Beauty Amid the Flames of War

In the thirteenth year of the Republic, the Su family estate, home to Fengtian's richest man, was drawn into a warlord conflict over a map of mineral deposits. The entire family was massacred in a single night. Orphan Su Ruoxue fled with a blood-written letter and, by a twist of fate, became the confidential secretary of Shen Mohan, a warlord of the Fengtian clique. Caught in the whirlpool of revenge and survival, she navigates the military, political, and commercial worlds alongside Shen Mohan, while secretly exchanging intelligence with Gu Mingyuan, a progressive young man who has returned from studying abroad, and covertly funding anti-Japanese volunteer forces. As the truth behind her family's massacre comes to light, and love clashes fiercely with faith, Su Ruoxue must choose amid the flames and smoke of war: will she become a blade of revenge in a chaotic age, or a spark that sets the people alight?
