Like an Old Friend Far Away
Her name was Leng Ren, the top assassin of the Tianji Pavilion. When she drew and struck with her knife, there was never the slightest hesitation.
In the autumn of the 23rd year of the Kaiwu era, she met a scholar named Shen Rongxi. He was a young master as gentle as jade, dressed in white like snow, with eyes full of tenderness whenever he looked at her. He loved her and promised her a happy married life, saying, "When the girl marries, may she bring harmony to her husband's family."
He also hated her. He hated that she had personally destroyed the prosperity of his life five years ago, and now betrayed him once again. Later, when he finally achieved a high position as he wished, he found that she had never betrayed him.
Peach blossoms would bloom again, but his Azhuo would never wake up. There were ninety thousand li of mountains, rivers, wind, and moon in this world, yet none of them was her.
