Synopsis:

【1】
Ten years ago, Shen Xiling, whose family had been destroyed, knelt at Qi Jingchen’s doorstep, begging for mercy. Qi Jingchen didn’t care for her pleas and only reluctantly let her in after she fainted on his doorstep.

Who would have thought that ten years later, Qi Jingchen would love her with all his heart—only by then, Shen Xiling had already become another man’s wife.

【2】
Shen Xiling was once like the delicate golden thread grass that grew beside Qi Jingchen—he gave her life, education, and even love.

She used to believe this man was invincible, until the day disaster struck and she watched with her own eyes as Qi Jingchen fell from grace. Even then, he did everything he could to protect her, and in the end, he personally sent her to shelter under another man’s wings.

Ten years later, they meet again—now separated by a fractured land and a tangled web of marriages and fate. But this time, it’s Shen Xiling who raises the lotus leaf high to shield from the storm the man who once cherished her like a treasure.

When peace returns to the land, you and I shall watch the Wind and Lotus Rise together.

Reader Notes:

1. 1v1, SC (single couple), HE (happy ending);
   Cold on the outside but passionate within, a stunningly handsome and deeply devoted warlord ×
   A fallen noblewoman whose beauty rivals the male lead’s, growing from soft and gentle to strong and independent.
   (They’re both madly obsessed with each other.)
2. The female lead has a long character development arc — a soft girl in the beginning, a powerful heroine later (possibly with a bit of a “raised by ML” vibe).
3. Some parts of the story are told in flashbacks. At the beginning of the flashbacks, the female lead is already married (possibly a marriage of convenience)—those who mind, proceed with caution.
4. Set in a fictional world — very loosely based.
5. Includes some “plastic” (i.e., superficial/fake) political intrigue and love affairs. Multiple CPs warning.

One-Line Summary:
A powerful warlord in chaotic times × A stunningly beautiful orphaned girl

Theme:
To love one person is to love the world. Grow together, face storms hand in hand.
