[Two female leads + ensemble cast + both are each other's only one + switch roles]
No BL secondary couples, no harem-breaking plotlines
- A pampered, aloof, well-behaved young lady vs. a gentle, restrained girl who is the light of her life
- A chivalrous young heroine vs. an obsessive, unhinged black lotus
- A rebellious noblewoman vs. a doctor who is the bane of the martial world
The breeze at Zhaoying Academy brings with it three passionate, tangled romances.
Dugu Lingyi, born to wealth and privilege, is so carefully protected by her aunt that not even her fingertips are allowed to get hurt, until she meets Ni Qingjia.
Ni Qingjia rides with her beneath the moon, helps her break free of her restraints, and, in the tenderness they share day after day, quietly falls for her without even realizing it.
The chivalrous Song Zheng rescues the calculating Xiao Jinyuan.
Xiao is dazzled by Song's upright, noble nature. Desperate to keep that light by her side, she is willing to hurt others and herself. In the end, she even wants to drag Song down into the mud with her, just so they can stand side by side.
And Ye Weirui, who has always called the shots at the gambling table, falls into the hands of the doctor Li Ruo'er.
She loses a wager completely, and from then on, none of her lies work on Li. This proud, brazen noblewoman has met the one person who is her natural nemesis.
Later, when the academy's autumn festival ends, the spirited matches on the polo field and the undercurrents swirling through the night banquet all become footnotes to their love and heartache.
Only when all their tenderness and obsession are laid bare do they realize that they had fallen for each other long ago. Neither of them, however, was willing to be the first to say it aloud.
