[A destitute heroine who looks ugly but is kindhearted VS a bandit chief who is cold on the outside but warm within] [One-on-one, both pure, a healing romance]
She is the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Works.
But a birth defect left a crimson mark on her left cheek, earning her the name “A Gui.”
Her stepmother plots against her, ruining her reputation.
Driven from home while carrying a child of unknown parentage, she is left to wander from place to place.
He is the third prince of the Kuizhao Kingdom.
Since childhood, he has borne the stigma of having “killed his birth mother” and endured his father's cold indifference.
His appetite is far beyond ordinary, and the other princes and princesses mock him for it.
In a fit of anger, he leaves the imperial world behind and becomes the bandit chief of Mount Buzhou.
Fate brings A Gui and her son to his stronghold, where she becomes the cook who prepares his meals.
On her first day, she cooks three dishes and a soup, a normal-sized meal, only to watch him devour every last bite.
The next meal, she makes four dishes and a soup, but once again, not a crumb remains.
A Gui is secretly astonished, and from then on adds another dish to every meal.
Even when she serves ten dishes and a soup, he still clears the table without batting an eye.
“Could this man... be the reincarnation of Taotie?”
Unwilling to believe it, A Gui rolls up her sleeves and cooks twenty dishes in one go!
The bandit chief: “...”
He stares at the table laden with food, the corner of his mouth twitching.
Is this cook trying to insult him? Ten dishes would have been enough.
His attendant Duanwu: “...”
My lord, I don't think “enough” means what you think it means...
When the flames of war consume the golden age and conflict erupts everywhere,
he leaves the stronghold to cultivate himself, govern his family, rule the country, and bring peace to the world.
No matter how his station changes, from mountain king to emperor,
he always keeps that ugly cook by his side.
A Gui: If, in this life, someone would spare me sorrow and shield me from the storms, I would repay them with all my remaining years, never leaving them in life or death.
This is the fourth book I've followed by this author. I'm looking forward to the male lead discovering An'an's true identity soon. I love the lively and adorable An'an. She trains every day to become stronger and protect the female lead. And male lead, when will you truly understand your own feelings? ❤️ 😘😘😘😘
The book is very good; I especially love the emotional descriptions. It's a pity it's going to be discontinued.
I'm so upset! I really love this book, it's my favorite novel lately, and I love the setting. I've been following it every day, and it's so hard to hear it's going to stop updating 😭😭😭 Waaaaah, but I understand the author.
I'm looking forward to the male lead discovering that An'an is his son; you can already sense the difference in his feelings for the female lead. Please don't stop updating! I'm following the updates every day, I really love this book.
It's a great show. I hope the male lead finds out soon that the baby is his biological child.
The pacing is just right, the characters are vivid and relatable, and the camaraderie within the village is truly touching. Please keep updating, it will only get better and better! Xiaoshan's clumsy yet sincere love for the female lead is truly touching. Even though he's gone, I hope she can live a happy and fulfilling life from now on. 😢😢😢
The content is original, the plot is fast-paced, and the characters are well-developed. It's really super good; you can't find it in bookstores anymore.
It looks pretty good so far.
