34 EPThe Swapped Bride Never Looks Back
Before her grand wedding, the man she loved—deceived by her younger sister—repeatedly misunderstood and hurt her, even forcing her to kneel and apologize. Realizing the futility of such a demeaning devotion, she chose to swap places with her sister, willingly marrying a feared, bloodthirsty "half-beast." On the wedding day, as guests gathered and her sister waited in high spirits for the groom, the man—hearing that his "idealized love" (his *bai yue guang*) was in danger—abandoned her before the crowd and galloped off toward the Dark Forest. It was only when the truth finally came to light that he discovered the person who had once risked her life to save him was, in fact, the very woman he had so cruelly mistreated. Overcome with remorse, he led his troops to storm the ancient fortress, desperate to reclaim her. But by then, she had already found a gentle, sincere soul within the beast’s stronghold—going so far as to shield the half-beast from a blade with her own body. Their true love broke the curse; the unfaithful man was left to wither away in misery, while she and the prince—now restored to his human form—celebrated a magnificent wedding of their own.
