[Free-spirited, beautiful, strong, and tragic × Pretends to be a gentle soul but is really an obsessive white moonlight] (Win their heart, win the game.)
Everyone knows that Long Yan is the most powerful attack dog serving the new emperor. As the head of the emperor’s secret guards, he makes no attempt to hide his actions and is brazen to a fault. He carries out raids and banishments with ease, and is just as adept at taking heads.
The powerful families in the capital can hardly sleep or eat, all hoping to get rid of him as soon as possible. Unfortunately, this commander has the emperor backing him at court, while a martial world organization protects him in secret. His luck is simply absurd.
Only Long Yan knows that he has spent his whole life walking on thin ice. Whenever a dispute breaks out at court, he has to be the first to face it. Whenever chaos erupts among the martial arts sects, he has to take charge and return to being the senior disciple.
One slip, and everything can come crashing down. Then he has to start over and fight his way back to the top.
He can’t take another day of this!
So he starts gathering gold and silver while preparing to fake his death and make a clean getaway.
His plan accounts for his political enemies and his “old friend.” The only thing missing is a witness who sees with their own eyes that he is dead beyond doubt.
Once everything is ready, Long Yan shamelessly goes to his junior brother as usual and begs him to cover for him, looking utterly pitiful.
“Dear junior brother, someone at court is giving your senior brother a hard time again. Will you help keep them off my back?”
Song Yu sighs, still stepping in front of him with his blade raised. “When this is over, can you come back and spend more time with me, Senior Brother?”
Having just lied through his teeth and prepared to fake his death, Long Yan nods guiltily. “Of course. I promise.”
The plan works even better than he imagined.
By the time Song Yu arrives at the cliff, covered in wounds, he can do nothing to stop the disfigured corpse from plunging over the edge.
Meanwhile, the real Long Yan has already boarded a boat and left for Jiangnan to begin a new life.
The capital and the martial world erupt into chaos as everyone searches for his remains. Some are curious about whether he really died. Some are worried that trouble will arise if they wait too long, so they keep investigating. And some know he has come back from the dead and want revenge for the way he played with their sincere feelings.
“Senior Brother.” A young man in a moon-white robe stands in the way of Long Yan’s route home, umbrella in hand, looking windswept and weary. He smiles as if bathed in the spring breeze. “Was it fun treating me like a dog?”
In Long Yan’s heart, there is a bright moon that once pulled him out of the mud when he was young and has stayed by his side ever since.
From that moment on, a second wish took root in his heart: to remove every obstacle and keep that moon hanging high in the sky forever, even if it meant his own death.
But Long Yan doesn’t know that this so-called moon shines only on him. If he dies, Song Yu won’t go on living either.
Senior Brother, I’ve come to take you home.
Note: 1. They are each other’s white moonlight, they save each other, happy ending, one-on-one.
2. The bottom really is beautiful, strong, and tragic. The top really does have a gentle exterior and a dark heart.
3. The capital is full of schemes. I want to go back to the countryside.
