Fairy Tales Are All Lies

share time: 2026-01-08 06:04:29

Lin Xiaoman’s "Fairy Tale Repair Shop" is a healing hub for city dwellers: she makes glass shoe bookmarks for the broken-hearted, builds "letter-delivering" forest mailboxes for left-behind kids, firmly believing fairy tales are adults’ "soft armor". Until sarcastic blogger Gu Mingyuan bursts in with a camera—he’s a "fairy tale debunker", fresh from exposing an internet-famous spot that passed plastic stars off as meteors, and even digs up her father’s old lie: "magic cures princess sickness" to get her through chemotherapy. When Gu Mingyuan threatens to reveal the safety hazards of the "Thumbelina B&B" she’s helping an elderly woman build, Lin Xiaoman wavers for the first time: she knows the pumpkin carriage is made of scrap metal, the mushroom lights are second-hand, but this is the grandma’s last hope to call back her granddaughter who’s been gone for ten years. To expose the "lying fairy tale", or guard the "disguise of love"? In this war over the "truth of fairy tales", there’s a depth of feeling more piercing than lies.
