He is Xiao Yichen, the imposing regent of the Great Chu Dynasty, with sharp brows and bright eyes, cold and commanding. He manipulates the turbulent imperial court and holds the fate of the realm in his hands. But a sudden, mysterious flash of light shatters the peace of his princely manor and mercilessly sweeps him into a vortex of time and space, beginning an extraordinary journey into the modern world.
When Xiao Yichen first arrives in the modern era, he feels as though he has stumbled into a maze in another world. The towering buildings and streams of traffic leave him stunned and bewildered. Having always used gold and silver, he is at a loss when he sees people scanning codes to pay for food at roadside shops. The strange short-sleeved clothes worn by passersby leave him speechless. When he is hungry, cold, and all alone, the kind and lively media blogger Lin Yue shines into his world like a ray of light.
When Lin Yue first sees Xiao Yichen in his unusual ancient costume, she mistakes him for a dedicated cosplay fan. Out of kindness, she offers him a place to stay, brings him back to her apartment, gives him food, and teaches him how to fit into modern life. As they spend more time together, Xiao Yichen follows Lin Yue as she shows him the convenience of smartphones and the fun of shopping malls. He, in turn, reveals his remarkable calligraphy skills and excellent cooking. Feelings quietly bloom between them, and laughter fills every corner of the city, as if they have both forgotten that he comes from ancient times.
