It's gone under! It's gone under! The biggest assassin organization in the jianghu has gone bankrupt! The boss has vanished without a trace, leaving no body behind! Hidden martial arts manuals, gold and silver treasures, fine weapons, all forfei...
No, I mean, it's all been confiscated...
Ever since the righteous martial artists razed her hometown, Wu Jiu has asked herself three questions every morning:
What job am I doing today?
How much have I saved for retirement?
Are the flowers I planted still alive?
Luckily, her new boss has big ideas. Not only has she gathered this crew of human weapons back together, she's also launched a new kind of service business in the jianghu.
Escort work (watching the drama), package pickup (stealing things), information gathering (eavesdropping), recovering valuable property (finding a kitten). Work life is full of variety...
Only the last question needs worrying about.
The daily working life of a master flower-killer (former assassin) and her companions.
Reading guide:
1. No romance, told from the female lead's perspective. Everyone shares only friendship, family bonds, and complicated grudges.
2. A cozy, healing slice-of-life story, not a leveling-up saga. The protagonist only wants to retire and grow flowers.
3. Part of a series. You can read this without having read the earlier books.

Theme: I'd trade the sword in its case for a little boat, and return to the life of an old fisherman.
