Original title 入侵[向哨] by 龚心文

As an aggressive Guide who was hated by others, Lin Yuan had a fiancé that the country matched for her. Her fiancé had a prominent family background, was handsome and rich, polite and enviable. Why should she be assigned such an excellent partner? She didn't even pass the tea ceremony, and even got an awful grade in cooking.

"He won't be able to stand her sooner or later."

"That's true, they will end sooner or later."

After listening to such words a lot, Lin Yuan also felt that sooner or later she and Jiang Yangshuo would end. So when her fiance appeared in front of her with a gentle and lovely girl, she took off the engagement ring without saying a word, then threw the ring into the sewer in front of the two of them. Since then, Lin Yuan had lived a happy life, where the sky is high and the birds are flying, where the sea is wide and the fish is leaping.

Unexpectedly, after wandering for a few years, in a certain royal banquet, her ex-fiancé stopped her in a corner. He said with red eyes that he regretted all these years, and said that he was crazy about her. No, no, thank you, please don't. Lin Yuan, who was used to being wild, doesn't want to go back to the original life at all.

Her ex-fiance's face was ashen, and he gritted his teeth: "I don't mind your type, and I can tolerate your shortcomings as much as possible. You can't find a Sentinel who is more accommodating to you than me.

"So what? I already have a new Sentinel."

In order to completely get rid of the entanglement, Lin Yuan randomly picked up a name as a shield. She quickly went through the images of the Sentinels she had known on the battlefield over the years in her mind, and chose the name of a comrade who had a life-and-death friendship with her. She expected that he shouldn't mind. "He just happens to be the supporter type, which is just right for me, and he likes me very much, and he doesn't care about my various problems."

Just after seeing off her fiancé who was in despair, Lin Yuan turned around and met the man she had mentioned just now. The handsome face of this man, who killed countless enemies on the battlefield and made outstanding achievements, turned slightly red, turned his head, and he said in a low voice, "You... When did you know that I like you."

Lin Yuan: "..."

TL Review:

I like it, honestly. And it's so rare that I find CN novels that I like these days. Probably because this one is set in a whole 'nother world where there's actually people from many races here! That part actually makes me slightly more excited than having balanced main couple.

It's not perfect, of course, nothing's perfect. Our main leads are a bit OP, since the female lead is mentally strong but learn fighting quickly, and male lead, aside from his physical strength, is just so mentally strong unless it's against FL. There's a vague sense of FL being 'not like other girls' but later remedied by other guides starting to change because of her. Although I don't mind all these tropes much, since they still struggled against bigger villains. The story actually makes sense (how rare is that these days?) and I like the fact that heroine has character development and male platonic friends, while male lead has sympathy and his own motivation, not the -I am only kind to you living only for you- type.

The greatest part is the emphasis that no, FL doesn't need protection, she needs a partner that can work together with her. And ML acknowledge this! He said so himself and I adore him for it.

(Also I love FL's little tentacles so much and their interaction with ML's killer whale HAHA)

Warning! There is a vague sexual implication, but it's like in later half of the story, which is still a long while later since the story's around 150 chapters. It's just implication though, nothing explicit. It's actually really funny, guessing the implication through MTL as I did. FL having relevant knowledge and not a blushing innocent is also a nice touch. With this trope and that cover you'll probably guess it will be like that. I don't know, I don't read this trope much.

Give it a read if you're interested! I'll post the first five translated chapters here at this site and perhaps the rest if I have time.
