Shattered Dawnlight

A sharp-tongued maidservant X a cold, dark-and-white bodyguard

Lin Zhihan was the illustrious eldest daughter of the Lin family and the most beautiful woman in Wuzhou. She made a name for herself at a young age, and her admirers could form a line from Wuzhou all the way to the capital.

Oh, but the story's main character is Shen Yanqing. She's the maidservant of the illustrious eldest daughter of the Lin family, though being a maid isn't all easy. There's plenty of money and plenty of work. The two of them share their joys and hardships, traveling from Wuzhou to the capital, and then into the Eastern Palace...

But the greatest perk must be being able to arrange a marriage, right? Why, Fang Huaixu, the bodyguard tasked with protecting Lin Zhihan, has already fallen for her.

He was sent to protect Lin Zhihan by the crown prince. In a way, the two of them can even call the crown prince their matchmaker.

Fang Huaixu is a handsome man, but he seems to have nothing in his head.

When Shen Yanqing first tried to get his attention, she played the pipa where he was sure to pass. All he said was, "Who's slaughtering a chicken?" Shen Yanqing was so furious she smashed her pipa.

One day, Shen Yanqing asked him again, "If the crown prince and I fell into the water, who would you save first?"

Fang Huaixu: "Miss."

"Why?"

"The crown prince said that all I have to do now is protect Miss."

Shen Yanqing: Fang Huaixu, you blockhead!
