The Hard Life of a Hidden Guard

(Preorder, historical danmei: The Tragic Beauty of a Villain Who Defies Heaven)

Jiang Yufan died, betrayed by the brother and friend he trusted most.

Jiang Yufan lived again, reborn in the body of a hidden guard in an unknown dynasty.

But before Jiang Yufan died, he had already avenged himself. He had no regrets in this life, either. After finally getting to rest for good, he had little interest in living another life.

The heartbreaking part was that he couldn't end his own life. Every time he tried to check out, someone rescued him in the nick of time.

After enough attempts, Jiang Yufan understood that he probably couldn't manage to die by himself.

So Jiang Yufan threw himself into his training and fought tooth and nail to enter the most dangerous place in this unknown dynasty: the Shadow Pavilion.

With a reckless, death-defying drive, he outperformed every hidden guard and rose all the way to become their leader. His goal was to court death to his heart's content and reach paradise early.

But fate had other plans. His plan went awry when the crown prince suddenly appeared and specifically demanded that Jiang Yufan become his personal guard.

From then on, Jiang Yufan never got to touch a dangerous assignment.

Jiang Yufan: Your Highness, I am willing to take the enemy commander's head for you.

The Crown Prince: I sent Shadow One. Come hunting with me instead.

Jiang Yufan: Your Highness, we're ambushed here. Let me take care of them.

The Crown Prince: No need. We'll just take another route.

Jiang Yufan: Your Highness, the wine the Emperor bestowed is poisoned. Let me...

The Crown Prince: Yufan, you care about me so much. Do you have feelings for me?

Jiang Yufan: ??? Your Highness, don't make things up. I just want to check out!
