[Blurb]:
The general's daughter, Zhong Shinian, is a bona fide woman with nothing going for her: no looks, no money, and no shame! Her most shameless dream in life is to conquer a man with her "jian" (sword)!
Here's the latest rundown on the man everyone's been talking about in the martial world for the past twenty years:
● Identity: From a top assassin organization in the Great Song, codename "Night Cat."
● Occupation: Elite assassin
● Age: Classified
● Likes: Fish
● Temperament: Severely fastidious
● M.O.: Mysterious and discreet
● Assets: Classified
● Ideal partner: Classified
● Difficulty of conquest: Hellishly high
● Friends' assessment: He's an outstanding assassin, but may not be boyfriend material.
Zhong Shinian waved a hand imperiously. "No problem. I have no looks or money, so I might not be girlfriend material either."
Martial-world onlookers: "Little girl, you haven't even gotten started, and you're already calling yourself his girlfriend? Where's your dignity?"
And so, when this woman with nothing going for her quickly embarked on the noble mission of conquering Night Cat, three new rumors spread throughout the martial world.
[First New Rumor]
During Zhong Shinian's first clash with Night Cat, he twisted her arms behind her back and pinned her against an alley wall. "Little prey, don't you dare follow a hunter again..."
His lips brushed her ear, his voice low and deep. "Or you'll really get yourself killed."
[Second New Rumor]
When Zhong Shinian crossed paths with Night Cat again, this cold-blooded feline actually rescued her from a pervert!
The way he looked at her was like a hunter eyeing his prey, with a temptation that made one's heart race.
[Third New Rumor (Unconfirmed!)]
According to eyewitnesses, during Zhong Shinian and Night Cat's third encounter, Night Cat seemed to be drunk, then forcibly planted a deep kiss on this woman with nothing going for her!!
Ever since these three new rumors broke, the entire martial world has been in an uproar!
What on earth could Zhong Shinian have done to conquer (or rather, take down) a man said to be hellishly difficult, step by step?
As it happened, the day after Zhong Shinian had completely won Night Cat over, one entry in his file was updated:
● Ideal partner: Someone with "nothing going for her," like Zhong Shinian.
Word has it that Night Cat himself requested the update...
Martial-world onlookers: "Aaaah, I've been hit by a whole load of couple PDA! What am I supposed to do about my girlish heart?!"
And so, the next day, many unmarried young women in the martial world started a trend of imitating the "nothing-going-for-her" type!
Sword-wielding young woman with a scruffy heart (herbivore type) vs. aloof, refined, and noble feline assassin (celibate type)
