I Swear I Didn’t Covet the Black Moonlight Heroine

Lu Shizhen transmigrates into a novel as a villainess who covets the heroine and is bound to a system called ‘Heaven Gives Me Another Chance.’ In the novel, the heroine Xu Shiyue was once a favored daughter of heaven but was betrayed by her uncle, leading to her parents’ deaths and her own blindness. The villainess, who had long coveted Xu Shiyue, takes advantage of her vulnerability, promising protection but ultimately revealing her true colors. The heroine, turned into a ‘Black Moonlight,’ cripples the villainess and leaves her to die in a fire. Facing the now-blind Xu Shiyue in her original character’s home, Lu Shizhen and her system fall silent.

Lu Shizhen: ‘Is there any hope?’

System: ‘Let’s give it a try.’

Determined to change the tragic fate, Lu Shizhen rolls up her sleeves and decides to turn the tide. She brings in top doctors to treat Xu Shiyue’s blindness and provides the best guide dog. Whatever Xu Shiyue needs, Lu Shizhen is willing to give, even if it means plucking the moon from the sky. People say Lu Shizhen is a capricious madwoman, but to Xu Shiyue, she becomes the only person she can rely on in her blurred vision. Finally, Lu Shizhen reaches the end of her storyline. On the night Xu Shiyue takes over the Xu family, Lu Shizhen fakes her death with the system’s help and escapes to enjoy a new life.

That night, the ruthless Xu family heiress stands in the snow, staring at the charred corpse, her eyes red like a mad dog. Rumors spread that Xu Shiyue hated the madwoman who imprisoned her so much that she scattered her ashes without even a grave. Passing by, Lu Shizhen loses her appetite for her dumplings and quietly moves her retirement plans further away. Years later, Lu Shizhen hears that the guide dog she gave Xu Shiyue is dying and quietly returns to her original home, only to run into Xu Shiyue, who shouldn’t still be living there. On a quiet spring night, the sound of the door locking is particularly clear.

Xu Shiyue: ‘Where do you think you’re going?’
