Nan Ling is a thousand-year-old lotus demon from the demon realm. One day, she accidentally casts a love spell on the aloof immortal Qing Jue, who has no interest in worldly things.
To save her life, she clings to him and begs for ages.
"Sniffle, sniffle, Immortal Lord, this little demon has nowhere else to go."
"Sniffle, sniffle, this little demon likes you best, Immortal Lord."
Not long after, Nan Ling learns that all the spell's worms are female, so her life is no longer in danger. She runs away that very night.
Life is wonderful when she doesn't have to pretend to be a delicate little flower. But Nan Ling hasn't enjoyed her freedom for long when she runs into Qing Jue at the Queen Mother's banquet.
The once-cool immortal seems like a different person, his expression icy. "Was it fun making a fool of me?"
Nan Ling changes her tune in an instant: "Sniffle, sniffle, Immortal Lord, you're so scary."
Qing Jue doesn't bat an eye as he restrains Nan Ling. "Don't rush. Come back to my palace, and I'll let you sniffle all you want."
"..."
The white lotus doesn't want to sniffle, sniffle.
