The Warm Sun Under the Buddha's Glow

share time: 2026-02-15 06:07:07

Lin Xiaoman, an advertiser crushed by workplace PUA, flees to the remote Fuguang Temple as a volunteer, only to meet A Jue—the temple keeper who’s even “harder to handle” than the meditating Buddha. He forbids her from making Douyin videos to “attract traffic,” yet always leaves a cup of osmanthus tea, perfectly warmed, on her desk when she stays up late revising plans. It’s not until Xiaoman spots the limited-edition watch under his rough cloth robe that she uncovers his secret—he’s a rich second-generation who abandoned billions to run away from his family. And A Jue has long seen through her: she claims to “lie flat,” but is actually terrified of “even crying on a schedule.” When Xiaoman’s boss chases her to the temple gate with a layoff notice, and A Jue’s father blocks the mountain road holding a share transfer document, can these two “cowards” hiding under the Buddha’s glow catch the “warm sun” each offers?
