Lin Zeng used to be a flower spirit.
He got into trouble in the spirit realm. After sneaking a drink of the fruit wine his family had brewed, he...
accidentally kissed a powerful demon.
The big demon's black wings flapped a few times, then he closed his eyes and fainted. Afraid of being punished, Lin Zeng packed his things and fled to the human world that very night.

Lin Zeng has been feeling troubled lately. He doesn't want to return to the spirit realm.
He's fallen for someone in the human world.
That person is the owner of the bar next door. Though he's always cold and indifferent, pays no attention to the flowers Lin Zeng gives him, and even looks a little like the demon who once scared him, Lin Zeng just can't help liking him.
A friend advises him to take the man by force.
So one dark, windy night, after a few drinks, Lin Zeng bravely approaches him.
"Boss Yun, I... I want to kiss you."
In the darkness, the man says nothing and doesn't move, but somehow seems angry.
Lin Zeng cautiously kisses his eyebrow, then the tip of his nose, and finally his lips.
"You!"
Before he can finish speaking, Boss Yun widens his eyes and faints.
Lin Zeng pouts, embarrassed and remorseful, and holds back his tears. He thinks, "Boss Yun really doesn't like me."

With his heart turned to ashes, Lin Zeng returns to the spirit realm. Before he can recover from his heartbreak, the Demon King comes to take a bride. Lin Zeng wants no part of it, but the Demon King insists on seeing him, making it clear in every word that he intends to marry him.
Lin Zeng would rather die than give in, but he can't resist the elders of the demon clan, who force him to put on a wedding dress the very next day.
On his wedding night, Lin Zeng hides beneath the red veil and secretly cries. He cries until the bridal chamber fills with the scent of flowers, then falls asleep, trembling.
When he wakes, he falls into a familiar pair of eyes.
"B-B-Boss Yun?"
The little flower spirit looks at the handsome man before him, with his striking face and pair of black wings. A tear trembles at the corner of his eye and rolls onto his lips.
Bonus scene:
Yun Cang, who faints whenever he's kissed (steadily gets back to his feet) (watches the little flower spirit) (the little flower spirit runs away) (follows him to the human world to watch him) (gets kissed and faints again): "How strange. Kiss me again. :)"
1. The love interest is allergic to flower pollen. Every time he's kissed, he refuses to admit defeat, then faints.
2. A beautiful but slow-witted, taciturn little flower spirit x a cold-faced, arrogant Demon King who faints whenever he's kissed.
