The Republic's Most Well-Behaved Heiress: Everyone's Afraid She'll Be Exposed

In the thirteenth year of the Republic, Bai Qiyuan, the daughter of the Bai family in the capital, was famous for being sweet and well-behaved.

Delicate and soft, with a voice as light as a breeze, she could cough for half the night after being brushed by the wind. Everyone said she was a hothouse flower.

Who could have guessed that this flower was actually the top name on the underworld’s wanted list, a mysterious assassin known as “Black Shark”?

They said Black Shark dressed in black and was ruthless, and that a single shot from her could shake the entire Beiyang government.

Whoever could hire her could change their fate and turn the world upside down.

But no one knew that Black Shark actually loved wearing cheongsams, was afraid of pain, had a huge appetite, and loved to act cute...

All she wanted was to keep playing the good girl and live as a pampered young lady in Beiping. Unfortunately, fate had other plans.

Then Lu Yichuan, a stern and ruthless military governor fresh from the battlefield, took one look at her and set his sights on her.

On their wedding night, he tossed a stack of confidential files at her and asked, staring at her as he spoke each word:

“Are you Black Shark?”

Bai Qiyuan smiled innocently. “I can’t swim.”

Lu Yichuan smirked. “If you can’t swim, how did you jump into the Lan River three years ago and kill one of my deputy generals?”

From then on, the persona of “the Republic’s Sweetest Young Lady” fell apart once a day.

Her enemies went mad, the elders were dumbfounded, and the whole capital feared she would expose yet another secret.

Only Lu Yichuan shielded her behind him, smiling lazily.

“I can handle everyone here. She can just keep being my darling wife.”
