share time: 2025-10-30 00:30:18

Li Xiaoman, the sweet owner of "Sweet Pear Syrup Shop" in the alley, is in tears trying to raise money for her mother's surgery—until she's cornered at the counter by Lu Jingshen, a scheming CEO here to discuss demolition. He presses her relentlessly with an acquisition contract and keeps jogging her memory with the line: "The sweet pear soup you gave me ten years ago." Xiaoman thinks he's a profit-hungry capitalist, but one night she sees him squatting outside the shop, making pear soup for an elderly lady—and realizes his "toughness" hides a warm heart. But when Lu Jingshen pulls out a diamond ring and says, "Marry me, and both the shop and I are yours," Xiaoman panics—she's afraid her simple bowl of sweet pear soup can't live up to his ten-year-long deep affection. On the day her mother's surgery succeeds, Lu Jingshen takes out a crumpled candy wrapper: "You said 'only crybabies drink sweet soup' back then. Now I can protect you—can I be your 'crybaby' for life?"
