Does it take a lifetime to repay the kindness of one life?
In an ice cave in late winter, naval officer Lin Jianguo fell into the water. His comrade Chen Zhiqiang risked his life to save him, leaving behind an orphan and widowed mother. In order to repay his kindness, Lin Jianguo made a vow: Let his newborn daughter Lin Xiaoya marry the benefactor's son Chen Dongsheng! This is how the baby decides the fate of the two of them.
Chen Dongsheng, a poor boy from the city, has remembered his marriage contract since he was a child and regards Lin Xiaoya as the light of his life. Seven years of secret letters, every word of which is deeply loved has fallen into disrepair. When she showed up with her boyfriend, he could only tear up the engagement and bury his love deeply. Until Lin's father died of illness.
Lin Xiaoya, the general's daughter, has been bound by a marriage contract since she was a child and longs for freedom. When he was in college, he fell in love with Ma Wenxuan, a gentle and talented man, but was blocked by his mother and lost his love. In order to appease her critically ill father, she pretended to agree to the marriage. After being moved by Chen Dongsheng's forbearing love for many years, she decided to get married regardless of her family's objections. The daily necessities after marriage, the contempt of her family, and the shadow of her ex-boyfriend made her and her husband drift apart.
Chen Dongsheng lived in his mother-in-law's house like an outsider, and was criticized for being underpaid. The nanny was picky about his cooking. Misunderstanding that she had rekindled her relationship with her ex-boyfriend, he lost control and strangled her neck to interrogate her. When she was in trouble and unemployed, he was "caught in bed" for helping his "love rival" Ding Xiaoman. He slapped her and left the house! In the heavy rain, he knelt down and begged his in-law family to take her in, just to protect her in her most difficult time.
When she put aside her pride and sued for peace, he filed for divorce because Ding Xiaoman was critically ill. Lin Xiaoya lay on the operating table and donated a kidney to her "love rival"! The two people, who had gone through the torture of life, death and love, embraced each other in tears. He spent half his life guarding the oath, and she used one of her kidneys to repay the debt. Can this baby kiss that began with kindness finally be redeemed and bloom into a flower called true love?
