Beneath the High Platform

In the eyes of outsiders, Ying Xue isn't a good person.

At the height of Lin Zheng's power, she used every trick she had to get close to him and become his woman. She basked in the money, fame, and status he gave her, triumphantly crushing everyone who had looked down on her. When he sacrificed everything for her, only to fall from power and into disgrace, Ying Xue smiled. "Don't put yourself on a pedestal. You're going to fall. Someone as good as you should be just as bad as me." To everyone else, Lin Zheng had been the moon in the sky, beautiful but untouchable. But after meeting Ying Xue, he found himself caught in the storm, covered in mud.

From then on, the moon in the sky became the moon reflected in water, and the one he loved became the one who betrayed him.
