Shen Zhiyi is a famously lively and mischievous young woman in the capital. Her darting eyes conceal a sly streak, and when the corners of her mouth turn up, trouble is sure to follow.
By chance, she finds Gu Yun unconscious and badly wounded in a back alley. Impressed by his exceptional martial skills, she insists on bringing him home as her personal bodyguard. Gu Yun is taciturn, with eyes as cold as ice, but whenever Shen Zhiyi gets into trouble, he quietly cleans up after her. When she is wronged, he protects her without making a fuss, becoming her very own “long-suffering bodyguard.”
One is spoiled and willful, yet pure-hearted and passionate; the other is cold on the outside, warm on the inside, and deeply devoted beneath his quiet restraint. Shen Zhiyi’s brightness is like the warm sun, slowly melting Gu Yun’s frozen heart. Gu Yun’s steadfast protection is like a boulder, quietly becoming Shen Zhiyi’s strongest support. From their initial testing and distance to the blushes and racing hearts as their feelings come to light, affection slowly blossoms amid their everyday bickering and mutual support.
The gulf between their social standings, their families’ trials, and the secrets of the past cannot stand in the way of their love. When the lively young lady boldly confesses, and the long-suffering bodyguard drops his disguise, they overcome every obstacle with sincerity and courage. The pair who were once playful adversaries under the same roof become indispensable parts of each other’s lives.
