Chen Boyuan was sensible and levelheaded. The only exception was his childhood nickname, Tangyuan, which was so cute that his classmates all assumed he'd been born on the Lantern Festival.

His friends knew the real story and couldn't stop laughing.

Back then, the parents of the Chen and Zhou families were busy with work, so when Zhou Sui was one year old, they left her at the Chen household. When she got hungry, Chen Boyuan would cook her tangyuan.

Zhou's mother: "Boyuan just got back. You two should spend some time together. Ask him questions and learn from him."

Later, Zhou Sui kissed Chen Boyuan on the rooftop until his lips were swollen.

The two mothers, who had come to pick up the laundry together, stared in stunned silence.

.

As a child, Zhou Sui thought her life was a fairy tale.

Her parents went to work, her sister went to school, and no one paid attention to her. She even had a sickly childhood friend she could bully.

As she grew up, Zhou Sui felt like she was living in a tragedy.

First came her model big sister, and then a little brother born after her parents tried for a third child. Everyone told her, "You need to be more mature."

No one told her why, or how she was supposed to grow up.

That all changed when her sickly childhood friend recovered and moved back.

Zhou Sui realized that Chen Boyuan was different from everyone else.

.

"You've been part of every year of my life."

"Let's keep it that way for the rest of our lives."

Chen Boyuan loves Zhou Sui more than anyone else in the world.
