The Soft, Sweet Beauty Was Hidden Away by the Villain with a Knife

Song Zheng, a young woman traveling by boat to the capital, has a dream. In it, she becomes the capital’s most beautiful woman, marries the heir of Marquis Min, and sees her two brothers named great generals. Ten years later, her husband ascends the throne, only to turn around and execute the meritorious officials… Her two brothers are killed, and her cousin Zhu Yusheng is made empress instead. In her previous life, heartbroken, Song Zheng plunged from the hundred-foot-high Chunfeng Hall. After waking, Song Zheng resolves never again to use her beauty to curry favor or let herself be at the mercy of others. In this life, she will wield the knife! With a plan of her own, Song Zheng joins the assassin organization under the villain Qi Shili, only to realize that a pair of wolfish eyes seems to be watching her. “Young Master, why are you staring at me?” Qi Shili casually turns a page. “Who’s staring at you? Get back to sharpening your blade.” Years later, the big bad wolf finally reveals his sly smile. “A-Zheng, I… have a peculiar habit. I never part with my blade, and I sleep beside it.” (The hero is a big bad wolf and the heroine a little white rabbit at first. Later, the roles reverse. Happy ending. One-on-one romance, both untouched, both strong, with a strong heroine’s journey of growth and revenge.)
