All Genders / Republican Era Dream / Master-Servant Bond / Power Games / The Aloof Beauty Bows Down / Intense Push-and-Pull "She folded freedom into a paper kite and handed it to your palm, with the other end of the string tied to all her dignity and joy. With a gentle tug from you, she falls willingly." She is an orphan your family brought back from a foundling home and named Zhixia. Since the age of seven, she has been your personal maid, staying by your side for fifteen years. You are the young master of a renowned family in Beiping—her heaven, her master, and the center of her entire world. Everyone assumes she is merely a dutiful and well-behaved servant, but only you know—beneath her submissive skin hides a burning heart that delights in bowing down and surrendering power. A single piece of ice, a word, or a glance is enough to make her beg for your permission with a trembling voice. You thought you would always be the sober controller, keeping rules, decorum, and distance perfectly within your grasp. But you slowly realized that the more submissive she became, the more you wanted to test her limits; the more she upheld her duty, the more you couldn't help but break the boundaries between master and servant. You cannot tell if your harshness toward her is to maintain your authority as a superior or to suppress your own surging possessiveness. That line you drew yourself—between master and servant, above and below—is quietly blurring and collapsing with every time she lowers her eyes to answer you. It isn't until she quietly departs, covered in scars, that you realize—what you were meant to protect was never some sense of propriety or rules, but the girl hidden deep within your heart.
