1vn, messy and sordid, with a true love interest.
A nontraditional hurt/comfort story about someone who gives his heart only to be betrayed, falls into the mud, claws his way back out, and is finally soothed by happiness.
Ming Chu is harassed by his father. Terrified, he joins the other villagers heading to the county town to find work.
A kind restaurant owner takes him in. The county's top university entrance exam scorer throws a lavish celebration banquet, and spots him among the servers at first sight.
Ming Chu is beautiful.
With his slightly tousled hair and fair skin, he is like a crescent moon reflected in water amid the crowd.
"Chu Chu, you're so pitifully adorable."
He has a fairly decent romance with the city's top exam scorer. With his boyfriend's financial support, Ming Chu moves to a big city, rents a place near a prestigious university, and gets a better-paying job.
He dreams of saving up to support his boyfriend, then marrying him once he graduates and living happily ever after.
Until his boyfriend starts treating him more and more like an ATM.
That night, Ming Chu is waiting outside a bar for his boyfriend after a fight.
The rich young masters have never seen a rare beauty like him. They crowd around, throwing banknotes at his pure, pretty face and offering to buy a night with him.
He needs the money.
The day he is exposed, his nude photos spread across the internet. With his last 40 yuan, he buys a ticket back to the county town.
A cheap whore.
He never expects those arrogant, high-and-mighty young masters, who choked him in bed and called him a slut, to follow his scent all the way there.
"Chu Chu, you're so beautiful now."
They're not afraid that Ming Chu will sleep with anyone. They're afraid he'll no longer be willing to.
Surrounded by them, the shadow of his lashes lends a serene air to his fair skin.
Ming Chu brushes his fingers over each of their faces, then touches their lips.
He smiles with pity. "You dogs."
His life took a disastrous turn, an extreme too shameful to speak of, but it doesn't matter. Ming Chu is happy now, too.
Wealth, status, power... He's simply found another way to possess them.
Isn't that right?
He is the most depraved moonlight in their hearts.
He will walk over these men to the peak built from desire and love.
The bottom is not a virgin.
All the tops are virgins. The true top comes in during the second half of the book. Feel free to dig in early on, but respect the pure 1v1 romance later.
Twisted love is still love.
Dirty mud. A fallen, blackened county-town sweetheart. A depraved moonlight. Anything goes, but pay up first. Chu Chu Approval Bot.
Nontraditional hurt/comfort, knight and flower, top 1 is a loyal dog, Chu Chu takes the lead.
Lots of one-sided pining for the bottom. My tastes are pure chaotic evil, so feel free to dodge this one.
Character notes, if you need them:
A cruel, clear-headed beauty with a cold heart and a harem of admirers. A bewitching, ghostlike bottom.
Interest first. Low self-worth to high self-worth. Chu Chu above all.
One more warning.
Lots of people obsessing over the bottom. The really dark kind.
Check out my friend's similar completed novel, "The Shared Moonlight," by Wudi Xiangcai Dawang.
Theme: Spring mountains are beautiful along the way. Don't let old dew leave a stain.
