The Moon in Second Master Shen's Palm

Everyone in the city knew that Shen Yucheng, the second master of the powerful Shen family, carried an unattainable moon in his heart. He was cool, proud, and kept his distance from women.

No one knew that this moon was Lin Wanxing, the former girlfriend of his late nephew.

Seven years ago, in a hospital corridor, he saw the girl clasping his nephew’s hand, her gaze steadfast and tender. The shock of that moment turned all his later romantic affairs into mere compromises.

He protected her in silence, patiently waiting for her to grow up and move on from her grief. Then, at a business banquet, she got drunk and fell into his arms.

The next morning, she woke in the master bedroom of his luxurious mansion, with his handsome sleeping face beside her. She tried to flee in terror, but the man opened his eyes calmly, crushed out his cigarette, and looked at her with eyes as deep as the sea. “My girl, you’ve finally… grown up.”

It wasn’t a coincidence. He had been carefully plotting to draw closer to her for a long time. When the whole world accused him of coveting a younger woman and being cold-blooded, he shielded her and stood against every storm.

He once ran his fingers over the old scars left by her struggles to make a living, his eyes reddening and his voice hoarse. “Lin Wanxing, do you know how much it hurt to wait for you to grow up?”

As it turned out, every reunion after a long separation was a carefully planned destiny. Second Master Shen loved her with his whole life. It wasn’t a passing fancy: he had spent his entire youth waiting for the right to embrace her.
