In the hit drama "The Second Half of My Life", Shen Zhuoran's emotional experience in his later years made the audience sigh.

The retired professor originally thought that he had finally met the "second spring" after losing his wife - the gentle and considerate head nurse Lian Yipian, but he didn't expect that behind this seemingly beautiful sunset love was actually a well-designed calculation and pity.

The head nurse was so understanding that she not only listened patiently to his heart, but even shed tears for him, making him mistakenly think that he had found a soul mate.

Soon, Lian Yilian moved into the Shen family with her son Lian Jin and became the new hostess.

At first, she showed meticulousness - taking care of Shen Zhuoran's diet and daily life, caring about his health, and even taking the initiative to learn his literary hobbies, creating the illusion of "true love".

Shen Zhuoran was so moved that he was even willing to change his habits for decades for her, cooking and doing housework himself, which ⊙∀⊙! However, the appearance of sweetness was soon broken.

When Shen Zhuoran proposed to officially get married, Lian Yilian revealed her true intentions - she asked Shen Zhuoran to transfer the property to her son Lianjin.

Although Shen Zhuoran was willing to let Lian Yilian enjoy the right of residence after marriage, he couldn't accept the direct transfer to Lian Jin.

What's even more shocking is that Lian Yilian did not stop there. After Shen Zhuoran refused, she began to secretly transfer his deposits.

Shen Zhuoran originally thought that his pension and savings were enough to spend his old age in peace, but he didn't expect that Lian Yilian had already set his sights on this money.

It wasn't until Shen Dai (Shen Zhuoran's daughter) found out that her father's savings were missing, that the Shen family realized the seriousness of the problem.

As the plot developed, Shen Zhuoran and his daughter Shen Qing investigated and found that it was not the first time that Lian Yilian had used this method.

She had had three previous relationships, each of which ended with damage to the man's property.

She is good at disguising herself as a "gentle and virtuous" person, and after gaining trust, she can ask for real estate, deposits, and even direct transfer of property for various reasons.

Only then did Shen Zhuoran understand that Lian Yilian's "love" for him was nothing more than a well-designed scam.

It's not the person she looks at, it's his house, his savings, and his stable pension.

This calculation hit Shen Zhuoran deeply, he originally thought that he could still meet pure feelings in his later years, but he didn't expect that the reality was so cruel.

Lian Yilian's ruthlessness is not only because she seeks money, but also because she takes advantage of an old man's loneliness and desire to be loved.

In the end, Shen Zhuoran chose to break with Lian Yilian completely, and even considered recovering the loss through legal means.

But the damage has already been done – his trust has been trampled on, and the sense of security in his later years has been completely destroyed.

"The Second Half of My Life" reveals the pitfalls that elderly people may face when remarrying through the story of Shen Zhuoran.

In reality, similar cases are not uncommon - some people with bad intentions specifically target the property of the elderly who live alone, and commit fraud in the name of "feelings".

Remarriage is not impossible for older people, but it is essential to be vigilant!

Shen Zhuoran's story tells us that there is nothing wrong with pursuing happiness in later life, but we must keep our eyes open and don't let the "gentle trap" ruin the rest of our lives.
