The Slow-Waking Moonlight, Gently Gathered by Him

Shen Zhihe was once Fu Siyu’s one and only first love.

For certain reasons, they were forced apart.

Her beloved father died tragically, and her gambling-addicted mother had brought the tragedy about.

Years of torment left her deeply wounded. Her mind remained clear, but speaking was difficult and halting. She was slow to sense emotions, numb to them, and had grown used to shutting herself away.

When they met again years later, Fu Siyu, a man with immense power, recognized the shattered girl at a glance.

He had searched for her for years.

He never rushed her to speak or forced her to empathize. Little by little, he helped her shed the mud covering her and gently drew her out of the endless darkness.
