A car accident sends Feng Qingran, a young modern doctor with a postdoctoral degree in traditional Chinese medicine, into the pages of an ancient novel she once read. There, she becomes a cannon-fodder character who shares her name and is destined to be a stepping stone for others, doomed to a miserable life.
In this life, in the fictional historical kingdom of Great Xia, she vows to change her tragic fate!
Step one: expose the scumbag’s true nature, join forces with her family to call off the engagement, and stay far away from him!
Step two: become stronger by learning martial arts so she can protect herself!
Step three: use her modern medical knowledge to benefit Great Xia. What? People in Great Xia don’t understand the wonders of acupuncture? Then she’ll use her dazzling acupuncture skills to show everyone its secrets!
Step four: Why is the aloof and untouchable First Prince from all those rumors so determined to stick by her? Can Feng Qingran, who has been single all her life in both lifetimes, withstand the prince’s relentless pursuit?
Feng Qingran doesn’t know what the future holds. Ever since she broke off her engagement with the scumbag, the story has taken a new turn.
As she faces the treacherous struggle for the throne and one conspiracy after another, where will she go from here…
Will she rise from the ashes like a phoenix, spread her wings across the heavens, and have even the stars for companions? Or will she watch her family perish and suffer a tragic death herself, just as she did in her previous life?
