Lin Xueci, a professor of Classical Chinese who transmigrates into the body of a down-and-out male insectoid, finds Huo Xiao, a badly wounded pirate captain, at a secondhand market. He meant to take in a bodyguard, but instead ended up with a mechanic who loves wearing a little bear apron. When a wildly possessive male insectoid meets a retired lieutenant general who fails at pretending to be meek, two lonely souls entwine their fingers while hanging out the sheets. It turns out the sweetest thing in the universe is the osmanthus fragrance clinging to mechanical wings. [A sweet, everyday romance]
