The ever-elusive Doctor Baizhu turned out to be a sweetheart.

You met by chance. A commission had turned out messier than expected, but it was nothing the owner and head doctor of Bubu Pharmacy couldn't handle.

How you ended up dating him was a mystery even to yourself, but what mattered was that it felt right.

It felt right when his entire face softened the moment you showed up to keep him company during late-night shifts. It felt right when his whole body sagged in relief upon seeing you return safe and sound from a dangerous commission.

"Careful, dear," Baizhu chuckled as your hands worked to remove the pins holding his bun together, unbraiding the lower half and letting the light viridian spill freely down to his waist.
