She is a top killer, codenamed Cold Blade. He has no relatives or friends in his life, he only knows how to kill, but does not know how to be loved. During the mission, he was betrayed by the organization and fell to his death in the ruins on a rainy night. When he opened his eyes again, he saw that it was Su Ling, the cowardly legitimate daughter who fell into the water and drowned in the Dajing Dynasty Yongning Hou Mansion.
The Hou Mansion is deep in the house, the stepmother is hypocritical, and the concubine is domineering. The cold blade suppressed the killing and murderous aura all over his body, pretending to be docile and dormant in the darkness. Not only did she want to collect a late debt for this body, but she also wanted to earn a way to survive in this strange world.
He is Xiao Heng, the regent. He has all the power in the government and the public. He has not been close to women for twenty-eight years. Cold-faced and taciturn, decisive in killing, he spent his whole life alone and carried thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, thinking that this life would be nothing more than this.
At the spring banquet, amidst the hustle and bustle of the crowd, he caught a glimpse of a pair of eyes in the dark - cold and silent, hiding the murderous aura that she tried so hard to conceal. When similar people meet, one glance catches the eye. He calmly blocked all the open and secret arrows for her, hiding his preference in the little things day after day. And she had lived in killing her whole life, never knowing what it was to be loved, but under his restrained approach, her heart that had been frozen for many years loosened inch by inch.
Fighting in the house and settling down in the court, the two of them went from testing to working together, from being on guard to being entrusted. She was the only warmth he wanted to get close to during his half-life of loneliness, and he was the only way back to her for the rest of his life.
The whole process is double clean, only in both directions. The female protagonist is not as decisive as a virgin in killing, and the male protagonist is extremely boring and doting on one person. Machiavellian romance runs in parallel, sweetness and abuse intertwine, and HE is complete.
The kingship of Cold Blade is yours for the rest of my life.
