"Benefactor, don't be afraid. I'm Xiao Lu. From now on, I'll keep every danger away from you."
She's at the pinnacle of combat prowess, able to sweep away mutated beasts and vicious ability users with a flick of her hand. Alone, she protects their little house, a haven from the storm.
She's also sweet and easy to coax. A bag of potato chips is enough to cheer her up, and a bowl of hot dumplings has her obediently nuzzling against his shoulder.
While others awaken abilities in the apocalypse and fight to survive, hoard food at the risk of their lives, and wander in misery, Qian Liqiang has the strongest human-shaped bodyguard by his side. He shuts the door, lies flat, eats, and watches shows. His life is so peaceful it hardly seems real.
A fake rescue team covets Xiao Lu's power and breaks in to rob them? One slash of her light blade takes down every evildoer.
Ancient beings awaken from their underground seal, and the whole city stands on the brink of destruction? She burns her life force, ventures alone into the rift, and uses the pure energy of life to suppress the calamity's dark fog.
When people ask why Xiao Lu is willing to risk everything to protect an ordinary man with no abilities, the girl with emerald eyes clutches Qian Liqiang's sleeve. Her voice is earnest and soft:
"Back then, when the whole world turned a blind eye to the weak, you were the only one willing to reach out and save me. My life was yours from the start."
From one tiny act of kindness beneath a spiderweb to standing together through life and death in the apocalypse.
The road ahead stretches across thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. Once the dark fog clears, there will be snacks, hot meals, and a dragonfly girl. May every year be peaceful.
