Heartbeat Guardian: He Hands the Knife Then Falls

At age seven, Tang Xi Li witnessed her mother being forced to death by the An family. Growing up, she became a mercenary leader and returned to China for revenge. She orchestrated the An family's breakup with the Ji family, publicly humiliated her stepmother and step-sister, seized their goods, and systematically destroyed the An family's economy and reputation. During this time, she met Yong Zhi Xu multiple times. He was captivated by her charm and repeatedly came to her aid—offering wine, helping her avoid police trouble, supporting her at a banquet, and shielding her from gunfire. Their emotions gradually grew warmer.
