Imprisoning the Black Moonlight

Having not slept all night, Yao Gongyue was so sleepy that her eyelids could barely stay open. She had a private lesson scheduled with Professor Susan that afternoon and needed to get back to rest. She had no interest in dealing with strange men and pulled her best friend along.

Ah Liang looked at the girl who left without even saying a word to him, scratched the back of his head in confusion. They say girls change their expressions faster than turning the pages of a book, and it seems that's true.

Even if I can't figure it out, I still have to keep pursuing her. She's so beautiful; if I miss her, I'll never meet another one like her in my life. Besides, she's so adorable. This is the first time I've ever been so attracted to a girl.

"Miss Yao, did I say something wrong? I'm not a bad person..."

The car followed at a distance, and the man inside tried to explain.

boom!

Before they could finish their second sentence, the car was slammed into from behind with a loud crash that echoed through the quiet street. The two girls were startled and turned to look at them.

The front of the Ghost was already somewhat deformed, and the Panamera was thrown several meters away, crashing diagonally into a thick tree trunk on the side of the road.

Ah Liang jumped out of the car, his anger surging, and walked towards Guster.

Nuohan remained calm, and when the man was only half a meter away from him, he suddenly struck out, throwing a punch straight at A Liang's face.

The man, stunned on the ground, finally realized that the one who attacked him was the terrifying "Cold-Faced Grim Reaper," the champion of the life-or-death boxing match.

After throwing a punch, the man took two steps forward and calmly stepped on Ah Liang's chest.

"Stay away from her, or you'll be dead next time!"

After saying that, he ground his feet hard for two seconds and walked towards the two girls who were stunned in place.

A taxi happened to be passing by, and Yao Gongyue quickly flagged it down. The two had just gotten in, and before they could even congratulate themselves on how fast they'd run, the passenger door opened, and a burly man got in.

"We're together!"

"Hey, what are you doing? This is the car we called!" Yao Gongyue retorted, arguing with the "strange" man.

“My car is wrecked. Go to Ivy Academy of Fine Arts. I’ll pay for the fare!” The man didn’t even turn his head. He gestured to the driver to drive, then took out his phone to make a call.

The two people behind them, one excited and the other angry, remained silent.

Upon arriving at the school gate, as soon as the car stopped, You Lili, still wanting a man's contact information, was pulled away quickly by her best friend, who had a cold expression on her face.

"Lily, wake up! That man looks really weird!" Yao Gongyue said as she walked.

"What's so strange about him? He's just a little cool. Some people are naturally quiet, what's so strange about that? He's so handsome, just admiring him without him saying a word is enough to make you look stunning. Yuebao, do you even know what you're talking about?"

Seeing that the man didn't follow, Yao Gongyue breathed a sigh of relief, released You Lili's hand, and took a deep breath.

"I feel like the way he looks at me is like a wolf looking at its prey, like he's about to devour me. It's so scary..."

She always remembered the man's eyes—dark, deep, and unfathomable.

"You're overthinking it. The way he looks at you is clearly one of infatuation, obsession, and deep affection, as if he's been waiting for you his whole life. He has countless sweet words he wants to say to you, but he doesn't know where to begin..."

Yu Lili became more and more exaggerated as she spoke, crossing her arms over her chest with a lovesick expression, "Wow, Yuebao, if he pursues you, you should say yes. A man like that is rare and hard to come by."

"Keep dreaming, I'm going to catch up on my sleep now, I have class this afternoon!" She gave a delicate yawn, waved, and walked towards the dormitory building.

Yuli shrugged and walked toward the café next to the library. She needed to perk herself up before starting her next part-time job in two hours.

The coffee was strong, and wisps of white steam drifted into the nostrils of the girl who was dozing with her eyes closed, but nothing could rouse her from that momentary drowsiness.

Suddenly, Yuli, who had been squinting with her eyes closed, felt an overwhelming pressure rushing towards her, drawing ever closer. Finally, a dark shadow descended from above, obscuring the light in her vision and lingering for a long time. Only then did she realize it wasn't a passerby. She abruptly opened her eyes, and a sharp, handsome, yet excessively captivating face unexpectedly entered her field of vision. Her heart skipped a beat.

"Excuse me for disturbing you, Miss Lily!" Nohan nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

"You...you know me?" Yuli's lips were trembling.

The man didn't answer her question. Instead, he took out a black card, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of her.

"As far as I know, you had gender reassignment surgery and suffered from significant aftereffects, requiring expensive medical treatment and recovery. This is an unlimited spending card from St. John's Hospital. With this card, you can enjoy the best medical services available to you free of charge at any St. John's Hospital or its affiliated hospitals in the world!"

Yulili almost dug her long nails into her flesh. This was St. John's Hospital, which had one of the world's top medical teams and a program specializing in gender reassignment treatment and rehabilitation. However, the fees were exorbitant, almost astronomical. She never even dared to dream that one day she could go there for treatment.

However, despite her excitement, she knew her own limitations. She glanced at the composed man opposite her.

"Do you... have any conditions? I... I don't do anything illegal or disorderly!"

The man lifted his eyelids and glanced at her speechlessly.

"It's not a condition, I just want to ask Miss Lily for a favor. This is a small token of my appreciation!"

"What...what's the business?"

"Yao Gongyue!" The man solemnly uttered three words from his throat.

"You want to pursue Yuebao?" Yulili asked tentatively.

"No, I want her to be my wife! I'll do anything to get her!"

From the moment she saw him knock someone to the ground with a single punch in the boxing ring, unable to get up, Yu Lili knew that this man was ruthless, and even more ruthless than she had ever known.

Although she talked a big game, she knew in her heart that this kind of man was fine for casual flings, but she wouldn't dare to take it seriously.

"I'm sorry, I can't agree to that!" Yuri pushed the card in front of the man.

“Although Yuebao and I often tease each other, those are all minor things. But this matter is different. It concerns Yuebao’s happiness and personal safety. I can’t use my good friend as a bargaining chip.”

Her attitude was resolute, and she thought the man would change his expression. Unexpectedly, a faint smile appeared on his cold and tense face. Although the smile was almost imperceptible, Yulili could still sense that his mood had improved.

“Miss Lily, I will remember your protection of the moon and will definitely repay you!” The man pushed the card in front of her again.

"First, this isn't a transaction; it's just me expressing my desire to get to know you. Second, my feelings for her aren't lustful; they're deep and genuine. Third, I'm not very good at pursuing girls, and I'm afraid that being too impulsive might scare her away, so I want to start by getting to know you!"

Yu Lili hesitated for a few seconds, "But these are not enough to convince me that you are someone Yuebao can entrust her life to. Whether a man is reliable or not is not just a matter of words."

"You name your conditions, and I'll do it!" The man remained calm and composed.
