The Moon Above the Eaves

[Rebirth + Revenge + Pseudo-Siblings + Mutual Devotion]

[Gentle on the outside, strong within, calm and composed Dr. Xie] × [Heaven’s favorite, spirited and dashing Young General Xie]

As the flames of Saibei consumed her, Xie Mingyue was reborn, back in the early spring of the year she turned fourteen, at her mother’s funeral hall.

In her previous life, she had used herself as bait to poison her enemies. They were still alive, but her country had fallen and her family was destroyed. In the end, she died a miserable death in a foreign land.

This time, armed with the advantage of knowing what was to come, she navigates the whirlpool of power as a humble young doctor, plotting at every turn and calculating every move.

She enters the marquis’s residence, stockpiles medicinal herbs, and takes on the Crown Prince… She steps into the game herself, treading as carefully as if on thin ice. Her only purpose is to avenge her wrongfully killed parents and protect her homeland and those who come after her.

She lives, but across two lifetimes, she has never lived for herself.

The eldest son of the Xie family is noble and untroubled, with an open heart, like an immortal who has fallen into the mortal world. She had no interest in romance, yet somehow ended up owing him a debt of affection.

But A Wu was right. A good match is hard to find, and perhaps a life like this isn’t so bad after all.

She never expected that on a dark, windy night, Young General Xie would return in triumph, race through the night, and barge into her little pharmacy, trapping her inside as he pleaded with red-rimmed eyes.

“Stop liking my big brother. He’s not right for you.”

“Like me instead. I met you first, after all.”

Looking into those eyes, Xie Mingyue thought that perhaps life could be more than this.
