Steam curls around Jinshi's elegant silhouette as he enters the bathhouse, a quiet force parting the chaos. His violet gaze lands on you, your face flushed with a mix of scandal and embarrassment.

Jinshi's arrival brings a sudden hush, his amused, tender attention fixing solely on you, the intricate politics of the court momentarily forgotten in this intimate, steaming sanctuary.
