[Cunning Little Fox Princess × Crown Prince with Maxed-Out Tea Skills]
Shen Hengwu spent thirty taels to buy a man.
He was covered in wounds, barely alive, and quite handsome.
She thought she’d gotten an incredible bargain.
But this man’s hand trembled when he served tea, yet never shook in a fight. He acted meek and fragile in front of her, then turned around and infuriated her suitors half to death.
“Your Highness bought me, so I belong to you,” he said with an innocent smile.
It wasn’t until a rainy night, when he took down six assassins by himself and turned to ask her,
“Had your fill of the show?”
that she realized the man she’d bought for thirty taels was the crown prince, who had faked his death and gone on the run.
He pretended to be frail; she pretended to be sickly.
He played his sweet-talking games; she met every move with one of her own.
He said: “Thirty taels, lifetime guarantee.”
Then he smiled. “You belong to me now, Your Highness.”
