Lin Wu was the youngest daughter of a marquis's family in the Moren Empire. Born to privilege and blessed with striking looks, she should have had the perfect rich-and-beautiful-girl life. Unfortunately, she had an even more exceptional older sister, Lin Yue. Her parents, relatives, friends, and even Lin Wu's fiance all had eyes only for her sister.
They all said Lin Wu was sickly, stupid, and foul-minded, though at least she looked somewhat like her sister.
Many noblemen fell for her sister, only to be rejected one after another.
The Lin family wanted to please those men but couldn't bear to let Lin Yue suffer. So Lin Wu, who resembled Lin Yue, came in handy.
Powerful men couldn't bear to mistreat their beloved, unattainable white moonlight, but Lin Wu, her stand-in, was another matter...
They were both daughters of a marquis, but Lin Yue was the moon in the heavens, forever beyond their reach, while Lin Wu was a lowly substitute they settled for.
They used her, then sneered at her.
But now, all was well. Lin Wu was dead.
Lin Wu thought it was a good thing she had died. She had never amounted to much in life, and for twenty short years, other people had controlled her. Death had set her free.
But to her surprise, after she died, the men who had once despised and loathed her went mad.
They came to Lin Wu's grave, weeping and wailing as they professed their love. They fought over her grave, wishing they could dig up her bones and kiss and lick them.
And, to her surprise, someone actually did just that…
Even more unexpectedly, through a twist of fate, she came back to life and became the empire's most revered Grand Princess?
