Never Too Late

When she was young, Jian Xi Le (Xiao Yu) harbored an intense crush on Ding Ran (Cao En Qi). For ten years she loved him but nothing significant ever happened between them. As is often the case in life, time and circumstances eventually caused them to drift further apart, until nothing was left between them but fond memories of a time long past. Now an adult, Xi Le has moved on in both life and love. Working as an underwear designer, Xi Le is content with the way her life has gone thus far. But when a routine checkup at the doctor’s office brings Ding Ran back into her life in the most embarrassing way possible, Xi Le’s happy life takes an unexpected turn. As if having your childhood crush perform a very thorough medical checkup wasn’t embarrassing enough, Xi Le is soon dealt an even more unexpected blow when her mother announces that she plans on getting remarried. While Xi Le has no problems with her mother marrying, she’s shocked to learn that her future step-father is none other than Ding Ran’s father.  Suddenly thrown back together in the most unexpected and complicated way possible, Xi Le and Ding Ran quickly become a part of each other’s lives. But the more they spend time together, the more it becomes apparent they have both been suppressing some long-held feelings for each other. Will the sparks of their long-lost love eventually ignite a passionate flame or will the complications of their family relationship force them apart forever? A delightful romantic romp, “Never Too Late” is a 2022 Chinese romantic comedy drama directed by Zeng Qing Jie.
