Gu Qingyue lived eighteen years believing she was the cherished daughter of the Gu family—until she discovered the truth. She was never their biological child, only a substitute raised to absorb misfortune for their real daughter.
When the Gu family’s company faced collapse, her adoptive parents betrayed her completely. They drugged her and attempted to send her to an old man’s bed as payment. While escaping, Gu Qingyue crossed paths with Shang Yuze, a man who had also been drugged. One uncontrollable night bound two complete strangers together, and an unexpected turn of fate led them to register their marriage.
Shang Yuze was the powerful head of the Shang family, one of the most influential elites in the business world. Refined and distant, his appearance was elegant and immaculate, yet his methods were decisive and merciless. Known for his restraint and emotional detachment, he was widely regarded as a man untouched by desire. Until the day a wedding ring appeared on his finger.
News of the Shang family’s leader being married spread rapidly. The public was certain the marriage was nothing more than a formality for inheritance, devoid of love. Gu Qingyue believed so too. When she heard that Shang Yuze’s so-called “white moonlight” had returned, she quietly left behind a divorce agreement and disappeared.
That night, drunk and reckless, she went to a bar with her best friend and hired male models. In her haze, one face suddenly became Shang Yuze’s. She sobered instantly.
By the floor-to-ceiling window, the man stood tall and composed, his hand resting firmly on her waist, his gaze intense and burning. Leaning close, his low voice brushed her ear.
“There is no white moonlight in my heart,” he said.
“There is only Gu Qingyue.”
