Everyone in the capital says that the Third Prince, Pei Ye, is cursed by fate and destined to be alone. He bears an extraordinarily ugly scar on his face and kills without blinking. Anyone who looks at him is said to die. Yet Ban Rui, the granddaughter of the Imperial Medical Academy's director, unexpectedly finds herself caught in his icy gaze. She doesn't run away. Instead, she tells him, "I will heal your scar." He responds with complete seriousness, "Now that you've seen it, you must take responsibility for me." She thought he was a demon from the depths of hell, but little did she know that in this lifetime, he fears neither Heaven, Earth, nor death. The only thing he fears is that she might run away.
