The female lead is not a virgin, while the male lead is.
[Soft, sweet, easy-to-bully little bunny + rebellious, unruly young wolf]
On the eve of her father's coronation, her mother, the principal consort, secretly sent Feng Xi'er, still an infant in swaddling clothes, out of the palace. She grew up in a rundown village, unaware of her origins, and her foster parents arranged for her to marry the young scholar next door.
One day, while helping someone in need, she came across Zhou Shengzhi, the son of the Right Chancellor, who had been gravely wounded. He was arrogant and imperious, yet exceptionally handsome. Even with his eyes closed, he had an unrestrained, domineering air.
The first time he got a clear look at her, she stood there timidly, like a dewdrop-covered flower.
Gradually, the way he looked at her changed.
She was soft as a bundle of freshly fluffed cotton. His arms tightened around her. Her waist was so slender that it seemed his hand could almost encircle it.
He couldn't help letting out a rough breath. Even through her coarse clothes, he could feel the warmth beneath them. His nose brushed the crown of her head, and the faint scent of soapwort mingled with wild herbs and plants drifted into him, seeping straight into his heart.
She experienced the stirrings of love for the first time and gave him her heart for life.
But by a cruel twist of fate, they were separated.
Adrift in the unfamiliar capital, she struggled to survive. Only after she became a bedchamber maid to Zhang Feng, the eldest son of the Marquis of Beiping, did she find a place of peace.
Zhang Feng seemed like no ordinary man, but an immortal fallen from the heavens. He had not a trace of worldly warmth about him, and people did not dare approach.
Gradually, her feelings for him began to change...
