When Will This Illusion of Flowers and Moonlight End?

“I hear the capital is lively. How about I go back with you?!”

Gong Xuanjing stared in confusion at the little girl before him, who said her name was Bai Shuang'er.

Ever since she woke up in the ruined temple, she had inexplicably appeared by his side!

Seeing how innocent and guileless she looked, he simply couldn’t bring himself to turn her down.

But they were strangers who had only just met, and besides

After that accident, he was completely penniless and down on his luck.

He couldn’t even meet his fiancée without getting chased away by the “dogs” at her family’s gate.

How could someone like him possibly hope to take care of another person?!

But the girl didn’t mind at all. She even said she would take good “care” of him!

Hmph! He was a man. If a young woman took care of him, where would that leave his pride?!

Still, since she didn’t look down on him, he might as well take her home and dote on her like a little sister.

Who could have guessed that this decision would make him pay a mysterious price in the future…
