The Golden Seal Behind the Scenes: A Scheme Within a Scheme in the Urban Palace

Lin Mei, daughter of a secretly wealthy family, disguises herself as an ordinary office worker to escape old family grudges. By chance, she activates the Behind-the-Scenes System: she can earn points by changing key figures’ fates and turning the tide through careful planning, then trade those points for resources such as connections, business strategy skills, and intelligence networks. Starting with helping her best friend deal with workplace sabotage, she is gradually drawn into the Gu Group’s succession battle, the intrigues behind a business marriage, and the counterattack of an old family enemy. As she manipulates public opinion, trades favors, and sets and springs traps behind the scenes, she not only uncovers the truth about her mother’s murder but also becomes the true power broker in the city’s arena of power, the “invisible hand” pulling the strings. In the end, she joins forces with Gu Yan, the evenly matched president of the Gu Group, to rewrite the fates of many and create a legendary power struggle of her own.
