The Yandere Male Lead Is a Master Actor

Shen Yan had just turned eighteen in the countryside when her shameless deadbeat father tried to force her to marry a sickly invalid.

For the sake of the only person who had ever cared for her, Old Master Shen, she reluctantly agreed for now, intending to make other plans later.

But as soon as she arrived in the county town, she ran right into the man: the sickly invalid said to bring death to his wives.

With a flurry of silver needles, Shen Yan made a grand entrance, ready to save the hero, only to trip and fall at the bandits’ feet, paying them a most extravagant New Year’s visit.

“...”

Xiao Junyue’s mouth twitched. He picked Shen Yan up and dealt with the bandits one-handed.

He raised an eyebrow at the woman in his arms. “You’re pretty capable. How about becoming my personal bodyguard?”

Shen Yan: “I’d sooner be your mother!”

Xiao Junyue brought out the black panther he kept. “Hmm?”

“...” Shen Yan hurriedly put on a fawning smile. “I mean, not just your bodyguard. I’d even be your mom’s bodyguard, hehe.”

Xiao Junyue gave a faint smile. “Then it’s settled. You’re my bodyguard for life.”
