Since ancient times, gold has represented wealth, status, and power.
But it also brings betrayal, bloodshed, conspiracies, and murder.
Yin Wu inherits her father’s antique shop. Business is poor, and she barely makes ends meet, occasionally buying back gold and silver, too.
Ever since she bought a set of blood-soaked ancient gold coins, one short of a complete set, her life has been turned upside down.
The bathtub at home fills with blood;
A doll on the cabinet grows coins on its face;
A classmate’s father, who died long ago, walks woodenly up and down the hallway;
Beautiful faces and rotting bones, courage and cowardice, bloodstained temples ringing with shrill screams all crowd into her life.
Gold is wonderful. Even emperors are enthralled by it, though it burns their guts!
A money-loving heroine with the aura of a true dragon × a cool, aloof, sharp-tongued hero
