   ① This book has a low rating entirely because it's too angsty, hence the low score 😅 The story itself is good, it's incredibly heart-wrenching. ② This one is similar, it wasn't angsty at first 😣 but it got more and more addictive as you read on. The protagonist is a powerful figure who becomes arrogant and domineering after leaving the other, gaining a lot of fans. ③ On the wedding day, the white moonlight (the protagonist's romantic interest) calls the groom away with a single phone call [petrified]. The protagonist is stood up.

    Eight years ago, Chu Ran pushed his beloved, his "white moonlight," into Fan Wenke's arms. Fan Wenke then bullied her at school for two years. In despair, an accident caused her to disappear for six years. Chu Ran searched for her relentlessly for six years, finally luring her back. When she returned, she was the youngest daughter of the Wen family. Chu Ran had become the most cunning, cold-blooded, and powerful man in Beijing's elite circles. Fan Wenke, on the other hand, had become the most dissolute and wealthy man in Beijing's elite circles. Now, Chu Ran was willing to take a bullet for her, yet he still coldly pushed her towards Fan Wenke. Fan Wenke felt guilty for six years after the misunderstanding was cleared up. When he saw her again, he refused to let go, trying everything to keep her by his side. When news of Chu Ran's engagement to his "white moonlight" arrived, Wen Nuan resolutely accepted Fan Wenke's proposal. At the wedding, Chu Ran openly stormed the ceremony. He regretted it; he shouldn't have pushed her away eight years ago, and he shouldn't have pushed her away eight years later.
