Si Fan (The Devil in A Flowering Nun)

Sent in childhood to a temple by her parents, Sekong has grown into a Buddhist nun. She has lately been brooding with increasing intensity over what she has come to view as the arid life of a Buddhist nun. Being left alone one day in her present dark mood, she resolves to leave the temple permanently to resume a secular life which she intends to live fully as a woman. So decided, she promptly discards her ecclesiastic robes and flees away down the mountain to fetch herself a sweetheart.

Xia Shan (Fleeing Down the Mountain)

As they talk they find that they share a desire to resume a secular life. In the end they fall in love and marry each other.
