[The synopsis for the ongoing novel "The Moonlight in the Palace" is at the very bottom]
★ Reunited after a breakup | Male substitute | Mutual healing | Both have only ever been with each other, 1v1, happy ending
In his third year of college, Ling Zhou was a broke part-time student.
He worked as a paid stand-in player in an online game, but ended up being pursued by a rich, gorgeous, universally adored goddess.
Jiang Mengran helped him level up and gave him gear. Her only request was that he sing for her.
Ling Zhou offered her his heart and carefully planned their future together.
But one day, he heard the top-ranked player's voice message, and the voice was almost identical to his.
He remembered how, on their calls, she had said dreamily, "I love your voice so much..."
Only then did Ling Zhou realize he was just a substitute for that man, and a poor imitation at that.

Four years later, Jiang Mengran signed a contract to become a gaming streamer.
Then she discovered that the person behind the project was Ling Zhou, who had inexplicably left all those years ago.
Ling Zhou was no longer the timid, mild-mannered young man he'd once been. He made her move into his home to train for esports.
With her family's fortunes in decline, Jiang Mengran had no choice but to be at his mercy.
But his attitude toward her was strange. Sometimes he was so infatuated he lost his composure, and sometimes he kept her at arm's length.
Jiang Mengran had always thought that he was the one who left first, and that he was the one in the wrong.
Until one day, Ling Zhou got drunk and pinned her against a wall, a dangerous gleam in his eyes.
She was flustered and helpless, yet her heart raced uncontrollably. His thin lips pressed against her ear, and the voice that always made her swoon murmured, "Didn't you want to use me as a substitute? Then let me be one for real."
--The sea can be crossed by boat, and even mountains and oceans can be overcome.
A wealthy heiress who seems carefree but is actually devoted x a sensitive, insecure part-time student with a strong sense of pride
Later: A game streamer who loves boldly and hates just as fiercely x a domineering, eccentric IT company CEO
Reader's Guide:
1. Not a real substitute. Both have only ever been with each other, 1v1, happy ending.
2. The heroine's family isn't bankrupt; they're just going through a rough patch. The hero doesn't take advantage of her vulnerability.
3. A keyboard-based online game, with a fictional setting and no real-life models.
4. The online romance and real-life romance have a 1:1 ratio. There aren't many gaming terms, so even readers who have never played games are welcome.
---The historical novel "The Moonlight in the Palace" begins in July---
Meng Yunjiao, the general's daughter, is graceful and beautiful. She is also betrothed to the crown prince, making her the envy of all the refined young ladies in the capital.
But just as her wedding approached, she disregarded her reputation and took in a gravely injured young man.
The young man's origins were a mystery. Everyone in the general's household guarded against him like a thief, but Meng Yunjiao insisted on keeping him.
Meng Yunjiao thought he would become her most loyal guard.
Until one day, when she returned from praying on the mountain, she saw the city full of mourners, her father's chest pierced, and everyone kneeling to hail him as the new emperor...
Only then did she learn his other identity: Duan Yi, son of the deposed empress.
With hands covered in blood, he caressed her cheek. "I told you, I want the crown prince's seat. And I want you too."
Later, Meng Yunjiao could no longer remember what her life in the palace had been like.
She only remembered the daily bloodletting from her wrists, the bowls of soup that left her dazed...
And the palace maid who was at her side, casually put to death because he was displeased.
Night after night, she was tormented by nightmares, longing to escape the demon at her side.
*
Duan Yi, the fourth prince, was born under an ill-starred fate. The emperor regarded him as a thorn in his side and even wanted him dead.
Hunted down and at death's door, he had intended to end his life, but a woman saved him.
After that, he had someone he wanted to protect, and began to long for a place of power.
He broke through palace walls and carved a path through thorns for her, but their misunderstandings multiplied, and the hatred in her eyes only grew.
Duan Yi didn't mind. As long as Meng Yunjiao stayed by his side, that was enough.
But he never imagined that one day his moonlight would escape from the imperial palace...

Serial "Gongque Bright Moon" ancient saying about taking by force, try reading: Meng Yunjiao took it from Duan Yi's hand, touched it carefully, and found that the lower left corner of the jade flute was engraved with the word "Yi", which was uneven. That's right. Historically, only imperial objects were qualified to use bright yellow. What's more, such a precious jade must have a name engraved on it. It's just... This man's gift of jade will inevitably make people think. Duan Yi also guessed what she was thinking: "Ordinary people give women a jade pendant as a token of love, but I want to be different from Gu Pian. I will give you a jade flute so that you can remember the difference between Gu and others." Here we go again, I have to talk about this. Didn't the jade pendant Duan Ci give him break a few days ago? What else did he want? Duan Yi stared at her with his dark eyes, making Meng Yunjiao afraid of his unreasonable request to give her a sachet in return. Fortunately, he only remained silent for a long time and then let the matter go. "This flute has Gu's name engraved on it. Seeing the flute is like meeting Gu. From now on, Jiao Jiao can only play Gu's flute."
