A ridiculously strong heroine who'd rather fight than talk x a tsundere hero who'd rather talk than fight
Xie Wugou was the darling of the martial world from the moment she was born. She received a treasured black-iron saber as a full-month birthday gift, practiced a peerless martial art at five, and had grown tired of ruling the mountains by thirteen. So she headed to the capital with three little followers to make her mark.
But after half a year of hard work, her escort agency was nearly bankrupt. She had no choice but to sell the agency's escorts, along with herself, to the Sixi Restaurant.
When these skilled martial artists entered the restaurant, they became...
FOOD! DE-LIV-ER-Y! GUYS!
The restaurant's owner, Shen Guizhou, was also pretty handsome.
Who knew that making deliveries would end with her getting thrown in jail?
After hearing the charges against her, Xie Wugou gripped the iron bars and ground her teeth.
"Shen Guizhou, when I get out, I'll kill you! I'll scatter your ashes to the winds!"
A servant from the Shen family bowed. "Young Master, that girl surnamed Xie has put the blame back on you again. She says you deceived her affections and that you ordered her to do everything."
Shen Guizhou sipped his tea and smiled disdainfully. "Hah. Who'd believe that?"
The servant broke into a cold sweat. "Young Master, no one believed her at first. But then that girl surnamed Xie tearfully pulled open part of her clothes. There's a bite mark on her shoulder, and it matches the bite mark on the carrot you were gnawing on!"
Shen Guizhou: "..."
After Shen Guizhou went to tremendous lengths to get the two of them safely out, Xie Wugou slapped him and walked away with a carefree stride.
Shen Guizhou became the crown prince's study companion at seven. When the crown prince took the throne at seventeen, Shen helped him eliminate the remnants of the Three Princes' factions in the capital. Everything had gone smoothly for him, until he fell into the hands of one young woman.
After Xie Wugou left, Shen Guizhou tossed and turned, unable to forget her.
Three years later, Shen Guizhou was ordered to recruit a reclusive expert to lead the army, only to find that he was Xie Wugou's father. Then he was ordered to invite a master to serve the court, only to find that he was Xie Wugou's uncle. Finally, he was ordered to suppress bandits, only to discover that the bandit chief was Xie Wugou herself!
After being beaten up by the reclusive expert and the master one after another, Shen Guizhou fell to his knees as soon as he entered the cave. "I was wrong."
Xie Wugou hefted her great saber and gave him a cold smile. "Hah."
