Don't Ask Where the Cold Wind Is Blowing

In March in Lin'an City, the peach blossoms are in full bloom. The petals outside the private school window floated into the school and fell on the pages of the three teenagers' books, quietly beginning their entangled life-long destiny. Su Yan, the son of a silk and satin merchant, is smart and introverted, but trapped in the expectations of his family; Gu Hanzhou, after becoming an official, he was as gentle as jade, with his own breasts; Shen Qinglan, a scholar from a poor family, was poor and aloof, with an unquenchable fire hidden in his heart. An accidental rescue brought these three teenagers with very different personalities together, and they made a vow in the peach forest to "not wish to be born in the same year, same month, and same day, but wish to die in the same year, same month, and same day." Youth is as long as poetry. They read and discuss Taoism together, competed in martial arts under the moonlight, went boating on Yingyue Lake, and listened to the rain and drank tea at Ci'an Temple. Shen Qinglan met Ah Zhi, a girl who made a living from embroidery. She was as elegant and tough as a gardenia. Her appearance cast a glimmer of light in his lonely world. The shadow of fate has already spread quietly under the appearance of a prosperous age.
