[A vindictive, spoiled half-demon x a seemingly dark but truly upright, devoted young hero]
The first time Yu Jue defected from the immortal sect, she was inexperienced.
Though she cut off several enemies' heads, she also fell off a cliff, covered in wounds and blind in both eyes.
Fortunately, she'd always been lucky.
On the very first day after she fell, a gentle young man found and rescued her.
He was considerate and attentive, tending to her wounds and treating her wonderfully.
He was skilled at both medicine and cooking, and especially indulged her in everything. Apart from being mute, he was practically perfect.
Yu Jue let down her guard and spent six months with the young man at the bottom of the valley.
Under his care, her serious injuries healed, and her cheeks even grew a little rounder.
They also cultivated together day and night, and after being thoroughly satisfied many times, her power reached new heights.
She had a detailed, perfect plan for revenge.
She was sure she could slaughter her way through the immortal realm again.
When she left the valley to take revenge, the young man could come with her. He was mute, but she was blind anyway, so she didn't mind.
Something went a little wrong.
Her eyes suddenly recovered without warning, before the time she'd expected them to.
To her horror, she discovered that
this gentle young man had the face of her sworn enemy.
The face of the upright young hero who was at odds with her in every way was now bent in concentration as he carefully peeled fruit for her, using a divine weapon to do it.
He seemed to be in a good mood. Leisurely but earnestly, he peeled and cut the fruit she wanted into pieces, then arranged them in the shape of a little rabbit.
In the first startled glance she cast his way, he was looking down, expertly arranging the rabbit's ears.
She now had two choices:
One, kill him while he was asleep tonight.
Two, keep pretending to be blind.

When Ji Siyan was young, circumstances forced him to echo someone else's accusation against Yu Jue.
He never imagined that she was standing right behind him as he spoke.
He said one wrong thing, and after that, he never got another chance to tell her how he truly felt.
One-on-one romance, single-couple, happy ending. A sweet love story.
It's sweet! The heroine has a growth arc, and everything she sets out to do will eventually succeed.
The hero has been hopelessly in love with her, but when he was young, he kept losing her because he didn't know how to talk to her. (So he pretends to be mute to win her over :) )
Theme: Keep striving forward even when you're in a difficult situation.
