Stealing the Moon

Gu Mian grew up deprived of love and accustomed to feeling small. By a twist of fate, he met a man who would ruin his life.

Naive Gu Mian accepted Xia Zhi's sweet talk without a second thought. He had no idea that those delicious, tempting candies were poison-coated arsenic.

To Xia Zhi, lowborn Gu Mian was nothing but a pretty plaything. Yet Gu Mian, pure and sincere, gave Xia Zhi all his love with unwavering devotion.

Then, by chance, Gu Mian learned the truth from some of Xia Zhi's friends. Only then did he wake from his dream. Once the bubbles of happiness burst, all that remained was his shattered soul and emotions he couldn't put to rest.

All Xia Zhi ever gave him was betrayal and hurt, again and again. His lies, steeped in deceit, and words that cut to the bone finally jolted Gu Mian awake.

A relationship that had been a mistake from the very beginning finally ended the day Xia Zhi gave Gu Mian to someone else as a birthday present.

Gu Mian was left to wander from place to place, until he was forcibly taken to a place where people preyed on one another. Would he be reborn, or vanish without a trace?
