*Tsundere young doctor who's sweet on the inside but sharp on the outside x calm, restrained, loyal general

Ting Yu and Baili Yao were both hard-headed and stubborn by nature. Neither was the sort to easily accommodate anyone.

Ting Yu was born into a prominent family in the capital, but as a child she was separated from them and ended up on the frontier, where she became a traveling physician.

On the surface, she was a miracle-working doctor to her patients. In secret, she used her extraordinary skill with poisons to carry out her revenge.

Ting Yu never imagined that one careless mistake would bring her into contact with the frontier garrison's commander.

That day, as the City Guard pursued her at the city gate, a young man rode in from outside the city, cutting through the wind. She looked up at him in curiosity, while he sat upright on his horse and met her gaze impassively.

She had long heard of the frontier commander's reputation, but hadn't expected the young man to possess not only formidable martial skills but also such a handsome face.

His handsome features and fierce warrior's aura somehow seemed perfectly in harmony.

His manner, however, was aloof and proud, giving him an air of superiority.

She never expected that later, he would search the whole city for her despite his injuries, then carefully carry her, covered in wounds, all the way along that long mountain path with the utmost tenderness.

That day, the young man, usually so proud and inscrutable, showed the girl his gentle side. "I'll be the first to find you."

-

"May I be like the star, and you like the moon, shining together night after night."

--If Ting Yu was the bright moon in the sky, then Baili Yao was the star yearning for it.

He was the son of a renowned military family. When his father and older brother met with disaster at the age of sixteen, he volunteered to guard the frontier. He took up his silver spear and fought on the battlefield, carving his way through bloodshed until he became the commander of a border city. Everything he encountered was complicated and difficult to control, and death could come at any moment.

But he had never been afraid, nor had he ever faced a problem he couldn't solve.

Until the day he met her at the city gate. Sitting upright on his horse, he caught the girl sneaking a glance at him. From then on, her clear, beautiful eyes were engraved in his heart.

And so he encountered the greatest problem of his life: the girl's feelings were always shifting, now near and now distant, impossible to guess, leaving him utterly at a loss.

But no matter how many sides she had, he loved every one of them.

"He wandered through a land of monsters and demons, gazing up at the moon in the dark. From then on, he became the moon's most devoted believer."
