PS: I'm a fan of traditional Chinese medicine, not a practitioner. I found all the professional terminology in this book through online searches. Those in the field, please take it with a smile and don't scrutinize it too closely. Thank you.
A little scene with the hero and heroine:
The first time they met, she saved him and gave him a kick for good measure.
The second time, he saved her but left without giving his name.
The third time, they met as landlord and tenant.
Leaning against the wall, he smiled with innocent cunning. "Time to pay the rent."
She handed him a thick wad of cash. "Keep the change."
He curled his lips into a smile and leaned closer, his warm breath brushing against her. "Not enough, not enough."
By the fourth time they met, they were on opposite sides.
His expression was icy, his aura cold and sharp, as if he were someone else entirely.
Her heart twisted with pain, but she still smiled proudly. "Xiao Ziteng, we owe each other nothing!"
She turned and walked away, tilting her head up as she struggled to hold back her tears.
So she didn't see his heartbroken smile or the struggle in his eyes.
The fifth time they met, she saved his mother and learned about his past. Her hands and feet turned cold.
"Why? Why didn't you ever tell me...?"
He smiled. "I could bear the hardship alone. Why make you suffer too?"
Before he could finish, she had already thrown her arms around him.
Yes, a happy ending. I wrote a few angsty parts, but the story is actually not angsty at all. He absolutely dotes on her, truly!
Look at my innocent little eyes
