Apparently, this is a modern romance between a young couple whose love evolved from their shared love of books!
Chu li seems to be a very cheerful girl just like Esther yu and she has come to Shanghai to chase her dream of becoming an editor at yuan yue publishing house
She receives a message from her internet best friend saying “lets chat stinky monkey” she smiles and replies “you finally appear stinky fox”
and he is also going to yuan yue house and Miao director is coveting him to sign a book with him and talks about his father.
While chu li stops the directors and asks them to interview her. sometime later she is pushed out saying the interview was over and she is not chosen .
She still doesn’t give up and requests them to ask any questions but still is rejected as her major was finance.so she leaves her note with her book reviews with them and leaves
She starts exploring the place and wants to peek and sees Zhou Chuan leave with a rage
Looks like they both don’t know each other and they don’t get to see each others faces too
Then as fate leads them to the same bookstore looking for the same book but he cheats her and gets the book lol
They text each other the same situation they had but still don’t figure it out
Later chu li gets selected because she backs them up in front of gu bai zhi their rival. This Miao directer seems to be. Very biased .
But chu li’s mom doesn’t support her emotionally or financially
She still positively unpacks in her rented house and shares the news with stinky fox first
They both text each other happily
Next day, They both meet at corner bookstore again and he is mistaken as Zhou Chuan’s fan and praises him just to get the book from yesterday
jiang yu Cheng is the bookstore’s owner and Zhou Chuan’s bro.and chu li is his fan
At yuan yue another intern called Xiao niao is favoured by Miao director and she has high connections and she tries befriending chu li.
But chu li and mr.xia the editor in chief become close
Chu li is assigned to sign Zhou chuan they meet at the corner bookstore without knowing each other’s identities and fight again about the placements of books lol
Zhou chuan is super childish and cute but looks like he is not in good connection with his dad
Later chu li finds and goes to Zhou Chuan’s house and introduces herself
He is confused.
Episode 2-6
Im in love with this cp they are so cute
They keep fighting with each other even though they care about each other .
Zhou chuan keeps rejecting to sign with yuan yue
Looks like Jiang yu Cheng and gu bai zhi were lovers before and broke up later
Chu li is stuck in the middle of both Zhou chuan and the director as nobody helps her
She explores Zhou chuan Weibo and talks about it to stinky fox without knowing both are same person
After Zhou chuan removes his mask she starts to coax him and tries many ways to get him sign the contract but still doesn’t succeed
She leaves her name card with him .
Jiang yu Cheng and bai chi don’t seem to be going well . He wants to draw a line between them but she still wants the copyright of his book
Chu li says everything to stinky fox and he figures out that stinky monkey is chu li !!!
He goes to Jiang yu Cheng tells him the situation that he feels bad of treating her that way as she is stinky monkey and tries to get him tell him to sign the contract. lol
The next day just when they were about to sign the contract his seal is lost 🙁
but Miao director discourages chu li saying that means he rejected her. Thank goodness Ah Xiang the editor supports him and gives hope to chu li
I want to say this song by Esther yu is really nice
Xiao niao asks chu li to make the ppt for her but chu li refuses first,
but later since Zhou chuan called her she asked help from Xiao niao she had to do the ppt
Now Zhou chuan is jealous of Jiang yu Cheng and calls chu li for a broken washer but he just didn’t plug it In lol
He asks her with fox’s identity then he says he won’t call her tomorrow
zhou chuan he has an advantage 😉
Meanwhile Jiang yu Cheng and gu bai zhi are quarrelling over the contract so he refuses yuan yue’s proposal
Now Miao director is backed up by higher ups and he wants to handle Zhou Chuan’s case from chu li
Chu li and Zhou chuan are developing more chemistry she takes care of him as he’s sick
Zhou chuan is super touched by this .
Now it’s the critical moment when only one out of chu li and Xiao niao is selected .
Zhou chuan makes an entrance directly and gives the signed contract
He texts her as fox making her say Zhou chuan is a good person
I guess he is trying to make her fall in love with both sides of him. Hehe
Zhou chuan and his father are in a bad relationship because his dad is an author too
but he didn’t support his works so Zhou chuan treats him sa rival
Miao director still doesn’t give up and asks Xiao niao to be in charge of Zhou Chuan’s editing work
Chu li is very depressed later the fox and monkey talk with each other.
He talks with a cup on his mouth lol
She says all the troubles to him(fox) who asks her to talk with Zhou chuan but she refuses
the next day Miao director posts on his Weibo that Zhou chuan wanted to talk with him
He said he only wants chu li to handle his affairs and also disses Miao and leaves. Awww
Chu li says it to fox once she knows he praises himself omg
Now she works really hard to to make his book the best !
Chu li finds many faults like removing pages and asks him to do it
he doesn’t agree with it first but after she keeps pestering her he gave up lol
He removed monkey as a friend in we chat as fox and chu li is sad
When she meets Jiang yu Cheng and says she trusts he will make a comeback without knowing it was him
Zhou chuan again goes to Jiang yu Cheng to get him persuade himself to add monkey back in his we chat lol
Later she takes up Jiang yu Cheng’s novel and seems like he cheated her
Zhou chuan is super jealous about this and now chu li must sign a contract of his new book for this
she visits the hotel and acts as Zhou chuan’s wife to get it omg cute
She and gu bai chi fight for it but he choses yuan yue for the contract 🙂
Later in the night Zhou chuan lends her his room and
she goes to the hot shower spring later where he is also there oooooh
She imagines a kissing scene and becomes all red
When she gets up Zhou chuan looks at her waist and becomes embarrassed haha these two are too cute
Chu li wants to use cocoon as an artist for the new book luo he but
Zhou chuan doesn’t agree he is fine with anyone except for her
Seems like cocoon has some past with fox .
Episode 7 & 8
They both quarrel about cocoon this time it look serious
And Chu li is stuck with another problem because she hasn’t checked before signing a contract
Now she is fined and the landlady also makes problems she is broke af
but when she hears he is in a hospital she rushes over in a cab worth lots of money and rushes over aahhh sweet !!
But seems like it was er go(his dog) in the hospital and
she sadfishes about her situation to him and he agrees to use cocoon as his editor.
Zhou Chuan and his father quarrel about going to a writers association
again as he doesn’t want a blind date
Jiang yu cheng seems to have turned into a new person even drinking new coffee
Zhou Chuan sees her situation and tells her to stay with him and
she agrees without hesitation haha this means she trusts him a lot
He personally goes and choses things for her this is too cute
At this time Chu li sets a meal for Zhou Chuan and cocoon while negotiating by mistake lol.
When Chu li came to move in he gives her a 30 rule contract to follow like
don’t threaten with naked pictures and all. Lol
And he couldn’t help himself to say
“tonight’s moon is very beautiful” this means a way of saying I like you . Chu li asks about this to fox
Now it looks like Jiang yu cheng might chase Chu li uh-oh I’m worried
Later they both go to visit cocoon but come into an argument about little Zhou Chuan
who was fox chu gets super angry about this and Zhou Chuan enjoys from both sides
Later they take yu editors little son to eat when
they explain they are not husband and wife lol but later she is jealous of Zhou Chuan and cocoon
Cocoon and gu Bai Zhi are talking and she gives cocoon extra money
Chu li needs to put all her effort but cocoon still does not give the proper cover
I am now wondering if gu Bai Zhi is second lead or rival
Also back then it was something about copying Jiang yu Cheng’s script and gave it to yun fei.
It might be a misunderstanding too .looks like
she betrayed his trust for her as an editor and as a girlfriend
They have a little more interactions when drunk Jiang yu cheng is in their home.
Later cocoon makes more problems but they solve it as Zhou Chuan always has chu li’s back 🙂
but Chu li is also integgent and she becomes strong and fights back at cocoon using the contract
This time there is no improvement in father son relationship 🙁
Chu li and Zhou Chuan seem to have lots of improvement tho,
hehe he is super worried about her for holding the pipe
Episode 9 & 10
Chu li is facing troubles from cocoon and Zhou Chuan now.
but she resolves cocoon’s troubles by using the calligraphy given by Zhou Chuan’s father and her ideas.
She even threatens to fires cocoon and makes ah Xiang design the cover
But Zhou Chuan locks himself up in his room all day snd posts nothing eats nothing worrying his fans and Chu li.
She finds a genius way to burn something and forces him to open the door lol.
and threatens to use er go to destroy the house
She sits near sunlight and he is seduced by it.
He also posts it on Weibo they take a walk when he opens up to her how his dad discouraged him to not write.
The brother now is courting Gu Bai Zhi and keeps following her.
She visits a grandma seems like she treats her as her own mother and she asks her to bring Jiang yu cheng together next time.
Chu li gets 2 movie tickets to watch with any author from yuan yue house.
Yu editor tells this to Zhou Chuan and asks him to accept it if she invites him.
He buys new suits and tries talking her into asking for the movie he even competes with Jiang yu cheng.
Im not sure if Jiang yu cheng is acting to get these 2 together or if he actually likes Chu li
And im also sure Jiang yu cheng will find out about them living together very soon
jiang yu Cheng still gets many memories of gu Bai Zhi it was pure and innocent
but I hope he won’t use Chu li as a replacement or something
Gu Bai Zhi gets drunk and calls jiang yu cheng he gets worried and comes to her location but the brother is already there making him go back 🙁
I really want them to be together again
The next morning she comes to him and asks him to go and visit the granny with her
Chu li is scared weather Zhou Chuan would become a stranger as the book is gonna be published.
she also has a lot of work to do as the amount of copies is too high.
Miao director even challenges his title if Chu li reaches the number. She uses jiang yu cheng and does the publicity
They have more romantic moments as he asks her to wear slippers as weather changes.
The book gets 45,000 copies the first day itself they are super happy and go to xinghe road which means couples who cross it will stay together forever.
He catches her and uses it to hold hands and smiles . While they both walk together cocoon takes a picture and sends it to Liang director and Miao 🙁
Yu editor seems to be the shipper for this cp awww
When she leaves to home a man makes trouble and Zhou Chuan saves her and even carries her home as she hurt her leg and she sleeps on him
At home he applies leave for her tommorow and dresses her wound. BRO that is such a small wound this is too much for limping smh
Episode 11 & 12
Chu li is scolded for the picture about her and Zhou Chuan when he asks her about it to her she says she doesnt mind. Zhou Chuan posts defending her on Weibo.now everyone supports this book
And yu editor had the same kind of experience of romance with the author she first signed but now they have divorced I almost cried
Chu li seems to be falling in love with Zhou Chuan but denies it
Jiang yu Cheng and gu Bai Zhi are also progressing really well due to the granny.
While Zhou Chuan and Chu li are cooking he tells her that she shouldn’t move out and says the same as mr. fox she also doesn’t want to leave him. Awww
The granny mistook yun fei as jiang yu Cheng and told him to protect her as her parents died when she was young and she leaves Bai Zhi to him
Jiang yu Cheng keeps thinking about it and Chu li tells him that the past makes him the one he is now
At home Chu li and Zhou Chuan watch live online pre sales and it is 13,527 sales in one minute OMG! And both of them hug each other with joy
Chu li was about to ask if she could be the one who supports him always when the bell rings lol she is pissed off. It is jiang yu cheng
They both fight on whether she should hide or be mistaken as his wife later she hides in his wardobe but jiang yu cheng still hasn’t left and he doesn’t even plan on going home and plans on sleeping on Zhou Chuan’s bed lol 🙂
And they end up sleeping together hehee and Zhou Chuan thinks she is er go lol this scene was so funny I fell in the ground laughing. But in the end they were caught by jiang yu cheng
Now they are being questioned if they are dating but they explain everything to him. Then suddenly jiang yu cheng confesses to Chu li. Loll they both make Zhou Chuan jealous together
Zhou Chuan disguises himself and listens to what Chu li and jiang yu cheng talk seems like he is serious about it AHHHH my cp with Bai Zhi?? Bai Zhi regrets losing him now
Zhou Chuan is jealous I think this will make them both close to each other
At the book store sun hang comes to visit Miao director but he sends her away
🙁 saying she is not suitable… the first author yu editor had was this sun hang omg there was a past between them what is going on???
Yun fei doesn’t want to be jiang yu Cheng’s shadow and gu Bai Zhi supports him unwantedly
When mr. fox asks monkey if she likes jiang yu cheng she sends yes by mistake uh-oh later Zhou Chuan is angry with him but seems like Chu li likes mr. fox omg!!!
Btw the sales of Leo he god stops right at 35,900 sales mr. via wants to apply it for a huazhi prize but Zhou Chuan stubbornly refuses but mr. via needs to get this prize as this is his last chance to prove.
Gu Bai Zhi asks jiang yu cheng to attend a book exchange program. Yu Yao went to su Cheng’s house but didn’t have the guts to talk to her looks like she is her soft spot.
And Miao and director Liang want to use this against her but suprisingly Miao refuses to do so is he also connected with the past or maybe he is the ex husband of yu Yao and those 2 fought for him or something or does he like yu Yao ??????
While this is happening Chu li acts as a spoilt child in front of Zhou Chuan she got this idea from Xiao niao loll but she fails as her acting is so bad hahaaa
Episode 13
Now Chu li finally sees the message she sent to fox and completes it saying its not jiang yu cheng. Now Zhou Chuan is happy
Chu li overhears his convo with his dad and uses this as her advantageeven uses tear drops to cry lol he even believed it I guess he will agree as usual

Yay jiang yu cheng came to the book exchange and gu Bai Zhi tells him that she is leaving to France and she has something to tell him after she returns is she gonna confess??!
When people talk bad about gu Bai Zhi both yun fei and jiang yu cheng took revenge for her. I like this !! When they both drink together yun fei says he likes her very much. nooooooo … now he put all his memories of her in a box and put it away 🙁
Zhou Chuan and Chu li don’t look like they are gonna make up in this lifetime
Jiang yu cheng uses this time to get over gu Bai Zhi using Chu li he even took her to see the sunset
Zhou Chuan cares a lot about her. He even covered her with a blanket and thinks about a kissing scene. And also explains he thinks of her more than what she thinks and she forgives him.
There are problems with suo heng but yu Yao doesn’t want to give up on her yet
Yu Yao met her son and husband I think they didn’t divorce but have just been apart for a very long time btw his mom’s birthday is coming
Chu li thinks his face is very tender while texting monkey but misunderstands it is gu Bai Zhi and is jealous
