Three hundred years ago, heavenly fire came to the world, and a jasmine plant was protected by a gardener with its life. Fortunately, a strand of roots survived. Three hundred years later, Jasmine transformed into a demon named Su Ling. She was timid by nature and was most afraid of thunderstorms. On the day of the Awakening of Insects, she was struck down by thunder from the sky and fell under the umbrella of the fallen scholar Xie Heng. Xie Heng didn't know she was a demon, so he took her home and took good care of her.
Su Ling is greedy for the fireworks in the world, and even more for Xie Heng's tenderness, but she doesn't know that Xie Heng was the gardener who was obsessed with her in her previous life. With the appearance of Shen Zhao, a wandering Taoist priest, the intervention of Liu Rumei, a noble lady from the capital, and the covetousness of Demon King Mo Xuan, Su Ling and Xie Heng went through misunderstandings, separations, and tests of life and death, and finally revealed the truth about their past lives. They exchanged three hundred years of cultivation for a lifetime in Chang'an, and took root in his courtyard. Year after year, flowers bloomed as before.
