The Chang’e in Yu Hebai’s painting came to life.
She descended gracefully into the mortal world, and Yu Hebai worshipped her as a Goddess.
So completely that he forgot all about his engagement to me.
Clutching the marriage contract, I went to the Yu family estate to demand an explanation from Yu Hebai.

My first thought was: What kind of Chang’e is this supposed to be?
My second thought was: She was nowhere near the woman who had stayed at my house last night.
