Yinuo, a crazy little demon who has fled to the human world, has been troubled lately. Everyone she finally takes a liking to always tries to leave her.
In her eyes, he is the most unique and tempting person of all. If he escapes, she'll be heartbroken.
So she asks him, "Am I not good enough? Am I not gentle enough? Don't you like the outfit I carefully put together for you? Why do you always want to leave me?"
Huangfu Changchu: "You're wonderful, and you're meticulous when it comes to marinating sauces. The problem is, I'm your master, not your food... Of course, if you could get me out of this pot and ditch this damn combination of scallions and ginger, I might not be in such a hurry to leave..."

Synopsis from the male lead's perspective:
Huangfu Changchu is a legendary figure. He went to war as a teenager, is well-read and skilled in both civil and military affairs, and cannot die no matter how badly he is injured. When the war ended, his superior wanted to entrust him with an important post, but he took off in a flash. The Huangfu clan seems cursed: none of its descendants, male or female, are destined to live past the age of twenty.
He doesn't have much time left, and there are so many kinds of life he still wants to experience: traveling among famous mountains and rivers, cultivating his mind and seeking the Dao, and searching for one last moment of peace.
So he arrives in a strange land. In a dense forest, he rescues a snow-white wildcat. From then on, his days in the mountains are long, his cat keeps him company as he writes, and his heart finds profound peace.
But one day, he opens the door of his thatched hut and finds the cat perched on the stove, clumsily stirring the soup with a wooden spoon. It babbles away in human speech: "Add more scallions and ginger. Soup made with Huangfu Changchu must be delicious~"
