The Celestial Dragon Raised by a Villainess

Long Qinglian was a poor fisher girl. Until tonight, she had never dared to dream of marrying a young master of the Xie family of Yong'an Commandery.

After all, his attendants had kicked over her basket of fish that very day.

All she could do was crawl humbly on the ground, watching his carriage wheels crush the fish as they flopped about.

The wind lifted his carriage curtain. Amid the strong stench of fish, she caught a fleeting whiff of fragrance.

She dared to lift her head and saw him cover his nose with a handkerchief in disgust, then toss a handful of broken silver out the window.

It hit her right in the face.

Xie Yuxiang of Yong'an Commandery was a renowned gentleman, aloof and elegant, with a mind so keen it bordered on the uncanny, and peerless beauty.

That night, he was attacked and fell into the water. He disappeared without a trace.

And in a ramshackle hut on a small island

His hands were bound, and he was hung from a beam.

Long Qinglian's knife tip sliced through his clothes, gliding over his skin.

"I've admired you for a long time, Young Master Xie."

"I think of you day and night."

"But you're so far above me, and you've broken my heart..."

She cut the rope and watched him fall to the ground, her eyes brimming with a vicious smile.

"Come down."

"Come be someone just like me..."

A fish trampled by anyone who pleased. A dog crawling in the dirt.
