Ming Quan has been put under a terrible curse, one that will claim his life after seven days of suffering. There is only one way to escape this fate, and that is to be mated to a beast of the Silver Serpent Clan. The cold and aloof Yin Xue is just such a beast and has been under the service of the prestigious Ming family for millennia. If ordered, he will have no choice but to take the young master of the Ming household as his mate.

But refusing to take advantage of Yin Xue in such a way even for the sake of saving himself, Ming Quan instead prepares to live a leisurely life until his death. However, as Yin Xue takes care of Ming Quan during his final days, will the frost in his heart finally melt?
