The Crabapple Never Betrayed Spring

share time: 2025-11-20 06:02:05

Lin Xiaoman returns to her hometown to inherit her grandmother’s "Wei Chun Bookstore" and reunites with Gu Zhao—her childhood crush, now a botanist fighting developers to save the century-old crabapple tree at the town’s entrance. Unresolved resentment from Gu’s sudden move years ago lingers, but they’re forced to team up for the tree: Xiaoman finds her grandmother’s crabapple journal, revealing a past generation’s love promise hidden in the tree; Gu admits he left to save his dying mother, and the unsaid goodbye became his regret. As excavators approach the tree late at night, they stand before it with the yellowed journal—this time, can they save the tree, and their long-overdue "spring"?
