> Moonlight Recap
Chu's father asked Zhou Chuan who usually did the housework, and Zhou Chuan said they would do it together. Chu's father said that Chu Li had been spoiled by them since she was a child, which was why she had that fearless, stubborn temper. The neighbors said she was more righteous than the police dogs at the police station, so Chu's father hoped Zhou Chuan could protect her; in the past, it was always him protecting Chu Li.
The two shook hands solemnly, and Chu Li found the scene a bit funny. After Chu Li and Zhou Chuan saw off Chu's father and mother, Zhou Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, saying the torture was finally over. On the day Yu Yao resigned, President Luo didn't forget to come over and speak sarcastically.
Yu Yao's assistant Xiao Tang and Gu Yunfei also planned to leave Xindun with Yu Yao, and other authors were also preparing to leave because of President Luo's outrageous actions. Director Liang kept urging Chu Li to secure Zhou Chuan's new book, saying she should pay attention to her methods and attitude had changed. Chu Li pretended not to understand. President Yang came to ask about Zhou Chuan's new book, and Director Liang quickly said he would go personally.
The Huazhi Award ceremony was tomorrow night, and Chu Li urged Zhou Chuan to hurry up and get ready. Unexpectedly, Zhou Chuan was watching Zhou Guxuan's award acceptance video. Chu Li saw through that Zhou Chuan was very much looking forward to it in his heart but was being stubborn with his words. Director Liang suddenly arrived, and Zhou Chuan and Chu Li awkwardly received him.
Director Liang got straight to the point and presented the contract for As Dream Illuminates startle like a Swan. Chu Li and Zhou Chuan played along, leaving Director Liang completely helpless. After Director Liang left, Chu Li was still savoring the memory of him being deflated just now. At the Huazhi Award ceremony, Chu Li and Zhou Chuan attended together. Zhou Chuan appeared calm on the surface but was very nervous inside. Jiang Yucheng saw through him at a glance.
Their mutual teasing was again disliked by Chu Li and Gu Baizhi. Zhou Chuan's seat was in the front, so Zhou Chuan entrusted Chu Li to Jiang Yucheng and Gu Baizhi. The Huazhi Award ceremony began, and the internet was abuzz discussing whether Zhou Chuan could win the Huazhi Award; the discussion was very high. Chu Li kept secretly hoping that Zhou Chuan would win the award and didn't forget to send Zhou Chuan messages to comfort him.
The final Huazhi Award winner was, without surprise, Zhou Chuan's book "Luo River Divine Book". Editor-in-Chief Xia was extremely happy watching the live broadcast, sighing that he could retire with peace of mind. The presenter was Zhou Guxuan, and Zhou Chuan seemed a bit flustered seeing him. Zhou's mother also came to the audience and sat with Chu Li, Jiang Yucheng, and Gu Baizhi. Zhou Guxuan pushed back all his subsequent commitments to come to the award ceremony.
At the moment he personally handed the trophy to Zhou Chuan, he was actually very proud in his heart. Zhou Guxuan said that Zhou Chuan had walked the path of literary creation firmly, step by step, and he, as a father, should reflect on himself. Recalling Zhou Chuan's debut work, it was actually quite good. Everyone was very emotional seeing that Zhou Chuan and Zhou Guxuan could finally talk properly.
Gu Baizhi secretly told Jiang Yucheng that she would definitely be able to get him onto that stage as well, and she would stand side by side with him, holding the Best Editor award.
Zhou Chuan hoped that more authors could be seen by everyone, so he decided to use all the royalties from As Dream Illuminates startle like a Swan to establish a fund and hold a literary competition for children in impoverished mountainous areas so that these children could also be seen. As soon as Zhou Chuan stepped off the stage, he ran to Chu Li's seat and kissed her.
The big screen on the stage also cut to the two of them. Jiang Yucheng sincerely congratulated Zhou Chuan. Zhou Chuan was busy socializing, and Chu Li took a photo and sent it to Director Liang. Chu Li and Zhou's mother both left first, letting Zhou Guxuan and Zhou Chuan have a good talk. Zhou Guxuan praised him for doing a great job with the fund.
For so many years, they as father and son had never had a proper conversation. Actually, when Zhou Chuan was sixteen, he handed Zhou Guxuan the first manuscript he wrote, and all he wanted was to hear a simple "Actually, what you wrote isn't bad." He had waited thirteen years for this sentence, and he finally heard it today. Zhou Guxuan smiled and said that when they had time, he wanted to meet Chu Li's parents.
They also wanted to finalize this matter as soon as possible. Zhou Chuan watched Zhou Guxuan leave, and the things he hadn't wanted to touch in his heart were finally healed. Chu Li ran into Zhou Chuan's room to take photos with the trophy and even wanted to borrow the trophy to sleep with for a night, since Zhou Chuan's was hers after all.
Zhou Chuan stared at Chu Li, saying the trophy alone wasn't enough; did she want the award winner? The next morning, Zhou Chuan woke up and Chu Li next to him had already gotten up. Hearing the noisy sound of Chu Li and Er Gou playing in the sun, Zhou Chuan immediately called Jiang Yucheng and told him he wanted to get married.
Jiang Yucheng glanced at Gu Baizhi petting the cat on the sofa and replied, he also wanted to get married. Zhou Chuan's commercial value soared after winning the Huazhi Award, and Chu Li decided it was time to reel in the net. Director Liang was waiting at the door early in the morning to bring Chu Li breakfast. Chu Li innocently said that Zhou Chuan had set a guaranteed print run of 500,000 copies.
Director Liang thought about it and agreed through gritted teeth. Chu Li pretended to make a phone call and then turned around and proposed another condition to Director Liang, saying that all future online and offline promotions must be approved by Zhou Chuan and written into the contract. Director Liang still agreed with a smile.
