    This book is about a female protagonist who awakens her consciousness and becomes a substitute for six powerful men who are their common "white moonlight" (signing an agreement, not selling herself, but making a lot of money!). The pacing is fast. Between chapters 3 and 40, the "white moonlight" returns to the country, and the female protagonist quickly (acts) (deceives) and meets the contract deadline with the five publicly known powerful men. With a lot of money, she'll open a shop on ChangX Street and one day dominate the street! (She'll recruit underlings as her boss.) (One of her underlings seems to be her sixth sugar daddy, but he hasn't been revealed yet. However, the female lead knows this underling has a close relationship with her white moonlight and feels he has ulterior motives, so she breaks ties with him.) The female lead, Jiang Wangyou, only talks about money, not feelings. Her stand-in scenes are decent. [Thumbs up] Recent chapters suggest the female lead is about to be recognized by her two blood-related older sisters (who, for now, seem to be very fond of her) and brought back into the wealthy family. (The white moonlight isn't kind; he subtly and overtly bullies the female lead and even causes her to have allergic reactions twice. Is this a bit BL or LC?)

    The first book in the "Substitute Literature" series was really good; you can tell from the title that it's still being serialized. I'm currently following it and highly recommend it. The female lead isn't a saint and doesn't fall in love easily; she has a good grasp of the character. I don't remember the other two books very well.
