[Peerless beauty + aloof, calculating bodyguard + intense angst and sweetness + plot twists]
This is a story about humble devotion and silent sacrifice.
The heroine is a woman who transmigrated. She isn't complicated, though she's not completely guileless either. She's kind and optimistic, dislikes being constrained by rules, and loves her freedom to do as she pleases. In her previous life, she was an exceptionally talented agricultural scientist. Influenced by her grandfather, she developed a deep interest in cultivation, and had already made a name for herself in agricultural science.
The male lead had a complicated childhood. He endured hardship at the very bottom of society, witnessed the ugliness of human nature, and suffered all manner of inhuman abuse. The heroine is his only light. But he restrains his love for her too much, to the point that she cannot feel it, so she doesn't truly fall for him at first.
Early on, the heroine believes she likes Bai Luoshen, but she doesn't truly love him. She simply thinks that letting things happen naturally would make everyone happy.
The male lead is extremely cold-blooded and rebellious. Apart from the heroine, he can easily cast anyone aside.
When the splendor fades, the lanterns go dark, and every beautiful thing turns to bubbles,
“Princess, don't be afraid! I'll always be here…”
