If Only the Moonlight Were Tender

Eight years ago, she was the entertainment industry's hottest rising star. Applause and bright flowers greeted her wherever she went. With a beauty mark beneath her eye, she was alluring and glamorous, like a golden phoenix with gorgeous feathers, passionate and dazzling.

He was only a tutor from a humble background. Again and again, she declared him hers, and again and again, he rejected her without mercy.

"What gives you the right to reject me?"

"The fact that you like me."

Eight years later, she has removed her beauty mark, put on thick black-rimmed glasses, and plucked every beautiful feather from her body, disappearing into the crowd. Her only wish in life is to become an ordinary person.

He, meanwhile, has weathered the ups and downs of the business world and risen to the top. Yet amid the vast crowd, he spots the most ordinary-looking woman at a glance.

"Why don't you like me anymore?"

"Now I know my place. Before, I was blind."

A long time span

Both are each other's first and only

Angsty with sweet moments

Coming next: My Ascended Ex-Husband Has Descended to the Mortal Realm (100,000 words already drafted, definitely won't be abandoned)

Lang Heng, the most watched High God in the Nine Heavens, descended to the mortal realm to undergo a trial of love.

In less than a hundred years, he attained the Dao and ascended in mortal form. But who would have thought that after returning to the immortal ranks, he would no longer be able to manage even the most basic meditation?

The immortal physician declared that his trial of love was unfinished.

But he searched through all his memories of the mortal world and couldn't find a trace of romantic love. There was only one woman, who had died because of him in an accident.

Very well. He would descend again and repay this debt of life, bringing the matter to a virtuous conclusion.

The woman was dead, so he sought out her reincarnation to fulfill her wish and protect her. But by accident, he also broke the spell of emotional detachment he had been under in the mortal realm.

In that instant, the love he had suppressed and buried deep in his heart for five hundred years surged forth.

Ha. He had never truly escaped this trial of love.

And the person who had poisoned him was the very woman who had died for him five hundred years ago. Now she was hiding behind the secret identity of her reincarnated self, trading barbs with him.

She had never died at all!

Bai Yu, a low-level cultivator, takes a midday nap one day and has a strange dream.

A handsome man in white, looking nothing like an ordinary mortal, walks toward her and says, "Want to ascend? A hundred years from now, I will attain the Dao and ascend."

Bai Yu wakes with drool all over herself. Thinking it was an erotic dream, she can't help noticing that the man from her dream looks just like the exceptionally talented junior brother from the neighboring sect.

Could it really have been a divine sign?

Thus begins her long, three-year quest to get him to take her along.

But the junior brother turns out to be a dense, hard-hearted blockhead. Nothing she tries can move him.

Fine. She's already lost all dignity in front of him, so she might as well start over with a new secret identity.

On the day she decides to leave, Bai Yu fakes her death in his arms and secretly gives him a dose of the spell of emotional detachment.

From then on, he takes his sunny road while she walks her wooden bridge.

But life is unpredictable. Four hundred years later, her "ex-husband," who has already attained immortality, returns, now wearing his High God identity, to avenge the "death" she faked.
