Before Nightfall

Zhang Huan lost his parents when he was very young. Only because his aunt took him in did he avoid becoming one of the children in an orphanage. When he saw his aunt, uncle, and cousin together, he felt that they were the real family, while he, though living in their home, was nothing more than an adopted child who could never fit in. Perhaps he had been cheerful and lively while his parents were still alive, but his later life made him quiet and withdrawn. All he wanted was to repay his aunt's family as soon as possible and have a life of his own. He had no intention of spending time dating. But because of his striking looks, girls had pursued him since childhood. The others were easy to deal with: he only had to turn them down. This time, however, he got involved with a young lady, Zhao Chang, the daughter of Zhao Zhen. By a twist of fate, this unexpectedly brought him and Zhao Zhen together. The story of Zhang Huan and Zhao Zhen is part of the Wei Xi series. Updated daily! Cao Yiran's story: Yiran Follows the Wind Before Nightfall was published by Longma.
