Starting after I finish The Man I Picked Up Won't Leave Me Alone~
Heiress x personal bodyguard || Schoolgirl x businessman
Song Anning had always been a little unlucky. At two years old, a high fever left her deaf in her right ear. Her mother took her abroad for treatment, but on the ship back home, they were caught in a shooting, and her mother was killed.
After finally making it to sixteen, a fortune-teller told her a major disaster would soon befall her.
As soon as Song Qingfeng heard, he went straight out to find his daughter a personal bodyguard.
The bodyguard was handsome and a great fighter, and Song Anning was very pleased with him.
He was a little boring, though.
Song Anning loved teasing him, but Qingzhou always stayed perfectly serious and never responded to her advances.
Eventually Song Anning grew tired of it. She thought perhaps he really was a stone that could never be warmed.
Xie Heng returned to China under the alias Qingzhou and became the Song family's heiress's personal bodyguard.
He didn't want to, but he had no choice.
When the mission was finally complete, the organization ordered him to withdraw.
Xie Heng thought he would feel relieved, but instead he felt empty inside.
Later, Xie Heng finally found her again, only to freeze when he saw her smiling at the man beside her.
It was the same smile she had once given only to him.
"I'm your bodyguard. Where else would I go if not by your side?"
"You can't leave me."
She thought he was the armor that kept her safe, but she never expected he would be the blade buried in her heart.
[Reading Guide]
1. The heroine is not powerful or a strong female lead. She grows over time and is relatively weak at first. Please don't read if that's not your thing.
2. Both leads are physically and emotionally faithful to each other. One-on-one romance, happy ending.
3. Set in an alternate Republican-era China.
4. The heroine is deaf in her right ear.
5. It's sort of a sweet romance... maybe.
Theme: Love your country.
