The Rugged Taoist Knows How to Care for People

Although Liu Ziyou is the son of a wealthy family, he was born frail. By every reckoning, he was destined to die young, so his father ignored him, his stepmother left him alone, and he was sent to live on an estate where nobody paid him any mind. The moment he ventured outside, he was kidnapped.

At the bandits' hideout, before any rescuers arrived, he met Chen Xu, a Daoist priest traveling the world after coming down from his mountain.

Chen the Daoist had only gone up the mountain to deal with a few bandits, yet he came back with a clingy young master at his side. The young master not only shamelessly stuck close to him, but was also a chatterbox, giving the priest, who valued his quiet cultivation, quite a headache.

Still, Chen decided to see the good deed through and take the young master to the capital to find his family. Unfortunately, the young man suffered from a chronic illness: he couldn't be cold, he couldn't be hot, he couldn't walk too far, and he couldn't sit for too long...

The rough-and-ready Daoist had never dealt with anyone like him. Taciturn as he was, his impatience showed plainly on his face. But whenever he saw the young master curled up and miserable, his heart softened and he gave in.

Gradually, the Daoist became more and more adept and attentive at looking after him. When he was cold, Chen held him close; when he was hot, he fanned him; when he was tired, Chen carried him...

Every last coin Chen had worked so hard to earn went to Liu Ziyou.

Chen cultivated by following his heart. Once he understood his feelings, his mind cleared in an instant.

The Daoist wasn't good with words, but he was a man of action.

So one day, Liu Ziyou suddenly noticed that Chen had changed. His naturally unruly hair was now combed impeccably, the stubble on his chin was gone, and his loose, shabby robe had become fitted, showing off his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long, firm legs. He kept parading around right in front of Liu Ziyou...

After twenty-seven years of ascetic restraint, the Daoist fell in love, and once he started, there was no stopping him. Every night before bed, he had to check whether Liu Ziyou was feeling well, and when he would finally get better.

Liu Ziyou, who had already recovered, trembled in fear...

In short, once this taciturn, rugged man figured out his feelings, he became terrifying, shamelessly showing off for the frail young master.

A few things to note: pure, everyday fluff, absolutely no logic, and poor writing. Please proceed with caution.
