The General's Daughter Makes the First Move: Where Are You Running, Prince?

Ever since the time her life hung by a thread, Qin Zimo had understood one truth: “Everyone in the world pursues profit.” Apart from her maternal family, her two older brothers, and her mother, no one was truly sincere with her. But a barrage of open and hidden attacks once again taught her that living quietly in a sheltered corner would only make her a burden. Only by seizing power could she protect herself and those dear to her.

To change the precarious situation in which others held her at their mercy, she stopped hiding her abilities and chose to let them shine. After earning distinction on the frontier, she returned to the imperial capital as its sharpest sword, cutting down every selfish, treacherous monster wearing a human face.

With the desert at her back, she fought her way out of death's door countless times. She had tempered her heart until it was as hard as iron, yet she still couldn't help opening it to a man whose devotion was pure and wholehearted.

They stood by each other every step of the way. When she had finally risen to power and looked back, the scars on her body had become badges of honor, and everyone by her side was safe and well. Qin Zimo couldn't help thinking: perhaps this was the beginning of a happy life.
