In the Name of the People: Gao Xiaoqin Reborn

When the wineglasses at Shanshui Manor reflected a pair of cold handcuffs, Gao Xiaoqin, carrying the Destiny Simulation System, was reborn in 2011, on the rainy night she first met Qi Tongwei. In her previous life, she had become a pawn in a game of power and sex. This time, armed with the System's golden finger, she swore to tear off the label of “venomous femme fatale” and transform Shanshui Group from a breeding ground for corrupt deals into a legitimate business empire.

The System's missions unfolded one after another: prevent Qi Tongwei from becoming a “kneeling lackey,” beat others to the punch during the Dafeng Factory crisis, outwit the villains at an intangible cultural heritage expo, and contend with the quantum trap laid by a consciousness from the future known as “D.” She used her business instincts to spot opportunities, her legal knowledge to unravel conspiracies, and even planted the seeds of “red genes” amid the power struggles of officialdom.

Under her guidance, Qi Tongwei gradually shed the mask of a schemer who was determined to “defy heaven and win by half a move,” becoming the “Masked Hero,” a reform-minded public figure who secretly cracked down on organized crime. The two went from allies of convenience to soulmates, never realizing that each step toward victory edged along the blade of a temporal paradox. The truth behind the bronze mask, the secrets of the 1962 fire, and the “D” Plan behind the System: layer upon layer of twists revealed a battle of consciousness spanning sixty years.

This is a story of using intelligence to rewrite fate, and a forbidden romance torn between power games and redemption. When Gao Xiaoqin takes the Forbes stage and Qi Tongwei becomes a champion of anti-corruption, they discover that their true enemy is not a corrupt syndicate, but the shadow of the future seeking to rewrite humanity's beliefs. The key to breaking the deadlock lies in the choice between “red genes” and “belief.”
