend accidentally revealed the secret to John. John felt that he had been fooled and was very angry. He accused McGee and Georgie of treating him as a marionette and ran away resolutely.
McGee fell into a passive position. She tried to balance everything alone. Her character does not allow her to make unplanned mistakes. But this time, she was confused. Perhaps, there are some things that you can't easily control yourself. The wise Qiao Qi helped her. Qiao Qi told McGee, give it up, the desire to control everything, try to let everything go with the flow, maybe it would be better. McGee accepted the suggestion.
The story has an incredible ending.
John and Qiaoqi remarried. They are happy because they know what the other person wants and what the other person is good at. Although they still quarrel, they can find fun in the quarrel, and they love each other even more.
McGee lives with her daughter. She still tries to control everything. She can't live without a plan. But she was no longer alone, she got the child she wanted, which was also her happiness.
Now, McGee and George, John, and John's two children are good friends. Although this is not McGee's plan, after letting the flow go, everything has unexpected endings. On the other hand, McGee's plan was a success.
