He Once Had a Moonlight in His Heart

White Moonlight / Substitute / Chasing the Wife to the Crematorium

Gu Ying's birth seemed like a mistake. Her mother suffered a difficult labor, and her twin brother nearly suffocated in the womb.

Her parents called her a jinx, and her whole family wanted nothing to do with her. Her grandmother was the only reason she was allowed to live.

When she grew up, her father seized power and her younger brother took the throne. Gu Ying, who had never enjoyed a single day of life as a princess, was given in marriage to a powerful court official. But the man loved her cousin, who was already dead.

This marriage was nothing more than a leap from one pit of fire into another!

[Her perspective] An imperial decree arranged her marriage, and Gu Ying became the wife of the man who had nearly been her brother-in-law.

On their wedding day, white curtains filled the room. A princess became a powerful official's concubine, and Gu Ying became the laughingstock of the realm.

She just smiled at the gossip. She didn't care what anyone else said, as long as that stone-faced man stopped bothering her.

[His perspective] A year into their marriage, Pei Hui happened to pass by the side courtyard and finally saw his wife's face.

In an instant, his heart crumbled like a mountain collapsing.

She looked exactly like the woman he loved.

From then on, he thought about teasing her, getting closer to her, and before long, he had fallen for her himself.
