[Height difference | Beautiful, unhinged woman with PTSD | Powerful man who always has her back | Two powerhouses, mutual salvation, happy ending]
Trauma from Shen Wenyu’s childhood is etched into her bones. The slightest provocation makes her instinctively fight to kill, and everyone sees her as a madwoman and a weapon.
Only Zhou Jin, the man who holds all the power in Yero, isn’t afraid of her sharp edges. He accepts every moment she loses control and every act of violence without reservation.
His towering 190-centimeter frame is always there to shield her from harm:
When someone annoys her by offering a toast, he steps in and refuses it. When enemies torment her with piercing noise, he crushes the sound source on the spot. When the elders and his subordinates look down on women, he gives her a ring in front of everyone and places the power of life and death in her hands.
She is no dependent flower, either. Her extraordinary perception lets her anticipate every ambush. She single-handedly tears apart Sha Chai’s plot at a deadly banquet, and sees through every move made by her stepmother, Batuna, and the rebels.
Outsiders think he keeps a mad pet, but in truth, they are each other’s only refuge.
He bears every blade she turns on him; she eases the eternal loneliness of his solitary rule.
Their scars need not be erased, and they’ll face the darkness together. Once they’ve settled every old score, they’ll rule side by side and stay together until the end of their days.
