About Childhood Sweethearts, Happy Ever After
Zhang Shu and Xie Nian were inseparable childhood sweethearts. They made a fairy-tale promise at an opera troupe: to be together forever. Then life pulled them apart. After her parents’ divorce, Zhang Shu moved away with her mother and changed her name to Jiang Shu. Xie Nian went abroad at his grandfather’s wish, renamed Xie Jingyan. Eighteen years passed. When they finally met again, neither recognized the other. Xie Jingyan, now the CEO of Xie Group, accidentally got chewing gum stuck on Jiang Shu’s skirt. When he tried to help, she mistook him for a pervert and beat him up in public—a hilarious start to their second encounter. As it happened, Jiang Shu was an employee at his company. To escape her mother’s pressure to marry a man she didn’t love, she blurted out that she was the CEO’s fiancée. The rumor spread like wildfire. Tired of his mother’s constant matchmaking, Xie Jingyan decided to play along. He proposed a contract relationship. They bickered, they clashed, and slowly, against all odds, they fell in love. She defended him at family banquets, fought off workplace bullies, and won everyone over with her fierce honesty. A jealous rival, Xu Jiaojiao, discovered the truth and teamed up with Jiang Shu’s money-hungry family to kidnap her. Jiang Shu fought back with courage. Xie Jingyan rushed to save her and proposed on the spot. Their wedding was perfect—until Xu Jiaojiao crashed it, claiming Jiang Shu was just a stand-in for a long-lost love. But the ultimate twist arrived: that long-lost love was Jiang Shu herself. The childhood sweetheart he had searched for eighteen years was standing right beside him. All the villains were brought to justice. Jiang Shu finally broke free from her toxic family. Together, she and Xie Jingyan had a son and a daughter, named Niannian and Suisui—wishing for peace and joy through every year. They returned to their hometown, where the fairy-tale promise they made as children finally came true. After all the twists and turns, the one they were meant to be with was always each other.
