When Qing Wu first met Liang Yu'an, he was a renowned nobleman, gentle and kind to everyone, seemingly incapable of losing his temper.
She was a demoness everyone wanted dead. Her favorite thing was to tease him and watch him blush to the tips of his ears, helpless to do anything about it.
Sadly, after only three years together, he had to leave for some reason, and never returned, not even by the time she died.

When Qing Wu met Liang Yu'an again, she had become a wandering spirit, drifting through the world for hundreds of years.
He had been reincarnated several times and was now a revered monk at Qingdeng Temple, without a trace of human emotion and with no memory of his past lives.
That night, Qing Wu entered his dream and glimpsed the memories sealed away inside him.
In the dream, blood flowed through a thousand-year-old temple. The usually gentle Liang Yu'an had gone on a killing rampage, trying only to get her out of the place that held her soul captive. Even as he lay dying, he never stopped protecting her body.

She'd thought that when she followed him back then, it was only because she found him interesting, and that she felt nothing more.
But when she came out of the dream, for some reason, her heart hurt so much she could hardly breathe.
Qing Wu bit her lip and pondered for a long time before deciding... to seduce him into returning to secular life.

Career-minded, tough-as-nails straight woman VS love-brained, top-tier green-tea man
For three generations, the kings of Chu had all been women. Though their harems held three thousand handsome men, they had few children.
By the fourth generation, Ling Shuanghua was the only heir left.
Unfortunately, she was as wooden as a post, completely uninterested in romance. All she cared about was conquering the other five kingdoms, defeating the Son of Heaven of Great Yan, and ruling the world.
With the throne about to go without an heir, the King of Chu steeled herself, dragged Ling Shuanghua out of the council chamber, and kicked her out of the palace, issuing her a harsh ultimatum:
You can go without a man, but you can't go without a child. Don't come back otherwise.
Ling Shuanghua could only rub her nose and figure she'd find a man to father a child with first, just to deal with the emergency.
She had her eye on a retainer in General Xu's household. He was stunningly beautiful, gentle in temperament, and just her type.
To avoid offending the beauty, Ling Shuanghua decided to cultivate a relationship with him first.
She brought him an umbrella on rainy days and shaded him on sunny ones, cooked him meals with her own hands, and spent a fortune just to make him smile.
Half a year later, she finally managed to trick the beauty... no, to coax him into bed.
The beauty was excellent in bed, and Ling Shuanghua was very satisfied. She felt she couldn't leave him with nothing.
After she got pregnant, she left him a grand mansion and five estates, then returned to the palace with a clear conscience.
She planned to visit him at the end of each month and, when the time was right, tell him who she was. She could even bring him back to the palace.
But when she went to see him again, General Xu informed her that the beauty had disappeared.
Five years later, Chu and Qi formed an alliance to attack Yan. Ling Shuanghua went to discuss battle plans with the heir of Qi.
When she entered the Qi camp, she found the heir strangely familiar.
Without thinking, she asked, "Have we met before?"
He gritted his teeth. "You tell me, child's mother."
Ling Shuanghua: Save me! What do I do if my child's father is going to become one of Chu's greatest enemies?!
