Lord Huaishan had waited in the mountains for a thousand years, until the young man Ji Zhen stumbled into the mountain mist.
He was lively, spontaneous, and affectionate. He told Lord Huaishan, "Come with me. The city has everything, and I'll take care of you." Lord Huaishan agreed, sealed off the mountain, and followed him into the completely unfamiliar city. There, under the name Ji Huaishan, he became Ji Zhen's partner in the mortal world.
He didn't know how to soothe people or feel jealous, much less understand the unspoken feelings woven through city life. He thought love meant always being there, but Ji Zhen wanted far more than just "always being there"...
