[A haughty, straightforward, sunny senior sister x an upright, wooden junior brother]
[Both are each other's first and only love; a heroine who grows and matures]
Zhenyi first met Xie Qinglan after the recruitment ceremony.
He was even shorter than her, slight of build, and so pale he looked like he might collapse at the slightest breeze.
She resolved to protect this frail boy at all costs.
And so...
Zhenyi: Junior Brother, take my spirit spring!
Zhenyi: Junior Brother, take my spirit artifact!
Zhenyi: Junior Brother, take my family, too!
Xie Qinglan: ? Thank you, Senior Sister, but there's really no need!
Xie Qinglan knows that Zhenyi's kindness toward him has never been entirely selfless, but he still can't help craving it.
He's well-behaved, obedient, and sensible. He takes care of all his senior sister's troubles and saves the best things for her.
But she never needs them. Whenever she returns his gifts, she gives him even more in return.
And so their daily life goes like this...
Xie Qinglan: Senior Sister, here's a gemstone you like. It's for you.
Zhenyi: (infuses it with spiritual energy, then gives it back to him)
Xie Qinglan: Senior Sister, here's the finest talisman paper. It's for you!
Zhenyi: (draws all kinds of talismans, then gives them back to him)
Xie Qinglan: Senior Sister, I own a shop. It's yours.
Zhenyi: (gives him every shop she owns)
Zhenyi is always wondering why her junior brother keeps giving her things. She's the senior sister, so shouldn't she be the one giving him gifts?
Xie Qinglan is always wondering why his senior sister never wants to accept his kindness. Isn't devoting himself body and soul to her exactly what a junior brother should do?
