Before her grandfather, who had raised her alone for years, passed away, he told Song Tian to go to the city and look for an Uncle Shen.
Years ago, Uncle Shen had been saved by her grandfather in an accident. He had vowed to repay the life debt, left them a token, and promised that if the Song family ever ran into trouble, they could come find him in the imperial capital.
So Song Tian traded her short jacket for a cotton dress, knelt at her grandfather's grave, and bowed three times. Then, carrying the token, she set off alone for the imperial capital.
It was her first time in the city, and the towering buildings left Song Tian stunned. Fortunately, when Uncle Shen heard she was his savior's granddaughter, he welcomed her warmly and asked his own son to look after her and keep her company.
The young master of the Shen family, Shen Yufeng, looked down on this scrawny country girl who seemed too weak to lift a finger. In private, he warned her, “Stay away from me at school. Whatever you do, don't let anyone know we know each other.”
The small girl nodded, still innocent and a little confused. She decided not to cause Uncle Shen's family any trouble. “Oh.”
The young master raised an eyebrow. “And don't fall for me, got it?”
“...Oh.”
One day, the leader of a rival school's gang came looking for trouble. Shen Yufeng led a huge group of people out to face them.
After three hundred rounds, Shen Yufeng was defeated. The young master, who had always been so proud he seemed to have his head in the clouds, was humiliated and left with his reputation in tatters for the first time.
At the critical moment, a tiny girl came flying in with a kick, sending the gang leader sprawling. She stepped in front of Shen Yufeng and shouted, “Let's see who dares bully him!”
Shen Yufeng: ...?!

As the thirty-eighth-generation heir and sole practitioner of the Song family's martial arts school in Yongan Town, Song Tian had been taught from childhood that martial artists must cultivate themselves and never abuse their strength or use martial arts to bully others.
Song Tian knew her family's rules by heart. She had never shown off her skills in public.
One day after the gang leader incident, Shen Yufeng brought a group of people before her. Each one held three sticks of incense. “Take us as your disciples, Master!”
Song Tian: “...”
Even more shocking, one day Song Tian accidentally saw Shen Yufeng corner his little disciples against a wall. His face red, he made them say, “I'm telling you, my generation is different from yours now. Call me Master’s husband.”
Song Tian: “…”

- When you arrived, the clouds were light and the breeze was sweet.
