Yun Shu, an overworked researcher at the Immortal Realm’s medicine lab, had been assigned to the mortal world for five years. On the final full-moon night, she was just about to teleport back to the Immortal Palace and clock out when a disgraced duke crashed into the pond with her. Her teleportation jade shattered, her moonlight immortal robe was torn, and five years of hard work nearly went to waste. Want compensation? Fine. Get me the finest silkworm eggs, a private mulberry grove, and a complete set of looms. Want to protect your reputation? I could use a marriage alliance as a cover, so the Duke of the Nation and the mysterious “amnesiac orphan girl” signed a fake marriage contract, each getting what they wanted. But the act of being a contractual couple grew more and more real. He shielded her from open and covert attacks at court and spent lavishly to build her a moonlight silk industry. When he was poisoned, she tested the medicine with a kiss, and when he was on the verge of death, she used her unique medical skills to drag him back from the brink. At last, when she had woven a robe for her journey home and stepped across the water beneath the full moon, he insisted on defying the iron laws between worlds and chased her straight into the temporal turbulence. “I’m mortal, but I’m still going to find you.” 🔥 Making money in the mortal realm × fake marriage, real affection × chasing his wife across the stars From a country estate to the far shore of the galaxy, he spent ninety-five years proving that falling in love with her was the one investment whose returns he never needed to calculate.
