Ever since she was five, Chu Lian had devoted herself to learning how to kill under her master's tutelage. She greeted the dawn dew at the hour of Mao and kept company with lamplight at midnight. Through changing seasons, wind, and rain, she trained relentlessly for more than ten years.
When she finally graduated, her hard work paid off: her very first assignment was a lucrative one.
The client was just a little strange. In all her life, she'd never met a fool who hired someone to kill him.
But that was none of her business. Money was king. She'd take any job.
Then the agreed-upon day of the killing arrived, and the client said there was no need to kill him after all. She could even keep the money for free.
Chu Lian: There's such a good deal?
As for the client suddenly insisting she become the Crown Princess...
Naturally, she took the money and ran. No need to entertain that nonsense!
Cold, ruthless, and cunning assassin x sweet-talking, flirtatious, shameless prince

Both leads are each other's first and only. The world has moderate martial arts and low-level magic, and the female lead is pretty formidable.
Theme: People have to keep moving forward
