Finding Mr. Right

In Beijing, Jiajia lives a gilded life funded by a wealthy boyfriend, but her world shifts when she discovers she is pregnant. Seeking a way to secure her child's future, she heads to the United States hoping to make the baby a citizen. There she crosses paths with Frank, a pragmatically minded helper who offers a boost and a new perspective on what truly makes a life worthwhile. As Frank nudges her to rethink her attachment to luxury and status, Jiajia confronts the real question: who is the right partner for a life built on more than money. Unexpectedly a practical friend helps her see that happiness may lie closer to her heart than to her wallet. It lingers long.
