Su Wanning has been Marquis Gu Zhaonian's personal maid for seven years, from her teenage years to womanhood. She poured all her affection into the ginger tea brewed for hours, the fox fur sewn late at night, and even saved three months' wages to buy his favorite pine soot ink. But Gu Zhaonian was always cold—he gave the ginger tea to guards, called the fur "too gaudy" and tucked it away, and even when she handed him the ink, he was reading urgent border reports. Until the emperor's betrothed, a lady in moon-white silk, arrived. As Su Wanning packed to leave, Gu Zhaonian grabbed her wrist, his knuckles white: "Where are you going?" She smiled and pulled back: "My lord, I'm tired of waiting for someone who doesn't understand romance." Little did she know, under Gu Zhaonian's pillow lay her unsent love poem from last birthday, and a border letter: "If I survive, I'll ask to marry her." His "unromantic" was just fear of not being able to protect her.
