Who Says a Substitute Can't Beat the White Moonlight?

Luo Xuanran and Shen Yugu have been on and off for eight years. One month before their wedding, Shen Yugu's first love returns from abroad and tells Luo Xuanran, "Thank you for taking care of my beloved for eight years!"

Only then does Luo Xuanran understand: he was a substitute?

He puts on his sunglasses. This young master's heart is now dead to love.

That night, Luo Xuanran heads to a club and picks out eight male models, all of whom look strikingly like Shen Yugu.

The door swings open. The person who walks in is none other than the famous president of the Shen Group, dressed in a suit.

"You suddenly remembered to cheat on me?" Shen Yugu pulls off his tie and looks down at Luo Xuanran. "Give me a reason in three seconds."

Luo Xuanran calmly fastens his jacket and lifts his chin. "A substitute, because you're just a substitute."

Shen Yugu: ...

He chokes on his words for a long moment, then squeezes his eyes shut.

For the 108th time, Shen Yugu catches Luo Xuanran at a club. For the 108th time, Luo Xuanran ends up face-down on the bed, holding his lower back and cursing.

"Shen Yugu, I'm calling the police. I'm reporting you for assault."

"I just had this CEO of yours work the fields, and now you're calling the police? Pay up."

Luo Xuanran looks up. "Are you insane?"

Shen Yugu's gaze sharpens. "I'm your substitute now, so cut me some slack."

Luo Xuanran: ...

Later, Shen Yugu announces that the wedding will go ahead as planned, with business tycoons gathering for the occasion. His first love, dressed in a suit, stands on the wedding lawn, waiting to join him in marriage.

Instead, Shen Yugu carries a tightly bound Luo Xuanran down the aisle. The first love, dressed in a wedding gown, turns deathly pale with shock.

Shen Yugu smiles. "Didn't see that coming, did you? In the end, the substitute me married the substitute him."

Bound up like a perfect little block of tofu, Luo Xuanran lets out a scream.

"Shen Yugu! Did you hit your head or something? Put me down! You read a few CEO romance novels and think you're some domineering CEO now?"

Shen Yugu holds him down by the butt and tilts his head up to kiss Luo Xuanran. "Still pretending? Keep going. You've read a hundred substitute romances, so you've run out of schemes by now, right?"

Luo Xuanran freezes, exposed.

The first love faints on the spot.

Luo Xuanran playfully catches Shen's chin and smiles.

"You figured out I was acting? When?"
