[A clever, levelheaded, cherished disciple of the immortal sect + a devoted, brooding love-struck loyalist.]
“Su Yuan, if you like me, you can kiss me first.” Watching the young man's ears turn scarlet, Su Yuan admired the sight with interest.
Born with a damaged heart meridian, Su Yuan crossed paths with Li Hen by chance. She couldn't understand why she trusted him so completely, even though she could hardly believe it herself.
Li Hen was the mighty young lord of the demon race. He had only meant to cause trouble at Xuanqing Sect, but never expected a sickly little girl to throw his heart into disarray.
Their first meeting was rushed and unpleasant, and she misunderstood him.
The second time, he wanted to give her a soft armor, but a twist of fate led him to upset her so badly that she fainted again.
Everyone said the demon lord despised the sickly girl from Xuanqing Sect.
Until one day, they accidentally witnessed the demon lord taking a beating from Su Yuan without fighting back.
Everyone: “...”
Li Hen knew he had no backbone, too. But whenever he saw her suffering or unhappy, his heart hurt uncontrollably. He thought something was wrong with him. He couldn't understand how things had come to this. Even if Su Yuan hated him, he couldn't bear to leave. His heart still beat in time with hers, so he decided she would have to take responsibility for him.
“Xi Yue, you treat me differently from everyone else. Admit it, you like me.” Qing Xing looked at her, his voice certain, though it trembled ever so slightly.
“Mm.” She didn't want to keep avoiding it. She wanted to give Qing Xing an answer.
[Qing Xing will always stay by Xi Yue's side, and Li Hen will always submit to Su Yuan.]
The female lead's heart-meridian problem is soon resolved. Their bond spans past and present lives, and she is doted on by everyone. A strong female lead.
