Ke Lian had just returned from the battlefield when he was told that his fiancee, whom he had never met, had suffered a family tragedy. Her parents were both dead. Although she had inherited a fortune worth billions, she needed someone to look after her.
And so, the Imperial Marshal, who topped the Empire's Most Popular Men Among Women ranking, obeyed his father's wishes and married Du Xixi.
He had assumed Du Xixi was a delicate flower in need of protection. But could someone explain why the girl hacking away at snorting beasts with a cleaver needed protecting?
*
Du Xixi missed a step and ended up in the Star Era. She had no parents, only a fortune worth billions to inherit... Oh, and a supposedly handsome fiance she'd never actually met.
As the heir to a family of imperial chefs, Du Xixi looked at the rows of mecha displayed in her cheap husband's courtyard and decided that a cleaver suited her much better.
