When Pei Shu was seven, both her parents died in a car accident. She was adopted by Jake, an American tennis coach, and given the new name Ai Xue. She grew up alongside Jake's son, Noey.
Eleven years later, a black-covered notebook arrived in Ai Xue's hands in an anonymous email... She decided to return to China.
Six months later, she became a freshman at Zhongming University. There, she made many good friends, and also met her neighbor, Jiang Ke. Their second encounter was utterly absurd: after getting drunk, she ran to his home, kissed and hugged him, then cuddled up with him for the whole night... If she told him she'd just been drunk and mistaken him for her cat who had turned into a person, would he believe her?
Ai Xue: "About last night... it really was a misunderstanding."
Jiang Ke: "A misunderstanding? You slept with me all night, and you're brushing it off with one word?"
??? That's a very concise summary...

The truth comes to light, layer by layer.
Why did Jiang Ke show up at her parents' graves?
When she was ten, someone deliberately knocked her down while she was skiing in America, and an older boy came to her aid. Why does Jiang Ke have a mole on the inside of his right wrist, exactly like that boy's?

Ai Xue: "Brother Jiang Ke, thank you. Even after I forgot you, you never chose to forget me."
Jiang Ke: "Whatever you want to do, I'll stand by you unconditionally. I need you. Could you need me, too?"
