Moonlight Episode 33 Recap
> Moonlight Recap
Chu Li returned home after a busy day. Zhou Chuan quickly called her. Zhou Chuan felt guilty for implicating Zhou Guxuan. Chu Li complained to him about Lao Miao connecting with Xin Dun Publishing. The two flirted back and forth. Zhou Chuan's mother saw this but didn't disturb them, hurrying off to tell Zhou Guxuan that Zhou Chuan had a girlfriend. However, Zhou Guxuan clearly felt no one would be interested in Zhou Chuan.
Jiang Yucheng and Gu Baizhi were busy all night. Gu Baizhi fell asleep slumped on the table. Jiang Yucheng carefully draped a jacket over her. He Ma took the lead in agreeing to come, but it was unclear how many other authors would follow. Yu Yao didn't blame Du Niaoniao for hiding things, but said there wouldn't be a next time for this matter. Teacher He Ma brought several authors to Yuanyue Publishing House.
Although he didn't have a good impression of Zhou Chuan, when the authors had just run into trouble, Yuanyue Publishing House distanced itself, so everyone naturally felt uneasy. Editor-in-Chief Xia returned, supported by Chu Li. He came today not to force everyone to stay, but to say that the editorial department never thought of giving up on Zhou Chuan and would not abandon these old authors.
The authors respected Editor-in-Chief Xia very much and signed the new contracts prepared by Yuanyue Publishing House one after another after reviewing them. With the authors changing their minds, Editor-in-Chief Xia told Director Liang to reflect seriously, hoping this incident would make him understand the relationship between authors and Yuanyue Publishing House. Zhou Chuan had gone back to his hometown. Editor-in-Chief Xia felt that it was fine for young people to experience more challenges.
He contacted Shu Hua to help Zhou Chuan with an interview for clarification and told Chu Li to quickly help Zhou Chuan find evidence. When Lao Miao arrived at Xin Dun Publishing ready to start work, President Luo received news that those authors weren't coming and immediately chased Lao Miao away. Jiang Yucheng worried that the evidence Zhou Chuan sent wouldn't be believed, so he issued a statement himself to represent his stance.
Gu Baizhi then forwarded it, after all, Zhou Chuan was her author too. Jiang Yucheng said he wanted to drink, and Gu Baizhi quickly stopped him. Jiang Yucheng sighed, sensing some warmth in her now caring about him. Zhou Chuan saw the statement posted by Jiang Yucheng and thanked him. They couldn't find Zhou Chuan's high school test papers from three years ago anywhere.
Zhou Guxuan's reminder made Zhou Chuan remember that the second mock exam paper mentioned 'Luohe Shen Shu', but it had been torn off the bulletin board. President Luo was very angry because Gu Baizhi publicly supported Jiang Yucheng, but publicly supporting authors had also led to signing several new authors, so Gu Baizhi didn't pay attention to him. Chu Li rushed over immediately after resolving the matters at Yuanyue Publishing House, giving Zhou Chuan a big surprise.
Zhou Chuan contacted Li Xuemei, his high school deskmate, and perhaps there would be news in the next few days. Zhou Chuan wanted to take Chu Li home. Chu Li worried that she was looking disheveled now and should prepare a bit. Zhou Chuan teased that even an ugly daughter-in-law had to meet her in-laws. Zhou Chuan took Chu Li home, stating that she was his editor and also his girlfriend. Zhou Chuan's mother and Zhou Guxuan were very happy.
Zhou Guxuan praised Chu Li for doing a great job with 'Luohe Shen Shu', saying it was on a different level from the taste of books Zhou Chuan wrote before. Zhou Chuan and Zhou Guxuan started bickering again. Under the table, Chu Li quickly kicked Zhou Chuan's leg. Zhou Chuan's mother repeatedly insisted Chu Li stay over.
Chu Li curiously went to look at Zhou Chuan's room and ended up being pressed down on the bed and kissed by Zhou Chuan. Chu Li worried about being seen by his parents and quickly jumped up to return to her room. Zhou Chuan's mother and Zhou Guxuan both liked Chu Li very much. They thought about cutting fruit to bring to them but decided not to disturb them, remembering they hadn't seen each other for a while.
Zhou Chuan couldn't contact Li Xuemei, as if she had vanished from the face of the earth. Zhou Chuan then contacted Mo Na, who had a good relationship with her, to meet. Unexpectedly, this Mo Na was Song Xi's assistant, Na Na. Li Xuemei arranged to meet Zhou Chuan at school. When they went to school, both Zhou Chuan and Chu Li felt it was strange. Unexpectedly, Li Xuemei was Song Xi.
The former Li Xuemei was very fat and lacked confidence, and Zhou Chuan had helped her before. Song Xi said she could give Zhou Chuan that test paper but wanted to talk to him alone. Chu Li quickly went to wait for him in the corridor. Song Xi asked Zhou Chuan if he still remembered their first meeting. At that time, Li Xuemei was being bullied by others, and it was Zhou Chuan who stood up and helped her.
From then on, Zhou Chuan became Li Xuemei's light; she wanted to understand everything about him. Zhou Chuan had always treated Li Xuemei as a junior schoolmate, and he only accepted the candy she gave him because he wanted to help her. At that time, Song Xi knew she was unworthy of Zhou Chuan, so she could only help him silently. But this time, Zhou Chuan did not accept Song Xi's candy.
Later, one time, Song Xi accidentally overheard Zhou Chuan talking with a friend. Zhou Chuan actually didn't pay attention to those pointing fingers, but Song Xi reflexively thought Zhou Chuan cared. To become beautiful, Song Xi had been working hard. Zhou Chuan advised Song Xi not to live in Li Xuemei's past anymore, saying her past shouldn't include him.
When Zhou Chuan came out of the classroom, Song Xi, filled with jealousy, picked up a blackboard eraser and threw it at Chu Li. Fortunately, Zhou Chuan blocked it. Zhou Chuan shielded Chu Li in front of him, looking at Song Xi with unfamiliar disgust. The current Song Xi did whatever it took to achieve her goals, what difference was there between her and the people who used to bully her?
Zhou Chuan pulled Chu Li away and explained the course of events to her. Chu Li understood that Song Xi's inferiority complex had deeply rooted itself, even though she was now a widely acclaimed superstar, she was still the same Li Xuemei from before. Zhou Chuan had already given the materials provided by Jiang Yucheng to the relevant agencies and hoped Chu Li would believe him.
After the Lao Miao incident, Editor-in-Chief Xia hoped everyone could think clearly about some things and also wanted to clear Zhou Chuan's name. Chu Li and Zhou Chuan were returning to Shanghai. Zhou Guxuan and Zhou Chuan's mother came to see them off. Zhou Guxuan told Zhou Chuan that no matter what the outcome was, he should stick to his creative principles, and eventually, he would be able to speak through his work.
