High-maintenance drama queen + obsessive devotee of his first love + secretly hopeless at everyday life vs. practical sharp-tongued man + fiercely protective chicken dad + secretly money-minded
To pay for her father's medical bills, Su Li becomes the high-end pet caretaker of Gu Ziyi, head of the Gu Group, responsible for looking after Bai Feng, a white-feathered Silkie hen he cherishes as his first love.
Gu Ziyi's devotion to Bai Feng is absurdly intense: he has her coop painted Tiffany blue, makes Su Li sing lullabies, and even puts a board meeting on hold for the chicken, threatening to bankrupt anyone who lays a finger on her.
Su Li complains that he treats the chicken like royalty, but gradually discovers that his obsession stems from a stormy night in his youth, when Bai Feng kept him company through his loneliness.
Gu Ziyi's gaze grows gentler as he looks at her, but trouble soon follows. Business rivals want to steal the chicken to get leverage over him, the Gu family elders oppose her identity as a “farmer,” and Su Li somehow finds herself jealous of a chicken.
In the end, Gu Ziyi, who once declared that he loved only his first love, cuddles up to Su Li and pouts: “Bai Feng has her own special feed, and you have my special affection.”
