The Whole Sect Is Waiting for Me to Get a Raise and Buy Back My Freedom

[If you enjoy this, don't forget to save it!]

Kuandong dreamed of becoming an assassin-hero whose name would go down in history. She worked hard and swore to make the eradication of injustice her life's mission.

But reality often ran counter to her ideals. Because her sect was burdened with an enormous debt, Kuandong had to set aside all her ambitions and hopes for the future and become a lowly bodyguard to Fang Mingyou, the Duke of Qi.

The little bodyguard bent her back for a few bushels of rice. From then on, her good mood depended entirely on the words "pay raise."

But Fang Mingyou was not easy to get along with. In most people's eyes, he embodied arrogance and was the very picture of domineering conceit.

Though he was also a Duke of Qi, he was nowhere near as impressive as his elder brother. While people sighed over the latter's brief, brilliant rise, they never failed to mock the former.

Although the young Duke Fang spent money lavishly and paid a generous monthly salary, the thing Kuandong found absolutely unbearable was that he was actually enthusiastic about working overtime!

Kuandong protested to no avail and could only complain bitterly. Her greatest wish now was to save enough money to repay her debt as soon as possible. Everyone at the Herb Hall pulled together and tightened their belts, all to help Kuandong escape from the clutches of a certain someone.

Fang Mingyou gradually discovered that if he mastered the art of raising and lowering her pay, he could quickly and effectively cure every problem Kuandong developed without actually increasing her salary.

But as he kept adjusting it, he somehow wound up getting himself involved too.
