If you want to talk me into
using Cocoon's service,

I suggest you to hang up now.

Let's not waste each other's time.

[Wait, listen to me, sir.]

[During the regular meeting,
Mr Xia kept saying]

that we must find Book of Luo He God

an illustrator
who is good at mediaeval art

and who is as reputable as you.

Except for Cocoon, anyone will do.

But there are only three illustrators
who meet these criteria.

Yes.

[One of them is a game concept artist]

[who only accepts reservations
six months in advance.]

There's not enough time for sure.

Another one is a movie poster artist.

There's no way our
publishing house can afford it.

Cocoon is our last option.

There's no room for negotiation.

Sir, don't be mad.

Wait.

Excuse me, Mr Zhou Chuan.

Give me a minute.

What? I can't wait for you.

Chu Li, Xiao Niao is on
a sick leave this afternoon.

But she called and said that
she forgot to sign an invoice.

She wants you to do so on her behalf.

Do you know the character
and reputation of Cocoon?

I learned that, when she's still a nobody,

a talented writer
wrote for her illustrations.

That's how she became famous.

But when she became well-known,

she turned against that writer
and denied their collaboration.

Why would you work with
this kind of person?

This is the merchandise figure for Hua Li.

Hand it to the Marketing Department now.

She said she's gone through it.

And Miao has signed it.

You just have to sign it on her behalf.

Forget it. Where's my pen?

[Person In Charge: Miao Qing Ping]
[Handler: Chu Li]

If Book of Luo He God becomes
a flop because of Cocoon,

it will be merely
a failure in your career.

You can pull yourself up.

And go on selling Jiang Yu Cheng's
The Disappearing Amusement Park.

What about me?

Who should I go to?

Thanks.

Hello, sir. Are you still there?

[Let's continue.]

[We advise you to hire
Madam Cocoon as your illustrator.]

[Because our publishing house
finds her the best option.]

Weren't you listening to me?

There's an urgent invoice
that needed my signature.

Didn't I ask you to give me a minute?

Where were we when you went away?

Didn't I ask you to wait for me?

What have I done to make him mad again?

♫ They say strange things
and keep rapport ♫

It's eleven o'clock.
Why is the light still on?

♫ Guileless adults are reduced to a joke ♫

♫ Unceasingly, here to stay ♫

♫ No dancing on the roof, but rain ♫

♫ The loneliness has found
a place and moved out ♫

♫ Guests sillier than me
argue and exaggerate ♫

♫ The moon is
outrageously beautiful tonight ♫

♫ Lend me the light on your face ♫

♫ I've been giddy from drifting

of getting submitted to gentleness ♫

♫ I want to be led by you,
albeit a meager freedom ♫

Mr Jiang, go for it!

has finally seen to ♫

♫ The alien's call for help ♫

Sis Xian Xian, what are you looking for?

The coupons.

The mall beside is
having a promotion today.

A penny saved is a penny earned.

Don't tell others that I was here.

Why are you afraid of being found out?

You just came to work.
And now you're leaving?

The obscure Sis Xian Yu.

Deputy Editor Miao.

Here's the manuscript for
the next instalment

of The Disappearing Amusement Park.

I already confirmed it
with Mr Jiang yesterday.

Well, just place it here.

All of you, get over here.
We need to talk.

What's the matter?

"What's the matter?"

Du Niao Niao, tell us what happened.

There's some problem with
the merchandise figure for Hua Li.

Is it "some" problem?

Our department

decided on four thousand
metal bookmarks as Hua Li merchandise.

Why did you submit an invoice
of twelve thousand copies?

The first print run for this book is
twelve thousand copies only.

Could the Marketing Department
have made a mistake?

And you.

Both of your signatures are on it.
Take a look by yourself.

There are eight thousand extra copies.

What should we do about the cost of them?

Are we going to pay it with
your salary? Or yours?

How did you verify it?

I'm sorry, Chief Editor Yu.

I was on a half-day leave.

Chu Li is not to blame for it.
Please don't blame her.

I was on the phone with Mr Zhou Chuan.

And I put him on hold.

I saw Deputy Editor Miao's
signature on it.

That's why I didn't think twice.

What are you saying?

Wait.

You didn't do your work well.

Why are you blaming me for it?

You're being unprofessional. Got it?

How many times have I reminded you
about the merchandise figure?

It can't be more than
one third of the first print run.

Do you have to teach you that?

Do you want me to feed you?

What's wrong with you?

Enough, cut it out.

You guys are passing the buck.

Is it what you do when problems arise?

Everyone in the second section
is responsible for it.

Every one of us

will be given a pay cut as punishment.

A fine?

Is there any problem?

Miao and I will each pay
five thousand yuan.

One thousand yuan from each newbie.

Sis Xian Yu will pay three thousand yuan.

Three...

I'll give you a pay cut for this.

If you ever make the same mistake again,

it will be more than a salary cut.

Do you hear me?

Chief Editor Yu.

Can I pay in instalments?

My monthly salary is 3,800 yuan.

Minus 1,000, there're 2,800 left.

The rent is 4,500 yuan for three months.

Minus the money for
transportation and food...

-500?!

My God!

I've been working so hard
for the past month.

And I still end up owing
the society 500 yuan.

Madam Landlord, why are you here?

Girl.

What's happened to this fridge?
It won't stay closed.

It's always been like this.

When you first moved in here,

I bought all these new stuff, you know.

You'd end up breaking
all these good stuffs.

Forget about it. You're a girl after all.

I'll take the high road.

Madam.

What are you actually here for?

Here's the thing.

My son is getting married soon.

I want to make this room
his wedding chamber.

That's why I came to ask you

if you can move out this month.

Move out?

Where to?

But if you have no place to live,

you can stay here for
another month or two.

It's negotiable.

Sure, how do we settle it?

Pay extra 500 yuan
for the next month's rent,

and I'll let you stay for another month.

Five hundred?!

You want to charge me extra
500 yuan for this awful room?

What kind of attitude is this?

I'm not attending to my son's wedding.

Because I care about your well-being.

If you don't want to stay here,
just move out.

I'll ask someone to clean this room up.

But if you refuse to move out,

I won't return you
the deposit for this month.

You...

I thought of living on
water for this month.

I guess the air is my only option now.

My darling daughter.

Hi, Dad.

It's been some time since your called us.

Our chestnuts are on the market now.

Your mum ordered me

to send you ten catties of chestnuts.

I didn't order you to do so.

[Suit yourself and post them to her.]

I'm watching the telly.

Why are you talking
on the phone here? Get out.

Daughter.

You called at the right time.

I've spend a lot time counselling
and educating your mum.

And now she's more
accepting of your action.

What a good new that is.

[But here's a bad news.]

Your mum took away
all of my little coffers.

She's confiscated them.

She even made me write
a 3,000-word self-critique.

[Aren't I living a hard life?]

It's okay, Dad.

I'll make a lot of money,

and give it all to you.

You can save it as your secret nest egg.

You're really a good girl.

You're doing quite well, aren't you?

Are you in some trouble?

Not at all. I'm doing pretty well.

I'm not in any trouble.

It's just that I've been away
from home for long.

And I've missed you.

I miss you, too.

Are you really okay?

I'm all right. Don't worry.

Also,

tell Her Highness

that I'll definitely work hard.

Sure.

I'm hanging up then.

Rest well. Bye-bye.

Our daughter

is probably in some trouble.

Did she ask you for money?

No.

We know her well.

She's probably in a trouble.

Hurry up and give me the money!

I'll wire her some money!

Why are you shouting?

I've said not to give her money.

What are you doing?

Our child is all alone and
far away from home.

Her family isn't there.

And she doesn't know anyone there.

You're her mother after all.

How can you be so stone-hearted?

What do you mean?

Why are you shouting?

Are you the only one who cares about her?

Can you think about it?

You can't just wire her money
whenever she's in some trouble.

Have you ever thought about it?

If you keep doing so,

when will she come home?

If she still cares about us
and this family,

she will come home eventually.

If she decides not to come home,

I'll accept it.

She can strive to make
a name for herself, then.

Yes.

You're right.

Why don't you give me some money first?

I'll wire it to her.

[Rental Details]

[Have you found an illustrator
for Book of Luo Shen God?]

[Yu Tao]

[I'm still looking for one.]

[I'll contact Mr Zhou Chuan immediately.]

Hello.

Hello, Mr Zhou Chuan.

We'll talk about the illustrator tomorrow.
I'm busy now.

Mr Zhou Chuan, we can wait no more.

Chief Editor Yu made it clear

that the Book of Luo Shen God must
be displayed in this year's book fair.

And we're one week behind schedule.

We must decide on the illustrator today.

Please, sir.

Stand in our editors' shoes.

I'm doing all this for
the publication of your book.

Why are you all behaving like this?

Can't you put some effort into it?

Hello!

Are you done talking?

I'm at hospital.

You can talk to me face-to-face.

Hospital?

Why are you at the hospital?

Which hospital?

I'll be right there.

Sir.

I want to go to No. 1412
of South Lingyan Road.

About how much does it cost?

It's far from here.
It's between 80 to 100 yuan.

-Drive faster, thank you.
-Sure.

Go.

Hello. I'm sorry, Mr Jiang.

I'm afraid we can't meet to
talk about the manuscript today.

Why do you sound so tired?

You didn't sleep well?

All right, I'll leave you to it.

We can meet next time.

Sure. Thank you, Mr Jiang.

Sir, please go faster.

Hi.

Hi.

May I know if I can buy the scented
candles in the shop window?

I'm sorry.

The candles are the free gifts
with purchase of high heels.

It's on me.

No need.

Why did you give Chu Li the bookmark?

Are you free?

Mr Zhou Chuan.

Is Er Gou all right?

Do you care about it so much?

You're wearing the shoes
on the wrong feet.

♫ I want to hide like a kid
who made mistakes ♫

I thought something happened to you.

That's why I rushed here.

♫ My heart skipped a beat ♫

I didn't realise you sent me
an address to an animal Hospital.

Er Gou got into a fight
with a German Shepherd.

♫ When you look at me
everything seems so cute ♫

But it's all right.

It's still alive.

♫ I am the only one feeling strange ♫

Then did it win the fight?

I was just asking,
since it's a fight between two dogs.

♫ I have got a million whys ♫

With this kind of mentality,

your future kid is definitely
a kindergarten bully.

♫ But I can't tell ♫

♫ I still have my sanity ♫

It ripped off half of
the German Shepard's ear

and won the fight.

Er Gou is something else.

♫ I fled for a week ♫

The dog feed isn't for nothing.

That's unexpected.

♫ You don't seem to be surprised ♫

It appears slow-witted.

But it goes wild at a critical moment.

♫ Because when you look into my eyes ♫

Oh, right. Have you had your breakfast?

-Let me get you something to eat.
-Sit down.

♫ I have told you a thousand times ♫

Why did you want to see me?

I don't believe an illustrator

would make you go berserk like this.

♫ The world is on
the verge of elimination ♫

I haven't even started talking.

And you're acting like a dog
whose tail gets stepped on.

♫ Only you are still favoured by me ♫

Don't even bring that up.

There's some error
with the merchandise figure.

Every one of us who's
dealing with the contract

♫ I've got a million whys ♫

was given an earful

and a pay cut.

And it's not a small amount.

The worst part is

my landlord wants me to move out.

Now I don't even have a place to live.

Ask your family for help.

♫ Because when you look into my eyes ♫

They wouldn't refuse to
lend you a hand, would they?

Forget about it.

My dad's got a controlling wife.
His life is more miserable than mine.

♫ I have told you a thousand times ♫

And my mum hopes I can't hang on

so that I can pack up and head home soon.

♫ You don't have to guess ♫

All right, stop your sadfishing.

♫ How much I depend on you ♫

I agree to it.

♫ Because when you hold me in your arms ♫

Agree to what?

♫ I have never felt so right ♫

What are you talking about?

♫ If this is not love ♫

Are you saying

that you agree to use Cocoon's service?

♫ What can I tell myself ♫

Really?

Mr Zhou Chuan!

Thank you!

You're truly
the greatest writer in the world!

How about Jiang Yu Cheng?

Both of you are the greatest writers.

[Dad]

What are you looking at?

Hello, Dad.

[Hello.]

[Where are you?]

Hello, Dad. I'm outside.

[Did Er Gou get into
a fight with another dog?]

How did you know that?

Aren't you abusing it

by sending him to the pet shop?

What do you mean by "abusing it"?
Please mind your words.

I've been busy for the past two days.

That's why I left it to
the pet sitters at the shop.

And they took good care of it.

The canned foods were from the house.
And there's even an hour of...

Surprisingly, Mr Zhou Chuan
is not only rude to me.

He's as rude to his dad.

Jiang Yu Cheng has got a big mouth indeed.

Didn't you call him

for something else?

Get down the business.

[Hello. Are you still listening?]

[Listen.]

There will be a meeting at
the Writers Association next week.

You and Xiao Jiang need to be there.

And bring Er Gou back here
for recuperation.

Why did you suddenly decide on it?

I've said that I don't want to
attend that meeting.

And now you want to take my dog away.

You're already an old man.
And you're taking your son's dog.

How shameful.

What are you saying?

I say I don't want to attend that meeting.

I'm doing this for your own sake.

Fine.

Bring Er Gou back here.
I'll take care of it.

Not only do you want me
to attend the meeting,

but also take away my dog.

Your negotiation skills
are unparalleled indeed.

[Er Gou can't even close its mouth.]

[How can I take it back there?]

If we were to deliver it,

what if it gets infected

or bumps into something?

What do you mean by
"it's as fragile as its owner"?

Let's drop it. You win.

I'm hanging up!

Hello?

Here.

Thanks.

You weren't used to drinking this.

That's three years ago.

Three years ago, you would at least

make the best choice for yourself.

I seriously don't get it.

In terms of experience,
I'm more experienced than her.

In terms of condition,
Xin Dun Books is surely the better option.

In terms of relationship,

I think I won't hurt you.

Why did you choose her?

She's different from you.

At least she knows

how to respect others' hard work.

She knows how to appreciate words.

You're still blaming me.

I'm not blaming you.

I neither love

nor hate you.

And I don't miss you.

But as a writer,

I will never choose

an editor that betrayed me.

[Ai-Bi Pet Hospital]

I've also paid for the medical expenses
of that German Shepherd.

4,000-plus yuan?

What are you looking at?

Er Gou has gotten into the car.

I would love to get bitten by it.

You need not give me a lot of money.

I just need a few thousand yuan
for one month's rent.

That German Shepherd is a racing dog
with a pedigree certificate.

What do you have?

The birth certificate from
Second People's Hospital in Hangzhou.

Get in the car.

Dogs live better than humans.

Enter your house address for navigation.

Done.

Did Mr Zhou Gu Xuan call you just now?

He invited you to join the meeting
at Writers Association?

The meeting is an annual thing.

Why aren't you joining it?

It's really no fun.

If I join it,

everyone will ask me
if I'm single or taken.

And then they will start introducing

their nieces and granddaughters.

Does Writers Association act as
the matchmaker for single authors?

Why do I feel so tired talking to you?

Why do you seem so envy?

Not at all.

I got it.

You find it boring to make
small talk with those writers

because you don't have
common interest topics, right?

You're a human when your brain is working.

Yes, that's what I meant.

Actually, there are

many things to learn from
traditional literature.

An exciting and in-depth novel

makes an educational entertainment,
isn't it?

Be more open-minded, Mr Zhou Chuan.

Miao gives you a lecture every day.

But do you like it?

There are veteran writers that are
both noble and talented.

But there's another kind of people.

For example, Miao.

He doesn't want you to
become a good editor.

He just wants to tell everyone this.

"I've done my part."

"So don't call me unforgiving."

"He didn't learn well after all."

I got it.

Miao has always hated me.

He hopes I quit.

But I never make that an excuse
for not doing my job well

and leaving this large,
resourceful forest.

Since you're not able to assimilate
yourself perfectly into the food chain,

you must leave soonest to save your life.

Mr Zhou Chuan.

How could you say so?

Even Er Gou fought for its territory.

When you're in a new environment

and find out that
you can't assimilate into it,

you can't just turn around and leave.

You need to work harder

to become the top figure
in the new food chain.

Running away doesn't solve anything.

What a chatterbox.

Indeed.

All I ever do is preach.

I can't manage my little,
ordinary life well.

I should head home early

and find myself a living spot
under the bridge.

Safety belt.

Thanks.

This is it?

Yes.

You got worked up because you're
sad from losing a living place like this?

Isn't it better than

where the beggars gather?

I'm heading home, then.
Thank you for sending me home, sir.

Take good care of Er Gou.

I have an idea.

You're looking for a place to live.

And I need someone to take care of Er Gou
when I'm not around.

So...

There happens to be
an empty room at our place.

It's not that big.
Only several tens of square meters.

And it comes with a toilet and etc.

It's rent-free.

Really?

I thought you'd get mad and say

"What a rogue!
Who would want to stay with you?"

You should've put on an act.

You look like a freeloader,
and it makes me feel that

♫ What time is it?
You are still sleeping? ♫

my idea is very ridiculous.

♫ Chopping wood, keeping a dog, working ♫

There's nothing bad about it.

After all, it's not much different

♫ Where did I stop yesterday? ♫

than living with a group of
beggars under the bridge.

If they don't take a bath,
how could you do so?

♫ I can replay my feelings ♫

My dear landlord.

♫ Daydreaming in the dark of night ♫

What can I do to repay your kindness
or show my gratitude?

♫ Chasing after you beyond the universe ♫

You just need to feed and walk the dog.

And feed me.

♫ Be a darling in the gorgeous castle ♫

But it's very lucky of you.
Because you need not walk me.

♫ It's not like this ♫

I promise I will complete the mission.

♫ Oh, waiting for your signal, hello ♫

I'll head back and pack up.

♫ My cutie is here ♫

Sure.

♫ We have a date online and offline ♫

When can I move in?

Anytime will do.

Er Gou, bye-bye.

[Yuan Yue Publishing House]

Thank you.

Chu Li. Well...

You're moving.

I'm sorry for not being of any help.

Never mind.

I've found myself a very nice place.

That's a big area and neighbourhood.

Really?

Well,

is it very expensive?

It's actually quite cheap.

You seem to have met
a rare, good landlord.

It's indeed a rare one.

He's short-tempered and
with a wicked tongue.

He's also narcissistic and childish.

But he's quite a nice guy.

That's great.

Oh, right.

Mr Zhou Chuan has agreed
to use Cocoon's service.

But out of unwillingness.

Mr Zhou Chuan has such a warm character.

Why does he hate Cocoon so much?

I have no clue about that.

I'm only responsible to publish his book.

Let's go and meet Cocoon.

Here's the thing.

Our publishing house will publish
a very important novel this year end.

After careful thought, we agree that
only your illustrations

could go well with this book.

It's going to be published this year end?

I'm sorry.

If you need it urgently,
I'm not the right person.

I take drawing seriously.

I must meet my own standards

for each of my drafts.

That's right.

Our publishing house finds
this quality of yours admirable.

That's why we'd like to
collaborate with you.

As for the pay,

we will increase the amount.

I wonder if you're interested in it.

Increase the amount?

Can your publishing house
pay more than Xin Dun Books?

Ms Gu from Xin Dun Books
just contacted me.

I'm already busy enough
working on her book.

And my schedule is full
until this year end.

What we're publishing

is Mr Zhou Chuan's new book.

Book of Luo He God.

Zhou Chuan.

Did he specifically ask you to see me?

Actually...

Of course!

I'm his editor.

And I hear him talking
about you all the time.

He talks about you for
eight to ten times per day.

He keeps calling
your illustrations very beautiful.

We came here

out of Mr Zhou Chuan's recommendation.

He insists on having you illustrate
for his book cover.

Really?

His admiration for you
seems to be of a special kind.

I accept the job.

[Cocoon]

But I'd like to talk to
Zhou Chuan in person.

Huh?

What? Is there any problem?

No problem.

As for the pay...

In the face of art,
money matters the least.

Moreover,

it's Mr Zhou Chuan's book.

Thank you, miss.

Thank you. Goodbye, miss.

Chu Li, what you said isn't true, is it?

Indeed.

What do we do when they meet?

Let's make it through this first.

I've arrived.

Why didn't you call a moving company?

That's too costly.

There's no way I could afford it.

Thank you, Mr Zhou Chuan.

You're such a nice person.

Save your thanks.

Memorise this.

Thirty Rules for the Tenant?

Thirty rules?

Do not take advantage of the circumstance

and commit bad deeds

against the landlord.

Bad deeds?

Like urging me to submit a manuscript.

And day and night, using whatever methods

to repeatedly demand the landlord to use

the service of the illustrator he hates.

Or force the landlord into signing

another publishing contract

that offers a pathetic minimum
number of printed copies.

What were you thinking?

It seems that you're
very much prejudiced against me.

You just found out about it?

But I'm

very sincere with you.

When I received your call yesterday,

I spent my last 100 yuan,

which was supposed to be

for my living expenses,

to hail a cab and see you.

Otherwise, you wouldn't

have shown up here.

Firmly protect
the landlord's personal privacy.

Do not post the landlord's private photos

on social media.

Do not threaten the landlord
with his naked pictures.

Naked pictures?!

You...

I am a virtuous

and innocent girl.

Why would I have your naked pictures?

I have no idea what you are like.

That's why I included that.

Fine. Well...

Well, for the sake of fairness,

I think this privacy rule

is applicable for the landlord, too.

Am I that bad?

You?

I...

Er Gou, let's go home!

Think about what to have for dinner.

It has to do with
your future as my tenant.

What do we have?

Eggs.

What else?

I don't remember.

Mr Zhou Chuan!

Save me!

Er Gou, we're not home yet.

Do you have to work yourself up?

Er Gou, hurry up.

Er Gou, I'm moving into your house.

Let me see your tiny eyes.

Er Gou, hurry up.

The moon is so beautiful tonight.

[The moon is so beautiful tonight.]

Mr Fox.

If a person

suddenly tells a girl that

the moon is so beautiful tonight,

what does it mean?

[Mr Fox.]

[If a person]

[suddenly tells a girl that]

[the moon is so beautiful tonight,]

[what does it mean?]

I couldn't help myself saying that.

What's gotten into me?

[The Navy Hired by the Monkey]

[Do you think he's talking
about the weather?]

[Or is it like what Natsume Soseki said?]

[The Disappearing Mr Fox]

[That he likes you.]

He likes me?

Chu Li, why are you imagining things?

That's impossible.

[The Disappearing Mr Fox]

[Sometimes, your instinct makes
the most truthful answer.]

[The meaning is]

[what you think it is.]

What did he mean?

[Instinct makes the most truthful answer.]

[Weather]
[Perfect for moon watching]

[Mr Fox.]

[I've just the weather.]

[Tonight is indeed a full-moon night.]

[And it's fullest than ever.]

[Maybe he's just
talking about the weather.]

[It can't be more than that.]

[In fact, that person is
a unicellular organism.]

[He could only perform amitosis]

[and self-reproduction.]

[There's no way he can
fall in love with anyone.]

[Of course,]

[I'm asking this for my friend.]

Unicellular organism?

You Stinky Monkey.

Why did I even say that?

Brother Cheng, here's your coffee.

Thanks.

Brother, are you waiting for someone?

Get back to work.

Okay.

[The Breaking Cocoon]

[I'm free tonight.]

[Can I meet with Mr Zhou Chuan]

[and talk about the collaboration?]

Why did you ask to see me, Mr Jiang?

Chu Li.

This is for you.

Consider a small gift
for spending your past two days

reading my manuscript.

No need.

It's my job to read your manuscript.

Moreover,

I enjoyed reading it.

It's the book written by my idol.

And it's the first manuscript.

Take it as a gift for my reader.

Well, thank you, Mr Jiang.

Unwrap it when you get home.

Get back to work now.

Oh, right.

Do you know

how to make Mr Zhou Chuan

do what he doesn't want to do?

For example,

having a meal with someone he hates.

Don't tell who that person is.

Just make him go there.

Would he hit me?

If that happens, just call me.

I'd stop him for you.

Fine. I'll get going, then.

-Bye-bye.
-Bye-bye.

You're back.

What are we having for dinner?

Mr Zhou Chuan.

I've specifically reserved
a table at a restaurant.

And I'd like to invite you
to have dinner with me.

Something smells fishy.

You're behaving more
obsequiously than usual.

Shoot. What's your motive?

Don't say like that.

It makes me upset.

With a purely grateful

and earnest heart,

I'd like to buy you a good meal

for letting me stay here rent-free.

I'm so sad.

I specifically booked the table.

And I thought you'd definitely like it.

All right, I'll go.

I've brought a mischief-maker home.

Thank you, Mr Zhou Chuan.
