The Bandit's Little Wife

When she was fourteen, a young bandit from Yungui Mountain Stronghold insisted on taking her, an exceptionally ugly girl, as his bride.

Ye Chuwan trembled with nerves. “I-I’m only fourteen…”

“So?”

“I’m still a child…”

The young bandit’s gaze settled on a certain spot. “Yes, it is a little small.”

“…”

And so the young bandit kept her well fed and cared for, patiently waiting for her to grow up.

Little did he know that Ye Chuwan spent every day plotting her escape, until one day he caught her

“You lied to me?”

“No, I-I have a childhood sweetheart down the mountain, and we’re engaged. I wanted to go down and break it off so I wouldn’t, wouldn’t hold him up.”

The young bandit believed her.

Three months later, she broke her promise and never returned. Then the Western Ting Kingdom’s top general led his troops to suppress the bandits. The Yungui Mountain Stronghold was nearly wiped out, reduced to scorched earth.

A year later, rumors spread that on the night of the fourth daughter of the Prime Minister’s wedding, a thief stabbed her in the heart with a golden hairpin, and she died in her prime.

Ye Chuwan was reborn on the very day she was abducted to Yungui Mountain.

She watched seventeen-year-old Xiao Ming proudly showing off the wild boar he had hunted, and tears welled up in her eyes.

This time, she wouldn’t run away. She wouldn’t go down the mountain or return to the capital, and she wouldn’t seek revenge…

She would lead this band of bandits to greatness! No one would ever dare to mess with them again!

“Chief! I want to stay on Yungui Mountain forever. I’m willing to be your bride!”

Ye Chuwan stepped forward, wearing that same hideously ugly face.

But after a scoff, Xiao Ming ordered, “Throw that ugly freak down the mountain!”

“…”

-

Xiao Ming was reborn in the third year of Ye Chuwan’s desperate attempts to stay on Yungui Mountain.

That night, he remembered, the Murong family’s battle flags had been planted on every pile of corpses.
