Love Keeps Going

Love Keeps Going is a Taiwanese Romantic Comedy that aired in June 2011 on CTV. After overhearing her divorcing parents that neither wanted her in the settlement, Zha Mei Le resolves to become a useful and hardworking person. To this end she feverishly earned all sorts of certificates, among them accounting, insurance, motorcycle repair, computer science, Emergency Medical Technician and even etiquette. Her boyfriend is Han Yi Feng; they met when his car stalled on the road, and she repaired it. He is impressed with her abilities but generally takes her for granted. Mei Le helps achieve what she thinks is Yi Feng's dream of opening and running a bakery.
