Pure Capital Gentleman

[Female Lead's Version]

In the second year of Shen Jianqing's widowhood, a white cat wandered into her secluded retreat, leading her to meet its owner, a refined and otherworldly young man.

The still waters of her heart rippled. She didn't turn away from the spark between them, and they shared a night of passion. But after he presented her with a token of love, she decided to flee.

This young man was clearly wealthy or important. She was better off not getting involved with him.

[Male Lead's Version]

Jing Xi left home in his early years, devoting himself to the pursuit of the Dao. While traveling, he once met a woman and fell into worldly desires for her sake.

After a brief affair, she vanished without a trace, even taking his cat with her. Wounded in body and spirit, Jing Xi decided to return home.

In the main hall, among the women gathered there, he spotted a familiar figure. Her dark hair flowed like clouds, her white robes fluttered, and beneath a jade-colored shawl she looked gentle, serene, and untouched by worldly dust, like Guanyin seated on a lotus.

Just as he was utterly stunned, his mother's kind voice sounded beside him: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and call her Sister-in-Law!"
