The cold-blooded apprentice × the lazy and unruly master.
Xie Ming thought that as long as he abided by the rules in this life, he would be able to gain a foothold in this world. Until that unkempt master broke into his territory again and again, ruffling his fallen leaves, pinching his cheeks red, and leaving a hot mark on the order he carefully constructed.
What he didn't know was that somewhere where he couldn't see, someone had already locked his blood crystals, scrapped manuscripts, broken hairpins... All into an ebony box and kept them for eleven years.
Master and disciple, forbidden love.
This is a long confession that begins with habit and ends with obsession.
Purpose: Between taboos and protection, explore the boundaries between master-disciple ethics and human obsessions
