Moonlight Addiction

On the second anniversary of Tang Luo and her boyfriend getting together, he cheated on her with his junior.

In a private KTV room, the atmosphere was charged. Her boyfriend and his "dear little sister" were embracing intimately, playing a game of passing a piece of paper from mouth to mouth as their rowdy friends egged them on.

At the time, Tang Luo was still holding the birthday present she'd carefully prepared for a month, saving every penny to buy it for him. It had cost her three months of living expenses.

Hearing the unrestrained laughter from inside, Tang Luo felt ice-cold all over. She pressed her lips together, and finally made up her mind to end things.

After the truth came out, the scumbag wouldn't leave her alone, throwing tantrums, making a scene, and threatening to kill himself.

To escape his harassment, Tang Luo finally gave in to her parents and sought the protection of the Tang family.

Seeing their precious daughter finally come around, Mr. and Mrs. Tang were so happy they didn't sleep for two days. They began picking a future son-in-law from a huge list of men eager to court and marry her.

The Ji and Tang families had been family friends for generations. The Ji family's old master had watched Tang Luo grow up and had taken to the adorable little girl at first sight. But before she was old enough to marry, she fell for some other brat, and everything went to pieces.

As soon as Old Master Ji heard that Tang Luo had broken up, he brought his grandson over to propose.

The grandson was a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine. He must be an old-fashioned fossil, right?

Tang Luo went in with very low expectations, only to discover that he was the doctor she'd seen before.

He wore a thin white shirt, with an austere air and a gentle, modest manner. Tang Luo's heart, thought dead, came pounding back to life.

He coolly explained that his family was pressuring him to marry too. If she didn't agree, she could simply refuse.

The phone in her bag buzzed wildly. Her best friend was helping her escape the blind date.

When no one was paying attention, Tang Luo secretly messaged her back.

[I think he's pretty nice. I might be able to stick around a little longer...]

Her best friend: ?

One was trying to heal from heartbreak, the other to dodge pressure to marry. They hit it off and decided to get engaged and see how things went. If they truly weren't meant for each other, they would persuade their families to let them break up later.

The scumbag had assumed Tang Luo would give in like she always had. He never expected to hear from a classmate that she was engaged.

Enraged, he prepared to crash the wedding, but the hotel security guards pinned him to the ground at the entrance, leaving him unable to move.

The scumbag, convinced he was the devoted one, threw his head back and shouted Tang Luo's name. Just then, a man in a black tailcoat, elegant and serene as a spring breeze under a bright moon, walked out of the hotel.

"Looking for my wife?" The man gave a faint smile. "Now isn't a good time. Once the banquet is over, I can bring her out to see you."
