Zhu Yu was a little blade of grass on Zhaoyao Mountain. A gentle immortal lord carefully watered her for a hundred years, but she still didn't bloom. Then one day, a bolt of heavenly lightning struck her, and at last she awakened into an immortal.
Before she was knocked unconscious by the lightning, Zhu Yu thought that she had to find her benefactor and repay him by serving him hand and foot.
But when she opened her eyes, she found herself in a lavish bed, with a half-naked man lying beside her.
It was her benefactor.
Zhu Yu trembled like a leaf. She... she... When had she slept with her benefactor?!
Zhu Yu! You really have some nerve!
You were going to make your benefactor serve you hand and foot? That's how you repay him?!
*
A bolt of heavenly lightning sent Zhu Yu three thousand years into the future. She discovered that not only had she become a great demon lord hated by the whole world, she had also forced herself on her benefactor, the immortal lord.
The benefactor in bed was nothing like the gentle man she remembered. He looked lazily and impatiently at the dazed Zhu Yu and urged her with deep resentment: "Are you going to hurry up or not?"
Poor little flower Zhu Yu had only just become human, and she could barely walk. How could she possibly understand the ways of love?
Trembling, she helped untie the bindings around her benefactor's wrists and whimpered, "I'm not feeling well today. I promise I'll do it next time."
Her benefactor glanced at her. Hearing her lame excuse, his expression turned even sourer. He got dressed, rubbed his wrists, and left.
He wanted it, but she couldn't satisfy him. Zhu Yu felt like the sky was falling.
Her image of her benefactor had crumbled, and so had her own sense of decency.
Thinking that she couldn't leave her benefactor unhappy, Zhu Yu chased after him, only to see a little carrot-headed child clinging to his leg and calling him "Daddy" with adoration.
It felt like a blow to the head. It was bad enough that she'd forced herself on her benefactor, but had she even had a child with him?!
When she asked how old the little carrot-headed child was, the answer was six hundred.
Zhu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Good, the child wasn't hers. She wasn't even six hundred years old herself.
But then her benefactor glanced at her coolly and handed the little child to her. "The child missed you."
Zhu Yu stammered, "M-my child?!"
Her benefactor replied blandly, "Whose else would it be?"
Zhu Yu's face turned ashen. Not only had she forced herself on her benefactor, she had also had a child with someone else behind his back?
Zhu Yu secretly vowed that since her benefactor had suffered so much and was still willing to stay by her side, she would treat him better.
