Tang Xin, a popular online novelist with millions of fans, secretly loves her boss, Tang Yu, a renowned producer at Shiguang Film Industry. After four years of unspoken feelings, Tang Yu asks her to help pursue his best friend Ming Zhu. But when Ming Zhu shows interest in someone else, Tang Yu is heartbroken. Tang Xin tries to comfort him with cake, but he dismisses her.

Tang Xin was caught off guard when Tang Yu rejected her project proposal and distanced himself from their past alliance. Feeling deflated, she visited her best friend You Huan's fashion studio, where she ran into Tang Yu's sister, Tang Dingding. Impressed by her sales pitch, they shared a moment of camaraderie.

After Gao Heng revealed her plan to ride in Tang Yu's new car, Tang Xin eagerly claimed the passenger seat, and he surprisingly let her in. However, her excitement dimmed when he praised her project report but rejected her proposal for 'Do a Dream for You', citing a need for more experienced screenwriters. Disheartened, she applied for an assistant screenwriter role in 'Bai Lu Wei Shuang'.

Lu Zhi Xing approached Tang Xin, offering to buy the rights to her novel, and she happily declined Shiguang's contract renewal. The two bonded over their shared university experience, but this was overheard by Ho Chendong and Tang Dingding. Meanwhile, Shiguang's Manager Du sought to renew Tang Xin's contract, only to be stunned when he learned she was the celebrated novelist.
