Gather His Moonlight to Grow My Cinnabar

Gather His Moonlight to Grow My Cinnabar Plot:

Su Wan, an antique restorer, clings to the faint cinnabar mole on her wrist—a memento from the “moonlight boy” who saved her as a child. The boy drew the mole with cinnabar ink and promised, “This way I can find you.” A decade later, Lin Shiyan, an astrophotographer, arrives with an old pocket watch engraved “Moonlight for Cinnabar,” inside which lies his childhood drawing of a girl with a cinnabar mole—Su Wan. Su Wan discovers Lin’s camera is filled with moonlight from her studio window; Lin admits he’s chased this moonlight for ten years to find his “cinnabar mole girl.” But as they fall in love, a batch of matching “Moonlight & Cinnabar” antiques reveals a past grudge: Lin’s grandfather and Su’s grandmother once missed each other over the same “Moonlight for Cinnabar” promise. Now, with two generations’ obsessions intertwined, Su Wan must choose: use his moonlight to fill her childhood regret, or grow their cinnabar into a shared moonlight together?
