[Steady Older Daddy x Alluring Darling]

Ning Zhao had lived with the Fu family since she was little.

The Fu family was large and thriving. She had six older cousins alone, and as the youngest, pretty, and lovable one, Ning Zhao was spoiled rotten by the Fus.

She was the princess cherished by both the Ning and Fu families.

-

The most prominent of the Fu family’s generation was Fourth Young Master Fu, famous for keeping people at arm’s length. Though he always wore a gentle expression, none of the women who flocked around him ever got close.

By family rank, Ning Zhao and her older cousins had to call Fu Yaoli Uncle.

Everyone else was a little afraid of him, but Ning Zhao was especially close to him.

Because this aloof, refined uncle, whom others said had no interest in women, always asked her tenderly what she wanted, then placed everything she desired right before her.

-

On her sixteenth birthday, Fu Yaoli was expected to give Ning Zhao a gift, and let her choose whatever she wanted.

“What would Zhao Zhao like? Uncle will get it for you.”

Ning Zhao blinked her captivating fox eyes and said, “Uncle, I like you.”

The gentle smile on Fu Yaoli’s face faded a little. His eyes darkened. “Zhao Zhao, you’re still too young.”

The next day, Fu Yaoli went abroad.

-

When Ning Zhao was twenty, she left the Fu family and returned to the Ning family. The Ning and Fu families threw a lavish banquet for her, inviting the elite of the capital.

At the banquet, Ning Zhao wore a wine-red satin mermaid gown that made her look even more dazzling. Many society ladies eagerly asked what sort of man she liked.

Her gaze swept over Fu Yaoli, who had just returned from abroad. Smiling, she said, “I like men around my own age.”

Amid the clinking of glasses, Fu Yaoli looked at the young woman who had blossomed into a graceful beauty, and at the men passing by her side. Whatever crossed his mind, he lowered his head and chuckled. “Zhao Zhao has grown up.”

Ning Zhao raised her champagne, her eyes shimmering. “Are you still going to keep an eye on me, Uncle?”

Fu Yaoli clasped Ning Zhao’s slender waist, his gaze tender.

He leaned close to her, his voice almost bewitching. “You’ve got it backward, Zhao Zhao. How about you keep an eye on me from now on?”

-

Only later did Ning Zhao learn that, for the past twenty years, someone had loved her, day after day.

Three Parts White

[Adopted Daughter x Family Heir]

Shu Tang had always lived by the rules, following the future her family had planned for her, step by step.

As the Shu family’s adopted daughter, Shu Tang knew exactly why her adoptive parents had put so much effort into raising her:

She had an exceptionally beautiful face, and was meant to be married off to the Ji family, one of the capital’s most powerful clans, as a tool for an alliance. She would become the wife of Ji Yunhe, a member of the Ji family’s collateral branch.

He was a notorious playboy in the capital, and people said he had a first love living abroad.

So Shu Tang had to be well-read, mannerly, gentle, considerate, elegant, and beautiful. Those were the labels she was expected to wear.

-

Not long before the wedding, Ji Yunhe’s first love returned from abroad.

Ji Yunhe left a family dinner, and when he came back, he called off the engagement.

The marriage between the Ji and Shu families was the Shu family’s chance to climb higher. Shu Tang’s father berated her for being useless and demanded that she marry into the Ji family no matter what.

The wedding had to go ahead as planned.

Shu Tang had no choice but to meet Ji Yunhe, only to receive a cold rejection.

She walked out of the Ji residence in a daze. A sudden downpour soaked her through.

A blinding flash of light streaked past, and a black Bentley stopped at an angle in front of her.

The man in the back seat lowered the window halfway, revealing his stern profile. “Miss Shu, get in.”

It was Ji Yanxiu, the eldest grandson of the Ji family.

-

The socialites who had been waiting to laugh at Shu Tang instead heard that she and Ji Yanxiu were getting married.

Their wedding took everyone by surprise. Some even dared to guess that Shu Tang had gotten hold of Ji Yanxiu’s weakness or some kind of leverage over him.

That night, Ji Yanxiu pinned Shu Tang against the door and whispered in her ear, “Mrs. Ji, don’t let the rumors become true.”

Shu Tang assumed he wanted her to play the role of the perfect wife and protect the Ji family’s reputation.

“Leave it to me, Mr. Ji.” Shu Tang’s ears turned red, but her voice was clear.

Ji Yanxiu had helped her out of a bind, so it was only right that she agree to his request.

But... why were his requests getting stranger and stranger?

Holding hands and acting affectionate in public made sense, but why did they have to cuddle in private too?

-

Only after Shu Tang had left him did Ji Yunhe wake up from his dream.

He wanted Ji Yanxiu to give Shu Tang back to him.

“You can’t have the Ji family, and you can’t have Shu Tang either.” Ji Yanxiu blocked the doorway, looking coldly at Ji Yunhe. “Besides, you were the one who let Shu Tang go.”

Shu Tang’s figure flickered into view behind him.

Ji Yunhe went mad with the urge to rush inside.

Bang.

The door shut in his face.

-

Shu Tang had no idea that, on a London street that winter, fate had already bound her to Ji Yanxiu.

1. Zhao Zhao is not unloved by her parents! Quite the opposite: she is cherished twice over by the Ning and Fu families.

8. The story serves the plot. Please don't read too much into it if it differs from reality.

9. “You are the moon above the clouds, and I entrust these feelings to you” is a line found online, apparently modeled on Li Bai’s “I send my sorrowing heart to the bright moon, to follow you as far as Yelang in the west” and Song Yu’s “The bright day departs, and the long night descends.”

10. The first version of this blurb was written on April 24, 2024. I have screenshots and records in the relevant app as proof.

May we all meet our own bright moon, Zhao Zhao.
