Every novel by Yan Jiuzhao, a top male-oriented web novelist, features a tragic supporting female character whose name includes the character "Jiu."
Each is breathtakingly beautiful, with skin like ice and jade, and stands aloof above the clouds. She is secretly admired by the underdog male protagonist, who starts off weak and insignificant before making a comeback. She is the white moonlight in his heart.
But it never lasts. The supporting character, who seems kind and innocent on the surface, reveals her vile true nature: affected and hypocritical, contemptuous of the poor, selfish, deceitful and vicious, arrogant and brainless, and as cruel as a snake or scorpion...
The male protagonist comes to despise and hate her, and soon she is written off as cannon fodder.

Readers and others familiar with the web-novel scene all wonder if the author puts Miss Jiu through so much because a woman whose name includes "Jiu" hurt him in real life.
Online discussions about Master Yan and Miss Jiu never die down.
The master remains aloof and never responds. Meanwhile, Miss Jiu keeps following the same path: secretly admired by the underdog male protagonist, regarded as his goddess and white moonlight, then hated and tormented by him... until she becomes cannon fodder.

One day, a new chapter of Record of the Abyss's Path to God went live.
In the new chapter, the novel's overpowered male protagonist, Long Aotian, stabbed his former white moonlight to death. The supporting female character, Feng Jiuyuan, had been named Miss Jiu, and once again she was killed off. The comments section was full of laughter.
At the same time, in a dimly lit bedroom, a handsome man with refined features and a hint of allure leaned down and held a woman tightly, resting his head on her shoulder. In an unusually soft voice, he began to wheedle her: "Ajiu, don't be mad. Mm... If you are angry, why don't you punish me?"
"I'm yours. You can punish me however you like."
Yan Xi loved someone so deeply that even when he hated her most, he couldn't bear to let the fictional characters he wrote lay a finger on her.
A sweet little story about two people saving each other, told in dual timelines: memories and the present.
Secret-crush and reunion tropes. The male lead has had a crush on the female lead since high school, but she has never known. They attended the same school and grade but were in different classes, and dated for a week. The female lead seems aloof, but is deeply insecure and fragile inside.
Please note before reading:
1. Written purely for fun, with writing and logic that may move you to tears. The male lead's eyesight will improve later on.
2. If it's not for you, please click away. Both leads are virgins.
Theme: Some things are worth never giving up on.
