After being publicly dumped and humiliated by the top-ranked scholar who had climbed the social ladder by attaching himself to a powerful family, Yu Huan became the laughingstock of Kyoto's noblewomen.
But when Yu Huan became engaged to Pei Yi, a man she had met only once, she became the rival of Kyoto's noblewomen instead.
Pei Yi, a prince's son, a powerful member of the imperial family, and the unattainable moon admired and revered by countless noblewomen in Kyoto.
Yet Yu Huan did not know that this man, as distant as the moon, still bore a clear, childish bite mark from her on his wrist.
The marriage proposal seemed like a dream. Yu Huan had heard that Pei Yi had once loved a noblewoman he could never have, and accidentally learned that she looked like that woman.
So Yu Huan thought Pei Yi would soon lose interest and fall for someone else. She behaved with perfect propriety at every turn, careful not to offend him or cause a misunderstanding.
But Yu Huan did not know that Pei Yi saw her reasonable, considerate behavior as reluctance born of a lingering love for someone else.
Even if she was unwilling, Pei Yi was determined to marry Yu Huan. His infatuation turned into an obsession, and he would never let go.
The dynasty and official titles are all made up. This is just a sweet romance, so please don't take it too seriously.
