CompletedVengeful Vixen x White Moonlight Who Accepts Defeat.
Zhong Mian once experienced a bitter unrequited crush on Shi Wang, a senior known for his outstanding looks and upright, decisive character. Because of his exceptional appearance, he was unanimously chosen to play a deity in their middle school drama club's activity.
However, this "deity" only spoke harshly to her and even caused her to break her leg on stage, making her the laughingstock of the entire school. From then on, Zhong Mian's heartfelt affection turned into hatred.
Three years later, the National University Drama Club performed a new play, "Venus." Their situations were completely reversed: the popular Zhong Mian played the goddess Venus, while Shi Wang played the supporting role she loathed.
Her every word expressed disgust, every sentence was cold. Even though these were just lines, Shi Wang was deeply hurt. After the play concluded, Zhong Mian felt a great sense of relief, thinking their ties were severed. But unexpectedly, he waited for her downstairs all night.
When she saw him, he smiled bitterly, "Venus, do I still have the right to ask you to love me?" His once proud and arrogant eyes were now slightly red. Now, Zhong Mian had become that uncontrolled wildfire, burning in Shi Wang's heart, leaving him sleepless day and night.
Even if she hated him, he only wanted to fly into the flame like a moth. The main theme: dignity and freedom are far above love.
Trigger warnings: 1. The female lead has many powerful suitors; it is not a 1v1 relationship. 2. This is not a "grand female lead" romance novel where the female lead softens just because the male lead sheds tears. Readers who favor the male lead should proceed with caution.
