The White Moonlight Returned Home and Gave Up

1,

Bai Qingci, the youngest son of the Bai family in Jiangcheng, was raised with every luxury and adored by all. Beautiful, refined, and kind, he was the unattainable moonlight in the hearts of everyone in Jiangcheng.

Unfortunately, at eighteen, Bai Qingci went abroad to further his studies, becoming everyone's regret.

Three years later, Bai Qingci returned home, only to find that everyone around him had become strange.

There was a delicate young man who looked a lot like him, rushing up to cry and say he wouldn't make him leave, that he would leave the domineering CEO on his own.

The CEO rushed over, wrapped the young man in his arms, and warned Bai Qingci, "I don't love you anymore. Chu Chu is my true love. Don't you dare bully him."

Bai Qingci: ???

Bai Qingci: Wait, who the hell are you? Do I know you?

There was a senior who had gone through five substitutes and two marriages in three years, yet claimed Bai Qingci was his one true love.

Bai Qingci: ???

Bai Qingci: Your true love comes cheap. And actually, you just like people who look like me, don't you?

And there was his childhood friend, who confessed his deep love to him and claimed to have waited for him for three years.

Bai Qingci: ???

Bai Qingci: I went abroad, I didn't die. Was a plane ticket really that expensive?

Bai Qingci couldn't understand it. He had only gone abroad, so why had he inexplicably become everyone else's moonlight after coming home? Was it just because his surname was Bai?

They acted as if he'd died just because he'd gone abroad, and couldn't wait to mourn him by finding a whole string of substitutes.

Is this what you call true love?

Having read plenty of stories about moonlight and substitutes, Bai Qingci knew that only dead moonlight was real moonlight. Living moonlight never ended well.

So the moonlight who returned home declared that he was done!

He would stay away from everyone and refuse to be a part of their little games.

To avoid this bunch of lunatics, Bai Qingci decided to find someone to marry for the sake of the families' alliance.

His only condition was that the other person absolutely could not love him, let alone treat him as some kind of moonlight.

After looking around, he chose Fu Dongling, the new head of the top-tier Fu family: a rigid, restrained, aloof, and celibate man.

What attracted Bai Qingci most was his detached air, as if he were destined to spend his whole life alone.

After meeting a few times and finding each other satisfactory, they quickly registered their marriage.

Only after the wedding did Bai Qingci realize he'd been tricked. What the hell, this guy had a crush on him too?!

So much for being aloof and celibate. He's a gentlemanly scoundrel!
