Journey to the Moon

After her family was struck by disaster, her father went bankrupt.

In a single night, Sheng Jingyue became someone everyone despised. The burden of enormous debts fell on her shoulders, and in the freezing winter, her relatives shut their doors to her.

Just as she was at the end of her rope, Ji Yanli appeared in her life once again.

By then, he'd shed the awkwardness and shabby appearance of his youth. He was refined and distinguished, with a cool, aloof air that made people hesitate to approach him. Yet he slid a bank card toward her. His gold-rimmed glasses reflected his cool gaze. "I can help you resolve this, but there's one condition."

"Marry me."

Sheng Jingyue had to admit that she agreed to become his wife because she wanted to resolve her family's problems as quickly as possible.

But she never understood why Ji Yanli had made such a demand.

Until one day, she asked him why he'd done it.

The man stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, adjusting his collar. His Adam's apple bobbed as he turned to look at her sitting on the bed. The thin straps outlined her delicate shoulders, unable to conceal the faint red marks left by last night's passionate embrace.

He gave a sudden, low laugh and discreetly lowered his gaze. "What else could it be?"

"So you really do like me?"

His fingers paused as he adjusted his clothes. He came over and bent close to her.

Tilting his head, he kissed the red mark on her neck that had yet to fade. His voice was low, almost infatuated. "If I didn't like you, would I have kissed you until you looked like this?"

[Bonus Scene]

After marrying Ji Yanli, Sheng Jingyue discovered that there were plenty of little foxes around him looking for a chance to seduce him. As soon as she chased one away, another showed up.

One day, she finally couldn't take it anymore and kissed Ji Yanli in front of one of them.

Without meaning to, she let her identity slip: "He's my husband. Please stay away from him from now on."

Later, their heated breaths mingled. On a passionate spring night, his hoarse, low voice fell by her ear. "Could you call me 'hubby' one more time?"

* Someone loved me for ten years.

* Refined scoundrel & gentle beauty
