Background / History

Xiuxiu has worked alongside Wang Siyi for several years. She remains with Wang when Wang leaves Xinyi Huyou for Yangcheng and continues supporting her even during the period when Wang considers leaving the entertainment industry altogether. Xiuxiu's loyalty stems from recognizing that Wang's cool public image conceals a polite and genuinely kind personality. 2 34 101

When Wang develops feelings for Li Changle, Xiuxiu becomes her confidante. After learning that Wang's supposed “friend” is actually herself, Xiuxiu resolves to assess Li's character and protect Wang from being deceived. She eventually learns that Li is the man who saved Wang, the author of Legend of Sword and Fairy, and the writer of “Red Bean.” 35

Xiuxiu repeatedly helps conceal Wang and Li's developing relationship from Chen Baozhu. She creates plausible explanations for Wang's unusual behavior, covers for their private outings, and even feigns stomach pain so Wang and Li can spend time alone. 93 96 114

When Su Yanying attempts to recruit her as an assistant in exchange for information on Li Xiaoyao, Xiuxiu recognizes the scheme and plays along while pretending not to know Li's identity. Her responses lead Su to abandon the attempt. 125 126

During Wang's preparations to spend more time with Li in Shanghai, Xiuxiu efficiently finds and leases an apartment in the same residential complex for Li's use. She later insists on continuing to follow Wang and Chen Baozhu after Wang's contract ends, rather than remain at Xinyi. 157 215

After Wang establishes Lovesickness Studio, Xiuxiu is assigned to assist Ye Susu. The two quickly become close, sharing snacks and watching dramas together. Even after Wang reduces her workload, Xiuxiu remains her assistant for events and lives in the apartment opposite Wang and Li. 271 373

Personality

Xiuxiu is outgoing, blunt, and highly expressive. She openly marvels at Wang's change after falling in love, frequently framing herself as a “single dog” forced to witness the couple's affection. Despite repeatedly declaring that she has no interest in romance, she enthusiastically advises Wang on how to pursue Li. 86 101 111 134

She is deeply protective of Wang, viewing Wang's happiness and career as responsibilities she has taken upon herself. This loyalty does not prevent her from teasing Wang, but it does lead her to keep Wang's secrets even when Chen Baozhu becomes suspicious. 34 93 102

Outside work, Xiuxiu prefers a low-key homebody lifestyle centered on eating, gaming, reading novels, and watching dramas. Her fondness for food is especially apparent when she eagerly eats Li's cooking and prepares snacks before watching Legend of Sword and Fairy. 110 114 271
