A Killer's Retirement After Transmigrating into a Book

Jiang Zhi spent five years completing the clichéd, old-school transmigrate-into-a-book storyline, serving as a special-agent assassin to help the ruthless, scheming prince secure the position of crown prince.

Then she made a dramatic fake death and escaped, settling into a quiet life in a remote village.

Yuwei Village was mentioned by a passing NPC in the book, which was why it existed at all. On the first day Jiang Zhi moved there, she met a handsome young man who was exactly her type. His ox had gone missing. Jiang Zhi casually pointed in a direction, and he blushed. He even helped her move, fetch water, and tidy up her home.

So sweet, cute, and sensible. Much more interesting than that wicked, arrogant prince.

In her spare time, she taught Mu Tingyun martial arts, reading, and writing. She often teased him, telling him to call her big sister like the other children in the village, but he never did. He seemed obedient, yet he was a little stubborn.

The sun was warm, the breeze was gentle. Jiang Zhi lounged lazily on a hillside, basking in the sun and thinking that this was how an assassin should spend life after putting away her weapons.

All that fighting and killing was uncivilized.

Unfortunately, the original male lead had no intention of letting her go. Soon, assassins came after her, again and again. One of them even hurt her young boy, making her so furious that she went on a killing spree.

Later, the original male lead finally appeared and glared at her, demanding to know how she dared run away from him.

Jiang Zhi: Nangong Wenjing, do you know you're the most old-fashioned kind of male lead?

Nangong Wenjing: ?

Jiang Zhi: Go get me a glass of water.

Nangong Wenjing (coldly): Jiang Zhi, how dare you order me around!

Jiang Zhi turned around: Mu Tingyun, go get me a glass of water.

The young man came over with tea: Big sister, it's just the right temperature, and I used the tea leaves you like.

Jiang Zhi (spreading her hands): See?

Mini-scene:

Old-school male lead (furious): How does a dignified crown prince like me fall short of that boy?

Jiang Zhi (seriously): You're twenty-eight, he's eighteen. What do you think?

Bright and domineering big sister x sweet, scheming puppy-like younger man

Note:

1. A slice-of-life story, with an age gap of seven years and a younger male lead.

2. Happy ending, lighthearted comedy (probably).

3. Not a long story. It begins after the transmigrate-into-a-book plot is over.

4. The characters aren't perfect. I hope you'll enjoy the story, and readers are welcome to discuss it in a friendly way.

Theme: Create a wonderful life with a positive attitude.
