He Yi meets Feng Yang and falls in love at first sight.
Feng Yang gives He Yi ten refusals, then rejects her anyway.
She is a beloved princess who can have anything she wants. Even when she wanted the Imperial Tutor as her husband, her father found a way to arrange it.
He is a young Imperial Tutor with great power. He does whatever he wants and refuses to do what he doesn't, but when it comes to becoming the princess's husband, he has no choice.
Their half year of marriage feels like an eternity. The end is there from the start.
She gives him books, paintings, precious trinkets, clothes and pastries she made herself. He refuses them.
She then offers him her own playful charm, gentle warmth, and soft lips. He refuses those too.
Finally, she hands him a divorce agreement, saying they should go their separate ways and each find happiness. And yet he... still... refuses!
