A sweet-talking, gentle crybaby, a beautiful and pampered young lady of a noble house, and a cold-mouthed, ruthless, gloomy young assassin. Also known as: #Saving My Assassin Childhood Friend#
As the Nan'an Marquis's residence teeters on the brink of ruin, Yan Yingying, though the beloved, pampered darling of the household, must summon the courage to venture out alone and carry her family's hopes as she seeks refuge with her fiancé.
The only person accompanying the young lady is an assassin tasked with escorting her. Cold and aloof, ruthless and strange, he is both merciless and as beautiful as an immortal banished from heaven.
The girl trembles with fear all along the way, carefully trying to please him. After enduring countless hardships, she finally arrives safely. She bids the young man farewell with a sincere wish for his well-being, thinking they can each go their separate ways from now on.
Who could have guessed that her fiancé, the one on whom she had pinned all her hopes, already loved someone else, making it impossible to honor their engagement? Late into the night, the girl tosses and turns, burying her face in her pillow as she sobs. Unexpectedly, the young man's hard, cold voice comes from outside her window: "Want to do business? I can help you take the life of his lover."
Yingying: "What?!"
Unwilling to take someone else's beloved, the girl takes the initiative to break off the engagement and slip away. After many twists and turns, she decides to seek a new match. The young man traveling with her thinks it over for a long time, then parts his red lips and says, "I might consider this deal too. You can pay me later."
The girl grits her teeth, holding back the word that's about to spring from her mouth: "...Fine!"
The lonely young woman, experiencing love for the first time, eventually falls into its snare. As they grow intimate, she discovers that the young man is actually her childhood friend, and his father is the treacherous minister who brought disaster upon her entire family!
The girl is torn inside, filled with shock and uncertainty.
The young man, still unaware of the truth, toys with his dagger and casually asks the girl for a promise: "If you ever abandon me in this life, this dagger will be the end of us!"
A chill runs down her back, and her hair stands on end. The girl looks up at the young man. He gazes back at her with a smiling face, the dagger spinning in his hand so fast it becomes a blur, its cold gleam dazzling.

This little general is really annoying
It's pretty good, why doesn't anyone see it?
Is the farmer the male protagonist? 30 Years old?
I feel that the plot and characters are quite interesting, but they are too thin. I suggest that they can be expanded a bit (especially the character design of the second male lead and the early plot of rushing to the general's mansion). The writing style does need to be strengthened. If the author is a newbie, this level is still very good. Come on haha.
It warms my heart to see them. They are just two idiots. I hope fate will not set too many twists and turns for them.
The writing is pretty good, keep up the good work
I'm a little confused when I see this. What have those two people done wrong so far? They're a little unlucky.
Well written! Very touching description
It's beautiful, but why aren't many people watching it?
Is it updated every day? I don't dare to fall into the trap.
