Male character who grew up with Jiang Xia. His father was a former official who was stripped of his position and reassigned to a farm. Lu Yuanting is quiet and rough around the edges, and has always liked Jiang Xia. Years ago, he saved her from human traffickers by biting the trafficker's hand until it bled. He carried Jiang Xia to the hospital with a bloody gash on his chest, stayed by her side until the doctor said she was safe, and only then treated his own wounds. Rumors claimed he looked too fierce, had a temper, and would never be gentle with a wife. Jiang Xia's parents trusted him despite these rumors.
