Background
Bai Piaopiao first meets Yi Feng at a mountain inn while accompanied by Maomao. Though accustomed to praise from cultivators, she is struck by Yi Feng's indifference to her beauty, his frank admission that he finds her attractive, and his insistence on proper boundaries. His manners, poetry, and cooking leave a lasting impression on her. 37 38
She is deeply invested in literature and searches for the author of Dream of the Red Chamber and Supreme Treasure. Before learning that Yi Feng is the author, she considers him a kindred spirit whose poems complement—not replace—her admiration for the books. 130 678
