Zhu Ran watched as the novel she’d submitted to the “Green Green” column on Nan University’s public account attracted no attention at all. She never imagined winning the 5,000-yuan prize in the writing contest would be so hard!
Just when she was at a loss, her roommate suggested, “Why not try posting it on Xiaohongshu? If one of your posts goes viral and gets ten thousand likes, you’ll get exposure and attract readers to vote for you!”
Zhu Ran thought that made perfect sense and registered a Xiaohongshu account right away.
A week later, she posted a note titled “Wow! My Husband Looks So Handsome Today!”
Watching the likes shoot up, she nodded with satisfaction. That night, she went even harder in the comments, showering him with praise.

Liang Ancai never imagined he’d go viral overnight on Xiaohongshu because someone posted a photo from his basketball MVP interview.
He also never imagined a girl would use that photo to passionately profess her love for him in the comments on a post titled “Wow! My Husband Looks So Handsome Today!”
Curious, he went to check the comments.
That night, almost in a daze, he quietly liked the comment, “I love how aloof and cool my iceberg husband looks today!”

One day, Liang Ancai opened Xiaohongshu as usual to see what comment the account “Cici’s Wife” had left for him that day.
He refreshed the page, and the post was gone.
What the heck? He carefully checked his phone screen again and saw that someone had edited the viral post. The title had even been changed to “This Campus Novel Is the Best of the Year!!!”
He opened the Xiaohongshu account, now renamed “Writer Xiao Ran,” and sent a private message: “Come out and talk.”
Writer Xiao Ran: “Who are you?”
Momo, too lazy to change his username: “Your husband.”
Writer Xiao Ran: “...?”
Hubby! Hubby! Let me explain!
That really wasn’t me, sob sob T_T
Female lead: A passionate fangirl online, a quiet, well-behaved little quail in person
Male lead: A handsome, swaggering heartthrob in public, a bashful, lovestruck puppy in private
Reader’s Guide:
1. To win a writing contest, the female lead uses the male lead’s photo to make a viral Xiaohongshu post, then edits the post to increase its exposure and get more readers to vote for her novel. In the process, she accidentally reels in the male lead.
2. A sweet college campus romance, secret identities, one-on-one romance, happy ending.
3. The male lead plays dumb while hiding his true abilities at first, then later has to suffer to win back his wife.
4. This blurb was written on December 22, 2023, and has been screenshotted and archived, with proof kept on Weibo. Plagiarism will be pursued.
