[Seemingly Sweet and Obedient vs. Truly Unhinged]
Sui Zhang shares a deep, tangled connection with one man: Xie Hui, the young master of Yingchuan whom she met as a girl.
A junior tutor, Xie Hui is a brilliant writer, a dazzling talent, and a scion of the prestigious Yingchuan clan. He is a peerless prodigy among the younger generation of both the Xie family and the Ping Dynasty.
By all appearances, he is like a bright moon, high above and beyond anyone’s reach.
After Zheng Suizhang’s beloved grandmother falls ill, she is sent to the Xie family. Desperate for protection, she boldly reaches for that distant moon.
The moon is pure and flawless, but Xie Hui is no moon. How could he be without feelings or desire?
She tempts and coaxes him until he falls helplessly into love, unable to live or die without her.
She values him less than a grain of millet, then casts him aside like an old shoe.
When he is no longer useful, she abandons him and turns around to marry someone else.
In the end, however, she pays for her coldhearted cruelty with a miserable death.
Reborn, she puts aside her ambition for fame and fortune. She neither wants nor dares to claim that lofty position again.
All she wants is to stay far away from him, farther and farther away. But fate has other plans...
