After Flirting with Her Mortal Enemy, She Fled in Panic

In front of the person he loves, even an emperor can be a puppy!

Ever since she was little, dogs ran away when Zhu Qiao came near. Her greatest wish in life was to roam the martial world and become a legendary heroine like Guo Xiang. She never expected to wake up one day to find her family destroyed and herself reduced from a grand commandant's daughter to a convict's slave.

A conspiracy long in the making finally unfolded. After seven years of lying low, she returned under a new name to avenge her family's blood debt. She even went so far as to use her looks to seduce Xiao Yunting, the handsome eldest son of the Marquis of Nan'an.

Then one day, her identity was exposed and the truth came to light. Barefoot in the snow, she could go no farther. To her surprise, in the midst of the falling snow, he crouched in front of her and said, "Then let me carry you the rest of the way!"

Years later, the emperor went on campaign without a single woman by his side, yet summoned a young eunuch to attend him day and night. Seeing the disheveled bedding, the palace attendants whispered among themselves: Had His Majesty been away from the palace so long that he couldn't hold back and had suddenly decided to favor a young eunuch?

She leaned against him, smiling as she playfully teased, "Then Your Majesty can just think of me as a eunuch accompanying the army."

Looking at her face behind a man's mask, he let out a soft sigh and bent to kiss her.

"Fine. As long as it's really her underneath, the rest... doesn't matter."

(Both leads are each other's first and only partner. Happy ending.)

P.S. The heroine knows martial arts, is clever and beautiful, and is as cool as she is confident. She doesn't take anyone seriously, and her hands are stained with blood. The romance has some angst, mostly for the hero. Everyone's threshold for angst is different, so you'll have to judge for yourself!

The hero is the kind of man who, if you make him angry, will turn and leave in a huff. But give him one sweet treat and he'll come running right back to you.

Please add my upcoming novel, "Pick Up a Puppy and Make Him My Puppet," to your reading list.

Fantasy martial arts, humorous and lighthearted, with a focus on romance.

A proud, childish puppy × a cool, lonely black lotus.

On the eve of her wedding, Feng Qitong was betrayed by both her fiance and her half-sister, then imprisoned at the bottom of a sacred lake for five whole years. After finally escaping, she personally slaughtered her half-sister's entire family. But seriously wounded, she had no choice but to seek refuge with the Youlian Sect, regarded by the martial world as a demonic cult.

On her very first day there, however, a talkative young man saw her completely naked.

In a fit of anger, she knocked him off a cliff. She never imagined that he was actually Mo Changli, the High Priest who held the power of life and death over the Youlian Sect.

The wisteria flowers in Luoyang were in full bloom that day. Her fiance was marrying her half-sister, and he insisted on going to give them a piece of her mind. Instead, he fell into a river in a most undignified fashion and was chased into hiding by a flock of geese.

Hiding behind her, he kept glancing at her breathtaking profile. How strange. Why did he always end up looking so pathetic whenever he saw her, and why did he always feel so inexplicably nervous?

The feeling was both unfamiliar and familiar, as if it had happened before...

The first time they met, she undid his belt. He froze and asked if she had no shame.

The second time they met, she stripped him. He cursed her out, calling her a shameless hussy.

The third time, she went all the way and slept with him. But he only gazed at her with the bashfulness of a boy's first love and quietly asked, "Will you... take responsibility?"

That year's Qingming Festival, a light rain fell over Luoyang. She picked up a wisteria blossom and placed it in his hand, smiling sweetly. "A Li, I love no one else, so I'll give you this last wisteria blossom."

He said nothing. He simply tucked the blossom into her hair and murmured, "If you love this flower, then I love you."

(Both leads are faithful to each other. Happy ending.)
